As you start exploring Theosir in Xenoblade Chronicles 2, you’ll come across a cracked wall in the Theospiti Temple. Behind this wall is an alter that requires 100 offerings to unlock the Sealed Core Crystal that this temple enshrines. Inside the Sealed Core Crystal is a powerful Blade, Herald, that is worth going through this struggle to acquire. This guide runs you through the best way to farm Herald’s sacrificial materials in Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

Fastest way to farm for Herald’s materials in Xenoblade Chronicles 2

The fastest way to farm Herald’s materials in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is to go for one particular material calledPoison Flash. You can offer nine different types of materials to this shrine to unlock Herald, and each material counts for one offering, so you need tofarm 100 items in total.

Poison Flash is the easiest material to acquire, but you need many Blades with theIchthyology field skillbefore you can get it efficiently. These skills can stack, allowing you to find rarer items and get more drops from Collection Points.
