How to Defeat Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone

Break the Objects the Ropes Have Grappled Onto

Genshin - Break Dendro Objects

During the fight, after every five or so attacks, Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone will summon three Dendro zip points to hang from. These need to be broken down with Elements that react to Dendro such as Pyro, Electro, and Hydro.

When all zip points are broken down, Cihuacoatl will fall to the ground and be staggered for a time, allowing the player to unload a full damage rotation without consequence.

Bring a Ranged Unit

Genshin - Bring Bow Character

These zip points will be unreachable for most of your melee units, requiring the use of a Bow Character or anyone with ranged capabilities in order to take care of the Dendro objects.

Electro units such as Clorinde, Fischl, and Yae Miko are noteworthy here due to their capabilities to hit the Dendro points with either their weapon or Elemental Skills.

Watch Out for Cihuacoatl's Hit and Run

Genshin - Bob and Weave

Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone will often take turns between repositioning and attacking, so whenever you see her reposition with her grappling hook, be prepared to dodge her next attack.

Her melee attacks have long windups, so use her sound cues as a way to time your dodges or Elemental Bursts to i-frame through her more powerful hits.

Freeze Teams are Viable

Genshin - Freeze is Viable

Since Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone is an average-sized opponent, triggering Freeze repeatedly on her can be an effective way to deny usage of any of her mobility tools.

It is even possible to lock Cihuacoatl in a near-permanent freeze with good rotations!

Recommended Teams Against Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone

Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone is an opponent who uses her Dendro cannon for quick attack bursts and her grappling hook for mobility, increasing the importance for units with abilities not tied to a zone.

This means high-mobility or high-range characters are preferred due to their ability to keep up against Cihuacoatl's frequent repositioning.

Genshin - Wriothesley Wriothesley Genshin - Shenhe Shenhe Genshin - Furina Furina Genshin - Kokomi Kokomi

These characters were chosen due to either their high-ranged attacks, high mobility without sacrificing damage, or the ability to completely lock down the opponent in Wriothesley's case.

Cihuacoatl of Chimeric Bone Respawn Time

Can Be Fought Anytime

Stand under whichever dendro hook she is attached to and she cannot hit you. I completed the second achievement with a level 40 Amber using burning reaction on the hook this way. Just make sure to swap off Amber when she moves and reposition with a character that won't instantly die :D Shielders also help, but even tank Zhongli will go down if you try to face tank her arial hits.
