What are Specters in Genshin Impact?
There are six types of Specters, correlating to a different element type. Like slimes, Specters cannot be harmed by elemental abilities they share an affinity with. Specters are found throughout Inazuma and are worth farming for the Ascension materials they drop.
Upon death, the Specter will enlarge and explode in an AOE which deals elemental damage. This damage increases if they are in a ‘Rage’ state at the same time. ‘Rage’ is increased with every melee attack dealt to the Specter and increases their damage output over time.
