Below is an outline of every possible way to get Agnidus Agate inGenshin Impact, as well as which characters are going to need some of it to reach their highest potential.

EveryGenshin Impactcharacter lucky enough to be blessed with a Pyro Vision will need some Agnidus Agate if they want to ascend. At higher ascension levels, better quality Agate is needed, as outlined in this chart:

At this time, there are quite a few Pyro characters inGenshin Impact.Here’s a look at all of them:

Genshin Impact Bosses That Drop Agnidus Agate
Among the many ways of obtaining Agnidus Agate, the most reliable for farming large quantities of it will be defeating bosses. Only some of the standard bosses are capable of dropping the Pyro stone, though:
Emperor of Fire and Iron
Tenebrous Papilla
Lava Dragon Statue
In general, the quality of Agate that bosses can drop depends on their level. Here’s a brief glance at which level a boss needs to be to drop certain gems:
0+
36+
2+
41+
4+
62+
6+
83+
Gemstones
*While the Primo Geovishap can always drop Prithiva Topaz, it will only drop the other elemental gems when infused with their corresponding element. This means, for the Vishap to drop Agnidus Agate, it will need to be fought and defeated while it’s infusing Pyro.
Genshin Impact Weekly Bosses That Drop Agnidus Agate
Along with the standard bosses, some of the trounce challenge bosses (and Andrius) can drop Agnidus Agate, as well. They are:
(Wolf of the North Challenge)
(Beneath the Dragon-Queller)
The King and Queen
(The Game Before the Gate)
Like the standard bosses, the higher the level a weekly boss is, the better quality gems they can drop. Most weekly bosses follow this table, but Andrius is a bit different and listed separately.
Domain levels
Andrius levels
39+
42+
63+
III, IV
84+
*Azhdaha is similar to the Primo Geovishap in that he can only drop the elemental gems that match his infused elements when fought (save for Prithiva Topaz, which he can always drop). However, Azhdaha infuses two elements per fight instead of just one, and they’re determined by a weekly rotation.
The player can see which elements Azhdaha is infusing that week by looking for the elemental symbols on the door to his trounce domain before fighting him.
Other Ways to Get Agnidus Agate in Genshin Impact
Though boss fights are typically the most reliable way to farm Agnidus Agate inGenshin Impact, there are many other sources, which this section will go over.
Daily Commissions
Every day, players will be assigned four daily commissions by the Adventurers' Guild. By completing all four, they can earn a bonus reward, which can be collected by visiting Katheryne at any branch of the Guild.
These bonus reward packages will include a variety of rewards and XP, including elemental gem Slivers. It’s random which ones the player receives, but Agnidus Agate will be amongst them, of course.
Crafting
At a crafting bench, lower quality gems can be crafted into higher quality gems at a 3:1 ratio.
+
300
=
1x Fragment
900
1x Chunk
2,700
1x Gemstone
This equates to 27 Slivers for a single Gemstone. That’s hefty, but it’s a good way to get the quality a player needs, and they’ll probably find themselves using this crafting technique a lot.
Conversion
Another function available at crafting benches is conversion, which allows the player to turn items into others. This requiresDust of Azoth, which can be bought for Stardust in Paimon’s Bargains. It costs 5 Stardust for 10 counts of Dust of Azoth.
Using this conversion technique, players can turn one elemental gem into another. For example, a Varunada Lazurite Sliver can be converted into an Agnidus Agate Sliver.
Higher-level gems need more Dust of Azoth to be converted, as shown here:
Gem level
Dust of Azoth required
9
Gemstone
27
Agnidus Agate can be converted from Prithiva Topaz, Vayuda Turquoise, Nagadus Emerald, Shivada Jade, Varunada Lazurite, or Vajrada Amethyst.
Parametric Transformer
The Parametric Transformer is a fascinating device that allows players to convert materials into special items, including elemental gems.
Which fuel they use in the Transformer does not guarantee a particular output, but it does seem like some results are more likely with some fuel types. These materials are found to have a high likelihood of producing elemental ascension gems:
Crystal Core
Electro Crystal
The Parametric Transformer produces “sets” of items, and multiple of the same set can be created. The “sets” that include elemental ascension gems will either have two Slivers or one Fragment.
Events
The last option for finding Agnidus Agate is through time-limited events. Though not always, events often have elemental ascension gems available in their prize shops or as rewards for meeting certain criteria.
