As of Genshin Impact 2.3, there are 44 Sango Pearl locations available in Inazuma. This local specialty was released in Version 2.1, along with Watatsumi and Seirai Island.
At first, players may mistake it for the Loach Pearl. Both Sango and Loach Pearl have a similar circular shape. However, Loach Pearl has a gray/blue-ish color and is obtainable by catching Loaches. Meanwhile, Sango Pearl is pink-ish and can be collected from the corals of Watatsumi Island. Furthermore, unlike the Sango ones, Loach Pearl currently has no purpose in Genshin Impact.
Sango Pearl Locations In Genshin Impact
Sango Pearl is an exclusive material found in Watatsumi Island. They’re mostly found under the reefs of Sangonomiya Shrine, but there are other locations as well.
These pearls are wrapped around purple coral. The coral will remain intact after Travelers harvest the item.
Suigetsu Pool
Suigetsu Pool is a domain northeast of Watatsumi Island. The Sango Pearls can be found under the building, along the dark hallways of the ruins.
This location is notable for its one-time domain. After finishing it, Travelers will be rewarded with:
- Primogems x40 Adventure EXP x500 Electro Sigil x5 Guide to Transience x2 Hero’s Wit x3 Mystic Enhancement Ore x5 Mora x30000
North Of Watatsumi Island
Beneath Sangonomiya Shrine, players can find the Sango Pearl along the shore of the reefs. By using the Teleport Waypoint, glide north to collect the pearls in a straight line.
South Of Watatsumi Island
Meanwhile, in the southern part of Watatsumi, the Sango Pearls are scattered around the area. Just like before, they’re mostly located near water.
Heart Of Watatsumi
To collect the Sango Pearl in this spot, Travelers must first finish The Moon-Bathed Deep World Quest. After gaining the Spirit Pearl of the Eye, Fang, Fin, and Tail of Watatsumi, players can finally unlock the seal to the Heart.
Inside this secluded cave, there are eight Sango Pearls in total. On the map, it may seem like they are located in the water but they are actually under it.
What Is Sango Pearl Used For In Genshin Impact?
Sango Pearl is the pride and joy of the people of Watatsumi. This beautiful jewel can only be found in the area, as it’s said to be the embodiment of Watatsumi Omikami (Orobashi). Because it’s the pride of Watatsumi, it’s only obvious that they’re used for characters that play a major role in the island.
Sango Pearl is the ascension material for Sangonomiya Kokomi and Gorou. In total, Travelers need 168 Sango Pearls for each of these characters.
Since there are only 44 Pearls available in the open-world, players either need to wait for four refreshes (eight real-life days) or loot the item from another player’s world. Either way, this exclusive item requires a lot of time to grind if Travelers have been procrastinating.
Genshin Impact is now available on Mobile, PC, PS4, and PS5. A Switch version is in development.
