How to Farm Nagadus Emerald?
Nagadus Emerald is a Dendro character ascension material. You can get it by defeating Dendro bosses in Genshin Impact. The best bosses to farm are:
- Jadeplume Terrorshroom (Sumeru)
- Dendro Hypostasis (Sumeru)
- Apep (Sumeru, weekly boss)
These bosses drop different tiers of Nagadus Emerald based on their level. Higher-level bosses have better drop rates for the rarer gemstones. You can also convert other elemental gems using the crafting table if you have extras.
Pro Tip: Fight the Jadeplume Terrorshroom for the most consistent Nagadus Emerald drops. Bring a Pyro character to burn its mushroom shields quickly!
Where to Find Moonfall Silver?
Moonfall Silver is a local specialty found in Nod-Krai, specifically on Hiisi Island. You can find it in these locations:
- Frostmoon Enclave
- Crab Tsar’s Palace
- Light-Bathed Platform
- Moon-Bathed Courtyard
There are over 70 Moonfall Silver nodes across Hiisi Island. They respawn every 48 hours, so you can collect them twice a week. The crystals glow with a soft blue light, making them easier to spot at night.
Farming Route: Start at Light-Bathed Platform and work your way west, then circle back east. This route covers most of the spawn points efficiently.
How to Get Warrant Materials from Fatui Oprichniki?
Warrant materials come in three tiers: Tattered, Immaculate, and Frost-Etched. You can get them by defeating Fatui Oprichniki enemies in Nod-Krai. Here’s what you need to know:
- Tattered Warrant: Dropped by level 1+ Fatui Oprichniki
- Immaculate Warrant: Dropped by level 40+ Fatui Oprichniki
- Frost-Etched Warrant: Dropped by level 60+ Fatui Oprichniki
Use your Adventurer Handbook to track Fatui Oprichniki locations in Nod-Krai. They’re often found near roads and campsites. You can also exchange Stardust in the shop for these materials if you’re having trouble finding enough enemies.
Example: A player reported farming 30 Frost-Etched Warrants in one hour by focusing on the Fatui Oprichniki camps near the northern teleport waypoint in Nod-Krai.
When Will Radiant Antler Be Available?
Radiant Antler is a special material that isn’t available in the game yet. It will be dropped by the Frostnight Herra boss, which is coming in the Luna II update. Here’s what we know:
- Boss: Frostnight Herra (new boss in Luna II)
- Location: Nod-Krai (exact location unknown until update)
- Requirement: Must be level 30+ to drop the material
- Quantity Needed: 46 for full ascension
Since this material isn’t available yet, focus on farming everything else first. You’ll need to wait for the Luna II update to collect Radiant Antlers.
Data Point: Based on previous updates, the Luna II expansion is expected to release in late 2025, giving you time to prepare other materials.
Where to Farm Books of Elysium?
Books of Elysium are talent materials that come in three tiers: Teachings, Guide, and Philosophies. You can farm them at the Lightless Capital Domain on Lempo Isle in Nod-Krai.
Domain Schedule:
- Available Days: Tuesday, Friday, Sunday
- Adventure Rank Requirement: 27+
- Location: Lightless Capital, Lempo Isle, Nod-Krai
The domain costs 20 Resin per run and drops different tiers based on the domain level. Higher domain levels have better chances of dropping the rarer books.
Pro Tip: Bring a balanced team with a healer and shielder, as the Lightless Capital Domain can be challenging with its Dendro and Cryo enemies.
How to Obtain Ascended Sample: Rook?
Ascended Sample: Rook is a weekly boss material dropped by the “Unresolved Chess Game” Trounce Domain. Here’s how to get it:
- Domain: Unresolved Chess Game (Trounce Domain)
- Resin Cost: 30 Original Resin per run
- Weekly Reset: Monday at 4:00 AM server time
- Quantity Needed: 6 for maxing all talents
This domain features chess-themed enemies and mechanics. A Freeze team works well here, as many enemies are vulnerable to Cryo applications.
Example: Many players recommend using Ayaka, Kokomi, Kazuha, and Shenhe for a smooth run with high damage output.
Nefer Ascension Priority: What to Farm First?
With so many materials needed, it’s smart to prioritize your farming. Here’s the recommended order:
- Moonfall Silver (168 needed) – Start now since they respawn every 48 hours
- Warrant Materials – Farm Fatui Oprichniki whenever you see them
- Nagadus Emerald – Fight Dendro bosses weekly
- Books of Elysium – Farm on Tuesday, Friday, Sunday
- Ascended Sample: Rook – Weekly boss run
- Radiant Antler – Wait for Luna II update
This order ensures you’re farming materials that take the longest to collect first. Remember to save your Mora too – you’ll need over 2 million for everything!
