Daily Cap
The number of investigations a player can conduct in a day in the open world, is limited to 100. That is, after conducting 100 investigations, every investigation spot that the player gets close to, will not spawn. Investigation spots that already were in the player's vicinity when they reached the 100 limit, will not disappear (unless the player teleports away and then comes back). For example, if a player investigated 99 spots, and then entered an area with 30 investigation spots, the player will be able to take all 30, as long as they stay in that area.
The investigation points that may contain Mysterious Conch in the coast near Takashi do not count towards the daily cap, and will be available even after the player reached their daily cap.
Locations
Some Investigation spots can be found on the Teyvat Interactive Map.
