Hello fellow traveler! Have you been trying to ascend your new Dendro characters in Genshin Impact but struggling to find enough Quelled Creepers? As a Genshin expert and avid Nahida main, let me help you out.

In this extensive guide, I‘ll be sharing everything you need to know about getting Quelled Creepers in Genshin Impact 3.2, from drop rates to spawn locations and boss strategies. Stick with me to the end and you‘ll be drowning in Quelled Creepers in no time!

What Are Quelled Creepers in Genshin Impact?

For those new to the world of Teyvat, Quelled Creepers are a vital ascension material for leveling up Dendro characters past certain thresholds. Specifically, they are used to ascend the new 5-star Dendro Catalyst user Nahida and 4-star Cryo Sword user Layla.

Based on the item description, Quelled Creepers are crystallized forms of Dendro energy that have been shaped over thousands of years by the Dendro Hypostasis. By defeating this new boss added in version 3.2, you can obtain Quelled Creepers as drops.

Here‘s a quick rundown of how many Quelled Creepers you‘ll need to fully ascend your Dendro heroes:

Character Quelled Creepers Needed
Nahida (5*) 46
Layla (4*) 61

As you can see, leveling up these new characters takes a substantial amount of Quelled Creepers. That‘s why having a reliable farming strategy is so important.

Where To Get Quelled Creepers in Genshin Impact

Currently, the only source for Quelled Creepers in Genshin Impact 3.2 is the Dendro Hypostasis world boss. This new addition is located inside a cave south of Sumeru‘s Dar al-Shifa region, near the Alcazarzaray Waypoint.

Specifically, the cave entrance can be found at the coordinates (X:3516, Y:711) on the Teyvat interactive map. Just glide south from the waypoint towards the cliffside and you‘ll notice the cave below.

Drop down carefully and make your way inside to find the Dendro Hypostasis arena. Be sure to activate the waypoint first so you can teleport directly back later.

Spawn Rate & Resin Cost

The Dendro Hypostasis respawns every Monday and Friday at the usual daily reset time. You can collect rewards from it twice per week.

It costs 30 Original Resin per attempt. Make sure to factor this in when planning your weekly boss runs and resin spending.

Now let‘s discuss the best characters and strategies to take down this tricky new boss!

The Dendro Hypostasis is resistant to Dendro damage but weak against Pyro and Electro. You‘ll want to construct your party accordingly:

Suggested Team Composition:

  • Main DPS – Pyro or Electro character (Yanfei, Keqing, Razor, etc)

  • Sub DPS – Bennett, Xiangling

  • Support – Fischl, Kuki Shinobu

  • Healer – Jean, Barbara, Qiqi

Bennett is highly recommended for his Attack buff, healing, and Pyro application. Combine him with an Electro like Fischl for Overload reactions to shred the boss‘s HP.

Avoid taking Hydro characters like Xingqiu as they are not very effective. Cryo can work to freeze the vines but Pyro and Electro will deal more damage overall.

Boss Attack Patterns and Strategies

Now let‘s break down the key attack patterns and mechanics of the Dendro Hypostasis so you can dodge them properly:

Vine Eruption – Vines burst out of the ground in an AoE attack. Dodge sideways immediately when the ground cracks to avoid taking damage.

Seed Bomb – Generates tracking seeds that chase your character and explode on contact. Keep moving and do not let them touch you.

Linear Laser – Fires a long-range beam in a straight line. Strafe perpendicular to the beam direction to avoid it.

Spinning Laser – Rapidly shoots lasers while spinning around the arena. Try to position behind the boss to avoid taking hits.

Vine Cage – Traps characters inside an AoE cage of vines, draining HP rapidly. Quickly swap to another character to free them.

Revive Sequence – When the core is exposed, smaller cubes will spawn around the edges. Destroy them quickly to reveal the vulnerable core and damage phase again.

Here are some other tips to deal with its mechanics:

  • Burst down the core when exposed for maximum damage.

  • In co-op, coordinate skills and bursts during the vulnerable phases.

  • If trapped in the vine cage, switch characters ASAP before it drains all your HP.

  • Bring a shielder like Zhongli or Diona to block vine eruption and laser damage.

  • Use range attacks to destroy revival cubes if low on stamina.

With practice, you‘ll get the timing down and be able to predict and react to all its attacks. Patience and persistence is key!

Drops and Rewards

After a grueling battle, it‘s time to reap your rewards! Here are the possible drops when defeating the Dendro Hypostasis at higher World Levels:

  • Quelled Creeper x3-5

  • Dendro Hypostasis Material (Chunk/Fragment/Gemstone)

  • Adventurer‘s Experience

  • Mora

The exact quantities will depend on your World Level. The key drop is obviously the Quelled Creepers. Let‘s take a closer look at the actual drop rates:

Quelled Creeper Drop Rates:

World Level Drop Rate
WL 6 50%
WL 7 57.5%
WL 8 65%

As you can see, the drop rate improves significantly as your World Level increases. By WL8, you can expect 3-4 Quelled Creepers per run on average.

Pro Tip: Ascend your World Level as high as possible to maximize Quelled Creeper drops!

Besides the boss drops, don‘t forget to also collect the loot from the flower that spawns after its defeat. This will provide extra ascension materials.

How Many Runs For Max Ascension?

So how many Dendro Hypostasis runs will you need to gather enough Quelled Creepers for fully ascending your Dendro characters? Let‘s find out!

Assuming WL8 drop rates, you can expect around 4 Quelled Creepers per 30 resin run on average.

For Nahida, you need 46 total Quelled Creepers to reach Ascension 6. That would take approximately 12 boss runs over 6 weeks.

For Layla, 61 Creepers are required, so around 16 runs over 8 weeks.

Tip: Crafting Dendro Hypostasis Material chunks into higher tiers at the alchemy bench can help speed up the process and reduce runs.

While it may seem daunting at first, rest assured that persistently defeating the Dendro Hypostasis 2-3 times per week will steadily provide enough Quelled Creepers over time.

Co-Op Strategies

If you‘re really struggling with the Dendro Hypostasis, don‘t be afraid to call for backup!

Tackling bosses in Co-op makes the fight much easier due to the combined firepower and team synergy. The extra characters also provide more elemental coverage to break its shields faster.

Here are some Co-op tips:

  • Have each player focus on a different element like Pyro, Electro, Cryo.

  • Coordinate elemental bursts during its vulnerable phases for massive damage.

  • Call out when you‘ve been trapped so allies can cover and free you.

  • If low on health, hang back providing support until healed enough to re-engage.

  • Stick close to Bennett‘s burst circle for the Attack buff.

  • Mark the revival cubes with pins so all players target them quickly.

With 2 or more players, the Dendro Hypostasis becomes much more manageable. You can farm Quelled Creepers faster and spend Resin quicker.

Future Sources

While currently only available from the Dendro Hypostasis, future Genshin Impact updates may introduce additional sources for Quelled Creepers:

Dendro Regisvine – A standard boss like the other plant Regisvines could provide another farmable source.

Dendro Enemies – Common enemies like Fungi could have a small chance of dropping them.

Dendro Artifact Domain – Like other elemental domains, could add Creepers to the loot pool.

Reputation Rewards – Dendro region reputations could offer some as rank-up rewards.

Events – Special event shops and battle pass systems may include them as earnable items.

For now, the Dendro Hypostasis remains the sole provider. But more options could appear in time!

Why Ascension Matters

Before we wrap up, let‘s discuss why ascending your characters in Genshin Impact makes such a big difference:

  • Increased Stats – Massive boosts to HP, ATK, DEF, Elemental Mastery.

  • Talent Levels – Ascension unlocks an extra talent level beyond Lv.10.

  • Passives – New passive talents unlocked at Ascension 4 and 6.

  • Resistance – Higher defense against interruption, damage, and elemental reactions.

  • Max level – Only by ascending can you level characters beyond 80 to 90.

These bonuses add up to make a huge impact. Your characters will deal way more damage, survive longer, and provide better support when fully ascended.

For key characters like Nahida, it‘s almost mandatory to max out their ascension and talent levels if you want to tackle the Spiral Abyss and tougher lategame challenges. The difference will be very apparent.

Quelled Creepers are the critical material that makes Dendro ascension possible. That‘s why all Nahida wanters must become Quelled Creeper havers!

To Sum Up…

Phew, that was a lot of information to cover! Here are the key tips to recap:

  • Quelled Creepers drop from the Dendro Hypostasis

  • Located in a cliffside cave south of Dar al-Shifa

  • Use Pyro and Electro characters to counter

  • Dodge its vine and seed attacks

  • Co-op makes it easier to defeat

  • Ascend your World Level to increase drop rates

  • Expect around 12-16 runs to max ascend a character

  • Fully ascending characters is very worthwhile
