The mysteries in Novokitezhgrad and on the Winged Peak are connected with light rays, kresnik crystals and unusual devices in Genshin ImpactUse local mechanisms to find hidden passages and open chests. Some challenges will require you to operate heavy mining equipment and destroy disaster crystals.
How to solve all the puzzles in Novokitezhgrad and Winged Peak in Genshin Impact
The mountain zone's puzzles revolve around managing energy flows, operating machinery, and clearing the area of corrupted influence. The underground area also features both simple puzzles and multi-stage challenges that require tools. Eye of Gray.
This article covers the main mechanics. After release the 7.2 update We will gradually add solutions to the riddles.
Light crystal
The item can be removed from its base and moved to another location. Its glow helps reveal hidden objects and interact with certain environmental elements:
- Reflective Chests They become visible only when illuminated by the crystal. Before that, they can be detected by a golden glow at the site of their appearance.
- Illuminated by fluorescence — an effect that reveals objects under rays of light. If an element is missing, simply illuminate the space.
- Hanging glowing crystals are attached to the ceiling. To release them, shoot the attachment.
Light rays
To activate devices, direct light from the source to the target. Correctly positioning the mechanisms opens passages and activates the associated structures.
- Light-focusing pedestal will create a directional beam if a light crystal is placed on it.
- Light-refracting mechanisms Change the light's trajectory. Rotate them until it reaches the desired device.
- Crystal walls and reflection in the cave Allows you to change the direction of the beams. Use smooth surfaces if the path is inaccessible.
Kresnikovye crystals
To solve puzzles, control energy flows or change the shape of crystalline barriers. In some cases, you'll need special equipment:
- Light transmission path Links Kresnik crystal deposits to supply energy. Activate all devices in the chain to remove the crystal walls blocking the path.
- "Cut, and cut again!" — Test with massive pillars blocking the passage. Use a multi-purpose cutter: run along the cracks and confirm the cuts to break the column.
Crystals of Disaster
Formations grow quickly and can trap a character, so it's important to monitor your surroundings and destroy dangerous areas before they become an obstacle.
Noticing growth sites of Disaster Crystals, strike them in advance to eliminate the source of danger. Cracks in the Crystals of Disaster indicate vulnerable points at which Shadow mode You can shoot with a shotgun to destroy the barrier.
Dull crystalline vegetation
To open the flower, find crystal moth and attract it with the help of a light crystal.
Pickaxe of Eternal Ice
A pickaxe made of eternal ice, designed for breaking rock. Remove it from its base to carry it with you: its normal attack breaks barriers in front of you, and holding the skill allows you to cover a larger area.
In areas affected by the Starlight Prism, an additional ability—pickaxe throwing—opens. Aim and throw it at the rocks high above.
Methods for rescuing trapped miners
In mini-quests you will need a universal cutter for mining and transportation:
- By activating the mode Loading materials, select Kresnik Crystals on the screen to add to your supply - you won't be able to take overly large ones directly.
- Then go to the mode Using the Cutter: Placement and ConstructionIn the menu, place the resulting fragments in the desired locations. If the passageway cannot be assembled, enable cutting mode, mark lines along the cracks, and confirm them to divide the pillar into smaller pieces.
Rapid-fire autocannon with a force field shield
The gun operator is protected by a force field in front, so to seize control, the enemy must move to the rear. Go around the gun, defeat the enemy, and take the vacated position.
Gun overload This occurs during prolonged firing. When the heat gauge fills, the barrel temporarily stops firing. Release the button periodically to allow the gun to cool down and become accessible again.
Blocked Gates
The mechanical gates in the center of Old Kitezhrad open when two beams of light are simultaneously applied. Point them at the center of the gates to activate the mechanism and unlock the passage.
Rewards
For successfully solving all puzzles and completing challenges, you will receive chests of varying rarity containing the following treasures:
- Primogems;
- mora;
- magical amplification ore;
- Cryo seals;
- weapons, artifacts and experience books;
- interior drawings for Serenitea Pot.
To overcome challenges more quickly, pay attention to the peculiarities of mechanisms, cracks in crystals, and light sources. Knowing the local mechanics will help you open passages and clear locations.
