Genshin Impact — Guiding Light puzzles guide

Guiding Light puzzles in Genshin Impact are all about using mirrors to refract or reflect rays. There are several of these found in Enkanomiya now that the Three Realms Gateway Offering event is active. Here’s our Genshin Impact Guiding Light puzzles guide (wow, “guiding guide,” eh?) to help you with the solutions to these challenges.

Note: For more information about the game, check out our Genshin Impact guides and features hub. Likewise, you can take a look at our main guide for the Three Realms Gateway Offering event.

Genshin Impact – Guiding Light puzzle solutions guide

As you can see in the featured image above, Guiding Light puzzles in Genshin Impact have mirrors with two elements: Cryo and Hydro. Some of these objects can be rotated, but you may also change their elemental type.

Cryo mirrors will reflect the beam and cause it to bounce away. However, Cryo mirrors can also be melted by using Pyro, turning them into Hydro mirrors instead. Hydro mirrors, meanwhile, will cause the beam to pass through them. They can be frozen and turned into Cryo variants. In any case, you can refer to the pages below for the parts that you need help with:

• The Narrows (northwest)
• Evernight Temple (northeast)
• Serpent’s Heart (south)
• Sidequest: Bunkoku Enigma – An entire section of this quest has several Guiding Light puzzles that need to be solved so you can obtain stone slates.

Note: For each and every puzzle, you can go near the device and press “Z” with the Bokuso Box equipped. This will cause the device to fire the ray of light.
