Step-by-Step Walkthrough
1. Locate the Mission Area
Travel eastward from the Sretomorozsk Teleport Waypoint until a stranded vessel comes into view. Here, you will pick up the sound of a Voice Beneath the Ice pleading for assistance. Note that this sound originates from a frozen block resting on nearby fragile ice rather than the boat itself.
Keep an eye out for a prominent pipe protruding from the ice block, surrounded by easily identifiable explosive barrels. Approaching this zone will prompt a conversation to begin.
2. Break the Surface Ice
To uncover the hidden wooden cabin, you must shatter the surrounding brash ice. Utilize:- Heavy attacks powered by claymore wielders- Pyro abilities (such as those from Bennett or Xiangling)- Detonating explosive barrels (mind the area-of-effect blast range)
Destroying the ice causes the block to submerge, revealing the cabin resting atop it.
3. Pull the Wooden Cabin Ashore
The central mechanic involves constructing Grappling Guns directly onto water surfaces. The structure features a designated hook designed to catch the Grappling Gun’s cable.
- Initial Grappling Device: Deploy it in accordance with the objective indicator situated close to the wreck.
- Second Grappling Device: Construct this one over the water surface right in front of the previous tool.
- Proceed with Hauling: Continue positioning Grappling Guns to drag the cabin toward dry land. Although waypoint indicators guide placement, the pulling physics can occasionally feel stiff. Should the cabin become jammed, simply log out and back in to reset its placement.
- Final Grappling Device: Set up the last gun on the water close to the final destination marker.
Tip: Verify that the connection line visually links to the hook prior to triggering the Grappling Gun. This guarantees the tool successfully reaches its target.
4. Collect Your Payout
Once the cabin successfully reaches the shore, the occupant identifies themselves as Chulkaturin (without physically appearing). Your earned compensation includes:
| Reward | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Adventure EXP | 250 |
| Primogem | 30 |
| Mora | 20,000 |
| Hero’s Wit | 2 |
| Mystic Enhancement Ores | 3 |
| Precious Chest | 1 |
Troubleshooting
- Cabin stuck oddly: Restart the game session to reset its coordinates.
- Grappling Gun fails to connect: Confirm the targeting indicator line appears on the hook. Modify your angle and positioning.
- Ice block missing: Search for the large pipe and surrounding explosive barrels near the shipwreck.
