A healer and battery in one.

Greetings everyone. As we get close to the end of 2023, the Honkai: Star Rail dev team is excited to get back to you with the latest information on the new maps, stories, and companions introduced in version 1.5, The Crepuscule Zone, coming on November 15. We look forward to delivering chills and thrills for everyone exploring the newest version and engaging in its gameplay.
After helping our friends solve various interstellar conspiracies and crises, it’s time to join a ghost-hunting squad and experience something spooky. The upcoming update will introduce a new location full of mystery, evil, and supernatural occurrences.
Additionally, allow me to introduce three fresh faces joining the soon-to-be-playable lineup: Huohuo and Hanya, both associated with the enigmatic Ten-Lords Commission, and Argenti, a valued member of the Knights of Beauty. And there’s even more in store – we will deliver various exciting and challenging events and updates to elevate our Trailblazers’ journeys.
A while back, the Creation Furnace of the Artisanship Commission was shattered, and the heliobi trapped inside were able to escape and find refuge in the Fyxestroll Garden. It’s widely believed that heliobi are born from long-held grievances, possessing the ability to inhabit individuals, manipulate their senses, drink from their souls, and even take control of their bodies. Heliobi are adept at possession; only some of the most seasoned Wraith Wardens and Aurumaton Spectral Envoys from the Ten-Lords Commission are immune to their influence.
The Fyxestroll Garden is filled with yin energy, and it appears even more eerie with its ancient suppression towers, stone monoliths, and towering gnarled trees. During the day, it can be unsettling, but it becomes creepier at night, and with the incursion of the heliobi, a deeper atmosphere of danger now lingers. Recently, the Xianzhou’s online forums have witnessed a surge in posts detailing supernatural phenomena within the enigmatic confines of Fyxestroll Garden, from self-playing violins to the wailing cries of vengeful ghosts. Unsurprisingly, enthusiasts of the paranormal on the Xianzhou Luofu are reveling in these reports.
Now, dear Trailblazers, it’s time to assemble a ghost-hunting squad and embark on an adventure to unravel these mysteries. In the brand-new Version 1.5’s Trailblaze Continuance — A Foxian Tale of the Haunted — the squad will be responsible for tracking down heliobi, addressing crises, and safeguarding the Xianzhou Luofu.
You’ll have quite a task ahead of you, but fear not. You might find support from one of the most formidable forces in the Xianzhou Luofu: The Ten-Lords Commission. They are the Xianzhou’s most formidable forces, authorities of the supernatural,
A healer and battery in one.
Check any HoYoverse social media thread, and I guarantee you’ll find a microcosm of netizens communicating in the infinite languages of online slang, memes, and pop culture references. Those conversations are often some painful mixture of absurdly awkward, endearing, or aggressive, and the writing in Honkai: Star Rail’s latest event perfectly captures that spirit.
A complex Companion Mission in called sees you hunt for pages of an old book hidden all around Jarilo-VI. Sections of the table of contents for this book give you clues for puzzles you have to solve to collect more pages. Putting the novel back together earns you many rewards for solving the hints given at a number of different areas on your map.
Collectible rewards are all over every map in , with the new Fyxestroll Garden area being no exception, hosting a variety of chests and a Warp Trotter to discover. As of the 1.5 update for the game, there are many treasures that you and your crew can track down. You'll have to travel to the edges of the Garden and fight a few tough enemies to receive every reward available.
As someone jealously eyeing Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail’s food collaborations with other countries, I’m pleased to report that the United States is finally getting some love. Honkai: Star Rail is collaborating with Pelicana Chicken in a new event, and I’m coming hungry.
In order to farm all the necessary materials for Argenti’s character Ascension in , you need to know what challenges to take and what opponents to defeat. Argenti is a 5-star hero in the game and one that follows a Path in the lore that is different from the Path he takes on during battle. In the story, Argenti follows the Path of the Beauty as a member of the Knights of the Beauty. However, as Beauty is not a playable Path in , Argenti is aligned to the Path of the Erudition, which makes him a specialist in dealing damage against multiple opponents.
There are several materials you will need to farm for Hanya’s character Ascension in , as well as others for her Traces – the official name for a character’s abilities in HoYoverse’s turn-based RPG. Although Hanya had already appeared in-game through the Return to Darkness Light Cone, she makes her debut as one of the playable characters in 1.5, along with Argenti and Huohuo. Contrary to the two other heroes, Hanya is a 4-star character. The judge for the Ten-Lords Commission uses Physical DMG in combat and follows the Path of the Harmony. This means Hanya is a support character focused on buffing her teammates.
miHoYo’s latest update for Honkai: Star Rail is now live with Version 1.5, “The Crepuscule Zone.” It adds a new area, the Fyxestroll Garden in the Ten-Lords Commission, and new story content centred on Huohuo, the Judge-in-training. Not only has the five-star Abundance character received a new animated short, but an episode of “Keeping up with Star Rail” also discusses her abilities.
Apple has announced the 2023 App Store Award finalists. Each year, the App Store's editorial team select and spotlight some of the best apps across categories on Apple's Storefront. Apps and games on App Store are recognised for their technical and creative achievements. This year's App Store Award finalists include over 40 app and game developers across 10 different categories. Awards are given out to apps across Apple's lineup of devices, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Apple Watch. Popular apps like language learning tool Duolingo, professional video editing software DaVinci Resolve, and film streaming platform Mubi have made the cut this year.
Farming all the materials for Huohuo’s character Ascension in can be a daunting task, especially if you do not know where to look. Luckily, not only are her main materials known, but most of them could be pre-farmed ahead of her release in Version 1.5. Huohuo is a new 5-star character that was announced during the 1.5 livestream and will be arriving in the game along with Argenti and Hanya, two new additions to the turn-based RPG. The young foxian girl is a judge on the Ten-Lords Commission and was recruited due to her supernatural ability to detect evil presences.
Giving the best build and team comps to Huohuo in is a great way of optimizing the character’s full potential after her Ascension and leveling process. Huohuo is a 5-star playable character added with 1.5, along with Argenti and Hanya. The foxian girl uses Wind in battle and follows the Path of the Abundance. This means that she plays the role of a team healer. Huohuo is capable of not only healing but also removing debuffs, which is crucial in encounters against certain bosses in the game.
Fresh off its nomination for Best Mobile Game at The Game Awards 2023, miHoYo Games’ Honkai: Star Rail has received a new trailer. It showcases Huohuo, the upcoming five-star Abundance character who is also a Ten Lords Commission Judge-in-training. While tasked with hunting ghosts, she’s unfortunately too scared to face them.
