We are all patiently waiting for Ayato to come home as soon as possible. While farming artifacts and weapons is crucial for him, let’s start with Ayato ascension materials. We will do a thorough build guide for when he once he comes out, so be on the lookout for it. There are only a few days till Genshin Impact Version 2.6 drops, so let’s start pre-farming for Ayato. This guide will provide you with all the materials and their locations.
Ayato Level Ascension Materials:
These are the four things that you need to ascend Ayato’s level and make him level 90.
| Level | Materials Needed | Mora Needed |
| 20 | 1 Varunada Lazurite Sliver 3 Sakura Bloom 3 Old Handguard | 20,000 Mora |
| 40 | 3 Varunada Lazurite Fragment 2 Dew of Repudiation 10 Sakura Bloom 15 Old Handguard | 40,000 Mora |
| 50 | 6 Varunada Lazurite Fragment 4 Dew of Repudiation 20 Sakura Bloom 12 Kageuchi Handguard | 60,000 Mora |
| 60 | 3 Varunada Lazurite Chunk 8 Dew of Repudiation 30 Sakura Bloom 18 Kageuchi Handguard | 80,000 Mora |
| 70 | 6 Varunada Lazurite Chunk 12 Dew of Repudiation 45 Sakura Bloom 12 Famed Handguard | 100,000 Mora |
| 80 | 6 Varunada Lazurite Gemstone 20 Dew of Repudiation 60 Sakura Bloom 24 Famed Handguard | 120,000 Mora |
How to get Dew Of Repudiation?
You can obtain Dew Of Repudiation by defeating the Hydro Hypostasis. Since it is a world boss, it costs 40 resin to get the materials once and respawns in about a minute. The number of Dew of Repudiation you get varies in every turn, so there isn’t a fixed number of times you need to do the boss. You can find the boss on Watatsumi Island. If you can’t find it, just teleport to the “Palace in the Pool” domain, swim towards the Hydro Cube icon, and jump down from the hole you’ll find there.
How to farm Varunada Lazurite Stones?
Every Hydro character needs this stone to level up. You can obtain it by defeating any Hydro world boss. Since you are already going to farm the Hydro Hypostasis, you’ll automatically farm those stones.
If you don’t end up having enough, you can go to the crafting bench, use Dust from Azoth and change the other ascension stones to the Varunada Lazurite Stones. Another way of getting them is to buy them from the souvenir stores in Mondstadt and Liyue.
How to farm Sakura Bloom?
Sakura Blooms is the Inazuma specialty flower. You need to use electro on the bloom to collect it. They respawn after two real-world days, so you need to get on the grind ASAP. As for the locations, here’s a video that will help you get a lot in one go.
How to farm Handguards?
Handguards can be obtained by defeating Kairagi and Nobushi, who are all over Inazuma. Their drops have famously been less compared to enemies in the game, so you need to defeat a lot of Kairagi and Nobushi to get all the Handguards you need. For the locations, here’s a guide that will help you!

Ending Note:
All Ayato wanters will be Ayato havers, soon! But we all have to work hard and farm enough materials for Ayato, and the sooner we do it, the better. You also need a lot of Mora to level him up, so better be ready to spend a lot as well. Remember to have fun while farming, and Happy Gaming!
