Albedo's ascension materials in Genshin Impact

Albedo is a Geo-sword 5-star character in Genshin Impact. Known as a genius, he is the Chief Alchemist and Captain of the Investigation Team of the Knights of Favonius.

Albedo is expected to have a rerun banner alongside Itto and Gorou, the new Geo characters in Genshin Impact. Since he was already released in the prior version, Albedo's ascension materials are not a secret to anyone.

Players who are set on wishing Albedo may want to farm his materials early on so they won't rush when the announcement regarding the confirmation of Albedo's banner settles in.

Materials for Albedo's ascension in Genshin Impact

1) Basalt Pillar

Basalt Pillar is a character level-up material dropped by Geo Hypostasis in Guyun Stone Forest, Liyue. Aside from Basalt Pillar, Gimel also rewards players with Prithiva Topaz materials, such as Sliver, Fragment, Chunk, and Gemstone.

Albedo needs 46 Basalt Pillars to ascend to level 90 in Genshin Impact. That is roughly 23 rounds of battle that players need to complete to gain the materials. In addition, note that normal bosses like Geo Hypostasis only respawn three minutes after being defeated.

2) Cecilia

Cecilia is a Mondstadt's local specialty in Genshin Impact. This flower can only be farmed exclusively on Starsnatch Cliff. Another method to obtain this local specialty is by purchasing them from Flora in a flower shop in the City of Mondstadt.

There are only 37 Cecilia that can be found in the wild, and Albedo needs a total of 168 Cecilia. A local specialty will respawn after 48 hours. Since the number of Cecilia spawned is too small, players are recommended to put this flower as the number one priority when farming materials for Albedo.
