How to Get Golden Companion Spirit

Add to Watchlist

Honkai Star Rail - Golden Companion Spirit

Golden Companion Spirit is a special currency in Honkai: Star Rail. Check out how to use the Golden Companion Spirit, what you can exchange it for, and how to get it here!

How to Get Golden Companion Spirit

Log-in During Version 3.7 Until 4.0

Honkai Star Rail - Free Golden Companion Spirit in Version 3.7

Starting from Version 3.7, players can get one Golden Companion Spirit for free just by logging in until Version 4.0.

3.7 Banners and Release Date

Get 2 Duplicates of a 5-Star Character With Maxed Eidolons

HSR Golden Companion Spirit - Get from Maxed Eidolons

As of Version 3.5, one way of obtaining Golden Companion Spirits is to get two duplicates of a 5-star character with maxed Eidolons.

How to Get Eidolons

Participate in the Top-Up Event

HSR Golden Companion Spirit - Star Rail Cherished Recollection

Previously in Version 3.2, Trailblazers were able to participate in the Oneiric Shard Top-Up Event to get various rewards. Here, players could get one Golden Companion Spirit by accumulating a total of 18,000 Oneiric Shards.

Star Rail - Ruan Mei ItemRuan Mei Star Rail - Topaz ItemTopaz Star Rail - Welt ItemWelt
Star Rail - Yanqing ItemYanqing

As of Version 3.7, you can exchange the Golden Companion Spirit for either Topaz, Luocha, Ruan Mei, or any of the standard 5-star characters.

Best Golden Companion Spirit Character

We highly recommend claiming Ruan Mei with the Golden Companion Spirit due to her All-Type RES PEN and Break Effect buffs, which work especially well in Break Teams. However, if you're lacking good sustain units, you might want to pick Luocha instead.

Since it's difficult to get Golden Companion Spirits, it's not recommended to get any of the Standard 5-star characters as you can still get them from pulling on the Standard Banner or losing 50/50s on Limited-Time Banners.

Golden Companion Spirits could also be saved instead since more redeemable characters will eventually be added in future updates!
