Hidden in the Pavilion of Hermits lies a luxurious chest sealed behind a clever streaming projector puzzle. Solving its trick requires precise timing, keen observation, and a bit of creativity amid the shimmering sights of the Secret Summer Paradise event.
During the Secret Summer Paradise event in Genshin Impact, you may come across a luxurious chest blocked off by a yellow barrier along with a Hydro eidolon. It isn’t very clear how to remove the barrier and unlock the chest, but Paimon does point out the lights outside of the tent have changed colors. You’ll need to change the lights to remove the barrier and unlock the luxurious chest by completing a couple streaming projector puzzles.
Read on to learn how to change the lights and open the luxurious chest.
Pavilion of Hermits chest location
The Pavilion of Hermits is found on the northwest side of the Veluriyam Mirage map, on the upper platforms connected by bubble lanes near the streaming projector area. To reach the luxurious chest, use the nearby water slide and bubble lifts to ascend to the pavilion’s highest tier, then glide toward the isolated platform where the projector puzzle is set up. The chest sits beside the projector structure, slightly off the main path, so explore the edges of the platform after arriving.
The luxurious chest can be found just outside of the large tent in the Pavilion of Hermits section of the Veluriyam Mirage. Once you complete the puzzles inside the tent and return outside, your attention will be directed to the locked chest.
How to unlock the luxurious chest at the Pavilion of Hermits
After completing Secret Summer Paradise: Part II, head to the Pavilion of Hermits and interact with the two Streaming Projector puzzles in the surrounding area, each tied to a trapped Hydro Eidolon inside a preprint or projector stage. Solve both projector setups by placing the colored Brilliant Mirrors or jewels into their matching receptors to clear the stages and spawn Precious Chests, then open these to free the Hydro Eidolons so they travel back to the main tent. Once both Water Droplets have reached the circus tent, their combined power will dispel the yellow barrier around the luxurious chest in front of the pavilion, letting you open it for Primogems, a Joyeux Voucher, and other event rewards.
To remove the barrier surrounding the chest, you’ll need to complete two streaming projector puzzles. The two streaming projectors can be found at the locations marked by stars in the image below.
One of the streaming projectors can be found to the northwest of the luxurious chest, which can be reached by following the path to the north. Head up the stairs and take the wooden elevator to find the streaming projector at the end of the path. The second streaming projector can be found by entering a hollow log to the south of the luxurious chest. Continue to the end of the path to find the streaming projector.
Check out the sections below to find out how to solve the streaming projector puzzles.
Northwestern streaming projector puzzle solution
