Ellin, the Wannabe Knight is a repeatable Daily Commission that occurs in Mondstadt, Mondstadt.
Steps[]
- Talk to Ellin
- Destroy all the training dummies in under 2 seconds
- Report back to Ellin
Gameplay Notes[]
- This Commission can occur as follow-up to the Mondstadt Commission The Limitations of an Adventurer. If Herman received a broken dummy during it the previous day, Ellin will reference it and her dummy will be the makeshift repaired one.
- This quest can come in four forms:
- 5 dummies in a line.
- 5 dummies in a large semi-circle, with a brazier in the middle.
- 5 dummies in a smaller semi-circle
- 6 dummies split into two groups.
- The two-second counter does not start until a dummy is completely destroyed.
- Possible solutions:
- (In the semi-circle layout with a brazier) First light a fire in the brazier with Pyro, then attack it with Anemo or Electro to cause Swirl or Overloaded that will hit all wooden dummies.
- (In the semi-circle layout without a brazier) Use an attack with large AoE.
- (In the line layout or the layout with two groups) Use Amber's Baron Bunny to create a delayed explosion on one side and attack the other group with a character.
Rewards[]
The different versions of this Commission grant different AR-dependent rewards. The versions with 5 training dummies in a line or 2 groups of dummies grant full rewards:
The two versions with semicircle layouts grant reduced rewards:
Dialogue[]

Ellin is working hard to become a knight, but her training doesn't seem to work out. She seems to need some guidance...
- (Talk to Ellin)
- Ellin: Ugh, what a headache... What am I supposed to do about this?
What are you up to?
- Ellin: Practicing for the Knights of Favonius' tryouts!
- Ellin: *sigh* But I'm nowhere near as powerful as Jean.
- Ellin: I think it's better for me to focus on technique rather than power.
- Ellin: For example, I was thinking about how to break all these wooden dummies in one fell swoop...
- (If the player retrieved an Intact Training Dummy during "The Limitations of an Adventurer")
- Ellin: They're a lot more robust than they look, this is no trivial task... I don't know where my father managed to get them from, but he must have gone to a lot of effort.
- (If the player retrieved Materials for Training Dummy instead)
- Ellin: I know they don't look that robust, but they're what I've got. My father went to a lot of trouble to get them for me, so I shouldn't complain.
- (Neither line will play if the player did not complete "The Limitations of an Adventurer" on the previous day.)
- Ellin: If you're at a loose end, fancy helping me think about how to tackle it?
I'll mull it over.
- Ellin: Sure, take your time. It's not like these dummies are going anywhere.
- Ellin: Nor is my life going anywhere while I'm stuck trying to sort this out, ugh...
How about we give it a go together...
- Ellin: You like team combat, then? Alright for some... always someone to help you out.
- Ellin: For people like me, the best I can do is try and hold my own as a lone fighter.
- After either choice, Ellin gives a tip based on the training dummy layout:
- (In the line layout or the layout with two groups)
- Ellin: At this distance, maybe the best solution would be for me to deal with one side and drop a bomb to deal with the other side.
- Ellin: Haha, just kidding. I have no idea where I would even get a bomb from anyway.
- (In the semi-circle layout with a brazier)
- Ellin: I've heard that the elements interact in special ways. I wonder if there's a way we can use the fire on this brazier to cause a little explosion...
- Ellin: But first there needs to actually be a fire in the brazier...
- (In the semi-circle layout without a brazier)
- Ellin: If only I had a bigger weapon, or some powerful elemental ability like Jean, breaking all these wooden dummies would probably be a piece of cake.
- (Talk to Ellin again)
- Ellin: How are you getting along? Had a eureka moment yet?
Still thinking it over...
- Ellin: Huh. I've met a few other adventurers before. They were the same way.
- Ellin: They fight monsters like pros, but they're hopelessly lost when it comes to trying to break a few wooden sticks.
- Ellin: And they reinforce the wood like it's for building a storm shelter or something... Way overestimating their own strength.
- Ellin: If they want a challenge so desperately, why don't they just go off into the wilderness and pick a fight with the biggest monster they can find?
- (Dummies spawn)
- Ellin: How can I smash all these training dummies at once?
- (If you fail to defeat them all within 2 seconds)
- (Dummies respawn)
Ellin: Shame, didn't manage to smash them all in time. Well, if at first you don't succeed...
- (Upon successfully defeating them)
- Ellin: Huh, so THAT's how you do it. I'm impressed!
- (Talk to Ellin)
- Ellin: Nailed it!
- Ellin: Huh, I never even thought of trying that...
- Ellin: Thanks! I'm gonna try it myself now.
- (If the player destroys the dummy next to Ellin, then talks to her after completing the commission)
- Ellin: HEY! What are you DOING!? My dad gave that to me to practice with!
- Ellin: If I don't make it through the Knights of Favonius tryouts, YOU will be the one to blame!
