Wicked Genshin Impact bug allows you to deal terrible, terrible damage to bosses

Genshin Impact players eagerly awaiting the 5.4 update can currently exploit a surprising tactic to effortlessly defeat even the toughest bosses. This unexpected strategy utilizes the Hydro Traveler, a character often deemed a weak DPS option, to dramatically reduce enemy health.

The method involves a simple yet effective interaction. Players strategically position a large number of Xiao Lanterns (obtained during the Lantern Rite Festival) near the boss. Activating the Hydro Traveler's Elemental Burst near these lanterns triggers a significant increase in AoE damage, potentially reaching millions with a sufficient number of lanterns. This amplified damage drastically depletes the boss's health bar.

While this exploit is undoubtedly a temporary advantage, it currently provides a remarkably easy way to conquer challenging boss encounters. Expect this strategy to be patched in a future update.
