Honkai: Star Rail Leaks Reveal Anaxa's Versatile Abilities
Recent leaks from Honkai: Star Rail offer a glimpse into the anticipated gameplay of Anaxa, a new character slated for the Amphoreus region. These leaks suggest Anaxa will be a highly versatile addition, possessing a kit brimming with utility.
Anaxa, one of several Star Rail iterations of Honkai Impact 3rd's "Flame-Chasers," is poised to debut in a future Amphoreus update. His arrival follows the release of Herta and Aglaea (Version 3.0) and Tribbie and Mydei (Version 3.1). While HoYoverse remains tight-lipped on specifics, leaks paint a picture of a character with significant impact.
The leaks, originating from Honkai: Star Rail leaker Hellgirl, indicate Anaxa's abilities will center around manipulating enemy weaknesses, similar to Silver Wolf, and delaying enemy actions, a mechanic shared by characters like Silver Wolf and Welt. Beyond utility, Anaxa is expected to contribute offensively, potentially through defense reduction and damage amplification for himself or his allies. No official release date has been confirmed.
Anaxa's rumored abilities blend strengths from several popular characters. His weakness application mirrors Silver Wolf's flexibility, while his defense reduction resembles Pela's utility. The ability to delay enemy turns is a powerful tool already seen in Silver Wolf and Welt's kits.
This combination positions Anaxa as a potentially dominant support character, potentially rivaling established supports like Ruan Mei and Robin, as well as newer additions like Sunday and Fugue. With Tribbie's damage-focused support already anticipated in Version 3.1, Anaxa's arrival could significantly alter the Honkai: Star Rail meta. The exact timing of his release, however, remains unknown.
