Genshin Impact has plenty of elemental bosses. This guide will help you defeat the Electro Hypostasis in Genshin Impact.
The Electro Hypostasis is a Normal Boss and one of the elemental Hypostases in Genshin Impact. It resembles a big cube with a luminous core in the center, and it cannot be damaged while its shell is intact; only when the core is exposed by itself can it be damaged. When beaten, the player must consume 40 Original Resin in order to claim the rewards, which include Artifacts and Character Ascension Material for Electro characters. The Electro Hypostasis takes 3 minutes to respawn. Here is our Complete Electro Hypostasis Guide.
Code Name – Aleph. A high-purity Electro entity. Elemental hypostases are the highest forms of elemental structures, usually formed either at a location bursting with elemental energy or at a clogged ley line. Elemental hypostases have developed defensive mechanisms based on their elemental attributes.

Best Characters to Defeat Electro Hypotasis
The Electro Hypostasis is the physical manifestation of Electro, hence any attack on it will result in an Electro-based reaction. Electro characters like Fischl, Beidou, Raiden Shogun and Keqing should be avoided because their attacks have little effect on this boss. Instead, bring characters who can benefit from the Overloaded or Superconduct reactions, such as Diluc, Klee, Yanfei, Hu Tao, Ganyu, Kamisato Ayaka, or Chongyun.

Electro Hypostasis Attack Patterns and How to Beat
Only when the Electro Hypostasis’ core is revealed will it be damaged. The boss will utilize numerous Electro attacks before revealing its center. Stay close to this boss and evade its attacks, then strike the core once it’s exposed. After a few repetitions, the boss will be defeated. Let’s take a look at what each of the Electro Hypostasis attacks does and how to avoid it.
Missiles – Flies into the air and forms a rhombus with its shell pieces, firing two each for a total of four attacks, dealing Electro DMG on hit. Move around to dodge (can be dodged without dashing). The core will be exposed during this attack.
Clap – Quickly flies next to the player and forms a large wall, which folds in a “clapping” motion very quickly, dealing Electro DMG in an area in front of the wall. Dash to dodge.
Rock, Scissors, Paper – Flies next to the player and turns into a giant fist, punching in the player’s direction. Then, turns into giant scissors and deals damage in a “cutting” motion. Finally, turns into a giant hand and slaps the ground in front of it. Sometimes only performs 1 or 2 of the attacks, but will always perform them in the given order. Each attack deals heavy AoE Electro DMG. Dash or move in a circle behind the boss to dodge.
Drill – Turns into a giant drill and spins across the arena, dealing continuous Electro DMG upon contact. Move sideways to dodge.
Tremors – Moves to the center of the arena and forms a spinning dome formation with its shell while sending out many small waves of shell pieces, dealing Electro DMG on hit. Weave between the waves to dodge.
Cage – Sends shell pieces into the sky and rains them down in an octagon formation around the player, trapping them, before raining lightning in the cage, dealing AoE Electro DMG. The core will be exposed during this attack. Dash toward the first pillar, and then out of the cage before the complete cage is formed. The pillars can also be destroyed using elemental reactions as a means of escape. This attack is usually performed only when the player takes too long to defeat the Electro Hypostasis.
Rotating Lasers – Forms a ring around its core with its shell pieces and fires lasers out in 4 directions. The ring will then rotate, the lasers moving with it, dealing Electro DMG on hit. When the lasers turn off, the shell pieces quickly converge on the core, dealing Electro DMG. Sprint in a circle close to the ring, or dash through the lasers to dodge them. Alternatively, stand inside the ring to dodge the lasers, but make sure to leave the ring before the pieces converge (indicated by the ground rune disappearing). The core will be exposed during this attack, allowing the player to safely continue damaging the Hypostasis for a duration.
Rebirth – When HP is low (approx. 5%), teleports to the center of the arena and forms 3 Electro Prisms, which can only be damaged using elemental reactions. After 15 seconds, absorbs the Prisms and heals for 15%/35%/50% of its HP for 1/2/3 prisms absorbed. If a Prism is destroyed, it does not add to the healing and does not respawn next time the Electro Hypostasis uses Rebirth. When the player destroys all three Electro Prisms, the Electro Hypostasis dies immediately.
Electro Hypostasis Artifacts Rewards
Electro Hypostasis Rewards
The Electro Hypostasis, like other bosses in Genshin Impact, requires 40 Original Resin to unlock its rewards. You’ll get Electro Character Ascension Materials, Lightning Prisms, and Artifacts from the Berserker, Instructor, Lucky Dog, Gladiator’s Finale, Wanderer’s Troupe, and Prayers for Wisdom sets if you do so.
The majority of Electro Hypostasis attacks are simple to avoid. Because it is an elemental boss made entirely of Electro energy, all of its attacks do Electro damage, and it is electro-infused at all times. At the end of the fight, Pyro and Cryo are advised for destroying the Electro particles.
