2⭐ elements drop out during the age of the cave on I and II difficulties.
3⭐ can be given for tests from I to V difficulty.
4⭐ are found at all levels. With a small probability, you can get it on difficulties I and II, from III to V the chance increases significantly, and with VI they are guaranteed to appear.
5⭐ are opened from III to VI difficulty, but with different chances.

Try to get items of the highest rarity in order to get the most out of the set. New stages of the dungeon open along with the increase level of balance.

The second reliable way to get - Synthesis of relics. You can get one of the selected set items from the Wreckage. Told in a separate article on relics, how the fusion mechanic works in the game.

How the Genius of Diamond Stars works

Half a set will increase quantum damage by 10%. With a full set, the character ignores 10% of the opponent's defense. If the enemy has a quantum vulnerability, then in total the owner of the set will ignore 20% of defense and deal more damage.

Suitable for basic damage dealers with a quantum type of combat, it shows itself better against enemies with a quantum vulnerability. However, a good penetration effect can also be achieved against opponents with other types of vulnerabilities.

Set Bonuses

2 parts: Increases quantum damage by 10%.

4 parts: When attacking, ignores 10% of the enemy's defense. If the marked opponent has a quantum vulnerability, then the character equipped with this set additionally ignores another 10% of defense.

Features

All additional stats drop randomly and can expand as the relic is upgraded. The base stats on the head and arms do not change, but in the other two parts of the set they are also assigned randomly.

Below we give in detail all the possible indicators for 5⭐ relics:

Head - Genius's Ultra Long Range Visor.

Hands - Genius Frequency Booster.

Body - Genius suit for immersion in the metafield.

The legs are the gravity skates of a genius.

Now this is the only true version of relics for quantum heroes. It can be completely replaced with another set, such as the Wild Wheat Shooter, but the effectiveness will be significantly lower.

Who is the Genius of Diamond Stars in Honkai: Star Rail suitable for?

The set is well honed for characters with a quantum type of combat, since two of its parts increase the power of the elements. The carriers should be the main damage dealers or secondary damage dealers, the main task of which is to cause damage. Combines well with the Paths of Erudite, Hunt and Destruction.

Character	Features
Seele	The best character to give the relics to is the Genius of the Diamond Stars. She deals massive damage to a single target, but thanks to a ive buff, she increases the number of her moves when defeating an enemy. The set will help her break through the defense of opponents and increase the chances of getting an extra turn.
qingque	The second hero who also needs this set. She specializes in AoE damage, but is endowed with complex mechanics. Due to random bone drops, her attack power can sag noticeably on the battlefield. A set of relics will help her to pierce opponents more often and deal higher damage.
Xueyi	An ideal set of Cave Relics for Xueya, which will be effective against both enemies with and without quantum vulnerability, since the girl always drains durability with a superpower, as well as a bonus attack if she has E2.
Silver Wolf	Along with such sets as "The Falling Meteor Thief", acts as a good option for a girl if she is in the position of a secondary damage dealer, and not just a debuffer. The set will increase the damage dealt after using the ultimate ability, basic attack and, of course, the skill.
jingliu	A situational set of relics that, when assembled correctly, can be extremely effective. What is important here is the bonus to ignoring enemy defense, which is realized if: put the Jingliu signature (also ignores defense), take Determination shines like pearls of sweat.". Thus, the heroine's damage will increase significantly.
Argenti	A situational set of cave “artifacts” that can be extremely effective on Argenti. To fully implement the kit, it is essential to have: E6 on Argenti (using a superpower ignores 30% of the enemy's defense); Pelu or Silver Wolf in the squad: the intelligence officer of the Silver-maned Guardians reduces the defense of all opponents after using a superpower, the Stellaron hunter, in turn, has a 75% chance of applying a negative effect to reduce the defense of the basic attack (or attack power / speed) and with 85% chance of an ultimate skill. Additionally, it is extremely important to equip the light cone "Resolve Glistens Like Pearls of Sweat" on the chosen representative of the Path of Nothingness. Thus, the damage coming from the Knight of Pure Beauty will increase significantly.
Doctor Ratio	As with Jingliu or Argenti, the set can be equipped as an alternative if the hero has his signature Light cone, which allows the character's bonus attack to ignore a certain percentage of the enemy's defense.
Rappa	Ninja deals most of his damage via penetration, which is heavily influenced by his defense cut. This makes this set of relics a good alternative to Iron Cavalry vs. Invasion, especially when opponents are vulnerable to quantum.
Tribby	Tribby can use the set as a valid replacement in both "slow" and "fast" builds. Despite the fact that she is a character of the Path of Harmony, she is not limited to only applying buffs and is capable of dealing good damage. In this regard, the quantum set fits her quite well, regardless of the build, although it is inferior to key sets in their niche.
Kastoria	The set is inferior to the "Elegy Singing Rhapsodist", but is a good alternative if you have the right parts. It is especially good in combination with the heroine's signature cone, since it similarly reduces the defense of opponents. In addition, it does not require certain speed values.
