Big Wei Hilichurl Locations

After the version 1.1 update, there is a new enemy added into the game, the Unusual Hilichurl - Menace of the Mansion. From the version 1.1 developer live stream, we know that this hilichurl is essentially the company's CEO, Liu Wei, or nicknamed "Big Wei", in hilichurl form. He is meant to be a stress relief enemy for players to beat up.

There can only be 1 Wei hilichurl at a time. Once you defeat him, he will spawn again somewhere on one of the locations. After you defeat him a second time, he will respawn 12 hours later, for 2 more attempts. If you want to rush the achievement for defeating him multiple times, you can join another player's world.

The unusual hilichurl is not a tough enemy to fight. He only has about 3 attacks. 2 of them involve him throwing items from his suitcase, which can sometimes be primogem(s). There is nothing you can do about the Primogem, other than to watch it get shattered when it hits you or the ground.

After defeating him, he will leave a very important item behind.

The first time you defeat him, you will get an achievement: "...Well, That Was Strange," giving you 5 whole Primogems. The next achievement requires defeating it 20 times, and the last one is 50 times. Getting all the achievements will give you a total of 35 Primogems.
