How to Make Condensed Resin in Genshin Impact

Condensed resin is one of the most important resources in higher levels of Genshin Impact and is also relatively hard to come by. If you are wondering how to increase your resin reserves, we are here to help.

In this guide, we will provide instructions on where to find resin or how to make condensed resin yourself. We will also answer some of the most common questions related to resin usage in Genshin Impact.

How to Make Condensed Resin in Genshin Impact

First, let’s take a look at how to craft condensed resin in Genshin Impact. To do that, follow the steps below:

1. Get the condensed resin recipe. Achieve a level 3 Liyue reputation to get the blueprint as a reward.
   
2. Navigate to the “precious items” menu in your inventory.
   
3. Find the recipe blueprint and craft condensed resin – you will need 100 mora, 40 pieces of original resin, and 1 crystal core.

How to Get Resin From Other Sources in Genshin Impact

Condensed resin can only be crafted from original resin. However, the ways of getting original resin varies. You can trade Primogems to get 60 pieces of resin up to six times a day. To do that, follow the steps below:

1. Earn Primogems by completing quests or purchase them.
   
2. From the main menu, navigate to “Shop”.
   
3. On the left sidebar, select “Paimon’s Bargains”.
   
4. Select “Purchase with Primogems” at the top of your screen.
   
5. Select “Original Resin” for 60 pieces of resin.
   
6. With every purchase, the price increases. The first time, you will pay 50 Primogems, second and third times – 100 Primogems, fourth – 150, and two final refills will set you back 200 Primogems.
7. Original resin can then be used to craft condensed resin.
   
   

Another way to get more resin is to use fragile resin. To do that, follow the instructions below:

1. You will get fragile resin as a reward at certain Adventure rank level-ups (12, 14, 16, 18, 20-49).
2. Optionally, fragile resin can be purchased for 980 genesis crystals once a week.
3. Use fragile resin to restore 60 pieces of original resin.
4. Original resin can then be used to craft condensed resin.

How to Farm Crystal Core in Genshin Impact

You need Crystal core to craft condensed resin. You can find it by following the instructions below:

1. Visit the Liyue or Monstadt regions, preferably at night.
   
2. Hunt for glowing butterflies – blue in Monstadt and yellow in Liyue.
   
3. When you get close to a butterfly, pick it up like any other object.
   
4. The butterfly will turn into crystal core.
   

FAQ

Now that you know how to replenish your resin reserves, you may want to get more detailed information related to this item. Read this section to find out everything you need to know about resin in Genshin Impact.

How Many Condensed Resin Can I Store?

You can only store up to three condensed resin at a time, or 120 original resin. However, you can hold as many fragile resin pieces as you wish. There is no sense to craft condensed resin in advance – craft it only when you need it. Don’t spend fragile resin every time you need to get original resin, since you only get one or two fragile resin pieces at each level up, and it can be only purchased once a week. If you use it wisely, you will always have a quick way to replenish your resin reserves when you’re out of Primogems.
