The passage of the Winding Path consists of two parts: solving the puzzle with Geo monuments and fighting against the clock. Before starting the Waiting Among Peach Blossoms challenge, take a look at the list of recommended items.
To complete the study, you must at least one Geo characterbecause his skills will be useful not only for interacting with elemental pillars, but also for launching a time-limited battle.
To quickly complete the battle, we recommend taking into the squad characters whose skills act on a certain area (for example, Lisa, Keia, Xiang Ling and others), as well as heroes with coupler skills to control a crowd of small enemies.
How to solve the Geo Monuments puzzle
To activate all Geo monuments, you must use the elemental skills of the Geo character on the extinct pillars. A special rule of this puzzle is that each activated totem extinguish or light two adjacent poles. Depending on which mechanism is launched first, there is two ways to solve the puzzle.
First way
In the first version of the puzzle, you need to start activating the monuments with top left Geo Pillar. Then start the adjacent mechanism from below and re-ignite the upper left monument. Lastly, activate the bottom Geo Pillar on the right.
Second way
To solve the puzzle in the second way, start lighting the monuments with right upper mechanism. In the same way that you activated the Geo Pillars in the first option, start the lower and upper monuments on the right in order and complete the sequence with the lower left mechanism.
Once the Geo Monuments puzzle has been completed, the camera will focus on the paths that have appeared leading to the second part of the dungeon’s challenges. Climb them to the next island to find a mechanism that starts the battle for a while.
How to defeat enemies
Find an inactive Geo Monument on the island and launch it with the character’s elemental skill of the corresponding element to start the time trial. To complete it, you will need to defeat 15 enemies in 4 minutes.
The squad of opponents consists of hilichurl warriors and shooters of various elements, Geo and Anemo shamachurls, a mitachurl with an ax and the main enemy – lavachurl with a stone shell. Use the coupler to control normal mobs. To quickly destroy the shield of the lavacurl, actively use the skills of the character’s Geo.
