One of the newest events in Genshin Impact 2.6 is the Vibro-Crystal Research event. In this guide, we’ll be sharing with you how to unlock the Vibro-Crystal Research event, how to play it, and what rewards you’ll get.
Help a researcher from Fontaine in the Vibro-Crystal Research event
The event began last April 21, 2022, and will finish on May 5, 2022. In this event, Travelers are tasked to help a researcher from Fontaine who is conducting experiments near The Chasm. Moreover, you’ll have to make use of Vibro-Crystals to defeat mobs of enemies.
Unlock requirements
- Must be Adventure Rank 28+
- Complete the “Rite of Parting” sub-quest (Chapter 1:Act 3 Archon Quest)
How to unlock
If you haven’t completed Chapter 1: Act 3 Archon Quest, you need to finish that first. For a refresher, it’s the Archon Quest before Travelers can gain access to Inazuma. It is also the quest where we deal with Osial and save Liyue from being destroyed by the Fatui.
But if you already finished this Archon Quest, you can immediately begin the quest to unlock this event. Talk to Katheryne in Liyue and go to where Patrice is hanging around near The Chasm. Afterward, you can start taking on his challenges.
Unlock dates for each stage in Vibro-Crystal Research
Similar to previous events where you need to fight mobs, the Vibro-Crystal Research event has an unlock schedule. Moreover, there are six stages in total with the last stage unlocking on April 26, 2022.

| Stimulating Deduction | April 23, 2022 |

How to play Vibro-Crystal Research
Pick a stage and set the difficulty
Choose which stage and difficulty you want to play on. If you’ve played similar events before, a higher difficulty gives you more points because of the multiplier. Moreover, each stage features different types of enemies. So be sure to set up the right teams for each stage.
Make use of the trial characters
There are trial characters included in the event. Moreover, you can use them either one by one or as a four-man team to quickly power through the event. Some trial characters are Kamisato Ayato, Raiden Shogun, Venti, and Yoimiya.
Use a good vibro-crystal setup for each stage
By using Transmitter and Receiver Vibro-Crystals, your team can receive much-needed buffs for each stage. However, you need to configure them manually and check which setup is the most effective for each stage.
Moreover, you need to accumulate harmonic points while fighting against enemies. After your harmonic points increase throughout a stage, it gives you a CRIT DMG boost. But keep in mind that the character who triggers the transmitter is the only one who receives the buff.
Tips to complete the Vibro-Crystal Research event
Use crowd control characters
Because you need to defeat mobs of enemies under a time limit, it’s recommended you have a crowd control character on each team. For this, we recommend using Anemo characters like Kazuha, Venti, Traveler (Anemo), and Sucrose.
Include characters great at AoE and fighting multiple enemies at once
Aside from using crowd control characters, we highly suggest using AoE and multiple target characters. If you want to quickly deal with the mobs you’ll face off, pair your crowd control characters with powerful DPS ones. Moreover, you can include multiple DPS characters in your team.
| CHARACTER | ELEMENT | ROLE |
| Xiao | Anemo | Multiple Target DPS |
| Childe | Hydro | |
| Ayaka | Cryo | |
| Ayato | ||
| Off-field DMG DPS | ||
| Raiden Shogun | Electro | |
| Yae Miko | ||
| Kazuha | Anemo | |
| Ganyu | Cryo | |
| Albedo | Geo | |
| Xiangling | Pyro |
Connect three transmitters to one receiver
For you to fully make use of the Vibro-Crystal Connections, connect all transmitters to only one receiver.
Adjust your transmitter/trigger based on who your DPS is
Another important thing to consider in the Vibro-Crystal Research event is the triggers. If you have multiple DPS characters on your team, select the third trigger. By selecting the third trigger, the buff you receive can be used by the whole team instead of just one receiving it.
