Wuthering Waves: Celestial Exploration Unveiled

Conquer the Tempest: A Complete Guide to "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" in Honkai: Star Rail's Wuthering Waves

While the main storyline in Rinascita, Wuthering Waves, covers most of the region, several intriguing locations are hidden within exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to dispel a massive storm in Rinascita's northeastern corner.

Though optional, this quest is highly recommended, especially considering a Nightmare Echo is trapped within Fagaceae Peninsula's stormy ruins. Prepare your strongest Resonators; this is a significant undertaking.

Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough

This exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the ruined base south of Shores of Last Breath, interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:

1. Energize three steles at designated locations.
2. Return to and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
3. Pursue the Lumiscale Construct.
4. Defeat the Lumiscale Construct (again).
5. 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 slow progress, so eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar will cause energy depletion.

Utilize the 2.0 update's enhanced elemental damage and status effects to your advantage.

For the third stele set, position them before enemy spawns. If struggling to interact, adjust character and camera angles until a prompt appears.

Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct

Use your strongest Resonators to attack the Lumiscale Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene will initiate after significant damage, prompting pursuit deeper into the ruins.

The environment becomes more hazardous during the chase; beware falling debris and lightning, eliminating all enemies. A final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct awaits.

Confronting the Dragon of Dirge

The Dragon of Dirge is incredibly dangerous, capable of stunlocking or one-shotting characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for stuns. Prioritize stunning it after its major attacks.

Defeating the dragon completes the quest, unlocking access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
