Here are some tips and tricks to help you beat the Inferno Rider in Wuthering Waves:

  • Keep your characters and weapons at a considerably high level. Since the Inferno Rider: Blazing Guardian appears as a level 35 world boss, it is suggested you have your characters at level 40 before attempting the fight.
  • The Inferno Rider will fight in a Jousting-like format, riding his bike and doing damage to you with a long spear-like weapon. The attacks will do a considerable amount of damage if they hit you.
  • Parry as much as you can, and spam your skills whenever possible. Parrying also depletes the Toughness meter of the boss, and you can stagger him for a few seconds when the bar is completely depleted. Get as many attacks as you can in this while.
  • Keep an eye out on your Concerto energies, and use your Intro and Outro skills to outmaneuver the Inferno Rider.
  • After a while, the Inferno Rider will ditch the bike and become a normal boss, while still wielding the spear-like weapon. His attacks are straightforward but do a lot of damage if they hit.
  • Keep an eye out on your characters' HP, as the Sea of Flames will also drain your health if you move out of the specific fight area. Healing abilities or echoes can be extremely beneficial in this fight.

After you beat the Inferno Rider, you can absorb his echo and spend 60 Waveplates to claim the rewards. Beating this boss counts towards your daily and weekly missions as well.
