Philanemo Mushrooms in Genshin Impact are a vital resource if you want to ascend characters like Barbara, Klee, and Mona. They’re found in an unexpected location, however.
Philanemo Mushrooms in Genshin Impact location
Philanemo Mushrooms in Genshin Impact are some of the first resources you might come across. They’re located on building walls in Mondstadt’s main city and Springvale, a village south across the lake.
This resource clings onto walls. You’ll find the majority of them on the windmills of both locations. They’re typically near moss, and each windmill has around three to four of them. Once all of the windmills have been inspected, look around the town’s buildings. You may need Venti‘s air jump to get to these spots, as they can be hard to climb on due to how the houses are structured.
What are Philanemo Mushrooms used for?
This resource is used to help ascend characters in Genshin Impact, like the Clearwater Jade. For example, for Mona to reach above Level 40, she’ll need 10 of them alongside three Varunada Lazurite Fragments, two Cleansing Hearts, and 15 Whopperflower Nectar samples.
Once they’ve ascended, you may be able to get rewards for your trouble. Head to the character screen again and press right on your D-Pad. The PC button should be displayed next to the star level.
Once Mona has ascended to Level 50, she’ll gain one Acquaint Fate that can be used for a Wish. It’s a good incentive to keep leveling up your characters and ascending them, even if they’re undesirable, like Aloy. Sorry, Horizon fans.
