Which Characters Need Pyro Hypostasis Drops in Genshin Impact?

The Pyro Hypostasis is a formidable world boss in Genshin Impact, residing in the Kannazuka region of Inazuma. Defeating it is crucial for ascending certain Pyro characters, as it drops Agnidus Agate Gemstones and its unique character ascension material, Smoldering Pearl. Understanding which characters need these resources is essential for efficient character progression.

The characters that require Smoldering Pearl and Agnidus Agate dropped by the Pyro Hypostasis for ascension are:

• Yoimiya
• Dehya
• Lyney

These three characters exclusively require the Smoldering Pearl dropped by the Pyro Hypostasis to ascend beyond certain levels. You’ll also need to farm the Pyro Hypostasis for the necessary Agnidus Agate Gemstones, alongside common enemy drops, and local specialties to fully maximize their potential. Knowing this beforehand will save you valuable Resin and time in the long run.

Understanding the Pyro Hypostasis and Its Drops

Before diving into the FAQs, let’s reiterate the importance of the Pyro Hypostasis. It’s not just about the boss itself; it’s about the resources it provides. Specifically:

• Agnidus Agate Gemstones (Slivers, Fragments, Chunks, and Gemstones): These are essential for all Pyro characters for their ascension. While other bosses and events can also provide Agnidus Agate, the Pyro Hypostasis is a reliable source.
• Smoldering Pearl: This is the critical material that ONLY Yoimiya, Dehya, and Lyney need. You cannot obtain this anywhere else.
• Various Artifacts: Defeating the Pyro Hypostasis offers a chance to obtain Gladiator’s Finale and Wanderer’s Troupe artifacts, both highly sought-after sets for many characters.
• Character EXP Materials and Mora: Like all world bosses, defeating the Pyro Hypostasis grants Character EXP Materials and Mora, valuable resources for leveling up your characters.
