Where to Farm Kokomi’s Ascension Materials in Watatsumi Island?
To farm Kokomi’s Ascension Materials in Watatsumi Island, you will need the following:
- 1 Varunada Lazurite Sliver
- 9 Varunada Lazurite Fragments
- 9 Varunada Lazurite Chunks
- 6 Varunada Lazurite Gemstones
- 46 Dews of Repudiation
Key Locations:
- Hydro Hypostasis: Located on Watatsumi Island, this boss drops Dew of Repudiation.
- Sango Pearls: Found primarily around the Sangonomiya Shrine and the Heart of Watatsumi. You can collect a total of 168 Sango Pearls, which are essential for fully ascending Kokomi to level 90.
- Sango Pearls Locations:
- Near rivers and inside caves on Watatsumi Island
- Suigetsu Pool (northeast)
- North and south areas of Watatsumi Island
- Enkanomiya: Accessible after completing specific quests, Sango Pearls can also be found here, particularly around Serpent’s Bowels.
Additional Information:
- Sango Pearls can be purchased from Yamashiro Kenta in Ritou—5 pearls for 1,000 Mora. However, his shop is available only after completing the Second Act of the Raiden Shogun Story Quest, Impeatrix Umbrosa.
- To find Sango Pearls, look for them on pink clams near waterfalls or rivers, where they emit a moonlight-like glow.
- After you collect Sango Pearls, they will reset in 48 hours. To see them respawn, either relog or teleport from the farthest waypoint.
- It is almost entirely possible to farm all of Kokomi’s ascension materials without leaving Watatsumi Island, as Specters are abundant here, and Sango Pearls are unique to Watatsumi Island and Enkanomiya.
What Boss Drops Kokomi’s Essential Materials?
Kokomi requires several ascension materials, which are primarily obtained from bosses and enemies.
For her ascension, you will need:
- Sango Pearls: Collected from the weekly boss La Signora and can also be found on purple clams dotted around Watatsumi Island.
- Varunada Lazurite: Dropped by both the Hydro Hypostasis and Rhodeia of Lock. You can also get Varunada Lazurite Silver and higher-tier variants from the Oceanid boss.
- Dew of Repudiation: Dropped by the Hydro Hypostasis.
Additionally, the following materials are vital:
- Spectral Nucleus, Spectral Husk, and Spectral Heart: All dropped from Specters that float around. Spectral materials are dropped from enemy encounters and are essential to Kokomi’s ascension process.
This makes the Hydro Hypostasis a significant farming boss for Kokomi, as it drops both Dew of Repudiation and Varunada Lazurite.
How to Optimize Your Kokomi Build and Talent Priorities?
To fully ascend Kokomi, you need the following materials:
- 46 Dew of Repudiation
- 168 Sango Pearls
- 18 Spectral Husks
- 30 Spectral Hearts
- 36 Spectral Nuclei
For ascension phases 1 through 6, you require Varunada Lazurite Slivers, Fragments, Chunks, and Gemstones, along with the above materials. The materials can be farmed from various sources including bosses and enemies found across Watatsumi Island and Inazuma.
Specifically for ascension:
- Sango Pearls: Sangonomiya Kokomi will require a whopping 168 Sango Pearls to max out her ascension level. Only 43 Sango Pearls exist in the overworld at a given time and will respawn within two days. Hence, players should wait for several days, about nine days, to get all 168 Sango Pearls. They can be found near water bodies, making characters like Mona or Ayaka very useful for efficient farming.
- Spectral Materials: Players will need a total of 18 Spectral Husk, 30 Spectral Heart, and 36 Spectral Nucleus for ascension. Additionally, to max out all three talents, players must farm an extra 18 Spectral Husks, 66 Spectral Hearts, and 93 Spectral Nuclei by fighting Specters found all across Inazuma and Enkanomiya. These can also be crafted from the crafting table if necessary.
- Dew of Repudiation: Players should farm Hydro Hypostasis to max out Kokomi’s ascension levels. A total of 46 Dew of Repudiation is required, which can be obtained from Hydro Hypostasis drops. Hydro Hypostasis can be found in the Suigetsu Pool on Watatsumi Island.
Kokomi’s talent materials are as follows:
- 3 Teachings of Transience
- 21 Guides to Transience
- 38 Philosophies of Transience
These talent materials are found in the Violet Court domain on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Each talent also requires a Crown of Insight and 6 Hellfire Butterflies from the Narukami Island domain. To max out all three of her talents, Sangonomiya Kokomi will require:
- 9 Teachings of Transience
- 63 Guides to Transience
- 114 Philosophies of Transience
Total costs for Kokomi’s ascension:
- 420,000 Mora for ascension costs
- Approximately 430 Hero’s Wit for leveling up
- 1,652,000 Mora per talent fully leveled
For optimal farming strategies:
- Focus on hydrological farming at the Hydro Hypostasis located at Suigetsu Pool.
- Utilize the Genshin Impact interactive map for precise enemy locations.
- Use characters that can deal ranged damage against Specters to facilitate efficient farming.
