How to break the electrical barriers on Inazuma in Genshin Impact

Scattered around Inazuma, the new area added to Genshin Impact in Update 2.0, players will find electrical barriers. They won't be able to fully make it through them and will normally have good reasons to want to try. Electro wards will often block resources or paths that players will want to explore.

Fortunately, overcoming these barriers is actually quite simple when you know what to look for. First, the barriers come in two forms, flat barriers that look like walls and dome-shaped barriers. Both can be bypassed in the same way.

You will need to search the area for a Sakura Thunder Bough. They look like little twisted tree trunks that curl around each other, giving off a faint purple light. When you find one, interact with it to get an Electrogranum. This will float beside you, giving you a temporary buff that will allow you to pass through barriers.

The location of the tree will not always be obvious or immediate. Sometimes you may need to use your Mysterious Memento Lens to scan a nearby Earth Kitsune to make it appear, so keep an eye on them at all times. Earth Kitsune are small fox-like statues that will have purple streaks of energy across them.

You also want to level up at the Sacred Tree in the Great Shrine to make sure you can overcome higher level barriers. The next levels will open at level 6 and level 12.
