How Blooms for the Shadow Works
Unlock it in the main quest
Meet the Nexus Fox Shadow in Mengxuan Vale during Chapter IV Act IV "Simulacrum of the Heart".
Gather Thousandfold Petals
Petals of different rarities are spread across the three Heart Realms of the Fox Shadow; Dream Jade Rootstone puzzles are one source.
Offer them at the Heart Calmer Altars
Each Heart Realm has its own altar. Offerings level that realm up, pay rewards and raise Heart Realm Stability.
Build the Fox Shadow’s trust
Higher stability raises the Fox Shadow’s trust, which unlocks stronger bonuses across the whole Simulacrum Nexus.
Requirements
- Meet the Nexus Fox Shadow in Mengxuan Vale in Main Quest "Simulacrum of the Heart".
Tips
- It is permanent, so there is no rush — but the trust bonuses make the rest of the Simulacrum Nexus easier, which argues for doing it early.
- Collect petals while you explore for Dreams in the Capsule; the two overlap and Dreams in the Capsule does close on November 11.
