Back to All Characters
Few characters have ever been (or ever will be) as popular as the Wanderer. This Anemo catalyst user is known by many names: The Wanderer, Balladeer, Kunikuzushi, Scaramouche, and more. A member of the Fatui Harbingers and a god’s manufactured puppet, Wanderer was finally released during the Sumeru arc after years of fans begging for him to be playable.
With how popular this character is, many will be looking to ascend him and make the most of his talents. This guide will outline everything needed to unlock higher levels through ascension and to upgrade his three talents.
Leveling Materials
Even though he was briefly a god, and is born of another god, the Wanderer needs just as much EXP as anyone else to hit level 90, outlined below:

Wanderer Ascension Items
Many thought Scaramouche would become a playable Electro character, but he actually has an Anemo Vision. As such, he’ll need some Vayuda Turquoise to ascend. He’ll also need, interestingly, items from both Inazuma and Sumeru.

Gemstones - Where to Find Vayuda Turquoise
There are quite a few places to find each of the elemental ascension gems, including Vayuda Turquoise. The most reliable method, though, is by farming the bosses who can drop it, which include the following:

Enemy Drop - Where to Find Handguards
Even though the Wanderer is considered a Sumeru character, players will need to venture back to his homeland, Inazuma, for some of his ascension materials. This is because his enemy drop, Handguards, cannot be obtained in Sumeru. The enemies that drop them call Inazuma home as well. These enemies are theNobushiand theKairagi, rogue samurai found around the Inazuman archipelago.
These samurai can be found in great numbers around Yashiori Island, though they tend to be found almost anywhere in Inazuma. Other spots where many of them are found include Tsurumi Island and the north half of Narukami Island.
Enemies must be at certain levels to drop higher-quality items. The same is true for Nobushi and Kairagi.

Boss Drop - How to Get Perpetual Caliber
For the Wanderer’s boss drop, it’s time to head back to Sumeru. One Sumeru boss,the Aeonblight Drake, is the source of his boss drop material, the Perpetual Caliber. This boss is found inside Devantaka Mountain, making it a bit challenging to access. The best method is to teleport to the waypoint at the north tip of the crater valley in the middle of the mountain (where the giant Ruin Guard is). From there, use Dendro on the Clusterleaf of Cultivation and make the way over to the cave. Keep to the right to find the boss.
Local Specialty - Where to Find Rukkhashava Mushrooms
Those who wanted to ascend Collei upon Sumeru’s initial release will know all too well the headache of finding Rukkashava Mushrooms. Unfortunately, the Wanderer uses this local specialty as well. They’re found in quite a few places, though they can be hard to find because they’re either underground or in trees and under large mushroom caps. Hot spots for Rukkashava Mushrooms includenorth of Pardis Dhyai, aroundMawtiyima Forest, in caves aroundDevantaka Mountain, and aroundApam Woods.
Fortunately, there are two NPCs that sell these mushrooms: Ashpazi in Gandharva Ville and Aramani the Aranara, found tucked into a cave under a rock formation in the dream version of Vanarana. Both of them sell five Rukkashava Mushrooms for 1,000 Mora each, restocking them every three days.

Talent Books - Praxis
There are three talent books in each region, and in Sumeru, one of them is Praxis. This series is the one used by the Wanderer for his talent upgrades.
These talent books can be farmed in the Steeple of Ignorance on Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Trounce Materials - Daka’s Bell
It’s a bit strange that the Wanderer will use a material from… himself as part of his talent upgrades, but the same is true for Childe, so it seems to be a recurring thing for Fatui Harbingers.
The specific trounce material that the Wanderer uses is Daka’s Bell, which is, of course, obtained by defeating Scaramouche’s boss fight, technically called Joururi Workshop.
This trounce domain is only available after completing Sumeru Archon Quest Chapter III: Act V - Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises up to the end of the portion titled “Where the Boat of Consciousness Lies.”
