Genshin Impact drum score puzzle solutions, how to perform according to the drum score

How to perform the drum scores in the 'Awakening Real Sound' World Quest

You need to perform according to the drum score in Genshin Impact as part of the 'Awakening Real Sound' section of the 'Khvarena of Good and Evil' World Quest.

The task might seem hard to begin with, but once you know what the leaf symbols stand for in your score notes, they become far easier to complete - but you still need to time the performance correctly.

To help you progress in the 'Awakening Real Sound' quest, we've detailed the drum score puzzle solution in Genshin Impact for each drum below, as well as an explainer on how to perform according to the drum score.

How to perform according to the drum score in Genshin Impact

For each of the five elemental drums during the 'Awakening Real Sound' quest, you need to hit the drums in the correct sequence of attacks detailed in the Korybantes Score pages in your inventory.

The two most important things to keep in mind while solving the drum score puzzles are:

  • The leaves on the score pages represent what attack you need to do
  • You must only attack the drum when it flashes gold

Here's what attack you need to do for each drum symbol:

  • Full leaf - plunge attack
  • Half leaf - normal attack
  • Almost no leaf - don't attack
An example of how to perform a drum score.

Remember, these attacks (or non-attacks) must be performed in the correct order as represented in the Korybantes Score pages only when the drum flashes gold. If you don't perform the move at the right time, the challenge will fail.

Only hit the drum when it flashes gold like in this picture.

There's also no need to switch to a character of that drum's element. You can perform the attacks with a character of any element and it will still work.
