Gemstones - Where To Find Vayuda Turquoise
Usually, a character can gain ascension stones from their corresponding Normal Boss. But for Xiao, players have to farm two different bosses becausePrimo Geovishap inGenshin Impactwill not drop Vayuda Turquoise. The best Boss to farm Anemo stones would be Anemo Hypostasis. Meanwhile, other bosses will grant stones of mixed elements. As an alternative, Travelers can utilize Dust of Azoth to transmute the element of their owned ascension stones.
These bosses drop the Anemo gem:

Xiao’s Best Weapon Ascension Materials In Genshin Impact
For Xiao, the best 5-star weapon would bePrimordial Jade Winged-Spear. As for the 4-star, players can useBattle Pass’sDeathmatchor Paimon Shop’sBlackcliff Pole.
Primordial Jade Winged-Spear
5-star weapons are very powerful inGenshin Impact, but they also need a lot more investment than their 4-star counterparts. Players will need over one million Mora and some other things:
Mora can be farmed from Ley Lines, and Ores can be farmed in the open-world. Meanwhile, the rest of it can be gained from the following sources:
Blackcliff Pole
Primordial Jade Winged-Spear (PJWS) requires around 50% more resources compared to4-starGenshin ImpactweaponslikeBlackcliff Pole. In total, Travelers have to collect:
Just like PJWS, Blackcliff Pole’s material is also obtainable via Liyue’s weapon ascension material domain.
Deathmatch
Deathmatchis only accessible for spending players, so people who own it likelywon’t need to farm Mora. But for the rest of the resources, here’s the complete list:
This time, the weapon requires Mondstadt’s domain instead of Liyue’s. Players will also have to prepare elemental units to counter Abyss Mages and Whopperflowers.
Genshin Impactis now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
