Honkai: Star Rail - Comprehensive Skills, Characters, and Equipment in Patch 1.5

Patch 1.5 of Honkai: Star Rail introduces three new characters: Huohuo, Argenti, and Hanya. Particularly, it's rumored that Silver Wolf will return as a rerun character in the latter half of this version. This is an opportunity for gamers who missed out on this top-tier character during the 1.1 patch release. This rerun event will operate similarly to Seele's banner rerun, where Silver Wolf's character and light helm are completely separate from the banner of new characters.

Hanya

Hanya is a 4-star character with powerful team buffs and the ability to recover combat points for the team. She can replace Tingyun or Pela in some lineups.

Normal attacks deal physical damage based on attack to one enemy.

Combat Technique: Deals physical damage to the enemy and inflicts them with the Burden status. When allies use normal attacks, combat techniques, or ultimates twice on a burdened enemy, immediately restores 1 combat point. Burden applies only to the enemy closest to Hanya's attack and will disappear after restoring 3 combat points.

Ultimate Technique: Increases speed and attack for one ally. Lasts 2 turns.

Talent: Allied damage dealt by normal attacks, combat techniques, or ultimates to enemies with Increased Burden lasts for 2 turns.

Secret Technique: Immediately attacks one enemy. Upon entering battle, inflicts Burden (equivalent to that of combat techniques) on a random enemy.

E1: When an ally with a buff from Hanya's ultimate defeats an enemy, prioritizes Hanya's action by 15%. Activates once per turn.

E2: After using the combat technique, speed increases by 20% for 1 turn.

E3: Increases combat technique level by 2 and normal attack level by 1.

E4: Extends the duration of the ultimate by 1 turn.

E5: Increases ultimate level by 2 and talent level by 2.

E6: When the combat technique hits an enemy with Burden, restores an additional 1 combat point.

Argenti

Argenti is a 5-star physical DPS, with skills somewhat resembling the Explorer's. His techniques deal large AOE damage and have a very high critical rate at soul 0.

• Normal attack deals physical damage based on attack stat to 1 enemy.
• Combat Technique: Inflicts physical damage based on attack stat to all enemies.
• Ultimate Technique: Inflicts physical damage based on attack stat to all enemies. When enhanced, consumes double energy, dealing higher damage and adding 6 times physical damage to a random enemy.
• Talent: When Argenti uses normal attacks, combat techniques, or ultimate, each hit enemy restores energy, 1 Upgrade level, and increases critical rate. This effect can be stacked up to 10 levels.
• Secret Technique: Puts enemies in the area into Stunned state. When attacking a Stunned target, enters combat, inflicting physical damage to enemies and restoring energy for Argenti.

• E1: Each Upgrade level increases critical damage by 4%.
• E2: When the ultimate hits 3 or more enemies, increase attack for 1 round.
• E3: Increases combat technique level by 2 and talent level by 2.
• E4: Receives 2 Upgrade levels upon entering battle, and accumulates maximum additional 2 levels of talent.
• E5: Increases ultimate level by 2 and normal attack level by 1.
• E6: When using the ultimate, ignores 30% of enemy defense.

Huohuo

Huohuo is a character who functions as both a healer and a support. Her skill set provides healing in her combat technique, while additional healing in her ultimate requires the 'tranquil' light helm.

• Normal attack inflicts Wind damage on 1 enemy.
• Combat Technique: Removes 1 negative effect from designated ally, restores HP for that ally and nearby targets.
• Ultimate Technique: Restores energy for the entire team (except self) and increases their attack for 2 turns.
• Talent: After using the combat technique, Huohuo gains 12 Layers of Fate. Each time an ally uses the ultimate, 1 layer is consumed to heal, and every ally below 50% HP triggers this healing effect once more and consumes the corresponding layers.
• Secret Technique: Huohuo puts enemies into Scatter state, causing them to flee from Huohuo for 10s. Upon entering battle, enemies have a 100% base chance of reduced attack for 2 rounds.

• E1: When using the combat technique: speed of our entire side increases by 20% for 1 round. After using the ultimate, the next combat technique does not consume combat points.
• E2: When activating the healing talent for our side characters, it also removes 1 negative effect for them.
• E3: Increases ultimate level by 2 and talent level by 2.
• E4: When using the combat technique or activating the healing talent, the lower the target's HP, the higher the healing, up to an additional 80%.
• E5: Increases combat technique level by 2 and normal attack level by 1.
• E6: When using the combat technique or activating the healing talent, our side target gains 50% damage increase for 2 rounds.

New Light Helm in Honkai: Star Rail 1.5

Three new light helms will also debut in this version:

• Hey, Over Here!: Increases character's effect resistance by an additional 8%. Increases healing effect by an additional 16% when using the combat technique. This effect persists until the next turn of the user.
• An Instance Before a Gaze: Increases critical damage by an additional 36%. When the character uses the ultimate technique, increases damage based on maximum energy: each energy point increases damage by 0.36%, up to 180 energy.
• Night of Fright: Increases energy recovery speed by 12%. When the wearer uses the ultimate technique on allies, heals all allies by 18% of the wearer's maximum HP. When the wearer heals allies, increases allies' attack by 2.4%, accumulates 5 times, lasts for 2 turns.

Among them, Hey, Over Here! is a 4-star, a free gift from the main event of version 1.5; the other two items are 5-star and will appear in character banners. Night of Fright is for Huohuo and is miHoYo's classic 'create problem, sell solution' trick, while An Instance Before a Gaze is for the new DPS, Argenti.

Two artifact sets and 2 accessory sets will debut in version 1.5 for gamers to farm.

Prisoner in Deep Confinement:
