This is a battle event where players fight enemies in an arena and complete various challenges. There will be one new challenge each day, with three difficulty levels.
New Event with the Oceanid, Wishful Drops
The livestream revealed that in Genshin Impact 1.4, Travelers will partner up with a mini Oceanid called Endora to explore areas and absorb Oceanid creatures. As you capture more and more Oceanid creatures and make Endora grow, the challenge boss Raging Rhodeia will appear. It’s a different version of the Oceanid boss fight, with different attack patterns. And where you can deal damage to it directly.
There are five areas to explore with Endora. Once you adsorb all the Oceanid creatures in an area, you’ll obtain a Heart of the Spring item. Raging Rhodeia’s rewards are redeemed with this item..
The mini Oceanid will join permanently – like the Treasure Search Seelie – once you complete all the event.

The event will go from March 8 to March 21, 2021, in Chinese KFC restaurants.
