Genshin Impact Radiant Moonfly Boss Guide: How to Defeat, Location, and Best Teams

Radiant Moonfly is an overworld field boss found in Genshin Impact’s Luna I update. The new boss comes with new material rewards, required for the new character Lauma’s ascension. In this guide, learn where to find the Radiant Moonfly’s location in Genshin Impact, its boss drops, and how to beat it.

How to Get to Radiant Moonfly in Genshin Impact

Unlike the Knuckle Duckle field boss, this butterfly-shaped monster is harder to locate. The Radiant Moonfly boss is found in a cave near the Blue Amber Lake and Nothing Passage. While you will find a teleporter inside the cave, you must unlock it for the first time.

To unlock the teleporter near the boss and find it, start from Nasha Town and take the passage to the north. Walk along the eastern edge of the Blue Amber Lake, and before the Nothing Passage starts, go toward the mountain by the shore. Now, look for the small cave entrance and continue walking inside. Walk a few more seconds in the cave to locate the Radiant Moonfly field boss in Genshin Impact.

How to Beat Radiant Moonfly in Genshin Impact

The Radiant Moonfly is not an easy field boss in Genshin Impact Luna I, so you’ll need the right approach to take it down. Before starting the fight, keep these two key points in mind.

1. Beware of All Three Forms

Before you start your fight against the verdant menace, you must know that the Radiant Moonfly has three different variations. When you start the fight, it begins in a melee form that deals two different close-range attacks.

However, as soon as it turns into a butterfly, the style of attack changes. The green version does an AOE attack, and after taking enough damage, it transforms itself. The final form of the Radiant Moonfly is the orange one, which adds a burning field to the area, dealing over time damage.

2. Notice the Green Flash and Sustain

There are two things you must remember when dealing with the Radiant Moonfly’s attacks. Before doing any attack, it will flash a green indicator. While it is easier to notice it in melee mode, during the other forms, you will have a hard time tracking it. That is why it is better to keep the dodge key at your fingertips.

As the boss deals different attacks in each form, you must stay careful. In the melee form, it will try to do a slash, then come closer. In the green butterfly form, it will do a big energy ball from a distance and a swirl attack. However, the tough one to deal with is the fire version. It applies the burn effect on both the green butterfly attacks and does a basic attack from a huge range.

Moreover, most of the time, the burning damage will be more difficult to handle. So, make sure you have sustaining characters and that you are constantly healing the team to survive the battle against the Radiant Moonfly boss in Genshin Impact.

Best Teams to Defeat the Radiant Moonfly

To take down the Radiant Moonfly field boss in Genshin Impact, you’ll need the right team setup. Since you already know how to deal with its attacks, here are the best team compositions you can use against it.

1. Lauma-Nilou Lunar Bloom

Lauma is a must to trigger the Lunar Bloom elemental reaction that helps you take down the Radiant Moonfly faster. As there will be a lot of burn damage, having a sustain character in the squad is a must.

• Main DPS: Nilou (enables Hydro)
• Sub DPS/Support: Lauma (enables Lunar-bloom)
• Support/Sustain: Kokomi
• Support: Nahida

2. Lauma-Neuvillette Lunar Bloom

In case you want more DPS, you can go with Neuvillette instead. As Neuvillette inflicts self-damage, having multiple healers in the team is important. Kokomi and Baizhu both can do that job.

• Main DPS: Neuvillette (enables Hydro)
• Sub DPS/Support: Lauma (enables Lunar-bloom)
• Support: Kokomi
• Support/Sustain: Baizhu

3. Yelan-Nahida Hyperbloom

If you don’t have the characters who trigger Lunar-bloom from Hyperbloom attacks, you can go for the normal version as well. While it won’t increase the damage significantly, you will still deal a lot of damage. Here is the best Hyperbloom team you can use to defeat Radiant Moonfly:

• Main DPS: Raiden Shogun
• Sub DPS: Yelan (enables Hydro)
• Support: Nahida (enables Dendro)
• Support/Sustain: Baizhu
