You can get Dream Materials from Dreamjolt Troupe enemies around Penacony. As for the Shape Shifter’s Lightning Staffs, it’s available from the Stagnant Shadow: Shape of Doom boss. You can access it from the Stargazer Navalia in the Xianzhou Luofu.
Here’s How to Level Up Acheron’s Talents
In order to completely level up a non-Basic Attack Trace for Acheron, you’ll need the following Ascension Materials:
- 9 Dream Collection Components
- 13 Dream Flow Valves
- 7 Dream Making Engines
- 3 Fiery Spirits
- 15 Starfire Essences
- 30 Heaven Incinerators
- 3 Past Evils of the Borehole Planet Disaster
- 1 Tracks of Destiny
- 652,500 Credits
You can get Fiery Spirit, Starfire Essence, and Heaven Incinerator from the Calyx (Crimson): Bud of Nihility in the Alchemy Commission (Xianzhou Luofu). If you have Black Swan, you would have needed to go here for her Traces. As for the Past Evils of the Borehole Planet Disaster, they’re from the Echo of War: Borehole Planet’s Old Crater. You can access it from the Seclusion Zone in Herta Space Station.
The bulk of Acheron’s usage comes from her Ultimate. You’ll want to prioritize leveling that up before her Skill. Leveling up her Talent will also increase how much All-Type RES shred she can induce with her Ultimate. So these two are more important than her Skill. You do not need to touch her Basic Attack, as you won’t use it unless you’re out of SP.
Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices. You will only be able to pull for Acheron in Honkai: Star Rail when the “Words of Yore” banner is live.
