In Avowed, you can obtain Hylea's Talon through various methods: purchasing from merchants, discovering it in the wild, breaking down equipment, crafting, and downgrading other materials.
Merchants: Lluisa Melcer & Abritt Porrya

The quickest way to acquire Hylea's Talon is by visiting Lluisa Melcer at the Farmer's Market and Abritt Porrya in Piaza Mez Vidarro. These merchants, located in the early Emerald Stair areas, sell up to 5 units each for 450 coins apiece.
Additionally, breaking down unique weapons and armor found throughout the game (at your party camp workbench) can yield Hylea's Talon.
Exploration
Similar to finding Paradisan Ladder in Dawnshore, Hylea's Talon can be discovered as a plant throughout Emerald Stair and other areas. Look for the distinctive plant icon on your mini-map. While exploring during the main Emerald Stair missions, you'll likely stumble upon several of these valuable herbs.
Crafting & Downgrading

If you've accumulated a surplus of Paradisan Ladder, you can craft one Hylea's Talon using four units at your party camp workbench. Alternatively, you can downgrade Admeth's Wyrt into Hylea's Talon using the "Downgrade" option in the workbench's "Upgrade Materials" menu.
Breaking Down Items
Disassembling unwanted high-quality weapons and armor can also provide Hylea's Talon. This method works only on "Exceptional" quality items or higher. Check the "Break Down" section of an item's description to see its potential yield.
