Honkai Impact 3rd's v8.0 update, In Search of the Sun, arrives January 9th, introducing Durandal's new battlesuit and exciting events.
New Battlesuit and Gear:
Durandal's new IMG-type Physical DMG battlesuit, Reign Solaris, boasts two forms: Rampager (javelin attacks) and Skyrider (hoverboard combat). Her ultimate involves a sky-high javelin barrage. The update also includes the Valorous Effulgence weapon (and its PRI-ARM upgrade, New Voyage), designed to enhance Reign Solaris's QTEs and javelin count. A new stigma set, Illuminating the Universe, reflects Durandal's parallel universe adventures, featuring themes like soccer, bands, and skateboarding.
Story and Event Updates:
Chapter VII, Part 2: Bouquets of Unfulfilled Wishes, continues the Ten Shus War narrative on Mars, exploring Coralie's fate and a mysterious eye in Helia's mind. A new cube puzzle game, featuring Vita and young Durandal, offers rewards including 60 million Crystals and Source Prisms.
The Countdown: To Sweet Dreams event features comedic encounters with Mei, Theresa, Fu Hua, Herrscher of Sentience, Griseo, Carole, and Vita. Players assist Kiana in a drum-based boss fight, command followers in battles, and even engage in monster training. Rewards include Emblems, Crystals, Source Prisms, and Senadina's new outfit, Steering Inequations.
