Alcor
Last updated 2026-05-01
The Alcor is a point of interest located in Sea of Clouds, Liyue.
It is the flagship of The Crux and, while it is normally helmed by Captain Beidou, she has returned to Liyue Harbor for business and left the ship to her men. It can be found anchored just off of Guyun Stone Forest.
Climbing aboard the Alcor for the first time automatically triggers the World Quest A Lone Ship In Guyun. After visiting the Alcor for the first time, the map icon will appear, which acts as a permanent Teleport Waypoint.

Trivia
- The name "Alcor" is derived from a star by the same name, which is one of the two stars that make up the handle of the Big Dipper constellation, tying into Beidou's name being the Chinese name for the Big Dipper.
- During Life on the High Seas in Hangout Event: Beidou: Act I - When the Crux Shines Bright, Beidou mentions that the Alcor is considered an omen of death. In Japanese mythology, the Alcor is known as the lifespan star, or 寿命星 jumyouboshi, as it was believed that one who could not see this star would pass away by year's end.[1] The Chinese name, 死兆星, means death omen.
- The name 死兆星 may also be a reference to the star with the same name, 死兆星 Shichōsei, in the series Fist of the North Star. In Chinese, Alcor doesn't have its own name, instead it will be called 開陽增一 Kāiyáng zēng yī which means 'Mizar's companion star'.
