A new buff to Pure Fiction has been mentioned inHonkai: Star Rail3.0 leaks and, based on the rumored information,developer HoYoverse may be making another push toward the usage of Erudition characters– even if it is in the wrong way. Version 3.0 will be the next big patch for HoYoverse’s turn-based RPG. Not only will it introduce three new playable characters, two of which are on the brand-new Path of the Remembrance, but the update will also initiate a new year of story content, now set in the mysterious world ofAmphoreus inHonkai: Star Rail.
The content, which includes new rumored maps, a continuation of the Trailblaze Missions, and much more should be the centerpiece of the upcoming Version 3.0 patch.The introduction of Remembrance as a new playable Path is also a big deal since this is the new Path since the game’s release in 2023and it should bring new gameplay mechanics to the table. While new playable content will be introduced, it’s likely that the developer will also update previously existing content, such asdaily farming inHonkai: Star Rail3.0. Now, there have been mentions of a buff to Pure Fiction.
Pure Fiction Players May Notice A Buff In Honkai: Star Rail 3.0
Bosses In The Activity Will Be Damaged When Minions Are Defeated, According To A Leak
Starting in Version 2.8, players who challenge Pure Fiction may notice a buff, according to information provided by the leaker known as HomDGCat. The leak was shared in a post tagged as “Reliable” onReddit, stating that Pure Fiction will undergo a rework and that on the second and third waves,when players defeat a minion, the boss will lose a percentage of their Max HP, and that the HP loss was increased from 2.5% to 3%.According to the leaker, the effect should take place in Version 2.8, but will likely carry on intoHonkai: Star Rail3.0.
Honkai Star Rail 3.0 Leaks: How Much Stellar Jade Is Available In The First Amphoreus Update
Based on the leaks for Honkai: Star Rail 3.0 so far, this is what you can expect in terms of free Stellar Jade during the next big update to the RPG.
Based on calculations, the number of mobs that need to be defeated to beat the boss in Pure Fiction was drastically reduced from 40 to 34.The leaker also states that this number will likely be lower since players should also deal damage to the boss with their team comps rather than ignore them completely and solely focus on the mobs. This stacks with the previous leaks about abuff to Erudition inHonkai: Star Rail2.7, which introduced Grit, an effect that accumulates by defeating enemies and allows players to take action immediately while enemies take increased damage.
At the time, it seemed like a push toward making The Herta an attractive pull in the gacha banners but with this new leaked update to minion defeats dealing damage to bosses, it seems like the push is toward the usage of Erudition characters as a whole.
Erudition Characters May Have Their Value Increased In Honkai: Star Rail’s Pure Fiction, But Still Seem Doomed
Units On This Path May Be Stuck To The Activity
Using Erudition characters within Pure Fiction is a great way of clearing the activity, especially because of how constantly minions are put on the field rather than stronger elite enemies.With Erudition units, players can quickly dispatch these minions and progress – in phases with bosses, they will now be able to beat bosses mainly by defeating minions, which makes them the perfect type of characters to use in the activity. DoT (damage-over-time) characters may also see benefits from this leaked buff inHonkai: Star Rail. Even so, the push toward Erudition in Pure Fiction also seems to condemn them.
Honkai Star Rail 3.0 Leaks: Aglaea’s Kit Is Something Of A Mess (But I’m All For It)
The complete kit for Aglaea in Honkai: Star Rail 3.0 has allegedly leaked and, despite how confusing it may initially seem, I’m still interested.
While there are noteworthy powerful Erudition units, such as Argenti, characters on this Path are usually limited to Pure Fiction and activities where the majority of the enemies are weaker than elites.Because their specialty is dealing multi-target damage, their damage output tends to be spread out instead of focused, so they often falter when facing tougher opponents and bosses. Because of this, Erudition characters likeArgenti inHonkai: Star Railhave been losing their worth over the past year and the buff in Pure Fiction seems to constrain them to the activity.
However, there are rumors about a change to Erudition and the Path may make a comeback soon.The leaks about The Herta show that she will be a multi-target DPS unit but that she will also be able to focus her efforts onto stronger enemies on the field. As such, she is expected to wipe out lesser opponents while also dealing increased damage to tougher ones. This should makeThe Herta unique inHonkai: Star Rail3.0and onward. Additionally, recent bosses have also been spawning more minions than ever, improving the value of Erudition characters as a whole.
Honkai Star Rail Amphoreus Leaks: Mydei’s Ultimate Is Building Up To Be The Most Stylish In The Game So Far, According To Datamined Information
New leaked images for Mydei’s Ultimate in Honkai: Star Rail have emerged, hinting at what may be a stylish and devastating ability in combat.
At the moment, the future of Erudition is still a mystery, especially because the buff to Pure Fiction seems to contain their usage to the activity rather than improve their presence across the entirety of the game. This is even more uncertain when considering the game’s focus for a few months will likely be developing the Remembrance Path with the introduction of Aglaea and theRemembrance Trailblazer in Version 3.0. Despite Erudition not being the meta, the future ofHonkai: Star Railseems bright, and only more updates will tell how the Path evolves or decays.
