Genshin Impact guide to using the Memento Lens and unlocking the underwater Teleport Waypoint

The Memento Lens gadget is crucial for discovering the underwater Teleport Waypoint in Genshin Impact.

Players can only get the Memento Lens gadget if they progress through the Sacrificial Offering quest. This World Quest becomes available after completing the previous quest, A Strange Story in Konda. Sacrificial Offering is only the second of five quests for the Sacred Sakura Cleansing questline, so Genshin Impact players don't have to play too much to get the Memento Lens.

Plenty of Genshin impact players don't know how to access this Teleport Waypoint. When approaching it from above ground, it's nowhere to be seen. That's simply because this Teleport Waypoint is underwater. It seems a bit convoluted to find it, and that's where a guide like this can help.

To start Sacrificial Offering, players need to go to the location shown above (after completing A Strange Story in Konda). Once there, Paimon will talk, letting the player know that they're in the correct spot.

After a brief conversation with Paimon, the player will be instructed to investigate the abandoned shrine.

Collect the loot left behind from the three treasure chests shown above. Then, interact with the strange, yellow glowing item to get some more lore. Genshin Impact players will need to head to the Grand Narukami Shrine to acquire the Memento Lens.

Note: Memento Lens is needed to unlock the Teleport Waypoint.

Genshin Impact players should receive the Memento Lens after talking to Inagi Hotomi, as shown above. It's a four-star gadget and needs to be equipped to be used for the rest of the quest (and for finding the underwater Teleport Waypoint).

Finding the underwater Teleport Waypoint

Head to the giant well in Araumi (Image via Sportskeeda)

There are some puzzles around Araumi that the player may wish to do here. The puzzles are detailed here for their convenience.

The cube puzzle near this area can be solved in the following order:

Top Left
Top Middle
Top Middle
Top Left

Aside from that, head to the location shown above. Make sure to have the Memento Lens equipped. The Teleport Waypoint is a good way away from here.

Use the Memento Lens on all of the kitsune statues in this well. Afterward, interact with the cube indents on the wall. It should say "Start." This is the only time Genshin Impact players need Memento Lens.

Now that the players are down here, they should head west where more rotating cubes lie.

Hit the top right

Then head down, make a left along the longer, watery corridor.

Hit the middle block twice. That's it. The water should be drained here.

Go down the stairs, and make a sharp right. Go through the door shown in the picture above. There should be a circular door to the right. Enter and go down the hall to find the coveted Teleport Waypoint in Genshin Impact.

Open this door and head down the hallway. There are some Ruin Sentinels around here, but most Genshin Impact players should be able to dispatch them easily. The Teleport Waypoint is down the hall.

As most Genshin Impact players can see, they don't need to finish the Sacrificial Offering quest to unlock the underwater Teleport Waypoint.

That's it. Genshin Impact players should now have access to the Teleport Waypoint that's seemingly underwater, partially thanks to Memento Lens.
