Genshin Impact Luna I: The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar Quest Guide

The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar is one of the main quests in the Polkka Beneath the Moon’s Oracle World Quest in Nod-Krai in the Genshin Impact Luna I update. This quest will also help players find one of Nod-Krai’s Local Legends, increasing its importance a lot. The quest is fairly simple overall, but the final fight can be tricky for many players. So, follow our The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar quest guide in Genshin Impact to avoid every obstacle.

How to Start The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar Quest in Genshin Impact

The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar quest can be started by visiting Frostmoon Enclave and jumping into the huge opening on the ground west of the meeting point. There will be a Teleport Point nearby to help you find the location. Jump into the crater to find Maite and start the quest. This quest is also connected to finding one of Nod-Krai’s Local Legends— Crab Tsar.

How to Complete The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar Quest in Genshin Impact

The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar quest is divided into multiple small sub-quests:

• Advance Deeper into the Cave
• Catch up to the Crab Tsar
• Destroy the Obstacles
• Search for traces of the Crab Tsar
• Advance deeper into the cave
• Calm the Crab Tsar down

The following section has guides for each of the sub-quests in The Mirrors, the Maze, and the Tsar questline.

1. Advance Deeper into the Cave

After you speak with Maite, the first thing you will need to do is go deeper into the cave. Eventually, you will come across the Crab Tsar, who will block your way with pillars. Use the power of Kuuvhaki to break the pillars and advance.

2. Catch up to the Crab Tsar and Destroy the Obstacles

Next, you have to continue heading deep into the cave, following the path of Crab Tsar. Keep going until you reach a dead-end with a small crab near it. Here, you will have to place a Lakkaberry on the ground to feed the Crab and break the shield blocking your way.

Lakkaberry can be found inside the cave or above. You will need more in the Nod-Krai map region, so make sure to collect a bunch before heading inside.

Now, you will find similar obstacles along the way and have to use the crabs located there to open the way forward.

3. Search for Traces of the Crab Tsar

Head to the next area and look around until you get the Investigate option on your screen. This place will be blocked by mirrors without a clear way forward. A cutscene will start where someone from the Frostmoon Scions will appear and speak with Maite and the traveler.

4. Advance deeper into the Cave

After the conversation ends, head into the cave and look for a glass on the ground with the Crab Tsar’s image. Stand on top of it to break the glass and head underground. Now keep going deeper, eventually using the Kuuvhanki lines to ascend into the next area. You will eventually come across the Crab Tsar, where you will have to calm it down.

5. Calm the Crab Tsar Down

Now, you will have to confront the Crab Tsar and calm it down by beating it at its own game. A traditional combat won’t work here, as the fight uses gimmicks instead. The Crab Tsar will hide inside mirrors while lifting stone pillars at you.

Avoid the stone pillars rising from the ground, and eventually, you will get an option to break the pillars using Kuuvhaki. Break the pillars, and then a crab will rise with a Kuuvhaki detonation bomb. Press ‘T’ to pick up the bomb and throw it at the mirror with the Crab Tsar.

Once you do that, the Crab Tsar boss will create more mirrors and increase his attack speed. With more mirrors, you will have to track the Crab Tsar before attacking it. Continue doing the above strategy for five more turns to complete the battle. After that, a cutscene will start, and the mission will be completed.
