Crystal core. basic information

Crystal butterflies (when collected, crystal cores are obtained) is one of the "living" materials you can collect in Genshin Impact. The resource is required to craft several items, the most important of which is Thick Resin. Finding Crystal Cores isn't easy if you don't know where to look. There is a chance that you already have a few in your inventory, but if you want to farm them (collect a large number), you need to create a good farming route. Here's where to find Crystal Cores in Genshin Impact.

Catching a crystal butterfly can be difficult, as they fly away quickly.

Where to find Crystal Cores

Crystal Cores can be found all over Teyvat, but the best places to farm are in the Li Yue region, in a few specific areas: Guyun Stone Forest, at the foot of Aozang Mountain, western Bishui Valley, Tianheng Mountain. You can find a map of each region, as well as a recommended route for farming crystal cores, below.

Guyun stone forest

The easiest way to find crystal cores is in Guyun Stone Forest. Teleport to the Guyun Realm dungeon and you will see about six crystal butterflies nearby. It will be difficult to collect everyone at once, as they are very shy and fly away at the first danger. Run around, collect a few, then walk to the side, there will be an arch to your left, behind it there are 2 more crystal butterflies on the path, then return to the original location, the butterflies you did not collect will return to their place.

In total, there are 10 crystal butterflies in this location, but don't waste time trying to collect every last one, it's easier to move to another location.

Mount Aozang and Bishui Valley

Another great place to farm Crystal Cores is at the foot of Mount Aozang. Start in the Clear Water and Mountain Cave dungeon and move towards the peninsula. Here you can find up to 9 Crystal Butterflies and Crystal Cores. As soon as you finish at the mountain, teleport to the point indicated on the map, this is the Bishui Valley. There are 4 more crystal cores in this area.

Mount Tianheng

You can then head west from Li Yue Harbor to Tianheng Mountain. Teleport to the mountain and glide down to the northwest of it. You can find 5 to 6 crystal butterflies there. Then teleport to the point indicated on the map, this is Lisha's Suburb. There are 4-5 more crystal cores at the entrance to the waterfall cave.

These are all the best areas to collect Crystal Cores. Hope this guide helps you! In total, you can collect up to 34 Crystal Butterflies along this route at a time. Taking into account the fact that you can have a maximum of 5 units in your inventory thick resin, you will have enough of this for almost a week! Write in the comments below if you need additional farming spots.

Using the Crystal Core

The main reason you need Crystal Cores or Crystal Butterflies is to craft Thick Resin, which allows you to get extra rewards in dungeons. But this is not the only interesting recipe where they are used.
