Players may find the Cuju quest in Where Winds Meet confusing if they think it will be completed in a single try. One might think that they’ve completed this quest when it seems like there’s nothing else to do, but there is actually an additional task that goes unnoticed until later in the game’s story. This guide will show you where to start the quest, explains why you won’t be able to finish the quest immediately, and helps you properly finish the Cuju minigame.
How to Begin the Quest
To initiate the Cuju quest simply go to the designated area for the objective. Once there, you will see multiple NPC’s gathered together bouncing a ball in repetition, which is an indication that you are at the right spot. You will need to approach one of the NPC’s and interact with them to begin the activity.
When interacting with the NPC, players will have an opportunity to participate in a brief skill based minigame. Accepting this challenge begins the Cuju sequence. Players who complete the minigame once will receive a ranking for their performance and rewards. However, even though this has been successfully accomplished, the quest is not yet complete.
The hint for the quest will stay the same after beating it the first time around, which means that the quest is still going on and that the players are still in the process of impressing others. The hint demonstrates that this quest requires at least two attempts. You will have to return to the same NPC and accept the new challenge/minigame again.
Understanding the Timing Mechanics
The early juggling section is simple and doesn’t require much precision. The more demanding part comes later during the rainbow trick.
While the button should be pressed once the inner circular ring aligns perfectly with the outer circular ring, pressing the button too soon or too late can cause an error. With each passing sequence, the rate at which the rings are moving increases, thus maintaining a consistent timing is important throughout all sequences.
Finishing the Cuju Quest
On completing the minigame a second time, the quest finally progresses. While earning a perfect score doesn’t seem to unlock any extra rewards or achievements, replaying the minigame is required. Once finished, the NPCs acknowledge your effort and grant three wishes. At this point, the Cuju quest is officially marked as complete.
