Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing is the new permanent Tales Quest added in Version 3.7 and becomes available after completing Chapter IV Act IV: Simulacrum of the Heart. The quest begins when a mysterious girl contacts Rover on WavesLine and asks for help collecting scattered Feeling Capsule Shards.
The most important unlock rule for Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing is the completed Main Quest, not a separate event timer. If the WavesLine message or Tales Quest marker is missing, finish Simulacrum of the Heart first, then return to the normal quest interface and check the new permanent Tales Quest entry again.
How to unlock Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing
- Complete Chapter IV Act IV: Simulacrum of the Heart.
- Check WavesLine for the mysterious girl’s request.
- Track the Tales Quest from the quest menu.
- Follow the Feeling Capsule Shard objectives shown by the live quest tracker.
- Finish the story sequence to claim the one-time Tales Quest rewards.
Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing is permanently available after Version 3.7, so a missing quest is not caused by the event ending. The usual cause is story eligibility. If you have only entered the Simulacrum Nexus but have not completed Act IV, the Tales Quest condition is still unmet.
What are Feeling Capsule Shards in Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing?
Feeling Capsule Shards are the objects at the centre of the Tales Quest request. Use the quest tracker rather than searching the entire Nexus without an objective, because the quest is designed to point Rover toward the relevant shard sequence as the story develops. The shard collection is narrative progression, not a new general currency used in shops or character upgrades.
That distinction matters when the inventory contains several 3.7 items with similar story names. Thousandfold Petals belong to Blooms for the Shadow, Bloom of Hearkening is Hsin’s local specialty, and Feeling Capsule Shards belong to this Tales Quest. They are separate progression systems even though all three arrive around the same Nexus update.
What story does Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing cover?
Kuro describes Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing as a new quest type and the Version 3.7 preview connects it with Xuanqing’s life and the wider emotional history around the Heart Realms. The shard request is the practical entry point, while the completed Act IV requirement ensures the Tales Quest happens after the main Nexus story rather than interrupting it.
Because the quest is fully voiced and permanent, there is no need to skip dialogue to beat an event deadline. If you are following the Xuanfang story, complete the Main Quest first and then treat Moonlike Heart, Mortal Longing as the character-focused follow-up.
What to do if Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing is not showing
- Confirm Act IV is fully complete, not merely started.
- Check WavesLine for the quest contact.
- Open the Tales Quest section and make sure another tracked quest is not hiding the marker.
- Leave and re-enter the area or relog after completing Act IV if the UI has not refreshed.
- Do not search for a limited-event start date, because the quest is permanent.
Rewards from Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing
The quest provides the normal one-time story rewards associated with a new Tales Quest, including Astrite and progression materials. Community launch reward counts place the quest at roughly 100 Astrite, but the live quest reward panel on your account should be treated as the final source if the displayed payout changes after a hotfix.
The useful reason to complete Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing is not only the currency. It closes the character-focused story thread unlocked after Simulacrum of the Heart and clears one of the new permanent 3.7 quest entries from the Journey Log. It also makes it easier to distinguish later exploration quests from the Tales Quest content.
Best order for Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing
Finish Simulacrum of the Heart first, then do Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing before or alongside the lighter Exploration Quests. That order preserves the story chronology and avoids searching for WavesLine triggers that are deliberately locked until Act IV is over.
Wuthering Waves Moonlike Heart Mortal Longing is therefore straightforward once the gate is understood: complete Act IV, respond to the WavesLine request, track the Feeling Capsule Shards through the quest interface and finish the permanent story at your own pace. If the quest is missing, solve the eligibility problem before looking for a hidden map trigger.
