Dagger in the water in Genshin Impact: how to hit puffy fruits with Fontmer's Blade

In Genshin Impact "Dagger in the Water" is a diary from Fontaine, the essence of which is to pass a time-limited Achievement: Challenger using the skills of xenochromic creatures. You have to quickly and accurately destroy puffyfruits that appear from touching unusual corals in various underwater areas of the Hydro Kingdom. From this walkthrough, you can learn how to complete this mission and hit all the targets with the Fontmer Blade.

How to get the quest "Dagger in the Water"

This daily will appear in your daily quest list under the following conditions:

Completed "New Horizons of Adventure" quest.
The Fontaine region is marked in your Traveler's Handbook.

For more information on how to access the dailies in the land of the Hydro Archon, see separate guide.

In the end, remember that you cannot 100% influence the appearance of this or that daily, so we wish you to be patient and a drop of luck.

Passage of the quest "Dagger in the water"

The quest does not have any continuations or parts, however, there can be as many as three places for its appearance:

North of the Salos Sea Plateau.
Southeast Chemin de Lespora (near the "aquarium" vineyard ).
East of the Salos Sea Plateau (near red barrier puzzles ).

In the description of the quest, we are offered to use Blade of Fontmer — the skill that you get after touching (from a normal attack) with xenochromic oscar . These creatures will always be somewhere near the place where the Achievement: Challenger began. The resulting ability (E-shka) releases Hydro Blades, with which you can easily destroy puffyfruits.

Let's analyze the implementation on the example of the first of the three mission options[север Салосского морского плато] . If you also get it, then get to the underwater teleporter on the east side of the flooded city wall and swim straight to the quest marker.

Swim to the coral and select the action " Research ”: plumpfruits will immediately fly out of it, and a timer will start for you (exactly 1 minute to successfully complete the test).

Take Fontmer's Blade in advance so as not to waste the allotted time.

You can wait until all the targets fall into place, or immediately aim at them with the help of an additional skill. If you are close enough to the puffy fruit, then just press your normal attack - it will automatically hit targets.

For E-shki, the exact aim is also not very important, the main thing is to release the Hydro blade towards the orange balls - a wide radius of destruction will hit them anyway. Once all the puffyfruits have been blown up, the mission will be completed.

Remember : If the test fails, you can safely retake it.
