In Honkai: Star Rail, every character has the potential to possess up to six Eidolons. Beyond this limit, any additional Eidolons simply go to waste, granting players 100 Undying Starlights — equivalent to five bonus pulls. However, with the introduction of version 3.2, the process of acquiring an “E7″has become less cumbersome. Now, when players achieve this level for a five-star character, the Eidolon is transformed into a new item known as the Silver Companion Spirit. This innovative currency is part of a trio introduced in version 3.2 designed to enhance player experience when acquiring characters and weapons.
Below, we delve into the essentials regarding the Golden Companion Spirit, Silver Companion Spirit, and Light Cone Memory Shard in Honkai: Star Rail.
Golden & Silver Companion Spirit in Honkai: Star Rail
Honkai: Star Rail features two variations of Companion Spirit: Golden Companion Spirit and Silver Companion Spirit. Players can convert two Silver Companion Spirits into one Golden Companion Spirit, ensuring a steady acquisition of these valuable items even without participating in specific events.
To earn a Silver Companion Spirit, players need to achieve an Eidolon on a maxed-out five-star character. Specifically, reaching “E7″for a five-star character rewards players with one Silver Companion Spirit. Accumulating two of these allows players to redeem them for an additional five-star character from the store.
Notably, players who had previously acquired “E7″status for any character before version 3.2 will also receive a Silver Companion Spirit retroactively for their earlier pulls.
Aside from acquiring Silver Companion Spirits through Eidolons, players can also earn Golden Companion Spirits through events. In version 3.2, all players have the opportunity to claim one Golden Companion Spirit for free. Moreover, those who spend can obtain an additional Golden Companion Spirit by purchasing 18,000 Oneiric Shards during the Cherished Recollection event.
To redeem the Golden Companion Spirit, navigate to Store > Stellar Convergence > Character Redemption. As of version 3.2, available characters include:
- Ruan Mei
- Luocha
- Himeko
- Clara
- Bronya
- Welt
- Gepard
- Yanqing
- Bailu
There is no expiration on character exchanges, allowing players the flexibility to redeem their Golden Companion Spirits whenever they wish. Furthermore, additional characters will be introduced in future updates, making it wise for players to hold onto their Golden Companion Spirits.
Light Cone Memory Shard in Honkai: Star Rail
Players can acquire Light Cone Memory Shards in Honkai: Star Rail through two primary methods: events or the Battle Pass. In version 3.2, those who spend can collect up to four Light Cone Memory Shards from the Cherished Recollection event by purchasing a total of 8,000 Oneiric Shards.
Similarly, the Battle Pass also offers Memory Shards but requires investment. Players who purchase the Battle Pass can obtain a Light Cone Memory Shard upon reaching level 10. Additionally, upgrading to the Nameless Medal version of the Battle Pass provides one extra Light Cone Memory Shard.
To redeem Light Cone Memory Shards, players should visit Store > Stellar Convergence > Light Cone Redemption. Like the character redemption process, there are no time restrictions on these trades, allowing players the liberty to choose their desired items at their convenience.
