To Ascend Kinich, you need a local specialty and boss material. The local specialty is the Saurian Claw Succulent, which grows around the Sulfurous Veins and the Children of Echoes. Additionally, you require Overripe Flamegranates, obtained by farming the Gluttonous Yumkasaur Mountain King located in the underground cave of Tequemecan Valley.

Gemstones

x6 Nagadus Emerald Gemstone

As a Dendro character, Kinich requires Nagadus Emerald materials, which can be dropped by various Dendro Normal, World, and Weekly Bosses, including the Jadeplume Terrorshroom and Dendro Hypostasis. Additionally, you can convert materials via the Crafting Table to change any Elemental Gemstones into Dendro-specific ones.

Common Materials

x18 Juvenile Fang

x30 Seasoned Fang

x36 Tyrant’s Fang

Kinich’s common Ascension materials include Fangs dropped by Saurians and Saurian Whelps, which can be found exclusively throughout Natlan. You don’t need to exclusively farm Yumkasauri, as Tepetlisauri and Koholasauri drop the same materials.

Kinich’s Talent Level-up Materials & Cost

Gather 1,652,500 Mora along with the following materials to fully level up all three of Kinich’s Talents to level 10. It’s not essential to max out all his Talents at once, so I recommend collecting these materials gradually as you progress.

You can obtain Kinich’s Talent book materials from the Blazing Ruins Domain in Natlan. Note that the Kindling series is available only on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays, so plan your farming days accordingly.

Common Materials

The common materials for Ascension and Talent are identical, so you will need to farm additional Fangs to level up Kinich’s Talents.

Weekly Boss Material & Crown of Insight

Crown of Insight is essential for leveling up Talents from 9 to 10, and is a rare reward available through major events each update. You’ll need these only if you plan to level Kinich’s Talents to level 10. Kinich requires Denial and Judgment as his Weekly Boss material, which can be obtained from The Knave in the Scattered Ruins Domain in Mont Esus East.
