A Comprehensive Guide to Processing Genshin Impact‘s Mysterious Machinations
Fontaine dazzles visitors with its bustling urban cityscape brimming with technological marvels. But a ominous history hides behind the shining fixtures and chrome spires. In the shadows, an insatiable drive for innovation spiraled out of control and brought calamity to the land.
You feel the region‘s turbulent past echoed in the empty laboratories, abandoned experiments, and cryptic mechanisms littering forgotten corners. One such relic lies in Fontaine‘s enigmatic widgets – cards of encrypted data bonded to portable power sources.
Once part of a disastrous energy research initiative, today unprocessed widgets lay dormant without purpose. However, upon locating the rumored processing sites, you can reactivate their long-slumbering potential…
A Brief History of Kinetic Energy Experiments Gone Awry
To understand widgets, we must first peer into Fontaine‘s obsession with kinetics research in an ambitious initiative called Project ARK. Prominent scientists like Gold sought to unlock clean energy by studying perpetual motion machines. If successful, they could enable society to abandon risky fire/flood-power dependency.
Initial prototypes proved promising, transforming kinetic motions into sustainable energy via clever converters. However ambitious goals soon gave way to reckless ambition. In misguided attempts to maximize outputs, researchers created volatile reactors threatening public safety.
When the first ARK experiments self-destructed in calamitous explosions, outrage halted the program immediately. Quickly covered-up, the dangerous research faded from public memory. Yet relics of that era – like unprocessed widgets – remain strewn about Fontaine to this day.
Examining the Inner Workings of a Mysterious Widget
From the outside, widgets appear as innocuous metal cards emblazoned with cryptic markings. However their mundane facade hides sophisticated tech. Prying open a widget‘s armored shell reveals intricately stacked components:
Outer Shielding – Protects internal mechanisms from damage
Kinetic Absorbers – Compacts harness ambient motions into transferable energy
Encryption Chips – Stores data in shielded logical format
Regulation Nodes – Stabilizes energy outputs at sustainable levels
Transfer Protocols – Allows sharing energy/data with compatible reactors
This compact construction allows a single widget to siphon subtle environmental movements – footsteps, gears turning, doors opening – into reusable power. The absorbed kinetic energy also links to encrypted data in the chipset, implying the card can directly interact with (and likely activate) separate machines.
Perhaps Project ARK scientists developed widgets as regulators attuning unruly reactors to safe parameters by feeding real-time environmental data. Or widgets served as rapid energy vectors channeling motion into portable batteries.
Either way, on their own, drained widgets now lay disconnected from receptive systems. But by locating the rumored processing machines scattered about, we can re-link widgets to decrypt their deeper purpose!
Step-by-Step Guide: Activating and Operating A Temperamental Widget Machine
Through exploratory spelunking in Fontaine‘s derelict workshops, you discover an odd contraption choked in dust and vines. Cleaning away debris reveals a chamber matching widget dimensions and obscure prompts. Can this forgotten invention still process unresponsive widgets?
Feeding a widget into the machine sparks clanking convulsions across pipework as driving pistons shudder to life! Quickly now, operate the finicky device before it overloads completely!
Inserting The Widget
First, locate an unprocessed widget in the overworld or purchase from a local curiosity shop. Holding the widget near the vacant chamber triggers a "Begin Processing" message. Choose the prompt and brace for chaos!
Note: Double check you inserted a widget! Failing to properly load cargo halts activation.
Cooling Ramped Up Reactors
With widgets loaded, reactors blast steam and angry red lights signal overheating sequencers!
Rapidly attack to vent heat and prevent total meltdown. Each bout of blows slightly advances inner workings to align widget chips. I recorded 15-20 rounds of attacks stabilizing most configurations.
Utilize ranged characters like Yanfei or Yoimiya for easy access during the frantic cooling phase. Melee fighters risk getting trapped behind smoking vents in the device‘s defensive proximity shielding.
Realigning Energy Flows
Between attack waves, watch for platforms glowing beneath the machine. Leap atop to generate dynamic energy arcs realigning widget outputs to calibration nodes.
Caution: Missing the activation window suspends widget feeding, requiring reboot!
Use Kazuha/Venti to fluidly glide into position once glowing initiates. Sprinters like Ayaka also race reliably onto platforms.
Repeat Cycles Until Completion
Chaining attack sessions cooling reactors with platform charging to redistribute energy prunes risky currents. Eventually (after 1-3 minutes) the device eases into optimized humming, safely processing widget contents!
When lights calm to blue, retrieve your tuned widget from chambers and head to the next phase conducting Fontaine‘s encrypted orchestras!
Expert Team Composition To Streamline Processing
Conquering processing challenges requires bringing the right characters armed with appropriate gear. Here are the ideal squad roles for mastering widget Machinations:
Main DPS
- Yoimiya – Rapid pyro bow normal attacks
- Fischl – Drop Oz for fire & forget damage
Sub DPS
- Beidou – Overload detonations hit wide areas
- Xingqiu – Additional vaporize reactions help spike damage
Healer
- Kuki Shinobu – Constant electro application from skill
- Diona – Reduces meltdown damage/impact force
Support
- Venti – Increased aerial dash speed to reach platforms
- Zhongli – Shields absorb instability punishment
Fill offensive slots mainly with archers/catalysts to avoid chasing down the temperamental device. Select anemo supports provide mobility while defensive choices mitigate freak accidents!
Essential Optimization Gear
- Instructor/Noblesse Artifact Sets: Boost elemental mastery
- Wanderer‘s Troupe: Enhance charged attack output
- Sacrificial Bows: Resets cooldowns if luck procs
Assembly this arrangement adjusting for your personal armory to react smoothly processing Fontaine‘s mysterious widgets!
Concluding Thoughts on Harnessing Lost Technology
Experimenting with antiquated inventions invites thrilling potential paired with unpredictable peril. The genius and hubris Fontaine researchers equally echo across widgets and processing engines. Both reachable promise and disastrous consequences.
Yet risk seems a requisite ingredient when steering civilizations towards progress. Without ARK scientist willing to court calamity by breaching new frontiers, perhaps we‘d remain resigned relying on traditional elements perpetually.
So study widgets not in scorn of those misfired attempts, but in reverence for their bold inquiry. Let archived accidents serve as guiding pillars when charting our own technological horizons. The future waits to be fashioned by their example.
Now quickly, more widgets await processing to unveil whatever hidden purpose Project ARK‘s wayward scientists encoded within…
