Though she's only a small sleepy child, Genshin Impact's Sayu is a powerful ninja that has been blessed with an Anemo Vision. Despite her small stature, she also wields a massive claymore in battle, making her quite the interesting character and an important member of the Shuumatsuban — a secretive ninja organization under the Yashiro Commission.
Players planning to level up Sayu and maximize her combat potential will need quite a few materials, both for ascending her and upgrading her talents. Here's a full breakdown of everything needed for Sayu's ascension and talent upgrades.

Where to Find Sayu's Ascension and Talent Materials
Gemstones - Where to Find Vayuda Turquoise
The elemental stone used by all Anemo characters in their ascension is Vayuda Turquoise. This gem, like the other elemental stones, can be obtained in a variety of ways, but the bulk of it will likely come from defeating bosses and trounce challenges. These are the bosses and trounce battles that can reward Vayuda Turquoise:
- Anemo Hypostasis
- Maguu Kenki
- Algorithm of Semi-Intransient Matrix of Overseer Network
- Setekh Wenut
- Icewind Suite - Coppelia
- Solitary Suanni
- Tenebrous Papilla
- Dvalin (Confront Stormterror)
- Scaramouche (Joururi Workshop)
For a full list of methods for obtaining Vayuda Turquoise, check this guide:
Genshin Impact: Where To Get Vayuda Turquoise
Ascending an Anemo character? They'll need some Vayuda Turquoise — here's where to find it.
Enemy Drop - Where to Find Whopperflower Nectar
Whopperflowers are found basically anywhere in Teyvat. Travelers who are having trouble need only to check their Adventurer Handbook's "Enemies" section, from which they can track Whopperflowers down.
The higher the Whopperflower's level, the better its material drops can be, as follows:
|
Enemy Level |
Possible Drops |
|---|---|
|
Any |
Whopperflower Nectar |
|
40+ |
Shimmering Nectar |
|
60+ |
Energy Nectar |
There are some good farming routes available for Whopperflowers. Check out this guide:
Genshin Impact: Whopperflower Locations
Whopperflowers are sneaky enemies in Genshin Impact that often disguise themselves as a common plant.
Boss Drop - How to Get Marionette Core
There are only two characters that use Marionette Cores in their ascension: Kazuha and Sayu. Interestingly, they're both Anemo characters.
This boss drop can be obtained by paying 40 Resin after defeating the Maguu Kenki. This strange animatronic boss is found in Inazuma, specifically on Yashiori Isand. It's wise to finish the Orobashi's Legacy questline before spending much time on Yashiori Island, as there is some extreme weather before the questline is completed. This can make the Maguu Kenki fight much harder.
Genshin Impact: How To Find And Defeat The Maguu Kenki
Maguu Kenki is one of the most mysterious of Genshin Impact's many bosses — a silent samurai automaton that battles anyone who comes near.
Local Specialty - Where to Find Crystal Marrow
Crystal Marrow is a strange ore that forms as a result of the Tatarigami energy, which itself is a product of Orobashi's remains. As a result, it can be found on Yashiori Island, most notably around Orobashi's bones. However, some Crystal Marrow deposits can be found by the Mikage Furnace on Tatarasuna as well.
Unfortunately, no shops sell Crystal Marrow, so those attempting to ascend Sayu will need to harvest all of it in the wild.
Genshin Impact: Crystal Marrow Locations
Crystal Marrows is a material that can be used to level up characters in Genshin Impact.
Talent Books - Light
The Inazuma talent books that Sayu uses is the Light series. These books can be obtained mainly by defeating the Violet Court domain on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
Genshin Impact: Every Domain Schedule
Knowing the schedule for some of Genshin Impact's Domains can help players collect certain items relatively painlessly.
Trounce Materials - Gilded Scale
Despite being from Inazuma, Sayu needs a Liyue trounce material to ascend. Namely, she'll use one of Azhdaha's drops, the Gilded Scale. Other Azhdaha drops, the Bloodjade Branch and the Dragon Lord's Crown, can be converted into Gilded Scales with some Dream Solvent and a crafting bench.

Azhdaha is a weekly boss in Genshin Impact that can easily be countered with a shielder in the team.

WHERE TO PLAY
Step into Teyvat, a vast world teeming with life and flowing with elemental energy.
You and your sibling arrived here from another world. Separated by an unknown god, stripped of your powers, and cast into a deep slumber, you now awake to a world very different from when you first arrived.
Thus begins your journey across Teyvat to seek answers from The Seven — the gods of each element. Along the way, prepare to explore every inch of this wondrous world, join forces with a diverse range of characters, and unravel the countless mysteries that Teyvat holds...
MASSIVE OPEN WORLD
Climb any mountain, swim across any river, and glide over the world below, taking in the jaw-dropping scenery each step of the way. And if you stop to investigate a wandering Seelie or strange mechanism, who knows what you might discover?
ELEMENTAL COMBAT SYSTEM
Harness the seven elements to unleash elemental reactions. Anemo, Electro, Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Dendro, and Geo interact in all sorts of ways, and Vision wielders have the power to turn this to their advantage.
Will you vaporize Hydro with Pyro, electro-charge it with Electro, or freeze it with Cryo? Your mastery of the elements will give you the upper hand in battle and exploration.
BEAUTIFUL VISUALS
Feast your eyes on the world around you, with a stunning art style, real-time rendering, and finely tuned character animations delivering you a truly immersive visual experience. Lighting and weather all change naturally over time, bringing every detail of this world to life.
SOOTHING SOUNDTRACK
Let the beautiful sounds of Teyvat draw you in as you explore the expansive world around you. Performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the soundtrack changes seamlessly with the time and gameplay to match the mood.
BUILD YOUR DREAM TEAM
Team up with a diverse cast of characters in Teyvat, each with their own unique personalities, stories, and abilities. Discover your favorite party combinations and level up your characters to help you conquer even the most daunting of enemies and domains.
JOURNEY WITH FRIENDS
Team up with friends across various platforms to trigger more elemental action, tackle tricky boss fights, and conquer challenging domains together to reap rich rewards.
As you stand atop the peaks of Jueyun Karst and take in the rolling clouds and vast terrain stretching out before you, you may wish to stay in Teyvat a little longer... But until you are reunited with your lost sibling, how can you rest? Go forth, Traveler, and begin your adventure!
