What Is Edelschnee in Wuthering Waves?
It is a regional resource used primarily for Resonator Ascension. It appears as a glowing plant in cold environments and can be collected instantly without fighting enemies.
Several Resonators require this item during their ascension phases. One notable example is Luuk Herssen, who needs a total of 60 pieces of Edelschnee to complete the final phase of his character ascension.
Because this resource appears in a limited part of the map, knowing the exact farming spots makes finding it far easier.
All Edelschnee Locations in Wuthering Waves

Nearly all resource nodes are located around Mount Gjallar in the Frostlands region. If you follow a circular path starting from nearby teleport points, you can gather most of the available nodes in a single farming run.
In total, there are 65 collectible nodes scattered across the Frostlands region.
Edelschnee Locations #1. Ginnungamere Monitoring Zone

Start your farming route by teleporting to the Resonance Nexus in the Ginnungamere Void Storm Monitoring Zone.
From there:
- Head southwest toward the nearby chest area.
- Around 12 nodes can be collected in this route.
Edelschnee Locations #2. Northwest Mount Gjallar Route

Return to the same beacon and travel northwest toward Mount Gjallar.
This path contains the largest cluster, with roughly 20 nodes spread across snowy ridges and mountain paths. Because the plants appear close together here, this is widely considered one of the best farming areas in the Frostlands.
Edelschnee Locations #3: Northeast Coast Route

After finishing the mountain route, move northeast toward the coastline.
This path leads toward the sea and contains around 18 additional nodes across the frozen terrain. Using a motorbike or gliding between cliffs makes collecting them faster.
Edelschnee Locations #4: Roya Icebreak Port

The final resource cluster can be found near Roya Icebreak Port.
Teleport to the nearby Resonance Beacon and travel northeast toward an Outcast camp. Inside the tents, you can collect three additional nodes.
This area may trigger a side quest, but it can safely be ignored if you only want to gather materials.

If you are missing a few pieces, this material can also be purchased. Visit the Resonator Nursing Unit shop managed by N.A.N.A. at Startorch Academy Square.
Shop Details:
- Price: 3,000 Shell Credits each
- Purchase limit: 15 per week
- Stock refresh: Every week
This method is useful when you need a small amount quickly, though it is not ideal for bulk farming.
Respawn Time and Farming Tips
Like most regional materials, the resource follows a 48-hour respawn timer after being collected.
To farm quickly:
- Mark locations on the map during your first run
- Start from a Resonance Beacon near Mount Gjallar
- Follow a circular farming route
- Avoid unnecessary combat
- Use characters with faster gliding abilities
Repeating the same farming path frequently ensures a steady supply of the material.
How Many Edelschnee You Need for Ascension
The total amount depends on the character you are upgrading.
For example, Luuk Herssen requires roughly 60 Edelschnee for maximum ascension. Fortunately, the Frostlands region contains enough nodes to gather most of the materials in one or two farming cycles.
Collecting extra is also recommended since future characters may require the same resource.
