In Genshin Impact, the Pyro Treasure Compass is a special tool designed to make it easier to find various chests throughout Natlan. Once used, it shows the approximate location of the closest chests with rewards to the character. In this guide, we will tell you how to open and create this gadget, as well as how to use it effectively.
How to Open the Pyro Treasure Compass
The first thing you need to do is unlock the recipe for the required tool. To do this, you will need to get a general reputation level of 3 in Natlan, that is, you will need to raise the level with individual Pyro tribes in the region. You will be able to start earning reputation points after reaching adventure rank 40.
Then simply interact with any character responsible for the reputation of their tribe (in the pictures above, for example, a representative of the Folk of the Springs is shown), open the corresponding menu and in the reward section, go to the tab “House of Councilors Rewards”. Here you will find the corresponding diagram.
How to create a Pyro Treasure Compass
After receiving the necessary blueprint, open your inventory, find it in the “Jewelry” category, and then examine it. Next, you need to talk to any blacksmith in order to create the gadget.
Before you start crafting the specified tool, make sure that you have the required amount of certain materials, namely:
- Golden Raven Seals x10
- Saurian Paw x30
- Crystal Fragment x50
- Mora x50000
Then you will just need to wait half a minute, after which the desired item will appear at your disposal. Note that it is reusable, that is, you only need to craft one compass and use it any number of times.
How to use the Pyro Treasure Compass
After crafting the above item, open your inventory, go to the tab”Tools” and equip your hero with the Pyro Treasure Compass. Note in advance that it only works in Natlan, so in other regions this gadget simply will not turn on.
After entering the Pyro Kingdom, press the “Z” key or the compass icon in the lower right corner of the screen. If there is a chest nearby, you will immediately see a golden glow indicating the direction in which you need to move to find it. We will add that a white treasure icon will also appear on the minimap.
However, there are a few features of this tool that you should be aware of:
- It has a 30-second cooldown, meaning that after successful use it can only be reactivated after half a minute. If the use was unsuccessful, the cooldown will be only 5 seconds.
- The compass does not show secret chests that appear only after solving riddles or are located in story dungeons.
- You will not be able to use the tool during battles.
If the compass suddenly stops working, make sure that you are still in Natlan and have not accidentally wandered into a neighboring region. You may also have already collected all the chests in the nearest area, so go forward in one direction or another, and then activate the gadget again.
If the interactive map shows the location of the chest, but the compass does not show it, then it is either too high or too low. In this case, we recommend that you study our guides on finding chests in Natlan.
