While the main story quest for Rinascita in Wuthering Waves spans most of the region, some of the most fascinating locations are saved for exploration quests. One such quest, "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms," challenges players to dispel a massive storm in the northeastern part of Rinascita. Although this quest is optional, it's crucial for accessing a Nightmare Echo locked within the tempest-ridden ruins of Fagaceae Peninsula. Prepare for an extended journey by selecting your strongest Resonators.
Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough
This exploration quest is packed with combat. Begin by heading to the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath and interacting with the broken Lumiscale Construct on the floor. The objectives for this quest are:
- Charge three steles in the designated areas.
- Return to and defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Chase after the Lumiscale Construct.
- Defeat the Lumiscale Construct.
- Defeat the Dragon of Dirge.
Charging the Steles
To charge the Discipline Steles, stand on the glowing circle in the middle of the altars marked by the quest. The steles will charge slowly, but if an enemy enters the circle, the charging process will be disrupted. Quickly eliminate any intruders to maintain efficiency. Be aware that stepping away from the altar for too long will cause the energy to drain.
The 2.0 update enhanced elemental damage and their status effects, so leverage these improvements during combat. For the third set of steles, you'll need to move them into position before enemies start spawning. If you struggle to grab the broken steles, adjust your character and camera angles until a prompt appears on the steles.
Chase and Defeat the Lumiscale Construct
After charging the steles, return to the starting area using the Wingray, and attack the Lumiscale Construct with your most powerful Resonators. Once its health is sufficiently reduced, a cutscene will play, leading you to follow it deeper into the ruins. Be cautious of falling debris and lightning as you chase the construct, and eliminate any enemies you encounter. You'll eventually confront the Lumiscale Construct again and can defeat it for good.
The Dragon of Dirge
The Dragon of Dirge is a formidable foe capable of stunning or even one-shotting your characters if you're not vigilant. Watch out for its breath and falling star attacks, and aim to stagger it quickly. The best strategy is to dodge its major attacks and stun it as soon as possible.
Upon defeating the dragon, you'll complete the quest and unlock the rest of Shores of Last Breath, including all Dream Patrols and the Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the arena at the peninsula's northern tip.
