As the latest-released region, Genshin Impact’s Sumeru is bringing exploration to the next level with countless puzzles to solve and hidden areas to discover underground.
One of the puzzles might seem similar to those you’ve encountered in previous regions, but they won’t require the same methods to be activated.
They are transparent torches. They require several different kinds of puzzles to be unlocked, but they all follow the same logic. Here’s how to unveil them and ignite them so they activate mechanisms.
How to light up the transparent blue torches in Genshin Impact‘s Sumeru
- If a small creature is floating above the torch
In this case, you’ll have to take an Electro character and hit the creature when it’s heading right above the torch. The elementary effect will affect the creature and reveal the torch at the same time. Don’t worry: it’s not a time-limited effect. Simply ignite it to activate the torch.
- If a small creature is floating near the torch but is too far away
If you see a floating creature near the torch but still too far, you can use Dendro attacks to make it move. That way, you can push the creature closer to the invisible torch and finally hit it with Electro attacks.
- You want to make the creature stop moving
In this case, you’ll have to use a Pyro attack instead. Scorching it will make it stop, and you’ll have all the time you want to make the Elementary reaction to activate an invisible torch.
How to light up the transparent blue torches in Genshin Impact‘s Sumeru’s Desert of Hadramaveth
Sumeru’s latest area from Patch 3.4, Desert of Hadramaveth, added more puzzles to solve, with new mechanisms. Although transparent blue torches have returned, the way to lighten them up has changed. Here’s how to activate them in the Desert of Hadramaveth.
To lighten up blue torches in this area, you need yellow triangles. They can be picked up using several ways: some are locked inside triangles, as shown below, and you’ll see more further in the game that are inserted in stone.
Pick them up and bring them near the torches to make them take physical form. Then, you’ll be able to fire them up using a Pyro character.
