The open world of miHoYo's ARPG Genshin Impact is full of many mysteries to discover, and players continue to find these hidden details. One Genshin Impact player has found a clever trick that gets them a free Common Chest with just a bit of patience required.
Reddit user Belle_fleures recently posted a clip of their Genshin Impact adventure in which they're exploring the Golden Apple Archipelago, which is part of the Summertime Odyssey event. Players have about a month to explore the Golden Apple Archipelago during the event to find the many chests that dot the new map. In addition to loot from these chests, players can also acquire a free four-star Genshin Impact Fischl skin, plenty of energy orbs, and more freebies by taking part in the summer event.
Located on Fischl's Island there is a Night Raven Miner that moves along a short track to turn a lantern back on if a Genshin Impact player puts it out for whatever reason. Belle_fleures has discovered a way to get a free chest from this Night Raven Miner by repeatedly darkening his work area by dimming the nearby lantern. After about three times of turning this lantern on Genshin Impact's Fischl Island off, this Night Raven Miner says, "Alright already! Here, take these stuff, and stop bothering me!" Which adds more humor to the normally action-packed adventure in the Golden Apple Archipelago.
Because it's a Genshin Impact Common Chest, this trick will only reward players with Primogems, Sigils, Mora, XP material, and other goodies that offer minor improvements. Belle_fleures acquired the free Common Chest by playing as Genshin Impact's Arataki Itto, but it's likely that any playable hero can annoy the Night Raven Miner to the point that it rewards them as well. Because the Golden Apple Archipelago will be unlocked until the next update at the end of August, more players may discover hidden places and secret tricks like this before the conclusion of Genshin Impact update 2.8.
Many Genshin Impact players have expressed gratitude to Belle_fleures for showing the Fischl Island trick, but the top comment jokes about the regularity of being rewarded for being obstructive in the ARPG. Another fan utilized the opportunity to highlight another achievement that players can find for themselves simply by changing the dialogue volume from zero to ten repeatedly until Genshin Impact hero Paimon steps in. One lucky Genshin Impact player thanked Belle_fleures for their post and dropped more hints of their own as the Fischl Island Common Chest was the last one that they needed to acquire from the Golden Apple Archipelago.
Genshin Impact is available now for mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5.
