How to solve stone lotus puzzles

Before you set off to solve the riddles, we advise you to start the starting quest " Qiaoying of the Sacred Mountain “- its passage will allow you to understand the general mechanics of stone lotuses, since almost at the very beginning you need to solve one of these puzzles.

To solve riddles with stone water lilies you need to use a special Adept skill. This power allows you to:

• Grab (T key on PC) large water lily lanterns;
• Install (key "E" on PC) them to other places.

And as soon as you select the largest flower, the character himself becomes the source of the circular field, within the radius of which small lotuses light up. Your task: to achieve the simultaneous activation of all small stone flowers.

If you remove the field from activated flowers, you have have some time to light the rest (the lanterns will not go out immediately). You can speed up your movement through water pearls (beacons for flying in the shape of a koi fish) and statues of owls - they can install such beacons in the direction you need.

Who to take with the squad

For comfortable puzzle solving We advise you to pay attention to the list of heroes who will, to one degree or another, simplify the clearing of scenes with lotuses on the water:

As a result, you will be greatly helped by heroes who accelerate movement, walk on water and place heavy objects on pressure plates. Now let's look at each area with stone water lily puzzles separately.

Stone lotuses on the water 1

• Location: coast west of Xuanlian Mountain;
• Reward: rich chest.

Let's start from the southwest coast near Mount Xuanlian. Here you will find a stone platform with a large lantern floating on the water. Pick up the lotus with the Adept skill and climb onto the slab (the nearest flowers will light up in its area).

Standing on the platform, aim the resulting lotus between a pair of small flowers nearby. The pedestal will begin to move towards the shore, and With You it all the small lotuses.

As soon as the plate stops, turn the camera towards the large flower remaining in the distance and take it back. All that remains is to go ashore, simultaneously lighting the last water lily.

Stone lotuses on the water 2

• Location: pond under Xuanlian Mountain;
• Reward: rich chest.

Next, let's go to the foot of Xuanlian Mountain: in the place we marked there is another puzzle with water lilies, next to which there is a statue of an owl. Before we solve it, let's prepare a little:

• Pick up the stone flower in the middle of the pond;

• Enter the statue and place two beacons in places with inactive water lilies to the left and right of the owl.

From there you can use any direction, but we started by moving to the lotuses to the left of the statue. As soon as two flowers at the place of movement light up, we quickly return back.

We fly to the right from the owl and light the lanterns, after which we can go back or repeat the entire movement if the flowers somewhere have already gone out. The reward for your efforts will also be a rich chest.

Stone lotuses on the water 3

• Location: strait northeast of Xuanlian Mountain;
• Reward: rich chest.

Another small puzzle awaits on the opposite edge of the foot of Xuanlian (the nearest teleport is marked on the map above).

Approach the bridge and take the large water lily. Next, place it closer to the bridge so that all the inactive flowers on this side of the pond light up.

Then we go to the bridge and take the lantern back: it needs to be placed within a radius of two small lotuses in the water to the left of the chest. If you make it before the first group of water lilies goes out, the chest will be successfully unlocked.

Stone lotuses on the water 4

• Location: strait southwest of the Tea Tree slope;
• Reward: rich chest.

Let’s move on: the strait to the west of the slope of the Tea Tree, in the area of ​​which the start of the world quest “ The Roaming Abode "

Select the source of the activating field and place it between the nearest three flowers.

Quite far from the activated water lilies (by the water to the north) there are two more stone lilies: to light them, move away from the first three to the chest and grab the water lily with the field from afar.

Run to the remaining flowers - as soon as they fall within the radius of the field, your reward will be unlocked.

Stone lotuses on the water 5

• Location: gorge with a waterfall to the east of the mountain on the Chizhang wall;
• Reward: precious chest.

The next puzzle area is west of the last area (before the entrance to the cave under the mountain above wall of Chizhang, inside of which there is a small deposit jades for pumping Xianyun ).

The solution to this puzzle is similar to the one solved in 2nd : There is also an owl figurine here that you can use install beacons for movement in any place convenient for you. We select the largest water lily and enter the owl control mode. Place the floating pearls in two directions: left and right (you can use the screenshots above as a guide).

Then move between the pearls as quickly as possible: you need to have time to light all the lanterns. Movement scheme : owl → beacon 1 → owl → beacon 2. if you don’t have time to aim with the owl, try flying without its help (set the direction, while in flight, turn the camera towards the second pearl and be attracted to it).

Stone lotuses on the water 6

• Location: Bay south of Jade Vent;
• Reward: rich chest.

The sixth place is located in the Jade Vent area, but you can get there a little faster from the teleport at the top of the nearest mountain. You don't have to post anything here, just pick up the largest flower and move quickly with him between the two sides of the stream.

Having received the energy circle from the lotus, we fly up to the beacon, and from it - in any direction. When the first group of flowers bursts into flames, repeat the action in the opposite direction.

Stone lotuses on the water 7

• Location: south coast at the foot of Laixin Mountain;
• Reward: rich chest.

Before exploring, you must complete the quest " An Ancient Sacrifice of Sacred Brocade "

The seventh riddle awaits us off the coast in the south of the island under the Chivan Terrace.

Pick up a stone water lily for energy the field was around the character, and then run up to the rest of the flowers in this order: first the one that stands alone, then to the pair opposite, and then to the two above the deep water in the nook.

If you do not have time to light the last two, then after activating the three previous lanterns, install a lotus using the Adept skill in the radius of the remaining ones.

Stone lotuses on the water 8

• Location: foot of the waterfall on the Upper Chenyu Gorge;
• Reward: regular and precious chests.

Perhaps the largest puzzle with water lilies is located in the lowland under one of the waterfalls of the Upper Chenyu Gorge. Its solution has several stages and two rewards: an ordinary and a precious casket.

To start, deal with a bunch of cryo slimes who were interested in the owl figurine. After the battle, pick up the figurine and place it on shimmering emerald pedestal in front of the river Adept skill. Once in its place, the owl will give a chest, and a water lily with a field will swim up to us from the waterfall - you can immediately pick it up.

On the opposite bank there is a beacon for the flight, and from it we can carry out a movement pattern (you can start in any direction, the main thing is that the field from the stone lotus is with you): beacon → place 1 → back to the beacon → place 2.

Still, we advise you to start from the waterfall on the left - this way you will most likely land on the ground (on the right you can get into the water, but by the time you get out, the lit lanterns will have time to go out).

Stone lotuses on the water 9

• Location: north bank of the river in front of the Tea Tree slope.
• Reward: rich chest.

To begin solving the next puzzle, travel to the Geo Archon statue in the east of Chenyu and run west to the location we marked (map above).

Here we need a character who can place heavy structures on pressure podiums (inactive flashlights will float closer). Press the slab and take the stone lantern with the field that appears above the water.

Then you can follow the following solution scheme:

• Go to the stone flowers on the right and place a lantern between them;
• Run to the opposite bank and from there get your water lily back;
• Place it between three other lotuses so that they all light up (indicated in the screenshot above);
• If two flowers have already gone out, return to them and repeat the trick with returning the lantern;

Everything will go smoothly if you act quickly and remember that structures holding the slab may disappear.

Stone lotuses on the water 10

• Location: Western trail from Qiaoying settlement;
• Reward: rich chest.

The penultimate puzzle is required to be solved during the assignment " Qiaoying of the Sacred Mountain " Just pick up a large stone lotus in a pond and place it closer to the center — the radius of the field will capture all inactive flashlights and unlock the restriction from the chest.

Stone lotuses on the water 11

• Location: Waterfall southeast of Yilong Port;
• Reward: rich chest.

Last destination: the middle part of the waterfall in front of Yilong Port. Tap on the travel point above the water stream and jump to the marked area.

Pick up the stone flower with the Adept skill and place it between the three lanterns in front of the locked chest. Next, look at the stone platform above the waterfall and use the same skill (the structure will begin to move).

Climb up the slab that has begun to move up to the last flower, and once near it, return the stone water lily with a round aura - and the last puzzle will be instantly solved.

These are all the puzzles with the lotus water scenes in Chenyu Valley in Genshin Impace. We hope that our guide will help you find and solve them.
