Tanks in Genshin Impact: how to find and get the Ancient Garden and Spring achievement

Reservoirs in Genshin impact empty containers to be filled with sand. The "pools" in question are associated with obtaining the secret achievement "Ancient garden and spring". However, in order for the achievement to replenish the collection, it is necessary to find all the bowls in the Hadramavet Desert.

In this guide, we will show you the location of all the tanks in Genshin Impact, as well as how to solve puzzles based on ancient mechanisms and sand streams.

How to solve tank puzzles

The principle of solving tank puzzles is as follows:

1. Several containers are placed on a wall or other flat surface (the minimum number is 1, the maximum is 5). Each of them is necessary fill with sand.
2. To do this, a crane is installed above the tank, which is the main mechanism in the puzzle. To activate it, you need to hit the "handle" with a long-range attack. For convenience, it is recommended put any archer in the squad.
3. Among other things, the tanks themselves have their own "handles". Activating them can help fill containers that are not reached by the stream flowing from the main mechanism.
4. If the faucet exudes blue glowmeans it is active.
5. If the center stripe of the tank is colored golden color, so the container is full.
