Genshin Impact Fleeting Colors update launches three pretty big events

The Genshin Impact Fleeting Colors event is here, and it actually comes with three events in one. Here’s how they work.

So this one is really easy to kick off (just select the quest and head to Liyue), and will grant you the “launch tube” gadget. The questline is all about fireworks, and will allow you to smelt your own to launch.

These are like a minor puzzle of sorts. You have a capped amount of energy to expend to craft each firework type, and they have three parameters that need to be filled to a certain level on a bar (you can fill them too little or too much). Energy can be used with different abilities, like “increasing one greatly and the other two slightly,” or “increasing one by a moderate amount.” Your job is to get all three bars lined up without going overboard or using too much energy. It’s pretty easy to get the hang of, and make sure you use the “multiple levels” abilities often to save time.

Subsequent firework puzzles are timed unlocks, with the last one coming in four days from publication. Once you make the fireworks, you can actually launch them into the air for fun.

This is arguably the most interesting and complex of the three event quests. You’ll be heading to the Guyun Stone Forest (southeast of the map to the east of Liyue) to sail around the island formation, salvage loot, and fight pirates. You’ll even get a ship!

Once you pick up the quest go to the lower right hand corner (circled above) and jump off the tallest mountain onto the huge barge off of the coast. The NPCs there will grant you your miniature ship, which can be accessed at the compass icons (again, circled) throughout the island.

The shadow portion of the event is easily the most low key.

Once you start it at the Liyue docks,
