In Honkai Star Rail, Tit for an Tat is a Jarilo-VI adventure mission in which you help the Silvermane Guardians and Oleg in the destruction of the monsters of the Fragmentum. To do this, you have to pass a series of tests at three levels of difficulty. In this guide, we'll show you how to start the quest, use the snow torch, defeat all enemies, and complete the conditions for additional rewards.
How to start the Eye for an Eye quest
Before you can take on this quest, you will need to meet a couple of conditions, namely:
- Achieve at least level 26 of Mastery.
- Complete a Mastering mission called “Time Waits, My Friend”.
< p>
Oleg should contact you once you've completed the above requirements. Read his message, in which he will ask you to help in the counterattack on the monsters, organized by the guards. Next, travel to the northwestern Dimensional Anchor of the Silvermane Guard Forbidden Zone and speak with William there.

Helpful Tips
The soldier will tell you about the objectives of the mission and about the new defense system – the snow burner. Next, select the first test and talk to Oleg, who will be waiting for you on the right side. He will tell you about the principles of the new device.
For the snow burner to work, you must first pick up a thermocore (red sphere), and then insert it into the device, which will lead to the appearance of an orange circle around it. All enemies in the device's area of effect will receive a fire vulnerability and lose their frost damage bonus.
< /p>
Here are a few more tips for completing this challenge:
- Get more healers ready and empowering consumables, as you can use them between battles.
- Keep an eye on the mini-map, as the general map will not work here. Nearby enemies are shown as red dots.
- If necessary, you will be able to leave the Corridor of Disappearing Echoes and save your progress. You can also replay previous stages if you didn't manage to reach all the objectives the first time.
- Try to attack monsters only when they are in the area of the burner. If the enemies are too far away, draw their attention and then run towards the device.
- You can heal and resurrect your characters using support anchors, which are sometimes found in locations.

First battle
So, after a short tutorial, pick up the core and insert it into the device. Then attack the first enemy in front. The vulnerabilities of opponents are shown in the screenshot below. They will be under the action of the burner, so they shouldn't cause you any problems.

Third battle
Next, interact with the controller and go through the opened passage. You will enter a spacious area. There will be two groups of enemies patrolling here. Wait until they move to the right, and then run to the core and insert it into the burner. Now you can safely attack the mobs.
