Genshin Impact Spices from the West: Northerly Search event
This returning event takes a trip to Sumeru!
For Spices from the West: Northerly Search, you need to take part in a minigame in which you add the correct ingredients in the right order to clear challenges. You only get a limited amount of attempts before failing, so this requires you to be quick as well as pay close attention to the instructions.
Once you make a seasoning, you can then add it to your own dishes, creating 'Fragrant' meals, enhancing them. You can give these dishes to characters in the Serenitea Pot instead to increase their Companionship EXP. You'll get a different response from different characters, depending on what dish you give them.
The rewards you can earn from this Spices from the West event include:
- Primogems
- Mora
- Mystic Enhancement Ore
- Character EXP Materials
- Talent Level-Up Materials
Genshin Impact Fungus Mechanicus event
The Fungus Mechanicus event continues the Fungi story that introduced Layla in Sumeru, but this time the mechanics are entirely different.
Instead of training your Fungi and taking them to battle regularly in arenas, you instead have to take charge of them by issuing attacks from a bird's eye view, like a real time strategy game. You'll still be able to use each Fungi's special abilities, but it'll just be from a different perspective.
Bongo-Head and Twirly Whirly also make a triumphant return, but we'll have to wait and see if Layla comes back for the event as well.
The rewards you can earn from the Fungus Mechanicus event include:
- Primogems
- Mora
- Mystic Enhancement Ore
- Weapon Ascension Materials
- Character EXP Materials
- Sanctifying Unction
Genshin Impact Vibro-Crystal Verification event
We head back to The Chasm in Liyue for Vibro-Crystal Verification where we'll have to combine crystals to get buffs for two party lineups to go up against combat challenges. Don't worry if you don't have two high-levelled teams, as there will be trial characters to pick from as well.
The rewards you can earn from the Vibro-Crystal Verification event include:
- Primogems
- Mora
- Mystic Enhancement Ore
- Weapon Ascension Materials
- Character EXP Materials
Hope you have fun during version 3.5!
