Okay, so I was trying to figure out this “waterfall soup shadow” thing in Zenless Zone Zero. I’d seen some chatter online about it, and honestly, I was totally lost at first. It sounded like some kind of hidden recipe or secret technique, and I was determined to get to the bottom of it.
First, I jumped into the game and just started messing around. I figured the best way to learn was by doing, right? I spent a good hour just wandering around, checking every nook and cranny, talking to every character I could find. No dice. Nothing seemed to trigger anything related to waterfall soup or shadows.
Then, I hit the forums and online guides. This is where things got a little murky. Some people were talking about a specific location near a waterfall (duh!), but the details were super vague. Others mentioned needing a certain character or a specific time of day. It was all a bit of a jumble.
I decided to focus on the waterfall clue first. I remembered seeing a pretty prominent waterfall in one of the early areas, so I headed back there. I spent what felt like forever searching around the base of the waterfall, looking for anything that looked interactable – a hidden cave, a suspicious rock, anything!
The “A-Ha!” Moment
After a lot of trial and error( and some frustration), I finally figured it out. I needed to play at night!
- First, I had to change the time of day to night.
- Then, go to the area of the waterfall.
- Look for a special visual effect – a kind of shimmering, shadowy reflection in the water. It’s subtle, so you really have to pay attention.
- The “shadow” part, I finally realized, wasn’t a literal shadow, but more like a visual distortion in the water, almost like a heat haze, but… watery.
I interacted with that shimmer, and boom! I finally got the “waterfall soup shadow” whatever-it-is. I won’t spoil what it actually is, but let’s just say it was worth the effort. It’s definitely one of those things that’s easy to miss if you’re not looking for it specifically.
So yeah, that’s my story of conquering the waterfall soup shadow. It took some time, some patience, and a whole lot of running around, but I got there in the end. My advice? Keep your eyes peeled, don’t be afraid to experiment, and don’t give up!
