After a long launch period of the game, the second phase of the 1.0 version of Honkai Star Rail is upon us. So far, HoYoverse is following the same release schedule for its latest game. We get a new banner every three weeks and a new version every six weeks. With that in mind, Jing Yuan’s banner has been officially announced for Honkai Star Rail, and the 4-star characters are coming with it. If you haven’t been lucky at pulling any of the Xianzhou Lufou characters, there’s good news for you, as some will appear soon.

Anyone who pulls for Jing Yuan tomorrow can obtain March 7th, Sushang, or Tingyun as 4-star characters in the new banner. This is fantastic, as the last two characters have been hard to get for some. Both are great and provide amazing DPS numbers and support. On the other hand, we have the fan favorite, March 7th, who is always a welcome addition if you don’t have Gepard or Clara yet. So, whoever you get, you should pull for this banner a few times.

If you are pulling for Jing Yuan anyway, these 4-star characters will be great, as Honkai Star Rail has planned a good synergy for this banner. All characters should make a great composition with Jing Yuan, who might replace Serval as the Lightning DPS character. Yet, if you don’t want Jing Yuan, you can build a bit of pity provided you have 50/50; if not, be careful with your pulls.
Either way, we’re happy another banner is finally coming, and we can’t for more characters to appear in the game. There’s already a list of unreleased characters, with some coming in the next version, so keep an eye out for that and start saving your Stellar Jade.
