Honkai: Star Rail Leak Reveals Acheron Kit

Anew poston the popularHonkai: Star RailLeaks subreddit has revealed most of the kit info about anew five-star character named Acheron, one of the three roster additions scheduled for version 2.1. While there have been multiple rumors over the last couple of months about her power on the field, the recent leaks are probably much more accurate since her official release is a couple of weeks away. Here is a summary of Acheron’s kit:

This character’s Technique effect allows her to generate a certain number of flower stacks and apply them to the highest-ranking enemy on the field, as well as perform an AoE attack on the whole team. Her Ascensions allow Acheron to boost her attack damage depending on the number ofHonkai: Star Rail’s Nihility usersshe has in her team.

What is Acheron’s Team Comp Role?

The fact that Acheron is a Nihility character means that she will most likely be a support since characters that follow this path usually excel at applying debuffs to enemies. According to multiple replies in the comment section, Acheron has the potential to be one of themost powerful characters inHonkai: Star Rail, but she will need players to build a decent team comp around her.

At the moment, there is not a lot of officialinformation about Acheron’s story, even though she’s already made an in-game appearance. Her true name is still a mystery, but she’s been described as a drifter who claims to be a Galaxy Ranger who wanders through the cosmos alone.
