How to Defeat Marana's Avatar

Marana's Avatar Boss Fight Guide

  1. Follow Arama to the Withering Zones.
  2. Destroy one area of the Withering Zone.
  3. Return to the boss area.
  4. Reduce the HP of Marana's Avatar to a point.
  5. Repeat Steps 1 to 4.
  6. Defeat Marana's Avatar one final time.

Fight as Traveler

Genshin - Fight as the traveler
You will have to fight the Marana's Avatar with Traveler alone. Don't worry if your own Traveler is underleveled, as the fight will give you a Level 80 Traveler with an ascended Silver Sword and 22,000 HP. However, your Traveler will be aligned with whatever element you have before entering.

It's recommended to have your Traveler aligned to Dendro first. You can teleport back to the nearest waypoint anytime, so go to a nearest Statue of the Seven first!

Dendro Traveler Rating and Best Builds

Clear Withering Zones

Genshin - Tumor of the Withering in Marana
At the start of the fight, you won't be able to damage Marana's Avatar. Instead, follow Arama behind you so it can transport you to one of the three Withering Zones.

As usual, use Charged Attacks (holding the Normal Attack) with a Healthy Dendrograna to destroy the Withering Branches. Enemies will appear during this, so stay in Arama's circle!

How to Clear the Withering Zones

Enter Arama's barrier to block the Withering Light

Genshin - Withering Light

When the Marana's Avatar readies up its Withering Light attack. Go inside Arama's protective dome to nullify its effects!

Return to where Marana's Avatar is

Genshin - Return by using Four-Leaf Sigils
Once the Tumor has been destroyed, Four-Leaf Sigils will appear. You can use this to easily get back to the boss arena.

How to Use Four-Leaf Sigils

Engage the Marana's Avatar in Combat

Genshin - Shave off Health
The boss will be defenseless during this period. Use your Elemental Skills, Burst, and Normal Attacks to reduce the boss's health by around 1/3. Marana's Avatar regenerates afterwards.

Repeat the process to all three Zones

Genshin - Repeat three times
When the boss regenerates, follow Arama again and repeat the process. You only need to do this three times until a cutscene stops the fight momentarily.

Defeat the final enemy

Genshin - FInal boss fight
This time, the Marana's Avatar will be guarded by several Rifthounds. You can simply focus on damaging Marana's Avatar's health to zero to defeat it! Arama will still support you from behind, so get healing from its zone if you need it!

Tips on Marana's Avatar Boss Fight

Follow Arama to where the spirit is

Genshin - Follow Arama
When the screen prompts you to follow Arama to where the spirit is, simply exit the arena and follow Arama. It will lead you to a Withering Zone.

Avoid Marana's Avatar AoE Attacks

Genshin - Marana
Be careful as the Marana's Avatar still attacks you from afar. Try to dodge the purple circles on the ground!

Stay within Arama's Circle of Healing

Genshin - Stay inside the circle of healing
As much as possible, fight enemies within Arama's Area of Effect when dealing with the Tumor of the Withering. Standing outside of the zone will accumulate Decay, so you must lure all enemies in the circle. Staying within the circle also gives you healing.

If you're fighting the Avatar again, quickly run to Arama's side to reduce your Decay level!

Big correction here: The game does not automatically give you a Dendro Traveller for this fight. I had been leaving Aether on Ameno alignment, which is my preference, in Sumeru, and just using Collei for dendro puzzle solving. My Aether was unable to damage the withering zones at all until I hopped out of the area, went to a Statue of the Seven, and set his alignment to dendro.
