Conquer the Tempest: A Complete Guide to "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" in Honkai: Star Rail's Wuthering Waves
While the main storyline in Honkai: Star Rail's Rinascita region within Wuthering Waves unfolds across most of the area, several compelling locations are reserved for exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to subdue a powerful storm in Rinascita's northeastern reaches.
Although optional, completing this quest is highly recommended, especially considering a Nightmare Echo is trapped within the storm-ravaged ruins of Fagaceae Peninsula. Prepare for an extended adventure; equip your strongest Resonators and get ready for a challenging journey.
Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough
This exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath, interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct on the ground. The quest objectives are:
Energizing the Steles
The Discipline Steles on the marked altars charge while standing on the central glowing circle. Enemies interrupting this process will hinder progress; eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar causes energy depletion.
Utilize the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update to your advantage during combat.
For the third stele set, position them correctly before enemy spawns. If interaction is difficult, adjust character and camera angles until a prompt appears.
Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct
Return to the starting point using the Wingray and unleash your team's most powerful Resonators on the Lumiscale Construct. A cutscene triggers upon significantly reducing its health, prompting pursuit deeper into the ruins.
The environment intensifies as you chase the Construct. Beware of falling debris and lightning, eliminating all enemies encountered. A final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct awaits, offering a chance for its permanent defeat.
The Dragon of Dirge
This formidable foe can easily stunlock or even one-shot characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for quick stuns. The optimal strategy is to wait for its major attacks to conclude before attempting a swift stun.
Victory over the dragon completes the quest, unlocking access to the remaining Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
