How to Get Sanctifying Elixir
Players will receive 1 Sanctifying Elixir from the Anniversary Rewards, but apart from that, there will be three main ways to obtain more Sanctifying Elixir to craft the perfect artifact pieces.
Extract Upgraded Artifacts
Version 5.0 will feature a new Artifact Transmuter in which players will be able to destroy upgraded artifacts to gain a currency known as Extraction Progress.
The Extraction Progress players can get depends on the levels of the artifacts, and each 100 Extraction Progress will earn you 1 Sanctifying Elixir.
NOTE: There are a fixed number of Sanctifying Elixirs you can make per cycle.
This bottleneck means that you will not be able to create an infinite amount of Sanctifying Elixirs, but it will also give players time to stock up on more artifacts to have enough for the next cycle.
Exploring
Specific areas in Natlan will reward Sanctifying Elixirs as rewards for exploring, so players are more incentivized to explore the new region.
Battle Pass
The last currently announced method to obtain Sanctifying Elixirs is through the Battle Pass in the game.
In the Battle Pass, players can find Sanctifying Elixirs in the paid version of the pass at specific levels.
