The new item will serve as the signature Light Cone for the upcoming five-star character Rappa, who is rumored to arrive inHonkai: Star RailVersion 2.6. According to the leak, Rappa’s Light Cone will revolve around the Break Effect. It will restore 20 energy when a character enters battle. Another of its effects will make the character’s Basic Attacks advance the weapon holder’s action forward once a certain number of Breaks are reached.
Honkai: Star Rail Leak Reveals New Rappa Light Cone
Many fans in the comment section have complained about HoYoverse’s recent trend of introducing new Light Cones that only fit the playstyle of one specific character. However, some players have added that the new Light Cone could be a decent choice forHonkai: Star Rail’s five-star Erudition character Himeko. A couple of fans have also noted that this Light Cone could become a must-have for Rappa users due to how it affects her turn cycling.
PreviousHonkai: Star Railleaksrevealed that Rappa will be a new five-star Imaginary user who follows the Erudition path. Erudition characters inHonkai: Star Railusually excel at fighting against groups of enemies due to their high AoE damage potential. Rappa’s kit leaks have revealed that her Skill will allow her to deal Imaginary damage to multiple enemies.
She will be able to reduce the enemy’s toughness regardless of their weakness type. Similar toHonkai: Star Rail’s Xueyi, Rappa’s kit will allow her to put enemies in a Weakness Broken state. Her Technique effect will allowHonkai: Star Rail’s new five-star characterto block all incoming attacks after entering a combat state. These leaks should still be viewed with caution, as HoYoverse is likely to make further adjustments before Version 2.6, which is expected to be released around mid-October.
