If you’re going to pull for any 5 Star character in Genshin Impact, you should pull for Ganyu. With her naturally high Crit DMG stat and a spread effect on her Charged Attack, she makes any and every battle so much easier. And yes, this includes the Sumeru enemies.

Even though Cryo doesn’t react with Dendro, Ganyu will still do big, light blue numbers to opponents. If you’re struggling with Sumeru and you become a Ganyu haver, get her up to Level 90 as soon as possible. Adding her to a Bloom Reaction team will make the most of her Cryo application. You’ll be able to Freeze enemies while applying Bloom. The same logic applies to Hyperbloom Reaction teams. The amount of numbers on your screen may be overwhelming, but they will be big.
Ganyu needs the Nectar series of common enemy drops for Ascension. All Whopperflowers drop some form of Nectar and can be found anywhere in Teyvat. Also, Whopperflowers will commonly disguise themselves as Mint or Sweet Flowers. Instead of showing a picture of the item, you’ll see a speech bubble with an ellipsis.
Ganyu’s common boss drop is the Hoarfrost Core, dropped by the Cryo Regisvine. The Cryo Regisvine can be found near the Falcon Coast in Mondstadt. Also, you’ll need to collect Shivada Jade. But don’t worry, the Cryo Regisvine has a high chance of dropping Shivada Jade!
Finally, Ganyu’s Liyue specialty is the Qingxin. Since The Chasm became available, farming Qingxin became much easier. You can find Qingxin at the top of the cliffs of the Chasm Surface and Huaguang Stone Forest.
You can also grow Qingxin in the Serenitea Pot using the Luxuriant Glebe field. Tubby sells Qingxin seeds in the Creatures of the Realm tab of the Realm Depot. Or, you can collect seeds by using the Seed Dispensary gadget. Finally, you can buy up to 10 Qingxin every two days from Bubu Pharmacy. This will cost you 6,000 Mora.
