Molds в Genshin impact - regular opponents from the category mystical beasts. These enemies are found throughout Sumeru. The resources that you can get from them are used to exalt characters and weapons.

This guide will show you where to find Molds in Genshin Impact on the Sumeru map and how to farm them efficiently.

Types of molds

Molds are divided into many small types of different elements and larger molds. Each enemy has 10% resistance to all types of damage, excluding some.

Soaring molders

• Floating Hydro Mold. This enemy is able to create a bubble around itself for its own protection, as well as launch it at the player, dealing Hydro damage. He is not an elemental being, that is not elementally charged default (like slime).

• Soaring dendro mold is capable of firing Dendro energy balls at the player: one projectile, three projectiles, and one with increased damage. The enemy has resistance in 25% to your element.

• Soaring Anemo Mold. Shoots spheres of Anemo energy at the player, dealing 60% of Anemo's attack damage. After being cast on it, Electro will release 3 spheres, after being cast on Pyro, it will increase the damage to 100% of the Attack characteristic. He can also push, dealing physical damage.

Circling Molds

In total there are three types of such creatures. They are distinguished by a resistance of 20% to Dendro elements and their own.

• Whirling Electro Mold. The peculiarity of this enemy lies in the fact that during the attack, he, quickly rotating, flies towards the player. The modified skill looks the same, but it tries to crash into its opponent.

• Whirling cryo molder. During its normal attack, this enemy hides underground and quickly approaches the player. In modified versions of this skill, he either hooks his opponent three times or deals more damage.

• Whirling Pyro Mold. Sticks into the ground and after charging, it explodes, dealing 60% of Pyro's attack as AoE damage. After casting, Electro will speed up the attack and will make 3 explosions in a row. Once cast, Elemental Pyro will reduce attack speed, but increase explosion area and damage (up to 100% of attack). Also able to quickly rotate and deal physical damage (30% attack).

Stretch molds

His usual attack is that he stretches, charges and spins his hat, dealing damage around. They have 20% resistance to Dendro and their element.

Three varieties can be found in Sumeru:

• Stretchable pyro mold. During the skill, this enemy jumps into the air and falls on the spot where the player is standing. This attack can be enhanced: increase speed and reduce cooldown, or increase normal and AoE damage.

• Stretching Anemo Mold. During the skill, this enemy fires up to 3 projectiles at the player. Strengthening, it can either increase the speed and number of charges, or damage.

• Stretchable Geo Mold. During the skill, it charges and begins to “tumble” towards the player. When empowered, it either increases speed and reduces cooldown, or increases damage.

• Stretchable electro mold. Stretches and rotates the hat, dealing 30% of the attack as physical damage. Once cast, Electro increases attack speed. Attacking Pyro with an element will reduce the speed, but increase the damage by up to 60% and the chance to knock back the hero. Also shoots balls at the enemy, dealing 60% of the attack as Electro damage. After casting, Electro will shoot 3 balls in a row. After casting, Pyro will increase the damage of the balls to 100% attack.

Moroviki

Carrots are large in size, and their resistance to Dendro and their element is 30%. There are four types in total:

• Earth Hydro Carrier. The usual attack is a simple kick. Sometimes he summons 1 or 2 large water bubbles and launches them at the player.

• Winged Dendro Morovik. Can fly. The enemy has resistance in 40% to Dendro damage. In a normal attack, he flaps his wings at his opponent. From time to time, the trooper creates a Dendro ball and launches it at the player, sometimes the enemy can fly up and drop 2 bombs.

• Winged cryo morovik. He, like his Dendro brother, is distinguished by the ability to fly. A normal attack is to strike the player with wings. During the skills, the morovik goes to ram, dealing damage.

• Earth Geo Morovik. Able to perform a combo of 2 physical hits (75 and 80% attack), rush to the target with a run (up to 85% attack), and also jump, hitting the ground with a hat and causing AoE Geo damage. In all cases, applying Electro will increase the speed of attacks, and Pyro - damage.

There are two major routes on the slope of Gadha, however both are underground and consist of cave systems. To unlock full access to farming in this area, you will need to complete the quest chain Agnihotra Sutra.

The entrance to the first cave is located along the path from the teleport marked on the route to the north. Run along the road until you see a building with a riddle and a chest on the left: opposite it is a descent. For a complete cleaning, you will need to lower the water. The very first group of enemies is on the surface.

To start the second route, move to the Dendro Archon Statue in Gandarkhva, and run north from it. Find a small house, behind which is the entrance to the cave: it is blocked by roots. It is also worth going around the relief from above, outside the cave you will also meet Plesennikov.

Thicket Apam

There are 2 routes in Apam Thicket: 1 on the west side and 1 on the east side. There are not many molds and it can be difficult to find them: some underground, some in trees. It is worth considering this place as one of the last in the global pharma route. Underground caves are visited in a quest Prayer for rain on fertile land.

Ruins of Dahri

All molds in the Ruins of Dahri are located on the eastern part of the mountain: from the southern teleport, go along the edge of the cliff, moving towards the Ruins themselves, where there are a few more enemies.

At the Caravan Ribat

Several bands of moulders are scattered along the sides of the trail to Aaru Village. Also, 3 groups can be found in the north and northwest of the Caravan Ribat.

At the village of Aaru

Not a very convenient route due to the need to climb mountains a lot. Molds are found on the heights of the cliffs surrounding the village. The most promising route can be built from the teleport in the northwest of the village: it is located on a hill and it is easy to get to 3 groups of mobs from it.

At Hajj Nisut

Around the temple on the tops of the mountains, as well as in the ruins located nearby, there are many molds. In addition to clearing targets near the temple itself, you can go hunting from the nearby teleporters marked on the screenshot.

South of Dar al-Shifa

From the teleportation point to the south of the former hospital, a lot of molds and pests are easily accessible. Many of them chose 2 oases, one of which is located near the temple with huge obelisk (disappear if you clear it).

However, if you know where the caves are, you can get around everything and get spores relatively quickly. In this case, we will present a map of the underground regions in the Land of Upper Setekh.

Some caves open only after completing the world task Afratu's dilemma.

Desert Colonnade

In a cave west of the Tomb

A lot of molders and blighters can also be found in the dungeons west of the Tomb of King Deshret, but the path to all mobs is initially winding: you need to go around to gain access to the second part Sobek caves, where is also hidden wilting zone. Don't forget to open a short path between the parts of the cave (indicated in the screenshot).

In the north of the location

Start with a one-time dungeon Garden of Endless Columns and run south. The path forks: you can go west to beat the molders at the huge obelisk (if you haven’t cleared it), or go east, ending your path at Dune Feast. Several mobs are inside the small pyramid, on the lower level.
