Boss encounters are a staple for high-level play within the world of Genshin Impact, especially when playing Genshin Impact in co-op. Taking these enemies on can be incredibly difficult, even with a full team of players, and will require a fair amount of coordination and planning before even stepping into the arena. And the most important thing that players can do before beginning a boss encounter with their friends is to decide what Elements they need to bring with them.
Players that are familiar with Genshin Impact know that Elements play a huge role within the game’s combat, and as such should be the first thing they should consider before hopping into a major boss fight. By combining different Elemental types together, Elemental Reactions occur causing major detrimental effects on the target. For example, using a Electro ability on an enemy affected by Hydro will cause them to become Electro-Charged, dealing constant Electro damage over time.
While it might be difficult for Genshin Impact beginners to determine what exactly each Reaction does, it’s worth pointing out that any Reaction that players can provoke will be helpful in the heat of combat. That being said, the overall easiest way to remember what types of Reactions will occur is to think about how these Elements would work in real life. Fire will melt ice, water will conduct electricity, and water will vaporize fire.
Before jumping into the Genshin Impact boss fights themselves, there is one more item that is important to discuss and that is the role of Anemo and Geo characters. While these characters are neutral to all of the Elements, their abilities are by far the most versatile. Anmo characters (like the starting character and Venti) provide the Swirl Reaction, attaching themselves to the first Element they come in contact with and spreading it around the battlefield in order to provide more opportunities for devastating Reactions.
Geo characters (like Noelle and Ningguang) can create the Crystalize Reaction, taking the first Element it touches and creating an Elemental Shield for themselves and allies, allowing them to take less damage from the corresponding Element. So having a pocket Anemo or Geo character in a party could come in clutch in these encounters. Now with all of this being said, here are the current 6 normal world bosses, what Element they champion, and what the best counters for it are.

Counters: Pyro, Hydro, Cryo
Element: Anemo

Element: Cryo
