Where to Find Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar

Found West of the Masters of the Night-Wind Settlement

Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar is fought by interacting with the Nightsoul Totem around southwest of the Masters of the Night-Wind's settlement in the Tezcatepetonco Range.

After teleporting to the nearest waypoint, indwell a Qucusaur and find a Phlogiston Wind Tunnel on the side of the cliff. Enter it, and while it may take you to the other side instead of on top, it'll be much faster from there.

How to Defeat Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar

Bring Pyro Characters

The Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar will have a phase during the battle where it will fly out of reach, encase the surrounding braziers and itself with ice, then unleashing an incredibly devastating Cryo attack.

To counteract this and force the Spirit to fall down, you will need to melt the ice encasing the braziers or break the Spirit's Cryo shield. For this, don't forget to bring along Pyro characters, especially ranged ones!

Knock It Off the Air

One good way of keeping the Spirit grounded is by forcing it off the air the moment you see it take off. A good and powerful explosion should do the trick—make use of the Overload reaction!

Keep in mind that for this to work, you will need characters that can reach flying enemies.

Melt the Ice Off of the Braziers

If you don't have any ranged Pyro characters, you can still force the Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar down by melting the ice off of the surrounding braziers. Do be warned that this will take significantly longer time.

Be sure to bring your best Pyro characters for the job. The more Pyro characters that can contribute to melting the ice, the better!

Recommended Team Against Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar

Chasca Overload Teams

Main DPS	Sub-DPS	Support	Support
Chasca	Xiangling	Shinobu	Dehya
Chasca	Xiangling	Fischl	Bennett

Taking Chasca's ability to fire bullets of the same elemental type as her party members, triggering Overload will be a breeze if you bring her along. With Chasca in the party, you will be able to force the Spirit down as much as possible.

This will also work like a charm in taking down the Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar's Cryo shield.

Pyro Teams

Main DPS	Support	Support	Support
Arlecchino	Kazuha	Bennett	Thoma
Lyney	Xilonen	Bennett	Dehya

A good alternative to taking on the Spirit of the Fallen Dawnstar is by bringing a party that is heavily centered around Pyro. Bringing Lyney can enable him to take down the Spirit's Cryo shield from afar.

Arlecchino's DMG output is extremely high. When either of them are paired with characters such as Kazuha or Xilonen who can provide substantial DMG support, they will be able to take down the Spirit in record time!
