Genshin Impact Theater Mechanicus (Day 3): Autumnal Resplendence guide

Theater Mechanicus recently released the third stage, 'Autumnal Resplendence,' in Genshin Impact's Hues of the Violet Garden event. The stage focuses on Tandem Mine, which will blow up once enemies get near it. However, with the right Wondrous Stick, players can upgrade the mine so it will self-repair every time it's destroyed.

The game decided to add Linebreaker enemies that can destroy any nearby Mechanici except Tandem Mines to make the new challenge harder. However, players can still use elemental Mechanici if they place them in the correct slots. This article will show players how to complete the Autumnal Resplendence stage in the Theater Mechanicus event.

Travelers will start the stage with fewer Veneficus Points than the previous difficulty. They need to use it correctly to avoid wasting it. Dismantle one Tandem Mine in the bottom right slot and add one Tandem Mine in the middle for the bottom lane.
