Genshin Impact Xilonen farming guide – All Talent & Ascension materials

Whether it's a pair of sunglasses or carving out an ancient name, Genshin Impact's upcoming five-star Geo sword user, Xilonen, can do it all. If you're interested in building the chosen hero of the Children of Echoes, prepare all of the items below.

Genshin Impact Xilonen level-up, Talent, & Ascension materials

Xilonen has not yet been released in the game, so the information below is based on leaks. Take the information with a grain of salt as there may be changes in Xilonen's kit and material requirements upon release.

Xilonen Level-up cost

Prepare the following resources to level Xilonen up to 80 or 90. While you don't have to rush to get non-EM-scaling characters to 90, I still recommend maxing out their Ascension level to unlock all Talents.

Xilonen materials & cost

To Ascend Xilonen, collect 420,000 Mora and the following materials.

Local Specialty & Boss material

x168 Brilliant Chrysanthemum

x46 Gold-Inscribed Secret Source Core

Leakers have stated that Xilonen's local specialty is the Brilliant Chrysanthemum, which you can farm for in the areas surrounding the Stadium of Sacred Flame in Natlan. Her boss material is allegedly the Gold-Inscribed Secret Source Code, an unreleased material that may be farmable once Xilonen is released in Version 5.1.

Gemstones

x1 Prithiva Topaz Sliver

x9 Prithiva Topaz Fragment

x9 Prithiva Topaz Chunk

x6 Prithiva Topaz Gemstone

Xilonen is a Geo character, so she requires all variations of Prithiva Topaz materials. These are dropped by all Geo Normal and World Bosses, including the Geo Hypostasis, Experimental Field Generator, and Azhdaha. If you can't seem to farm enough of these Gemstones, you can convert materials using the Crafting Table to turn any of your existing Gemstones into Geo variations.

Common materials

x18 Sentry’s Wooden Whistle

x30 Warrior’s Metal Whistle

x36 Saurian-Crowned Warrior’s Golden Whistle

Genshin Impact has yet to release official information surrounding Xilonen's common materials, but various leakers believe that she may require Whistles dropped by Sauroform Tribal Warriors all over Natlan. Since other Natlan characters share the same resources, I recommend farming early on to ensure you have enough once Xilonen is released.

Xilonen's Talent level-up materials & cost

Make sure to set aside 1,652,500 Mora and the materials presented below to level up all of Xilonen's Talents to 10. You can skip leveling up her least used Talents to save on resources.

Talent materials

x9 Teachings of Kindling

x63 Guide to Kindling

x114 Philosophies of Kindling

All Natlan Talent materials can be farmed from the Blazing Ruins Domain in Tepeacac Rise. According to leaks, Xilonen may require the Kindling Talent Book series, which is farmable on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.

Common materials

x18 Sentry’s Wooden Whistle

x66 Warrior’s Metal Whistle

x93 Saurian-Crowned Warrior’s Golden Whistle

Since common Talent materials mirror common Ascension materials, prepare extra whistles to level up Xilonen's skills.

Weekly Boss material & Crown of Insight

x3 Crown of Insight

x18 Lightless Silk String

Xilonen will need three Crowns of Insights to max out her Talents. These are only required to get them all to level 10 (one each), so you will realistically require only one or two, depending on how important she is in your team setup. These can be obtained from major events that usually happen once every update.

Meanwhile, her Weekly Boss material is allegedly the Mirror of Mushin, which can be farmed from the Jorouri Workshop in Sumeru's Chinhat Ravine.
