Where to Find Prithiva Topaz for Gorou Ascension

Every Geo character needs this elemental gem to ascend. They can be found in souvenir shops, the Parametric Transformer and the Adventurers’ Guilds’ daily commissions. Most will come from defeating bosses, though.

These bosses will drop Prithiva Topaz used to ascend Gorou:

  • Azhdaha
  • Andrius
  • Primo Geovishap
  • Ruin Serpent
  • Geo Hypostasis
  • Golden Wolflord
  • Perpetual Mechanical Array

Where to Find Ascension Spectral Husk, Spectral Heart, and Spectral Nucleus

To level up Gorou without spending Stardust, players will need to defeat Specters for drops. These enemies can mainly be found on Watatsumi Island, Seirai Island, and in Enkanomiya.

Specters can drop different materials based on their level:

  • Any level Specter can drop Spectral Husks
  • Specters level 40 and up can drop Spectral Hearts
  • Specters level 60 and up can drop Spectral Nuclei

Where to find Perpetrual Hearts

Gorou is only one of two characters in Genshin Impact that uses the Perpetual Mechanical Array — the Perpetual Heart. The boss can be found in Inazuma.

The boss can be found through a portal on Jinren Island or by finishing the portion of the Cleansing Defilement quest that is on Araumi. The second option takes longer, but it permanently unlocks a teleport waypoint right next to the boss.

Where to Find Sango Pearl

This Local Specialty is only to Inazuma. It can be found on Watatsumi Island and Enkanomiya. The pearls appear in flower nests near bodies of water. Hotspots for Sango Pearls include the Serpent’s Bowels and near Suigetsu Pool.

Yamashiro Kenta also sells five Sango Pearls for 1,000 Mora each. He restocks every day for those who are having trouble finding the ascension items. You can access his stop after finishing the second act, Transient Dreams, of the Raiden Shogun’s Story Quest.
