Ascension | |||
Soon after starting in Genshin Impact, players will unlock their first character other than the Traveler. That character is Amber, a positive, bubbly young woman who helps acquaint them with this strange world.
Amber is a Pyro bow user, and though many people consider her a bit lackluster, she's a faithful companion with a lot of potential if used right. Here's how to ascend her and upgrade her talents.
Leveling Materials
Amber is one of the free Genshin Impact characters, but that doesn't mean she uses any less EXP than a paid character. Here's how much she needs between each ascension level:
Level | EXP | Mora |
|---|---|---|
1-20 | 120,175 | 24,200 |
20-40 | 578,325 | 115,800 |
40-50 | 579,100 | 116,000 |
50-60 | 854,125 | 171,000 |
60-70 | 1,195,925 | 239,200 |
70-80 | 1,611,875 | 322,400 |
80-90 (max) | 3,423,125 | 684,800 |
Totals: | 8,362,650 EXP | 1,673,400 Mora |
Amber Ascension Items
Amber's a Pyro character, meaning she'll need some Agnidus Agate. Being from Mondstadt also means some local specialties, in her case, Small Lamp Grass. Here's everything Amber needs at each ascension level:
Level | Gems | Enemy Drops | Boss Drops | Specialty | Mora |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
20 | 1x Agnidus Agate Sliver | 3x Firm Arrowhead | - | 3x Small Lamp Grass | 20,000 |
40 | 3x Agnidus Agate Fragment | 15x Firm Arrowhead | 2x Everflame Seed | 10x Small Lamp Grass | 40,000 |
50 | 6x Agnidus Agate Fragment | 12x Sharp Arrowhead | 4x Everflame Seed | 20x Small Lamp Grass | 60,000 |
60 | 3x Agnidus Agate Chunk | 18x Sharp Arrowhead | 8x Everflame Seed | 30x Small Lamp Grass | 80,000 |
70 | 6x Agnidus Agate Chunk | 12x Weathered Arrowhead | 12x Everflame Seed | 45x Small Lamp Grass | 100,000 |
80 | 6x Agnidus Agate Gemstone | 24x Weathered Arrowhead | 20x Everflame Seed | 60x Small Lamp Grass | 120,000 |

Gemstones - Where to Find Agnidus Agate
Agnidus Agate, like the other elemental gems, can be earned by completing all four daily commissions and visiting the Adventurers' Guild, purchased from souvenir shops, or created in the Parametric Transformer. However, most of it will come from defeating bosses who can drop it. This includes:
- Pyro Regisvine
- Pyro Hypostasis
- Primo Geovishap*
- Algorithm of Semi-Intransient Matrix of Overseer Network
- Iniquitous Baptist
- Emperor of Fire and Iron
- Legatus Golem
- Andrius (The Wolf of the North Challenge)
- Azhdaha (Beneath the Dragon Queller)*
- La Signora (Narukami Island: Tenshukaku)
- The Knave (Scattered Ruins)
*Azhdaha and the Primo Geovishap can only drop Agnidus Agate when they're aligned with Pyro.
Enemy Drop - Where to Find Hilichurl Arrowheads
It'll be fairly easy to have enough Arrowheads to ascend Amber, since Hilichurls are basically everywhere. However, they need to be higher levels to drop better materials.
- Any level Hilichurl can drop Firm Arrowheads
- Hilichurls that are level 40 or higher can drop Sharp Arrowheads
- Hilichurls level 60 and up can drop Weathered Arrowheads
It's important to note that only Hilichurl Shooters can drop Arrowheads, unlike Hilichurl Masks, which can be dropped by various Hilichurl-type enemies.
Boss Drop - How to Get Everflame Seed
Like many other Pyro characters released in the early days of Genshin Impact, Amber needs some Everflame Seeds to ascend. This is the unique boss drop from the Pyro Regisvine, which is found in Liyue.
Local Specialty - Where to Find Small Lamp Grass
These strange glowing plants are needed by Amber, Diluc, and Fischl for their ascension. They can be found in various places around Mondstadt, but a high concentration of them can be found in the Whispering Woods.
Additionally, Small Lamp Grass can be grown in the Serenitea Pot or purchased from Flora, the young girl who runs the flower shop in Mondstadt. She'll stock five every three days and sell them for 1,000 Mora each.
Amber Talent Materials
Amber embodies the spirit of Mondstadt extremely well. She's a freedom-loving young woman who enjoys nothing more than gliding on the wind and soaring through the sky. It's fitting, then, that she uses the Freedom talent series to upgrade her talents.

Talent Books - Freedom
The Freedom talent books can be obtained from the Forsaken Rift domain, like the other Mondstadt talent books. The Freedom series is available on Mondays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
Trounce Materials - Dvalin's Sigh
Dvalin's Sigh, the trounce material Amber's talents need, can, of course, be obtained by defeating Dvalin in the Confront Stormterror trounce domain.
