Tequemecan Valley Pyroculus Locations and Route Guide
Tequemecan Valley is one of the largest exploration areas for Natlan in Genshin Impact. This guide provides an overview of where to find the Pyroculus in the area.
Tequemecan Valley Pyroculus Guide
The Tequemecan Valley is one of the four starting areas of Natlan. There are a total of 39 Pyroculus available in this area.
It is recommended to complete the Archon Quest first before going out of your way to collect any Pyroculus. Some Pyroculus are locked behind the following World Quests:
- Pyroculus #32 to #36: Shadows of the Mountains
- Pyroculus #37 to #39: Pledge and Forgettance
The map provided below has several levels of layers, as the Valley has many mountains to climb and descend. As such, each layer's Pyroculus are colour-coded for easier navigation. Players are highly recommended to make use of the local Tepetlisaurus, Yumkasaurus, or Koholasaurus to make travelling around and resolving Nightsoul mechanics easier. Alternatively, players can also use Natlan-exclusive characters who have a Nightsoul's Blessing.
For nearby Pyroculus not shown below, please check out the other guides available on Icy Veins!
