How to Use Visions to find Starsplinter Iron Locations

Starsplinter Iron Locations

Starsplinter Iron Locations and Map
Inside a rundown building	At the top of a mountain
On a small opening on the mountain wall	Next to a tree by the mountains

Although only two Starsplinter Iron are needed to complete the objective, there are a total of 4 that can be found around the area. One can be found inside a shack by the road, another on top of the nearby mountain, and the other two can be found along the mountain wall.

Use Visions to find Starsplinter Iron

You can use your character's vision to help find the Starsplinter Iron. The vision will start to glow when you're near a Starsplinter Iron and will continue to grow even brighter as you get closer.

We recommend using a character that has their Vision at the back so the glow will be more noticable. Some recommended characters are Hu Tao, Gorou, Keqing, and Mona.

Archons and Travelers not recommended

Venti, Zhongli, and Raiden Shogun don't have Visions, so you won't get the glowing indicator when you use them. The same goes for the Traveler who also doesn't have a Vision.
