If you're eager to upgrade Citlali and unlock her full potential, you’ll need to gather a variety of materials to level up both her Ascension and Skills.

In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk you through the necessary materials and where to find them, ensuring you can upgrade Citlali to her maximum potential.

  • 36 Tyrant's Fangs

These materials are dropped by the three Natlan Saurians: Tepetlisaurus, Koholasaurus, and Yumkasaurus. These creatures are native to the Natlan region and can be found in certain areas within the region, so be sure to hunt them down for the necessary Fangs.

Quenepa Berries are often gathered from bushes, so be on the lookout when exploring the region.

The Talisman of the Enigmatic Land is a special material needed for Citlali’s ascension. You can obtain this material by defeating a new boss introduced in Patch 5.3 — Wayward Hermetic Spiritspeaker. As of now, the exact location of this boss is still unknown, but it will be a key part of your progress.
