How many Tail of Boreas you need
Talent levels 7 and 8 take 1 each and levels 9 and 10 take 2 each: 6 per talent, 12 for Skill and Burst, 18 for all three. Taking every character above to 10/10/10 would take 54, roughly 20 clears of Wolf of the North at 2.7 materials a clear, counting the Ring of Boreas and Spirit Locket of Boreas it also drops as converted with Dream Solvent (the same assumption the calculator makes).
Most players stop well short of that. The Trounce Domain Recommender reads your account export, subtracts what you already own and ranks all 14 weekly bosses by what you are actually short of.
Where to farm Tail of Boreas
Wolf of the North, in Mondstadt, drops Tail of Boreas, Ring of Boreas and Spirit Locket of Boreas. Your first three weekly boss rewards each week cost 30 Original Resin and later ones 60. A spare Ring of Boreas or Spirit Locket of Boreas can be turned into Tail of Boreas with Dream Solvent, 1 for 1, so a surplus from the same boss is never wasted.
Which weekly boss should you farm this week?
The Trounce Domain Recommender works it out from your own characters and inventory.
