Both sets hit servers November 4-5, 2025. Here's the thing though: Amphoreus is absolutely worth the grind, while Tengoku's more of a if you main specific characters situation.
New Planar Meta: Version 3.7 Ornament Overview
Look, I've been covering HSR content for years now, and these two sets are genuinely shifting how we think about team composition. Both farm from the new Divergent Universe location—Radiant Feldspar in Penacony, if you're keeping track—at the usual 40 Trailblaze Power or 1 Immersifier per run.
Release hits November 4 for NA servers, November 5 for EU/Asia. Pretty standard rollout.
What's not standard? These sets are launching right alongside the Relic Recon event (November 5 - December 15, 2025). That's 120 Access Cards for guaranteed +15 five-star relics, which... yeah, that's huge. Honkai Star Rail top up to farm planar ornaments faster through BitTopup's platform if you want consistent daily farming without the resource anxiety. Their pricing's competitive and delivery's instant—no waiting around for Stellar Jade.
Amphoreus, The Eternal Land: Memosprite Synergy Powerhouse
Set Effects and Mechanics
Amphoreus gives the wearer +8% CRIT Rate. Simple enough. But here's where it gets interesting—when you've got a memosprite active, your entire team gets +8% SPD.
The speed buff doesn't stack (because that would be broken), but it applies team-wide. This set's basically designed for Remembrance path characters who live and breathe memosprites.
Priority Characters for Amphoreus
Trailblazer (Ice) - Priority 1: This is a no-brainer. TB(Ice) deploys memosprites like it's going out of style, and the speed buff keeps your team cycling efficiently while the personal CRIT Rate actually makes their damage respectable.
Hyacine - Priority 2: Hyacine's memosprite uptime is solid, and that speed boost? It's filling crucial gaps if you're running 180-200 SPD builds. Her kit loves team-wide buffs anyway, so Amphoreus feels almost mandatory.
Evernight - Priority 2: Ice Remembrance hybrid who gets ridiculous value from both effects. Pair this with World-Remaking Deliverer relics (+24% Max HP from memosprite abilities, +15% team DMG) and Evernight starts scaling through HP-based damage like nobody's business.
Cyrene - Priority 3: Those Demigod buffs while maintaining memosprite presence? Yeah, it works. Especially good for builds sitting under 200 SPD where that team speed boost creates actual action advantages.
Tengoku@Livestream: Skill Point Consumption Specialist
Set Mechanics and Activation
Tengoku starts you off with +16% CRIT DMG. Decent, but not earth-shattering.
The magic happens when you burn three or more skill points in a single turn—suddenly you're looking at +32% additional CRIT DMG for three turns. That's 48% total CRIT DMG potential. The catch? You need careful SP management and team comp planning.
Optimal Characters for Tengoku
Archer - Priority 1: Archer's skill eats exactly three skill points, making Tengoku best-in-slot. Period. The damage scaling with 48% total CRIT DMG bonus is honestly disgusting. Just... don't use this if you're already running BananAmusement Park. That's redundant.
Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae (DHIL) - Priority 2: DHIL's Enhanced Basic Attack drains three SP, triggering Tengoku's conditional perfectly. The sustained CRIT DMG boost pushes his damage ceiling in hypercarry comps to frankly ridiculous levels.
Quick aside here—Buy Honkai Star Rail Stellar Jade for endgame relic farming through BitTopup if you're serious about optimizing these builds. With events like Relic Recon running limited-time windows, you can't afford to miss farming days due to resource shortages.
Qingque - Priority 3: QQ's jade tile mechanics can consume multiple skill points during optimal rotation windows. She can trigger Tengoku's effect when the stars align, making it a viable alternative to traditional CRIT DMG sets. Though honestly? It's situational.
Farming Priority Analysis: Resource Allocation Strategy
High Priority: Amphoreus Investment
Amphoreus gets high farming priority because it's universally applicable across Remembrance teams. I'm recommending 240 Trailblaze Power daily (six Cavern runs) toward Amphoreus domains initially.
The synergy with World-Remaking Deliverer relics creates builds for characters like Evernight who scale with HP while providing team support. It's just... really good design.
Medium Priority: Tengoku Considerations
Tengoku gets medium priority due to niche application. If you've got established BananAmusement Park builds? Skip Tengoku entirely.
For players targeting Archer, DHIL, or Qingque as primary DPS units, that 48% CRIT DMG potential significantly outperforms standard options. But it's character-specific.
Build Optimization: Stats and Substats
Amphoreus Build Guidelines
Main stats you want: Body (CRIT DMG), Feet (HP% for scaling characters, SPD for others), Sphere (Element DMG% or HP%), Rope (HP% for scaling units, Energy Regeneration for others).
Substat priorities: CRIT DMG > HP% > SPD > CRIT Rate.
Target ranges for +15 five-star pieces: HP% 20.74-25.92%, SPD 12-15.6, CRIT DMG 31.1-38.88%. These numbers matter more than you'd think.
Tengoku Build Strategies
Main stats shift here: Body (CRIT Rate), Feet (SPD), Sphere (Element DMG%), Rope (ATK% or Energy Regeneration).
Substat priorities flip to CRIT Rate > SPD > ATK% > CRIT DMG. Since Tengoku's providing substantial CRIT DMG, achieving proper CRIT Rate ratios becomes crucial for consistent damage output.
Event Integration: Relic Recon Synergy
The Relic Recon event (November 5 - December 15, 2025) hands out 120 Access Cards for guaranteed +15 five-star relics. Every eighth chest guarantees maximum enhancement level.
That's... significant upgrade cost reduction. Combining daily domain farming with Relic Recon participation maximizes efficiency in ways we haven't seen before.
Advanced Synergies: Set Combinations
Amphoreus Synergistic Builds
Amphoreus pairs exceptionally with World-Remaking Deliverer relics for Remembrance characters. The combination provides +16% CRIT Rate total and substantial team buffs through memosprite interactions.
Characters like Evernight hit 5000+ Max HP thresholds for additional scaling bonuses. It's genuinely impressive scaling.
Tengoku Optimization Strategies
Tengoku works best as standalone 2-piece rather than mixed combinations. For characters like Archer with guaranteed skill point consumption, pure Tengoku builds maximize damage potential.
Just ensure your team compositions provide adequate skill point generation through supports and efficient rotations. SP management becomes crucial.
FAQ
Q: Which set should I prioritize farming first in Version 3.7? Farm Amphoreus first. High universal value across Remembrance teams and broader applicability than Tengoku's niche focus.
Q: Can multiple characters use Amphoreus in the same team? Yes, but the +8% SPD buff doesn't stack. Multiple users still benefit from individual +8% CRIT Rate though.
Q: Is Tengoku worth farming if I don't have Archer or DHIL? Medium priority for Qingque users, low priority otherwise. Skip Tengoku if you have established CRIT DMG sets like BananAmusement Park.
Q: What's the minimum skill point consumption for Tengoku's bonus? Exactly 3 skill points in a single turn triggers the +32% CRIT DMG bonus for 3 turns. That's 48% total CRIT DMG.
Q: Do these sets work with non-Remembrance characters? Amphoreus requires memosprites for the speed buff, limiting effectiveness to Remembrance users. Tengoku works with any character meeting the skill point threshold.
Q: How does the Relic Recon event affect farming strategy? Focus on domain farming during the event period for guaranteed +15 enhancement levels. Use Access Cards strategically for main stat targeting and exceptional pieces.
