The esteemed Chief Justice of Fontaine, Neuvillette, has received his first Genshin Impact banner in Version 4.1! In the narrative developments introduced by the Fontaine Archon Quest, Neuvillette's power stands as a testament to his unparalleled might. As a staunch guardian of Fontaine's "justice", he astonished everyone by swiftly incapacitating the mischievous Fatui Harbinger, Childe, with a single resounding blow on the grand stage of the Opera Epiclese.
Neuvillette’s incredible power is directly mirrored in his ability kit, giving players the ability to unleash devastating Hydro attacks. If you’re looking to start farming for his Ascension and Talent Materials ahead of Neuvillette's banner release, we’ve got you covered with our comprehensive Neuvillette pre-farming guide here!
Neuvillette release date
As revealed in the recent Genshin Impact Version 4.1 Livestream, Neuvillette will be a 5-star Hydro Catalyst DPS unit. You’ll get the chance to invite Neuvillette to your roster in Version 4.1. Version 4.1 was released on 27 September 2023.
Neuvillette Ascension materials
With the launch of Version 4.1, all of Neuvillette's materials have been unlocked. There are plenty of materials that you must farm to fully ascend the Iudex of Fontaine, so let's get right to it!
Varunada Lazurite
As is customary for the Hydro units of Genshin Impact, Neuvillette requires Varunada Lazurite crystals for ascension.
You can obtain Varunada Lazurite crystals by defeating Genshin Impact bosses such as the Rhodeia of Loch and the Hydro Hypostatsis. Additionally, you can convert crystals of other elements into Hydro crystals using the Crafting Table and some Dust of Azoth.
In order to fully ascend Neuvillette, you will need to farm the following:
- Varunada Lazurite Sliver x1
- Varunada Lazurite Fragments x9
- Varunada Lazurite Chunks x9
- Varunada Lazurite Gemstones x6
Fontemer Aberrant drops: Transoceanic Pearls
Even though these marine creatures from Fontaine are downright adorable and oftentimes harmless, sadly, you have to take them down and gather their drops for the Chief Justice of Fontaine.
You can often spot them underwater or near bodies of water in Fontaine. Due to the extensive underwater regions in Fontaine, you'll come across numerous Fontemer Aberrants spread across the map.
To reach level 90 with Neuvillette, make sure to accrue the following:
- Transoceanic Pearls x18
- Transoceanic Chunks x30
- Xenochromatic Crystals x36
Millennial Pearl Seahorse drop: Fontemer Unihorn
The Fontemer Unihorn is an Ascension material dropped by an unreleased boss called the Millennial Pearl Seahorse. It's a jagged, purple horn shaped like a bolt of lightning, with wisps of light surrounding it.
Millennial Pearl Seahorse will make its debut in the upcoming Version 4.1 update.
- In order to fully ascend Neuvillette, you will need to acquire 46 Fontemer Unihorn

Lumitoile
Neuvillette’s local speciality Ascension material goes by the name Lumitoile. It's purplish-blue in colour and resembles a starfish.
Lumitoile has been made harvestable in the Genshin Impact Version 4.1 update.
- To fully ascend Neuvillette, you will need to harvest 168 Lumitoile

- Transoceanic Pearls x18
- Transoceanic Chunks x66
- Xenochromatic Crystals x93
Pale Forgotten Glory: Equity Series
The Genshin Impact Fontaine 4.0 update introduced a couple of Talent Book Domains. Among them is the Pale Forgotten Glory domain, offering players the chance to obtain the Equity Series Talent Books for Neuvillette.
Pale Forgotten Glory is situated underwater, to the south of Fontaine's Salacia Plain. Equity Series books can be obtained in the Pale Forgotten Glory on Mondays, Thursdays, and Sundays.
To max Neuvillette’s Talents, you will need to collect the following amount of Equity Talent Books:
- Teachings of Equity x9

- Philosophies of Equity x114
Trounce Domain: The Realm of Beginnings
The weekly boss, Guardian of Apep’s Oasis, is located in a Trounce Domain between the Desert of Hadramaveth and the Girdle of the Sands in the Sumeru desert.
The domain, The Realm of Beginnings, will only be available after you’ve completed Nahida’s second Story Quest.
Once Guardian of Apep’s Oasis is defeated, it will drop Everamber, which is a talent material to level up Neuvillette’s Talents.
- You will need 18 Everamber to max all Neuvillette’s abilities, 6 for each Talent
That was everything you needed to know to kickstart your Ascension and Talent material reserves for Neuvillette!
