If you want to get the Luxurious Chest in the Faded Castle area, you’ll have to go through a small play and catch some notes.
Whenever Genshin Impact gets a new update, one of the main attractions is usually a new area with its own mechanics and specialties. These areas provide you with plenty of content in the form of exploration and quests, which was the same for the Nostoi Region and Sea of Bygone Eras added during the Version 4.8 update.
This area features plenty of brand-new game mechanics revolving around musical notes, and it's also filled with Luxurious Chests to the brim. One of these chests can be found in the Faded Castle area, and you'll have to pay attention if you want to get it.
How To Beat The Play For Luxurious Chest
If you've been following the main world quest in the Nostoi Region, you'll find this chest as you reach the main point where you can enter the Sea of Bygone Eras. However, you won't be able to unlock it through the quest. To unlock this quest, you'd want to start by interacting with the giant harp in front of it.
This will start a play on the screen in front where you'll see a ship slowly moving from the left to the right. As this happens, you'll constantly see notes appearing out of the screen and dropping on the ground. The main idea is to capture as many of these notes as possible since this will give shields to the ship.
There will be random lightning strikes happening throughout the play , and you have to protect the ship with these shields.
These notes get dropped in waves, and they consistently get harder to acquire as the play progresses. However, you get a special ability in this area that can be used to pause the surrounding items. When you first use this ability by pressing the button on the bottom of your screen, it'll replace your Elemental Skill button.
After this, pressing the Skill button will let out an AoE wave that you can use on the notes to pause them on the spot and claim them easily. Here are a few tips to capture notes in each wave:
- The first set of waves is quite easy. The notes drop from various locations, but they quickly reach the ground and then go past the floor. You have to collect eight of these for the next wave.
- The second wave will require you to collect ten notes, but they'll appear in groups of three and they'll be angled diagonally across the field. For this one, you'd want to stay at the back of the field and follow their trajectory. Make sure you don't pause them too high up in the air.
- The third and fourth waves are quite easy to follow, and you even get a special aura in the fourth one. If the note comes into this aura, it automatically gets claimed, sort of like a magnet.
After getting past all four waves, the play will end and you'll get one Luxurious Chest and two Precious Chests as a reward.
