Arrows in Honkai Star Rail: how to get and use

In Honkai: Star Rail, arrows are a type of in-game currency that is required to purchase various items from a special shop in Lofu Xianzhou. You can earn it by finding chests, discovering secrets and completing some tasks.

In this guide, we will describe all the methods for obtaining arrows, as well as tell you what they can be spent on and what rewards you will receive for using this world currency. Note that similar money is available in other worlds: Shields (Yarilo-VI) and Hertariums (Space Station “Gerta”).

How to earn arrows in Honkai: Star Rail

According to game description, we are talking about the internal currency of the Xianzhou Alliance, so you can get and spend it only in the specified region. Although it is digital money, minted coins in the form of tips can be found in circulation. Next, we will tell you exactly how you can get arrows.

Adventure missions

A relatively easy, but not yet very profitable way to earn arrows, since most side quests can only get 25 arrows. At this point in time, there are only 4 quests that can be completed at the station with the corresponding reward:

• Firing
• From Xianzhou with love
• Master and friend
• Teacher and Friend: Sequel II

Thus, on quests you can earn only 100 arrows. This will most likely change in the future when the developers introduce the remaining locations of the region by adding new missions. Note that many quests are unlocked only after completing certain story missions and reaching Mastery level 36 and above, so you won't be able to get the currency right away.

Companion missions

Right now, similar quests there is no arrow reward in the game, but this should change on June 28 after the appearance of personal quests for Lochi, Yanqin and Bailu. With a high probability, they will give 50-100 arrows for their passage. We will update this section as soon as we have more accurate information.

Chests

We advise you to start exploring all the locations of the giant spaceship, as on its territory you can find a considerable number of chests, in which, in addition to stellar jade you can find shields:

• A regular chest contains 5 arrows.
• A valuable chest contains 10 arrows.
• A luxurious chest contains 20 arrows

At the time of writing, over 100 chests could be found in Lofu Xianzhou, thus obtaining at least 700 arrows. In a separate guide, we have shown the location of all the chests in this region.

Secrets

The most time-consuming way to earn arrows, since these secret mini-quests are not marked on the map and in the quest log in any way. Plus, some of them require collecting and finding certain objects in different locations. But by finding all the secrets on the planet, you can get over 150 arrows. In a separate guide, we showed all the secrets in Lofu Xianzhou and how to unlock them.

How to spend arrows

There is only one store that can use this currency at the moment – it is located in the Central Harbor of the Orphanage of the Star Skiffs, not far from the Stargazer Avenue dimensional anchor. Talk to Superintendent Handian and say you want to pawn something.

Here you can purchase a wide variety of items, including the Shadow of Preservation (unlocks Eidolons from the Pathfinder on the Preservation path). The table below shows the entire range of the merchant.

Rewards for using shields

Spend certain amounts of this currency, you will receive additional rewards. If you use all of the arrow earning methods above, you will be able to accumulate enough to buy back most of the items in the Specialty Store.

The table below shows how many shields you need to spend to give out rewards:

We hope that our guide to arrows in Honkai: Star Rail will help you earn enough Lofu Xianzhou local currency to buy all the goods in the special shop.
