Passage of the quest "The Lost Miner"

How to start a task

The first step is to complete the questline. "The Chasm Delvers" to open the main part of the underground mines map. Next, you will need to get to the location Underground Waterway. You can get there from the southern teleport of the Main Mining Zone. The entire route is shown on the map below.

After moving to the teleporter, turn around and go through the hole ahead. Once inside, run forward a little and then turn right. Go past the fatui camp, reach the cliff and jump down. As a result, you will find yourself in Groundwater.

After going down, get to the rocks on the opposite side. The exact location is shown on the map with the route. There you will find a hollow tree. Enter it and go forward a little. There will be a table with working tools. Examine them.

As a result, a miner will appear. Talk to him. You will learn that his name is Uncle He. After the conversation, a new task starts. You will also unlock the "Not for Long-Term Consumption" trophy.

Gather "Mushroom Meat" and Defeat the Molds

Head to the marked area and start collecting star mushrooms (they will be highlighted so you can easily find them). As soon as you pick all the mushrooms, molds will attack you.

These are quite living opponents who can shoot bubbles. The battle will take place near a body of water, so we advise you to use Cryo abilities to freeze enemies. After dealing with the monsters, chat with the former miner again.

Take Uncle He to Jin Wu's camp

Now you will need to return to the camp of the geo-reconnaissance detachment. To do this, just teleport to the right place. Then approach the girl and talk to her. Watch a long video.

When the conversation ends, the mission will come to an end. As a reward, you will receive 250 adventure points, 30,000 pestilence, 3 hero experience and 30 source stones.
