I have a problem. The second wool remained behind the closed door. I don't know how to open the door with just one gear.
In an article dedicated to Motorized valve to control connections in all directions, told how to do it with one gear
I don’t know what to do anymore... all the chests have been collected, the tasks have been completed, but I’m missing the last 30 premium coupons. I wrote to support, they said to look more carefully, but I looked around everything 10 times and didn’t find anything. The compass is not pointing anywhere, please help!!
Did you complete the mini-quests in the fortress? There are quite a few of them, and they can also give you coupons. Check the list here and check again: https://wotpack.ru/sceny-zhizni-v-kreposti-meropid-v-genshin-impact-kak-nachat-i-projti/#i-2
yes, I have everything done. As I understand it, there shouldn’t be any coupons left, but I have 220 of them, just 30 are missing. I'm really tired and don't know what to do
I can’t collect 13-14 chests because the passage there is stupidly blocked. I opened one door, which opens in the center, and only God will open the second.
answered you in an article about the mechanism
I solved riddles 12, 13 and 14 myself, I didn’t understand from the article and started digging into the interactive map, the essence is that you need to rotate the small gear so that you can pick it up, turn the big arrow to the point you need, stop, put a small gear where you want to put it, then start it, let the arrows spin a little and you will open a passage, only 1 gear is enough there, but it’s better to pick up the second gear from one of the rooms, this will be needed for riddle 14 especially
In the place where chests 6-7 are taken, before the first battle, if you climb onto the scaffolding closer to the ceiling, the treasure compass will be active and will point to the very ceiling. And after defeating your opponents, the compass no longer shows anything.
Where did you get the energy storage in 14? Why did they write about him if they didn’t show where they got him?
Hello! You can read more about solving these riddles in this article:
https://wotpack.ru/privodnoj-klapan-dlja-upravlenija-soedinenijami-vo-vseh-napravlenijah-v-genshin-impact-kak-rabotaet/
I didn't understand how to open the 13th amazing chest. I turn the arrow, and one passage opens for me, but the second does not.
The passage should only open one at a time. Read our article about Actuated valve (link is clickable), we explained in detail why we show two arrows in the screenshots.
This is all cool, of course, but why can’t I take the 14th regular chest? I take the necessary energy storage device, but when I go to the central hall it disappears (
Hmm 🤔 This is the first time I've heard about such a problem. If you are sure that you are doing everything correctly, try informing technical support about the problem. Most likely this is a bug, because... The storage device must be kept within the floor.
I’ll try to write, thank you) By the way, what’s strange is that I’m missing not only this chest for achievements🤔 Now I have 1470 coupons. I’ll get 30 and be able to take the shirt, but I still need to buy 2 cards and 4 drinks, and I’ve taken all the chests except one and completed all the tasks
I’ll check the tasks again, if I did pass everything, then I don’t understand why my world is broken. It seems Genshin doesn't want me to take this achievement😶
I had the same problem. The drive suddenly disappears when you leave the room. Tell me, were you able to solve this problem?
Thanks for the guide, I myself would like a chest for the battle with Rusimov knows how long he would have searched
