Dancin’ in the Moonlight Genshin Impact

Dancin' in the Moonlight is a World Quest you'll encounter in Natlan for Version 5.2 of Genshin Impact. See where Magnifico's Photoshoot location in Dancin' in the Moonlight is, how to unlock it, and its walkthrough here in this guide!

How to Unlock Dancin’ in the Moonlight!

Go to Flower-Feather clan

Go to Flower-Feather clan Genshin Impact

Head to the Flower Feather clan, where you'll encounter a Hot-Air ballooon floating next to some wooden boards on the side of the cliff. The terrain is hard to navigate thus you could switch to a Qucusaurus to reach the location faster!

Dancin’ in the Moonlight! Walkthrough

Talk to the Child Lying on the Ground

Talk to the Child Lying on the Ground Genshin Impact

Talk to the child lying on the ground, who is severely parched. This should start the quest!

Turn into an Iktomisaurus

Turn into an Iktomisaurus Genshin Impact

Turn into an Iktomisaurus by interacting with the Spiritscone on the side.

Use the Iktomisaurus's Ability

Afterwards, you could use the Iktomisaurus ability on the blue graffiti. Immediately spawn a blue rock next to the child by holding E, and attack it to make it rain! This should give water to the parched child.

Go to the location of Magnifico's Photoshoot

Go to the location of Magnifico

There'll be a long cutscene right after. Once it's done, you can head to the location of the photoshoot which is indicated by the camera icon on your map! Teleport to the nearest waypoint, and once you arrive a cutscene will automatically play.

Complete the Lighting Setup for the Shoot

Once you arrive, another long cutscene will play! Enjoy the dialogue until you have to set up the lighting for the shoot!

How to Set up the Lighting for the Shoot

Lighting for the Shoot Guide
1 Turn into an Iktomisaurus near the Photoshoot Genshin Impact
Turn into an Iktomisaurus once more by interacting with the Spiritscone on the side!
2 Blue Graffiti Genshin Impact
Use the ability of the Iktomisaurus on one of the blue graffitis on the wall.
3
Hold E and place the brazier behind your Saurian.
4 Blue Graffiti Other Location Genshin Impact
Use the ability again on the other blue graffiti. Be sure to not absorb the same graffiti as it will not work!
5
This time, hold E and place the brazier on upper-left based on where your Saurian is facing.

After the last step, a cutscene will automatically play and the quest should be complete!
