How to Reach Heart Island?

There are two ways to reach Heart Island:

Option A: Making an Ice Road

Cryo characters can create an ice platform when their skills hit the water. However, not all Cryo Vision carriers are efficient to make an Ice Road.

  • Luckily, the best option is the OG Kaeya, which he a free character for all players.
    • Kaeya produces long-lasting ice platforms, and his Elemental Skill has a low Cooldown.
  • Teleport to Yaoguang Shoal. This is the best starting point.
  • Make sure to keep an eye on the map and do not get wet.

Option B: Flying/Gliding to the Island

For this option, players require an Anemo character. If you do not have one, remember the traveler can get Anemo power in the Statue of the Seven in Mondstadt.

  • We recommend bringing Amber into your team. Her passive skill decreases gliding stamina consumption by 20%.
  • Teleport to Guyun Stone Forest, move to the land near the Geo Hypostasis.
  • At the top of the north hill, there is a Clover Pinwheel that you can activate with an Anemo Skill to generate a Wind Current.
  • Glide from the Highest point of the wind current, you can consume restoring dishes in case you are running out of stamina in the way:
    • Barbatos Ratatouille
    • Cream Stew
    • Lotus Seed and Bird Egg Soup

Heart Island Secrets

Once players land on this tiny Island, they can find a rock structure with a heart shape.

However, if you visit the Island alone, the only thing you will find is a Geoculus. Therefore, to reveal the secret in this place, you need to bring a friend.

Very romantic, right? Well, once you find a friend to come with, both characters have to stay inside the Heart Shape.

Standing together will activate the mechanism. A Luxurious Chest will spawn, and the Secret Achievement: Unswerving will be unlocked.

Sometimes the mechanism is a bug. You can fix this, kicking your friend from the Co-Op and inviting them again.
