Honkai: Star Rail - Aventurine Character Ascension (& Materials)

Honkai: Star Rail has revealed a batch of content, including warp events, enemies, and combat stages, that will be released in version 2.2 next month. Honkai: Star Rail recently celebrated its anniversary, giving away free pulls players can use on limited banners. On the game's anniversary day, the action RPG confirmed a roster of characters and the Realm of Strange event, which helps Trailblazers farm Cavern Relics, for the version 2.2 update.

Players should completely skip pulling for both Robin and Boothill in 2.2 and, instead, pull for some of the game’s older characters. Robin and Boothill are the new playable units arriving with the next patch. Both of them were confirmed by developer HoYoverse a while back, but the details about them and how they play have finally been revealed. Their kits had been abundantly described in the several 2.2 leaks and rumors and it is now confirmed that most of the information was true. Robin is a support unit, while Boothill is a DPS.

Honkai: Star Rail has recently announced a new time-limited event that gives away triple Cavern Relic rewards. Events in Honkai: Star Rail occur every month, allowing players to farm relics and upgrade materials. Some festivities take place in a separate dimension and set Trailblazers against enemies, while others usually involve exploration and character dialogue. Completing events is a common activity for many players, like re-fighting bosses and collecting treasure chests in newly released locations.

Farming the proper materials for Arlecchino’s Ascension in and upgrading her Talents is a vital step to enhance her and then start thinking about the best builds for the character. Arlecchino is a highly anticipated playable character added with Version 4.6 after being presented as an NPC during the Fontaine storyline. She is the only new character in 4.6, though she has been awaited before she was even introduced as an NPC – Arlecchino has been leaked abundantly even before the arrival of the region of Fontaine back in Version 4.0.

Honkai: Star Rail’s Version 2.1, “Into the Yawning Chasm,” is still ongoing but receives its second new five-star character today. A major star in the ongoing Penacony storyline, Aventurine is a Preservation unit that deals Imaginary damage. He’s also a gambler who risks everything to win big. Check out his animated teaser below.

Honkai: Star Rail has officially revealed the duration of the upcoming Character and Light Cone Warp Event that will feature the new five-star character Aventurine and a re-run for the previously released Jingliu. Despite being released less than a year ago, the game has already introduced a multitude of new characters, which allows HoYoverse to frequently include double banners in their updates.

Using the best build for Aventurine in and inserting him into a proper team comp can significantly improve his performance as a shielder and even enhance his damage output, as he is an aggressive support unit. Initially introduced as an NPC in Penacony with Version 2.0, Aventurine became a playable character with Version 2.1. In battle, he uses Imaginary DMG and follows the Path of the Preservation. His specialty is protecting allies from harm with a unique shielding mechanic, but he stands out when compared to the likes of Gepard or Fu Xuan in .

Honkai: Star Rail has given players an insight into Aventurine's kit before his debut in the second phase of version 2.1. Honkai: Star Rail will soon receive a new update and celebrate its anniversary in a memorable way. The Festive Gifts login event, which gives away 30 free pulls, will be available in the second phase of 2.1, alongside some other time-limited festivities like Cosmodyssey and Vignettes in a Cup. Moreover, players will get 1,600 Stellar Jades through the in-game mail system.

The trailer, titled “A Moment Among the Stars—Inherently Unjust Destiny,” feels like a dramatic peek into Honkai: Star Rail’s narrative. Our characters grapple with fate, wondering if they can rewrite the cosmic script.
