How to complete the Mystery of the Arcadian Ruins mission | Genshin Impact
One of the first missions in Genshin Impact is the Mystery of the Arcadian Ruins that comes early in the game.
If you’ve been struggling to complete the Mystery of the Arcadian Ruins (Secret Pirate Treasure quest) mission and need a guide to advance through it, then you’ve come to the right place.
Here is how to play Mystery of the Arcadian Ruins (Secret Pirate Treasure quest) in Genshin Impact.
There are many quests that you and your companion, Paimon, need to complete in Genshin Impact. Some involve helping Kaeya — a member of the Knights of Favonius — to find secret pirate treasure.
After you talk to Kaeya, go to the Adventurers’ Guild to seek information about the location of the Arcadian Ruins. Navigate to the Adventurer’s Guild, and you will meet an NPC who won’t be very helpful. So you have to return to Kaeya.
Kaeya will tell you to go and talk to an informant of his. Navigate to the Weeping Woods to meet the informant. The informant will arrive with assailants hot on their heels.
The city on the lake is Mondstadt, and across the water are three windmills with six sails each, representing the riddle’s “three giants with six arms.”
The windmill standing apart from the rest is the one you want to go to.
Open the chest, and you will encounter another riddle and a map with a location marked on it.
The riddle reads:
“She doesn’t love him at all. The passion rushing through the clear spring is just a front. When she’s cold and alone, her true heart is revealed.”
Go back to Kaeya for clues about the riddle. Kaeya will interpret the riddle for you and Paimon.
A chest will then appear. Inside the chest is a map on which a location near Falcon Coast is marked. You will also encounter another riddle. You can go back to Kaeya for clues about the riddle or navigate to the location marked on the map.
Navigating to the location will bring you to the Arcadian Ruins.
You have to go down the dungeons with Kaeya (Cryo powers) and Lisa (Electro).
In the dungeons, use Kaeya and Lisa’s powers to make you way through and finally take out the boss and his goons using Amber.
You complete the mission when you have taken out the boss.
