Yaoyao will need some leveling and breakthrough materials from Sumeru, not quite Liyue materials like other Liyue characters.
Yaoyao has been officially announced by HoYoverse as a 4-star character joining the current lineup in the Genshin Impact 3.4 update. Her first official look was shared during The Game Awards, and she is a Thao-type character who uses a long-handled weapon to fight against her enemies. If you can get her from the banner or from the New Year’s Eve event, you’ll need to upgrade her and her skills if you want to use her.
HoYoverse has officially announced the details of Yaoyao’s skills, Palace of Destiny and breakthrough materials. As MGN previously covered the initial details of the character, now MGN will guide you with the materials Yaoyao needs to break through and upgrade his talent.
Yaoyao’s Breakthrough Ingredients

Yaoyao will need all of the following ingredients to break through to the maximum level in Genshin Impact:
– 1x Shredded Gem of Growth
– 9x Growth Jade Shards
– 9x Growth Jade Pieces
– 6x Birthplace Jade
– 168x Chili Chili
– 46x Conquering Vines
– 18x Translate Slime
– 30x Crystal Slime
– 36x Slime Powder
– 420,000 Mora
Tuyet Van chili is a local specialty ingredient in Liyue. This material is not difficult to find and currently including Yaoyao, only two Liyue characters need this material so most players do not need to farm this material anymore. But in case you don’t have enough Chili Chili, the following video will help you with a full farm roadmap.
The materials from Slime are similar to the Chili Chili, so breaking through Yaoyao won’t take too much effort to collect these ingredients.
Yaoyao’s Gifted Upgrade Materials

The Traveler will need to gather the following resources to max out all three of Xiao’s talents in Genshin Impact:
– 9x Lectures of “Hardwork”
– 63x Instructions Of “Hard Work”
– 114x Philosophy of “Hardwork”
– 18x Translate Slime
– 66x Crystal Slime
– 93x Slime Powder
– 18x Daka Bells
– 3x Crown of Wisdom
– 4,957,500 Mora

All three types of “Hard Work” books can be farmed from the secret scene of Thai Son Phu every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. The Daka Bell material will be a drop from the weekly boss Shouki no Kami, the Prodigal, while the Crown of Knowledge can currently only be obtained through events.
