Summary
Honkai: Star Railhas revealed the upcoming 5-star character Yunli’s complete kit. Yunli is a Physical-type DPS following the path of Destruction. She is joining theHonkai: Star Railplayable roster on July 31 with the launch of Version 2.4.
After the end of the Penacony adventure,Honkai: Star Railis moving forward into Version 2.4by returning to the Xianzhou Luofu and a lot of exciting content. The update is debuting two 5-star characters, Yunli and Jiaoqiu, as well as March 7th’s Imaginary Hunt form. While March 7th will be obtainable for free via the patch’s main event, Yunli will be featured in Phase 1 banners along with Huohuo’s rerun. The character will also star inHonkai: Star Rail’s next adventure, “Finest Duel Under the Pristine Blue: Part I,” in which she and Janqing will join forces to train March 7th in swordmanship.

HoYoverse has revealed Yunli’s kit through a video onHonkai: Star Rail’s official YouTube channel. Yunli is a Physical-type under the path of Destruction who serves as a DPS, and her damage relies heavily on her Talent, which lets her perform powerful counterattacks. Yunli’s Ultimate allows her to enter a “Parry” state, which taunts all enemies and makes Yunli carry out even stronger counterattacks scaling off of her Attack stats.
To make the most out of Yunli’s kit, players must ensure Yunli is attacked in combat because the more attacks she receives, the more times Yunli strikes back at enemies. Players must keep in mind that her Parry state only lasts until the next unit’s turn ends, so it is important to use her Ultimate just before an enemy’s turn instead of before an ally’s turn. This way, Yunli can deal the most damage with her “Intuit: Cull” hit. Yunli’s kit is a very complex one, but she may easily become one ofHonkai: Star Rail’s best Physical characters.
Honkai: Star Rail Yunli’s Kit Explained
According toHonkai: Star Rail, Yunli is a skilled swordmaster born into a renowned Xianzhou family of swordsmiths. Although she is young, Yunli carries a tragic past. Players can find out more of her story in her Companion Mission “Swords to Plowshares,” which will be released in Version 2.4. Yunli and her signature Light Cone will feature inHonkai: Star Rail’s next banner, which will run from July 31 to August 21.
Aside from Yunli,Honkai: Star Railis introducing multiple Xianzhou Luofu characters in the next patches, such as Jiaoqiu, Feixiao, and Lingsha. However, HoYoverse recently faced some backlash regarding its casting choice forHonkai: Star Rail’s character Moze. The voice actor has since stepped down from the role after the criticism, but whether this will affect the success ofHonkai: Star RailVersion 2.4 remains to be seen.
