Farming all the materials for Mualani in new character in Genshin Impact 5.0.
She can collide with opponents and debuff them for increased damage, in addition to firing projectiles at them. Mualani’s damage output scales off her HP stat, much like Neuvillette, and leaks about her beta tests even before her actual release have already confirmed she is a powerful DPS unit that can match Neuvillette’s power, even if she is at her best when focusing on smaller groups or single targets rather than multiple ones. Before you get the chance to use all of this offensive potential, however, you will need to farm Ascension and Talent materials for Mualani in Genshin Impact.

Genshin Impact 5.1 Leaks Are Making Me Thrilled For Xilonen
Leaks about Xilonen in Genshin Impact hint at a Version 5.1 release, as well as an incredible set of abilities that may be worth the pulls.
Ascension Materials To Farm For Mualani In Genshin Impact
Some Materials Were Not Acquirable Before The Release Of Natlan In Version 5.0
Because Mualani is the first Natlan character to become available alongside Kachina, a lot of her Ascension materials could not be pre-farmed since they are directly linked to the Nation she is being released with. However, there are other sets of materials that players can already start working on. The first few items that Mualani will need in every stage of her Ascension process are the Varunada Lazurite stones, related specifically to Hydro characters. Varunada Lazurite can be farmed from Hydro bosses in Genshin Impact, such as the Oceanid, Hydro Tulpa, Solitary Suanni, Stormterror, Childe, and Azhdaha.
The table below lists all the Ascension materials for Mualani, as compiled by the database Honey Hunter World:

The next set of materials listed by the website is composed of Sentry’s Wooden Whistle, Warrior’s Metal Whistle, and Saurian-Crowned Warrior’s Golden Whistle. These three items of the same item family are enemy drops and they can be farmed, according to Honey Hunter World, by defeating Sauroform Tribal Warriors. These enemies, currently exclusive to Natlan, are the humanoid figures that are of tribes dedicated to the dragon-like Saurians. As such, you will need to defeat these new Natlan enemies in Genshin Impact to obtain the whistle items. They are also used in the Talent-leveling process, so farm a surplus.
As your needs increase, you can use the Alchemy Table to transform lower-grade materials into rarer ones. This is true for the Varunada Lazurite stones and the whistles, for example.
Another important material used in Mualani’s Ascension is a Local Specialty from Natlan called Sprayfeather Gill. This item, like all other Local Specialties, needs to be manually harvested and only respawns after 48 real-life hours. According to the item’s entry on Honey Hunter World, Sprayfeather Gill is mostly concentrated near the People of the Springs tribe and Toyac Springs. Only 168 copies of Sprayfeather Gill are needed, but Local Specialties in Genshin Impact tend to have a reduced number of nodes available on the map, so it may take you a few days if not more, to gather everything.
The last material on Mualani’s Ascension list is Mark of the Binding Blessing. This is a boss material that can only be acquired from defeating the Goldflame Qucusaur Tyrant boss in Natlan, as seen on Honey Hunter World. Not too many are needed, but you will need to defeat this boss several times before farming all the copies to get Mualani to level 90.

Genshin Impact's Featured 5-Star Characters Are About To Get A Lot Easier To Pull
A new character banner update arriving with Genshin Impact 5.0 may increase the odds of getting the limited character instead of a standard 5-star.
It is worth ing that if you complete Mualani’s character quest during Version 5.0, you will get the materials for her Phase 2 and Phase 3 Ascension processes, which can significantly reduce the farming and, therefore, the time invested or waiting for respawns. This was confirmed during the livestream, which revealed all the new quality-of-life details about Genshin Impact 5.0.
Talent Materials To Farm For Mualani In Genshin Impact
Some Materials Were Possible To Pre-Farm
As was previously mentioned, the whistle materials for Mualani’s Ascension are also used in her Talent-leveling process. Compared to the Ascension, a lot more copies are needed, which may force you to repeatedly defeat the new Sauroform Tribal Warriors scattered around Natlan. In addition to that, you will also need to invest time farming the Talent books for Mualani. Mualani uses the Contention books, which can only be farmed in the new Blazing Ruins Domain in Natlan, according to Honey Hunter World.
The table below lists all the Talent materials for Mualani in Genshin Impact:

|

Warrior's Metal Whistle |
|
Saurian-Crowned Warrior's Golden Whistle |
|
Lightless Mass |
|

|

Additionally, Mualani needs a weekly boss material called Lightless Mass. This item can only be farmed by beating the All-Devouring Narwhal boss in Genshin Impact. Given limitations on weekly boss challenges and the possibility of them dropping three different materials, it may take you a while to gather everything. You can use the Alchemy Table to transform another drop from the All-Devouring Narwhal into Lightless Mass, should you need or want to accelerate maxing Mualani out.
Lastly, Mualani will consume three Crowns of Insight to level up each of her active Talents to the maximum level. These items can be obtained from limited-time events and different reputation systems. In addition to the materials for Mualani’s Ascension and Talent-leveling processes, you will see yourself spending a lot of Mora to fuel them. If you are in need of Mora, you can farm the currency at Blossom of Wealth Ley Line activities.

New Genshin Impact Leak Reveals Natlan Map's Full Size
Natlan will debut with a fairly large map size in Genshin Impact 5.0, and leaks predict how much it will expand in Version 5.1 and 5.2.
Overall, Mualani’s materials seem to take a straightforward approach, though angsty players may feel disappointed given that most of the items are locked behind Natlan. As such, pre-farming isn’t entirely possible and you may see yourself having to wait a few weeks after Mualani’s release to fully unlock her potential. Nevertheless, it should not be too long before you can get Mualani operational in Genshin Impact.
