Unveiling the Enigma of 'Wuthering Waves': A Celestial Guide Through the Zephyr's Realm

Explore Rinascita's Hidden Depths: A Guide to "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms"

While Rinascita in Honkai: Star Rail's Wuthering Waves offers a compelling main storyline, hidden within its northeastern reaches lies a captivating exploration quest: "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms." This quest challenges players to subdue a powerful storm, unlocking access to otherwise inaccessible areas. Though optional, completing this quest is highly recommended, especially for those seeking the Nightmare Echoes hidden within Fagaceae Peninsula's tempestuous ruins. Prepare for a challenging adventure; equip your strongest Resonators and get ready for a significant time commitment.

Quest Walkthrough

This quest is combat-intensive. Begin at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath, activating the damaged Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:

1. Energize three steles at designated locations.
2. Return and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
3. Pursue the Lumiscale Construct.
4. Defeat the Lumiscale Construct (again).
5. Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.

Energizing the Steles

Stand on the glowing circle at each altar to charge the Discipline Steles. Enemies disrupting your progress will slow charging, so eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar will cause energy depletion. Leverage the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update to your advantage. For the third set, strategically position yourself to activate the broken steles before enemy spawns.

Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct

Use your team's most potent Resonators to attack the Lumiscale Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene will initiate upon significantly reducing its health, prompting you to follow it deeper into the ruins. The environment becomes increasingly hazardous; navigate falling debris and lightning while eliminating enemies. A final confrontation with the Construct awaits.

Confronting the Dragon of Dirge

The Dragon of Dirge is a formidable foe; its attacks can easily stun or even instantly defeat your characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for stuns whenever possible. Prioritize dodging its powerful attacks and capitalize on opportunities to stagger it. Victory over the dragon completes the quest, granting access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
