Genshin Impact 4.3 Lost Riches Event Overview

Situated in the picturesque Fontaine, the “Lost Riches” event, part of Version 4.3, unfolds its treasure-laden narrative from January 2, 2024, to January 15, 2024.

Each day, six distinct treasure areas will unlock, beckoning players to embark on a journey of discovery.

This time, your trusty Seelie companion needs a little “energy boost” to sniff out the treasure. Collect purple particles scattered across the designated area, and once the Seelie is fully charged, it’ll lead you straight to the buried loot. But be warned, some challenges await along the way!

  • Adventure Rank 20 or higher
  • Unlocked any Statue of The Seven in Fontaine

To begin your treasure hunt, you’ll need to be an Adventure Rank 20 and have unlocked any Statue of The Seven in Fontaine.

  • The first energy emission is on top of a broken pillar, triggering a Pufferfriut Challenge.
  • The second energy emission is further underwater, near a sunken ship, also triggering a Pufferfriut Challenge.
  • Be careful not to hit the Dirty Fruits during the challenges, as it will reset your progress.

  • After completing all three challenges, head to the dig site, located in an opening, and unearth the Precious Chest.

In this area, you will need to find a total of six energy emissions. Follow this walkthrough to uncover the treasures:

  • Head northeast from the teleport waypoint to locate the first energy emission. It can be found on top of a broken pillar.
  • After absorbing the first energy emission, enter the Hydro portal to be transported to a new location. Once you arrive, search near the bushes to find the second energy emission.
  • From your current location, head east to find the third energy emission. It is situated atop a broken tree. Interacting with it will activate the Treasure-Seeking Seelie, which will mark the location of the chest on the minimap. Follow the map and complete the challenge to obtain the first treasure in Genshin Impact 4.3 Lost Riches Treasure Area 3.
  • Proceed north from your previous location to discover the fourth energy emission. It can be found above a similar broken tree.

Lost Riches Treasure Area 4 Walkthrough

Your mission in this area is to assist the Treasure-Seeking Seelie in this region by activating three energy emissions cleverly concealed within Mist Bubbles.

  • Upon teleporting to the underwater waypoint, the first energy emission awaits. Engage in a Pufferfruit challenge, bursting Mist Bubbles to release the energy. Remember, target only the yellow Pufferfruits, avoiding the brown Dirty Fruits that sap the Seelie’s power.
  • Journey eastward for the second energy orb. Here, the Pufferfruit challenge takes a twist, with some fruits in constant motion. Utilize the Xenochromatic Jellyfish’s ability to blast away the Pufferfruits without accidentally touching the Dirty Fruits.

  • Swim northward to find the final energy emission. This time, face a combat challenge against Fontemer Aberrants. Use Xenochromatic creatures’ abilities to your advantage and vanquish these foes, fully revitalizing the Treasure-Seeking Seelie.

With all three energy emissions activated, the Seelie will guide you to the treasure’s location. Dive into the marked spot and unearth a Precious Chest brimming with riches: 20 Primogems, 90 Ancient Iron Coins, and a hefty Mora reward.
