Head to the Akitsu Yuugei event area

The flagship event takes place on the right side of Chinju Forest and below the Kamisato Estate at the edge of Narukami Island! Once you head there, you'll see a large platform where you can play the Akitsu Yuugei.

If you interact with the signboard by the large stage, you can enter the Leisurely Pastime stages, and once you're done, head north to the Shatterdark domain!

Use the bouncing bar to rebound balls

In the Akitsu Yuugei, you can control a bouncing bar by moving around the board. This bouncing bar will be able to propel a ball forward to break bricks within the time limit!

Infuse elements into the bouncing bar

The bouncing bar's element will change depending on which character is currently using it. This will also inflict the element on the ball! Though, Dendro, Geo, and Anemo cannot be infused with the bouncing bar.

The bar can absorb an element, and the bricks also have their element. So, causing a skill ball of one element to hit bricks of different elements will trigger an elemental reaction.

Use buff modifiers to help you clear

Since a character's element can be inflicted on the bouncing bar, you need to consider a good party to use during the event. To make it even more fun, you can use Modifiers as a buff during the challenge. It seems you can have two to three modifier slots in the mini-game.

Defeat the Boss Brick Levels

There are also boss brick levels called the Shatterdark, where you'll need to defeat the boss by reducing its HP to zero while carefully maneuvering the ball against the block obstacles to hit it! There are three stages in total for Shatterdark!

Play in Co-Op Mode

You can play this event in Co-Op Mode to clear various stages with your friends. If you want more event buddies, check out our Co-Op Boards here:
