Hu Tao will be one of the best characters to use against Childe, as her single target Pyro DMG is one of the strongest in the game. Xingqiu and Albedo can provide supplemental off-field DMG and reactions, and Zhongli can provide shields to protect you from most attacks.

Childe has 3 Phases you must beat before you can clear the encounter. In Phase one Childe only uses Hydro Elemental attacks. In Phase 2 Childe switches to only Electro Elemental attacks and in Phase 3 Childe uses both Hydro and Electro Elemental attacks interchangeably.
In Phases 1 and 2 Childe deploys a shield that reduces incoming DMG. Breaking both of these shields will knock Childe down creating a perfect chance to strike. Save your Elemental Skills or Bursts for when Childe deploys his shield to quickly break it and go all out.
After Phase 2, Childe will occasionally mark the player for a high damaging lighting strike which can easily KO a party member. This attack can by cancelled by standing in the Pyro effect in the edge of the field which will remove the mark.
Childe's Phases | Reommended Potions |

Phase 1 |
![]() |
Phase 2 |
![]() |
Phase 3 |
Since Childe's elements change depending on the Phase, we recommended to prepare Elemental Resistance potions beforehand. Childe's attacks deal quite a bit of damage so being able to mitigate 25% of Hydro and Electro DMG will help secure survivability.
