Nahida, otherwise known as Lesser Lord Kusanali, is Teyvat's Dendro Archon and also the most prominent Dendro support character. She was first introduced in Genshin Impact Version 3.2.
Presiding over Sumeru as the God of Wisdom, the 5-star Catalyst is a versatile and easy-to-use unit that can be slotted into many team compositions.
Here's an Ascension and Talent Materials Farming Guide to assist you in unleashing Nahida's utmost potential.
Nahida Ascension Materials
Luckily, most materials to level up the Dendro Archon are currently available. For the rest, we will have to wait for Genshin Impact 3.2 New Bosses, reportedly Scaramouche & the Dendro Hypostasis.
Quelled Creeper
These elemental fragments are an ascension material dropped by the Dendro Hypostasis, a new world boss coming on Genshin Impact 3.2.
- The last of the seven Elemental Cubes will be in Sumeru's Rain Forest.
- Players need x46 Quelled Creeper for Lv. 90 Nahida.
- The Dendro Hypostasis drops 2-3 pieces of these materials once it is defeated for the cost of 40 resins.
Kalpalata Lotus
This Sumeru Specialty is a flower from Vines that grow on cliff sides. The shape of her leaves is sometimes confused with the Lotus.
- There are 64 Kalpalatas Lotus in the wild that refresh every 48 hours.
- Besides the Kalpalatas in the wild, travelers can purchase these flowers from Aramani, the Anarana near the Tree of Dreams.
- Travelers require 168 Kalpalata Lotus to reach Lv. 90 with Nahida.
Fungai Spores
Fungi are very diverse in Sumeru. The enemies can be found near cliffs, trees, and water bodies in Rainforest Areas.
These enemies drop two types of common materials when defeated, Fungai Spores and Fungai Cores. Unfortunately, the ones necessary for Nahida are obtained less often.
- To reach the Lv. 90 with Nahida travelers required:
- 18 Fungai Spores
- 30 Luminescent Pollen
- 36 Crystalline Cyst Dust

Travelers will battle them in the new domain: Shouki no Kami, the Prodigal Challenge.
Once Scaramouche is defeated will drop the talent material, Puppet Strings.
- Players will need 18 Strings to max Nahida's talents.
