How do I unlock the hidden domain in Narukami Island in Genshin Impact?

To unlock the hidden domain in Narukami Island, known as the "Moshiri Kara" domain, you need to complete a series of steps that involve solving puzzles and interacting with the environment. This domain is part of the "Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual" questline, which is one of the most intricate and rewarding quests in Inazuma. HereÔÇÖs a detailed guide to help you unlock it.

First, you need to start the "Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual" quest. This quest is initiated by speaking to an NPC named Kazari near the Konda Village. She will give you a quest item called the "Memento Lens," which is crucial for interacting with certain objects in the environment. The Memento Lens allows you to see and interact with small fox statues that are otherwise invisible.

Once you have the Memento Lens, you need to head to the location of the hidden domain, which is near the Kamisato Estate. The domain is located on a small island to the northeast of the estate. To reach this island, you can use the Waverider or glide from a nearby high point. Once you arrive, you will notice several fox statues and a large stone structure.

The first step is to use the Memento Lens on the small fox statues scattered around the area. These statues will reveal symbols that you need to interact with. The symbols are part of a puzzle that requires you to match them in a specific order. The correct order is usually indicated by the environment or by the quest markers. After interacting with the correct symbols, the large stone structure will open, revealing the entrance to the domain.

Before entering the domain, itÔÇÖs important to prepare your team. The enemies inside the domain are primarily Electro-based, so having characters with strong Pyro or Cryo abilities can be very effective. Characters like Diluc, Hu Tao, or Ganyu are excellent choices. Additionally, having a healer like Bennett or Jean can help sustain your team during the battles inside the domain.

For artifacts, focus on increasing your damage output and elemental mastery. Sets like Crimson Witch of Flames for Pyro characters or Blizzard Strayer for Cryo characters can be very effective. Weapons that boost elemental damage or critical rate are also recommended. For example, the WolfÔÇÖs Gravestone for Diluc or the AmosÔÇÖ Bow for Ganyu can significantly enhance your damage output.

Once inside the domain, you will face several waves of enemies, including Electro Samachurls and Electro Abyss Mages. Use your elemental reactions to your advantage. For example, using Pyro attacks to trigger Overloaded reactions can deal massive damage to groups of enemies. Similarly, using Cryo attacks to trigger Superconduct can reduce the physical resistance of enemies, making them easier to defeat.

After defeating all the enemies, you will complete the domain and receive valuable rewards, including Primogems, Mora, and artifacts. Additionally, completing this domain is a crucial step in the "Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual" questline, which will eventually lead you to unlock more areas and secrets in Inazuma.

A common mistake to avoid is not using the Memento Lens correctly. Make sure to scan all the small fox statues in the area to reveal the necessary symbols. Another mistake is not preparing your team adequately. The enemies inside the domain can be challenging, so make sure your characters are well-equipped and leveled up.

In terms of advanced techniques, you can optimize your teamÔÇÖs elemental reactions by using characters with high elemental mastery. For example, pairing Sucrose with a Pyro character can increase the damage of Overloaded reactions. Additionally, using characters with crowd control abilities like Venti or Kazuha can make it easier to manage groups of enemies.

In summary, unlocking the hidden domain in Narukami Island involves completing the "Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual" quest, using the Memento Lens to solve puzzles, and preparing your team for combat. By following these steps and tips, you can successfully unlock the domain and reap its rewards.
