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, activating the broken Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:
- Energize three steles at designated locations.
- Return 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. Utilize 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
Use your strongest Resonators to defeat the Lumiscale Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene will trigger, initiating the chase deeper into the ruins. The environment becomes increasingly hazardous; navigate falling debris and lightning while eliminating enemies. A final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct awaits.
Confronting the Dragon of Dirge
The Dragon of Dirge is a formidable opponent capable of one-shotting characters. Evade its breath attacks and falling stars, aiming for stuns. Prioritize stunning it after its powerful attacks. Victory unlocks access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis.
