Where Can I Find Andrius (Lupus Boreas) in Genshin Impact?
Andrius does not have a Trounce Domain, so you can’t teleport directly there. By traveling to Cecilia Garden, which is located just above Andrius’ location, and traveling south until you reach Andrius, you will be able to travel faster than by traveling to the two nearby waypoints.

Tips to Beat Andrius in Phase 1 of the Battle
Attack from a distance: You should attack Andrius with bow characters or dash in and out of attack range if you don’t have a bow character. Lupus Boreas’ attacks are mostly close-range.
Avoid frozen ground: You can dodge Andrius’ incoming attacks by staying away from frozen ground. Lupus Boreas’ attacks are primarily aimed at those standing on frozen ground.
Tips to Beat Andrius in Phase 2 of the Battle
Use your Elemental Skills and Bursts: The moment Lupus Boreas’ HP reaches half, he will immediately switch to phase two and begin charging. During this time, you can replenish your stamina and wait for your abilities to cool down, so you can use your Elemental Skills and Bursts to take Andrius down.
