Like in many other open world games, Genshin Impact features an exploration mechanic that highlights useful items and quest landmarks when activated. Unless you know exactly what you are looking for, it is a bit difficult to find in the user interface. Here’s how to use Elemental Sight if you’re having trouble.
How to use the basic view in Genshin Impact
You will use Elemental Sight in many different missions in the game, in particular, to illuminate elemental paths or when you need to locate items necessary to achieve various objectives.
To use Elemental Sight, simply press and hold the middle mouse button on the PC, while PlayStation gamers need to press L1 to open the hotkey, then press the left of the Dpad to access it. If you are using mobile devices, there should be a specific button on the user interface to press located at the top left of your screen.
Once Elemental Sight is activated, your character will stop moving and the screen will go dark, while everything that is important to the mission you are undertaking will be highlighted in a vivid color. Obviously, it’s easy to keep switching between moving around and using the feature on console and PC, but it can get a bit awkward on mobile devices as you have to press that specific button every time. Unfortunately, there is no way to change the key combination.
And that’s all you need to know how to use Elemental Sight in Genshin Impact. For more helpful tips and guides on the game, be sure to check out the dlprivateserver Wiki Guide.
