Honkai: Star Rail Guide to Aglaea Ascension and Trace Material Requirements

Acquiring materials for Aglaea in Honkai: Star Rail is essential for optimizing her capabilities as a primary DPS character within your team compositions. As a 5-star Lightning character on the Path of Remembrance, Aglaea stands out as the first new playable character introduced since the game’s launch in 2023, following the addition of this Path with Version 3.0. This update has brought fresh dynamics to gameplay, allowing players to explore new character synergies and strategies.

Aglaea specializes in summoning her memosprite, Garmentmaker, and executing collaborative attacks alongside it. The combination of Aglaea and her summon exhibits rapid velocity and an ability to enhance their speed (SPD) throughout encounters, with increased speed resulting in higher damage output. Her potential as a formidable DPS is amplified when paired with hypercarry team setups, enhancing her overall performance. Before harnessing Aglaea’s full kit in Honkai: Star Rail, players should prioritize her Ascension and the development of her Traces, both of which necessitate material farming, primarily acquired from the newly introduced Amphoreus region.

To ascend Aglaea, players require materials from a new category: Fear-Stomped Flesh, Courage-Torn Chest, and Glory-Aspersed Torso. These items are exclusively obtained from defeating Titankin enemies in the Amphoreus region, meaning they cannot be pre-farmed prior to Version 3.0’s launch. Engaging in the Calyx (Golden) activities is the most efficient strategy to continuously gather these materials. Moreover, defeats of Titankin in the Simulated Universe, the Divergent Universe, from Assignments, or purchases from the Embers Exchange store can also yield these items.

The following table outlines the complete list of materials needed for Aglaea’s Ascension, categorized per level:

Aglaea Ascension Materials & Rewards in Honkai: Star Rail

Level Ascension Materials Rewards
Level 20 Ascension
  • 5x Fear-Stomped Flesh
  • 4,000x Credits
  • 1x Star Rail Pass
Level 30 Ascension
  • 10x Fear-Stomped Flesh
  • 8,000x Credits
Level 40 Ascension
  • 6x Courage-Torn Chest
  • 3x Nail of the Beast Coffin
  • 16,000x Credits
  • 1x Star Rail Pass
Level 50 Ascension

  • 7x Nail of the Beast Coffin
  • 40,000x Credits
Level 60 Ascension
  • 6x Glory-Aspersed Torso
  • 20x Nail of the Beast Coffin
  • 80,000x Credits
  • 1x Star Rail Pass
Level 70 Ascension
  • 9x Glory-Aspersed Torso
  • 35x Nail of the Beast Coffin
  • 160,000x Credits
Total Materials
  • 15x Fear-Stomped Flesh
  • 15x Courage-Torn Chest
  • 15x Glory-Aspersed Torso
  • 65x Nail of the Beast Coffin
  • 308,000x Credits
  • 3x Star Rail Pass

While the quantity of items needed for Aglaea’s Ascension is manageable, players should also consider their demand during her Trace-leveling process. It is advisable to gather a surplus of these materials whenever possible. Players should strategically leverage the Omni-Synthesizer to convert three Fear-Stomped Flesh into one Courage-Torn Chest and three Courage-Torn Chests into one Glory-Aspersed Torso as her Ascension progresses. This strategy extends to her Trace development using similar materials in Honkai: Star Rail.

As a Lightning character, Aglaea will also require the Nail of the Beast Coffin, a unique Ascension material exclusively sourced from the Stagnant Shadow: Shape of Mechwolf activity on the Xianzhou Luofu map. A total of 65 units are necessary, necessitating at least 12 engagements to accumulate the required materials, as the activity yields five copies of Nail of the Beast Coffin at optimal levels. Though conversion through the Omni-Synthesizer is an option, direct farming is typically more efficient.

Additionally, to reach level 80 with Aglaea, players need to gather 308,000 Credits, along with an expected 508,000 Credits if using Character EXP Materials for leveling. Farmable in activities such as Calyx (Golden): Bud of Treasures, the optimal choice would be to challenge that in Amphoreus for supplementary Titankin drops.

Gathering Required Trace Materials: A Time-Intensive Process

As stated earlier, the Ascension materials Fear-Stomped Flesh, Courage-Torn Chest, and Glory-Aspersed Torso are also utilized to enhance Aglaea’s Traces. Given the higher volume of materials needed for this phase, players will likely need to farm extensively. While these materials are not overly difficult to acquire, the timeline may stretch into several days, so it’s advisable to incorporate this farming alongside other resource needs.

The next table presents all items required for the complete upgrade of Aglaea’s Traces in Honkai: Star Rail:

Aglaea Trace Materials in Honkai: Star Rail

Fear-Stomped Flesh
  • 41x
Courage-Torn Chest
  • 56x
Glory-Aspersed Torso
  • 58x
Bīja of Consciousness
  • 18x
Seedling of Manas
  • 69x
Flower of Ālaya
  • 139x
Auspicious Sliver
  • 12x
Tracks of Destiny
  • 8x
Credits
  • 3,000,000x

Aglaea’s Traces also rely on additional materials: Bīja of Consciousness, Seedling of Manas, and Flower of Ālaya, which also debuted with Version 3.0 and could not be accumulated beforehand. These exclusive materials can only be collected during the Calyx (Crimson): Bud of Remembrance activity located in the Strife Ruins – Castrum Kremnos area within Amphoreus. They are also necessary for improving the abilities of the Remembrance Trailblazer and will be utilized by future characters on the Remembrance Path.

Additionally, players must procure Auspice Sliver, a weekly boss material obtained from the Echo of War: Inner Beast’s Battlefield, where you face the Shadow of Feixiao boss. Only 12 copies are required; however, the inherent limitations of weekly activities may introduce delays in farming. Auspice Sliver is also utilized by Lingsha, potentially leaving players with extra materials if they have previously farmed for her needs.

Tracks of Destiny, essential for Aglaea, can be obtained weekly through progress in the Simulated Universe, limited-time events, or purchased from the Embers Exchange and Starlight Exchange shops, as well as through the Nameless Honor battle pass. Ultimately, the process of leveling Traces is resource-demanding, with Aglaea requiring a substantial 3,000,000 Credits. Players can farm Credits across various activities, though engaging with Calyx (Golden): Bud of Treasures is recommended for maximizing yield.

Be prepared for a potentially extended timeframe to gather all the requisite materials for Aglaea. As two complete sets of her needed items have only recently become available with Version 3.0, the process may prove time-intensive. However, once you have successfully maxed out Aglaea, focus on crafting her builds in Honkai: Star Rail to fully exploit her devastating damage potential.
