In this article, we told you where to find Cocijo, how to make her appear and how to fight her correctly in order to get three possible achievements.

How to open the achievement “Cocijo” in Genshin Impact

Where to find Cocijo

• Location: Waters of Ameyalco

The enemy is located in the territory of the Folk of the Springs tribe. Teleport to the statue of the Seven Archons at the Waters of Ameyalco, and then turn southeast. A round arena will be visible near the water – this is where Kosiho will appear.

Initially, the opponent is not at the location. To lure the turtle, you need to destroy several groups of electric crystals located along the perimeter of the arena. This can be done using Pyro attacks.

When all the crystals are destroyed, Kosiho will appear in the very center of the arena, and you can engage in battle with her.

Recommended commands

Kosiho has resistance to the Electro element, and can also create an Electro shield, which makes Electro characters in combat with her inappropriate. It will be most convenient to use Cryo, Pyro or Dendro characters to remove the shield, a combination of Cryo and Hydro elements to freeze the opponent. Archers and pocket damage dealers will also be useful, capable of knocking down the Electro shield from a distance to avoid damage reflected from the shield.

It is also worth considering that Kosiho is a strong opponent with a large health reserve, capable of defeating a playable character with one blow. In this regard, it is recommended to take shielders and healers to the squad to increase the survivability of the squad. To avoid certain attacks of Kosiho, you can take characters with increased mobility to the squad, for example, Mona with an alternative sprint, Sayu or Ye Lan with their elemental skills that allow you to quickly move around the field.

How to defeat Kosiho

The composition of the squad and battle tactics may change depending on level of achievement received:

• For the first level of achievement for 5 Source Stones, you need to defeat Kosiho by any means. At this stage, you can cope using characters with shields and melee fighters;
• For the second level of achievement for 10 Source Stones, you will need to defeat Kosiho before she creates an Electro Shield. Here you will need strong damage dealers and supports who are able to defeat the opponent in a limited time;
• For the third level of achievement for 20 Primogems, you need to defeat Kosiho after removing the Electro Shield from the turtle, while the characters should not be affected by the damage reflected from the shield. Here you will need the help of ranged characters: archers and catalysts, since only they will not be affected by the damage reflected from the shield. Keep in mind that the reflected damage will be protected even if it hits a player character with a shield.

The turtle's attacks can vary depending on whether Kosiho is in a shield or not. In any state, one of its main attacks is thunder spheres that chase the character across the field. They can be easily avoided by making a hook around the turtle:

Kosiho can also start spinning rapidly, chasing the player character, and jump in place, sending out pulse waves. In both cases, it is recommended to stay away from the turtle to avoid fatal damage:

There is an indicator below the legend's health bar that charges when damage is dealt. When the indicator is completely filled, Kosiho activates a shield. Under the shield's influence, some of Kosiho's attacks are modified, and all damage dealt by the game character to the turtle is reflected by the shield and can hit a nearby character:

Under the shield's influence, Kosiho raises her head up and launches a hail of lightning that strikes the ground. Also, under the shield's influence, her spinning attacks are accompanied by the release of spinning shells:

To avoid damage reflected from Kosiho's shield, in particular to get the third achievement, you need to destroy Kosiho's shield with ranged attacks. The best ones for this are Cryo, Pyro, and Dendro archers, as well as some catalysts with a large attack radius, such as Yan Fei and Ning Guang:

Also, almost all of Kosiho's attacks, with the exception of the thunderball and reflective damage, can be avoided on high ground. Climb onto a rock near the arena and attack from there before activating the shield, dodging the thunderballs. When Kosiho activates the shield, keep your distance from the turtle, and after removing the shield, you can return to the high ground.

If you have Furina on your account, you can use her to get the second achievement without engaging in combat. First, pick up a Colohosaurus at the nearest body of water and take it to the edge of the arena:

Leave Saurian form and use Furina's Elemental Skill in Ushii Stance to summon three salon members. Then quickly switch back to Saurian form so Koshiho doesn't have time to react to the player. This way, the turtle won't attack and the pocket salon members will deal damage to it. You need to repeat the sequence until Kosiho is defeated.

You can also make the fight with Kosiho easier by lowering the world level or co-op mode: join a player with a low adventure rank if you are an experienced player, and if you are a newbie, ask a high-ranking player to help you defeat the local legend. However, keep in mind that to get the third achievement, neither you nor other participants in the co-op mode should be hit by damage reflected from Kosiho's shield.
