In the latest update, Version 5.5 of Genshin Impact, players can encounter a new challenging local legend known as The Peak. This formidable foe is a mutated Tatankasaurus capable of unleashing powerful fiery attacks that can easily overwhelm unprepared characters. To successfully defeat The Peak, it’s essential to understand its unique abilities and mechanics.
Strategies to Defeat The Peak in Genshin Impact
The primary feature of The Peak’s combat involves the pillars it conjures during its attacks. When these pillars appear, an unmistakable sign is witnessed: The Peak’s horns ignite, indicating a substantial increase in its defensive capabilities. To reestablish a fighting chance, players must destroy these pillars to extinguish the flames on its horns and reduce its resistance.
Utilizing Electro characters or specific team members like Varesa and Iansan from the Collective of Plenty can effectively break the pillars. When you see The Peak preparing for its devastating Saurian Stomp, it’s your opportunity: target and shatter the towering pillars to stagger The Peak and access a window for dealing significant damage.
Victory against The Peak rewards players with valuable resources such as Juvenile, Seasoned, and Tyrant’s Fang, all of which are vital for ascending several characters and weapons unique to Natlan.

Players can fulfill all the criteria for The Peak’s achievements in a single battle. However, Genshin Impact only awards one achievement per encounter, necessitating at least three attempts due to the daily respawn mechanic.
To achieve these accolades, focus on consistently breaking the three large pillars that emerge when The Peak charges its Saurian Stomp. Doing so not only prevents this powerful move but also creates an opportunity to defeat The Peak during its vulnerable moments.
Locating The Peak in Genshin Impact
To find The Peak, head to the northwest side of Atocpan. Start your journey at the northwest teleport waypoint and follow the designated path leading to a vast arena where you can engage this local legend.
