If players follow the available questline, the first Cascade Pool they find is likely the one at the Tanit camp. However, compared to the ones people will find in the desert, the Cascade Pool at the Tanit camp is terribly simple, as it only has one pool to fill. To understand how to solve the more complicated Cascade Pool puzzles in Genshin Impact, this article will explain how the sand mechanism works.

How To Solve The Cascade Pool Puzzle In Genshin Impact

To solve the Cascade Pool puzzle in Genshin Impact, players must activate and deactivate the correct pipes until all the pools are filled. Players can see if the pool is full once the gray line turns to gold.

As for the pipes, gray means it’s deactivated while blue means activated. Switching to Bow users in Genshin Impact will make the puzzle far easier to complete.

A common mistake that Travelers may make is leaving all the pipes activated. That’s because the sand will flow endlessly into the following pool and won’t stay to fill it unless players deactivate the pipes.

The Cascade Pool puzzle is one of the most common puzzles players will find across Genshin Impact 3.4 desert. The puzzle will come in different sizes; sometimes it’s a simple one where there’s only one pool to fill, while some other times, there can be more than five pools to activate.

No matter what size the Cascade Pool puzzle is, the concept of the mechanism stays the same, so don’t worry too much when seeing a large version of the puzzle.

As the Cascade Pool puzzles are commonly simple, most of them only reward a Common Chest. However, there are some cases where players get a higher-tier chest for their effort.

Genshin Impact 3.4 Is Another Update To The Desert

As an expansion to the desert area, Genshin Impact 3.4 has new sand-themed puzzles. Like the Cascade Pool where people need to activate the sand mechanism and fill the pool below, players will also find other new puzzles like the sand-pumping machines.

Originally, these sand pumps were used to flow water in different places. However, as catastrophe falls upon the land, the once-glorious system is now reduced to a ruin that only transport sands.

Ironically, this catastrophe appears to be a product of love. She whose love was betrayed chooses to teach her lover a lesson by ruining his and his generation’s reign.

The mastermind of this catastrophe is now pursued by the desert people as she’s believed to be the key to finding the Eternal Oasis. Alas, as the A Moment Congealed artifact already stated, the Eternal Oasis is none but an immortal lie.

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