A player in Genshin Impact set out to defeat the boss Azhdaha using only level 1 Kequing. He shares his success on reddit.
The user NorseFTX showed on reddit how he set himself a challenge and mastered it. He describes himself as a “fake player in Genshin Impact” because he prefers to focus on missions of this nature rather than the Twisting Abyss.
Kequing is his favorite character, but he hasn’t drawn her since he started the game in 2020. That’s why he thought about how he could celebrate his pull when the time came: He wanted to defeat Azhdaha. Only with Kequing. Without leveling them. He wanted “to be worthy of being able to call Kequing his main,” he writes under the reddit thread. Now it was time.
What is this boss? Azhdaha, an ancient dragon, is a weekly boss in Liyue. He is considered one of the strongest opponents in Genshin Impact. It is unlocked by completing Zhongli’s second story quest.
Azhdaha uses different elements depending on the week. In this case, it was hydro and electric attacks. Since the player was not a high level, he encountered the boss at level 60 rather than at level 90.
His group consisted only of Kequing at level 1
NorseFTX faced Azhdaha and only had his Level 1 Kequing on the team, no other characters. But she was fully equipped for this, he writes in reddit.
What gear did he use? For his mission, the player equipped Kequing with a level 90 Black Sword. As artifacts, he chose Thundering Fury twice and Gladiator twice.
He used buff food, i.e. dishes that increase his defense, attack and crit rate, in many of his attempts, but not in the successful run: “I used food in many runs, but was not successful,” he writes .
How did he do it? On reddit, the player gives some tips to defeat Azhdaha:
He claims it took over 40 tries before Azhdaha was finally defeated. The last fight lasted about 30 minutes. Without his extensive knowledge of bosses, he probably would have needed significantly more attempts.
