Weekly Bosses & Trounce Domains

Weekly Bosses Overview

Weekly bosses are very strong enemies in Genshin Impact. You can fight each weekly boss one time every week for rewards. These bosses give special items you need to make your characters’ talents better. As you play the story, you will find new weekly bosses. Some bosses, like the Guardian of Apep's Oasis, need you to finish quests before you can fight them.

Here’s a simple look at weekly bosses:

Feature	Weekly Bosses
Challenge Frequency	You can fight once each week.
Reward Reset Time	Rewards reset every Monday at 4:00 AM.
Material Drop Rates	Talent materials drop but not very often.
Unlock Requirements	You must finish story or quests first.

Trounce Domains Overview

Trounce Domains are special places for fighting weekly bosses. You can go into a Trounce Domain any day you want. You can fight the boss inside many times, but you only get rewards once each week. Trounce Domains have tough boss fights and give rare artifacts, character ascension items, and talent level-up items. These rewards help make your team stronger.

Trounce Domains are open all the time.
Each boss gives different rewards.
You need Original Resin to get rewards.

Why They Matter

You need items from weekly bosses and Trounce Domains to make your characters’ talents better. Without these items, you cannot reach higher talent levels. The items do not drop often, so you should plan your fights every week. The Beginner’s Priority Guide helps you pick which bosses to fight first, so you do not waste time or resin. If you want a stronger team and want to move ahead faster, focus on these fights every week.

Tip: Look at the reset time every Monday so you do not miss your weekly rewards!

Beginner’s Priority Guide: Weekly Bosses

Which Bosses to Challenge First

You might wonder which weekly bosses you should fight first. The answer depends on your team, your Adventure Rank, and the talent materials you need. If you just started, focus on bosses that drop materials for your main characters. Usually, the first bosses you unlock are Stormterror (Dvalin), Andrius (Wolf of the North), and Childe (Tartaglia). These fights are easier for beginners and their drops help most early-game characters.

Here’s a quick way to decide:

Check which talent materials your favorite characters need.
Look for bosses that drop those materials.
Start with Stormterror and Andrius if you want a smoother fight.
Use the Beginner’s Priority Guide to plan your weekly boss runs.

Tip: If you reach Adventure Rank 40 and Version 4.2 or later, you can use the Quick Challenge feature. This lets you enter Trounce Domains for weekly bosses without finishing all the story quests. You can farm materials faster and skip some quest requirements.

Bosses by Ease

Not all bosses are equally tough. Some fights are much easier for new players. The Beginner’s Priority Guide helps you pick bosses that match your skill level. Here’s a table to help you compare:

Factor	Description
Boss's Elemental Attributes	Each boss has a unique element. Pick characters that counter the boss’s element for an easier fight.
Player's Character Selection	Your team matters. Use characters with strong shields, healing, or elemental reactions.
Boss Fight Mechanics	Learn the boss’s attack patterns. Some bosses have simple moves, while others need quick dodges.

Stormterror and Andrius have simple mechanics and clear attack patterns. You can dodge their attacks and heal between phases. Childe is a bit harder but still manageable. Later bosses like Azhdaha or Guardian of Apep’s Oasis need better gear and more practice.

Note: If you struggle with a boss, try co-op mode. You can team up with friends or random players to make the fight easier.

Bosses by Rewards

You want the best rewards for your resin. The Beginner’s Priority Guide recommends fighting bosses that give talent materials for your main team. As your world level goes up, you get better drops. Here’s a look at how world level affects your rewards:

Item Type	Average Drop Rate	Chance (%)
5-star Artifact	1.24	N/A
4-star Artifact	2.88	N/A
Ascension Gemstone	0.031	3.1
Northlander Billet	0.12	12
Dream Solvent	0.325	32.5
Exclusive Talent Material	2.39	N/A

When you reach Adventure Rank 45, you unlock better artifact drops. At World Level 8, you start getting two or more high-tier talent materials from weekly bosses. This means you can upgrade your characters faster and save resin.

Tip: Always check your world level before spending resin on weekly bosses. Higher world levels mean better rewards and more efficient farming.

The Beginner’s Priority Guide helps you track which bosses give the best drops for your team. Use it to plan your weekly fights and maximize your progress.

Claiming Rewards

Resin Usage

When you beat a weekly boss in Genshin Impact, you need to spend Original Resin to claim your rewards. You can't use Condensed Resin here, so make sure you have enough Original Resin before you start the fight. The first three weekly bosses you defeat each week only cost 30 Original Resin each. After that, every boss costs 60 Original Resin. You get items like Artifacts and Character Ascension Materials from these claims.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

You can claim rewards from each weekly boss once per week.
The first three bosses cost 30 Original Resin each.
Any boss after the third costs 60 Original Resin.
Weekly bosses reset every Monday at 4 AM server time.

Tip: Always check your resin before entering a Trounce Domain. You don’t want to finish a tough fight and realize you can’t claim the loot!

Boss Type	Original Resin Cost
Trounce Domains	30 Original Resin (first three uses for the week), then 60 Original Resin
Elite Bosses	40 Original Resin

Weekly Limits

You have a weekly limit for claiming boss rewards. This limit helps you plan your resin use and makes sure you don’t run out too fast. If you farm bosses every week, you’ll build up the talent materials you need for your favorite characters. Missing a week means you’ll fall behind, and catching up later gets tough. ManaBuy can help bridge the gap if you find yourself short on materials.

Weekly Bosses	Resin Cost	Remaining Resin
3 Discounted	90	1170
Daily Regeneration	180	N/A

Weekly boss timing is important for resource management.
Farming consistently for 6–9 weeks helps you upgrade your team.
Delaying boss fights can make progression slower.

Note: Understanding your weekly treasure limit helps you decide when to challenge bosses and when to save resin for other activities.

Maximizing Rewards

You want to get the most out of your resin every week. Here are some easy strategies:

Use between 150 and 160 resin daily to keep your progress steady.
Always defeat the first three weekly bosses for the lower resin cost.
Plan your boss fights around your resin regeneration so you never waste any.
Even if you run out of resin, you can still complete boss fights for weekly missions and achievements.

💡 Pro Tip: Set a reminder for the weekly reset. This way, you never miss out on claiming your rewards and you keep your team growing strong!

Beginner Tips

Co-op Options

You do not have to fight weekly bosses alone. Co-op mode lets you team up with friends or other players. This makes tough bosses much easier, especially if you are new. Here are some ways co-op helps you:

You can focus on attacking while your teammates heal or shield you. This works well for bosses like Childe.
In fights like Scaramouche, you and your team can spread out. This stops everyone from taking damage at the same time.
You can learn boss patterns by watching how others play.

When you play in co-op, bosses get stronger. Their health and attack go up with more players. Check out this table to see how it changes:

Players	Enemy Base HP	Enemy Base ATK
1	100%	100%
2	150%	110%
3	200%	125%
4	250%	140%

You still get great rewards in co-op, like Primogems, Mora, and Hero’s Wit. Some special rewards, like weapon skins, only drop in solo mode.

Tip: If a boss feels too hard, invite others to help. You will have more fun and learn faster.

Quality-of-Life Features

Genshin Impact gives you tools to make boss fights easier. One of the best is the Quick Challenge feature. Here is what you get:

You can challenge weekly bosses without finishing all the story quests.
You get talent materials faster for leveling up your characters.
Quick Challenge unlocks at Adventure Rank 40.

The Beginner’s Priority Guide suggests using these features as soon as you can. They save you time and help you focus on building your team.

Note: Always check for new updates. The game adds more features to help you every few months.

Mistakes to Avoid

Everyone makes mistakes when starting out. Here are some things you should watch for:

Do not forget to claim your weekly boss rewards. If you miss them, you fall behind.
Avoid spending all your resin on random domains. Focus on bosses that help your main team.
Do not ignore co-op mode. It can make hard fights much easier.
Remember, some rewards only drop in solo mode. Plan your runs if you want everything.

If you follow these tips, you will grow your team faster and enjoy the game more. The Beginner’s Priority Guide can help you avoid common traps and keep you on track.

Note: Always check what your main character needs before spending resin. This keeps your progress steady.

Tracking Progress

You can track your weekly boss runs and rewards with a simple table or checklist. Here’s an example:

Boss Name	Fought This Week	Talent Material Needed	Reward Claimed

Keep this table updated. You’ll know which bosses you’ve fought and which rewards you’ve claimed. This helps you plan your next week and avoid missing out.
