Genshin Impact is a game that requires you to gather items in order to level up your character. To do this, you will need to get boss drops, most of which come from a boss of the same element as your character. The Thunder Manifestation is Inazuma's electro boss, which looks a lot like an Oceanid.
In order to level up characters like Raiden Shogun, you will need to find this boss and beat it multiple times to collect Storm Beads. The guide below goes over where to find the Thunder Manifestation, along with how to beat the boss in battle.
Where To Find The Thunder Manifestation
The Thunder Manifestation is located on Seirai Island on a platform that forms high up in the air. The boss fight won't become available until the end of the quest Seirai Stormchasers. The quest can be obtained from Katherine at the Inazuma Adventurer's Guild and will send you to Seirai island to help two adventurers clear up the island's raging storm.

After a bit of dialog and a few easy-to-complete puzzles, you will cause the Thunder Manifestations arena to form in the air. You will want to grab the nearby waypoint, and to complete the quest; you'll also need to fight the Thunder Manifestation for the first time.
How To Beat The Thunder Manifestation
Once you have unlocked the Thunder Manifestation, you can freely battle it just about any time you want. This is a boss that can be a bit irritating to deal with as its attacks are aggressive and will hone in on your character. Here are some powerful moves you should watch out for during the fight:
-
An electro square that will follow you around the field.
- Sprint away from the attack continuously as it deals massive damage and can quickly kill your character if trapped inside.
-
Watch out for the boss summoning two different electro walls that quickly close in on your character.
- Being hit by both can easily kill your character, and touching either one will cause a good chunk of damage.
-
Avoid the boss when it dives towards you,.
- It will usually do this twice in a row, and a box will appear that reveals its trajectory.
In addition to this, the Thunder Manifestation has an AoE attack, can summon lighting to strike the field, and has several ranged attacks. You will want to mainly focus on dodging and hitting the Thunder Manifestation after it gets done attacking you.
Cryo and pyro characters are excellent against this boss, making Ganyu, Yoimiya, and Eula great picks.
One way you can make the fight go by much faster is by taking on the Thunder Manifestation in co-op. This way, one player can take the Thunder Manifestations aggro while the other focuses on damaging it. Be sure to also use food as well as Insulation Potions to negate some of the damage.
