In this guide, you will learn what you need to do to unlock and find this enemy, as well as which characters are best suited to fight him, and how to dodge his attacks.
How to open and find the Manifestation of Thunder
To unlock this boss, you will need to complete the quest chain. "Seirai Stormchasers", in which you will have to fight this enemy for the first time. Once you've completed the last quest in this line, you'll be able to engage the Thunder Manifestation battle at any time.
So, you can find it on the island of Seirai in a location called Amakumo Peak. Before fighting him, make sure you have 40 Elemental Resin to collect the bounty after killing him. The respawn of the boss, apparently, occurs a few minutes after his death.
Recommended team
We strongly advise you to use a long-range character using a Onion or a catalyst, and also related to Pyro, Hydro or Cryo elements as a primary or secondary damage dealer. In this case, it will be easier for you to dodge enemy attacks and deal damage to them from a safe distance.

How to defeat Manifestation of Thunder
Preparing for battle
This boss cannot be called very difficult, but we still advise you to prepare for the battle with him. Be sure to prepare an Insulation Potion that increases Electro Resistance by 25% for 300 seconds.
It is also necessary eat meals, which increase shield strength and defense, such as Moon Pie. This is especially important if you don't have heroes that can cast a Noelle: Protector. You can also use dishes to increase attack power (Sautéed Matsutake) and stamina, as you will have to run a lot.
Useful tips and tactics
This boss can put a mark on one of the characters. After that, when activating his rage state, he will mainly attack the marked target. This can be used when playing in co-op - for example, the player targeted by Thunder Manifestation must constantly dodge while the other can hit the enemy with impunity.
Watch for attack indicators
Before the boss makes certain attacks, for example, an electric cell or a celestial explosion, the corresponding signs (indicators) appear on the ground. Keep an eye out for them so you can dodge them in time.
Attack from afar
The Thunder Manifestation moves quickly around the arena and often floats high above the ground, so characters with one-handed swords, two-handed swords, and polearms often simply cannot hit it. So damage him with a bow or a catalyst.
Boss attacks and moves
bomb drop
The boss Turnover and then takes off, spreads his "wings" and throws a lot of Electro bombs in front of him. You will not be hurt if you stand far from him.
Spinning wing kick
The boss spreads his wing and then delivers a spinning kick to it. Just dash to the side to dodge the attack.
thunder cage
Thunder Manifestation summons 4 Electro Pillars, which form a huge electrical cage. She will follow the hero. Use sprint and dash to get away from her.
lightning attack
The boss summons three lightning bolts that strike right under his body. Again, if you stand far from him, then you will not be hurt.
Leap Forward
The boss will fly up, and rectangular areas will appear on the ground, which will show you in which direction the enemy will now make a dash. You need to escape from these areas as quickly as possible.
Electro walls
The boss summons two electrical barriers that do no damage, but mark you, making it harder for you to dodge other enemy attacks.
Electro charges
The boss creates a lot of electric projectiles in front of him, and then shoots them in front of him. This attack is fairly easy to dodge.
Thunder Manifest Achievements
Radio Silence
According to the official description, in order to get the achievement, you need to let the boss mark you before attacking him. So, to fulfill this condition, take a character with a lot of health, for example, Zhongli with a Black Brush, put a Noelle: Protector on him if possible, and go to the arena.
Now just stand in front of the enemy and do nothing - you can not use normal attacks, elemental skills and elemental explosions, otherwise you will block the opening of the trophy. You need to wait for the moment when a purple mark appears on the character from the boss himself, and not from his probes. If you walk around with it for 2-3 seconds, you will immediately get an achievement that gives 5 primogems.
Electric Escape
According to the official description, in order to get the achievement, you need to destroy the boss, avoiding his Thundercage. This is a special attack, the GIF from which we indicated in the section with the movements of the Manifestation of Thunder. All you need to do is never hit this cell for the whole fight.
This is not very difficult to do, since right before the cell spawns, a purple circle appears on the ground, indicating the place where the boss attack will be carried out (see the first screenshot above). The circle will follow the character for 2-3 seconds, and then stop - it is at this moment that you need to make a sharp jerk to the side. Keep running so you don't end up in a cage.
To make it easier for you to avoid this attack, we advise you to take two Anemo heroes or characters with an alternative sprint (Kamisato Ayaka, Mona) to the squad. We do not recommend taking characters with a model of a little girl (Klee, Qiqi, and so on), as they move a little slower. Try to deal with the Manifestation of Thunder as quickly as possible so that she does not have time to place a cage several times. For this achievement you get 5 primogems.
Thunder Fall
According to the official description, in order to get the achievement, you will need to defeat the boss while he is in flight. First of all, you have to take away most of the enemy’s health, leaving him with 2-5% of the life bar so that you can kill him with one hit.
Then wait for the moment when the enemy rises even higher to perform a bomb drop attack (many circles will appear on the ground). At that moment, use your most powerful elemental blast next to Manifestation of Thunder to knock her to the ground and kill her. You will receive 5 Source Stones for this trophy.
An Love and Non-Communication
According to the official description, in order to get the achievement, you will need to defeat the boss without being detected by the Impact Probe. These probes are understood as Electro blades that are dropped by the enemy to the ground at the beginning of the battle and put marks on the character.
To avoid these beacons, you can stand on the edge of the arena and attack the enemy from afar with the help of archers. After the enemy marks you, you can no longer be afraid of Impact Probes and start fighting the boss's Manifestation in melee.
You can also just stand next to the boss immediately after the start of the battle and do not move away from him anywhere, keeping to the center of the location. In this case, the beacons will also not be able to reach you. This trophy gives 5 Source Stones.
