Flock of vishaps of the depths в Genshin impact - an open world boss located in Encanomia. This is the first boss in the game, which consists of several opponents at once, in particular, two vishaps of the depths: Cryo and Electro. They simultaneously fight with the player, attacking both in a duet and separately, which undeniably brings a sense of novelty.
This boss at the first passages may seem quite difficult and cause a lot of problems. But after getting acquainted with his abilities and tactics of warfare, as well as determining countermeasures, it becomes much easier to win. Where to look for this enemy? What are his abilities? Who is better to take in a group? We will cover all this in this article.
Where to find the Pack of vishaps of the depths on the map and how to get to them
The entrance to the boss's lair is located on the island of Dainichi Mikoshi in the Enkanomiya region. It opens after the chain is completed Quests From Dusk to Dawn in Byakuyakoku, which brings the player to the region and, in fact, is its main storyline. A convenient teleport in the center of the island leads to a pair of vishaps. From it, run to the area marked with a triangle on the map, and boldly fall down. Before landing, remember to spread your wings or perform a fall kick. The fight will begin immediately.
Which characters to take to the Flock of vishaps of the depths (detachment)
To pass this boss, there are no special conditions for the composition of the group. But there are characters that will make it easier to pass. So among the core heroes, boosters are best suited - characters capable of doing a lot of damage in a short period of time. These are:
- Ningguang - c2 and especially c6 is capable of a very powerful procast.
- Hu Tao - Deals massive damage. It is considered top dd and not just for beautiful eyes. But, since she mostly plays on low HP, getting hit by the elemental sphere of vishaps will be her end (see below). Boss attacks and abilities). Play carefully.
- Arataki Itto - Geo character from version 2.3. Very powerful boost damage.
- Tartaglia - well-known bustovik. Especially when paired with Xiangling. Extremely powerful bond.
- Ayaka - her ult is a universally recognized eraser. Passes on enemies like a grater.
- Xiao - very powerful damage under ult.
- Eola - You have 7 seconds to max out your ult. Quite a boost.
Characters attacking at a distance will also be convenient:
- Yoimiya - very powerful single target damage.
- Ningguang - She also has strong ranged damage through alternating normal and charged attacks.
- Yanfei - Excellent ranged damage.
We also need good secondary damage dealers (there is never too much damage):
- Xiangling - the strongest pyro reactor. Huge ult damage.
- Xingqiu - the most powerful hydro reactor. Also excellent elemental explosion damage.
- Raiden - good extra damage. In addition, there is also its own boost damage.
- Fischl - Huge additional damage from a raven.
- Mona - extremely useful for boosting damage ult.
- Bennett - he himself does not attack so much, but he has an excellent buff on attack power. Also, it can heal.
- Sarah - there is damage. But in general, it is needed for a buff on attack power.
During the battles with vishaps, there are moments when it is convenient to hit them during their attack. To implement this, it is best to use a shield. Suitable Heroes:
- Zhongli - if we are talking about shields, then there is still no one better than him.
- Dione - a good shield man, plus a part-time healer.
- Thoma - a good shield, but it needs to be dispersed and maintained.
Best Builds
| Character 1 | Character 2 | Character 3 | Character 4 | Features |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |  |  |  | Geo group with an additional Burstman in the person of Raiden. All complement each other perfectly. |
 |  |  |  | Eimiya and Fischl, and even under the buff for mastery of the elements, are a very strong couple. And if Fischl c6, then generally crazy. Tom. Zhongli is certainly simpler and better. But he is still 5 *, and you can’t shove him everywhere at all? |
 |  |  |  | Based on Ayaka procasts. Although she beats quite decently from the hand. Xiangling for steam and damage. Kazuha buffs elemental damage. Although it can be replaced with sucrose. |
 | | | | Pretty standard group, but instead of the usual Bennett, grandfather would be better here. |
 |  | | | Another very standard group. If Hu Tao has Dragon Storm in his hands, then Kazuha would be preferable instead of Sucrose. Also, if there is Zhong, then he will be better than Tom. |
Budget Team
| Character 1 | Character 2 | Character 3 | Character 4 | Features |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 |  | |  | Budget group option. Pretty good damage. There are shields, albeit weak ones. |

Attacks and abilities of the boss Flock of vishaps of the depths
- elemental sphere. This is perhaps the most dangerous ability of vishaps. Absorbs energy. If it is not enough, then it deals very high damage, which the shield also ignores. You can dodge with a jerk, the speed of the sphere is not great. It is with this attack that the battle usually begins.
- duet attack. Vishaps jump to the opposite (usually) side of the arena and cast a joint attack. After a short pause, they release a continuous barrage of Cryo and Electro projectiles at the player. The damage separately from each is not very large, but there are many of them. However, Zhongli's HP shield is able to withstand the entire attack. Under the cover of a shield, this is a good moment to attack both vishaps at once. Also, often, this will be the second attack of the boss.
- Circle Attack (Cryo only). Frostbite somersaults towards the character. Upon completion, swipe a large area with its tail. Avoiding is difficult, but possible. Damage is decent.
- deep dive. Using their elemental energy to dive right into the surface of the arena, vishaps are able to move quickly towards the player.
- Melee (Cryo only). Frostbite performs a series of 3 melee attacks. The final blow deals area damage. The boss's only physical attack.
- Elemental Arena. Vishap raises his tail up and after a short time plunges it into the arena, creating a large radius field. Inside the area, attacks with the corresponding element constantly occur. The damage is not too big, but it is better not to be in the field without a shield.
- Vishap turret (Electro only). Thundermouth jumps onto one of the walls at the edges of the arena, and then from there constantly bombards the player with elemental spheres. These areas are easy to miss, especially if you decide to fight Krio Vishap.
- Electro Projectile (Electro only). After a short cast, Thunderglot fires an Electro projectile at the player. The cast looks intimidating, but in reality the damage is not great. Can be easily dodged.
- Posthumous duet. When the player defeats one of the vishaps, they jump to the center of the arena and, after a short pause, their tails grapple and release two elemental beams in opposite directions. Ray damage is not fatal. If you successfully stand up, then you can not evade.
- Posthumous volleys. The defeated vishap jumps into the lake and begins to swim around the arena, periodically firing 3 projectiles of the corresponding element at the player.
How to defeat the Flock of vishaps of the depths
During and after the first attack, we simply expect the vishaps to jump. We naturally avoid it. But then take cover with a shield and attack both opponents. Also, instead of a shield, you can be in a healing field (note: Bennett's ult, etc.), if the healing power is sufficient.
Then the vishaps will be on the field for some time together and randomly use their attacks. Just watch them and try to deal damage whenever possible. Don't get hit by elemental spheres.
At some point, Electro Vishap will jump onto the wall and start shooting the player with elemental bolts. You can dodge the orbs and keep attacking the enemy's Cryo, or destroy the wall that the Electro Vishap is on. The second option is more preferable, since the enemy will fall on his back and will be incapacitated for a long time. The wall is best broken with two-handed weapons or Geo attacks.
Also, while you are attacking an immobilized enemy, the second vishap will come up, which can make it possible to hit both at the same time. But don't get carried away too much - beware of the opponent's Cryo sphere.
After the death of one of the vishaps, the boss will perform a posthumous duet. Dodging the beams is easy if you stand between enemies. Then it remains only to deal with the latter. The fight will become easier as you will only have to fight one opponent. And the volley of shells, which will be fired by the “dead” vishap, does not pose a particularly big threat.
