Alex Rodriguez Genshin Impact 6.2: Durin Ascension & Talent Guide — All Key Materials & Banners
Genshin Impact 6.2 has redefined the playable roster with the highly anticipated arrival of Durin, the sword-wielding Pyro unit now fully integrated into Teyvat's meta. As banner competition heats up and resource priorities shift, understanding Durin’s full ascension and talent material routes is essential for travelers who want optimal progression in patch 6.2’s first and second phases.
Why Durin’s Banner Matters in 6.2
Durin headlines a limited banner phase launching alongside the 6.2 Simulanka storyline wrap-up. For F2P and low-spend players specifically, Durin not only introduces new material farm locations, but also serves as a pivotal Pyro slot in several emerging Mondstadt-centric team comps. Key rewards, unique synergy with Ballad talent books, and time-gated local specialties raise the stakes for early preparedness.

Team Synergy & Build Brief
Durin’s kit (sword, Pyro, Mondstadt affinity) aligns strongly with:
– Main DPS: Pyro-centric teams (Bennett, Xiangling, C6 Chevreuse)
– Support: Units amplifying Pyro reactions (Kazuha, Sucrose, Venti)
– Budget/F2P: Free Xiangling, Collei/Sucrose, Layla shield.
Consult Durin Team Comps in Genshin Impact 6.2: Best Synergies & F2P for specifics by artifact and weapon budget.
Preparation Checklist: Prioritize Daily/Weekly Grind
- Scout: All major Mondstadt Frostlamp routes every server reset
- Clear: Weekly bosses (Super-Heavy Landrover, Lord of Eroded Primal Fire, Azhdaha when Pyro)
- Run: Forsaken Rift domain (Wednesday/Saturday/Sunday only)
- Sweep: Fatui Oprichniki, target higher world levels for best drops
- Budget: Mora and level books each phase — totals above
After reaching max ascension and triple-crown goals, watch for potential rerun banners or synergy buffs in the next patch.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: Are any ascension/talent items event-locked or missable?
A: All core materials are permanent. Crown of Insight may only be available during limited events.
Q: Do pity rolls on the Durin banner carry over to the next?
A: Standard Genshin Impact pity mechanics apply: event/festival banners are isolated. Track your own pulls for optimal planning.
Q: Which item bottlenecks most players?
A: Frostlamp Flower (route density, time-gated vendor), Eroded Sunfire (weekly lock), and high-tier Warrants (due to RNG).
Q: Are there any platform or server region differences?
A: Dates/times may vary slightly by server (Asia/NA/EU launch windows); otherwise, material locations are global.
