Lampylumen is an ore resource which can be found in various places around Jinzhou, but it’s most heavily concentrated in the area where you battle Lampylumen Myriad in the tunnels beneath Tiger’s Maw Mine, ꧋accessed through the core of the tower in the middle of the mine itself. However, getting your hands on this 4-st🌊ar weapon isn’t straightforward, and comes with a couple prerequisites to unlock the vendor you need. 

Namely, you’ll need💛 to complete the first two acts of the Tiger’s Maw Exploration quests, which are:

  • Tiger’s Maw Act I: Hidden Dangers in Peaceful Life
  • Tiger’s Maw Act II: Shadows of the Past

It’s worth noting that, between these two quests, you will need to wait for 24 hours of real time to pass. Xiaoyu will not contact you before at least 24 hours have passed, so it’s a good time to get some side quests and so🥀me sleep in. 

Once you’ve completed these two quests, you’ll unlock a brand new vendor within Tiger’s Maw named Shilang, who will show up as a padlock shaped marker on the map. To access his wares, speak to him and select Tiger’s Maw Ore.
