Honkai Star Rail Top Up Guide - Buy Oneiric Shards in Saudi Arabia

Playing Honkai: Star Rail and need to top up for the next limited banner? This guide explains the game's currency system, how to top up using your UID from Saudi Arabia, and when to buy to get the best value for your money.

Understanding the Currency System

Honkai: Star Rail has two main currencies you need to understand:

Oneiric Shards

This is the currency you buy with real money. Oneiric Shards convert to Stellar Jade at a 1:1 ratio (100 Shards = 100 Jade). Shards are never used directly in-game; they always convert to Jade first.

Stellar Jade

The primary in-game currency used for everything that matters:

• Star Rail Special Pass: Warp tickets for pulling on limited character and Light Cone banners. Each pull costs 160 Jade
• Trailblaze Power refill: Replenish your stamina to run more domains and bosses
• Shop purchases: Certain items available in the in-game shop

The flow is simple: buy Oneiric Shards with real money > convert them to Stellar Jade > use Jade to pull for characters and Light Cones.

First-Time Top-Up Bonus (Double Value)

This is the single most important piece of information for new players: the first time you top up any tier, you receive double the Shards.

For example, if you buy the 300 Shard package for the first time, you get 600 Shards. This bonus applies once per tier. If there are 6 tiers, you can get the double bonus 6 times (once for each tier).

Tip: Use the first-time bonus on every tier. This is the best value you will ever get in the game, and it never comes back once used.

Express Supply Pass: Is It Worth It?

The Express Supply Pass is the game's monthly subscription:

• Cost: Roughly equivalent to the smallest Shard package
• Daily reward: 90 Stellar Jade per day for 30 days = 2,700 Jade
• Instant bonus: 300 Jade immediately upon purchase
• Total: Approximately 3,000 Jade (~18+ pulls)

Compared to buying Shards directly, the Express Supply Pass gives you over 5 times the value. The only requirement is logging in daily to collect your Jade.

If you play HSR daily, the Express Supply Pass is the best investment you can make after using your first-time top-up bonuses.

How to Top Up Honkai: Star Rail on Cardni

Cardni offers two methods:

1. Instant UID-Based Top-Up

From the instant top-up page:

1. Select the Shard package you want
2. Enter your UID (player number)
3. Select the correct server
4. Pay and wait - Shards arrive within minutes

How to find your UID:

1. Open Honkai: Star Rail
2. Tap the settings icon or the Phone menu in the top-left corner
3. Your UID (a 9-digit number) is displayed at the bottom of the screen or on your profile page

Choosing the correct server:

• America: For accounts registered on the American server
• Europe: For European accounts
• Asia: For Asian accounts
• TW/HK/MO: Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau

Most Saudi players are on the America or Asia server. If unsure, check the first digit of your UID: 6 = America, 7 = Europe, 8 = Asia.

2. Recharge Codes

You can purchase recharge codes and redeem them in-game or through the official HoYoverse website.

Best Time to Top Up

Timing matters significantly in Honkai: Star Rail:

• Before a limited banner you want: Each patch features limited 5-star characters. If you want a specific character, prepare your Jade before the banner launches
• Start of a new patch: Each major update brings free events that award bonus Jade. Your top-up combined with free Jade maximizes your pulls
• When you're near pity: The pity system guarantees a 5-star character within 90 pulls maximum (real average is 75-80). If you're close to pity but short on Jade, that's the ideal time to top up
• First-time bonus window: If you haven't used your first-time bonuses yet, use them now for double value

Comparison with Genshin Impact for Players Who Play Both

If you also play Genshin Impact, this comparison helps translate your understanding:

The systems are nearly identical because both games are made by HoYoverse. If you understand one, you already understand the other.
