Genshin Impact’s Hues of the Violet Garden event opens Inazuma to the rest of Teyvat with the Magnificent Irodori Festival. It runs from April 7, 2022, to April 25, 2022, and is open to all players Adventure Rank 30 and above who have completed the Ritou Escape Plan segment of the Archon Quest: Chapter II: Act I - The Immovable God and the Eternal Euthymia.

If you have not completed the Inazuma character Story Quests, you must access the event from the Quick Start button on the bottom left of the event menu.

How to Unlock Theater Mechanicus

The Theater Mechanicus mini-game can be unlocked by completing the Event Quest What the Blue Flowers Left Behind. This directly follows The Strange Tale of Suikou’s Tipsy Tincture.

Unlike the previous iterations of Theater Mechanicus, the mechanics for this round are a little different. Co-op mode is no longer allowed and Mystic Arts have been replaced by Fortune Sticks, which can’t be enhanced. Each stage boasts an easy mode (Show of Force) and a hard mode (Enter the Horde).

How to complete Slumber Spirit’s Bridge (Show of Force)

Fortune Sticks

You can use any Fortune Stick that you like, but here are some recommended options to take advantage of Freeze Damage:

  • Fortune Stick: UndercurrentFortune Stick: SwellFortune Stick: Surging FuryFortune Stick: HailstonesFortune Stick: Frost Pellet

Mechanici Placement

For this stage, it’s recommended to take advantage of Freeze Damage to stop fast-moving enemies. Start by removing all of the Binding Mechanici, then configure the stage to look like the image above. You can play around with the placements of the Hydro and Cryo Mechanici. The Crackshot is also optional but is great for dealing extra damage.

Behind the bridge, you can place Binding Mechanici and Crackshots as you see fit. However, you can also defeat the enemies that seep through by turning off the bridge with the mechanism on the second floor.

Watch out for the Ruin Hunters as they move very quickly. You need to turn the bridge off in time or they’ll get through. If you don’t turn the bridge off in time, don’t worry—you only need a score of 2,500 to get all the rewards.
