Players can pre-farm Citlali’s materials inGenshin Impactfollowing a leak that has thoroughly described all the items the character uses in her Ascension and Talent-leveling process.Citlali is a Cryo character set to arrive in Version 5.3 alongside Mavuika and Lan Yan. According to the leaks, there will be a fourth playable character, the Pyro Traveler, also being introduced in the upcoming patch for HoYoverse’s RPG. Thanks to the start of the beta tests for Version 5.3, several leaks about the content are starting to emerge, including details on thegameplay kit for Citlali inGenshin Impact.
The majority of the leaks are centered around the new playable characters, from their abilities to the aforementioned list of materials they use in their upgrade processes. However, there have also been several leaks about the playable content in the next update, including information about the world and weekly bosses in Version 5.3, as well as the events in the patch. It seems like there will be a lot of content to play through inGenshin Impact5.3, andplayers interested in pulling for Citlali can get ready for it by pre-farming most of her materials.

Citlali’s Materials In Genshin Impact 5.3 Have Leaked
The list of materials used by Citlali has leaked, as seen onHoney Hunter World. Because this is based on leaks, the materials listed are still subject to changes leading up to the character’s release in Version 5.3, soit’s important that players who intend to pre-farm them are aware that some of their farming efforts may have to be done again, with another material or set of materials. Changes like these have occurred in the past with other characters, so there’s a risk to pre-farming inGenshin Impact, but it’s the best way to be ahead once Citlali arrives.
Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks: Mavuika Already Has One Of The Funniest Bugs In The Game
Mavuika allegedly has a gameplay bug in Genshin Impact 5.3 that is hilarious, though it may not last until her official release in early 2025.
If the leak is accurate, most items on the list of materials for both Citlali’s Ascension and Talents are already available in the game. As such, they can be pre-farmed ahead of her release, allowing players to rapidly get her to level 90 and upgrade her abilities shortly after she is obtained.According to the leak, the only material that is not yet available in the game is an item called Talisman of the Enigmatic Land. According to the item’s entry onHoney Hunter World, this item drops from Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeakers, theleaked world boss inGenshin Impact5.3.

How & Where To Pre-Farm Citlali’s Ascension Materials For Genshin Impact 5.3
Only One Of The Leaked Materials Cannot Be Pre-Farmed
Players looking forward to pre-farming Citlali’s materials can start with one of the only guaranteed sets of items she will use. The Shivada Jade stones are used for the Ascension of Cryo characters and, as a confirmed Cryo character herself, Citlali will certainly use these materials.Shivada Jade Slivers, Fragments, Chunks, and Gemstones can be farmed from several bosses connected to Cryo, such as the Cryo Hypostasis, Maguu Kenki, and the aforementioned and upcoming Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker boss. Weekly bosses like Lupus Boreas, La Signora, Childe, andAzhdaha inGenshin Impactcan also drop them.
Genshin Impact Character Banners Will Get A Massive Improvement According To New Leaks
A big and drastic update may occur to banners in Genshin Impact 5.3, according to new leaks, which would spark positive change for players.
The next set of materials listed in the leaks is comprised of the Natlan fangs. Juvenile Fang, Seasoned Fang, and Tyrant’s Fang have been in the game since the release of the Nation of Pyro back in Version 5.0.These items drop primarily from the wild Saurian enemies that players can find across Natlan. These Fangs are needed abundantly as they are listed not only for Citlali’s Ascension but also for her Talents. A great way of establishing some farming routes for these Fang materials is by using the interactive map forGenshin ImpactonHoYoLAB.

Players can also purchase a few extra copies of Juvenile Fang and Seasoned Fang from the in-game shop.
Another item listed in the leaks is Quenepa Berry, a Local Specialty from Natlan. Like most other materials of this same category,Quenepa Berries have a limited quantity compared to how much is consumed by the character and they only respawn every 48 hours in real life. As such, pre-farming Quenepa Berries could be a great move to ensure that enough is in the player’s inventory as soon as they obtain Citlali from the banners in Version 5.3. The best idea is to follow theQuenepa Berry farming routes inGenshin Impacta few times before Citlali’s release.

The final Ascension material is the aforementioned Talisman of the Enigmatic Land, but that cannot be pre-farmed at all, as players will have to wait for Version 5.3 to challenge the leaked Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker world boss a few times to gather all the copies required for Citlali’s complete Ascension. Other than the Ascension itself,Citlali will consume materials for her Talents, and the leaks point toward her using the same Fang items she uses in her Ascension, but in a much larger quantity.
Genshin Impact 5.3 Leaks: Pyro Traveler’s Kit Shows Xiangling’s Reign As A Pyro Sub-DPS May Have Come To An End After Four Years
The Pyro Traveler could become the best new Pyro sub-DPS in Genshin Impact, based on the leaks regarding their gameplay kit in Version 5.3.
When it comes to other Talent materials, the leaked list says that Citlali consumes the Kindling Talent books.Teachings of Kindling, Guide to Kindling, and Philosophies of Kindling can be farmed at the Blazing Ruins Domain in Natlan on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. These can be some of the most problematic Citlali materials to farm, so the earlier players start pre-farming, the sooner they will have all the Talent books to max out the upcoming character’s abilities. Additionally, players will need to beat theKnave inGenshin Impactto drop the Denial and Judgment boss materials.

Because the Knave is a weekly boss, she can only be challenged once a week, and, on top of that, she can drop three different Talent materials, so players do not have a guaranteed Denial and Judgment drop. As such,players should start pre-farming this Citlali material as soon as possible and transform the other materials Knave drops into what they need using a Dream Solvent at the Alchemy Table. The last materials needed by Citlali are Crowns of Insight, used to max out each of her active abilities inGenshin Impact.
Crowns of Insight can be farmed from limited-time events, as well as reputation systems. Recently, it became possible to purchase Crowns of Insight from Paimon’s Bargains.
Overall, farming Citlali’s materials preemptively is quite an easy task. If the leaks are true, it will be impossible to obtain her from the banners and instantly Ascend Citlali to level 90 without facing the new leaked world boss in Version 5.3, but farming these leaked materials beforehand can save a lot of time once players obtain the new Cryo character. She is expected to be a strong shielder for team comps inGenshin Impact, so those looking for protection may see a great pull in Citlali.
