Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough
This exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin by interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath. The quest objectives are:
- Energize three steles at designated locations.
- Return to and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Pursue and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Defeat the Lumiscale Construct (final encounter).
- Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.
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 will cause energy depletion. Leverage the enhanced elemental damage and status effects introduced in the 2.0 update to your advantage. For the third stele set, strategically position yourself to activate them before enemy spawns.
Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct
Utilize your strongest Resonators to defeat the Lumiscale Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene will trigger after significantly reducing its health, prompting you to follow it deeper into the ruins. The environment becomes increasingly hazardous during the chase; navigate falling debris and lightning while eliminating enemies. The final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct occurs at the end of the chase.
Confronting the Dragon of Dirge
The Dragon of Dirge is a formidable foe capable of one-shotting characters if unprepared. Evade its breath attacks and falling stars, aiming for stuns as opportunities arise. Prioritize stunning the dragon after its major attacks. Victory over the dragon completes the quest, granting access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis.
