Astral Terminal

What is Astral Terminal?

Astral Terminal reads the public Character Showcase of a Genshin Impact or Honkai: Star Rail account, scores the builds on it, and ranks them against everyone else’s builds for the same character. Type in a UID and you’ll see that account’s characters, their gear, and how they stack up.

The data comes from Enka.Network, which reads what the game itself shows on your profile. That means the site can only see the characters you’ve put in your in-game showcase, and the showcase has to be public (it’s an option in your in-game profile settings) for anything to show up.

Right now that’s Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail. The other icons up top are games we might add later, and they keep a SOON badge until then.

How do I use it?

• Pick a game from the icons above.
• Type a UID and press ENTER. Your UID is the number in the bottom-right corner of the game screen, not your username.
• You’ll land on the account’s Characters tab. The other tabs have the Artifacts (Relics in Star Rail) with a score for each piece, the Leaderboards where each build places, and an Overview.
• The search box remembers the UIDs you’ve looked up, so next time it’s one click. That list only lives in your browser, and CLEAR HISTORY at the bottom of the dropdown wipes it.

Good to know

• You can’t rescan a UID every few seconds. A UID can be scanned fresh once every couple of minutes. In between, you’ll see the last scan instead of an error.
• Characters don’t vanish when you change your showcase. The game only shows a few at a time, but the site keeps every character it has seen on a UID. Swap your showcase, scan again, and the roster grows. Older scans are marked with when they were taken.

None of this needs an account. There’s also a guided tour of the site, but that one does, since it remembers where you stopped. Once you’re signed in, it’s in the menu at the top right under “Take the tour”.

No UID handy? Browse the leaderboards or try the stamina and gacha calculators. Anyone can use them.

Do I need an account?

Not to look things up. Scanning UIDs, reading builds, scoring artifacts, browsing the leaderboards and the calculators all work without signing in, and that won’t change.

An account is for the things that need to remember you:

• A dashboard with your game accounts, the scanner and your trackers in one place, laid out how you like.
• An Astral Profile, a public page about you rather than about one game account: your linked UIDs, best placements, a status quote, badges, and a link to share.
• Up to 3 UIDs per game linked to your profile, so you don’t have to keep typing them.
• Your name on the leaderboards. Every scanned build gets ranked, but only a verified UID shows its entries under your profile (more on that below).
• The Pull Tracker. Import your wish or warp history and it keeps track of your pity, each banner and your 50/50s. Without an account there’s nowhere to save any of that.
• Pinned profiles, so the people you compare builds with are one click away.
• XP, levels and cosmetics. Using the site earns XP, and levels unlock avatar frames, namecards and profile backgrounds. XP comes from how many different characters you’ve put on boards, not from how much damage they do, so you can’t buy your way up with constellations.
• The guided tour, which remembers how far you got on any device and gives you XP when you finish.

Verifying a UID

Linking a UID adds it to your profile. Verifying it proves it’s actually yours: you get a one-time code, put it in your in-game Signature, and the site reads it back from your public profile, the same way the scanner reads your showcase. The site will never ask for your HoYoverse login or password.

How do the leaderboards work?

Each ranked character has one or more scenarios: a set team, weapon, rotation and enemy. Your build (stats, talents and artifacts) is run through that scenario with the board’s weapon swapped in, and what comes out is a damage number. Everyone on a board gets the same scenario, so two entries only differ by their builds.

• Boards are split by constellation (eidolon in Star Rail), so C0 builds aren’t up against C6 ones. A C2 board takes C2 and above. Not every character has a board for every constellation; some stop at C2 or lower.
• You get a percentile as well as a position. “Top 3%” means the same thing on a board of 50 or of 5,000, and “#12” doesn’t.
• You don’t need an account to be ranked. Opening a UID’s Leaderboards tab scores its showcase and places the builds. Verifying the UID puts your name on them.
• If you unlink a UID later, its entries stay on the boards without your name, so nobody else’s rank moves.

What do you store?

• Only what the game already shows publicly: your showcase characters and their gear, your in-game name and level. If it’s not on your public in-game profile, it’s not here.
• No game logins. A UID is a public number, and verifying is just a code in your signature. Nothing here needs your account password.
• Looking up other people’s UIDs is fine. That’s what the showcase is for, and anyone can look up yours too, same as in-game.
• Astral Profiles are public. Anyone with the link can see your username, level, badges, linked UIDs and placements. Nothing else about your account is shown.
• Your wish and warp history is private unless you make that UID’s tracker public. Your pulls still count toward the site-wide stats, but without your name or UID.

Anything else?

If something looks off, a character is missing, or a number doesn’t add up, tell us on Discord. It’s a small site and we read everything that comes in.
