Flins promises to be a game-changer with his unique Lunar-Charged DPS kit, and being prepared is the key to unlocking his full potential. By planning your farming now, you’ll be ready to ascend him and max his talents the day his banner goes live.
Who is Flins?
Flins is a 5-star Electro Polearm DPS, expected to debut in the second half of the Luna I banners. His kit revolves around Lunar-Charged reactions, a new damage mechanic, along with his signature Manifest Flame form and a powerful Elemental Burst.
This unique playstyle has made him one of the most talked-about characters in recent leaks and official previews, sending players rushing to stockpile materials before his banner drops.
Ascension Materials: What You’ll Need
To raise Flins to level 90, you’ll need both familiar resources and new items from Nod-Krai. Here’s the full list:
- Vajrada Amethyst (Sliver, Fragment, Chunk, Gemstone) – Standard Electro ascension material, dropped by Electro Hypostasis, Thunder Manifestation, and the new Nod-Krai boss, the Knuckle Duckle.
- Precision Kuuvahki Stamping D-uck-ie (x46) – Exclusive boss drop from the Knuckle Duckle. Stock up resin for repeated fights.
- Frostlamp Flower (x168) – Flins’ local specialty. Found across Nod-Krai, especially in Eye of Kratti, Barrowmoss Barrens, and Final Night Cemetery. Keep in mind these flowers respawn every 48 hours, so you may need to hop into friends’ worlds.
- Broken / Reinforced / Precision Drive Shafts – Dropped by Landcruisers, new automaton enemies in Nod-Krai. Track them via the Adventurer’s Guide.
Talent Materials: Leveling Flins’ Skills
To unleash Flins’ full DPS potential, you’ll also need his Talent upgrade items:
- Teachings / Guide / Philosophies of Vagrancy – New Talent Books from the Lightless Capital Domain (available on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays).
- Broken / Reinforced / Precision Drive Shafts – Shared with ascension needs, so expect heavy farming.
- Ascended Sample: Queen (x6) – Weekly Boss drop from the Unresolved Chess Game Trounce Domain in Nod-Krai. Dream Solvent can help convert unwanted drops.
- Crown of Insight (x1–3) – Required to max talents. Earnable from limited events or by leveling the Fountain of Nod-Krai.
Smart Pre-Farming Strategies
Want Flins ready to go the moment he arrives? Here are key steps to take now:
- Focus on Frostlamp Flowers – With 168 needed and slow respawn, this is your biggest time sink. Farm every two days and coordinate with friends.
- Weekly Boss Runs – Clear the Unresolved Chess Game domain each week, and don’t forget to use Dream Solvent.
- Domain Planning – Mark Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays for Talent Book farming at the Lightless Capital.
- Enemy Routes – Use the Adventurer’s Guide to efficiently hunt Landcruisers for Drive Shaft drops.
