Honkai: Star Rail players will get a free copy of Herta by completing a Simulated Universe event, according to a beta leak. Building a decent team is a big deal in Honkai: Star Rail, as players will eventually join the game's most difficult endgame activities to farm precious items. The Simulated Universe is one such activity, which gives Trailblazers a chance to show what their teams are capable of against formidable enemies.
With the closed beta for Honkai: Star Rail update 2.1 underway, some credible leakers have started teasing the upcoming content. Recently, one has revealed that the game will introduce a character selector that only offers a roster of four-star units. Unlike time-limited event banners, it doesn't feature five-star heroes and Light Cones. In addition to the character selector, Honkai: Star Rail version 2.1 will reportedly bring with it new Planar Ornaments and Light Cones players can use to beef up their team's performance.
A new Honkai: Star Rail leak, shared on the Hexenzirkel Telegram channel, shows an in-game screenshot of a Simulated Universe event that offers a free copy of Herta. Interestingly, this event will reportedly take place in the ninth world of the Simulated Universe, and players will also receive Primogem rewards. The leak doesn't give a release date for the upcoming PvE challenge; however, players can expect it to be available in version 2.1.
Honkai: Star Rail's Herta Fits Into Teams As a Sub-DPS
Honkai: Star Rail's Herta is a four-star Ice unit players can use on their team when completing the game's endgame domains. She not only freezes targets constantly but also delivers a degree of AoE damage thanks to her follow-up attacks. Once players unlock her Eidolons, Herta receives ATK and CRIT rate bonuses, which make the Erudition-type unit even more powerful.
Of all endgame activities in the game, Honkai: Star Rail's Simulated Universe features the hardest enemies, requiring Trailblazers to assemble a fully powered team to emerge victorious. Luckily, players have a chance to gain blessings that provide them with buffs. There are a number of domains within the Simulated Universe, each offering players a unique challenge.
Lately, many details about Honkai: Star Rail version 2.1 have been obtained from the closed beta, including that Aventurine will possibly appear as a boss in the upcoming update. He is meant to be a playable character in the second part of 2.1, but seemingly, the five-star Preservation unit will first take on the Astral Express crew at some point in the story. Based on leaks, Aventurine's debut banner will feature a brand-new four-star character, Gallagher.
