It is said that the Snow-Tombed Starsilver once belonged to a hero from another world named Imunlaukr in Genshin Impact. The Claymore was originally used by the people of Sal Vindagnyr but was later gifted to the outlander by the chief priest Varuch’s daughter whose name was The Princess.

In Genshin Impact, knowing which swords get the job done is handy information. This tier list should help players prioritize the best ones.

Although the Snow-Tombed Starsilver is a low-tier 4-Star Claymore in Genshin Impact, its performance isn’t that bad. Obtaining the Snow-Tombed Starsilver won’t be easy, as it requires solving a very long puzzle that includes eight Stone Tablets scattered around Dragonspine, Mondstadt.

Updated on October 31, 2023, by Nahda Nabiilah: Unlike other weapons in Genshin Impact where players can obtain them via spending Acquaint Fate and Intertwined Fate on Banners, the Snow-Tombed Starsilver Claymore is acquired by solving a long puzzle in Dragonspine. Travelers are tasked with reading Stone Tablets scattered around the snowy area to light up the torches found next to the Murals inside the Snow-Tombed Starsilver Claymore’s cave. Upon obtaining the Claymore in Genshin Impact, the Glacial Steel Achievement is rewarded which falls under the Wonders of the World category.

How To Get Snow-Tombed Starsilver Claymore In Genshin Impact

Snow-Tombed Starsilver in Genshin Impact

There are two ways players can get a Snow-Tombed Starsilver Claymore in Genshin Impact:

  • Finish a hidden objective in Dragonspine
  • Forge the weapon at the Blacksmith

However, before players can begin forging the weapon, they must first obtain the required Blueprint. The Blueprint can be obtained by finishing the hidden objective (point #1), so players basically will get the Claymore before they can forge the Snow-Tombed Starsilver.

The following materials are required to forge a Snow-Tombed Starsilver Claymore:

  • Northlander Claymore Billet x1
  • Crystal Chunk x50
  • Starsilver x50
  • Mora x500

The only renewable source for the Northlander Claymore Billet in Genshin Impact is getting it via the Weekly Boss. Other than that, this rare item is also rewarded from certain events or explorations. For example, reaching level 9 of the Lumenstone Adjuvant in the Chasm or level 14 on Inazuma's Sacred Sakura Tree. Since the release of Sumeru, it's also possible to convert Midlander Billet to its Northlander counterpart by spending two Dream Solvents.

Meanwhile, Crystal Chunk must be farmed from the open world, while Genshin Impact Starsilver is exclusively available in the snowy mountains of Dragonspine.
