Mini Seelies in Genshin Impact: Your Adorable Floating Companions – Explained!
Have you seen those cute, tiny floating spirits in Genshin Impact? Those are Mini Seelies. If you want to know what they are and how to get one, you’re in the right place. Let’s explore Mini Seelies and discover everything about these charming companions.
What Exactly Are Mini Seelies?
Mini Seelies are a cosmetic flex in Genshin Impact. They are floating pets that happily follow your characters. Think of them as tiny spirit animals without the animal part. They shine with vibrant colors and resemble larger Seelies you guide back during your Teyvat adventures.
Unlike their larger cousins, Mini Seelies focus on aesthetics. They add color and charm to your exploration. They are a necessary fashion accessory for any serious Traveler.
Can You Still Get a Mini Seelie? The Availability Question
The big question is: can you still get a Mini Seelie if you missed the event? Here’s the deal. Mini Seelies are usually offered during special events, especially the “Lost Riches” event. These events are Mihoyo’s way of rewarding us, and Mini Seelies often play a starring role.
If you missed the Lost Riches event, obtaining a Mini Seelie directly in gameplay is currently impossible. Look out for future Lost Riches events, as Mihoyo may reintroduce them or offer new ways to grab these delightful companions. Patience, Traveler.
Snagging Your Own Mini Seelie: The How-To Guide
So, how do you get a Mini Seelie during the live event? Participating in the Lost Riches event is essential. You’ll usually find an event shop where you can trade event-specific currency (like Iron Coins) for your Mini Seelie choice. It’s similar to a pet store, but instead of a Paimon, you’re getting a Seelie.
Watch the event details when “Lost Riches” or similar events occur. Follow the quests, gather the currency, and head to the event shop to claim your Mini Seelie. It’s that simple, right?
How Many Mini Seelies Can You Collect? Quality over Quantity
Planning to gather a Seelie army? Wait! Each Mini Seelie is designed for one-time acquisition. Mass-producing these spirits is not possible. If you want to collect them all, you must participate in events that offer various colored Seelies and choose wisely each time.
You can’t have many of the same color, but you can collect different colors offered in different events. Variety is key. One of each color makes for a more fashionable entourage anyway.
Mini Seelie Functionality: Beyond the Cuteness Factor
Let’s face it, Mini Seelies are mostly about the looks. They float, they glow, and they are cute. But do they have practical purpose? Not really. They won’t help you take down a Ruin Guard or solve puzzles. They are cosmetic companions.
Though not functional gadgets, Mini Seelies are commemorative items. They show you participated in the Lost Riches event. They don’t take up gadget slots. You just toggle them ‘on’ in your inventory, and they float beside you while you use your NRE or Treasure Com. Fashion and function combined, sort of.
Finding Wild Seelies: The Classic Treasure Hunt
Now, let’s discuss their wild cousins – regular Seelies scattered around Teyvat. These are vital for exploration and rewards. You’ll often find a Seelie hovering near treasure chests, puzzles, or points of interest. They guide you to loot.
Seelies can be easy to find or cleverly concealed. Sometimes you need to break rocks or solve puzzles to reveal them. Once you guide a Seelie back to its Court (that stone pedestal), a treasure chest appears. It’s like finding a lost puppy, but instead of kisses, you receive sweet loot.
Do Seelies Ever Reset? Patience is Key
Ever started guiding a Seelie and got distracted by an ore deposit? We’ve all done that. If you wander too far or take too long, Seelies return to their starting points. They have patience limits. Commit to guiding a Seelie on the journey! Or else you’re back at square one.
Following a Seelie: A Traveler’s Guide to Trail Following
Following a Seelie is usually easy. They move at a leisurely pace, allowing you to keep up. Stick close, and they will lead you to their court. Sometimes they take winding paths to showcase scenery or for fun. Stick with them, and treasure awaits.
Seelies and Exploration Progress: Every Little Bit Counts
Here’s a fun fact: Seelies contribute to your exploration percentage! Each chest you unlock, including those won by guiding Seelies, boosts that exploration meter. So, those blue spirits aren’t just cute; they help achieve 100% completion in each region. Think of them as tiny completion points.
Ignoring Seelies means leaving chests unopened and exploration unfinished. That won’t do, right? Completionists should rejoice! Seelies are allies.
Treasure-Seeking Seelie: Ulman’s Gift for the Lost Riches Event
During the Lost Riches event, you might find a gadget called the Treasure-Seeking Seelie. This isn’t a Mini Seelie pet but a tool to help you find Iron Coins, the event currency. Usually, Ulman, the NPC, gives it early in the Lost Riches questline.
This Treasure-Seeking Seelie is your ally for locating treasures during the event. Follow its lead and you’ll gather Iron Coins quickly. , this gadget is event-specific, unrelated to finding regular Seelies in the open world.
Treasure Com vs. Seelies: Different Tools for Different Treasures
Want to use your Treasure Com to locate Seelies? Nice try, but that won’t work. Treasure Comes find chests, not Seelies. They won’t detect those hovering spirits. Your best bet for hunting Seelies is exploration, keen eyes, and luck. For chests, use the com; for Seelies, it’s all you.
Ulman’s Fontaine Location: Your Guide to Lost Riches
If you’re ing a Lost Riches event, Ulman is the NPC to find. In Fontaine, he sets up shop and gives you a Treasure Book. This book marks daily treasure spots, providing you with a treasure map to follow. Ulman is your guide for Lost Riches, so visit him when the event is live.
No Seelies in Natlan? Meet the Monetoos
Venturing into Natlan and wondering about the absence of Seelies? They are on vacation or dragon food, according to rumors! Natlan, home of pyro and dragons, has replaced Seelies with Monetoos.
Monetoos serve the same purpose as Seelies by guiding you to treasure and exploration rewards. You can use elemental sight to locate their general direction like with Seelies. So while Natlan lacks Seelies, it has floating spirits to guide you. Monetoos are Natlan’s helpful spirits.
That’s it! The full scoop on Mini Seelies and their wild cousins. Whether collecting for flair or following for treasure, Seelies are crucial and adorable parts of Genshin Impact’s charm and exploration. Happy Seelie hunting!
