Mika looks to be a valuable Cryo support character to Physical damage teams, which are in sore need of a boost. To reach his maximum potential, however, you’ll need to know the Genshin Impact Mika Ascension and Talent materials.

Mika is a new character in the second phase of the Genshin Impact 3.5 banners, so be sure to keep an eye out for where they rank in our Genshin Impact tier list of best characters when they release. Likewise, in Genshin Impact a character is only as good as their build. Luckily for you, we’ll have a Genshin Impact Mika build for you when he’s available. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a head start by collecting all the leaked and rumoured Genshin Impact Mika materials ahead of the Genshin Impact Mika banner release date according to leaks.

The Genshin Impact Mika materials you’ll need, including both Mika Ascension materials and Mika Talent materials, can be found below:

  • Pseudo-Stamens
  • Wolfhook
  • Shivada Jade
  • Recruit’s Insignia, Sergeant’s Insignia, and Lieutenant’s Insignia

Pseudo-Stamens, Wolfhook, Shivada Jade, Recruit’s Insignia, Sergeant’s Insignia, and Lieutenant’s Insignia are all Mika Ascension materials, according to leaks and speculation. Likewise, in terms of Mika Talent materials, Recruit’s Insignia, Sergeant’s Insignia, and Lieutenant’s Insignia, Teachings of Ballad, Guide to Ballad, and Philosophies of Ballad, Mirror of Mushin are the ones you want to get.

There are a few materials that you may be unfamiliar with, especially since some are from Sumeru, so here’s how to get the Genshin Impact Mika materials:

  • Pseudo-Stamens are dropped by the Setekh Wenut boss in the Desert of Hadramaveth in Sumeru and are used as Mika Ascension materials.
  • Wolfhook are a regional specialty item from Wolvendom in Mondstadt and are used as Mika Ascension materials.
  • Mirror of Mushin are dropped by the Scaramouche boss ‘Shouki no Kami, the Prodigal’ Trounce Domain and are used as Mika Talent materials.
  • Teachings of Ballad, Guide to Ballad, and Philosophies of Ballad are obtained from the Forsaken Rift Domain in Mondstadt on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday. Lower quality versions can be combined to create a version of higher quality at a crafting table.
  • Recruit’s Insignia, Sergeant’s Insignia, and Lieutenant’s Insignia can each be obtained from defeating Faui enemies, such as Cicin Mages, Pyro Agents, and Skirmishers. These enemies can be marked on your map by inspecting the item in the character level up screen. Lower quality versions can be combined to create a version of higher quality at a crafting table.
  • Shivada Jade are earned primarily from defeating Cryo bosses, such as the Cryo Revisvine, Cryo Hypostasis, and Maguu Kenki. Lower quality versions can be combined to create a version of higher quality at a crafting table.

Ascending a character will upgrade their HP, ATK, and other important stats, boosting the character’s stats tremendously.
