The monumental puzzle on Dangerous Island в Genshin impact spoiled the nerves of many players. It’s impossible to say whether they are difficult or unnecessarily buggy, but in this guide we will provide all ways to make the puzzle work and enable two different portals: to the starting island for the quest A discarded chevron and to transparent platforms in the sky to a luxurious chest.
Where is the monument puzzle and how to open it
You can start solving the puzzle with four elemental totems only after completing Mona's quest ancient azure stars. After it, the Dangerous Island will be transformed and filled with various riddles, monsters and chests.
The first version of the puzzle is a quest version, located on the regular version of the map. To switch it after the quest, use Mona's Mysterious Pond. The gallery shows the location of the monuments and the view of the location in the game.
The second puzzle is in the same place, but on mystical side of Dangerous Island.
How to solve both monument puzzles on Dangerous Island
To increase your chances of solving both puzzles, first figure out the activation order of the monuments from quest The Discarded Insignia.
Monuments and a portal to the initial island to Yakov
The riddle is solved during the quest A Discarded Chevron on the regular version of Dangerous Island. Electro Hammer Chevka asks to find a comrade and go the same way as him.
First, find the echo shell on the beach, it lies between Anemo and Pyro totems. Interact with her to find out the order of activation of the monuments: Cryo, Anemo, Pyro, Hydro. Follow the next step before enabling them.
If stars shine above the turned off totems, you need to to remove. To do this, go to the monument and activate it:
- if the statue is lit, and the star remained, activate any other totem and turn on the star one again.
- if the statue lit up and went out immediately, remaining no star - everything worked out, go to the next one with a star.
When all the monuments are off and no stars above them, activate them in order Cryo, Anemo, Pyro, Hydro. In the process, they will go out and get stars: that's how it should be, just complete the combination!
A portal will open upstairs, and all the monuments will go out. Step into the puddle to pick up a regular chest. Hit the Anemo monument or the windmill to fly up into the wormhole on the air current and get to the starting island. Continue on quest The Discarded Insignia.
If for some reason the above order did not work:
- The portal does not appear or leads to the wrong place. If a bug occurs, restart the game several times.
- Don't use archers to turn on totems.
- Try to light the combo by changing the view of the island to mystical.
Monuments and a portal to the sky to a luxurious chest
The puzzle is in the same place, but on mystical version of Dangerous Island. It is highly recommended that you first open the quest portal and then solve the puzzle to get the chest.
Before starting the activation, make sure that the monuments have no stars above oneself. To do this, as in the previous time, activate the turned off totem with a star:
- if it catches fire with her, turn on another one and come back to clean;
- if it blinks and goes out, the star will disappear. That's the way it should be.
There is an old stele near the Krio monument. Read it. She says that symbols from the cliff above to the bay below you need to light it in order to open the door.
Next, turn on all the monuments in the following order: Pyro, Anemo, Cryo and Hydro. In the process, they will go out and get stars: that's how it should be, just complete the combination!
A portal will appear. Hit the windmill and fly into it to get to the transparent platforms in the sky. Collect a luxurious chest.
If the above procedure did not work:
- Go back to conventional version of the puzzle and first solve it there by turning on Cryo, Anemo, Pyro, Hydro totems. Go to mystical version and light Pyro, Anemo, Crio, Hydro again.

It should have been said that the symbols that we find on the mystical island are the sequence of elements for the monuments. (There is a hydro symbol at the bottom at the foot)
the sequences are listed in the echo shell and on the stone tablet. what symbols do you mean?
He is right. The sequence is shown by giant symbols. If you climb from the cave with the monuments to the mysterious pond of Mona and look down towards the bay, then you can see a huge hydro symbol on the water. Further, if you go down to it and look a little higher, you can see the cryo symbol on one of the rocks. But I haven’t found anemo and pyro yet

I have a question, Right next to this puzzle is a rich chest locked, what to do with it?
this chest is listed in all riddles as symbols on the wall and a rich chest
I didn’t understand anything - as you advised, I opened the portal in the present, but nothing appears in illusions!
Why is there a sequence of Pyro-Cryo-Anemo-Hydro on the mystical version of the island? Judging by the inscription, Hydro should be the first, because he is above all ...
because it says from the rock to the coast. pyro monument closer to the rocks, hydro - to the beach
After correctly dialing in the center, a reflected normal chest appears in the water. On both islands. No one seems to have written about it.
Also, what could it be? In addition to the chest, there are 2 such red lines and the right one is moving up.

thanks for the screenshot. I don’t know yet, if we figure it out, I will answer your comment
perhaps this is an incorrect reflection of the torches in the room behind the nearest wall
It's more like a sign, if you get closer to the wall, you can see it more clearly - it points up and to the left, but it looks like it points to the pond in Mona's dreams. There, all the chests are collected and it is not clear why it might be needed.
Everything worked out! Thank you!
Happy to help 🙂
glad it worked out)
I did everything, but there was no chest on the platform (
try to re-login
I did all the manipulations with the totems, but not a single portal appeared .. moreover, I completed the world tasks .. what to do😅
What should I do if, when entering the portal, I am teleported to the initial island and not into the air?
on which version of the island did you jump into the portal? did you solve the puzzle on the regular version first?
I solved the riddle with the monuments and the portal on both versions of the island of mona, however, each time I am teleported to the island with the dodoko, and not to a transparent platform in the air
(⇀‸↼‶)
does not help, the stars are burning as they were 0/10
tell me, do they burn at the lit or turned off monuments? Have you tried interacting with the totems in the guide again?
after restarting the game everything worked ._.
I'm glad you made it)
this island of Mona will give me nightmares .... Thank you for the guide, it helped a lot!
Glad to help)
