In Short
  • Chimeric Winged Lion can be found north of Sretomorozsk, past the Hunter's Cabin.
  • The boss is weak to Stellar Glimmer reactions. Stellar Swirl is the best reaction against it.
  • Chimeric Winged Lion wields two different elements, Electro and Anemo, and deals very serious damage with both.

Genshin Impact 7.0 adds many things to the game, including many new bosses. The Chimeric Winged boss is newly added to the game in the 7.0 update, and it is quite strong. The boss wields dual elements, can shoot lasers, and is very mobile on top of all that. Here is a complete guide on Genshin Impact Chimeric Winged Lion, including its location and steps on how to defeat it.

The Chimeric Winged Lion is located north of Sretomorozsk, past the Hunter’s Cabin, in an open field. Sretomorozsk city is the first major Snezhnaya city you will come across in Genshin Impact 7.0. Simply start heading North from it to reach the Chimeric Winged Lion boss in Genshin Impact. There will be a teleport point right outside the boss area, which will help you teleport to it faster.

How to Beat Chimeric Winged Lion in Genshin Impact

Similar to Immortal Construct, the Genshin Impact Chimeric Winged Lion boss is also particularly mobile, paired with very high-damage output attacks. Here is a quick guide on how to beat Chimeric Winged Lion:

1. Two Phases

Chimeric Winged Lion has two distinct phases. In the first phase, it will use Electro attacks. This phase will have electric homing missiles, an electric plunge attack, and an electric ground slam attack. Most of its attacks can be dodged by sprinting away. For its ground slam attack, you can jump during the AoE burst to avoid it.

In the second phase, the boss will shift to Anemo attacks instead. Here, it will shoot Anemo missiles and also do a breath attack of both Anemo and Electro at the same time. This attack will deal a ton of damage, so jump to avoid it.

  • Chimeric Winged Lion Genshin Impact Snezhnaya Anemo phase
  • Genshin Impact Chimeric Winged Lion laser breath attack Snezhnaya

2. Break Shield

To deal damage to the Chimeric Winged Lion and to send it to phase two, players will have to break its Electro shield. This can be done using elemental attacks. Once again, Stellar Glimmer reactions are more effective and can easily break its shield.

3. Stop it From Charging

In the second phase, the boss will suddenly start charging, drawing in little orbs around you. When this happens, you have to use Pyro/Hydro/Cryo/Electro to attack the Anemo orbs. Doing this will stop the charging process and prevent it from doing the breath attack.

Best Teams for Defeating Chimeric Winged Lion Boss

Many good teams can defeat the Chimeric Winged Lion boss in Genshin Impact, but some are much better for it. The obvious choices are Stellar Conduct and Stellar Swirl teams. Here are the best teams for defeating this boss:

1. Stellar Swirl

After testing multiple times, I found that Stellar Swirl is the best reaction for this boss. As it is very mobile, you don’t have to track it with Yumemizuki Mizuki as your main DPS. Alongwith here, if you pair Qiqi and Faruzan, then the boss won’t take much time to be defeated.

2. Stellar Conduct

Stellar Conduct is also a good reaction for this boss, but as the boss keeps moving around, hitting him with Stellar Conduct can be quite tricky. Still, with Sandrone as the main DPS, along with Yae Miko, Odette, and Alyosha, you can still defeat the boss fairly easily.

  • Main DPS: Sandrone
  • Sub DPS: Yae Miko
  • Sub DPS: Odette
  • Support: Alyosha
