Where to Get the Five Shades of Fortune Quest
 |
Ji Tong stands in the northern part of the harbor of Li Yue. Approach and talk to him.
Walkthrough Five Shades of Fortune
Speak with Ji Tong at Li Yue Harbor to receive a special "camera".
Equip the camera from the tools section of your inventory. Follow the prompts and take a photo of the indicated object to get a "photo" of a random shade. When shooting, you can zoom and rotate the lens to fit the target into the focus frame.
There is no need to press a button, just hover over an object to take a photo.
Tip: remember to keep a safe distance if you want to take pictures of the enemies.
A special "camera" can be used in multiplayer mode. This is a great way to find subjects with friends.
Travelers who cannot get the photos they want can try sharing photos with friends.
For the first 7 days after the start of the event, Travelers will receive 10 available photos every day. Finished photos can be shared with friends.
Find Ji Tong
You start the event by talking to Ji Tong, who is in Li Yue's harbor. He will then ask you to take some pictures of different areas of Li Yue using his broken camera.
Ji Tong needs 5 photos
Trading each type of photo during the event will earn you rewards, including Mora and Source Stones!
Share photos with friends
To make it easier to collect photos, you can share photos with your friends in Discord. If you have a duplicate of one of the five photos, share it or trade it with others!
