Yinlin's materials are scattered across Sol-3, and some are only dropped by defeating certain enemies and World bosses.

Coriolus nodes can be found scattered across the Dim Forest, typically growing on trees or rocks. There are currently 36 Coriolus in the wild, respawning every 48 hours. Consider visiting a friend's world to farm their Coriolus if you're impatient! You can also purchase 15 Coriolus from the Shifang Pharmacy in Jinzhou Main City.

Group Abomination Tacet Core

Whispering Cores come in four different rarities, all needed for Yinlin's Ascension and Forte upgrades. You can acquire these by defeating Tacet Discords in the wild. You can also synthesize one type of Whispering Core into another at the Academy's Synthesizer in Jinzhou.

Helix (Lento/Andaigo/Presto)

To obtain the different Helix rarities, you must complete the Forgery Challenge: Misty Forest. You can also purchase these from the weapon shop in Jinzhou.

To unlock Forgery Challenges in Wuthering Waves, you will need to reach Union level 20 and complete the main story's third act. The Forgery Challenges section will then be integrated into your Guidebook.

Unwarranted Feather

The boss required for this drop, Undeluded, is yet to be unlocked. It's likely located in the Black Shores region, which will probably be accessible with the 1.0 Phase 2 update.

When Will Yinlin be Released?
