Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor is a four-piece Cavern Relic set added in Version 4.6. Farm it from Cavern of Corrosion: Path of the Secret Actor, introduced with the Life Sciences Institute content. Its two-piece bonus grants 6% SPD; four pieces boost the Elation of an ally you target with your Skill or Ultimate and can add a teamwide CRIT DMG buff if the wearer has enough Certified Banger.
Pearl is its standout user because her kit involves supporting a chosen ally and managing Certified Banger. The set is less convincing on a character who cannot target another teammate with the required ability, even if that character benefits from Speed. Here’s exactly what triggers the bonuses, where the pieces drop and which main stats are useful.
Where to farm Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor

Open the Interastral Guide’s Cavern of Corrosion section and find Path of the Secret Actor. This is the new Version 4.6 Cavern associated with the Life Sciences Institute area. Choose an unlocked difficulty, clear the enemies and claim the reward to receive a chance at Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor pieces. The same Cavern also drops The Edacious Heretic, so both sets compete for rewards in each run.
Select the Cavern in the Interastral Guide to track it, or navigate to its marker in the Life Sciences Institute once the area is accessible. If it is not listed, check whether you’ve opened the relevant area and unlocked the stage; completing normal story exploration is not equivalent to claiming a Cavern reward.
At normal cost, a Cavern run spends 40 Trailblaze Power when you claim the drops. You can also use the Relic synthesis system to create eligible pieces with crafting materials. If you want to control a particular main stat, check whether you have a Self-Modeling Resin for the chosen slot instead of repeatedly farming for the same piece.
Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor: Exact two-piece and four-piece bonuses
| Set | Bonus |
|---|---|
| Two pieces | SPD increases by 6%. |
| Four pieces | After the wearer uses Skill or Ultimate on one other ally target, that target’s Elation increases by 16% for 3 turns. |
| Four-piece extra condition | If the wearer holds at least 10 Certified Banger points, all allies also gain 12% CRIT DMG for 3 turns. |
These are the released Version 4.6 set effects. The Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor four-piece bonus is a targeted-support trigger. It does not automatically activate because the wearer presses any Skill, nor does it buff every ally’s Elation. The direct 16% Elation increase goes to the other ally selected by the Skill or Ultimate.
The 12% team CRIT DMG bonus has an extra requirement: the wearer must hold at least ten Certified Banger points when the support effect triggers. A support that never generates those points cannot expect to provide the entire four-piece package. Watch Pearl’s resource during fights instead of assuming the bonus stays active permanently.
Best characters for Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor

Pearl is the clearest match for Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor in Version 4.6. Her DEF-based kit uses Certified Banger for damage protection and can advance a selected ally’s action. That makes the four-piece targeted Elation buff and the extra team CRIT DMG both relevant. The Pearl Best Build guide covers the Light Cone, Planar ornaments and team compositions that pair well with this set.
Outside Pearl, check whether the character can target one other ally with a Skill or Ultimate. Without that trigger, the four-piece does not deliver its main Elation support bonus. For other units, two Dreamlit pieces can be a convenient Speed option, but forcing the entire set may perform worse than a four-piece bonus that fits their real rotation.
Main stats and substats for Pearl
| Set | Bonus |
|---|---|
| Body | Outgoing Healing Boost or DEF% |
| Feet | SPD |
| Planar Sphere | DEF% |
| Link Rope | Energy Regeneration Rate |
| Substats | SPD and DEF% first, then useful survivability |
The four Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor Cavern pieces are head, hands, body and feet; the sphere and rope are separate Planar Ornaments. That means farming this Cavern cannot give you the Planar Sphere or Link Rope shown in the recommended build. Farm those in an Ornament Extraction activity instead.
Speed is valuable because Pearl needs to take actions and keep her support effects active, while DEF strengthens her defensive functions and the healing on her signature Light Cone. Outgoing Healing body is a good fit if your team needs sustain; a strong DEF body can be a temporary choice if your farming rolls are poor.
Relic farming priority and when to stop
Start with an equippable four-piece Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor set: fixed head and hand pieces, SPD boots and an appropriate body. Don’t spend weeks searching for ideal substats before Pearl can contribute to your team. Once those slots function, prioritise a useful Energy Regeneration rope, then improve Speed and DEF rolls piece by piece.
When comparing individual Relics, remember that a two-piece SPD bonus alone is not the main reason Pearl prefers this set. The four-piece targeted Elation buff is what makes it distinctive. If you are missing a usable four-piece, a temporary mixture of supportive Relic sets can carry the character while you continue farming.
Does Planar Fissure drop Dreamlit Actor?
No. Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor is a Cavern Relic set. Planar Fissure doubles eligible Planar Ornament rewards and does not grant extra Cavern pieces. For the new Version 4.6 Cavern, spend Trailblaze Power in Path of the Secret Actor. Our Life Sciences Institute guide covers the surrounding map, while the Version 4.6 banner guide has Pearl’s current Warp end date.
If you also have her five-star Light Cone, the Pearl build guide explains how the extra DEF and team healing complement the Honkai Star Rail Dreamlit Actor effects. The 4.6 achievements guide covers other activities in the same update.
