New gameplay footage from a leaked Honkai: Star Rail source reveals the introduction of a highly anticipated five-star character called Topaz, along with her faithful partner Numby. Unlike most gacha-based games, these two characters operate as a single playable unit.
The official social media accounts of Honkai: Star Rail have already confirmed that Topaz will be joining the game in version 1.4, expected to be released in the first half of October. Additionally, HoYoverse has announced the arrival of another five-star character named Jingliu, as well as a four-star character named Xueyi, further expanding the game's roster.
A new post on the Honkai: Star Rail Leaks subreddit reveals a sneak peek of the upcoming five-star character Topaz and Numby engaged in thrilling combat. Players of the game have the opportunity to form a team comprising up to four distinctive characters. To truly unleash their party's destructive potential, players must carefully select teammates whose abilities complement each other harmoniously. In the leaked video footage, Topaz is seen accompanied by three formidable comrades: Clara, a five-star Physical character, Luocha, a five-star Imaginary user, and Asta, a formidable four-star Fire unit. These characters were strategically chosen by the player to fully exploit Topaz's remarkable kit, which revolves around executing follow-up attacks. This unique mechanic allows characters to launch automatic off-turn attacks when specific conditions are met.
Topaz is expected to be the preferred support character for the five-star Fire user Clara, according to many fans. Following The Hunt's path, Topaz's kit offers significant potential for dealing single-target DPS, making her a valuable asset when facing elite enemies. Topaz's skill allows her to summon a Wrap Trotter named Numby, who inflicts Fire damage on a target and has a 100% chance of applying the Burn status.
In addition, Topaz's Ultimate ability buffs Numby, enhancing its Critical Rate, Speed, and Damage Multiplier. In this empowered state, Numby can deliver two attacks before exiting the stance. However, some fans have expressed dissatisfaction with the attack animations of Topaz and Numby, as they feel that Topaz should have a greater involvement in performing the attacks.
There is a possibility that Topaz and Numby will appear on the game's initial double banner in the upcoming update of Honkai: Star Rail version 1.4, as leaked information suggests that the game's first re-run may be included. However, it remains unclear from HoYoverse whether Topaz will be featured in the first or second banner cycle of the upcoming update. Honkai: Star Rail is currently accessible on PC and mobile devices, with plans for developing versions for PS4 and PS5.
