The bottom level of the Ruin Guard is easy to activate, but the middle section is a bit tricky. If players are struggling, this guide will explain how to connect all four Relays in the middle in Genshin Impact.

How To Connect All Four Relays In The Middle In Genshin Impact

In this puzzle, there are four Power Relays. Three of them are locked behind gates that only open when the mechanism in front of them is activated. Placing energy blocks activates the mechanisms, but the tricky part here is that each one of these mechanisms requires a different number of energy blocks. They need:

One energy block Two energy blocks Three energy blocks

This may complicate solving this Genshin Impact puzzle, but with the right planning, it can work out just fine.

First, start from the open Relay and Draw the energy block from it to turn it off. Go to the right to the sealed gate and place the energy block inside the mechanism. This will open the door to another Relay. Draw the second energy block from it and from the mechanism.

Now that players have two energy blocks at their disposal, find the mechanism that needs two energy blocks and repeat the same steps. Place them in the mechanism, open the gate, and take the third energy block from the Relay inside.

Finally, now that the Genshin Impact Traveler has three energy blocks, they’re ready to open the last gate that requires three. Go to that mechanism and place all three energy blocks inside to open the gate. The fourth and last energy block is on the ground in front of the Relay. Pick it up and place it inside the Relay to activate it.

Players then must take back the three energy blocks inside the mechanism to close the gate and move back to the one that requires two energy blocks.

Repeating the same steps backward, place the energy blocks inside the mechanism, then place the extra energy block inside the Relay.

Take back the two energy blocks and move to the mechanism that needs one energy block to open its gate. Open it and place an energy block inside the Relay. Lastly, players must track back to the first Relay they took the first energy block from and place it back to activate all four Relays in Genshin Impact.

Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
