How to beat the Emperor of Fire and Iron in Genshin Impact

The Emperor of Fire and Iron is a fairly tough boss with a variety of AoE attacks that leave dangerous zones of lava across the arena. It also has a very powerful attack where its horns start glowing, and it stops attacking. When this happens, run away from it if you don't have a powerful shield character like Zhongli.

Also, note that its weak points are also its horns. When it lowers its head, you can land some Elemental Skills and charged attacks on the horns for a lot of extra damage.

After defeating it, you can gain the following rewards, including the Emperor's Resolution boss drop. This material is currently only used to ascend Lyney.
