Ensnaring Gaze
Ensnaring Gaze is a boss material that can be obtained by defeating the Tenebrous Papilla in Natlan.
Dracolite
Dracolite is a new local specialty item in Natlan that you must farm for Iansan’s ascension. You can harvest it by breaking its ore using Elemental Reactions, with Overloaded being the most effective. You can also use Tatankasaur’s attacks to destroy the ore.
Sentry’s Wooden Whistle, Warrior’s Metal Whistle, and Saurian-Crowned Warrior’s Golden Whistle
Sentry’s Wooden Whistle, Warrior’s Metal Whistle, and Saurian-Crowned Warrior’s Golden Whistle are commonly dropped by the Saurian Warrior enemies found all over Natlan. You can also buy some of the drops from the in-game shop.
Denial and Judgement
You can obtain Denial and Judgement by defeating The Knave weekly boss in Fontaine.
Teachings of Contention, Guide to Contention, and Philosophies of Contention
You can farm Philosophies of Contention and its lower rarities in the Blazing Ruins domain only on Monday, Thursday, and Sunday.
As for Crown of Insight, you can obtain it as a reward from the flagship events.
