As with most RPG titles, leveling up is the primary way of increasing your character’s strength in Honkai: Star Rail. However, the game takes a slight twist in the leveling process with Ascension, a task that occurs every 10 levels starting from Level 20. This means that players can ascend their character four times in total, allowing them to attain a higher level cap and more powerful abilities.
The ascension system in Honkai: Star Rail bears a striking resemblance to that of another game in the HoYoverse – Genshin Impact. If you are familiar with Genshin Impact, you will find the ascension system in Honkai: Star Rail to be quite similar.
However, the ascension in Honkai: Star Rail is not limited to characters alone. Light Cones, which are items that provide additional stats when equipped, can also be ascended.
If you are new to the concept of ascension, here is a brief explanation of the ascension process in the game, both for character and Light Cones.
When a character reaches Level 20, the ascension process changes, as the required amount and type of Ascension Materials will be different. This is referred to as Character Ascension, which takes place at every 10 levels starting from Level 20 and continues until the maximum level of 80 is reached.
It's important to note that each character in the game requires different Ascension Materials beyond Level 20. As a result, some characters may take longer to ascend due to their specific material requirements, while others may have a shorter ascension process. Players can advance to maximize the efficiency of the character ascension.
To ascend a character in Honkai: Star Rail, there are several requirements that must be fulfilled:
