One of Genshin Impact’s more important and vital functions is cooking and one of the more important ingredients early on is Raw Meat. Thankfully, one of the most common ways to get Raw Meat is to kill boars and they’re fairly commonplace in certain areas. In this guide, we will teach you the best places to find boars and the best ways to hunt them.

Where to Find and Hunt Boars

One of the more common enemy types in the game, boars spawn in a variety of spots in Mondstadt, Springvale, and Liyue and they’ll spawn either solo or in packs, so it’s one of those creature types that will just pop up eventually if you wander around enough. That being said, though, if you’re on the hunt for some Raw Meat specifically, here are some places that are particularly well known for boar spawns:

  • Springvale Forest
  • Windwail Highland
  • Wolvendom
  • Dawn Winery
  • Brightcrown Canyon

Hunting a pack of boars is one of the finer things about getting yourself some Raw Meat, honestly: singling one out might be easier and once you do so, getting it killed is fairly easy, as well. If you see a pack though, you may want to get more than one at a time and that’s where being creative with your approach really pays off.

Personally, if I’m hunting for some Raw Meat in the wild, I’m going to want to have some AoE effects in my party and then a party member with a ranged attack like a bow to pick off the survivors. I tend to lie in wait until the pack is mostly within the range of an AoE attack or ability and then if any manage to survive and scatter, I switch to my ranged attacker and pick off as many survivors as I can. It tends to be way more effective this way and, honestly, it isn’t truly perfect.
