feathered mold в Sumeru, also called the Mushroom Lord of the Dark Chalice. This bird-like beast is a unique form of large moulds, which are superior in intelligence to many animals and are excellent hunters. The materials dropped from the boss are necessary for pumping and exalting Dendro characters.
We have prepared a detailed guide: how to open the Feathered Mold, where to find it, how to defeat it and which characters are best to use.
Where to Find the Feathered Mold in Genshin Impact [Map]
Before you go to the boss, you must fulfill certain conditions that allow you to open it:
- Reach 32nd adventure rank.
If the location is still closed, then start the story mission of the Archons Chapter 1. Volume 3. "Through Smoke and Dark Woods" (completely not required).
The enemy himself is located near the desert part Sumeru west of Vanarana. The path is quite ornate: first you need to get to the stump, above which the four-leafed symbol hovers. If you look to the northeast, you can find the entrance to the cave. That's where you need to go.
Monsters await in the cave. After defeating them, a springy mushroom will be released.
Then you need to look up to find a portal. To get into it, jump up to it with the mushroom and use the four-leaf symbol.
The teleportation will happen to a branch along which you can go to the arena where the world boss is located.
If you turn around, standing in the same place, you can see a teleporter. Don't forget to activate it, so that later you can make your way to this mob easier in case you need it again.

Whom to take to the squad for the battle with the Feathered Mold
Base stats (characteristics) and resistances of the boss:
Because the monster is an evolved version of normal moulders, it retained a high elemental resistance to their native element Dendro (80%). Therefore, characters with this god's eye are not very relevant in the battle with a feathered opponent, but can still be used to impose a status and conduct reactions. Resistance to other elements is quite moderate.
Separately, it is worth noting quite high base attack and health compared to other world bosses. In this regard, units with big damage и heal/shields.

Boss attacks and abilities
Consider the key abilities of the Feathered Mold that he uses in battle:
- RџSЂRё normal attacks the opponent leans forward and performs a sharp headbutt, dealing damage to Dendro. If it hits the character, it knocks him down.
- Periodically, the enemy releases homing dendro projectiles. This ability can be easily tracked, as before the blow, the mold squeezes its tail and accumulates Dendro's energy for several seconds.
- Activation - a special state in which the boss uses furious attacks and deals increased damage. Has a similar feature Stimulation (Dendro + Electro). When the meter is filled to the maximum, the enemy gains a buff for a while, after which it is gradually depleted.
- Mold also reacts to Burning (if not located in the Activation state) that occurs when Pyro affects Dendro. If you tuck the boss of this reaction, he becomes "Burned" and takes more damage. In addition, the feathered beast begins to produce spores to escape this effect.
How to beat the Feathered Mold in Genshin Impact
In this paragraph, we will analyze in detail the key mechanics and features of the boss, as well as tactics for a quick victory.
Discard Electro and Stim reactions so as not to buff the opponent
Electro attacks and Dendro+Electro reactions accumulate the effect Activations, which makes the enemy stronger. To fight him, it is not recommended to use these elements or do it at a minimum. In addition, the boss has an increased Dendro resistance, so characters with this god's eye are less effective against him as damage dealers and are only suitable for inflicting status.
Use Pyro to reduce the level of the rage bar and weaken the boss
Pyro attacks reduce accumulation rate Activations, which avoids the maximum rage bar and buff effect. In addition, such an impact creates a reaction burning. In this state, the enemy becomes weaker. Therefore, it is recommended to use fire attacks on the mold as often as possible.
Dodge, use shields or ranged attacks
Feathered Mold is a boss with extremely painful hits, but he is quite clumsy и slow. Be ready to dodge or provide yourself with enough protection so that you don't take lethal damage to the characters. Also in this case, heroes with a long-range combat style are effective.
Use buffs from food and potions before the start of the fight
In addition to being able to deal high damage, this boss has a high health pool. Before the battle, it is recommended to eat dishes for attack power, crits ("The Adept's Temptation", Fried Matsutake, "Grow Mountain") and also drink a potion to increase elemental damage corresponding to the element of the characters used for battle. In addition, it will be useful to apply another potion: resistance on Dendro, since the enemy attacks with this particular element.
How much is restored Jadeplume Terrorshroom
Jadeplume Terrorshroom respawns every 2 minutes after the defeat. For more accurate information, please use Traveler's Handbook: In chapter enemies after killing mobs, you can track their respawn time. However, to do this, you must leave the area where the boss is located or leave the game for a while.

I've already READ him SO MUCH in 8 battles with him that I completed his last fight without taking damage.
Accidentally unlocked another achievement when I was leveling up Tignari and simultaneously trying to get the ill-fated "Nanomachines, my boy!" t_t
"The smell of fried mold in the morning."
In a single battle, destroy 6 Molders dropped by a Feathered Molder in the Burning state.
"State of exhaustion." No information.
um, the path of discovery, of course, was complicated to the point of impossible. I just jumped from a height into the portal and was pulled in, that’s all.
It's time to update the guide, add Kirara and Harlequin
Hello! Added, thanks.
How to get out of this dungeon later? I don’t understand where is the way out?
another achievement for him
nanomachines my boy
Thanks a lot! Added an achievement to the article.
Beat Giga-Mold with the help of Tignari, because there is no one else 👍
You can just fly to the portal from the nearest TP, in general the boss is easy, I accidentally ran into him with Xingqiu, Yana, Bennet and Raiden in a pack, put it in a minute and a half
You need to hit just the same electro + dendo damage, because the boss does not get stronger, but makes an enhanced attack from which it is easy to dodge, and after it he falls and can be beaten.
And if you impose a pyro status, he will start throwing out spores and summoning minions, which will not allow you to fully complete the event.
This is just a boss guide that talks about his mechanics. There is a separate article on fulfilling the conditions of the event: https://wotpack.freeanime.info/nabljudenija-za-krupnymi-zhivotnymi-v-genshin-impact-kak-projti-i-pobedit-bossov/
Guys, you are a little mistaken. The archons story quest does not need to be completed to access the mold. Fortunately, I decided to go check it out myself and eventually calmly fought him
Got it, thanks for the info! They clarified in the article that you only need to start it in order to open access to the location.
I didn't even start it as I'm still going through Inazuma's story 🙂
But what about the new achievement "Three strikes"? As I understand it, the molder needs to be transferred to the activation state and see 3 different attacks.
You have smart guide authors, could you write a guide for the 3.0 achievements already available from the list? https://genshin.honeyhunterworld.com/acat_0/?lang=RU
Achievement added, thanks!
Yeah, the authors are smart, but there are too many quests😅
We talked about achievements yesterday, but today everyone is busy, but we will try to write about them as soon as possible
