Summary
RecentHonkai: Star Railleaks have suggested that Version 3.4 will primarily rerun Harmony characters.Honkai: Star Rail’s next update will also debut Phainon, a 5-Star Physical unit of the Destruction path that is said to shift the game’s current meta.
Honkai: Star RailVersion 3.4will potentially be the game’s biggest update yet. Not only is the patch featuring the long-awaitedFate/Stay Nightcollaboration, but it’s also adding Phainon to the playable roster. The Chrysos Heir is arguably the most anticipated unit of the Amphoreus saga, and leaks about his kit have teased him as the next best DPS in the RPG. Now, recent leaks have potentially revealed which characters would join Phainon in the update’s limited banners, as well as details about Saber and Archer’s banners.
A leak from the reliable Sakura Haven has teased whichunits rerunning in Version 3.4, suggesting that Sunday, Tribbie, and Sparkle would make a comeback along with Phainon’s debut. Per the leak, these banners are still subject to change. However, all three mentioned units are among thebest support characters inHonkai: Star Rail, so pairing them with Phainon could be a good strategy for the game. On the other hand, another leak from the same source shareddetails about theFate/Stay Nightevent, revealing that Saber and Archer’s banners will work with the same pity system as traditional ones. In other words, players will pull for them using Special Passes, but have a 50/50 chance of obtaining the limitedFate/Stay Nightunit. Additionally, their signature Light Cones have a 75/25 win ratio.
Honkai: Star Rail Leak Teases Version 3.4 Banners
If the leaks turn out to be true, Tribbie’s first rerun would be sooner than anticipated, considering that she debuted in Version 3.1. However, HoYoverse has opted to rerun Amphoreus characters quite fast in recent updates. For example,Honkai: Star Rail’s Version 3.3 bannershave The Herta and Aglaea, who both debuted in the 3.0 update. It seems upcoming patches could rerun newer units more often than not.
Moreover, it is worth noting thatHonkai: Star Railpreviously confirmed that theFate/Stay Nightbanners will be separate from other limited banners. This means that players' current pity count won’t apply to Saber and Archer’s banners, but they will build a new independent count instead.Honkai: Star Railis gifting Saber to all playersas well from July 11 to the end of Version 3.6.
