Enemy Drop – Where to Find Whopperflower Nectar

Whopperflowers and Their Drops

Whopperflowers are abundant across Teyvat. If you encounter challenges, check the “Enemies”section of your Adventurer Handbook for locations.

The higher the level of the Whopperflower, the more valuable its drops are, as follows:

Enemy Level Possible Drops
Any Whopperflower Nectar
40+ Shimmering Nectar
60+ Energy Nectar

Consider various farming routes for collecting Whopperflowers efficiently.

Boss Drop – How to Get Marionette Core

Maguu Kenki and Marionette Core

Marionette Cores are necessary for both Sayu and Kazuha’s ascensions. This unique item drops from the Maguu Kenki, located on Yashiori Island in Inazuma. Be prepared to spend 40 Resin after defeating this formidable opponent. Completing the Orobashi’s Legacy questline is advisable before attempting the fight, given the severe weather conditions that may complicate it.

Local Specialty – Where to Find Crystal Marrow

Crystal Marrow in Inazuma

Crystal Marrow, an ore formed from Tatarigami energy, can be found around Orobashi’s bones on Yashiori Island and occasionally near the Mikage Furnace in Tatarasuna. Unfortunately, this item is not sold in any shops, requiring players to collect it directly from the wild.

Talent Books – Light

Violet Court Talent Domain

Sayu’s talent books, part of the Light series, can be obtained primarily by clearing the Violet Court domain on specific days: Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Trounce Materials – Gilded Scale

Azhdaha Gilded Scale

Despite her Inazuma origins, Sayu requires a Liyue trounce material for ascension: the Gilded Scale from Azhdaha. Other drops from Azhdaha, including the Bloodjade Branch and the Dragon Lord’s Crown, can be converted into Gilded Scales at a crafting bench using Dream Solvent.
