Similar to any other world bosses in Genshin Impact, the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss drops a boss character ascension material called Dragonheir’s False Fin that you need to ascend characters like Shenhe. 

If you have just entered Enkanomiya, unlocking and finding the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss arena is a daunting task. Thankfully, we already have a detailed guide on how you can unlock the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss arena.

That aside, we have prepared a handy Genshin Impact guide that shares the exact location of the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss arena and a few tips on how you can defeat them. 

Bathysmal Vishap Herd Boss Location

The Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss arena is located at Dainichi Mikoshi—the artificial sun of Enkanomiya.

Once you have unlocked the boss, the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss icon will appear on your game map. You can use the above screenshot as a reference to get hold of the exact location of the boss—assuming you haven’t completed the introductory questline, The Subterranean Trials of Drake and Serpent quest. 

How to Defeat Bathysmal Vishap Herd 

To defeat the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss, we recommend that you take a DPS unit, a character with Shield ability (Geo users will work too), a Healer, and a battery (a playable character who can generate a ton of energy).

The Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss can drain your energy or health (if you don’t have enough energy) using their Cleansing Shower attack. We recommend players look out when Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss is forming a purple orb. If you see it, run. 

Another attack that you have to dodge and that you can easily avoid by running around the arena is Spike Field. One of the Vishaps will plug his tail in the ground and form a Spike Field—as soon as you see the Vishap plug his tail in-ground, run away.

The Spinning Sweep attack of the Bathysmal Vishap Herd boss will deal AoE Cryo DMG or AoE Electro DMG. 

When you defeat one of the two Vishaps, the defeated one will jump into the water and use a Critical Assist attack where he launches three homing shards dealing Cryo DMG or Electro DMG on hit. Dodge it or shield it, your choice.  

While you are attacking the boss throughout the fight, keep a lookout when one of the Vishaps jumps and sits on the broken walls. The walls are Geo constructs, and you can break them to stagger the Vishap.

That’s it for now. Make sure to check out our coverage on the Genshin Impact version 2.4 update.
