1) Basalt Pillar and Prithiva Topaz Gemstones

• Privitha Topaz Sliver x 1

It should be noted that, once harvested, these Local Specialties will take 48 hours to respawn. Players can also buy 5 Cecilias (1000 Mora per flower) from an NPC named Flora located in front of Mondstadt's Adventurers' Guild.

In order to max out Albedo's talents to level 10, players will also need to farm 18 Tusks of Monoceros Caeli and 3 Crown of Insights.

Tusk of Monoceros Caeli is a weekly boss reward dropped by Tartaglia's trounce domain. Keep in mind that this can only be farmed once a week, so players should prioritize farming this. Meanwhile, Crown of Insights are materials that can be collected from limited events, Sacred Sakura (Inazuma), and Tree of Dreams (Sumeru).
