Ascension and Talent materials for Sandrone.
Sandrone is a 5-Star Cryo character who is likely being added to Genshin Impact during version 6.7.
While Sandrone should feature as a boosted 5-Star character on her Banner in version 6.7, she will eventually return to Genshin Impact at some point in the future when the Banner schedule cycles back to her.
If you want to prepare for her, we’ve listed reliable leaks of Sandrone’s Ascension materials and Talent materials so you can level her up to her full potential right away. To understand how you might play her, we’ve also detailed what we know about Sandrone’s kit and Constellations.
Keep in mind that this is leaked beta information, so Sandrone’s materials and kit might change upon her official release.

Sandrone kit
Sandrone is a 5-Star Cryo character who uses a claymore, and keeping in mind that this is leaked beta information from honeyhunterworld that could change upon Sandrone’s official release, and all of the percentages mentioned below are based on Level 1 Skills, here’s a summary of Sandrone’s kit in Genshin Impact:
- Element: Cryo.
- Rarity: 5-Star.
- Weapon: Claymore.
- Normal Attack: Formule Phenomenale: Self-Evident Proposition.
- Elemental Skill: Formule Phenomenale: Differential Analysis.
- Elemental Burst: Formule Phenomenale: Q.E.D..
- Passive one: Light of Rationalisme — When your party members trigger Superconduct, it will be changed to Stellar-Conduct, and your party members’ Base Stellar-Conduct damage will be increased based on Sandrone’s attack; with every 100 attack she has, increasing the Base Stellar-Conduct damage by 0.7%. The maximum increase that can be gained this way is 14%. Additionally, when Sandrone is within a Polestar Field, she will enter the Radiance: Stellar-Conduct state.
- Passive two: Archaic Calculation Engine — Radiance Stellar-Conduct: When using Sandrone’s Elemental Skill, if Fagio’s Decoding Power is greater than 50, the second Prism Shot fired by Fagio at nearby opponents will deal 400% of its original damage as Fagio’s Decoding Power is decreased. Additionally, for every 10 points of Decoding Power Fagio loses, it gains one stack of Refined Tactics for 60 seconds (max 10 stacks). When Sandrone uses her Elemental Burst while in the Radiance: Stellar-Conduct state, all stacks of Refined Tactics are cleared, causing the Convective Inhibition Ray to deal (100% + (no. of stacks cleared ×5))% of its original damage.
- Passive three: A Lady’s Code of Conduct — Radiance Stellar-Conduct: Increases Sandrone’s Elemental Mastery based on her attack. Every 100 attack will increase her Elemental Mastery by eight. The maximum increase she can gain this way is 160.
- Passive four: A Caucus Prelude and a Long Tale — When Sandrone is in the party, you will gain additional snack rewards after turning in your Daily Commissions with Katheryne.
Sandrone Normal Attack — Formule Phenomenale: Self-Evident Proposition
Sandrone performs up to three consecutive strikes if tapping the normal attack button. Holding it down instead makes Sandrone consume a certain amount of Stamina to perform an upward thrust.
Holding the normal attack button down will summon the Facilitatrice Automatisee Generaliste Interactive et Omnitache, thankfully shortened to Fagio. It can switch to Decoding Mode, in which it will unleash a sweeping fire attack in front of it and fire condensed beams that deal AOE Cryo damage. If Radiance Stellar-Conduct is active, then the damage dealt by these beams will be considered Stellar-Conduct damage.
Fagio’s Decoding Power will continuously increase during this mode and firing those beams will increase its Decoding Power. When this power reaches 100 points, Fagio will switch to Power Overdrive Mode.
In Power Overdrive Mode, Fagio will attack opponents with longer intervals. These attacks deal Cryo damage and Fagio is unable to switch back to Decoding Mode. Power Overdrive Mode will end when Decoding Power slips beneath 50.
When Fiago isn’t in Decoding Mode, its Decoding Power will gradually decrease. If Sandrone is off-field, she will focus on maintaining Fagio and this causes the Decoding Power to decrease at 300% the original rate.
As with most plunging attacks, Sandrone plunges from mid-air and strikes the ground below for AOE Damage on impact, damaging opponents upon landing.
Sandrone Elemental Skill — Formule Phenomenale: Differential Analysis
Using this attack causes Sandrone to board the Tea Party Tactical Assault Hovermech and hover forward for six seconds, with her being able to control the direction of the craft during this time. If you press Sprint, 10 Stamina will be consumed and Sandrone will enter a high-speed hover mode where she moves faster at the cost of 15 Stamina per second.
If any enemies are nearby when Sandrone starts hovering, she will summon a Prismatic Resonance Cannon and fire two Prism Shots at any opponents who haven’t cooled down yet. These attacks will deal Cryo damage. If Radiance Stellar-Conduct is active, the second Prism Shot will deal Cryo damage which is considered Stellar-Conduct damage.
Sandrone can also repair Fagio on this craft, which causes Decoding Power to decrease by 40 points at the beginning of the ride. It will continue to fall by 10 points for every 0.1 seconds Sandrone flies about.
Sandrone Elemental Burst — Formule Phenomenale: Q.E.D.
Sandrone summons a large number of Prismatic Resonance cannons and fires on her enemies from the front with a Convective Inhibition Ray, which deals AOE Cryo damage. If Radiance Stellar-Conduct is active, this ray will deal AOE Cryo damage that’s considered Stellar-Conduct damage.
Sandrone Talent materials
To get the most out of using Sandrone, you will have to level her skills up by using Talent materials, which vary from character-to-character.
With the latest beta information sourced from honeyhunterworld, for Sandrone, it looks like you’ll need to farm a lot of Drive Shaft and Vagrancy materials (if you don’t already have them) to fully upgrade her capabilities.
As Sandrone has three Talents, you will have to spend three times the Talent materials listed below to fully upgrade all of her abilities, which we’ve also detailed below the table.
Here’s what Sandrone Talent materials you need to improve one of her abilities:
| Sandrone Talent level | Sandrone Talent materials | Mora cost |

Version 6.6 Phase 1 sees the new 5-Star Nicole and a rerun of Durin. There’s also a new 4-Star character, Prune. So don’t forget to redeem new codes for Primogems to help pull them, and check out our regularly updated tier list. You need luck from the Pity and 50/50 systems to Wish with Fate for characters on Banners, and you always need the right Adventure Rank for events. Elsewhere, we have tips and tricks for beginners.
Sandrone Ascension materials
Just like Talents, you need to use Sandrone Ascension materials to upgrade her health, attack, defence, and critical hit effectiveness.
Based off the same honeyhunterworld beta leaks, it looks like you’ll need to farm a lot of Subdetection Unit and Drive Shaft materials for Sandrone (if you don’t already have them) to fully upgrade her capabilities.
Unlike Talent materials, you only need to spend the below Ascension materials once to fully raise Sandrone to her highest character level. There is also Acquaint Fate rewarded for reaching certain Ascension levels. You can spend this Fate on the standard and beginner Banners to Wish for characters and weapons.
Here’s what Sandrone Ascension materials and Mora you need to upgrade her for each Ascension level:
| Sandrone Ascension level | Sandrone Ascension materials | Mora cost | Ascension reward |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level 20 | x1 Shivada Jade Sliver, x3 Subdetection Unit, x3 Broken Drive Shaft | 20,000 | x1 Acquaint Fate |
| Level 40 | x3 Shivada Jade Fragment, x2 Plume of the Fallen Watcher, x10 Subdetection Unit, x15 Broken Drive Shaft | 40,000 | None |
| Level 50 | x6 Shivada Jade Fragment, x4 Plume of the Fallen Watcher, x20 Subdetection Unit, x12 Reinforced Drive Shaft | 60,000 | x1 Acquaint Fate |
| Level 60 | x3 Shivada Jade Chunk, x8 Plume of the Fallen Watcher, x30 Subdetection Unit, x18 Reinforced Drive Shaft | 80,000 | None |
| Level 70 | x6 Shivada Jade Chunk, x12 Plume of the Fallen Watcher, x45 Subdetection Unit, x12 Precision Drive Shaft | 100,000 | x1 Acquaint Fate |
| Level 80 | x6 Shivada Jade Gemstone, x20 Plume of the Fallen Watcher, x60 Subdetection Unit, x24 Precision Drive Shaft | 120,000 | None |
In total, here’s all the Ascension Materials you need for Sandrone in Genshin Impact:
- x1 Shivada Jade Sliver
- x6 Shivada Jade Gemstone
- x9 Shivada Jade Fragment
- x9 Shivada Jade Chunk
- x18 Broken Drive Shaft
- x30 Reinforced Drive Shaft
- x36 Precision Drive Shaft
- x46 Plume of the Fallen Watcher
- x168 Subdetection Unit
- 420,000 Mora
Once again, this is leaked beta information, so Sandrone’s materials could change upon her official release.
Sandrone Constellations
By getting duplicates of Sandrone from wishing on her Banner, you will receive her Stella Fortuna. This material allows you to unlock Constellation levels, with each upgrade either improving an existing Talent or Passive ability.
With thanks to honeyhunterworld again for sourcing this leaked beta information, here are all of Sandrone’s Constellations in Genshin Impact:
- Morrow After the Golden Dusk (C1): When in Decoding Mode, Fagio’s Decoding Power increases at a 50% lower rate, and all party members deal 30% increased Stellar-Conduct damage.
- An Heiress Gazed Into the Looking-Glass (C2): Radiance Stellar-Conduct: Increases Charged Attack condensed beam damage by 100% of Sandrone’s attack. Also, each time a beam is fired, damage dealt by all condensed beams fired during this Decoding Mode period will be further increased by 40% of Sandrone’s attack (max three stacks).
- Refuse the Wake of Dusk, the Moonlit Yoke (C3): Increases the Level of Sandrone’s Normal Attack by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
- In Knowledge Lies the World’s True Ground (C4): When Sandrone deals Stellar-Conduct damage, she will also summon an extra Prismatic Resonance Cannon to fire off a coordinated attack which deals Cryo damage at 125% of her attack. This damage is considered Stellar-Conduct damage , and the effect can occur once every four seconds.
- Of All Beside, She Takes No Part (C5): Increases the Level of Sandrone’s Elemental Burst by three, with a maximum upgrade level of 15.
- Narcissus Wakes, Her Eyes Upon the Dawn (C6): When Fagio fires a condensed beam for the third time while in Decoding Mode, the beam becomes a more powerful Condensed Cluster Beam that fires continuously. This beam will deal up to four additional instances of AOE Cryo damage at 75% of Sandrone’s attack on top of any subsequent original beam fired. Radiance: Stellar-Conduct: The Condensed Cluster Beam will instead deal four additional instances of AOE Cryo damage at 50% of Sandrone’s attack. This damage is considered Stellar-Conduct damage. Additionally, all Stellar-Conduct damage dealt by Sandrone is elevated by 20%.
Good luck levelling up Sandrone in Genshin Impact!
