Yo, fellow Travelers! Buckle up because today, I'm spilling all the tea on how to farm for Emilie, the 5-star Dendro perfumer from Fontaine. Let me tell you, building her is a journey, but man, is it worth it. She's been around for a couple of years now, but as a top-tier off-field sub-DPS specializing in Burning reactions, she's still a total game-changer, especially if you're running a main Pyro DPS like Hu Tao or Arlecchino. I remember when I first got her—I was so hyped to unlock her full potential. But before you can see those sweet, sweet damage numbers, you gotta roll up your sleeves and farm. And I mean farm. So, let's dive into everything you need, from Ascension stones to those pesky weekly boss drops. Trust me, I've been there, done that, and I'm here to guide you through it step-by-step.

First things first, let's talk Ascension. To get our girl Emilie to level 90, you'll need a whole bunch of materials. The good news? Most of this stuff has been in the game for ages, so you might already have a head start. The cornerstone of her Ascension is the Nagadus Emerald family of gems. These bad boys drop exclusively from Dendro bosses. I spent more time than I'd like to admit farming the Dendro Hypostasis and the Guardian of Apep's Oasis. Pro tip: if you're swimming in other elemental gems, hit up the Alchemy Table and transmute them. It's a lifesaver!

Here’s a quick breakdown of all the Ascension materials you'll need, per level threshold:

Ascension Phase Level Nagadus Emerald Lakelight Lily Fragment of a Golden Melody Gear (Meshing/Spur/Dynamic) Mora
1 20→40 1 Sliver 3 0 3/3/0 20,000
2 40→50 3 Fragment 10 2 15/0/0 40,000
3 50→60 6 Fragment 20 4 12/0/0 60,000
4 60→70 3 Chunk 30 8 0/18/0 80,000
5 70→80 6 Chunk 45 12 0/12/0 100,000
6 80→90 6 Gemstone 60 20 0/0/24 120,000
TOTAL 1/9/9/6 168 46 30/30/24 420,000

Next up is the local specialty: Lakelight Lily. Oh boy, this one can be a grind. These beautiful flowers only grow in Erinnyes Forest, and there are only 79 nodes in the entire game. They respawn every 48 hours IRL, so gathering all 168 you need requires patience and a solid farming route. My advice? Use the interactive map on HoYoLAB to plan your runs. It's a game-changer and saves you so much time.

Now, for the boss material: Fragment of a Golden Melody. You'll need 46 of these, and they drop from the Legatus Golem in Petrichor. Let's just say RNG wasn't on my side—I had to fight that golem more times than I can count. The drop rates can be unstable, so brace yourself for multiple runs. It's all part of the grind, am I right?

The last set for Ascension are the gears: Meshing Gear, Mechanical Spur Gear, and Artificed Dynamic Gear. These drop from Clockwork Meka enemies all over Fontaine, both on land and underwater. They're the easiest to farm objectively, but you need a ton of them—not just for Ascension but for her Talents too. So, make it a habit to smash every Clockwork Meka you see. Every. Single. One.

And let's not forget the Mora! A cool 420,000 Mora just for the Ascension stages, not including the millions more you'll need for leveling and Talents. Farming Blossoms of Wealth is your best friend here. It's a bit of a slog, but hey, no pain, no gain!

Alright, onto the fun part: Talent Materials. If you want Emilie to truly shine as a sub-DPS, you gotta level those abilities. And guess what? Those gears I just mentioned? You'll need even more of them. Seriously, stockpile those things like there's no tomorrow.

Here’s what you need to triple-crown her Talents (that's level 10 for Normal Attack, Elemental Skill, and Elemental Burst):

  • Talent Books: Order

  • Teachings of Order: 9

  • Guide to Order: 63

  • Philosophies of Order: 114

  • Total: 186 books — Yep, it's a lot.

  • Boss Material: Silken Feather (from the Knave weekly boss): 18

  • Crown of Insight: 3

  • Gears (again!):

  • Meshing Gear: 18

  • Mechanical Spur Gear: 66

  • Artificed Dynamic Gear: 93

  • Mora: A whopping ~4,957,500 Mora (for all three talents to level 10).

Let's break down the Talent books. Order books are farmed in the Pale Forgotten Glory Domain, but only on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. They're the same books used by Arlecchino, so if you've built her, you might have some leftovers. The domain is your most reliable source, though you can occasionally get them from chests or the Parametric Transformer.

The weekly boss material is Silken Feather, dropped by the Knave (Arlecchino's boss challenge). You only need 18 in total, but with weekly limits and unpredictable drops, it can take a month or more to get enough. It's a test of patience, for sure.

And finally, the Crowns of Insight. These are the holy grail, obtained from limited-time events and offering systems like the Sacred Sakura or the Tree of Dreams. Never miss an event that gives these out!

To wrap it all up, building Emilie is a commitment. It's a resource-heavy process that requires planning, grinding, and a fair bit of Mora. But let me tell you, once she's fully Ascended and her Talents are maxed out, pairing her with a strong Pyro DPS creates an unstoppable Burning reaction machine. The damage output is absolutely insane. So, take it one step at a time, use your Resin wisely, and soon enough, you'll have a powerhouse perfumer ready to dominate the Spiral Abyss. Happy farming, and may the RNG gods be ever in your favor! 😎🔥
