Genshin Impact has just entered the second half of version 2.3, and Gorou has now been released as a playable character.
The event banners have rotated, and Gorou has appeared as a 4-star Geo bow character under Arataki Itto's banner. In the coming weeks, many Genshin Impact players will surely summon and build this new character. As with any character, there are several boss materials, monster drops, and open-world items needed to build and ascend Gorou.
Ascension materials for Gorou in Genshin Impact
To ascend Gorou to level 90, Genshin Impact players need to collect these items:
- Sango Pearl x168
- Perpetual Heart x46
- Prithiva Topaz
- Sliver x1
- Fragment x9
- Chunk x9
- Gemstone x6
- Specter Drops
- Spectral Husk x18
- Spectral Heart x30
- Spectral Nucleus x36
Players may farm Perpetual Hearts from the Perpetual Mechanical Array. This world boss waits in the underground area of Narukami Island, above the north coast. The Perpetual Mechanical Array may also drop some of the Prithiva Topaz stones needed to ascend Gorou.
Gorou's other ascension materials may be found in the open world. Sango Pearls spawn exclusively in Watatsumi Island. Specters, meanwhile, spawn primarily in both Watatsumi and Seirai Island. Map locations for Sango Pearls and Specters are shown below.
About 44 Sango Pearls may spawn at once, and they respawn 2 real-time days after collecting them. For max ascension, Gorou needs a total of 168 Sango Pearls, meaning players may need a week or more to level him up fully.
Specters, like other open-world enemies, respawn daily. All three of their unique drops are necessary for both Gorou's ascension and talents, so gamers may consider farming them rather quickly.
Gorou will be available on the character event banner for the next three weeks, until version 2.4 releases on January 5, 2022. Genshin Impact players only have until then to summon Gorou from the event banner. He will likely appear in some future event banners, and since he's a 4-star, players may summon him from the standard banner in future updates.
