How to Beat Inexorable Spread

Surge Mode

Genshin Impact - Verdict of Blades Day 2 Inexorable Spread Guide - Blade Mirage

Dendro, Center Stage!

As suggested by the Blade Mirage in Inexorable Spread, anything and everything Dendro-related is the key to completing the challenge. Triggering any Dendro-related elemental reaction will result in a huge debuff to opponents.

Therefore, it's time to pull out your best Dendro units and Dendro parties, and send Sprawling Shots flying!

Steadfast Mode

Genshin Impact - Verdict of Blades Day 2 Inexorable Spread Guide - Hyperbloom

Aim for Hyperbloom

Still being one of the best elemental reactions in the game capable of wiping out hordes of enemies in record time, Hyperbloom will make for a significatly easier time when dealing with the large opponents thrown at you.

Do take note that Hydrograna will be present on the battlefield, so creating Dendro cores shouldn't pose much of a problem. Be sure to use them to maximize the effects of the Blade Mirage as much as possible.

Best Teams for Inexorable Spread

Hyperbloom Teams

Main-DPS Sub-DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Raiden Raiden Genshin - Yelan Yelan Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Baizhu Baizhu
Genshin - Alhaitham Alhaitham Genshin - Xingqiu Xingqiu Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Shinobu Shinobu
Genshin - Alhaitham Alhaitham Genshin - Kazuha Kazuha Genshin - Shinobu Shinobu Genshin - Kokomi Kokomi

The most recommended and versatile elemental reaction to go for is Hyperbloom as it ideal for dealing with both crowds of enemies and large opponents like the machines you are about to face.

Nahida and Alhaitham are undoubtedly some of the best Dendro units in the game to take the front lines. Yelan and Xingqiu can set up Hydro without any delay, and Baizhu and Kokomi can provide both healing and elemental support.

Spread/Aggravate Teams

Main-DPS Sub-DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Raiden Raiden Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Kazuha Kazuha Genshin - Baizhu Baizhu
Genshin - Alhaitham Alhaitham Genshin - Fischl Fischl Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Shinobu Shinobu

Spread and Aggravate are also great options in this challenge. Bringing out your best Dendro and Electro DPS's will do wonders in dealing as much DMG as possible.

The Raiden Shogun is excellent when going up against machine-type enemies. Each Charged ATK that she does will result in large elemental orbs that will help restore energy to the entire party. Kazuha will be able to weaken opponents' Electro RES.

Bloom Teams

Main-DPS Sub-DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Nilou Nilou Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Yelan Yelan Genshin - Baizhu Baizhu
Genshin - Kaveh Kaveh Genshin - Xingqiu Xingqiu Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Kokomi Kokomi

Still remembering the Inexorable Spread's Blade Mirage, Bloom can also be right up your alley in this challenge.

Nilou and Kaveh flourish in generating and utilizing Dendro cores, with the former essentially giving off the same effects as the Hydrograna on the field, and the latter excelling in detonating Dendro cores manually and even using them for healing!

Burgeon Teams

Main-DPS Sub-DPS Sub-DPS Support
Genshin - Diluc Diluc Genshin - Xingqiu Xingqiu Genshin - Kazuha Kazuha Genshin - Baizhu Baizhu
Genshin - Alhaitham Alhaitham Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Xingqiu Xingqiu Genshin - Thoma Thoma
Genshin - Yanfei Yanfei Genshin - Nahida Nahida Genshin - Yelan Yelan Genshin - Zhongli Zhongli
Genshin - Alhaitham Alhaitham Genshin - Yelan Yelan Genshin - Kazuha Kazuha Genshin - Bennett Bennett

Another way of using Dendro cores is through Burgeon, which is capable of dealing DMG in several AoE's. This calls for excellent Pyro units to take the field once the Dendro cores generate.

Do take note, however, that Dendro cores detonated through Burgeon also deal DMG to your own party members. Therefore, capable healers are also called for. Additionally, other elemental reactions like Burning and Vaporize may be triggered.
