Fischl Genshin Impact

On November 16, the event “Distant Stars” started in Genshin Impact. We will reveal to you what rewards there are and how to unlock the character Fischl. Meanwhile, all sections of the event are available.

What is it about? On November 16, the event “Distant Stars” started in Genshin Impact. Just on November 11, the major update 1.1 of the game was officially launched.

In the event, strange meteors fall upon the fantasy world Teyvat, and anyone who touches the stones is afflicted by a sleeping sickness. Now it is up to you as a player.

Update 11.23.2020. The entire event is now available. We have added hints for “Delicious Farmer’s Vegetables in Qingce Style“.

How long does the event last?

The event started on November 16, 2020, and runs until November 30, 2020. A special event merchant is even available until December 6, 2020.

What are the requirements?

You need to reach Adventure Rank Level 20 to unlock the first event quest. Here you will find tips on how to quickly level up the Adventure Rank in Genshin Impact.

What does the event offer?

There are several tasks and events that you need to complete during the event. For the completed tasks, you will receive an event currency that you can spend on rewards.

What rewards are there?

Throughout the event, you will collect various shards that you can exchange for rewards. The highlight of the event is the character Fischl, who you can unlock for free at the end of the event quests. We will tell you how to unlock her in our article.

What do I need for the challenges?

With “Salvaging the Meteorite Debris” and “Falling Star” you can play two special challenges. For both, you need 20 or 40 original resin to claim your rewards.

Is it worth it, even if I already have Fischl?

Yes, definitely! Because instead of the character, you will receive Fischl’s “Stella Fortuna”. With this you can enhance the constellation. This provides you with strong bonuses for the character. The Crown of Wisdom is also worth it.

Genshin Impact: How to unlock Fischl

Who is Fischl? Fischl is a bow user with a rarity of four stars. The chance to pull a 4-star character in a wish is 5.1%, which is very low.

Fischl is one of the best characters in Genshin Impact. She is a strong damage dealer and a good support. In battle, she can summon a raven that deals Electro damage just like Fischl. The raven also remains summoned for several seconds, even when you switch to another character.

This is what you need to do: To obtain Fischl, you must complete all the tasks of the “Princess Pact” quest line by the end of the event.

  • You must complete the quest “Star of Destiny.” This has been available since November 23, 2020.
  • You must complete the challenge “Salvaging Meteor Debris” 14 times.
  • Thirdly, you must complete the challenge “Falling Star” 7 times.
Genshin Impact Event series

This is what you need to keep in mind: The three phases are not available immediately but will be unlocked over several days. The following three phases are available:

  • The first part of the event “Unknown Star” has already started.
  • The second part “Star of Deceptive Dreams” has been available since November 18, 2020.
  • With “Star of Destiny,” the final part of the event series started on November 23, 2020. Upon completion, you will obtain the character Fischl.

Genshin Impact: How to Start the “Distant Stars” Event

How to start the first quest: You can already complete the quest “Star of Destiny.” For this, you must fulfill a multi-part quest. You receive the quest through the event menu and then have to talk to Katheryne from the Adventurers’ Guild in Mondstadt.

Next, you need to visit three different regions of the game world and collect 7 meteorite shards in each. However, these are not always easy to find, and you need to gather them in these three areas.

In each area, there are more than 7 shards; you do not have to collect them all to complete the quest. Every collected shard also counts as event currency “Essence of the Waning Stars.”

This is how the meteorite shards are displayed

You can repeat the gathering the following day. However, it will be three different areas than the previous day. In these areas, you will find the shards:

Day 1:

  • Starfall Valley (east of Mondstadt)
  • Bishui Plain (north of Liyue)
  • Guyun Towers in the Sea of Clouds (east of Liyue)

Day 2:

  • Whistling Slope (southeast of Mondstadt)
  • Qiongji Estuary (northeast of Liyue)
  • Minlin (northwest of Liyue)
The meteorite shards can be in unusual places

How the “Meteorite Debris Recovery” Challenge Works

When does the challenge begin? According to the official website, the “Meteorite Debris Recovery” challenge started on November 18, 2020.

To unlock the challenge, you must first complete the quest “Endless Crisis.” During this quest, you will also learn how the challenge works. Afterwards, the locations of the meteorites will appear on your map and you can select the challenges individually.

Meteorite Locations
You can start the “Meteorite Debris Recovery” challenge at such locations.

How does the event work? It is a challenge where you must defeat a lot of enemies within a certain time. Beforehand, you can choose one of three different difficulty levels, which in turn offers you different rewards.

Genshin Meteorite Debris Challenge
You can play the challenge in three stages.

Things to keep in mind: While you are destroying the enemies, you must stay in the blue influence area of the meteorite debris. If you leave the area, it turns red, and your progress decreases quickly!

Each meteorite also carries an element that strengthens the enemies. If you use the correct counter-element, it can be to your advantage. How elements and combos work in Genshin Impact will be explained elsewhere.

Genshin Impact Elemental Reaction
Each meteorite debris has a specific element that you can counter.

These rewards are available: If you manage to defeat all enemies within the limit, you can collect your rewards. Similar to dungeons or elite bosses, you need 20 points of “original resin” to recover the debris. As a reward, you will receive

  • the event currency “Fading Stars Power” and
  • friendship EXP for your characters.

How the “Falling Star” Challenge Works

When does the challenge start? On November 23, 2020, the third installment of the event and the second challenge “Falling Star” was activated.

Once you have completed the quest “Secret of the Sky, Revealed in Water,” you can unlock the “Falling Star” challenge to collect the event currency “Essence of the Fading Stars” here.

Tip: During the quest, you need to talk to a soldier. However, you can only do this if you have completed the quest “Siege of Quinec” beforehand. Otherwise, the soldier will not appear in Quinec, as they will be tied up with another quest.

How does the event work? The event works similarly to the previous co-op event in Genshin Impact. You can play this challenge both solo and in multiplayer mode.

You need to defeat monsters within a given time, which drop energy just like in the last co-op event, called “heavenly energy” here. You must then deliver this energy at a designated location. However, if you are hit by an enemy, you will lose all your energy. Once you have completed a wave, the next enemies will appear.

In total, you have 10 minutes to complete the challenge. There is a chance that the event will be affected:

  • Star Wandering: The drop locations change position.
  • Monstrosity: More strong enemies will appear.
  • Energetic Misery: higher risk of losing all collected energy if you are hit by enemies during the delivery.
A random effect influences the challenge

Once you gather enough energy, you have successfully completed the event.

These rewards are available: If you successfully complete the event, you can collect your reward for 40 pieces of original resin. Your rewards will be

  • the event currency “Essence of the Fading Stars”
  • additional rewards that are yet unknown.

What’s next for the event? So far, we do not know how the event will proceed. However, we will keep you updated on what you need to know about the new event on MeinMMO.

Genshin Impact: Fresh Produce Find and Craft

What is this needed for? For a quest during the third event segment, you need “Delicious Fresh Produce, Qingce Style.” A man who has awakened does not want to talk to you until he has eaten properly. You need to cook him a “Delicious Fresh Produce, Qingce Style.”

This dish is needed for a quest during the event

Here is the recipe: Once you have accepted the quest, you can buy the recipe from Miss Bai, the miller of the village Qingce. It will cost you 5000 Mora. She is located in the far east of the village.

What you need for crafting: Afterwards, you can use the cooking station just a few steps away for cooking. For the fresh produce, you need the following ingredients:

  • 3 Champions
  • 2 Lotuses
  • 1 Jueyun Pepper
  • 1 Cabbage

Here are the ingredients: You can find lotuses and Jueyun peppers both in Qingce and in the nearby irrigated fields. Champions grow under the trees, and you can get cabbage from crates or market stalls.

Genshin Impact Event: Additional Rewards

Additional Tasks: Three more quests are unlocked in each event section (a total of 9 tasks).

Each task rewards you with event currency and 40 Original Resin each. Overall, you can collect up to 360 Original Resin, which is worth it. Original Resin is the in-game currency that you use in the Gacha System of the game.

Additional tasks during the event

What is this currency? During the event, you can collect during the challenges “Power of the Waning Stars” and “Essence of the Waning Stars.”

What can you spend the currency on? You can exchange your Power or Essences at the action vendor for various items:

  • Materials for character ascension such as “Hero’s Wit,” which gives you 20,000 EXP per use.
  • Mystic Enhancement Ore, which you can use to upgrade your weapons.
  • Various materials to improve talents.
  • The Crown of Insight.

Other characters can also become very strong. In this article, we present a strong build for Baidou, which makes the swordswoman a real strong damage dealer. Thanks to this build, she can easily take on bosses.
