In this video, I beat the Ruin Serpent without taking damage.

The Ruin Serpent is a new world boss introduced in the Genshin Impact 2.6 update. The boss is in the Serpent's Cave area of The Chasm: Underground Mines, which needs quest progress to access.

As a whole, this boss is easy. Simply stay behind it at a small distance away and you will dodge most of its attacks. The trouble comes with the vortex move and its requirement of having at LEAST a LEVEL 2 Lumenstone Adjuvant. Without a Level 2 Lumenstone Adjuvant, you cannot purify the Oozing Concretions that it spawns and uses for attacks. The vortex move is simple to dodge as long as you understand what to look out for. Whenever it is finished doing its opening attack, which can either be a dash into a tail slam or a rolling cone attack, it will either follow up with another one of those attacks, or it will burrow into the ground. If it burrows into the ground, begin sprinting to the complete other side of the arena once you see the drill tail lift up out of the ground. Otherwise, if it does another attack, you are safe.

You can get the Ouroborous achievement by purifying one of the Oozing Concretions while it is charging up its attacks, which I demonstrate in the video.

MANDATORY UNITS:
Lowkey a claymore unit since the rocks are hard to break, but a Level 2 Lumenstone Adjuvant gadget is highly recommended

RECOMMENDED UNITS:
Literally anyone. He is not immune to anything. Bring someone with fast burst damage though since his damage phases are short.

Geo Traveller (F2P + High Damage)
Amber (F2P + Wild DPS)
Xiangling (F2P + Wild DPS)
Noelle (F2P + Claymore unit + Shield)

Xingqiu (Great Support)
Bennett (Great Support)

Diluc (Good Damage)
Arataki Itto (Insane Damage)
Zhongli (Shield)
Hutao (Insane Damage)

MAYBE DON'T BRING THESE UNITS:
None.



I beat my first Ruin Serpent at AR 50

    The problem I have with Ruin Serpent is not that it kills me, is that it takes ages for me to kill it. My characters are good with what I can get and have. Turns out my issue was how I was using the Lumenstone
  • @the7guy
    You are like the Khan Academy of Genshin. Thank you
  • @d2boysg
    Hoyoverse needs a "How to beat Sun Wei" guide. LOL
  • thank you so much for ALL your tutorials, I've played genshin for about 6 months and I've been absolutely terrified of electro hypostasis! thanks to you I know how to fight it! and all the other bosses too, thank you so much, you made my game a whole lot easier! :D YOU DESERVE A WHOLE LOT FOLLOWERS!!!
  • Just went back to genshin after a few months of hiatus, and the new bosses seems very terrifying to me. Your guides helps a lot on getting me up on my feet again. You've earned a new subscriber
  • @aki_4191
    I'm nervous to begin fighting this but thank you so much for the tips
  • @kapoios5335
    No matter how good your 4-star builds are compared to my trash 5-star ones you still give me confidence do defeat him thanks to your awesome strategies!!
  • Every time HoYoverse releases a new content update with a new boss, I literally sit back and wait for this man to post his guides. Actually so helpful. Not to mention I am also a fan of geo traveler so it's always a pleasure to see his elemental skill do like 10k damage. Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssh
  • @rin8310
    ignored this boss until i got yelan recently. Thanks for the guide! Super helpful and explanatory
  • @Ziggo666
    I've only been playing this game for about a month now. I'm adept at fighting but videos like this are super helpful as you are explaining what the steps are and how to do it. As well as what the interactions are and how the mechanics work. For that you have a follow from me. I'm only AR 35 so this fight should be fun with my level 50s.
  • @adamtaurus7013
    Good news here, Sun Tzu Wei! That worm can't be in abyss due to + ooze attacks requiring the special tool to purify + Purify oozes weaken it unlike pma. -Updated: It's in abyss 2.8 😡
  • I use Fischl & Xiangling's skill first, followed by Ayato's skill. Barbara is back up for healing. This is one of the easier boss fights. Good luck farming for Yelan. Hopefully you have enough water crystals saved and you're hunting for magic conches.
  • Ive watched some of your videos and they get me out of sticky situations. You give party setups, dont waste time with pointless chatter and clearly describe all the boss phases and how to deal with them. You videos are great!
  • I already hate this boss. Was going good, got him to around 20% and then the serpent did that spinning/sweeping move. Wasn't able to make to dodge in time and the attack knocked me out of the arena despite not being on the edge and when I returned, the boss regenerated all its health because I take it that the game thought I had left the fight... Honestly not a bad fight but first impressions are everything. Also great guide.
  • @dontworry3343
    YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER!! I ALWAYS GO TO YOUR CHANNEL BC YOU EXPLAIN IT SO GOOD AND DO IT WITH THE BEGINNING CHARACTERS
  • @MO0NL0V3R
