How do I unlock the hidden achievement for feeding the boars in Inazuma in Genshin Impact?

To unlock the hidden achievement for feeding the boars in Inazuma in Genshin Impact, you need to complete a specific task involving the boars found in the region. This achievement is tied to a hidden mechanic that requires patience and careful execution. Here is a detailed guide to help you achieve this.

The achievement is called "Boared to Death," and it requires you to feed a boar in Inazuma and then defeat it. The key to this achievement is understanding the mechanics of feeding boars and ensuring you follow the steps correctly. Boars in Inazuma are found in specific locations, and you need to approach them carefully to avoid scaring them away. The boars will run if you get too close or make sudden movements, so stealth is essential.

First, you need to locate the boars. In Inazuma, boars can be found in areas like the Konda Village and the surrounding forests. Once you spot a boar, approach it slowly. You can use characters with stealth abilities, like Sayu, whose passive talent decreases the chance of startling wildlife. Alternatively, you can use the gadget called the Omni-Ubiquity Net, which allows you to capture animals without scaring them, but for this achievement, you need to feed the boar directly.

To feed the boar, you need to have berries in your inventory. Berries are a common resource found throughout Teyvat, and you can gather them from bushes in Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma. Once you have berries, approach the boar slowly and interact with it to feed it. After feeding the boar, it will become friendly and will not run away immediately. This is your window to defeat it.

For combat, you can use any character, but it is recommended to use a character with a quick and precise attack to ensure you defeat the boar before it runs away. Characters like Keqing, Ayaka, or any bow user like Ganyu or Yoimiya are good choices because they can deal damage quickly. Make sure your character is equipped with appropriate artifacts and weapons to maximize damage output. For example, using a character with a high critical rate and critical damage build will help you defeat the boar in one or two hits.

Common mistakes to avoid include scaring the boar before feeding it or failing to defeat it quickly after feeding. If the boar runs away, you will need to find another one and start the process over. Additionally, make sure you have enough berries in your inventory before attempting this achievement, as running out of berries mid-task can be frustrating.

Advanced techniques include using characters with crowd control abilities to immobilize the boar after feeding it. Characters like Venti or Sucrose can use their elemental skills to keep the boar in place, giving you more time to defeat it. Another optimization is to use food buffs that increase your attack or critical rate, ensuring you can defeat the boar in a single hit.

Team composition is not crucial for this achievement, but having a character with stealth abilities or crowd control can make the process easier. For example, a team with Sayu for stealth and Venti for crowd control would be ideal. However, you can achieve this with any character as long as you follow the steps carefully.

In terms of artifacts and weapons, focus on maximizing your damage output. Use artifacts that increase attack, critical rate, and critical damage. Weapons with high base attack and critical rate substats are also beneficial. For example, the Primordial Jade Cutter or the Mistsplitter Reforged are excellent choices for sword users.

Specific examples include finding a boar near Konda Village, approaching it slowly, feeding it berries, and then using a quick attack to defeat it. If you fail, simply look for another boar in the area and try again. With patience and careful execution, you will unlock the "Boared to Death" achievement in no time.
