Ready to light up those ancient machines and restore the withering Dream Forest? Let‘s do this!
What Are The Farrwicks?
Before we dive in, let‘s quickly cover what the Farrwicks actually are. Farrwicks are ancient magical devices created by the vanished civilization of Vissudha Vanarana long ago. They were designed to harness the power of Khvarena, a mystical Dendro element embued with dreams and ambition.
The denizens of Vanarana used Farrwicks to operate complex machines and conduits across the forest. Now in present day, by collecting the two Farrwicks that have been lost to time, you can charge up these ancient mechanisms and make progress in puzzles, domains, and quests. Think of them like magical batteries that cast a "followchain" on you!
Getting The First Farrwick
The journey starts in the Court of Flowing Sand. After completing the Gone With the Wind quest, you‘ll obtain the first Farrwick. Check your inventory and map – you should see an icon indicating the Farrwick‘s location.
Next comes finding its partner to fully energize the machines. Let‘s get to tracking down Farrwick #2!
Following The Seelie Guide
From the Court of Flowing Sand, head northeast following the Farrwick‘s map marker. You‘ll come across groups of standard Hilichurl enemies along the path. I recommend bringing your best DPSer like Ganyu or Hu Tao to blaze through them quickly.
After defeating or evading the Hilichurls, you‘ll spot a small Seelie spirit up ahead. Interact with it to initiate its challenge.
Tip: Using an archer like Fischl or Yoimiya to activate the Seelie from a distance can avoid ambushes by hidden enemies.
The Seelie will start zipping through the forest trails, so keep a close eye on it! Hitting it with a ranged attack periodically will keep its path illuminated too.
Following the Seelie through the winding forest
Let the Seelie guide lead you off the main path and into a cave opening overgrown with vines and roots. Light any torches you see along the way to help brighten the darkened cavern passages.
Eventually it will bring you to a wide chamber filled with more standard Hilichurls and a few pyro slingers. This is where the real fun begins!
Clearing The Enemy Chamber
Now it‘s time to put your combat skills to the test. I recommend swapping to a powerful AoE damage dealer like Raiden Shogun to wipe out groups of enemies at once. A shielder like Zhongli will also help block attacks from multiple angles.
Prioritize taking out the pyro slingers first so they don‘t barrage you with explosions from afar. Lure melee Hilichurls into chokepoints to take them out efficiently.
Once the room is cleared, take a moment to heal and recharge energy if needed. The hard part is over!
Activating The Switches
After the enemies are defeated, scour the chamber for a conspicuous switch on the wall. Activating it will open the metal gate beneath the platform you‘re standing on.
Carefully drop down through the opened gate. Going around the side helps avoid some fall damage. Down here you‘ll see another similar switch on the wall. Interact with it to drain the water from the chamber, exposing a Khvarena dendrogranum waiting to be collected!
With the water fully drained, you can safely grab the second Khvarena containing the Farrwick power source. Just like that, you‘ve completed the retrieval. Nice work!
Puzzle Solving Tips
Here are some tips to make the switch activation process smooth:
-
Use archers or catalyst users to hit switches from a distance without getting ambushed.
-
Have Geo Traveler‘s elemental skill ready to block enemy projectiles when you drop down.
-
Activate Elemental Vision to easily spot the switches on walls.
-
Co-op makes flipping both switches much easier with multiple players.
Dialogue With Nasejuna
Once you‘ve acquired the second Farrwick, head back and speak to Nasejuna, the Aranara assisting you. She will express relief that you‘ve returned safely and can now harness the power of both Farrwicks to unlock more of Vissudha Vanarana‘s mysteries.
Where To Go From Here
Claiming the second Farrwick allows you access to several new domains and quests in the forests of Vanarana. Here are some recommendations on where to explore next:
Molten Iron Fortress – Challenge this new high-risk domain to earn artifacts like the Gilded Dreams set.
Somalata Inland Sea – Unlock new fishing spots and catch fish like the Sweet Shrimp.
Purification Spring – Complete this domain to gather ascension materials for new characters.
A Prayer Beads‘ String – Continue this quest chain to learn lore about the forest‘s history.
Finding both Farrwicks is an important step in your Sumeru journey. Their power will help restore the withering Dream Forest and unlock more puzzles. I hope this guide has prepped you to take on the challenges ahead. Let me know if you have any other questions! I‘m always happy to help new Travelers explore this magical realm.
