Genshin Impactnever ceases to amaze as they introduce unique and beautifully designed characters with every patch update. As of 4.2, a new Archon was introduced to the playable roster. Furina de Fontaine, also known as Focalors, is undoubtedly one of the characters with the most flair in the game.
This Archon who rules over the power of Hydro has a penchant for being the center of attention. And, despite what the Fontaine Lore might reveal to us, Furina’s kit is pretty impressive. If you are one of the Archon’s adoring subjects and want to build her to show your devotion, you will need quite a few materials.
Furina’s Ascension Materials
The Hydro Archon, Furina de Fontaine, does not take a bigdeviation from the regular character ascension formulashared by all characters. Sheonly differs in the materialsthemselves.
To ascend Furina, you will needa couple of different resources spanningregular materials, regional specialties unique to Fontaine, normal World Boss drops, stone fragments of the Hydro variant, and Mora by the handful.
The regional specialty required to ascend Furina is called Lakelight Lily,which was added in the 4.2 patch update along witha map expansion that annexed the Erinnyes Forestto the existing map, right East of Marcotte Station. Likewise, the Normal Boss drop that you will need can befound underwater, North of Elynas, andit’s called Water That Failed to Transcend, obtained by defeating the Hydro Tulpa.
Lastly, you will have tovisit all the other nations (especially Liyue) to grab someWhopperflower drops, as there are very few in Fontaine, making it nearly impossible to farm enough of their drops in this nation to meet Furina’s ascension quotas. To reach Furina’s max ascensionyou will need all the following:
1
40
20,000
Lakelight Lily x 3
Whopperflower Nectar x 3
2
50
40,000
Lakelight Lily x 10
Whopperflower Nectar x 15

60,000
Lakelight Lily x 20
Shimmering Nectar x 12

70
80,000
Lakelight Lily x 30
Shimmering Nectar x 18
5
80
100,000
Lakelight Lily x 45
Energy Nectar x 12
6
90
120,000
Lakelight Lily x 60
Energy Nectar x 24
Water That Failed to Transcend x 20
It is advisable to keep count of both the quantity and rarity of materials, asgathering them is the most time-consuming part of leveling up a character. Dividing the process into chunks over a few daysmight help to make it easier to collect everything.
Collecting Normal World Boss dropshas a cost of 40Original Resinper round. Each round will give you anywherebetween one and three drops, so you will roughlyneed 920 Original Resin for boss drops aloneat a two-per-drop average.
At 160 per day, that is about five to six days' worthof Original Resin if you let itreplenish by itself instead of using Fragile Resinto recharge it immediately.
What Is The Total Cost Of Leveling Up Furina?
There are a lot of implied costs in leveling up any character from one to 90 and you will need a lot of materials, which means that you will also need a lot of Resinto get a character to its maximum possible level and ascension.This often leads to the mistake of focusing just on these elements andglossing over the amount of Mora and EXP needed.
However, you canrun out of Mora and EXP in the middle of ascending a character, which can put you in a tough spot, so the process will gomuch more smoothly if you factor these costs into your budgetfrom the start.The EXP and Mora cost for leveling Furinaup is as follows:
Experience Book Cost And Approx Waste
1 - 10
5,000
10 - 20
18,800
20 - 30
42,400
30 - 40
73,000
40 - 50
115,800
50 - 60
170,800
60 - 70
239,000
70 - 80
322,200
80 - 90
684,600
To sum it up, taking Furina from level one to 90 will cost404 Hero’s Wit, 35 Adventurer’s Experience, 12Wanderer’s Advice, or any other combination equivalent to about 8,362,650 EXP. We recommend using this list totry and waste as little EXP as possible, but there are infinite combinations that can get you there.
Leveling up a character willalso cost you about 1,671,600 Mora. Once you add up the cost of Ascension, it will come toroughly 2,091,600 Mora for everything but the Talents, which have costs of their own.
EachWanderer’s Advice is worth 1,000 EXP, eachAdventurer’s Experience is worth 5,000 EXP, and eachHero’s Wit is worth 20,000 EXP. You should also considerkeeping an extra 50,000 Mora to offset error margin costs.
Furina’s Talent Materials
As fundamental as leveling and ascending a character is,the majority of their strength will still come from their Talent levels. This can be quite the conundrum, asTalent Ascension is the most challenging and time-consuming partof bringing a character to their performance peak.
Furina usesJustice Talent Books to level up, which can be farmed in thePale Forgotten Glory Domain of Mastery in Fontaine. You will find them on Tuesdays and Fridays, and they are also available on Sundayswhen all materials for every domainare available at once.
Her Weekly Boss drop, Lightless Mass,can only be obtained from theShadow of Another World Trounce Domain. This domain is a key part ofthe Fontaine Archon Quest line, butyou can gain quick access to it through the Adventurer Handbook, even if you haveyet to play through the quest.
Lightless Mass is one of three potential random dropsyou may obtain in this domain, the other two beingLightless Silk String, and Lightless Eye of the Maelstrom.
Furina is aSword wielder with a very versatile kitthat lets her serve as a Sub DPS, Support and Healer all at once. Nevertheless, the emphasis for leveling up her Talentsshould be placed on her Elemental Skill, which can either cause DMG or heal,depending on her Arkhe state.
To level up Furina’s Talents, you will needthe following materials in these quantities:
12,500
Teachings of Justice x 3
Whopperflower Nectar x 6
17,500
Guide to Justice x 2
Shimmering Nectar x 3
25,000

To reach level ten you will also need aspecial material called Crown of Insight,which you may obtainthrough limited-time events or special placeslike the Frostbearing Tree, the Sacred Sakura, the Tree of Dreams, or the Fountain of Lucine.
