Strange Parts in Genshin Impact exemplify the game's dedication to intricate world-building and diverse gameplay elements. As you journey through Fontaine and beyond, keep an eye out for these mysterious screws and seize the opportunities they bring. This guide will delve into the details of Strange Parts, including where to find them and how to use them effectively.
Understanding Strange Parts
Strange Parts are bronze screws with distinctive gears atop them, introduced as a new quest item in Genshin Impact. They are obtained as rewards for completing specific quests and are utilized for advancing in certain quests. Additionally, these parts can be exchanged for various items through interactions with NPCs.
Locating Strange Parts
Strange Parts can be acquired from the following quests:
"Hey, this isn't Pumpkin Soup..."
"The Lone Phantom Sail"
"Book of Esoteric Revelations"
"Echoes of the Ancient World"
"Strange Stone Chronicle"
"The Three Primary Colors of the Solar Corona"
"Were it so Easy"
"Fishing Game"
"A Gradient of Dreams and Ochre"
These quests can be triggered in Merusea Village, located within the Elynas region of Fontaine. By engaging with NPCs and completing these quests, players can earn Strange Parts as rewards. Furthermore, some Strange Parts can be found in chests scattered around Elynas, adding an element of exploration to the collection process.
Usage of Strange Parts
The primary use of Strange Parts is encountered within the "Ancient Colors" world quest series. Here's where they come into play:
Repairing Seymour: To progress in the "Ancient Colors" questline, players need to collect four Strange Parts. These parts are essential for repairing Seymour, the Meka dog, a pivotal element of the quest series.
Trading with Xana: After completing the third act of the "Ancient Colors" world quest, an NPC named Serene will guide players to Xana in Merusea Village. Xana accepts extra Strange Parts in exchange for various items, ranging from Rift Cores to Enigmatic Pages and more.
Optimizing Strange Part Acquisition
To efficiently gather Strange Parts and make the most of their utility, it's recommended to explore Merusea Village fully. Engage with NPCs, complete their quests (even unmarked ones), and interact with objects that might trigger quests. This thorough exploration can lead to not only amassing Strange Parts but also uncovering hidden quests and interactions.
