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, unfolds across the region, several compelling locations are reserved for exploration quests. "Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms" is one such quest, challenging players to dispel a massive storm in Rinascita's northeastern reaches.
This optional quest is highly recommended, especially considering a Nightmare Echo is trapped within Fagaceae Peninsula's storm-ravaged ruins. Prepare your strongest Resonators; this is a substantial undertaking.
Where Wind Returns to Celestial Realms Walkthrough
This exploration quest is combat-heavy. Begin at the base of the ruins south of Shores of Last Breath, interacting with the damaged Lumiscale Construct. The quest objectives are:
Energizing the Steles
Standing on the central glowing circle of each altar marked by the quest will gradually charge the Discipline Steles. Enemies disrupting the circle impede progress; eliminate them swiftly. Moving too far from the altar causes energy depletion.
Leverage the 2.0 update's elemental damage and status effect enhancements for a tactical advantage in combat.
For the third set of steles, quickly position them before enemy spawns. If interaction is difficult, adjust character and camera angles until a prompt appears.
Chasing and Defeating the Lumiscale Construct
Utilize your team's most potent Resonators to attack the Lumiscale Construct upon returning to the starting area. A cutscene initiates after significantly reducing its health, prompting pursuit deeper into the ruins.
The environment becomes increasingly hazardous during the chase, with falling debris and lightning. Eliminate all enemies. A final confrontation with the Lumiscale Construct awaits, providing the opportunity for its permanent defeat.
The Dragon of Dirge
This formidable enemy can easily stunlock or one-shot characters. Evade its breath and falling star attacks, aiming for quick stuns. The optimal strategy is to wait for large attacks to end and then immediately stun the dragon.
Victory over the dragon completes the quest, unlocking access to Shores of Last Breath, including Dream Patrols and Nightmare Tempest Mephis in the northern arena.
