Quickest Ways to Acquire Hylea's Talon
The fastest method is to visit merchants Lluisa Melcer (Farmer's Market) and Abritt Porrya (Piaza Mez Vidarro) in Emerald Stair. They each stock up to 5 Hylea's Talons, selling them for 450 coins apiece. This is ideal for immediate needs.

Beyond merchants, many unique weapons and armor can be broken down at your party camp's workbench, yielding additional Hylea's Talons.
Exploration and Foraging
Similar to finding Paradisan Ladder in Dawnshore, Hylea's Talon can be found as a plant throughout Emerald Stair and other areas. Look for the distinctive plant icon on your mini-map. While exploring for story missions, keep an eye out for these valuable herbs; they often appear in clusters.
Crafting and Material Conversion

If you've accumulated a surplus of Paradisan Ladder, you can craft Hylea's Talon at your workbench. Four Paradisan Ladders yield one Hylea's Talon. Alternatively, you can downgrade Admeth's Wyrt into Hylea's Talon using the "Downgrade" option in the workbench's "Upgrade Materials" menu.
Deconstructing Items
High-quality gear (Exceptional or above) can be broken down in your inventory to recover components, including Hylea's Talon. Check the "Break Down" section of an item's description to see what materials you'll obtain.
Now that you're equipped with these methods, you'll be well-prepared to gather Hylea's Talon in *Avowed*. Good luck! For more helpful tips, check out our guides on the Painter's Regret Map and the game's complete achievement list.
