Kalpalata Lotus Farming Route: All 71 Locations (2026)
The complete Sumeru route for Nahida's ascension material — every lotus, area by area.

Kalpalata Lotus is the Sumeru local specialty needed to ascend Nahida (and a few other characters). Excluding one-time pickups and the Aranara nursery, there are 71 lotuses in the open world, and they respawn every 48 hours. Here's the full route, grouped by area so you can farm efficiently.
The route (71 total)
- Mawtiyima Forest — 7 lotuses (1–7). Start at the southern waypoint and sweep north along the cliff line.
- Gandharva Ville — 6 lotuses (8–13). Circle the village outskirts; check the high roots.
- Vimara Village — 8 lotuses (14–21). Work the riverbanks and the cliffs behind the village.
- Devantaka Mountain — 6 lotuses (22–27). The mountain path loop; glide between ledges.
- Apam Woods — 7 lotuses (28–34). Dense area — follow the giant tree roots upward.
- Yasna Monuments — 14 lotuses (35–48). The biggest cluster; do this area in one dedicated sweep.
- Vissudha Field — 18 lotuses total (49–66), split into two sub-routes. The richest single zone.
- Vanarana — 5 lotuses (67–71). Finish in the dream grove area.

How many do you need?
Taking a character from level 1 to 90 costs 168 Kalpalata Lotuses. At 71 per run with a 48-hour respawn, that's about five farming cycles — roughly ten days of casual farming, or faster if you hop into a friend's world (with permission!) for a second run.
