If Cloud Retainer came home to roost for you, it's time to start getting all your Genshin Impact Xianyun materials in order. Getting Xianyun's mats in order takes you to Liyue's Chenyu Vale, the only place you can find most of them, and brings the Hilichurls under fire again.

Xianyun uses Anemo stones for her main ascension material, which, happily, has a decent chance of dropping from the version 4.4 enemy that drops her boss item.

Our Genshin Impact Xianyun materials list lays out what you need to level up Xianyun and her talents.

You may also get Anemo stones from the Stormterror and Shouki no Kami (Scaramouche) weekly bosses.

Cloudseam Scale only comes from the Solitary Suanni boss, and Clearwater Jade is a local specialty in Liyue that you'll find in 4.4's Chenyu Vale region.

Scroll items drop from Samachurls, the magic-wielding Hilichurls you can find in Liyue and Mondstadt.

Lightless Eye of the Maelstrom is one of a few possible drops you can get from the All-Devouring Narwhal weekly boss. You might get something else, though you can just transmute it into Silk String at an alchemy table. Chevreuse also uses these materials, so make sure to plan ahead if you're leveling both characters.

Xianyun talent materials totals

Here's what it costs to fully level up one of Xianyun's talents.

  • 1 Crown of Insight
  • 3 Teachings of Gold
  • 6 Divining Scroll
  • 6 Lightless Eye of the Maelstrom
  • 21 Guide to Gold
  • 22 Sealed Scroll
  • 31 Forbidden Curse Scroll
  • 38 Philosophies of Gold
  • 1,652,500 Mora

The high cost of leveling talents and the fact that Xianyun shares her materials with several other characters means it's best to max out just one or two. Xianyun's skill and ultimate are her most important talents, so focus on those. Which one is best depends on whether you're using Xianyun as support - ultimate is more important - or DPS - skill is best.
