Tingyun’s rumored new form inHonkai: Star Railmay prove to be indispensable in combat, according to new leaks about the character. There have been rumors that Tingyun will make a return to HoYoverse’s turn-based RPG for some time now, following her mysterious disappearance during the Ambrosial Arbor Crisis story arc on the Xianzhou Luofu. The game is progressing through Version 2.5, a patch that has introduced the playable versions of Moze, Lingsha, andFeixiao inHonkai: Star Rail, but attention is starting to shift toward future updates.

In those future leaks, Tingyun’s new form is cited several times. In fact, there are mentions thatTingyun’s new form will provide players with a permanent Super Break DMG effect. The information was shared by Z Leaks and posted onReddit. It is uncertain exactly what this permanent Super Break DMG buff will do, exactly, but if it is triggered simply by having her on the team, she may become an invaluable member of team comps, especially those centered around Super Break DMG inHonkai: Star Rail.

Tingyun’s New Form In Honkai: Star Rail May Have A Powerful Ability

The Character May Substitute Or Complement Harmony Trailblazer In Super Break DMG Teams

At the moment,the most necessary character in any Super Break DMG team comp is the Harmony Trailblazer, who essentially allows the effect to be triggered – and does so in what is considered a very overpowered way. The effects of a Super Break DMG DPS character like Firefly are also significantly increased by Ruan Mei. With the leaks aboutTingyun’s new form inHonkai: Star Rail, however, it seems like the Harmony Trailblazer may finally get a substitute.

If Tingyun’s mere presence enables Super Break DMG and amplifies its power somehow, she may be a more effective support than Harmony Trailblazer. Of course, the game’s main character is capable of nearly always allowing the usage of Super Break DMG by the team’s DPS soTingyun’s rumored new form may represent less of a threat to the Trailblazer but an alternative optionfor those who are facing activities with two distinct teams, such as Memory of Chaos. Currently, only theHarmony Trailblazer inHonkai: Star Railenables Super Break DMG, and having another unit provide it is crucial.

This is especially true as the game progresses forward and the main character unlocks more Paths, which may render them occupied and not capable of being used on their Harmony Path.

The leaks about Tingyun’s new form are still very uncertain, and they should be taken with an extra degree of caution, as a lot may be incorrectly reported or still highly subject to change. So far, HoYoverse has shown no signs that Tingyun will even return, so the details about her rumored new form are even more unreliable. However, as the game pushes through Version 2.5 and Version 2.6, players may soon get a teaser for Tingyun’s return inHonkai: Star Rail.
