For adventurers traversing the vast deserts of Sumeru, the Garden of Endless Pillars presents a unique and rewarding challenge. Unlike standard Domains accessed through simple exploration, this one-time challenge requires solving a clever environmental puzzle to reveal its hidden entrance. Located in the Great Red Sand, west of the Dune of Carouses, the Domain promises valuable rewards for those who can decipher its secrets, including Primogems, Dendro Sigils, and precious Artifacts. However, upon arrival, players will find only ancient ruins—the Domain's door is completely buried and invisible.

Deciphering the Pyro Monument Conundrum
The key to unveiling the concealed portal lies in a set of Pyro Monuments scattered around the ruins. At first glance, the natural instinct might be to ignite them all, but this straightforward method yields no results. The true solution requires keen observation and understanding of a specific sequence. The environment itself holds the clues. Players must examine the peculiar flora, specifically the Flaming Flowers, growing near each monument. An invisible barrier prevents direct interaction with these plants, but their purpose is not to be touched—it's to be counted.
The Floral Sequence Solution
Each Pyro Monument, except one, has one or more Flaming Flowers adjacent to it. The number of flowers dictates the order in which the corresponding monument must be activated. Here is the step-by-step process based on the established method:
-
Locate the Monument with Zero Flowers: Begin by scanning the area for the sole totem that has no Flaming Flowers growing beside it. This monument, typically found at the southern end of the ruins, is the first in the ignition sequence.
-
Identify the Second Monument: Find the monument with a single Flaming Flower nearby. This is the second pillar to light.
-
Continue the Pattern: Proceed to light the monuments in ascending order based on the count of adjacent Flaming Flowers. The sequence is determined purely by this floral tally.
| Monument Order | Number of Adjacent Flaming Flowers | General Location Hint |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | 0 | Southern ruins area |
| 2nd | 1 | Often on the upper-right side |
| 3rd | 2 | Check surrounding higher ground |
| 4th | 3 | Usually among more clustered ruins |
Following this pattern will successfully solve the conundrum. Once the final monument in the sequence is ignited, the ground will rumble, and the entrance to the Garden of Endless Pillars Domain will rise from the sands, ready for exploration. :tada:
