Pulsar Rays Event Guide (Spiritfarer)

Playing the Pulsar Rays Event in Spiritfarer

The Pulsar Rays are another one of the mid-game location-based events. This one will be introduced to you by Bruce & Mickey.

While playing this event, you’ll be able to collect Pulsar Ore – which is a metal resource used in making Pulsar Ingots at the Foundry.

This guide will go over everything you need to know about the event to help you complete it efficiently.

Unlocking the Minigame

First, you will need Bruce & Mickey aboard your ship.

Bruce & Mickey are the first spirits you’ll meet upon docking at Southpoint Docks, at (X: 157, Y: 22).

Note: To reach Southpoint Docks, you will need the Rock Destroyer boat improvement.

Upon talking to them, the duo will insist you bully another spirit. So head the other direction and approach the first spirit you’ll see.

Rather than bullying the spirit, Stella will just talk to them. Then head back to Bruce & Mickey.

Despite just talking, Bruce & Mikey will insist you “bullied” the spirit, and will then join Stella’s ship.

Once aboard the ship, the duo will introduce you to their first request “Rhythm of the Night,” which unlocks the Pulsar Rays event.

Since this is a location-based event, just head over to one of the locations marked with rays of light. Here are the coordinates for all three locations of the Pulsar Rays Event:

  • X: 156, Y: -15 (Oxbury Region)
  • X: 219, Y: -95 (Oxbury Region)
  • X: 239, Y: 87 (Crow’s End Region)

Upon arriving, simply talk to Bruce & Mickey to trigger the event (there will be no visual indication like other events.)

Minigame Details

Once the mini-game starts, a number of glowing lights will fly by in different directions, and you will need to hit them head-on.

Since the lights move quickly and often change directions, this can be a bit tricky.

Abilities like Bounce and Double Jump will significantly help your platforming in this event.

Each light you hit gets you a Pulsar Ore.

After Bruce & Mickey leave for the Everdoor, you can start the event by sailing to one of the locations and interacting with the door of the duo’s mansion.
