While Genshin Impact enthusiasts eagerly anticipate the 5.4 update, set to launch in just a week, the current version presents an unexpected advantage: effortlessly defeating bosses with colossal health reserves. Intriguingly, this exploit hinges on the Hydro Traveler, a character often dismissed as one of the weakest in terms of DPS.
The mechanics of this exploit are deceptively straightforward, even for those of us not versed in the intricacies of programming. The key lies with the Hydro Traveler and their Elemental Burst. Additionally, you'll need Xiao Lanterns, which can be gathered during the Lantern Rite Festival. Here's how the magic unfolds: strategically position a specific quantity of Xiao Lanterns around a boss, unleash the Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst, and watch in amazement as the boss's health bar plummets dramatically.
This phenomenon occurs because the Elemental Burst inflicts additional AoE damage when it interacts with an object. With a hundred lanterns in play, the damage can soar into the millions.
It's highly probable that this exploit will be addressed in future updates, but for the time being, Genshin Impact offers a unique window for players to effortlessly conquer boss battles. Take advantage of this opportunity while it lasts!
