Honkai: Star Rail Players Aren't Happy With the Relic System
Honkai: Star Rail players have voiced their frustration over the game's relic system, claiming it's unrewarding and restrictive.

Cavern of Corrosion and Simulated Universe are the only two ways to farm relics in Honkai: Star Rail, and as players might expect, these endgame modes can be genuinely challenging. They feature combat gauntlets filled with a formidable roster of enemies. Both
