How to Defeat He Never Dies

Proc Overloaded When He's Charging

Genshin Impact - Proc Overloaded While Charging

When He Never Dies is charging his big, one-hit KO attack, proc Overloaded as much as possible. This will build up interruption within the enemy and can therefore cancel the attack altogether. It will also be stunned after so you can dish out more damage!

Recommended Team Against He Never Dies

At the start of the battle, you are told to "interrupt He Never Dies while charging" using interruptible attacks. One reaction comes to mind for this: Overloaded.

Overloaded has an inherent interruption capability and since He Never Dies is a small enemy, you can definitely juggle him.

Chevreuse Overload Team

Main DPS Support Support Support
Genshin - Raiden Raiden Genshin - Chevreuse Chevreuse Genshin - Xiangling Xiangling Genshin - Bennett Bennett
Genshin - Yoimiya Yoimiya Genshin - Chevreuse Chevreuse Genshin - Fischl Fischl Genshin - Beidou Beidou
Genshin - Arlecchino Arlecchino Genshin - Chevreuse Chevreuse Genshin - Fischl Fischl Genshin - Beidou Beidou

A simple overload team with Chevreuse is the perfect loadout for this Local Legend. Chevreuse is the ultimate Overload buffer, so it is just necessary to have her in the best team against He Never Dies.

Use Any Pyro-Electro Combination

Note that the recommendations above are the best recommendations. If you don't have the exact team, choose another team that has pyro and electro characters that can reliably execute Overload reactions.

Use Anemo Characters

Genshin Impact - He Never Dies Jean

Jean's skill can easily lift the boss up in the air which will deal significant fall damage. However this won't interrupt the boss's charge attack thus players should still do their best to dodge it.

Additionally, Venti, Wanderer and Kazuha's skill will allow you to fly during the charge attacks, making it easier to dodge.

Use Claymore Characters When He's Charging

As soon as the boss starts his charge attack, change to your claymore character, and immediately hit him with a charge attack. After a few seconds, the boss will be stunned which will stop his charge attack.

I basically did it with Thoma as a shield, Kazuha, and Gaming as the main damage. Just spam his skill and burst and interrupt attacks. I tried using Jean but at no point did it pick up the capybara lol. I tried when it was standing *and* knocked over but it never grabbed him.

Jean.... I'll never sleep on you or your fall damage, everyone else failed me (Xiao, HatGuy, Mualani, Lyney) BUT YOU you carried and you threw. Once you got the cancel mechanic done well with overload or physical dmg the boss is not that hard to dodge or survive. Jean saved me, imma sign up to the knight of Favonius in her honor
