Genshin Impact: How to Ascend Nahida

Genshin Impact Version 3.2 introduced Nahida to the limited run banner. Get ready everyone, we now have over half of Teyvat’s Archons at our command! As one of four Dendro characters available, Nahida opens up the possibilities for team compositions, especially for Nilou lovers. Overall, Nahida is a solid unit. And, unlike Cyno, Nahida is far easier to farm for.

Nahida’s Sumeru Specialty is the Kalpalata Lotus. This is the really annoying flower that only grows on the cliffs of Sumeru. While less annoying to farm for than Scarabs, the Kalpalata Lotus can result in a lot of fall damage deaths. Typically, the Kalpalata Lotus can be found scattered throughout Devantaka Mountain and Apam Woods, along the southeast portion of Sumeru. If you hit the desert border, you’ve gone too far west.

Currently, the Kalpalata Lotus cannot be grown in the Serenitea Pot. However, Aramani sells the Kalpalata Lotus for 1,000 Mora each. Aramani can be found in the dream version of Vanarana after you complete the World Quest, The World of Aranara.

Nahida’s common enemy drop is the Fungal Spores series. Fungal Spores are dropped by pretty much all of the mushroom enemies in Sumeru. And the mushrooms are everywhere. Yes, even in the desert. Remember, do not use Pyro or Electro characters if you’re farming for Fungal Spores! Either of these Elements will transform Fungal Spores to the Inactivated Nucleus series.

Finally, Nahida’s common boss drop is the Quelled Creeper. Version 3.2 gave us yet another Hypostasis, this time it’s the Dendro variety. The Dendro Hypostasis can be found in the southeast portion of the desert, thankfully right next to a Waypoint. Keep in mind that you do need a Dendro character on your team to fight the Dendro Hypostasis.

The Dendro Hypostasis will also drop the Nagadus Emerald series, the gems needed for any Dendro characters’ ascension. The Jade-Winged Terrorshroom will also drop the Nagadus Emerald series, so you can teleport between the two until your Resin runs out.
