Honkai Star Rail: Ruan Mei Farming Guide – All Ascension & Trace Materials

Honkai Star Rail's version 1.6 will be up in just a few weeks and will bring some super awesome characters into the game! One of them will be Ruan Mei, one of the sweetest characters the has to offer. If you plan on wishing for her once her banner is up, you can check out her needed materials in advance!

The upcoming banner 1.6 is probably one of the coolest ones we had so far. Next to Dr. Ratio and Xueyi, we will finally get to know Ruan Mei a little better as well! (And who wouldn’t want that?) The best part is, we have good news for all the Ruan Mei wanters: She will most likely be in the first phase of the upcoming version.

And speaking of herrelease date: This time, there are two possible release days for the version 1.6 and the Ruan Mei banner. This is due to a delay during patch 1.5, and it is still unknown if HoYoverse is fixing the schedule, making the current patch last only five weeks or if they just go with a new plan. That means Ruan Mei will release either on December 20, or on December 27!

It's quite understandable that many players are looking forward to pulling Ruan Mei in the upcoming patch. She has a gentle, yet sweet personality and on top of that, she is incredibly smart!

This is why she is, just like Herta and Screwllum, part of the Genius Society. The main field she is known for as a researcher is biological science, and especially her insights on the origin of life made even Nous himself curious about this young lady.

Let's check out which materials she will need in order to max her out right at the beginning!

Honkai Star Rail: Ruan Mei Ascension Materials

The following list provides an overview of Ruan Mei's needed ascension materials from level 1-80:

  • 290x Traveler's Guide or 1160x Adventure Log
  • 88,7000 Credits
  • 15x Immortal Scionette
  • 15x Immortal Aeroblossom
  • 15x Immortal Lumintwig
  • 65x Gelid Chitin

That looks like we have quite some farming to do …

Honkai Star Rail: Ruan Mei Trace Materials

After we successfully raised our Ruan Mei up until level 80, the actual annoying part starts: farming for her traces. If you want to max out these as well, this is what you need to have prepared:

  • 8x Tracks of Destiny
  • 3,000,000 Credits
  • 41x Immortal Scionette
  • 56x Immortal Aeroblossom
  • 58x Immortal Lumintwig
  • 18x Harmonic Tune
  • 69x Ancestral Hymn
  • 139x Stellaris Symphony
  • 12x Past Grievances of the Planet-Boring Disaster

That should be done in no time … right?! But before you start your farming session, you should really check out her traces first in order to decide which one has the highest priority for you! There are many characters who don't need all of their skills raised to the max!
