A new Honkai: Star Rail leak shows a helpful feature that allows players to switch between material rarity/tier and material synthesis. Speaking of quality-of-life features, it was rumored that Honkai: Star Rail's version 2.1 will bring a Claim All button for assignment rewards. This is an important feature, as players can use the button to claim rewards all at once and spend less time on drudgery.

Honkai: Star Rail is a turn-based fantasy RPG with a gacha system that requires players to spend in-game credits on vending machines to unlock various characters. The Stellar Warp, the equivalent of Genshin Impact's Wanderlust Invocation, is the game's permanent banner featuring units and Light Cones (weapons). Besides the Stellar Warp, Honkai: Star Rail has event-exclusive banners that offer players a higher chance to get characters and their signature Light Cones.

Honkai: Star Rail Still Needs Some Quality-Of-Life Features

Speaking of quality-of-life changes, Honkai: Star Rail fans have asked the developers to overhaul the real-time combat viewer. They argued that the combat viewer should give more details about buffs/debuffs on characters instead of showing a banner-wide image and other unnecessary things. Unfortunately, it's difficult to predict if the developers will take their feedback seriously.

In version 2.1, Honkai: Star Rail players will allegedly get a four-star character using a selector that will be part of an event. This event-exclusive selector will feature one of the newest playable banners, Gallagher, who is expected to make his introduction in the first phase of the update. Aside from Gallagher, the upcoming tool will offer Misha, a typical Ice unit with a skill set that involves AoE damage.

Leaks regarding Honkai: Star Rail version 2.1 have sparked excitement among players, with one claiming a Simulated Universe event will reward players with a free copy of Herta. In addition to planar ornaments and limited Light Cones, the forthcoming update will add new story missions in both phases. Although it isn't confirmed yet, players can expect to see the boss version of Aventurine in 2.1.
