What is Noctilucous Jade used for in Genshin Impact?

Noctilucous Jade is a type of ore that you can find in some regions in Genshin Impact. Although different types of ores can be used to craft items, the Noctilucous Jade is a material used strictly for ascension.

To harvest them you must break the nodes from which you can get the Noctilucous Jades. Breaking them is easier if hitting with blunt attacks which means using characters that attack with claymores.

These are the characters that need Noctiluscous Jade to ascend:

  • Yanfei
  • Beidou

Since both characters’ ascension requires these ores up until the last level and it takes two days for them to respawn, you may want to farm them consistently to be prepared.
