Xinyan is a four-star Pyro Claymore user that hails from Liyue. She shreds some hard rock on her guitar and doesn't change her character for anyone. She's a fantastic member of any team, and one of the most lovable characters in the game.

If you're hoping to level her up and ascend her to the max level 90, this guide has you covered. We'll go over all the mats you need to level up and ascend Xinyan, as well as where to find them.

Leveling Materials

Like any character, Xinyan needs 8,362,650 EXP to reach level 90. There are a few combinations of EXP materials to get here there, but here's one way to do it:

Xinyan's Ascension Cost and Item Locations

This may come as no surprise to anyone who has ascended a Pyro character, but Xinyan needs some Agnidus Agate to unlock her level cap at levels 20, 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80. These can be obtained by defeating various bosses, most notably the Pyro Hypostasis and Pyro Regisvine.

Here's how many you need of each level:

But, that's not all. Xinyan needs some other items at each ascension level alongside the Agnidus Agate. Each character needs a boss drop, and Xinyan's is the Everflame Seed dropped by Liyue's Pyro Regisvine, which you can find northwest of Liyue Harbor, to the left of the large body of water on the map (Luhua Pool).

In addition, she'll need some of the insignias dropped by Treasure Hoarders. These enemies can be found almost anywhere, but you'll find a good number of them around Liyue.

Xinyan also needs some Violetgrass to be ascended, which is a local specialty of Liyue. This flower grows on the side of cliffs, but if you have trouble finding it, you can buy it from Verr Goldet at the Wangshu Inn and the Bubu Pharmacy. Their stock of Violetgrass refreshes every three days.

Xinyan's Talent Materials

Xinyan needs the same number of talent materials and the same amount of Mora as every other character. But, of course, the specific items she needs are different than most others.

Here's what you need to max out all three of Xinyan's upgradeable talents:

The talent books Xinyan uses (Teachings of Gold, Guide to Gold, and Philosophies of Gold) are rewards for finishing the trials at the Taishan Mansion domain on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

The Tusk of Monoceros Caeli is a reward for defeating Childe at the weekly Enter The Golden House trial. You'll have to defeat him on level 70 or higher.

Finally, you'll find Crowns of Insight during special events or by leveling up the two sacred trees of Teyvat: The Sacred Sakura in Inazuma and the Frostbearing Tree on Dragonspine.
