Fear Not, Traveler! Your Guide to Conquering Fuao Vale Domain (and Avoiding Existential Dread)
Let's face it, Teyvat is a beautiful world, but navigating its hidden corners can feel like deciphering ancient tax codes. Fret no more, for we delve into the not-so-secret secrets of unlocking Fuao Vale Domain!
How To Get Fuao Vale Domain |
Step 1: Welcome to Fuao Vale, Population: You (and Probably Some Slimes)
First things first, get yourself to the glorious Fuao Vale. It's a scenic spot, perfect for picnicking with your party... right after you unlock the domain, that is. Look for the waypoint near The Surface, then take a leisurely stroll southwest. You'll know you're on the right track when you see a Common Chest perched precariously on a pressure plate. Don't worry, it's more interested in existential contemplation than judging your treasure-hunting skills.
Pro Tip: Pack some snacks for this adventure. Domain unlocking can be a hungry business (especially if you get lost and end up befriending a Hilichurl camp for navigation purposes).

Step 2: Enter Geo Daddy (or any other Geo character)
Now comes the slightly less picnicking, slightly more butt-kicking part. You'll need a Geo character to play whack-a-mole with some ancient puzzles. If you have Zhongli, by all means, unleash your inner Geo daddy and show these rocks who's boss. But any Geo character with a knack for rock-making will do the trick (Geo Traveler, we see you!).
Step 3: The Great Geo Pressure Plate Caper
Remember that pressure plate with the Common Chest BFF? This is where the fun begins (cue dramatic music). Place your Geo construct on the plate and prepare to witness... absolutely nothing... yet. Don't panic! The magic is about to happen.
QuickTip: A careful read saves time later.![]()
Important Note: If nothing happens, make sure you're using a Geo character and their actual Geo skill, not just flailing a pickaxe dramatically. Teyvat rewards finesse, not brute caveman force.
Step 4: Follow the Yellow Brick Wind Ring
Once you activate the pressure plate, a helpful wind ring will appear. Follow its lead like a loyal puppy (or a puppy with a jetpack, because Teyvat). This will guide you to a giant, grumpy-looking rock pulsating with Geo energy.
QuickTip: Read in order — context builds meaning.![]()
Side Quest: Why is the Rock So Grumpy?
Honestly, who can blame it? It's been stuck there for who knows how long, probably missing out on all the fun meteor showers. Just give it a good whack and move on.
QuickTip: Stop and think when you learn something new.![]()
Step 5: Operation: Rock Obliteration
Now comes the moment of truth. Use a Geo attack, a Claymore (big sword energy!), or a good explosion (because why not?) to hit the grumpy rock. This will trigger a Geo wave that will (hopefully) solve all your problems.
Worst-Case Scenario: You accidentally set yourself on fire with your Klee bombs. Don't worry, Barbara's got your back (and probably a lecture about responsible bomb usage).
Step 6: Voila! The Domain Awaits!
If everything went according to plan (and it should, because you're awesome!), the grumpy rock will get what it deserves, and a pathway to the domain will magically appear. Take a moment to celebrate your victory (and maybe apologize to the rock, just in case it's holding a grudge). Now, you can finally enter the domain and claim your loot!
Congratulations, Traveler! You've conquered Fuao Vale Domain and proven yourself a master puzzle-solver (or at least someone who can follow a glowing wind ring). Now, go forth and claim your rewards! Just remember, if all else fails, brute force and a well-timed explosion can solve most problems in Teyvat.
