  1. just my guess, i think bosses has different programming in their script. normal mob is killable by drowning but bosses dont. i play genshin around the time that quest magu kenki still not fixed of its bugged revival, it used to go back to center refilling its hp to full as if it has going out of its border if we move abit close to the edge making it a cheating unlimited hp boss for newbies to defeat

  2. I bet they can't drown, it's only cuz boss enemies have to be programmed to drown. And it's likely bosses aren't supposed to drown (me before watching the conclusion)

    Damn, I was expecting to be wrong (me after)

    It would've been epic had the start ended with the same boss, can't wait to see how he does the next part in another year

  3. i used a tech and found out that most bosses can indeed drown, even ones you wouldn't expect such as childe, they either die with their normal animation or just disappear like rana does so its unfortunately not that interesting

  4. It'd be a lot of work to patch out every individual arena so bosses can't be ringed out (let alone one-offs in sidequests like this) so I assume they put a flag on bosses to never register the ring out…

  5. You might be aware of this video, but there was a clip where Kazuha could lure the Seahorse out of the abyss arena and make it fall to its death, starting the next chamber. Other videos replicating it after this one had the Seahorse teleporting back into the arena after it fell. Most likely Hoyo just added an immunity to OOB/Water deaths to bosses as their patch for this, and instead you just get what happens at 3:00 now. So my hypothesis is that you used to be able to kill bosses this way, but not anymore.

  6. That's interesting. I assumed bosses functioned the same as any other mob. I wonder if it's only this boss that can't die from water because it's a boss that only appears for a specific quest, or if it's all bosses that are immune.
