For newcomers to the game, frequent utilization of Elemental Sight is to be expected. To assist in this regard, our guide offers a comprehensive explanation of how to effectively employ Elemental Sight within Genshin Impact, whether you’re using a mouse, a controller, or a touchscreen mobile device.

What is Elemental Sight in Genshin Impact?

Genshin Impact is an extensive Action Role-Playing Game (ARPG) featuring diverse maps, characters, and interactive objects that facilitate exploration and progression.

Among its exploration tools is the Elemental Sight, a gameplay mechanic rooted in Genshin’s lore, accessible only to those possessing a vision. Interestingly, the protagonist, Aether/Lumine, can wield elemental powers without relying on a vision.

This exceptional trait allows them to employ Elemental Sight effortlessly. As previously mentioned, Elemental Sight can detect traces of elemental energies within the game, serving various purposes such as questing and other gameplay mechanics.

How to Use Elemental Sight Using a Mouse or Trackpad?

To use Elemental Sight in Genshin Impact using a mouse or trackpad, press and hold the middle mouse button until a distinct sound is heard, and your surroundings and your character take on a grayish hue with an excellent visual effect.

It’s important to note that Elemental Sight is limited to 3 seconds while moving. However, you can utilize it continuously while stationary without any restrictions. For those playing on a laptop with a trackpad, using a mouse is recommended to enhance your Genshin Impact experience.

If you are playing on a computer or your mouse’s middle click button is not functional, an alternative method involves pressing the left Alt key until the cursor becomes visible. Then, click the Elemental Sight icon in the screen’s upper left corner adjacent to the mini-map.

How to Use Elemental Sight on PlayStation Using a Controller?

If you’re gaming on PlayStation with a controller, to trigger Elemental Sight, you need to press and hold the LB button and simultaneously press the left button on your D-pad.

This activation process remains consistent across all types of controllers. It’s worth noting that Genshin Impact made its debut on the PS5 in April 2022. Regrettably, the button configuration cannot be changed or personalized.

However, if your controller permits macro setups through software, you can create a macro that combines holding the LB button and pressing the left D-pad button. This macro can then be assigned to an available button on your controller.

How to Use Elemental Sight in Genshin Impact on Android or iOS Devices?

Tap the eye icon next to the mini-map to utilize Elemental Sight in Genshin Impact on Android or iOS devices. Similar to the PC and PlayStation versions, the Android and iOS editions of the game also impose a three-second duration for Elemental Sight. At the same time, the character is in motion and can be used indefinitely while the surface is stationary.
