How to Solve Genshin Impact Cloud Retainer Custodian of Clouds Puzzles

To solve the puzzles in the Genshin Impact Custodian of Clouds quest – Cloud Retainer, the first step is to activate the fire pillar that greets you as soon as you enter the adept’s abode. This will spawn a bunch of differently-colored Slimes, and you have to defeat ten of them within two minutes. After you’ve dealt with them, approach the cube between the two stone lanterns. Select “Rotate 90 Degrees Counterclockwise.”

Walk all the way to the far platform. There’s a bunch of enemies there that you’ll have to defeat; they’re nothing to write home about. Once you beat them all, approach the cube and select “Rotate 90 Degrees Clockwise.” Walk across the light bridge forward, and then to the left. Once you get to the new “island,” approach the cube on the elevated platform and interact with the cube.

It’ll activate three fire pillars in a specific order which you have to repeat. Use Amber for this challenge. There are three rounds to this challenge, first with three pillars, then four, then five. Just memorize the order and activate the pillars with fire in the allotted time, it’s simple. We’ll show you the combinations we got, since they might be the same for everyone.

Proceed across the light bridges to another fire puzzle. This one is a little more complicated, unfortunately.
