HoYoVerse revealed how the new Honkai: Star Rail Tears of Dream Trace and Light Cone material will work. This is a new, “universal” sort of item that will debut after the 1.6 update at the end of December 2023.
The Tears of Dream is designed to be used as an item if you don’t have the exact Path materials needed to ascend a Light Cone or to level up a character’s Traces. So instead of, say, needing teh Shattered Blade, Lifeless Blade, or Worldbreaker Blade to level up a Destruction Light Cone or Trace, you could use a Tears of Dream. HoYoVerse also seemed to suggest that there will be an exchange option for these items.
In addition to Tears of Dream, HoYoVerse teased that the 2.0 Penacony update will add more Path materials via Crimson Calyxes. It didn’t name them, but noted that these items will be needed for new characters and Light Cones on existing Paths.
The update also included details about Trace Materials that people normally get via Assignments or enemies. Starting in 2.0, they will also be rewards from Golden Calyxes. In addition to these being in Penacony, there will be some of these new Golden Calyxes in Xianzhou Luofu. The existing Belobog Golden Calyx is confirmed to drop Cores of Ice and Extinguished Cores.
Honkai: Star Rail is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices. The 1.6 update will arrive in late December 2023, and the 2.0 update will appear in early 2024.
