Farm for Anaxa’s materials now!

Excited for Anaxa? Here are all the Ascension and Trace materials you need to max out Anaxa in Honkai Star Rail.

Anaxa, full name Anaxagoras, is a 5-star Wind character on the Path of Erudition. His kit allows him to inflict every Weakness Type to enemies - read more about that here.

Anaxa Ascension Materials

Ethereal Omen
Echoing Wail
Eternal Lament

A Glass of the Besotted Era

The Etheral Omen, Echoing Wail, and Eternal Lament materials drop from Black Tide creatures. They can be found in certain Amphoreus areas and nodes. You shouldn't have to go out of your way to farm them, but if you do, simply walk around the various enemy-infested areas.

A Glass of the Besotted Era is a Wind Ascension material you can farm from the Stagnant Shadow in Penacony Grand Theater.

Where to farm A Glass of the Besotted Era

The A Glass of the Besotted Era is the material you actually have to farm. You can farm this in the Stagnant Shadow: Shape of Gelidmoon node in Penacony Grand Theater.

During Anaxa's banner, the Temporary Early Access feature will activate to allow you to farm the material even if you do not have the area unlocked by then.

Alternatively, you can use the Omni-Synthesizer - Materials Exchange to acquire this material.
