However, with so many options and strategies available, it can be difficult to know where to begin!
In this article, we will provide an in-depth guide to the Warps in Honkai Star Rail, explaining what they are, how to use them, and what you can expect when you invest your time and resources into this popular feature. If you are new to the game and don’t know about the Gacha system, this guide will help you navigate the complexities of the Warps and maximize your Gacha pulls to build the strongest team.
What Are Warps In Honkai Star Rail?
The Warps system is a highly sought-after feature in Honkai: Star Rail that allows players to obtain powerful characters and items through Gacha pulls. The Warps system can be categorized into two main types, the permanent Warps and the limited-time Event Warps. Depending on the type of Warp, players will require a specific Rail Pass to redeem the rewards. By taking advantage of this intricate system, you can create a powerful arsenal of characters and items.
All Available Warps In Honkai Star Rail
There are four types of Warps in Honkai Star Rail: Departure Warp, Regular Warp, Character Event Warp, and Light Cone Event Warp. Take a closer look at all the Warps available in the game:
Departure Warp
The Departure Warp, aka the Beginner Warp, is only available for up to 50 Warps per player before it disappears permanently. With the Departure Warp, you are guaranteed a random 5-Star character within those 50 Warps. Plus, you’ll receive a 20% discount on the Star Rail Passes needed to warp, requiring only 8 instead of the usual 10 passes for 10 warps. Additionally, every 10 warps guarantee a random 4-Star or above object! The above-mentioned benefits are exclusive to the Departure Warp.
Regular Warp / Stellar Warp
The Regular Warp, also known as the Stellar Warp, is a permanent Warp with no set expiration date. It includes fixed sets of Characters and Light Cones in its pool while excluding Event Exclusive 5-star characters and Event Exclusive 4-star or 5-star Light Cones (equippable bonuses that boost a character’s stats.) This banner guarantees at least one 4-star or higher Character or Light Cone with every 10-warp set. Additionally, every 90 Warps, you are guaranteed to obtain at least one random 5-star Character or Light Cone.
Time-Limited Warps (Character Event Warp & Light Cone Warps)
The Limited-time Warp event highlights one promotional 5-star character and Light Cone in addition to four featured 4-star characters and Light Cones. To gain entry to this limited-time warp, players must utilize the Star Rail Special Pass. The game offers two limited-time warps – one prioritizing characters and the other featuring Light Cones.
When entering the Limited-time Warp, the chances of obtaining a 5-star character are 50/50 – indicating that there is an equivalent probability of receiving the featured 5-star character or one of the Standard characters. However, if you fail to receive the 5-star reward from a 50-50, it will be saved for future Limited-time Warps. This ensures that you will eventually acquire the featured 5-star reward!
How To Use Warps In Honkai Star Rail
In Honkai Star Rail, players have the option to use either the Star Rail Pass or the Star Rail Special Pass to warp and obtain randomized characters and items. These passes can be acquired via a variety of means, including completing events, collecting Travel Bags, and leveling up one’s character. Here is how you can use a Warp:
- Click on the flower-like icon near the top of your screen:
- Select the banner you wish to summon on
- Click on either Warp x1 or Warp x10
