Where to farm Desiccated Shell, Sturdy Shell, & Marked Shell in Genshin Impact

The Desiccated Shell, Sturdy Shell, and Marked Shell are Genshin Impact Ascension materials that can be used to upgrade the Light of Foliar Incision and possibly other weapons and characters in the future. These can only be farmed from Consecrated Beasts, enemies native to Sumeru's Desert of Hadramaveth.

How to defeat Consecrated Beasts in Genshin Impact

Unlike Eremites and fungi, Consecrated Beasts are tough enemies that require more brute force than usual to defeat. They're reminiscent of The Chasm's Shadowy Husks in strength, so your for-fun exploration team might struggle a bit. If you're looking to farm quickly, make sure to take a stronger battle-ready team with you. Bringing a shielder or a healer may also prove useful, though an AoE circle will usually appear on the ground to help you dodge harder-hitting attacks.

Upon defeat, the Consecrated Beasts will drop multiple Desiccated Shells, Sturdy Shells, and Hard Shells at random.
