Certain NPCs in Amphoreus also grant Memory Crystal Shard upon first interaction with players. Three of the notable NPCs are Demetria and Kyros in Marmoreal Market and Xenia, the Bath Receptionist near the Overflowing Bath Space Anchor. Of course, it doesn't come free. Trailblazers need to buy something from them before they can get the crystal sh
The upcoming Honkai: Star Rail banner in version 3.4 will feature Phainon . On July 11, the Fate collab will also begin, so players can pull for Saber and Archer. The Fate banners will last until the end of HSR
Honkai: Star Rail is a game that strongly prioritizes making each character feel satisfying to use in their own right. For this reason, there are very few who feel truly unviable. Even though this is the thinnest tier by far, there are still a few characters that players would be better off leaving by the ways
Players who are interested in knowing who's currently featured on the Warp Banner, who will be in the next banner, and who has been featured in the past banner, can check out this article. This piece also includes a complete Honkai: Star Rail banner hist
As a live-service gacha game, Honkai: Star Rail is an ever-changing game with a complex metagame. There are multiple game modes, and it is important to understand which characters are the best for overcoming every challenge Honkai: Star Rail has to offer. Aside from the seven paths in-game, characters are generally considered within three party roles: Single Target DPS, AoE DPS, and Sust
When struck by a killing blow after entering battle, instead of becoming knocked down, Arlan immediately restores his HP to 25% of his Max HP. This effect is automatically removed after it is triggered once or after 2 turns have elap
The main contributor to his damage is his Talent, which enhances his Basic ATK with every two stacks of Fighting Will , gained by using his Basic ATK, Skill, and Ultimate. Luka's enhanced Basic ATK causes existing Bleeds on the target, including ones from Break and Genshin Impact Secret Source Automaton allies, to instantly deal a large percentage of their original damage, without consuming their durat
NPCs are not the only people who will reward Trailblazers with the Memory Crystal Shard. The Flame-Chaser Heroes can also be seen around the "Eternal Holy City" Okhema after completing the Trailblaze Mission in Amphoreus. By talking to each of them, players will get one crystal sh
Memory Crystal Shard is a limited currency in _Honkai: Star Rail _ and can only be obtained by exploring Amphoreus. Currently, this currency only has two uses: it can be spent on buying items in Janus' Steed and offering to Garmentmaker to locate Creation Nymphs in respective sub-areas of Amphor
Her Skill deals damage and applies Burden (not counted as a debuff) to a single target. Allies gain a Skill Point for every two Basic ATK, Skill, or Ultimate used on that target, with Burden disappearing after two Skill Points are gained this way. The damage from Hanya's first application of Burden counts towards this effect, so the team will only need three more actions on the target to trigger both Skill Points. Unfortunately, recasting her Skill before both Skill Points are recovered resets the cou
Dromas is a special animal that can only be seen in Amphoreus. The developers provide a new experience in Honkai: Star Rail by allowing players to ride on top of Dromas. Trailblazers can summon a Dromas by using a bell at any Dromas station in Okhema, and once the ride has arrived, they can choose the option to get on top of the animal. After the first try of the new ride, players will get 1 Memory Crystal Shard as a rew
Living Flames of Georios is a small floating torch scattered throughout Amphoreus. There are a total of 8 of them in "Eternal Holy City" Okhema , and by fulfilling their wish, players will get certain prizes, with the first time rewarding a Memory Crystal Shard. If players manage to find 8 of the living flames, they will get the 'Philosopher' achievem
A-Tier characters are extremely capable, though may simply require a higher level of investment to fit onto a team. However, they are often worth the investment, often serving as the center of a given team composition. If a player wants to run a meta team, but finds themself lacking one of the game's S-Tier characters, there are no shortage of characters within the A-Tier who can meet their ne
Fire Trailblazer is a remarkable improvement to their Physical counterpart. Their ability to provide shields and draw aggro means they at least serve a unique role on any given team. However, they are still somewhat lackluster in comparison to March 7th. When the player gets both for free, and one much earlier than the other, it's hard to justify using the Fire Trailblazer long-t
Gallagher's main strength revolves around the use of his Ultimate, which applies Besotted to all targets hit and enhances his next Basic ATK. Targets afflicted with Besotted receive increased Break DMG, and allies that attack them are healed. This makes Gallagher the first character in Honkai: Star Rail to directly provide an increase to Break DMG , previously only influenced by Break Eff
