The release of Honkai Star Rail 2.0 marked a monumental moment in the game’s evolution, bringing forth three new playable characters, a completely fresh world, and the introduction of two new Relic sets. Now, anticipation is building for the upcoming Honkai Star Rail 2.1 update, poised to be another substantial leap forward. This next version promises highly anticipated character reruns and the debut of new fan-favorite characters in the banners. Recent leaks for Honkai Star Rail 2.1 also hint at the arrival of new Planar Ornament sets with the forthcoming release.
According to leaks from Dim Leaks, the upcoming HSR 2.1 update will introduce two new Planar Ornament Sets: Sigonia, the Unclaimed Desolation, and Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm. These eagerly awaited additions are set to debut alongside the upcoming update.
- Sigonia, the Unclaimed Desolation: offers a unique effect where the wearer’s Critical Damage rises by 4%, accumulating up to 10 times upon defeating enemies.
- Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm: grant a substantial 12% increase in the wearer’s attack. Additionally, upon entering battle, if at least one ally follows the same path as the wearer, the wearer’s Critical Rate is boosted by 12%.
The two fresh Planar Ornaments introduced in HSR 2.1 are tailored for both DPS and Sub-DPS characters. Particularly striking is the Sigonia, the Unclaimed Desolation set, which appears highly appealing. It’s easy to envision many DPS and Hyper Carry characters opting for this set, especially in Pure Fiction, where the significant 40% Crit Damage boost is readily accessible.
The Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm Ornament set appears tailored for Sub-DPS characters, particularly those in Damage over Time (DoT) teams. Its synergy is particularly apt for Acheron, given her role as a Nihility DPS, as her Traces Abilities necessitate the presence of other Nihility characters on the team.
While the introduction of new Planar Ornament Sets often hints at the possibility of a new World in the Simulated Universe 2.1, there’s no concrete evidence supporting this speculation as of yet. Share your insights on the newly leaked Planar Ornament sets and which characters you believe they will complement most effectively.
