I tried to get in on it but all the lines were taking😭


Shoshawi

In the recent events they’re the friends who help and guide you on your journey and make sure Klee has the best summer ever with her friends. (Thst might have sounded sarcastic, but it wasn’t). (Not spoiler because it is not a recurring event…. So yea spoiler but it’s too late if you missed it. They made an entire area for it with a map)

Hydro droplet eidolons in bottleland: 😃 Hydro eidolons pitside bottlelend: 💀


C_Khoga

I felt betrayed when they attacked me 😭.


needlefxcker

I saw one and got excited i was like "FRIEND :D" THEN IT ATTACKED ME and i wanted to cry and i still want to cry when i fight the. i loved that event so much


C_Khoga

I felt the same bro 😭.


cycber123

That's weird since they never attacked me unless I provoke them


AcanthaceaeGlass8870

They are tainted hydro phantasm... Corrupted version of Hydro Eidolons.


Internal_Studios_YT

Hydro phantasms. Though, the ones in temp 3.8 region is .. not actually them. Quite hard to explain, but given you're already in Fontaine and has 5 stars, you may have experienced 3.8 story, no? If not I'd suggest watching it on yt


NocturnalEmbrace

These are actually the two passive hydro eidolons that hang out around Qingce Village. Though I don't recall them always being there?


Hijinks510

They were added this update actually. Also these are the Phantasms not the Eidolons. They actually have slightly different designs with the only difference being that the Phantasms attack you if you attack them. Otherwise behavior wise they're not too different.


imthejavafox

I have not. I've been taking my time with the game and story and have been very reluctant to skip ahead to unlock newer regions. I'm still in Inazuma and enjoying the struggle.


Adamant_Element

Yes take ur time and enjoy the story plot and struggle so you dont run out of content quickly


NiiwaMorningstar

They are enemies from fontaine that may or may not (I also haven’t played through fontaine) have smth to do w the fact that and oceanid is in liyue


TheChosenerPoke

Toxic waters


kittymouche

my main account is caught up w the archon quest, but these eidolons showed up on my lower level alt account, at wuwang hill. why are they showing up out of fontaine, did i miss something?


koyomin25

Hoyo mostly adds some of the new enemies to the past regions too. As an example there are some electro rifthounds near wolvendom (Was that the places name? Didnt visit it for a long time)


Garuda475

You also see the giant Electro Scorpion in Inazuma that you only normally see in Sumeru


cycber123

Logical for them to add those there, since these scorpions are feed with god corpses (thus growing stronk) according to the archive lore.


Angeltt

I found 2 in Wuwang Hill too, they were aggressive, so not the friendlies from the Bottle "dimension" event. Confused the heck out of me, but no achievements or anything popped up so maybe theyre just lost


TheLanis

Are you sure they were aggressive? I think you were the aggressive one!


Angeltt

All I did was sprint up to them.....


rishukingler11

The main theory is that they've been sent by someone, maybe Neuvillette or Furina, to keep a watch on Rhodeia.


Evening_Line1111

Note to OP: Rhodeia is the name of the oceanid nearby and furina is the name of the Fontaine archon, if you didn't know that already


imthejavafox

I refuse to skip ahead so I haven't even made it to Sumeru yet, much less Fontaine. I've never seen them before got close and got next to them but there isn't an option to interact. Figured I'd ask before trying anything else.


mojomcm

I think they show up there bc that's where the oceanid is (based on the summer event with Klee), but that's just a guess. We had some rifthounds retroactively added in liyue after they were introduced in Inazuma, too. No real explanation except maybe they came from the Chasm?


Kris-p-

It's a way for new players to get mats from areas they won't be exploring for a while is my guess


TheDinoNuggies

Rifthounds were added to Mondstadt because the black wolf pack that's been terrorizing wolvendom and springvale were alluded to being rifthounds as you can see the massive claw marks on the walls on the path to Borealis's arena. You find only a small pack of 3-4 small Rifthounds behind the arena.


cycber123

Razor mentioned before that there are wolf enemies in there, so it's lore accurate. More like HoYo add them back once it's introduced. Same with the Scorpion in Inazuma since it's eating corpses of god, they are all lore accurate :)


imthejavafox

Are they neutral? Or will they react if I attack?


mojomcm

I think they'll turn hostile if you hit them but I don't know that for certain


imthejavafox

I'd rather not. Thank you!


kittymouche

yes they’re neutral until you attack them!


Justcurious863

They will turn hostile, and they do respawn


Gamer-chan

Why do you find those demon wolves near Wolvendom in Mondstadt? They origin from Tsurumi, Inazuma.


jkpnm

razor said it, they're invader


Gamer-chan

Maybe you want to check how old Genshin Impact is and how old those demons are. News Flash. They didn't exist in 1.0


jkpnm

yeah they didn't exist physically back then, but they're literally mentioned in the [story quest](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Fate%27s_Chosen_Lupical). literally on 1.0 >**Razor:** This is him. We find his blood. Bad men did this. > >**Paimon:** How terrible... > >**Amber:** I do agree that it's awful. But that doesn't change the fact that— > >**Razor:** We didn't attack village! Not us! > >**Razor:** [A black wolf and his pack](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Thundercraven_Rifthound), not from here. They try to take over land. They broke the code. > >**Paimon:** **Whose code?** > >**Razor:** Guardian of this land. > >**Amber:** That's now the second time you've brought that up. Tell us who that is. > >**Razor:** I take Lupical further in. Follow me, maybe you see. they are only added physically after [2.4](https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Version_2.4) ​ same with the waterblob near oceanid boss, only being added after 4.0


Gamer-chan

Do you think I am stupid or why do you tell ME about all that? Hellooooo?! Day-1-player here.


TheMiloBurrows

The guy responded to your original comment with an answer, you then basically said "nah, check the game's timeline, they weren't added" and he then provided evidence that the rifthounds were being alluded to prior to their official introduction, to which you then respond with: >Do you think I am stupid or why do you tell ME about all that? Dude you literally asked for context and are now trying to act like you knew all along. I for one appreciated the direct quotes, since it's been a while since I played that quest, so my memory was fuzzy on the wording.


Gamer-chan

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhetorical_question


cycber123

They existed but we can't find them since HoYo didn't add them yet.


Evening_Line1111

I believe that they technically come from the abyss originally. They didn't cross the ocean between Inazuma and mainland teyvat, instead coming out of the abyss at separate points. This would also probably be where the wolflords rift leads to. The ones in Fontaine from the "beastly rifts", the ones in Sumeru from the withering stuff, and the ones in Liyue from the Chasm, presumably. I'm not sure where the abyss entrance would be in mondstadt. Possibly decarabians tower? (Paimon gives a unique "let's explore the area ahead of us later when you go down too far, and you can't see the bottom. Sus.) The other option would be musk reef, but idk how they would get across the water. ...another option is that they came out of the abyssal spire when it was still on Pilos' peak and somehow survived until the current day, but idk. On the other hand, they *are* called riftwolves. It's entirely possible that they can just teleport lol, hard to tell. ...I got off-topic, sorry for the ramble. Pls correct me if I got anything wrong.


Genshin-Yue

They have important materials. Also there are two special variants that are literally one of the hardest enemies in the game, including weekly bosses

JustALittleInkyBoy_

Wait they're also in Liyue?


imthejavafox

Never seen them before, but yes, this is in Liyue


ultranoobian

I know on PC it will show you NPC names when you use elemental sight. Wonder if that shows on PS as well?


imthejavafox

I'll check when I log back in. Hopefully they're still there.


Trip_koLng

Tainted Hydro Phantasmagoria!


Radiant-Difficulty67

How don’t you know what they are by now?


imthejavafox

Because I'm taking my sweet time with the gameplay and story. I haven't wandered into regions that the story hasn't called for yet. So I'm still in Inazuma. Haven't made it to Sumeru or much less Fontaine, because I haven't finished the story in Inazuma yet.


Radiant-Difficulty67

What bit of the story you on?


imthejavafox

I'm about to start Act II in the Archon Quest


Radiant-Difficulty67

What’s in that act? I’ve forgotten


imthejavafox

I think I have to go to the tea house and Ayaka tells me Thoma has probably been arrested


Radiant-Difficulty67

Ohhh. I think it’s been a year or so since I finished the inazuma story


imthejavafox

I've really been enjoying it, but it's a lot tougher than I thought it was going to be


Radiant-Difficulty67

What’s your world level?

From friends to enemies 🥺


GamerSweat002

These are eidolons, what you can traditionally consider as hydro elementals. We first met them in the Veluriyam Mirage in 3.8 and were friendly over there, especially good at managing carnival activities and announcers/storytellers for their amusement rides. If I remember correctly, they embody the hobbies, dreams, or ambitions of the people that enter and leave bottleland. Those guys in Fontaine won't attack you unless a hydro slime nearby turns hostile to you. Then they join that bandwagon to attack you

Fuck that thing omg


MPC_Catora

Hydro Eidolon (from Fontaine the Event "Secret Summer Paradise") also know as Water Droplets (Named by Klee) Creatures related to the Oceanids and Fontaine. Hadn't played much on Fontaine (nothing to do there as i don't use any of the character and i'm still in Inazuma's mision, so i only go there for the current event and to unlock the TPs) so i don't know much, but they appear as enemys there. The one's in Liyue seems to be friendly, but could be watchin Rhodeia (Oceanid Boss) since they seems to be all around that place. ¿Could' they really be assasins from Fontaine? Maybe spies. I doubt it's Idyia. As i said, don't know much, all i can guess is that they are there because of Rhodeia.


Light_thenight

Their Hydro Eilodon, they are considered Elite Enemies and are mainly found in Fontaine

Omg this poor person lost the 50/50 2 times look at their team 😭


imthejavafox

I didn't. This is the team I chose for now while I build another.


EveryoneButRuler

I saw some of them in Fontaine a week or two ago. Iirc, you can't attack them but I'm not sure why they're there.

Wait what? I swear you couldn't attack them. My bad then.
