City of thunderstorms Aliens of Fontmerdevoid of speech and reason.

Defeat elemental creatures and mystical beasts to find ancient artifacts. In the guide, we'll tell you how to find the Thunderstorm City dungeon, look at suitable characters, and assemble a squad to complete the test.

Where is Thunder City in Genshin Impact?

The Storm City dungeon can be found on the Eastern slope of Mon Atoneki, in the Bello region. The entrance to the dungeon is located on the surface of the slope.

How to open the City of Thunderstorms

Use the nearest ground teleport point and turn the camera towards the mountain, where you can immediately notice the gates of the City of Thunderstorms. To interact with the dungeon entrance you must reach 30 adventure rank and above.

General information about the dungeon

Choosing the difficulty level of the Storm City dungeon affects the composition of the enemy group and their levels, as well as the guaranteed rewards. The higher the difficulty of completing the dungeon, the more valuable treasures you can get in one test. Requires spending 20 units primordial resin or 1 Thick Resin, equivalent to 40 regular resin, to collect the reward.

During the test, an anomaly of the earth's arteries operates, simplifying the age:

When a character receives an elemental shard created by a Crystal reaction, they gain a boost, increasing the active character's attack power. After being boosted by three times, retrieving the shard again causes a shockwave that damages nearby enemies.

Enemies in Thunder City

The difference in dungeon levels is not only in the rarity of rewards, but in the variety of opponents with whom you have to fight. The enemies featured in Thunder City range from elemental creatures immune to their element and mystical beasts. At every difficulty there are Inorodov Fontmer:

• Blessing: Shattering Assembly I: Armored shield crab, Slimes: Pyro, Hydro, Electro, Cryo.
• Blessing: The Fractured Assembly II: Strong bubble horse, Slimes: Hydro, Pyro, Electro, Large slimes: Hydro, Pyro.
• Blessing: The Shattering Assembly III: Cute sea hare, Large slimes: Pyro, Electro, Cryo.
• Blessing: Shattering Assembly IV: Armored Shield Crab, Strong Bubble Pipit, Cute Sea Hare, Large Slimes: Pyro, Electro, Cryo.

Access to a certain level is only available upon reaching the required level adventure rank. In addition to the stated conditions, for each difficulty the recommended level of character leveling is indicated, if observed, there will be no problems during the age. The rank and squad requirements for each challenge are as follows:

• Blessing: Shattering Assembly I: Required adventure rank is 30, recommended party level is 59.
• Blessing: The Fractured Assembly II: Required adventure rank is 35, recommended party level is 69.
• Blessing: The Shattering Assembly III: Required adventure rank is 40, recommended party level is 80.
• Blessing: Shattering Assembly IV: Required adventure rank is 45, recommended party level is 90.

Recommended characters for completing Storm City

The main difficulties may arise when fighting Fontmer Aliens, since the monsters are protected by elemental shields. Deprive aquatic creatures of their protective dome by causing elemental reactions of the appropriate type. The principle of selecting characters against each mystical beast:

• Armored Crab Shield (Pyro shield) - Hydro;
• Strong bubble skate (Electric shield) — Cryo, Dendro;
• cute sea hare (Cryo shield) - Pyro;

Among the slimes, it is worth highlighting only the Big Cryo slime, protected by a shell - Pyro attacks also help in the battle with it. In a battle with the rest of the group of slimes, you will have to take into their invulnerability to the damage of their element, so the selection of heroes is carried out according to the principle described above.

Hero Choice

For a comfortable age into the team, you should select an Anemo or Geo character and at least one hero of the recommended element with a lot of status: Hydro, Piro, Cryo. In a battle against a large group of the monsters discussed above, the following characters of these elements will perform well:

Character	Element	Weapon	Features
Wanderer	Anemo	Catalyst	An anemo catalyst who, with hand attacks, will cause Dispersion and spread the opposite elements among opponents. All dependencies on the build are useful, be it a bias towards elemental mastery or Anemo damage.
Jean	Anemo	One handed sword	Hiller with good inflation. The ultimate will instantly heal the entire squad and deprive opponents of shields.
Kazuha	Anemo	One handed sword	A multi-faceted hero who is equally good at pulling enemies, dispersing elements and buffing the squad's elemental damage. In addition, it has good damage of its own, greatly simplifying the battle.
Sucrose	Anemo	Catalyst	Like Kazuha, she controls the crowd with skill and elemental burst, and also causes a Dispel reaction. The skill “Forbidden! Isomer 75 / Type II" absorbs one of the elements on opponents, which can have a positive effect on ing the test.
Lynette	Anemo	One handed sword	Distracts enemies with the “Amazing Cat Box”, which deals a long-lasting Anemo parallel to the damage of the absorbed element.
Hu Tao	Pyro	A spear	Using a charged attack, deals high Pyro damage to multiple targets at once. He can deal with most enemies on his own, but in the battle with the Armored Crab and Pyro Slimes you will have to enlist the of s or take a second damage dealer.
Xiangling	Pyro	A spear	Pyro damage dealer from the pocket, capable of giving a huge amount of status without being on the field.
Bennett	Pyro	One handed sword	High healing and a powerful attack power buff can be a strong mainstay for any team. In addition, the low cooldown of the E-Shki will allow you to knock down Cryo shields from enemies if necessary.
Ganyu	Cryo	Bow	A flexible hero who can be used both as a main damage dealer and as a pocket ultimate. When performing functions, the sub-DD can enter the field to destroy the Electro protective dome.
Ayaka	Cryo	One handed sword	High Cryo damage to one or more monsters will allow you to complete the test in the shortest possible time. It is not demanding on time on the field and can provide an opportunity for any secondary damage dealer to come out and knock down Cryo shields.
Rosary	Cryo	A spear	Due to the quick cooldown of the skill and ultimate, it is considered a good applicator. With an elemental explosion, it increases the critical chance of allies, increasing their damage.
Charlotte	Cryo	Catalyst	In addition to instant healing, it deals damage over time by applying Focused Impression and Speedy Silhouette marks.
Keia	Cryo	One handed sword	A budget hero with a fairly persistent Cryo effect. Effectively destroys an electrical if necessary.
Mona	Hydro	Catalyst	Leaves a “phantom of fate” on the field, which distracts enemy attacks and deals Hydro damage. An explosion of elements will help damage dealers deal devastating damage.
Xingqiu	Hydro	One handed sword	Hydro damage dealer from the pocket with a stable status and good damage. Thanks to the ultimate, it attacks together with the active character when he uses a basic attack.
Ye Lan	Hydro	Bow	Performs the same functions as Xingqiu, but depends on the maximum health reserve. In a team with a variety of elements, it gains an advantage by increasing HP.
Kokomi	Hydro	Catalyst	A character with high healing and Hydro application, which does not require being on the field. Like many of the s presented, he will help the team with both healing and destroyed Pyro shields.
Ayato	Hydro	One handed sword	Excellent Hydro damage dealer with high damage in a small area. He can either lead a team or be present solely to destroy Pyro monsters.
Neuvillette	Hydro	Catalyst	Usually demanding of the main DD squad, in this dungeon he calmly fulfills all the requirements for activating the “Heir of the Ancient Sea” ive. For this reason, the squad can be filled with any desired sub-dampers who can knock down the remaining shields.
Navia	Geo	Two-handed sword	It will show itself at its best against elemental creatures, collecting a huge amount of Crystals for shrapnel and anomalies in the arteries of the earth. Thanks to the mechanics of skill and elemental explosion, the heroine does not even need a screed.
Itto	Geo	Two-handed sword	Itto's enhanced form guarantees high Geo damage, which will help break not only the shields of the Fontmer Aliens, but also the test without much difficulty.
Ningguang	Geo	Catalyst	An epic representative of the Geo element can take the role of a main or secondary damage dealer. Will make a huge contribution to the team, for example, when the last enemy of the wave remains under the shield, and there is nothing to shoot it down.

Characters not included in the table can also be used if they meet the requirements of the dungeon and have a sufficient level of pumping.
