Although it has a lot of health, the boss is not difficult. In addition, there are specific characters that make the fight much easier.

How to defeat the secret source automaton

Needed to upgrade Xilonen

The secret source automaton has three forms of attack. It will fire two rotating beams that slowly collapse and cause an explosion. The boss will then fire three orbital barrages down the track towards your character’s location. Finally, the Secret Source Automaton creates two pillars and charges a powerful attack. You must climb on top of each other and destroy the devices. This can only be done with specific Natlan characters. Since everyone has her for free, kachina in Genshin Impact Should always be on your team for this phase. Xilonen is also able to climb the pillars with her skill.

Sun woe YouTube shows that the world boss can easily be defeated with free-to-play units. He cried Traveler (Geo), Amber, Kachina and Xiangling in the showcase. This uses the buff given by double Geo and Pyro units on the same team. As long as you know the secret source automaton’s attack patterns, the fight is just a matter of depleting his health bar. Some great teams for this fight include:

I personally defeated this boss for the first time using kachina, kokomi, rosaria and diluk. For this fight, you want to make sure to have constant elemental reactions and burst DPS. Although not necessary, this will ensure that the boss fight is over as quickly as possible, and free up more time to farm materials.

While Kachina and Xylon are made for this boss fight, you can achieve these devices through other methods of gaining height. You only have a short time before the secret source automaton launches its charged attack and instantly kills your active character. Kazuha, Jongly, Albedo, VentiAnd Wanderer in Genshin Impact Can all reach the top of the pillars. Once defeated, you will receive these Gold-inscribed secret source cores Needed for Xilonen’s Ascension.

Since players only have 200 original resin each day, there is a limited-time event that will help. By completing the Tribal Chronicles: Children of Echoes Within the first couple of weeks of patch 5.1’s release, players will get 60 Primogems, Nine Prithiva topaz fragments, Six gold-inscribed secret source cores, 30 brilliant chrysanthemum, 12 Warrior’s Metal WhistleAnd 15 Sentry’s wooden whistle. All of these are Xilonen’s Ascension Materials. Although this will not be enough to get you to a high level, all of these reduce the collection time significantly. Players can collect the last three materials by exploring Natlan Genshin impact when your original resin is spent for the day.
