Honkai Star Rail's most recent addition to the character roster is named Acheron and a huge part of the community was instantly head over heels for her design and abilities. She turned out to be one of the most powerful DPS units in the entire Star Rail universe, who can deal enormous amounts of damage even on free-to-play accounts.

But just because you finished her build with some amazing Relics and a Light Cone, doesn’t mean you mastered the way of the Galaxy Rangers! Here are some, more or less, helpful tips and tricks to get even more value out of your Acheron.

Honkai Star Rail: Trick Snacks

This might not be an actually hidden trick anymore, however I'm sure there are at least some Acheron players who never heard of Trick Snacks! (Don't worry, I got you!)

Trick Snacks are consumables in Honkai Star Rail, which are often overlooked and to be fair, for most scenarios they indeed are quite useless, however, not for Acheron mains!

Trick Snacks have the following effect:

  • Upon use, immediately recovers two Technique Points for the team.

And I guess even the very last ones are starting to understand where this tip is going! — Yes, you can use your Technique as much as you would like to with these helpful little snacks, which allows you to clear many overworld enemies without having to see the combat screen once! But we will get to the perks of that in the next tip!

Luckily, Trick Snacks are pretty easy to craft, as long as you have found enough ingredients. All you need are a bunch of “Gaseous Liquid” and “Seeds”! If you ran out of both of these things, or are simply too lazy to craft them on end, there even is a place where you can buy at least some Trick Snacks!

Open your map and navigate to the Administrative District on Jarilo-VI. Go as far south as you can and teleport to the “Goethe Hotel” waypoint. If you reached that, all you have to do, is turn around and walk to the vending machine. There, you can buy ten Trick Snacks and this offer will reset every 24 hours!

I hope they actually taste good …

Honkai Star Rail: Overworld & Simulated Universe Clearing

This next point is much less a real trick but rather a good advice, especially for free-to-play players such as I am one!

If you managed to pull yourself an Acheron, you basically unlocked superfast farming as well! Many players are not really taking advantage of the huge amount of Credits and EXP that is just simple standing around in the form of smaller enemies. However, farming them in all four worlds just takes way too much time and is probably not worth it.

With Acheron's Technique “Quadrivalent Ascendance”, however, you should definitely start to clear your overworld, at least to some degree! This unique ability allows you to execute smaller enemies without needing to enter the combat screen, and killing them will take only seconds!

In order to clear as much of your overworld enemies as possible, the first tip may come in handy as well!

Honkai Star Rail: Debuffs From Follow-Up Attacks

Last but not least, I got a little heads-up for you, if you struggle to build a team around Acheron.

Acheron can fit into several different teams, since the only requirement for her to work is debuff application, and the only rule with that is: The more debuffs the better! So what if I tell you, there are units, who can apply their debuff multiple times in one action, and for that, trigger Acheron's talent and stack her Ultimate much faster?

The perfect example for this tip is Dr. Ratio, who is also a character everyone should have on their accounts, as you can get him for free! Even though Dr. Ratio is not a Nihility unit, his kit is still based on debuff application. With his skill, “Intellectual Midwifery” he applies one Effect RES debuff on the enemy. If you equip him with Topaz's signature Light Cone “Worrisome, Blissful”, the follow-up attack he will launch after his skill, will also apply another debuff, which makes two debuffs in one action!

This tip is definitely pretty niche and can only be used if you have this particular Light Cone, however if you do meet the requirements, you should try this out as fast as possible!
