Tips and Mechanics

The Setekh Wenut will spend a lot of time underground. It's highly recommended you bring a Bow character in order to destroy Windbite Bullets to give you a good window to do damage while also reducing resists. Make sure to bring an element that corresponds to your main damage type(s).

Most of the attacks are very easy to dodge, so the boss isn't particularly dangerous. However in Abyss, you need to make use of it's vulnerability windows in order to complete it in time for stars.

Burrow

The Wenut will periodically burrow into the ground following some attacks, changing its attack patterns. It is much less vulnerable during this time, so try to save your damage for when it is above ground and has larger windows for damage.

Windbite Bullets

The Wenut will periodically summon six Anemo orbs that float in the air for about 5 seconds. These can react with and explode. The element used to explode the orb will decrease the Wenut's resistance by 45%, bringing it to -20% total.

If you fail to destroy 2 orbs during this attack, the Wenut will absorb them back and fire a circular volley of bullets onto the area and Burrow.

The positions of the Windbite Bullets are always the same, and only one can be reached by melee attacks. Abilities will also tend to the Wenut as well. Bringing a Bow character is the most consistent way of destroying the orbs.

Once you destroy 2 orbs, the Wenut will be stunned by approximately 10 seconds, after which it will Burrow back into the ground. Once it burrows, the resistance debuff will be removed.
