Lantern Rite 2025—aka Springtime Charms—kicks off January 24 and wraps February 9. If you're AR 20+, grind to 1200 Festive Fever for a free Liyue 4-star selector (think Lan Yan, Gaming, Yaoyao, Xiangling, Beidou, Xingqiu, Ningguang, Chongyun, Xinyan, Yun Jin, or Yanfei).

Rack up Fever through Immortal Combat (800 points) or Drills by Lamplight (270 points), plus 1600+ Primogems from logins, mails, and events. Easy F2P gains, right?

Liyue Map: Reward Hotspots

Journal hotspots cluster in Liyue Harbor: 12 Fortune Coins (Normal Attack 'em), 3 Sightseeing Scopes, 3 Tubes. Interact daily—30 Primogems + materials await. Open Journal. Mark Liyue Harbor. Smash those interactables. Gift Envelope NPCs? Event locator has you covered.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Short of 1500 Fever? Finish Drills Stage 6, grab meta pick Lan Yan. Miss Jan 22 login? That's 10 Fates gone. Feb 1-5 mails? 1600 Primogems vanish. Skip Prologue Act 3? No entry.

(Editor's note: I've seen too many players rage-quit over missed logins—set reminders.)

Tips for Maximizing Rewards

Blitz Phase 1 before Jan 26 hits. Co-op Immortal Combat. Trial chars in Drills. Nail 1500 Fever: 800 Combat + 270 Drills + 240 Envelope.

Ever wonder why co-op crushes solo scores? Shared strats.
