Honkai: Star Rail – Hyacine and Cipher: All the Leaked Secrets!

by

In the ongoing storyline of Honkai: Star Rail, known as the Amphoreus arc, the identities of the Chrysos Heirs are gradually unveiled. The latest Version 3.1 narrative has already presented new playable characters such as Anaxa and Hyacine, with further updates expected to disclose more. The Amphoreus arc is set to continue until December, making it the longest journey so far for players, and much of the planet’s enigmas remain unexplored by many fans.

In the upcoming version 3.2, the characters set to debut in Honkai: Star Rail’s banners are Castorice and Anaxa. These characters have significant roles in the Traveler’s voyage to the Grove of Epiphany. Even before the current banner concludes, there is buzz about Hyacine and Cipher, fellow Chrysos Heirs, potentially joining the playable roster soon.

Everything Known About Honkai: Star Rail’s Hyacine and Cipher So Far

Who Are Hyacine and Cipher?

It’s worth noting that Hyacine and Cipher are part of the Chrysos Heirs, a band of champions who preserve the might of the Titans and are foretold to rescue Amphoreus from impending doom. Among them, Hyacine – with her pink tresses – hails from the Grove of Epiphany. She serves not only as a caregiver and surgeon but also as an assistant lecturer. In their initial encounter in Honkai: Star Rail, she can be seen attending to the injuries of numerous residents who were wounded during the assault outside Okhema City.

As I traverse the lands of Dolos, I’ve come across Cipher – a nimble feline figure with a reputation that rivals the gods themselves. She’s notorious for her swift movements and cunning exploits in Amphoreus, but it’s her stolen Coreflame of Trickery from the Titan Zagreus that truly sets her apart. However, she’s chosen to shun her Flame-Chasing destiny and forge her own path instead.

Elements and Paths

Based on various leaks, it’s being whispered that Hyacine might be a top-tier Wind-remembering character, and Cipher could be a 5-star Quantum-type entity from the Void.

Possible Release Schedule

Besides whispers suggesting the introduction of banner characters in Version 3.3, some speculate that Hyacine may debut in the initial phase and Cipher in the subsequent one. However, Honkai: Star Rail has not yet verified these reports, so this release timeline remains tentative and could be altered.

Gameplay Rumors

A leaked report by luna suggests that Hyacine might be referred to as a “HP healer” and Cipher as a DPS (Damage Per Second) unit. Since Hyacine is a nurse in the original story, it seems plausible she would have healing abilities. However, it’s intriguing to imagine how Honkai: Star Rail will incorporate this with a potential Remembrance character like Hyacine, given that healers generally adhere to the Path of Abundance.

In other words, since Cipher is a Damage Per Second (DPS) character, it’s logical because Nihility characters inflict damage over time (DOT) and can also apply debuffs. The leaker mentions that Cipher’s abilities are said to enhance CRIT, possibly making her a potent DPS in the future. This aligns with a previous report suggesting that Honkai: Star Rail might reinforce DOT units from Version 3.0 onwards, so this could be an early indication of this development.

Story Appearance

In the latest version 3.1 of Honkai: Star Rail, Hyacine and Anaxa are now part of Amphoreus’s expansion into the Grove of Epiphany. This suggests that Hyacine might be playable in the game soon, although Honkai: Star Rail has not yet specified when this will occur.

Regarding Cipher, there are whispers from well-known leaker Sakura Haven indicating she could show up in the Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.2. The details of the story in this update remain secret, but a map leak hints at a domain potentially linked to Castorice, which might be pivotal in the plot. Exactly how Cipher fits into this narrative is yet to be revealed.
