Honkai Star Rail Lingsha leaks & everything we know
HoYoverseHonkai Star Rail already introduced players to Lingsha, a new character from the Xianzhou Alliance. The Wardance storyline keeps unfolding with new twists and turns, and players will soon be able to add her to their teams.
If you’re planning to pull for Lingsha in upcoming banners, here’s everything we know about her so far, including her leaked abilities, materials, and more.
Who is Lingsha in Honkai Star Rail?
Lingsha is the new Cauldron Master of the Xianzhou Luofu’s Alchemy Commission. She was first introduced during the Wardance celebrations held in the Xianzhou Luofu. While players expected a light storyline, a prison break changed the tone of the adventure with a few surprises.
Lingsha is officially described as “an intelligent and quick-witted Vidyadhara healer” born in the Xianzhou Luofu who had to leave after her master was banished. After changing her name, she’s back in her hometown for reasons players will discover soon.
When is Lingsha coming to Honkai Star Rail?
HoYoverse haven’t confirmed Lingsha’s release date in Honkai Star Rail yet. However, leaks suggest she’ll arrive with the 2.5 update that’s set to launch in September 2024.
If leaks are correct, Lingsha will debut alongside Moze, right after Feixiao‘s banner.
We’ll make sure to update this section once we know Lingsha’s official release date.
Leaked Lingsha abilities in Honkai Star Rail
- Votive Incense (Basic ATK) – Deals Fire DMG to a single enemy.
- Smoke and Splendor (Skill) – Deals Fire DMG to all enemies, restores HP based on Lingsha’s ATK for all allies, and Fuyuan’s Action Advances Forward by 20%.
- Dripping Mistscape (Ultimate) – Inflicts Befog on all enemies. When in the Befog state, Break DMG taken by affected enemies increases for two turns. Deals Fire DMG to all enemies, and at the same time restores HP for all allies. Fuyuan’s Action Advances Forward by 100%.
- Mistdance Manifest (Talent) – Summons Fuyuan when using Skill. Fuyuan has an initial SPD of 80 and an initial action count of 3. During Fuyuan’s action, it launches a follow-up attack on all enemies, dealing Fire DMG based on Lingsha’s ATK, dispels one debuff from all allies, and restores HP to all allies. Fuyuan can accumulate a maximum of five action counts. When the action count reaches zero or when Lingsha is downed, Fuyuan disappears. While Fuyuan is present on the battlefield, using Lingsha’s Skill increases Fuyuan’s action count by 3.
- Wisps of Aurora (Technique) – After using the Technique, immediately summons Fuyuan at the start of the next battle and inflicts Befog on all enemies for two turns.
Lingsha is a five-star Fire character in the Path of The Abundance, meaning she’s a healer. Gallagher shares Lingsha’s element and Path but he’s a four-star unit, so players expect a better overall character in the new addition.
Lingsha seems to have a great healing ability and will also be able to deal lots of Break DMG to enemies. Earlier leaks compared the character’s kit to Luocha and Gallagher’s, as they have many similarities. Now that we have her full leaked kit, we can say she also has some similarities with Topaz and her follow-up attack.
Leaked Light Cone
As a five-star unit, Lingsha will debut alongside her signature Light Cone, and here’s its leaked description:
Scent Alone Stays True
Increases the wearer’s Break Effect by 60% for starters. After the wearer attacks an enemy with their Ultimate, it causes them to enter the Woefree state for two turns. During the Woefree state, increases DMG dealt to enemy targets by 10%, and if the wearer’s current Break Effect is greater or equal to 150%, additionally increases DMG received effect by 8%.
Since this is an Abundance Light Cone, you’ll only be able to use it for Lingsha, Gallagher, and Luocha, as they’re the only healers that use their Ultimate to attack enemies.
