Experimental Field Generator in Genshin Impact: How to Find and Win

In Genshin Impact The Experimental Field Generator is a special large-sized device and elite boss, added to the game With You with the release of patch 4.1. It drops tourbillons, which are required to ascend some heroes. In this guide, you will learn where you can find this enemy, what team is recommended to prepare to fight him, and how to defeat him the fastest.

Where to find Experimental Field Generator

To unlock access to this boss, you do not need to fulfill any additional conditions, so, in fact, you can go to it immediately after completing the Archon quest "Song of the Dragon and Freedom". However, we still advise you to first take on the Fontaine quest chain.

So first of all get to Fontaine by choosing one of two possible methods. Next, head to an area that was added in patch 4.1 called "Ruins and Iron Walls Variations." Next, move to the southern part of the Institute of Kinetic Energy. South of the teleport you will find a huge coliseum. Walk inside and you will immediately see the enemy you need.

Respawn of Experimental Field Generator

After you defeat this boss, he will recover approximately in 3-5 minutes – you need to teleport to another area or re-enter the game for the automaton boss to appear again. Remember also that to collect rewards from it you will have to spend 40 units of Primordial Resin.

Characteristics of the Experimental Field Generator

Even in its normal state, this enemy has 70% resistance to Geo, but to other types of damage (including physical) its resistance is only 10%. All this imposes certain restrictions on the selection of characters to fight this boss.

If we talk about the combat parameters of this mechanical creature, then in terms of health and attack power it surpasses such bosses as Setekh Wenut or Iniquitous Baptist, therefore it is a rather dangerous opponent. For example, at level 90, his base HP is 582 thousand units (the baptist has only 371 thousand), and his ATK is 17.1 thousand units (the baptist has 15.2 thousand). You can see all the characteristics of the enemy in the image below (2P, 3P and 4P show the parameters when playing in co-op).

Tips for choosing heroes

Given the boss's large health bar and high attack power, we recommend that you pay as much attention to your squad's survivability as to its damage. If you see that your shield guy can’t cope with the incoming damage, then take a healer into your pack as well. It will help the characters recover from powerful area attacks from the automaton.

Primary and secondary damage dealers should be Electro, Cryo, Pyro, Dendro, Hydro and/or Anemo to create a variety of elemental reactions. You can also try to collect a pack for physical damage, which often consists of main DD and sub-DD related to Cryo and Electro elements.

As for supports, they can be of any element, since their main task will be to increase the elemental damage of damage dealers, that is, they will still rarely attack the enemy. This also applies to shield workers and healers.

In addition, we highly recommend that you take characters who can perform attacks with pneuma energy. This is about Traveler (Hydro) and heroes originally from Fontaine. This way you can destroy the boss's core extremely quickly, turning off its gravitational field and making the battle with it easier. The picture below shows all the most optimal characters for this battle.

Optimal commands

Taking into account the above information, we have prepared some of the most suitable units that will be easiest for you to deal with with the Experimental Field Generator. They are shown in the table below.

Experimental Field Generator attacks and movements

Dual laser

The boss activates two emitters that hit the ground in a spinning motion. They deal physical damage on hit.

Carpet bombing

The automaton rises high into the air and then flies towards the player, dropping a large number of bombs on the ground, causing physical damage over an area. At the end of the bombardment, he plummets to the ground, dealing even more physical damage. damage in the area. Sometimes he performs a drop kick without bombing.

Rocket salvo

The enemy targets the player and then launches a lot of missiles at him, flying in a straight path, so you can dodge them without any problems using dashes. They deal physical damage.

Gravity reduction field

The boss teleports to the center of the arena and a gravity reduction field begins to operate throughout its entire territory. As a result, characters can jump higher. While the field is active, the enemy will create powerful Geo shockwaves - jump to dodge them (dashing will not help you).

In this mode, if the Experimental Field Generator is subjected to a total of 3 Pneuma attacks, the low gravity will disappear and it will fall down.

Enhanced Attack

First, it rips rocks out of the ground and then launches them at the player as homing projectiles, dealing Geo damage in an area. He performs this attack while the Gravity Reduction Field is active.

Power Attack 2

Yellow circles appear on the ground, from which after a couple of seconds the boss rips out the ground, causing Geo damage within these areas. Leave these areas as quickly as possible to avoid taking damage.

Boost Attack 3

The boss accumulates energy and then deals Geo damage over a huge area around itself. Quickly run to the edge of the arena to avoid taking damage.

How to defeat the Experimental Field Generator

Preparing for battle

Before the battle begins, you can eat dishes that increase attack power, critical damage and critical hit chance. It would be a good idea to drink potions that increase certain elemental damage to strengthen your damage dealers. In this case, the following will be useful:

• Streaming Essential Oil – Increases Hydro damage by 25% for 5 minutes.
• Flaming Essential Oil – Increases Pyro damage by 25% for 5 minutes.
• Forest Essential Oil – increases Dendro damage by 25% for 5 minutes.
• Shocking Essential Oil – Increases Electro damage by 25% for 5 minutes.
• Frosting Essential Oil – Increases Cryo damage by 25% for 5 minutes.
• Gushing Essential Oil – increases Anemo damage by 25% for 5 minutes.

The boss also primarily deals physical and Geo damage, so we recommend you take the Dustproof Potion, which increases Geo resistance by 25% for 300 seconds.

Battle strategy

At the beginning of the battle, all you have to do is dodge the boss's attacks and strike back using standard rotations of your damage dealers. At this stage, the enemy will only deal physical damage.

Soon the boss will move to the center of the arena and launch a low gravity field. If you have fighters on your team who attack with pneuma energy, then immediately switch to them and start performing corresponding blows on the enemy’s ushii core (purple ball) to destroy it and bring the enemy down. Three hits are usually enough.

If you don't have any Pneumatic heroes, get close to the Experimental Field Generator and start performing fall attacks to continue damaging it. Soon he will turn off the field himself and go down. After this, continue using standard battle tactics.

Achievements for Experimental Field Generator

During the battle with this boss, you can get two trophies at once. Next, we will tell you what you need to do to open them.

The Distance of the Moon

You will need to perform 11 fall attacks within one gravity reduction field while hitting the boss. Everything is simple here - we wait until the enemy rises into the air and launches a purple core, and then we stand close to him and begin to jump and perform attacks while falling. You need to hit the enemy 11 times. For unlocking achievements they give 5 source stones.

Gravity Front

You need to defeat the Experimental Field Generator without being hit by Swell. The boss uses the corresponding attack during the action of the low gravity field - we are talking about Geo Shock Wave. To avoid it, you just need to make a jump at the right time. Note that there may be several such waves. For unlocking the trophy you will receive 5 source stones.
