Wuthering Waves: Conquering the Shadow of the Past Quest – A Comprehensive Guide

This guide details the Shadow of the Past quest in Wuthering Waves, focusing on locating and completing each of the three Thorncrown Rises towers. Players will encounter Botim south of the Rinascita-Ragunna-Thessaleo Fells northern Resonance Beacon, who explains the tower's plight and offers rewards for cleansing them of shadowy monsters.

Thorncrown Rises Tower Locations:

Three towers must be explored to complete the quest: Resounding Rise (northeast), Twilight Rise (south), and Command Rise (southwest). Each tower represents a sub-quest.

1. Shadow of the Towers: Resounding Rise:

Located northeast of Thorncrown Rises, this tower requires interaction with Itzel. The sub-quest involves navigating the tower's interior, battling Abyssal Mercators, and solving a painting puzzle. The puzzle solution is as follows:

  • Move the top-left painting to the bottom-right display.
  • Move the painting behind the top-left display to the bottom-left display.
  • Move the top-right painting to the top-left display.
  • Move the painting behind the bottom-right display to the top-right display.

Completing the puzzle and final encounter with the Abyssal Mercator weakens one Command Rise Tower barrier.

2. Shadow of the Towers: Twilight Rise:

Found southeast of the Resounding Rise Tower, this section involves Insula. Players will investigate clues, discover a secret passage, defeat an Abyssal Patricius, and ultimately weaken the second Command Rise Tower barrier. The sub-quest involves a time loop mechanic, requiring players to follow the quest marker until the loop is broken by Insula.

3. Shadow of the Towers: Command Rise:

Triggered after completing the first two sub-quests, this final stage begins with a conversation with Insula and Itzel. Players utilize a Wingray to reach the tower, navigate its challenging interior (using grappling mechanics to reach higher levels), and defeat an Abyssal Patricius. Numerous supply chests and two Ragunna Sonance Caskets are located within the tower. Reaching the top reveals Liel's demise. The final encounter with the Abyssal Patricius yields the Call of the Abyss Rectifier and a Premium Supply chest, unlocking the "King of Thessaleo" and "Shadow of the Tower" achievements.
