Honkai: Star Rail’s Version 3.0 update, Paean of Era Nova will launch on January 15, introducing players to the new world of Amphoreus. This update will add new world storylines, maps and gameplay features, as well as three new playable characters. It will also mark the beginning of the largest story arc in Honkai: Star Rail to date, with the story unfolding across eight updates from Version 3.0 to 3.7.
The first new character coming to the game is The Herta, an Ice-Type Erudition character that is skilled at AoE DMG. In battle, she can apply Interpretation on enemies, and allied characters’ attacks can also further apply Interpretation. With the increase of Interpretation stacks, The Herta’s abilities can increase powerful hits of DMG based on their high Interpretation stacks on specific targets and multiple enemies besides. Additionally, The Herta’s Ultimate can also Transfer the highest Interpretation stacks to Elite or stronger enemies, before dealing Ice DMG to all enemy targets.
The second character making her debut is Aglaea. As the first limited 5-star Remembrance character, Aglaea can summon her memosprite Garmentmaker in battle to fight alongside her. Aglaea and her Garmentmaker can synchronize attacks on enemies, with this new joint attacking mechanism not only increasing the Garmentmaker’s SPD but also adding a new layer of rhythm and variability to combat.
Finally, players will be able to unlock a new playable version of the Trailblazer through story events, following the crew of the Astral Express as they journey through Amphoreus and enter a dark region known as the Realm of Fate. Through an encounter with Oronyx, the Titan of Time, the Trailblazer will gain the power of Remembrance and the ability to “draw strength from the past”.
Players will also meet a new companion named Mem, who can be summoned during battles where it gradually charges Energy. Once fully charged, it provides Mem’s Support that allows a designated character to immediately take action and deal additional True DMG, turning the tide of battle.
Last but certainly not least, special Warp events will be held, where limited 5-star characters Lingsha, Feixiao, and Jade will be making reruns in the first half of the update, while 5-star characters Boothill, Robin, and Silver Wolf will be making a limited return in the second half. March 7th will also gain a new outfit that can be claimed after unlocking the “Characters” function and logging in during the Version 3.0 period.
