To dive into this event, ensure you meet these requirements:

• Be at least Adventure Rank 20.

How To Play Shuyu’s Baffling Beetle Battle Bowl in Genshin Impact

The event centers around using an Onikabuto beetle in simulated battles within a Teapot at Mt. Aocang against various overworld enemies. This activity reflects the lore of *Genshin Impact*, where beetle battling is a cherished children's pastime.

The controls are simple: Forward, Back, and Jump. However, mastering the timing and managing your beetle's stamina are crucial. Stamina is consumed with every move, and holding a direction or executing a Piercing Strike consumes even more.

Here are the enemies you'll face in each of the five stages and strategies to defeat them:

• “Staff Master Who Only Uses Basic Horizontal Sweeps”: A straightforward Hilichurl. Aim for its head repeatedly and dodge the attack zone marked on the ground.
• “Staff Master Who Waves a Torch About Non-Stop”: A Hilichurl Berserker with a Pyro Slime. Focus on its head and target the Pyro Slime when it's about to be thrown for a quick victory.
• “Mumbly-Bumbly Red-Hot Mage”: A Pyro Abyss Mage. Interrupt its chant to take it down, then continue attacking to defeat it.
• “Bouncy, Energetic Mage Who’s Actually Freezing Cold”: A Cryo Abyss Mage. Use the same tactic as with the Pyro Abyss Mage to overcome it.
• “Big Guy Said to be Solid as a Mini Mountain”: A Stonehide Lawachurl. Swiftly dodge its attacks, continuously hit it, and use a Piercing Strike on the Geo Slime that appears for significant damage.
