Among the temporary activities in update 4.8 for Genshin Impact has a series of Constellation Capital challenges. They represent battles with various monsters, and in the battle you can use special power-ups for your characters. In this guide, we will show you how to access the Constellation Capital arenas and get the maximum number of points.
How to Unlock the Constellation Capital Challenge Series
Your main task is to reach the new Simulanka region. To do this, three conditions must be met:
- Reach adventure rank 18;
- Complete the Archon mission “Prologue: Act III. Song of Dragon Freedom”;
- Complete the quest ‘The story begins in a forest where no rain falls’.
Please note that all temporary activities of Update 4.8 will be available from July 19 to August 24, 2024.
Once you are in Simulanka, you will need to complete the Owl Musician quest. To do this, visit the Constellation Capital and talk to the guard Alof. He will explain the rules of fighting in the arena and invite you to participate. As a bonus, you will receive 4 adventure experience points and 10,000 mora.
Basic Rules for Testing the Constellation Capital
The main feature of this event is courage points. You get them for killing monsters. If you have 6 or more courage points, special power-ups will be unlocked that make battles much easier. They will remain active as long as the Time of Courage is active. This will allow you to get a high rating and an excellent reward at the end of the battle.
Before the start of the battles it is proposed to form two squadrons of fighters. It is advisable that the characters are not repeated in them. For each unique hero you get 1 courage point, which allows you to start the battle with an additional bonus. Reinforcement is individual for each specific arena.
First Test. Sharpened vanguard
Talk to the hunter and enter the dungeon. You can first study the list of enemies and power-ups that open after you receive courage points. Here you can get a basic skill boost of 20-50%. If the character is not on the battlefield, this bonus is increased by another 20-50%.
Because of this feature, when selecting fighters, it is important to include those heroes that attack enemies with an elemental skill even when they are not in the arena. These include Fischl, Furina, Chiori, and Yae Miko.
In the first phase of the challenge, you will have to face large groups of weak opponents. This is where your area-smashing skills will come in handy. This should be taken into account when selecting teams. You can rely on a combination of Hydro + Dendro or Electro + Hydro reactions.
In the second phase, monsters with Geo-shields will come against you. The most effective against them are Geo-hunters with two-handed swords – Itto, Navia and Noelle. You can increase the damage with the help of Zhong Li, Goro, Albedo and Tiori.
As a reward, you will receive Source Stones, materials for upgrading your characters, and Astro Coins. The last resource is a special event currency that will expire after August 24th. However, during Update 4.8, you can get valuable rewards for her, including the Crown of Contempt and Kirara as a character.
We will update the guide as new challenges become available.
