Where to find Naku Weed?

Naku Weed is a local specialty of Inazuma and is sometimes found in areas affected by Balethunder (High Electro Concentration areas) such as Mikage Furnace, Mt Yougou on Seirei Island.

How to obtain Vajrada Amethyst Stones?

These stones can be obtained effortlessly. You can get them as drops after defeating certain bosses like Electro Hypostasis, Thunder Manifestation, Childe or as Commission rewards from Katheryne. Electro Hypostasis is the most efficient way to farm them. Surprisingly for people who are busy or too lazy to farm, there’s a shortcut. Genshin Impact has added Dust of Azoth in-game very recently. You can buy them from Paimon Shop using Stardust and convert any kind of Stone to your desired one in exchange for Dust of Azoth at the Crafting Bench. This way you can also get some Vajrada Amethyst stones.
How to farm Spectral Husk?

You can get this drop by defeating any kind of Spectres all over Watatsumi Island and Seirei Island in Inazuma. Spectres are similar to Slimes but more dangerous. Level 40 and Higher Slimes drops Spectral Heart. Level 60 and Higher Slimes drops Spectral Nucleus. You can also buy Spectral Husk in the Paimon Shop using Stardust.
Below is a guide by KyoStinV for more efficient farming of Slimes:
How to obtain Experience Books and Mora?

The most generic way to farm Experience Books and Mora are the Ley Lines present all over Teyvat. Completing a Ley Line gives you the corresponding drop. Higher the World Level, better the reward.
