Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into this whole Firefly character in Honkai Star Rail, and let me tell you, getting all the ascension materials together was a bit of a journey. I figured I’d share my experience, ’cause, you know, maybe it’ll help someone else out.
First Steps: Gotta Get That Basic Stuff
First things first, I needed to figure out exactly what I needed. I found a neat material list in bilibili.

- Raging Heart:This one,Oh, the dreaded Raging Heart… that took some serious grinding.
- Tatters of Thought, Fragments of Impression, and Shards of Desires: These weren’t too bad, just had to do a bunch of those Calyx (Crimson) runs. I kinda zoned out while doing these, to be honest.
- An assortment of “Thief” materials:This part had me running around different places, I think I hit up all corners.
The Real Grind Begins
The Raging Heart… ugh. I spent like two days, no joke, just farming that same boss over and over. I’m pretty sure I can beat it in my sleep now. Pro tip: Make sure your team is strong enough, or you’re gonna have a bad time.
I started by building a strong team. I tried various combinations, and then I did some testing to make sure I could consistently beat the bosses and do the Calyx runs without any trouble. It took a few tries to get it right, but eventually, I found a setup that worked pretty well.
The Reward
Finally, after what felt like forever, I had everything! Seeing Firefly all powered up was totally worth it. All those hours of grinding, all those repetitive battles, it all paid off. It felt good to finally reach that goal. Now I can take Firefly and the team on even more adventures.
