The Trailblazer is the main protagonist of Honkai: Star Rail, and while they begin as a Physical damage attacker on the Path of Destruction, they’ll eventually unlock a new form that places them on the Path of Preservation and enhances their attacks with Fire damage. This form is unlocked after completing the Belobog storyline, the first major arc of the game’s story, and the Fire Trailblazer is one of the best free-to-play tanks in the game outside of March 7th. Unlocking their Eidolons can be a bit confusing though, so here’s how you can get all 6 of them and get the Preservation Trailblazer to E6.
How to Get Fire Traiblazer Eidolons in Honkai Star Rail
The good news is that activating all 6 Eidolons is straightforward — although it will take some time to complete. You’ll need a Shadow of Preservation to unlock a new Eidolon level for the Fire Trailblazer, and these can be obtained via main story progression or by purchasing them.

How to Get Fire Trailblazer Eidolons from Quests
Two Shadows of Preservation can be obtained for free by completing Trailblaze Missions. The first free Shadow of Preservation is rewarded for completing the Level 34 Trailblaze Mission “Humming Antlers, Entwined Horns,” which is the final quest of Honkai Star Rail version 1.0. The second free Shadow of Preservation is unlocked by completing the Trailblaze Mission “A Dragon Gallant, Its Ocean Distant.” This is the final quest of the Xianzhou Luofu storyline and the final quest of Honkai Star Rail version 1.2.
Where to Buy Shadows of Preservation
The remaining 4 Shadows of Preservation can be purchased with Strale, the Xianzhou Luofu regional currency, at the Jeweler’s Pagoda store in the Central Starskiff Haven part of the Xianzhou Luofu. Each one will set you back 250 Strale, so you’ll need to save up a whopping 1000 Strale if you want all of them. To get more Strale, simply complete activities in the Xianzhou Luofu region.
