Every Ascension and Talent Material You Need to Pre-Farm for Lohen in Genshin Impact

Every Ascension and Talent Material You Need to Pre-Farm for Lohen in Genshin Impact

Lohen is a 5-star Cryo polearm character expected to arrive in Genshin Impact Version 6.6. With the 6.6 closed beta currently underway, leaked material requirements have surfaced, and the good news is that nearly everything Lohen needs can be farmed right now during Version 6.5. All material details below are drawn from beta leaks and may change before the official release.

Quick answer: To fully ascend Lohen and triple-crown all three talents, you need roughly 5.38 million Mora, a full set of Shivada Jade gems, 46 Prismatic Severed Tails, 168 Etherwing Moths, 36 Firm / 96 Sharp / 129 Weathered Arrowheads, 18 Ascended Sample: Knight, Resistance talent books (9/63/114), and 3 Crowns of Insight.


Lohen Ascension Materials (Level 1 → 90)

Character ascension covers the six stat gates between levels 1 and 90. Because Lohen is Cryo, he uses the Shivada Jade gem line. His world boss drop, Prismatic Severed Tail, comes from an existing Nod-Krai boss, meaning you can start stockpiling immediately.

Lohen Talent Materials (All Three Talents to Level 10)

Talent upgrades represent the bulk of your resin investment. The table below shows the totals for crowning all three talents. If you plan to prioritize selectively, Lohen's Elemental Skill should come first since his entire kit revolves around the Stratagem state and Piercing Frost, followed by his Elemental Burst, with Normal Attack last.

⚠️
Ascended Sample: Knight is a weekly boss drop from The Game before the Gate Trounce Domain. Weekly boss drops are time-gated, so start clearing this domain now if you haven't been. You'll need 18 total for all three talents, which takes a minimum of several weeks without Dream Solvents.

Where to Farm Each Material

Etherwing Moth

Etherwing Moth is a Mondstadt local specialty found in the Dornman Port and Temple of Space areas of northern Mondstadt, both introduced in Version 6.5. You need 168 of them, so enable the material tracking feature in your inventory and sweep through these zones every couple of days. They respawn on the standard 48-hour local specialty timer.

Prismatic Severed Tail

This normal boss drop comes from the Radiant Moongecko, located in the Wavechaser Plain area of Nod-Krai. At 46 drops needed and roughly 2–3 per kill, expect to spend around 15–23 boss runs' worth of resin. The Radiant Moongecko is already in the game, so there's no reason to wait.

Firm / Sharp / Weathered Arrowhead

Arrowheads drop from Hilichurl Shooters, one of the most common enemy types across every region in Teyvat. You can track their locations through the Adventurer's Handbook. With 261 total Arrowheads needed across all tiers (before crafting conversions), it's worth doing a daily sweep or using the Crafting Bench to convert lower-tier drops upward.

Resistance Talent Books

Teachings, Guides, and Philosophies of Resistance are farmed from the Forsaken Rift domain in Mondstadt. The domain drops these books on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. At 114 Philosophies needed for triple-crowning, this will be one of the most resin-intensive parts of the grind.

Ascended Sample: Knight

This weekly boss material drops from The Game before the Gate Trounce Domain. You can challenge it once per week for discounted resin rewards. If you get the wrong drop type, Dream Solvents can convert other drops from the same boss into the one you need.

Shivada Jade Gems

Cryo character ascension gems drop from a wide range of bosses. The most efficient approach is to farm the Radiant Moongecko for Prismatic Severed Tails and pick up Shivada Jade as a bonus. If you're short, other options include the Cryo Regisvine, Cryo Hypostasis, Frostnight Herra, and several Trounce Domains. Dust of Azoth from the Stardust Exchange can also convert gems of other elements into Shivada Jade.


What We Know About Lohen's Kit

Lohen is a Cryo Main DPS built around a mechanic called Stratagem. When he activates his Elemental Skill (Deceptive Maneuver), his attacks convert to Cryo damage and begin generating a resource called Joy. Meanwhile, teammates dealing damage in the background generate a second resource called Triumph. Once Joy maxes out at 100, his Skill transforms into Piercing Frost — a high-damage nuke whose power scales with accumulated Triumph.

His Elemental Burst, Judgement Fulfilled, consumes all stored Triumph to deal Cryo damage that scales with the amount consumed. Using it during Stratagem also extends the stance duration by 1.65 seconds. The kit heavily rewards teams that keep off-field damage flowing while Lohen stays on the field attacking.

His leaked passive talents reinforce this playstyle. One grants bonus Triumph when teammates deal especially large hits. Another gives a 15% ATK buff to both Lohen and teammates who trigger Cryo-related reactions during Stratagem. A third passive, called Hexerei, boosts his Normal and Charged Attack damage by 40% for 6 seconds after using Piercing Frost or his Burst, provided Triumph was at least half full.

Lohen's Signature Weapon — Calamity Regret

Lohen's leaked signature polearm, Calamity Regret, carries a 674 Base ATK and 22.1% CRIT Rate substat. After using an Elemental Skill, it activates two buffs for 17 seconds: one that increases Normal and Charged Attack damage, and another that increases Elemental Skill and Burst damage. Landing Normal/Charged hits extends the Skill/Burst buff timer, and vice versa, creating a self-sustaining loop that matches Lohen's Stratagem rotation perfectly.


Pre-Farming Priority

If you're planning to pull for Lohen when Version 6.6 arrives, the most efficient farming order focuses on time-gated materials first. Start with The Game before the Gate weekly boss runs immediately — 18 Ascended Sample: Knight drops take a minimum of several weeks. Next, prioritize Resistance talent books on their available days (Tuesday, Friday, Sunday). Etherwing Moths and Arrowheads can fill the gaps on other days, and Radiant Moongecko runs can happen whenever you have spare resin.

📝
All leaked material details are from the Version 6.6 beta and could change before the official release. No confirmed banner date for Lohen has been announced yet.

With everything except the weekly boss drop already farmable in the live game, dedicated players can have Lohen fully built within minutes of pulling him — assuming the final release matches current beta values.
