Chongyun is a compelling character within the world of Genshin Impact. This young exorcist is adept at wielding a claymore and harnessing the Cryo element. His innate yang energy simplifies the challenges of his vocation; however, its intense nature makes it difficult for him to encounter spirits, as they tend to flee at his presence.

In combat, Chongyun unleashes his Cryo abilities alongside his claymore to inflict formidable damage on adversaries. To enhance his effectiveness in battle, players should focus on his ascension and talent upgrades by gathering the requisite items and Mora detailed below.

Enemy Drop – Where to Find Damaged Mask, Stained Mask, Ominous Mask

hilichurl masks

Hilichurls, prevalent throughout Teyvat, are the primary source for masks required in Chongyun’s ascension. However, players need to be aware that certain levels of Hilichurls yield specific drops:

Enemy Level Possible Drops
Any Damaged Mask
40+ Stained Mask
60+ Ominous Mask

Moreover, Lawachurls, Mitachurls, and Samachurls can also drop these masks, providing additional farming opportunities.

Boss Drop – How to Get Hoarfrost Core

Cryo Regisvine and Hoarfrost Core

The Hoarfrost Core, a key material for Chongyun, is dropped by the Cryo Regisvine, located in Mondstadt’s northern region at Falcon Coast. Players should remember that the Cryo Regisvine is highly resistant to Cryo damage, which may make it less effective for Chongyun to take on this boss.

Local Specialty – Where to Find Cor Lapis

Cor Lapis in the wild

Chongyun requires Cor Lapis for ascension alongside Keqing and Zhongli. This mineral is found throughout Liyue, especially on Mt. Hulao, around Luhua Pool, in the Chasm area, and on Cuijue Slope.

For a more convenient option, players can purchase five Cor Lapis from Changshung in Liyue Harbor for 7, 500 Mora each, with stock replenished every three days.

Talent Books – Diligence
