How to obtain
LF Autopuppet Kernel, MF Autopuppet Kernel, HF Autopuppet Kernel, FF Autopuppet Kernel: Dropped by autopuppet enemies in Xuanfang Hold, west of Jinzhou.
Spliced String, Broken String, Solidified String, Melodic String: Obtained from Forgery Challenge: Cloudfall Chasm in Mengzhou and Forgery Challenge: Lesson in Sunset in Lahai-Roi.
Solidarity’s Loneflame: Dropped by Myriad Snare: Rustfire Chassis, the overworld boss in the Western Fang Peaks area of Xuanfang.
Remnant of the Wheel: Dropped by Suhsin the Inevitable, a Calamity Class weekly boss in the Simulacrum Nexus of Mengzhou.
Bloom of Hearkening: Gathered across the Simulacrum Nexus of Mengzhou and bought from the Huaxu Apothecary.
Basic Resonance Potion, Advanced Resonance Potion, Premium Resonance Potion: Earned from Simulation Training (Resonance Potion).
Shell Credit: Earned from Simulation Training (Shell Credit).
Almost everything in Xuanfang Hold drops Autopuppet Kernel materials, from the three Picket variants to the six Kernel Puppets, the Forbidden Bastion, and both halves of the Fog Lionarch. Hsin alone needs 61 FF Autopuppet Kernel, the largest enemy drop on her list, so start clearing that area early. If you already built Suisui, Yangyang: Xuanling, or Qingxiao, you know the route.
Both String dungeons hand out the same four tiers for the same Waveplate, so run whichever one you have unlocked. Cloudfall Chasm sits in Mengzhou and Lesson in Sunset in Lahai-Roi. Neither is a Rectifier dungeon as such: each one carries the material line for all five weapon types, and you pick String on the way in. Suisui uses the same four String materials, so anything left over from her build carries straight across.
Solidarity’s Loneflame comes from Myriad Snare: Rustfire Chassis, the overworld boss in the Western Fang Peaks. The fight opens once you clear Chapter 4 Act 1, The Wind Before the Storm, so most accounts that played through Version 3.5 already have it. Suisui and Yangyang: Xuanling draw from the same boss, which means the 46 Hsin needs come on top of whatever those two already took.
Remnant of the Wheel drops from Suhsin the Inevitable, the Calamity Class weekly boss of Version 3.7. Its domain, Ordinance of the Inevitable, opens from Mengxuan Vale at the centre of the Simulacrum Nexus of Mengzhou. The fight unlocks through Chapter 4 Act 4, Simulacrum of the Heart, and the Guidebook offers an Early Access entry under Boss Challenge if you have not reached that point.
Suhsin deals Electro damage and resists it. Each Union Response your team triggers adds a stack of Paradox, and at two stacks the boss takes 30% more damage and its resistance to every attribute drops to zero. Hsin wants 26 drops, and Suoming needs the same material, so an account pulling both is looking at 52. The weekly reset caps how many you carry home, so clear the fight every week.
Bloom of Hearkening grows only in the Simulacrum Nexus of Mengzhou, the new area reached through Chapter 4 Act 4. The Nexus holds 50: 34 in and around Mengxuan Vale, the settlement at its centre, and 16 near the Heart of Flames and the Heart of Stillness. The Huaxu Apothecary in Xuanfang Hold sells another 15 a week at 3,000 Shell Credit each, which takes you to 65 in the first week, more than the 60 Hsin needs. Her Resonator Skill Tutorial adds 5 more, though it only opens once Hsin is on your account.
Unlike Suisui’s Flowborne Dream, Bloom of Hearkening does not hold you back: the Nexus and one week of shop stock cover it. Remnant of the Wheel is the only real wait.
Hsin materials FAQ
How much Shell Credit does Hsin need?
3,053,300 in total: 170,000 for the six ascension ranks, 2,030,000 for the full Forte tree, and 853,300 to level her from 1 to 90.
Does that number include her weapon?
No. The in-game material overview counts the character and the weapon together, which is why it shows a larger figure. A five-star weapon adds roughly 1,400,000 Shell Credit on top.
How many Remnant of the Wheel does Hsin need?
26, all from the weekly boss Suhsin the Inevitable in the Simulacrum Nexus of Mengzhou.
What takes the longest to farm?
Remnant of the Wheel. The weekly boss caps how many you can take home each reset, so 26 drops spread across several weeks no matter how much Waveplate you burn.
Which materials does Hsin share with her weapon?
The four String materials. Autopuppet Kernel is for Hsin, Exoswarm Core is for the weapon.
Figures come from Version 3.7 data and match the cost frame every five-star resonator follows. Shell Credit totals assume no wasted EXP when levelling; feeding whole potions adds roughly 3%.
