The bosses in Fontaine, known as the "Local Legends," will pose a great challenge as they possess high HP and Attack values, making them some of the most formidable enemies encountered in the game thus far.

A recent leak from Genshin Impact has unveiled a formidable group of legendary enemies that players will encounter and face in the upcoming Fontaine region. As the release of Fontaine approaches, the HoYoverse and leaker community have shared numerous details about the game's next area. Recent teasers from the developer have introduced several new characters for the RPG, with Lyney being the first five-star character representing the region. Now, a group of formidable adversaries that roam the vast expanse of Fontaine has been revealed.

Although not much information has been disclosed about the various overworld enemies that will be encountered in Genshin Impact's Fontaine region, this new area is set to introduce exciting gameplay mechanics. Diving and underwater combat will make their debut in Genshin Impact as a significant portion of the Hydro Archon's domain is covered by water. Leaks have also hinted at the inclusion of a wide range of new weapons and Artifacts in Fontaine. Furthermore, powerful enemies will be found throughout the aquatic region, promising thrilling challenges for players.

A new update has been shared by Genshin Impact leaker HomDGCat, revealing the existence of Fontaine's eight "Local Legends". These formidable enemies are a group of imposing overworld adversaries. The leak provides detailed information about these eight unique enemies, who can be found scattered throughout the Fontaine region and serve as mini-bosses. However, it does not specify the exact locations where each monster can be encountered in Fontaine. These Legend enemies are divided into four distinct classes. Players can expect these new creatures to make their debut in Fontaine's initial release, which will take place in Version 4.0.
