The Stygian Onslaught challenge in Genshin Impact consists of three Battlefield stages. The highlight of the challenge is not only the Primogems reward but also the Dust of Enlightenment item. To get the rewards completely, players must consider Stygian Onslaught team comps in Genshin Impact to defeat all the stages.

  • Normal
  • Advancing
  • Hard
  • Menacing

Battlefield 1 - Hydro Tulpa

The Battlefield 1 stage in the Stygian Onslaught event of Genshin Impact has the Hydro Tulpa boss. The boss summons Half-Tulpas periodically, and if it manages to absorb the Half-Tulpa, the boss will heal itself. Beating the Half-Tulpa demands Elemental reactions, with Freeze being the best option.

Skirk Build Guide In Genshin Impact

Skirk is a Cryo-Sword character in Genshin Impact who works around Normal Attack and large Burst DMG.

At Fearless level and above, the Hydro Tulpa creates a shield at an interval. Here, players must deal as much DMG as possible to destroy the Ward. Any kind of DMG or reactions work; what matters is dealing as much damage as possible. Failing to destroy the Ward will guarantee instant death for the active character.

The best team comp for the Hydro Tulpa boss in the Stygian Onslaught is Pyro team, Bloom team, and Hyperbloom team in Genshin Impact.

There are two ways to beat the Secret Source Automaton: Overseer Device in Genshin Impact:

  • Focus on dealing Cryo DMG to reduce Flow Momentum, in which the boss will stop attacking, and All RES is decreased.
  • Use a character with Nightsoul's Blessing to trigger Forced Counterstrike, in which the boss deals damage, but All RES is decreased.

In Fearless stage and above, the boss loses less Flow Momentum from Cryo DMG, and deals more DMG during Forced Counterstrike.

Dire Stage Team Comp (Stygian Onslaught Event) In Genshin Impact

Dire Recommendation (Stygian Onslaught Event) In Genshin Impact

The Dire level in the Stygian Onslaught challenge in Genshin Impact is not viable for most F2P players due to how tanky the boss is. With only a 120s timer, players can only complete the Dire stage with high-investment characters, like having high weapon Refinement or high character Constellation. Players can consider the challenge with C2R1 characters, but completion ideally requires C3R3.

Ineffa needs to have offensive stats like ATK and Crit from her weapons in Genshin Impact.

The final reward, which requires players to complete all three stages in a total of 180 seconds, is meant as a DPS check for spenders with C6R5 units. Thankfully, the weapon skin rewards from Stygian Onslaught are not permanent, which means F2P players won't miss out on anything.

Players with high investment characters can consider the following Dire recommendation for Stygian Onslaught event in Genshin Impact:
