Challenges and gameplay rewards in Genshin Impact 2.1 “Lunar Realm” fishing event

In the “Lunar Realm” event, Genshin Impact players will participate in a total of seven fishing missions, along with a “special fishing training” over the first seven days.

Only one quest will unlock per day, and the missions will take place at different times and locations, keeping users on their toes. Moreover, they must use a suitable fishing rod and bait at the corresponding site to complete each mission.

However, only a maximum of 50 fish can be caught in the training pool per day, and miHoYo implements a special rule in order to protect the fishing ecosystem of Teyvat.
