A new Honkai: Star Rail Owlbert and Kafka trailer goes over what to expect from a Blade build. The five-star Wind character and Stellaron Hunter is now a playable character. The video focuses on all of his attacks, and what people can expect when using him. It also points out that this Destruction-type character relies heavily on his ATK and HP stats for attacks, often lowering his own HP with attacks, which means people should go for Relics and Planar Ornaments that bolster both.
The “Blade: An Immortal’s Beauty” trailer begins by looking at some of the more standard attacks he uses in Honkai: Star Rail. His basic Shard Sword attack and deals Wind damage to one enemy based on his ATK stat. The Hellscape skill takes 30% of his health in exchange for increasing his general damage and changing his basic attack to the AOE one Forest of Swords. Forest of Swords also reduces his health by 10% each time it is used. Immediately after using Hellscape, he can then use Forest of Swords.
It’s Blade’s Death Sentence Ultimate Attack that means a Honkai: Star Rail player should watch his HP and ATK when preparing a build. It does AOE Wind damage based on his ATK, max HP, and HP he’s lost so far in the fight. His health sacrifing also carries over to his Talent and Technique. The former is Shuhu’s Gift and lets him accrue five Charges each time he loses health. He’ll deal a follow-up AOE Wind attack when he hits five. His Karma Wind Technique cuts his health, but deals damage to all enemies when a battle begins.
Here’s the full “Keeping Up with Star Rail” trailer for Blade.
As a result, some Relic sets to consider for an optimal Blade build in Honkai: Star Rail could be the Wind damage-boosting Eagle of Twilight Line or ATK bolstering Musketeer of Wild Wheat.
Honkai: Star Rail is available for PCs and mobile devices, and a PS5 version will arrive in 2023. The Blade banner will appear until August 9, 2023.
