Acheron is a 5-Star Nihility super-carry with the potential to deal insane amounts of damage in Honkai: Star Rail. However, like every other DPS unit in the game, players need to make a significant investment of time and resources before she can hit her peak potential.
Honkai: Star Rail – Animated Billboard Locations (We Are All Friends Here Achievement)
Finding all seven kinds of Animated Billboard in Penacony can grant Honkai: Star Rail players an achievement called We Are All Friends Here.
The following is a complete list of all the materials needed to get Acheron to max level. As usual, it’s going to take a lot of farming, but unlocking all of Acheron’s Traces will net players tons of additional Lightning and CRIT DMG, cementing the Galaxy Ranger’s place as one of the strongest Nihility characters in Honkai: Star Rail.

Specifically, they drop from any enemy that falls under the Dreamjolt Troupe category, such as the Lordly Trashcans and the ever-infamous dinosaur chefs. Meanwhile, Shape Shifter’s Lightning Staff pieces can be earned in the Stagnant Shadow in Stargazer Navalia.

As a DPS-focused member of Star Rail’s Nihility roster, Acheron shouldn’t be using her Basic Attack much. Players can comfortably keep this skill at level without losing much damage, if any at all. The materials are better spent on the rest of her kit.
Fiery Spirit and its advanced versions can be easily earned by farming the Calyxes in the Alchemy Commission in the Xianzhou Luofu.

Acheron gets a ton of damage boosts from her Traces. Players should unlock all of these as soon as possible to significantly improve her damage output outside of equipping Light Cones and Relics.
