How To Start & Complete The Lunar Awakening Event Questline In Diablo 4

Location of the quest NPC for Lunar Awakening in Ked Bardu

The Lunar Awakening questline features an automatically assigned Purple Quest marker, allowing players to easily track their progress in their journal. This is particularly useful for those prioritizing this specific event.

Where To Start The Lunar Awakening Event Questline

The questline initiates in the north-western corner of Ked Bardu. To commence the event, players must engage with an NPC named Ying-Yue.

How To Complete The Lunar Awakening Event Questline

To progress in the event questline and unlock various reward tiers, players must collect Ancestor’s Favor. Favor can be gained by defeating enemies while active Lunar Shrines are in effect, which are identifiable by a purple star icon on the mini-map and take the form of traditional Lunar Cycle Animals.

Typically, activating a shrine will function as intended, enabling players to navigate and combat enemies freely. Notably, some Lunar Shrines trigger unique events when engaged, akin to the Cursed Shrine Event. For players seeking rewards and additional Lunar Favor, it’s crucial to eliminate three Miserly Spirit Elite Enemies within a specified time frame.

Additionally, Lunar Awakening Shrines can lead to spontaneous Helltide and Headhunt encounters, granting players the opportunity to harvest multiple resource types simultaneously.

Lunar Awakening Event Questline Bugs

Currently, players are encountering a visual glitch related to the event questline. After speaking with Ying-Yue to initiate the event, the quest may incorrectly appear as incomplete upon exiting Ked Bardu. Fortunately, this visual bug does not hinder the ability to earn Ancestor’s Favor, allowing players to continue enjoying the event despite the inconsistency.
