Okay, so today I decided to get my hands dirty with gathering all the materials needed for Firefly in Honkai: Star Rail. I’ve been seeing a lot of hype around her, and honestly, I’m pretty hyped myself! So, I figured, why not start prepping? Here’s how my material hunt went down.
First things first, I needed a list. I did a quick search and it gave me a general idea, then I jumped into the game. Turns out, figuring out exactly which mobs drop what can be a bit of a pain.

My Scramble for Materials
I started with the basics – you know, the stuff you kinda just accumulate by playing normally. I had a decent stash of Credits, some EXP materials, and even a few of those basic ascension materials.
- Credits: Always need a ton.
- EXP Materials: Gotta get her leveled up fast!
Then came the real grind. I needed those specific items.
I spent a good chunk of time just running around, battling those robot dudes. I got into a rhythm after a while – teleport, fight, teleport, fight. My fingers were starting to ache, ngl.
And it’s not just fighting! You also need to think about Trace Materials. These are important to level up Firefly’s abilities. You should do the Crimson Calyx regularly.
After a few hours, I took a break and checked my inventory. Progress! Not as much as I’d hoped, but definitely a good start. I realized that I had totally forgotten to keep an eye on my Trailblaze Power – rookie mistake! You need that stuff to farm, and it runs out fast. So, I chugged some Fuel and used up some reserve. Don’t forget to make the most of your daily, you konw.
Wrapping Up (For Now)
Honestly, farming is a marathon, not a sprint. I’ve got a decent amount of stuff now, but I’m definitely going to be chipping away at this for a while. It’s kind of satisfying, though, seeing that inventory slowly fill up. It feels like I’m actually preparing for something big, you know?

So yeah, that was my day. A lot of button-mashing, a bit of frustration, but overall, I feel like I’m on the right track. Time to go do something else before my hands fall off.
