Now let‘s dive into the location itself…

Where to Find "The Gift beside Cider Lake"

Have your map open and teleport directly to the "Starfell Valley, Mondstadt" waypoint.

Starfell Valley Waypoint

Orient yourself facing northwest, and you‘ll spot a lake fed by small waterfalls cascading down the cliffs. Follow along the left side of this riverbank as it winds gently downward.

Route Marked on Map

Pass the wooden bridge crossing over the water, then look toward your left where the path diverges into lush grass. Nestled against a large boulder sits the unassuming Luxurious Chest!

As a side note, this area has Cryo and Hydro Slimes lurking about, so come prepared for battle just in case. Otherwise, sprint forth and revel in your hard-earned prizes Traveler! It should only take about 60 seconds to retrieve the treasure following the instructions above.
