The Light Cone Memory Shard is one of two slightly pay-to-win currencies that will be introduced to Honkai: Star Rail during the Version 3.2 update. Alongside the Golden Companion Spirit, the Light Cone Memory Shard will give players the ability to get 5-star Light Cones of their choice rather than having to rely on the game. This is indeed a great change, with its only drawback being that it’s somewhat locked behind a major paywall or just a ton of playtime. In this guide, we’ll explain what the Light Cone Memory Shard is, how you can get it, and how you can exchange it for Light Cones.

Light Cone Memory Shard Overview

The Light Cone Memory Shard is a new, unique item that will become available in Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.2. You can use this item to exchange for 5-star Light Cones in the [Stellar Convergence] shop. The Light Cones, which will be available in this shop at the release of Version 3.2, are the following:

  • Past Self in Mirror (Harmony)
  • She Already Shut Her Eyes (Preservation)
  • The Unreachable Side (Destruction)
  • Echoes of the Coffin (Abundance)
  • In the Night (The Hunt)
  • Night on the Milky Way
  • In the Name of the World
  • But the Battle Isn’t Over
  • Something Irreplaceable
  • Moment of Victory
  • Sleep Like the Dead
  • Time Waits for No One

These Light Cones will be permanently available in the shop, and with newer versions, even more Light Cones will join the exchange shop roster.

Players can get Light Cone Memory Shards in two ways.

P2W Event

The first way to obtain Light Cone Memory Shards is through the [Cherished Recollection] pay-to-win event that will be available in Version 3.2. During this event, players must buy a set amount of Oneiric Shards. Upon reaching a certain milestone, you will be rewarded with an item. Players can get 4 Light Cone Memory Shards by reaching the 8000 Oneiric Shard milestone, or in other words, $65.

Battle Pass

The other way players can get Light Cone Memory Shards is through the Battle Pass. Players can get a total of 2 Light Cone Memory Shards through the Battle Pass. One you can get for reaching the appropriate level of the [Nameless Glory], and you get an additional Light Cone Memory Shard if you decide to purchase the [Nameless Medal] option. In other words, you’ll have to purchase either of the two battle passes to get Light Cone Memory Shards. There is no F2P way to obtain Light Cone Memory Shards.
