This guide aims to provide the player with a compact guide on the steps needed to summon Celestial Champion. This guide assumes that you will know how to prepare for and fight both Crab King and Celestial Champion.

Steps 1 and 2 can be carried out at the same time if you have another person helping you.

Getting Pearl's Pearl and the Pinchin' Winch

  1. Gather the materials needed for Pearl's Tasks.
  2. Make a boat and sail until you find a Message in a Bottle. Use it to reveal Pearl's Island on the map.
  3. Start completing Pearl's tasks to gain friendship points.
  4. After doing 1 task, trade an Empty Bottle with her for the Pinchin' Winch blueprint.
  5. When you've completed 10 tasks, she will give you the Pearl's Pearl, after which you can leave.

Getting the Astral Detector

  1. Go to the Ruins and craft both a Star Caller's Staff and a Deconstruction Staff.
  2. Place the Star Caller's staff into the Moon Stone during a full moon to convert it into a Moon Caller's Staff. This resets the durability, so try to use as much of the staff as often as possible before doing the event.
  3. Deconstruct the Moon Caller's staff to get a Iridescent Gem. Again, use as much of the staff as possible before deconstructing it.
  4. Find the Archives, and socket the Iridescent Gem to activate the Archives.
  5. Find and interact with the Blue Fountain of Knowledge to get the correct Distilled Knowledge. Think of this item like a locked blueprint.
  6. Unlock the Distilled Knowledge by placing it on the Ancient Orchestrina and solving the puzzle.
  7. Craft the Astral Detector with 1 Moon Stone and 1 Thulecite.

Finding the three Lunar Altars

Finding them in this order is recommended, as the Astral Detector prioritizes detecting in this order.

Sanctum

  1. Use the Astral Detector on the mainland to locate both parts of the Celestial Sanctum.
  2. Place both parts on a boat in preparation for traveling to the Lunar Islands.

Altar

  1. Use the Astral Detector to find an Inviting Formation, which will be on the Lunar Island.
  2. Mine all three Inviting Formations to get the three pieces of the Lunar Altar.

Tribute

  1. Find Crab King with the Astral Detector.
  2. Kill Crab King with Pearl's Pearl socketed. Then, use the Pinchin' Winch to get the Celestial Tribute.
  3. Put the Celestial Tribute on your boat, along with the Celestial Sanctum.

Assembling the altars

  • On the Lunar Island, assemble each altar over a Celestial Fissure. Note that the Celestial Fissures must be in a rough triangle.
  • If done correctly, the Mysterious Energy will appear within the triangle. Additionally, the Moonstorm will begin.

The Moonstorm

  1. Enter the Moonstorm.
  2. Find Wagstaff, who will give you the blueprint for the Lunar Siphonator. You'll also get a blueprint for the Astroggles, which are highly recommended for navigating the Moonstorm.

Lunar Siphonator

  • The Lunar Siphonator's only purpose is to be placed on the Mysterious Energy, and upgraded.
  • While the Lunar Siphonator has three upgrade stages, it's more efficient to get all the neccessary materials and then do all three stages at once.
Lunar Siphonator
Resource Obtained
1 Restrained Static Rewarded one after completing Moonstorm event.
8 Scrap Obtained by looting Junk Pile
15 Moongleams Caught with Bug Net during Moonstorm.
30 Moon Shards Mined during Moonstorm. These spoil fast, so use Bundling Wrap.
Celestial Orb Obtained by mining the Suspicious Boulder.
2 Electrical Doodad Crafted with 2 Gold and 1 Cut Stone.

After the Lunar Siphonator is fully upgraded, Celestial Champion will spawn. Good luck!
