Best places in Genshin Impact to farm crystal cores

Crystal cores are one of the rarer resources in Genshin Impact. You will get them automatically as soon as you collect crystal butterflies. MeinMMO shows you all the places where you can find several crystal butterflies directly.

What do you need crystal cores for? You need crystal cores especially if you want to loot efficiently in spheres or at the “prosperity of the elements”. Because with crystal cores you can produce “enriched resin” at the alchemy table. All you need for 1x enriched resin are:

You can craft a maximum of 5 units of fortified resin. It helps you to double the loot in spheres and when the elements thrive. However, fortified resin will not work on bosses.

Sometimes you need to collect a certain number of Crystal Cores in order to progress through events.

You can also craft these 3 items with crystal cores:

• Hardiness Potion (Alchemy Table)
• Calm Potion (Alchemy Table)
• Adeptensucher-Gourmet (Schmied)

Places for crystal cores in the Drachengrat

Worthwhile sites in the Drachengrat:

• Use the teleporter near the Slumber Dragon Valley and then run to the southwest. Follow the path over the broken bridge until you come to a small broken tower where three little white fairies are waiting for you. Collect them to generate a blast of air that catapults you onto the tower – 3 crystal butterflies.
• Take the teleporter that is south of the snowy path and then fly to the east. There should be a small island there – 3 crystal butterflies.

Places for crystal cores in Liyue

Worthwhile localities in Liyue:

• Fly from the teleporter south of Tianheng Mountain towards Tianheng Mountain. In front of him there are several monsters guarding the entrance of the mountain – 6 crystal butterflies.
  • Also suitable for farming chunks of crystal and night jade.
• Teleport to the sphere by the Guyun Towers – about 5 crystal butterflies.
• Take the sphere in the north of the Aocang mountain and run south towards the moss-covered dragon figure. Next to her there is an underpass where you will find something – about 4 crystal butterflies.
• Teleport to the sphere at Mingyun village and run to the southwest. There is an underpass – 3 crystal butterflies.
  • Can also be used to collect night jade.

Places for crystal cores in Inazuma

Worthwhile localities in Inazuma:

• If you use the southern teleporter and let yourself fall at the Amakumo summit on the island of Seirai, you can bag some crystal cores inside and out – up to 12 crystal butterflies.
  • Also worth it to collect amakumo fruits.
• Take the teleporter in the north of Tatarasuna on the island of Kannazuka, scramble up the mountain to the south and run to the electrically charged tree – 5 crystal butterflies.

With this guide you can easily collect around 57 crystal butterflies and thus also 57 crystal cores.

This could help you with farming: The 4-star character Sayu has the ability to prevent crystal butterflies from flying away when you approach. However, if you collect one and there are others nearby, they still flee.

Figures like Venti and Kazuha can also help you with their elemental ability. You will be catapulted into the air with the help of this and can catch crystal butterflies that flew into the air and just wanted to flee.

Crystal cores do not spawn when it rains and every 48 hours.
