If yous detect all viii Ancient Carvings in Dragonspine, Genshin Impact'south newest zone, you'll earn yourself a killer 4-star Claymore called Snow-tombed Starsilver. In that location's just i problem: Dragonspine is an enormous mount full of hidden caves and passages, so finding all viii Ancient Carvings will take a lot of fourth dimension and energy. That'southward where this guide comes in.

Below you'll find the location of every Ancient Carving and the secret door they unlock then you can get a blueprint of Snow-tombed Starsilver. From there, yous'll have to craft information technology (don't worry, that's covered too). And then catch a warm jacket and let's get exploring.

Genshin Impact: Ancient Etching locations

The 8 Ancient Carvings are constitute scattered throughout Dragonspine. To offset hunting them, all yous have to exercise is collaborate with one. That will illuminate a glyph in the secret room where the Snow-tombed Starsilver design is located. Once all eight glyphs are lit by interacting with each stone, you'll be able to go past the locked door and become your prize.

This room is located almost straight below the Statue of the 7 in Dragonspine. Hither's its location on a map. The second image is a close-up of the Aboriginal Etching then you lot know what to look for.

This room luckily contains the kickoff Aboriginal Carving. The rest will be challenging to locate, but fortunately redditor 'TriNity696' has shared a map with all of the locations helpfully marked:

About of the Aboriginal Carvings are unproblematic to find, simply i is specially challenging because it is locked behind some other undercover door that requires iii boxes to unlock. Like the Aboriginal Carvings, these boxes are hidden around Dragonspine. Fortunately, information technology'll merely take a few minutes to get together them and YouTuber 'ON Game' has an excellent and succinct video showing the locations of each box and the cloak-and-dagger room containing one of the Aboriginal Carvings.

Finally, if you lot're struggling to locate the Ancient Carvings using the map alone, here'south another video showing the location of each one and then you tin can follow along step-by-step.

Reward: Snow-tombed Starsilver

Once yous've interacted with all 8 Ancient Carvings, head back to the door beneath the Statue of the Vii and you'll be able to interact with the cube-shaped device in front of it to unlock it. Inside, you'll find a chest with a Memory of the Entombed City. Open your inventory and go to your Precious Items tab where you tin can apply Retention of the Entombed City to acquire the recipe to craft Snow-tombed Starsilver at a blacksmith.

Snow-tombed Starsilver requires 50 Crystal Chunks and 50 Starsilver (the new ore found all over Dragonspine) to craft.

Before y'all leave, though, this room has 4 torches in each corner. Light them all to unlock a 2nd chest with another four-star claymore. Nice!
