The latest Genshin Impact update, Version 5.8, invites Travelers to delve into the vibrant new region of the Oasis of Respite. Amidst its lush landscapes and intriguing lore, a peculiar world quest, “Paititi`s Dreams,” emerges, tasking players with a unique horticultural investigation. Join us as we navigate this intriguing quest, from deciphering dancing plants to unearthing hidden treasures, all while aiding a spirited winemaker named Atzili.
Setting the Stage: Initiating Your Botanical Adventure
Before you can lend your expertise to the local flora, ensure you`ve laid the groundwork. To unlock “Paititi`s Dreams,” you`ll first need to complete two preceding world quests:
- “The Same Moonlight”
- “A Dance of Colorful Butterflies”
Once these narrative threads are neatly tied, make your way to the northwestern shores of Tete Island within the Oasis of Respite. Look for a figure bearing the familiar quest marker – a curious young woman named Atzili. Your journey into botanical mystery officially begins when you interact with a distinct purple hop flower nearby.
Atzili`s Dilemma: The Case of the Compromised Crops
Atzili, a local winemaker with an evident passion for her craft, seeks your aid in creating a very special nectar. The challenge? Her hop fields are plagued by mysterious ailments, and only a keen eye can distinguish the healthy from the ill. You`ll be tasked with wielding a peculiar device, the “Dream Extractor,” to process the purified essence. This isn`t just about farming; it`s about becoming a horticultural detective.
Identifying the Troublemakers: A Lesson in Botanical Behavior
Distinguishing the sick plants from their healthy counterparts is surprisingly straightforward, if a tad theatrical. Approach a healthy hop flower, and it will politely retract, closing its petals. The diseased ones, however, have a flair for the dramatic – they`ll begin to “dance” and twitch erratically. It`s almost as if they`re auditioning for a spot in a Teyvatian opera, but their performance indicates a dire need for intervention.
Field One: The Initial Contamination
Your first botanical battlefield lies directly ahead. Focus your attention on the third, furthest row of hop flowers. One particular plant there will refuse to close its petals upon your approach, revealing its unwell nature.
- Interaction: Approach and interact with the non-closing flower.
- Combat Encounter: Prepare for a skirmish! A formidable Dendro Fungi will emerge, determined to protect its infected botanical charge.
- Extraction: After subduing the fungi, ascend the nearby wooden platform. You`ll find the “Dream Extractor” – a blue bottle contraption – ready for activation.
Field Two: The Spreading Sickness
To the left of the first field, you`ll find the second patch, presenting a more widespread problem. Here, you`ll need to identify and cleanse three afflicted hop flowers: one in the first row and two in the final row.
- Interaction & Confrontation: After interacting with the diseased plants, you`ll encounter a few local residents – a cat, a dog, and a boar. You can attempt to engage them in conversation (perhaps a misunderstanding about your plant-purging activities?) or simply prepare for immediate combat.
- Extraction: Once the situation is resolved, return to Atzili`s vicinity and activate the “Dream Extractor” once more.
Field Three: The Final Frontier of Flora
As you approach the third and final field, be prepared for an immediate ambush by a group of smaller Dendro Fungi. Dispense with them efficiently.
- Interaction: Identify the problematic plant – it`s the furthest hop flower in the last row that conspicuously refuses to close.
- Combat & Cleansing: This interaction will trigger another round of combat, pitting you against more Fungi and a few Hilichurls. Once victory is yours, “remove” the corrupted flower.
- Extraction: Finally, activate the blue “Dream Extractor” bottle one last time to complete the purification process.
The “Sweet Dream” and a Tangible Treasure
With all three fields cleansed and the essences extracted, deliver your meticulously crafted elixir to Atzili. In gratitude, she`ll offer you a portion of the nectar. But the adventure doesn`t quite end there.
Advance time to the next day, and rejoin Atzili at the hop fields. She`ll invite you to sample a new concoction: “Sweet Dream.” Indulging in this beverage plunges the Traveler into a vivid, albeit bizarre, illusion – a dream sequence where you find yourself dancing with Hilichurls. It`s a surreal experience, a testament to the potency of Atzili`s brew, or perhaps a hint at the deeper magic of the Oasis of Respite.
Upon emerging from this delightful delirium, the “Paititi`s Dreams” quest officially concludes. You`ll not only earn the standard quest rewards but also receive a generous Rich Chest and the unique achievement “Paititi of Your Dreams.”
The Real Gem: Locating the Precious Chest
That Hilichurl dance party wasn`t just for show! Amidst the illusion, the Traveler stumbles upon a genuine treasure. The precious chest, unlike the dancing monsters, is very real and waiting to be claimed. Head north from the hop fields on Tete Island, toward the very edge of the shore. Look for a small green tree nestled near a pile of stones at the base of a cliff. Interact with the “Dig” prompt there to unearth your well-deserved reward.
Your Efforts Rewarded: Quest Payout
Completing “Paititi`s Dreams” brings a satisfying array of rewards, underscoring the value of your botanical detective work and dream-weaving assistance:
- ✨ Primogems: Essential for your gacha pulls!
