Honkai: Star Rail has some systems that would be familiar to Genshin Impact players, like how their Eidolon mechanic is similar to Constellation. By obtaining copies of a character, people can activate the said unit's Eidolon Resonance, which will enhance their strength and provide new effects to make them more valuable in battle. However, similar to the Traveler in Genshin Impact, players can't get another Main Character, so Trailblazer's Eidolon can be obtained through other means.

In Honkai: Star Rail, the Physical Trailblazer's Eidolon is called Shadow of Destruction, and it can be collected from finishing main quests, buying it from the shop, or from simply leveling up.

Shadow of Destruction in Honkai: Star Rail is used to activate Physical Trailblazer’s Eidolon Resonance. This is equivalent to Constellation in Genshin Impact. Players can unlock new abilities that make the Trailblazer stronger like the E4 that increases Crit Rate by 25% when attacking an enemy with Weakness Break. Similar to Genshin Impact, for E3 and E5, there’s no extra effect. E3 increases Skill and Talent levels by +2, while Ultimate and Basic Attack get +2 and +1 levels, respectively.

Honkai: Star Rail is now available on Android, iOS, and PC. A PlayStation version is in development.
