Durin’s introduction to Genshin Impact brought one of the most intriguing lore twists in recent memory. Originally crafted as a storybook entity within Simulanka, Durin gains a physical form in Teyvat thanks to Albedo’s alchemical intervention. As a Pyro support-sub DPS hybrid, he benefits enormously from proper leveling, ascension, and talent investment.

If you’re planning to build Durin to his full potential, you’ll need a significant stockpile of materials sourced from multiple regions, bosses, and domains. This complete guide breaks down everything required for Durin’s ascension and talent upgrades, along with where to find each resource efficiently and how to plan your farming route.

Durin Leveling Requirements (1–90)

Before ascending Durin, you must level him normally. Raising a character from 1–90 demands the same EXP as other 5-stars.

Total EXP & Mora Needed

• 8,362,650 Character EXP

• 1,673,400 Mora

This total remains consistent across all characters, but the materials tied to each ascension phase are unique. That’s where Durin’s farming journey begins.

Below is a complete summary of what you’ll need to max Durin from 1–90.

Where to Find Durin’s Ascension & Talent Materials

Agnidus Agate (Pyro Gems)

Used in nearly every Pyro character ascension.

Dropped By:

• Pyro Regisvine

• Pyro Hypostasis

• Primo Geovishap (Pyro-infused)

• Azhdaha (Pyro week)

• Iniquitous Baptist

• Emperor of Fire and Iron

• Lava Dragon Statue

• Tenebrous Papilla

• Legatus Golem

• Goldflame Qucusaur Tyrant

• The Knave

• Super-Heavy Landrover

• Radiant Moonfly

• Lord of Eroded Primal Fire

Weekly bosses who rotate Pyro infusion also drop these gems.

Frostlamp Flowers (Local Specialty)

These flowers are scattered across several frigid areas:

• Frostmoon Enclave

• Eye of Kratti

• Final Night Cemetery

• Sigurd’s Grave

You can also purchase five every three days from Richeza in Nasha Town.

Because Durin requires 168 in total, plan to farm these across several days or craft them into Condensed Resin routes alongside Pyro bosses.

Cyclic Military Kuuvahki Cores (Boss Drop)

Dropped by:

• Super-Heavy Landrover: Mechanized Fortress in Paha Isle

This boss is durable and mechanically complex, so ensure your team includes shielders or high mobility to avoid heavy hits.

Fatui Warrants (Enemy Drops)

Dropped by Fatui Oprichniki, with drop tiers scaling by enemy level:

• Any Level: Tattered Warrant

• Level 40+: Immaculate Warrant

• Level 60+: Frost-Etched Warrant

These enemies frequently appear in Inazuma, Snezhnaya outposts, Fontaine ruins, and endgame zones.

Ballad Talent Books

Durin’s talent books are from Mondstadt’s Ballad series.

Domain: Forsaken Rift

Available:

• Wednesday

• Saturday

• Sunday

Bring characters with crowd control or AoE damage since the domain often features Abyss enemies with shields.

Eroded Sunfire (Weekly Boss Material)

Dropped by:

• Lord of Eroded Primal Fire

This weekly boss demands strong elemental reactions. Bringing teams with off-field damage and shielding makes the fight far smoother.
