In the volcanic heart of Natlan, where whispers of ancient dragons still echo through Tequemecan Valley, a legendary artifact pulses with untold power—the Yellow Obsidian Ring. Forget your average Primogem haul; this fiery circlet holds the key to breaching the impenetrable Obsidian Barrier, a challenge that’s got Travelers sweating more than a Pyro Slime in a sauna! Introduced in Genshin Impact’s earth-shattering Version 5.0, the Children of Echoes guard this secret fiercely, hiding its fragments in their most treacherous chests. Talk about a grind!
🔥 The Fragmented Power: Yellow Obsidian Mechanics
Normally, cracking open a Precious or Luxurious chest nets you Primogems 💎 and maybe some decent Artifacts. But in the Children of Echoes' domain? Cha-ching! You might just score a Yellow Obsidian Fragment. You need THREE of these bad boys. And here’s the kicker—it’s totally random. RNGesus might bless you early, or you might be opening every single chest in the valley like a desperate treasure goblin. Holy moly!

⚒️ Crafting Destiny: Forging the Ring
Once you’ve sweated through the RNG nightmare and clutched those three shimmering fragments, the real magic begins. No need for a fancy blacksmith!

This ain’t just bling—it’s your VIP pass to secrets buried deeper than an Archon’s regrets.
