The Wishpower event is one of Version 4.6’s more unusual Honkai: Star Rail activities because it is tied directly to the new Voracity Corrosion mechanic rather than being another isolated minigame. Players are asked to fight enemies affected by that corruption and build a separate event resource while the wider version is already introducing several other systems. It is easy to miss how the event connects to those systems if you only skim the event menu.
There is also a strong reason to understand the Wishpower event early instead of leaving it until the final days. Its rewards include currency used by the Astral Imagea system as well as a sizeable Stellar Jade payout, and Voracity Corrosion is not restricted to one small event stage. The mechanic also appears in other Version 4.6 combat content, so learning what the event wants from your team has value beyond a single reward screen.

The Wishpower event is available during Version 4.6 and requires the Adventure Mission Calyx (Golden): Bud of Memories to be completed before the relevant activity becomes available. The event is scheduled to remain open until November 11 at 06:00 UTC+8. Its headline rewards include 500 Stellar Jade, 18 Trendible Vouchers and a commemorative medal, alongside the normal progression materials attached to the activity.
Those 18 Trendible Vouchers are particularly important because they feed into Astral Trendible, the draw system used for Astral Imagea. That makes the Wishpower event part of a wider Version 4.6 progression loop rather than a one-and-done combat diversion. Anyone interested in collecting Imagea should therefore treat the event as a priority source of vouchers instead of relying only on the smaller login allocation.
How the Wishpower event works
The core idea is to defeat enemies affected by Voracity Corrosion and accumulate Wishpower as you progress. Corroded enemies are designed to be tackled with the event’s special combat advantages in mind, so a team that looks comfortable in ordinary overworld combat may behave differently once the corruption effects are active. The event rewards players for understanding that interaction rather than simply throwing the highest combat power team at every stage.
Voracity Corrosion also appears in Divergent Universe and Currency Wars during Version 4.6. That is useful context because the Wishpower event acts as a practical introduction to the mechanic before players meet it elsewhere. If a particular enemy interaction feels unfamiliar, pay attention to the stage description and any temporary buffs rather than assuming the base version of that enemy behaves in exactly the same way.
Best way to clear Down with Voracity stages
Before entering a stage, check the listed weaknesses and the event modifiers, then choose a team that can reach the required break or damage windows without collapsing defensively. The Wishpower event does not reward reckless play if that means losing characters or wasting actions recovering from a poor opening. A stable team that exploits the stage rule is usually more useful than a theoretically stronger composition that cannot interact with the mechanic efficiently.
Save large bursts for the point where the stage has actually made the enemy vulnerable. This is especially important for players who are also working on Apocalyptic Shadow, because Version 4.6 broadly rewards deliberate timing around protected or altered enemy states. Treat every failed attempt as a clue about whether the problem is weakness coverage, sustain, timing or raw damage rather than immediately rebuilding the entire team.
How to use the Wishpower event rewards
Stellar Jade can be claimed in the usual way once the relevant event objectives are complete, while Trendible Vouchers should be viewed as a separate collection resource. The vouchers are spent through Astral Trendible for Astral Imagea, linking the Wishpower event directly to the new pet and trading system. If you are collecting specific Imagea, those vouchers are the part of the reward list that can influence your Version 4.6 plans the most.
The commemorative medal is more of a completion marker, so there is little reason to prioritise it over unfinished reward objectives if time is short. Clear the stages and milestones that award Stellar Jade and Trendible Vouchers first, then return for any remaining completion goals. That order protects the most useful rewards without forcing unnecessary repeats at the end of the event.
Common Wishpower event mistakes
The biggest mistake is treating the activity as disconnected from the rest of Version 4.6. Players who ignore the voucher reward can end up short on Astral Imagea pulls later, while players who ignore Voracity Corrosion can make the combat feel harder than it needs to be. Read the stage rules, bring appropriate weakness coverage and keep the reward milestones visible while you clear.
It is also worth avoiding last-day grinding if possible. The Wishpower event has enough value tied to its vouchers and Stellar Jade that spreading the work across the event window is safer than leaving every objective for one session. Once the core mechanic clicks, the activity becomes much easier to plan, and the same understanding carries into the other Version 4.6 modes where Voracity Corrosion appears.
