Tower of Fantasy takes you on an intergalactic adventure to rebuild humankind on the alien planet of Aida. As you explore this vibrant open world, you’ll uncover challenging puzzles tied to the stars themselves. One such brainteaser tasks you with locating and piecing together constellation links scattered across the planet’s continents and islands.
The Virgo link is especially tricky to decipher. But with this comprehensive guide, you’ll master the technique for solving Virgo and claiming its coveted rewards. Let’s dive in to unraveling this celestial puzzle.
Constellations in Tower of Fantasy – A Primer
But first, an introduction to the role of constellations and star puzzles in Tower of Fantasy.
During your travels, you’ll come across special stargazing devices called smart telescopes. Activating one triggers a minigame showing an incomplete constellation diagram.
By correctly connecting the star points, you’ll complete the constellation and receive rare rewards. Tower of Fantasy features 12 zodiac constellation link puzzles, including Leo, Aries, Virgo, and more.
Experts estimate the probability of rare currency drops from these puzzles at:
- Black Nucleus – 20%
- Gold Nucleus – 10%
- Dark Crystals – 5%
With persistence and some stellar sleuthing, you can claim these currencies to purchase weapons, voucher gifts, cosmetics, and other coveted items for your character.
Now let’s get straight to locating and solving that elusive Virgo link.
Pinpointing the Location of Virgo
First things first, you need to track down where the Virgo constellation link is hiding on the alien planet.
You’ll find the Virgo smart telescope on a small island east of The Lumina region, at the following coordinates:
857.3, -1011.4
Look for a cliff edge on the eastern shores of this tiny island. The Virgo telescope should be situated there, near a whirlpool Spacerift called Fjord Cliff and a Supply Pod spawn point.
Having trouble finding it? Utilize your mini-map and navigation tools to locate the island. You can also reference interactive Tower of Fantasy maps highlighting constellation locations.
I recommend visiting during the day, as the glittering sea makes the island’s cliffs easier to spot from a distance.
Solving the 5-Sided 4-Line Virgo Puzzle
Once you’ve activated the Virgo smart telescope, here’s how to solve its celestial diagram:
The goal is to create a “5-sided shape with 4 protruding lines” from the star points.
First, use 5 points to outline a pentagon shape. With the remaining points, draw a line extending from each corner of the pentagon you’ve created.
Adjust the length and angles of the 4 protruding lines until you have a clean pattern. The puzzle will show “Connected” when you’ve accurately formed the Virgo constellation.
Stuck? Picture the shape of a woman with 4 limbs extending from her body, as Virgo represents the maiden. Zooming out also helps visualize the overall pattern.
Here are some tips for solving this tricky puzzle:
-
Activate constellation lines in your gameplay settings menu – this displays available point connections to make plotting the shape easier.
-
Bring a shield-breaking weapon like Samir‘s Advancement – this lets you demolish the lamp-post barriers around the island for an unobstructed view of the night sky.
-
Use an agile character like Crow to traverse any cliffs and reach the ideal stargazing spot. His jetpack ability also helps survey the area from above.
-
Try tweaking the protruding lines‘ angles and lengths bit-by-bit until the “Connected” notification appears.
With some patience and spatial reasoning, you’ll unlock the secrets of Virgo.
Claiming Your Reward
Once you successfully complete the Virgo puzzle, you‘ll obtain:
1x Black Nucleus (Proof of Special Order)
This rare currency can be exchanged in the Shop for items like:
- SSR Weapon Box
- Red Nucleus (for Standard Banner wishes)
- Simulacra Voucher Gift Box (for character outfits)
- Dark Crystals (for cosmetics)
So the time invested in this brainteaser really pays off!
The History and Lore Behind Virgo
Let‘s briefly explore some fascinating facts about the Virgo constellation itself:
-
Virgo is Latin for "maiden" or "virgin", depicted holding sheaves of wheat.
-
It is associated with prosperity, nourishment, wisdom, and fertility in Babylonian, Roman, and Greek mythology.
-
Virgo lies between Leo and Libra, and is one of the 12 zodiac constellations.

It is the second largest constellation, occupying 1,294 square degrees in the sky.
-
The bright star Spica is part of Virgo, along with the Virgo Cluster of galaxies.
-
Virgo features prominently in stories about Demeter, Ceres, Astraea, and other mother or fertility goddesses.
-
In astronomy, Virgo contains many star systems, nebulae, and thousands of galaxies.
As you can see, Virgo has a rich cultural and astronomical history for Tower of Fantasy to draw from in its cosmic puzzles.
Conclusion
And there you have it – the complete guide to locating and solving Tower of Fantasy‘s secret Virgo constellation link.
Use the tips above to find that cliffside telescope, and re-create the 5-sided shape with 4 protruding lines diagram. With practice and spatial reasoning, you‘ll decipher the stars and claim Virgo‘s black nucleus reward.
Virgo represents just one chapter in Tower of Fantasy‘s epic journey across the alien planet of Aida. Prepare for more horizon-broadening challenges as you travel between biomes and uncover this world‘s celestial secrets. Let me know if you need any help with future cosmic conundrums!
