Honkai: Star Rail will update with the "Realm of the Strange" event tomorrow, featuring double drops for outer relics. I believe many new players, and even veterans, are curious about how to maximize the benefits of relic farming now. Let's take a look at which relics are most worth acquiring!

Top 5: Path of Uncertainty

Relics Obtained: Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal, Scholar Lost in Erudition

Suitable Characters: Sunday, The Herta, Mydei, Anaxa

The Sacerdos set is suitable for support characters like Sunday, whose skills are cast on a single ally. Moreover, when multiple support characters in the team use the Sacerdos set, its effects can stack. However, many support characters currently use the Messenger set, so the demand for the Sacerdos set isn't particularly high now.

The Scholar set is suitable for main DPS characters whose primary damage sources are their Skill and Ultimate, especially the Skill. This includes characters like The Herta, Mydei, and Anaxa. That said, these DPS characters are not among the strongest in the current version. You can farm this domain if you are still actively using it.

Top 4: Path of Hidden Salvation

Relics Obtained: World-Remaking Deliverer, Self-Enshrouded Recluse

Suitable Characters: Evernight, Cyrene, Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae, Aventurine

The "World-Remaking Deliverer" relic set can increase CRIT Rate, boost the wearer's and the Memosprite's Max HP, and also increase the entire team's damage. It is suitable for memory fleet characters like Evernight and Cyrene. Prioritize farming for Speed; CRIT stats and HP% are also useful.

The "Self-Enshrouded Recluse" relic set can increase Shield Strength, and when an ally is under a shield provided by the wearer, it increases their CRIT DMG. It is suitable for shield-type sustain characters like Dan Heng • Permansor Terrae and Aventurine. 

Top 3: Path of Thundersurge

Relics Obtained: Warrior Goddess of Sun and Thunder, Wavestrider Captain

Suitable Characters: Hyacinth, Phainon, Saber

The Warrior Goddess set is not only triggered when a Memosprite provides healing; ordinary Abundance characters healing their allies can also activate it. It is usable by all healing-type characters, increasing the wearer's Speed and the whole team's CRIT DMG. Currently, the Warrior Goddess set is primarily used by Hyacinth. Similarly, focus on farming for Speed; CRIT stats and HP% are also worthwhile.

The Wavestrider Captain set is suitable for single main DPS carries, increasing CRIT DMG and ATK. Although the self-buffs of current DPS characters are already very strong, and gaining an extra 1-2 substats on relics might face diminishing returns, sometimes even a tiny improvement can make a significant difference. For example, if an enemy survives with 1% HP after a skill hit, a slight boost from the relic could be the difference that secures the kill.

Top 2: Path of Aria

Relics Obtained: Hero of Triumphant Song, Poet of Mourning Collapse

Suitable Characters: Aglaea, Castorice, Tribios

The "Hero of Triumphant Song" increases ATK, SPD, and the wearer's and their Memosprites' CRIT DMG, making it suitable for Aglaea.

The "Poet of Mourning Collove" increases Quantum DMG, reduces SPD, and increases CRIT Rate, making it suitable for Castorice and Tribios. Castorice and Tribios also have very high appearance rates throughout the Amphoreus versions, so farming relics for them is definitely worth it.

Top 1: Path of Gelid Wind

Relics Obtained: Hunter of Glacial Forest, Eagle of Twilight Line

Suitable Characters: Anaxa, Kafka, Silver Wolf, and others.

Let's not mention the "Hunter of Glacial Forest" set; its numerical values are relatively low. Even Ice attribute characters don't use it. If you farm it, you can directly dismantle it for relic experience fodder.

The Wind DMG boost from the 2-piece set effect of "Eagle of Twilight Line" can be ignored, but the 4-piece set's action advance after using the Ultimate is truly the absolute best. Many teams nowadays aren't lacking in raw stats or damage; the key is how to use less Action Value to execute skills, and the Wind set accomplishes exactly that, making it very suitable for support-type characters. Furthermore, current characters gain Energy and use their Ultimates quickly, allowing them to trigger this self-action advance more frequently.

Although the game is currently in a content drought period, it's still worth farming when double relic drop events are active. Wishing everyone good luck with their drops! So, which cavern are you planning to farm? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.
