Version 4.6 Overview
Mar 2, 2021

 

Hey captains. I'm Marisa Honkai F2P, this is Honkai v4.6 Overview (SEA server). This patch is the beginning of a new season, so a lot of new content is jam-packed here. New Herrscher, new Divine Key, free Herrscher of the Void, farmable Celestial Hymn!! Can you believe that? This is going to be a long read. Let's go!

 

 New Battlesuit - HERRSCHER OF SENTIENCE 

[Herrscher of Sentience] is a powerful fighter and supporter. At 125 SP, hold [ULT] to cast Ultimate [A Worldful of Woes] that Impairs all enemies, enter Herrscher mode and BOOM! Bonk enemies to death! Say goodbye to your Night Squire and Celestial Hymn.

 

 

 

 

 Herrscher of Sentience SIGNATURE EQUIPMENT 

[Herrscher of Sentience] needs her signature weapon [Domain of Sentience] to function. It provides her with sufficient SP recovery, allowing you to go online fast.

 

[Shattered Swords] is an excellent all-around set for Herrscher of Sentience. 

 

 New ELF - Water's EDGE 

ELF [Water's Edge] is a gacha Ice support ELF who can pull enemies in a large area and make them take more Ice DMG with Ultimate. Genshin players might think this is Hydro-type Paimon. No. No. It’s actually based on a sword in Honkai lore with the same name.

 

Water's Edge ultimate in action!

 

 MORE EQUIPMENT UPDATE 

NEW DIVINE KEYS

Two new Divine Keys are added in 4.6. 

  • [Fenghuang Down] is a Gacha fist that can stop enemies and deal damage when they are attacked. You can use this to delay Newton B debuff.
  • [Fenghuang Pinions] is a lightning support gun that can be forged in Foundry. It looks really sleek, but I'm not sure if it's practical on the battlefield.

 

In Divine Concierge, Fenghuang Down can be synced in the [Key of Sentience] slot to give all valkyries permanent +10 ATK.

 

BRINGER OF LIGHT SET - Dea Achora Top

[Bringer of Light] set is the new special set, similar to the previous [Rebel's Blades]. The first piece - Durandal: Dea Anchora T, is a Fire DMG piece that can be acquired from the Spring event shop. Hmm… 

  • The first Rebel is Lightning DMG. Then, a Lightning Herrscher appeared.
  • The second Rebel is Physical DMG. Then, a Physical Herrscher appeared.
  • Now, Bringer Set is Fire DMG. So, Herrscher Fire Durandal soon???
     

COLUMBUS SET - Replacement for Evangelion Stigma

 

[Columbus] set has a similar stat as Evangelion collab [Children] set. Columbus and Children set can be mixed and matched to activate its set effect. Example:

  • ChildrenT ColumbusM = Activates 2pc-set effect
  • ColumbusT ChildrenMB  =  Activates 3pc-set effect

Columbus will be available in gacha supply.
 

 BOUNTY MARK and FORGE 
DIRAC (G3)
Dirac G3 can now be forged. Uses Michelangelo as material.

- It is a powerful stigma for any Burst Mode valkyries - Herrscher of Sentience, Swallowtail Phantasm, White Comet.
- Extra news from the dev: In the future, Ana and Dirac can be forged directly without Peary and Michelangelo.
- Bounty Silver event continues in 4.6. You can purchase Dirac ghost in Bounty Shop
 

FENGHUANG PINIONS

 

 BATTLE PASS 
THEME PASS REMOVED, MAIN REWARDS INCREASED

Starting from this patch, Theme Pass is no longer available. BP main rewards have been increased.

 

BLAZING CRYSTALLUM

In 4.6 - 4.9, Battle Pass and Dorm Shop will give a new [FIERY CRYSTALLUM]. This will be the currency used to purchase new Elite Works items in 4.6-4.9.

 

VINTAGE SHOP and Extended Expiration Date

- Fallen Crystallum vintage shop opens in 4.6 until the end of 4.7.
- Lucion and Fallen Crystallum expiry date extended until late 4.7. 
- Lucion vintage shop extended until late v4.7

 

 SHOP UPDATE 
WAR TREASURY

 After three years, Celestial Hymn is finally farmable. It costs Ancient Legacy - you have nothing else to buy with it, so just get those weekly Celestial Hymn frags.

  • What's that? You're in Masters and don't have a stable Legacy income? Why are you even staying in Masters?! Look at all the cool weapons we have in Exalted. Bruh! Just break through!
     

OTHER SHOPS
- Exchange Shop: Added Genome scythe, Caravagio set
- Witch’s Corridor S-rank rotation: KMB AKA MEME Fuxi Tesla

 

NEW [SUPPLY SHOP] and EXPANSION SUPPLY Changes

The new [SUPPLY SHOP] uses [Battlesuit Shard] currency that can be acquired from [Expansion Supply].

 

1) [Alternative Mode] is added for Expansion Supply. When pulling Expansion or EXPA, you can use  Classic Mode (the normal expansion supply) and [Alternative Mode]. You can switch modes at any time.
2) After selecting [Alternative Mode] option, when you pull A-rank fragments that have reached SSS rank in the expansion supply, it will be automatically converted into [Battlesuit Shard] 
3) Certain materials (such as exp chips, Homi Treasure, etc.) will also be automatically converted into an amount of [Battlesuit Shard] 
4) [Battlesuit Shard] can also drop as side material.
 

Example of Expansion Supply drops conversion to [Battlesuit Shard] 
 

You can use [Battlesuit Shard] to purchase various item in [Supply Shop].

  1. [Supply Shop] content changes every patch
  2. You must unlock the valk / ELF to purchase their fragments or stamps. 

 

 SPRING EVENT 
ONCE UPON A TIME IN SHENZOU

Legends say deep down the southern tropic lies an uncharted island that is the home to the mysterious Nian and the even more mysterious Phoenix the Celestial… St. Freya sets sail for a southern island to celebrate the coming of spring!

 

 

EVENT REWARDS
Spend the currency earned from Spring Event in the Spring Store! Here are some of the event rewards!

A brand new material: ATK reroll device that gives double 23 ATK affix on a stigma.
Choose the type that you want (MECH, BIO, PSY or QUA)
 

 FREE S-RANK CARD 

Participate in Spring Event to receive a free S-rank card. Choose one of the shown S-ranks in the image. I highly recommend you to get [Herrscher of the Void] since it is a gacha exclusive valkyrie! Plus, if you purchase her fragments from Battle Pass, she'll be SS-rank in a few patches, which is a pretty good rank for her.

 

 BRIDGE THEME 
Customizable bridges are here. Change the look and background music of Hyperion with these awesome bridge themes!

 

[Taixuan Step] can be obtained by doing Spring event missions

 

[Arc City] theme costs 2580 B-Chips. In 4.6, purchasing this theme will give an additional 1580 Crystal.

 BATTLESUIT RANK-UP ADJUSTMENT

  2. S-rank valkyrie promotion to SS-rank has been changed from [S > S* > S** > SS] to [S > S1 > S2 > S3 > SS]. Total fragments required to rank-up remain unchanged. SS to SSS rank promotion is still the same.
  3. Additionally, valkyries get skill upgrades or even new skills on every rank-up. Previously, new skill upgrades only happened at SS and SSS-rank.
  4. In v4.6, the adjusted system only applies for [Herrscher of Sentience] and [Herrscher of the Void]
