Within the version "Falling on the Threshold of Dawn" The pioneers will be able to participate in the "Jumps" of several legendary heroines at once: the priestess-healer Giacina, the owner of the space station Great Herta, the gold-thief Cifer, as well as the leader of the Pursuers of Flame Aglaya. Each of the characters is extremely versatile in the niche they occupy and is able to impress with the mechanics embedded in the skill set.
There may not be enough Star Jades for all the desired representatives of limited banners, and to strengthen the , you will have to choose a unit from an extensive list of meta legendaries. In the guide, we will consider the main features of each character, so that it becomes clear who in Honkai: StarRail spin in patch 3.3.
Overview of all characters
In this section, we will look at the mechanics of new characters, as well as heroines who have been rerun, and then evaluate their relevance within the endgame content.
Hyacinth
Hyacinth (Memory: Windy) — a healer with good AoE potential, who will be an excellent not only for heroes from the HP mechanic, but also for DPS representatives of other directions. Removes debuffs with a skill and super ability, deals additional damage with the help of the skill of the spirit of memory Iki (the outgoing numbers depend on the amount of healing recorded during the battle), restores health of the entire team at once, including summoned creatures. Versatility of the skill set allows you to high-level updated modes without any problems.
Priority is given to such characters as: Blade (Destruction: Wind), since the proposed functionality is well combined with their mechanics. In addition to them, it can take the sustain position in any other group.

Greater Hertha
Great Hertha (Erudition: Ice) — the main DPS representative, playing from status "Interpretation", which increases the damage multiplier on an enemy affected by the said negative effect. Deals well with both groups of enemies and single targets due to the talent, which allows you to priority accumulate lvl. "Interpretations" on targets of elite rank and above. As a result, it is suitable for completing "Pure Fiction", "Illusion of the End" and "Hall of Oblivion". Additionally, it is easy to assemble due to belonging to the popular Path with many equipment options.
Slightly better revealed in cooperation with Anaxoy (Erudition: Windy), as their skills and talent/trace requirements complement each other very well. However, having a Zlatius scholar is not necessary, as there are good allied alternatives among the followers of his class.
Examples of current squads with member of the "Society of Geniuses" No. 83:
Basic DPS | SUP-DPS/SUP | SUP (de/buffer) | Sustain |
---|---|---|---|
V. Herta |

Number
Cipher (Non-existence: Quantum) — a secondary damage dealer with functions, responsible for the distribution of weakenings. In particular, it increases the damage received by enemies, which is considered a universal bonus that will suit any team. Plays from a high speed indicator and has several options for "speed" builds - 170, 180 and 200 units - the latter allows you to achieve constancy of debuffs on enemies and, at the same time, maximize the amount of outgoing DPS from the heroine herself.
Good in content against large single targets, performs worse in the process of clearing "Pure Fiction", since the skill set is mainly focused on solo-target.

Aglaia
Aglaya (Memory: Electric) — a hyper-carry who summons the Seamstress, a spirit of memory, to the field, with whom he subsequently carries out t attacks of multiple types. The main feature is embedded in superpowers: Activating this will instantly increase your speed, allowing you to take multiple turns in a single battle cycle. This advantage is in turn highly valued in endgame-type modes.
Receives additional bonuses from cooperation with s who are able to advance the action. Belonging to the Path of Memory, in turn, increases the need for signature in the person of Sundays (Harmony: Imaginary).
Examples of current squads with the demigoddess of the "Eternal Land":

Who to twist?
Let's make a general assessment of the characters using a comparison table:
Hyacinth | Greater Hertha | Number | Aglaia | |
Role in the squad | Healer | Basic DPS | Debuffer | Basic DPS |
The best eidolon | E0-E1 | E1-E2 | E2 | E1-E2 |
Dependence on the signal | Desirable but not required | Not necessary | Desirable but not required | Highly recommended |
Is it worth it for a newbie to knock out? | Yes | Yes | No | No |
Is F2P suitable? | Yes | Yes | No | No |
As a result, the banners of version 3.3 are represented by niche characters among their classes:
- a universal healer who can any squad;
- A great basic damage dealer that is easy to build and has a variety of equipment options that are suitable for beginners;
- secondary damage dealer-debuffer with universal negative effects, but skills tied to a solo target;
- the main damage dealer, capable of impressing with frequent moves and excellent damage, but in return requiring signature (equipment + s).
For full implementation Aglai you will have to seriously invest in third-party enhancements for a more comfortable game. Greater Hertha, on the contrary, is considered a less demanding unit and will be a real salvation for beginners who want to close high-level activities. Both will be able to for a long time endgame content.
Hyacinth with an outlet will take a high position in the ranking due to the versatility of skills, allowing, in addition to healing, to surprise with good third-party damage. It is definitely worth taking if the profile needs stable sustain. Cipher, in turn, can be useful for those who like to play from stable debuffs or continue to strengthen squads with galactic ranger acheron.
