Where to find Hermits on Sumeru and Desert map in Genshin Impact [farming routes]
You can find group members in each location in Sumeru, only in some places they did not set up their camps. In the following paragraphs, we will show in detail convenient routes for farming.
Jungle Lokapal
В Jungle Lokapal there are relatively few Hermits: they set up only 5 camps, in total you will find up to 16 opponents there. 3 "clumps" of enemies are located close to each other, up to 2 others can be run or moved to teleports nearby.
Move to the teleport located to the west of Statues of the Archon. At the first mark, you will immediately find the bandit camp.
Follow the southeast, under the huge mushrooms there are many paths trodden along which the Hermits patrol. Defeat them and move on.
From the second point, move west towards the coast. Run past the Fatui camp and approach the fork in the river (or move to the nearest teleporter). Several Hermits are almost always found by the boat, and one is on the rock to the right.
West of Forests of Motiyaima there is a teleport on the rock, around which the road is laid. In the southeast of this cliff, next to the path, you will find the Hermits' camp. Clear it and go to the last point in this location.
The last point is located slightly above the northernmost teleport in the Lokapal Jungle. Move to the right place and go north: several Hermits patrol along the paths, which will give red silk.
Vanarana
In the most Varanare, thanks to the aranars, you will not be able to meet a single Hermit. But in the nearby territories and paths, it will be possible to find 8 places of accumulation of these enemies. In total, you will find 28 enemies in the location, giving red silk.
The first point can be easily reached if you move to the marked teleport in the south of Vanarans. Run along the cliff to the north and you will immediately see the first outpost of the Hermits. Clear it and inspect the road nearby: there are often patrols on it.
Move along the path to the west, at the entrance to one of the caves you will see the structure of the Hermits, and nearby the enemies themselves.
Go a little further and on the right side you will find another camp of these opponents.
Head to the teleport located west of Statues of the Archon in Vanaran. Move along the path to the south, on the left side you will see a small halt of the Hermits.
Follow the same path to the south, before reaching the crossroads, you will find another Hermit halt, but this one is larger. Clean it up and move on.
If you turn off the path to the east, then on the neighboring island you will see another group of Hermits.
Return to the previous path and go straight south towards the river. On the other side, the Hermits have broken another "base", do not lose your chance and farm a little red silk.
Return to the road and follow it to the west. Not far from the place where the path begins to meander, you will find several houses in which the Hermits live.
Vishuddhi meadows
В Vishuddhi meadows have 11 points, where Hermits live, among them there are 3 especially large ones.
