The final Phase of the Shadow of the Ancients Event inGenshin Impact Version 2.2has started, pitting us in a challenge against a regenerative Ruin Grader, here are some tips to help.
First, keep in mind that in order to unlock Phase 3 of Shadow of the Ancients, you’ll need to have completed Phase 1 Investigative Surveys, and Phase 2 Data Sampling. Be sure to checkour previous guideif you need some help.
Clearing the Autonomous Mechanical Energy Source: Live Sample quest
After clearing Phase 1 and 2, you’ll unlock this final quest: Autonomous Mechanical Energy Source: Live Sample. After activating navigation through the Event menu, go speak back to Hosseini in Ritou. He’ll tell you to go to Tsurumi Island to place the tree Pursina’s Spikes.
Once you teleport to Tsurumi Island, where you first fought the Ruin Grader, you’ll be asked to place the Pursina’s Spikes. It works the same way as in Phase 1. You need to use the Ayesha’s Chaos Prospectors gadget to find three suitable locations:
Once you’re done, go back speak to Hosseini and you’ll unlock the Phase 3 challenge: Live Testing. This is the final showdown against the Anomalous Model Ruin Grader.
Phase 3 Live Testing guide - Achievments and Primogems, how to defeat the Anomalous Model Ruin Grader
This is just like in Phase 2, you’ll need at least one Electro character to charge the Pursina’s Spikes. Once the three spikes are fully charged, the fight ends and it’s your victory. If any of the three spikes get destroyed, you will fail the challenge.
Here’s the list of achievements. You need to focus on completing “Destroy the Anomalous Model Ruin Grader’s weak points 8 times”. That’s the most important achievement, besides clearing the event once. Because Primogems are the rewards. As a reminder, its weak points are on its legs. They get exposed when it does its laser attack.
You’ll need to do the fight at least three times to get all the rewards. The hardest achievement is definitely “complete the challenge with all Pursina’s Spikes at over 50% structural integrity (HP).” To clear this, you need to be careful and stun the Ruin Grader right before it tries to attack one of the spikes.
