Journey to Tsurumi Tips & Strategies

Going to Tsurumi Island

How to Get to Tsurumi Island
Clear the Fog by doing the Through the Mists questline Teleport to the southern Waypoint Cruise around the Island with the Waverider

Recommended to Clear the Fog First

Because the quest will need you to go to the farthest area in Tsurumi Island, it is recommended to clear the fog first by doing the Through the Mists quest line. This is also in preparation for the later stages of the event.

Note that this questline can take days to finish, as the quests in this questline are time-locked between days.

Through the Mists Quest Guides

Teleport to the Waypoint

If you have already unlocked this Teleport Waypoint south of Tsurumi Island, simply go to this location and then drop down to the Strange Ruin Grader's location.

Ride Around the Island with the Waverider

You can also use the Waverider to go around Tsurumi Island and land on the southern beaches. A Waverider Waypoint can be found on the Statue of the Seven location east of Tsurumi Island.

Defeat the Strange Ruin Grader

You will not be able to defeat the Strange Ruin Grader as it will regenerate. However, you will still need to lower its HP to force it to go to its regenerative state and continue the quest.

Make sure to take out the weakpoints on its legs and eye to immobilize it. As it is also level 90, bring out your best DPS to easily defeat it.

Ruin Grader Recommended F2P Team

Main/Sub/ Support	Sub-DPS	Main DPS/ Sub-DPS	Sub-DPS/ Support
Kaeya	Xiangling	Amber	Barbara

Use Freeze with Kaeya and Barbara to stop it from moving, especially when it is doing the devastating spinning attacks. Use Amber's ranged attacks to hit the eye, and melee attacks with Kaeya and Xiangling to hit the weakpoints on its legs.

When it is down, use Kaeya and Xiangling's burst to Melt down the Ruin Grader until it regenerates.
