Where to Find Rainbowdrop Crystals in Genshin Impact

Rainbowdrop Crystals appear as mineable nodes throughout Nod-Krai. To break them, you’ll need Physical or Geo attacks, and each node can yield up to three ores.

Below are all the major farming routes and sub-areas where you can find them:

Route 1: Hiisi Island (23 Nodes)

The Hiisi Island area contains 23 Rainbowdrop Crystal nodes, making it one of the best spots to farm quickly. If you need a good stockpile in a short amount of time, prioritize this route first.

Route 2: Paha Isle (10 Nodes + Hidden Cave)

• Surface nodes: 10 Rainbowdrop Crystal locations are scattered across Paha Isle.
• Teleport access: You only need to unlock two Teleport Waypoints to farm all of them efficiently.
• Hidden cave: Paha Isle also has a special underground cavern containing four additional ores. Look for the cave entrance at the route marker and follow the path inside.

Route 3: Lempo Isle – Nasha Town & Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop (30 Ores + Cave)

The Lempo Isle sub-area is packed with Rainbowdrop Crystals, offering around 30 ores in total. Due to the density of nodes, the farming route here is divided into two paths:

• Nasha Town nodes
• Clink-Clank Krumkake Craftshop nodes

Additionally, you’ll find a hidden underground cave near the Craftshop, marked by white arrows on the map. Inside, there are three more ores waiting to be mined.

Route 4: Blue Amber Lake, Eye of Kritti & Nothing Passage (26 Ores + Multiple Caves)

This final farming route covers multiple sub-areas, totaling around 26 ores:

• Blue Amber Lake
• Eye of Kritti
• Nothing Passage

Special locations:

• Near the Starsand Shoal sub-area in Lempo Isle, you’ll find an underground cavern containing four ores.
• The Eye of Kritti sub-area has a second hidden cave that can be unlocked through the Whisper Beneath the Waves World Quest, containing three additional ores.

Farming Tips for Rainbowdrop Crystals

• Use Claymore or Geo characters like Noelle, Itto, or Ningguang to break nodes faster.
• Always check for underground caves, as they contain extra ores not visible on the surface.
• Prioritize Hiisi Island if you need a fast farming session.
• Complete the Whisper Beneath the Waves quest to unlock the hidden Eye of Kritti cavern.

Rainbowdrop Crystals are an essential resource for progression in Genshin Impact’s Nod-Krai region. By following these farming routes across Hiisi Island, Paha Isle, and Lempo Isle, you can easily stock up on ores for weapon blueprints and upgrades.

If you’re short on time, Route 1 (Hiisi Island) is the fastest option, but to maximize your haul, make sure to explore the hidden caves scattered across Nod-Krai.
