Honkai Star Rail Imbibitor Lunae materials guide: Ascension, best build, and more

The first phase of Honkai Star Rail 1.3 will feature the newest mode of Dan Heng, who goes by Imbibitor Lunae. Players will get access to the new Imaginary Destruction character alongside a few 4-star reruns, as the update's first banner will stay active for 21 days. While the community got to play him in the 1.2 Trailblaze mission, Imbibitor Lunae's playable kit is quite different.

The following article will list every ascension material required to ascend the 5-star variant of Dan Heng to the max. Some of the locations, enemies, and Caverns can be accessed in the current version of the game, allowing you to pre-farm certain materials ahead of the official update launch.

How to build Imbibitor Lunae in Honkai Star Rail

1) Light Cone

The signature Light Cone for Imbibitor Lunae will be "Brighter than the Sun," allowing players to increase their crit rate and ATK stat based on a unique stack called "Dragon's Call." However, to have a Light Cone ready, the "Fall of an Aeon" can be easily picked up from Herta Shop and upgraded to max superimposition.

2) Relics

The Wasterlander of Banditry Desert is the ideal relic set for Imbibitor Lunae Dan Heng. You can farm the set from Cavern of Corrosion: Path of Conflagration. Regarding planar ornaments, the Rutilant Arena can bring out decent results. The set can be found within the World 7 Simulated Universe.
