What Is Blood Moon Essence Event

Blood Moon Essence is a unique crafting material, a mysterious orb that defies explanation. This sphere represents the very Essence of change and suggests chaotic times.

It is obtained by defeating Root Wisps during a blood moon event and is only found in Yaesha. Blood Moon Essence is essential to gain artifacts from the Bloodmoon Altar, such as the coveted Knotted armor set, Soul Anchor, and the enigmatic Sanguine Vapor.

Harvesting this Essence is an investment to unlock gear possibilities. For that instance, I started searching for the purple wisps, which led to the Blood Moon Essence. It might be challenging to gather them, especially during the rare red moon eclipse event.

During this event, purple wisps only appear near wooden buildings, making it necessary to take a calculated approach to collect the required 66 Blood Moon Essence for getting all the items at the Bloodmoon Temple.

Farming Blood Moon Essence

Understanding the Blood Moon Event is necessary for productive farming. Due to the red moon above you, this rare event changes Yaesha’s landscape by giving it a reddish tint.

In my experience, the event was initiated with a red glow.

Firstly, head to the Yaesha.
You can return to the previous zone if the event is unavailable and then rotate to find the event.
Once in Yaesha, search for wooden cottages during the Blood Moon event because the essential purple wisps spawn here. I took part in the battle with the Wisps to obtain Blood Moon Essence.
Retrace steps after passing through a golden vapor door to increase effectiveness. It caused the wisps to reappear, allowing my character to collect more Essence. I repeated the previous process to gather every available Blood Moon Essence.

Players can fully utilize the Bloodmoon Altar’s powers by mastering this farming method. However, patience and persistence are essential due to the event’s randomness and the unique conditions required for wisps to arise.

Yaesha’s blood moon essence farming is simple and mainly takes place in nearby areas of wooden houses.

Challenges Faced In Blood Moon Event

Blood Moon event gives a fun and neat exploration of the game while also keeping up the bar for rewards. However, one trouble that I faced the most was encountering the event to farm the Blood Moon essence. Unfortunately, that is the only approach to farm the item, and no other workaround like killing the doe guarantees the spawn of the Blood Moon event, in my experience.
