Ascension Materials: The Foundation of Power

First things first, you gotta ascend her to unlock higher levels and her full potential. The good news? Almost all the materials for Clorinde's ascension were available in the game before her release, so veteran players might have a head start. The bad news? You'll need a LOT of some of them.

Hereโ€™s the complete shopping list you'll need to fully ascend Clorinde to level 90:

Material Total Amount Needed
Mora 420,000 Mora
Hero's Wit 421 Hero's Wit (approx.)
Vajrada Amethyst (Sliver, Fragment, Chunk, Gemstone) 1 Sliver, 9 Fragments, 9 Chunks, 6 Gemstones
Transoceanic Pearl / Chunk / Xenochromatic Crystal 18 Pearls, 30 Chunks, 36 Crystals
Fontemer Unihorn 46 Unihorns
Lumitoile 168 Lumitoile

Where to Find Everything ๐Ÿ”

Let's break down where to farm each of these categories.

1. Electro Gemstones & Fontemer Unihorn

This is your one-stop boss shop! ๐Ÿฆ„ The Millennial Pearl Seahorse in Fontaine is your best friend here. Why? Because it drops BOTH the Vajrada Amethyst gems (needed for all Electro characters) AND the Fontemer Unihorn, which is specific to Clorinde. Be prepared to fight this seahorse... a lot. You'll need 46 Fontemer Unihorns, which means multiple weekly runs. Optimize your resin and focus here!

2. Transoceanic Materials

These shiny blue drops come from the Fontemer Aberrantsโ€”the animal-like creatures all over Fontaine. Think Blubberbeasts, Armored Crabs, and the like. You'll find them both on land and underwater. While you don't need a massive amount for ascension, you'll need a TON for her talents, so start stockpiling these early! Every crab you see is a potential resource. ๐Ÿฆ€

3. The Infamous Lumitoile

Ah, the starfish-shaped local specialty. This is the part that requires some legwork (or should we say, swim-work?). There are only 79 Lumitoile nodes in the entire game, and they respawn every 48 real-life hours.

  • Primary Location: The Liffey Region in northern Fontaine is your main hunting ground.

  • Where to look: Check both underwater and along the shorelines. The ones above ground are always near the water's edge.

Pro-Tip: Use the official interactive map on HoYoLAB to mark all the locations. Farming 168 of these means you'll need to do multiple collection cycles, so efficiency is key! ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ

Talent Materials: The Real Grind Begins ๐Ÿ˜…

Alright, you've got her to level 90. Now it's time to make her skills hit like a truck! Leveling talents is where the resource cost skyrockets. We're talking millions of Mora and hundreds of specific items.

Here's what you need to crown all three of Clorinde's talents (Normal Attack, Elemental Skill, Elemental Burst):

Material Total Amount Needed (for all 3 talents to Lv. 10)
Mora 4,957,500 Mora (Yes, nearly 5 million!)
Transoceanic Pearl / Chunk / Xenochromatic Crystal 18 Pearls, 66 Chunks, 93 Crystals
Teachings/Guide/Philosophies of "Justice" 9 Teachings, 63 Guides, 114 Philosophies
Everamber 18 Everamber
Crown of Insight 3 Crowns

Talent Farming Breakdown

1. Justice Talent Books

You'll be living in the Pale Forgotten Glory Domain in Fontaine. This domain is only available on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, so plan your resin usage around those days. Remember to use the Alchemy Table to convert lower-tier books (Teachings) into higher-tier ones (Guides, Philosophies) as you go. You'll need a lot of the purple Philosophies!

2. Weekly Boss Material: Everamber

This golden droplet comes from the Guardian of Apep's Oasis weekly boss. The tricky part here is the weekly limit. You can only claim rewards from each weekly boss once per week per difficulty. Even though you "only" need 18, it might take you over a month to collect them all unless you get lucky with Dream Solvent conversions. Don't forget to use your Dream Solvent to convert other boss drops from Apep into the Everamber you need!

3. Crown of Insight

The ultimate rarity! These are obtained from:

  • Limited-time events (the most common source).

  • Permanent Offering Systems like the Sacred Sakura's Favor in Inazuma, the Frostbearing Tree in Dragonspine, or the Tree of Dreams in Sumeru.

Use them wisely! Most players recommend crowning her Elemental Skill or Burst first, depending on your playstyle.

Pro-Tips for Efficient Farming ๐Ÿš€

  1. Resource Management: Always use Condensed Resin when farming domains and ley lines. It saves so much time!

  2. Co-op is Your Friend: Farming bosses like the Millennial Pearl Seahorse is often faster and easier in co-op mode.

  3. Ley Line Overflow Events: Keep an eye out for these special events. They double your output from Blossoms of Wealth (Mora) and Revelation (EXP books), which is perfect for stocking up for characters like Clorinde.

  4. Plan Your Routes: For Lumitoile and Fontemer Aberrant farming, plan a efficient daily route. Teleport, collect, defeat, move on. Doing it mindlessly wastes time.

  5. Start Early: If you know you want a future character, start farming their local specialty and common enemy drops ahead of time. The Transoceanic materials are used by several Fontaine characters!

Final Thoughts

Building Clorinde is a commitment. It's a journey of fighting a giant seahorse countless times, hunting starfish across Fontaine's shores, and mastering the art of domain scheduling. But the payoff is huge. A fully built Clorinde, with her unique Bond of Life mechanic and flashy pistol-blade attacks, is an absolute force on the battlefield.

Remember, Travelers, the grind is real, but so is the satisfaction of seeing your favorite character reach their maximum potential. Take it step by step, don't burn out, and soon enough, you'll have one of Fontaine's strongest duelists leading your team. Good luck, and happy farming! ๐ŸŽฎโœจ

Need more Mora or EXP Books? Don't forget about the Ley Line Outcrops: Blossom of Wealth (Mora) and Blossom of Revelation (EXP)! They're your best friends when resources run low.
