So, You’re on an Anemoculus Hunt, Huh? Let’s Get You Sorted.
Adventurer, you found the wind-swept landscapes of Mondstadt in Genshin Impact. Now, you’re after the glowing teal wisps called Anemoculi. You wonder how many are scattered across the land. It’s a fair question. You want to max out the Statues of the Seven for juicy rewards. Let’s dive in.
The Grand Total: How Many Anemoculi Are We Talking?
You’re searching for 66 Anemoculi. That’s right. Sixty-six. It’s not a typo, believe me. Of those, 65 are in the overworld of Mondstadt. Think of it as a treasure hunt, but with wind and no buried gold… well, kinda golden rewards. The extra one? It’s your ‘tutorial Anemoculus’. Grab it during the Archon Quest “Sparks Amongst the Pages” in Prologue: Act I – The Outlander Who Caught the Wind. Missed it? No worries, it’s practically yours from Paimon.
Why Bother Collecting Every Single Anemoculus?
Collecting is important! Anemoculi help you level up the Statues of the Seven in Mondstadt. Levelling up statues is worth the time. Each level rewards you with Adventure Rank EXP, Primogems, Stamina upgrades, and Anemo Sigils. These rewards are nice!
Here’s a breakdown of Anemoculus needed for Statue levels:
| Mondstadt Statue Level (From → To) | Anemoculus Needed [Subtotal] | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| 8 → 9 | 12 [50] | 360 Adventure EXP |
| 9 → 10 | 15 [65] | 400 Adventure EXP |
You’ll need 65 Anemoculi to max out the Mondstadt statues. That extra one? It’s a ‘spare’. A clever game design freebie…
Hunting Down Those Pesky Last Few Anemoculi
You’ve scoured Mondstadt, climbed mountains, and fallen off cliffs. Still missing some floaty blue things? Don’t fret, ways exist to find them. If starting out, one Anemoculus is given right at the beginning, in the Temple of the Lion. It’s hard to miss, so if you’re at 65 and missing one… bingo!
For the rest, exploration is key. If tired of wandering, here are some tips:
- Interactive Maps: These are lifesavers. Check out websites like the Genshin Impact map (or fan-made ones). They show you almost all Anemoculi locations. Use them!
- Anemoculus Resonance Stone: Once you reach Reputation Level 2 in Mondstadt, craft an Anemoculus Resonance Stone at any alchemy table. Use it, and it points to nearby undiscovered Anemoculi. But remember, it’s a one-time use.
Musk Reef: That One Anemoculus That Needs a Bit More Effort
Let’s discuss Musk Reef. This involves effort. It’s the last Anemoculus in Galesong Hill. It won’t just be lying around. You need a mini-quest. Head to Cape Oath on the east coast. Find three Seelies on the cliffs. These spirit guides lead you to their statues. Activate them, and a wind current appears, whisking you to a warp hole that leads to Musk Reef. Now, an Anemoculus awaits. It’s your reward for solving a light puzzle.
Important PSA: They Don’t Respawn!
This is crucial: Anemoculi do not respawn. Once you’ve collected them, they’re gone forever. If you hoped to farm Anemoculi endlessly… sorry, it won’t work! You get 66 total. Collect them all if you want to max out the Mondstadt statues. Happy hunting! May the wind be ever in your favor!
