Fans of Honkai: Star Rail, brace yourselves. Leaks surrounding the next version (2.1) suggest significant changes to the popular Pure Fiction game mode, and they might not be what you were hoping for.
Honkai: Star Rail 2.1 Pure Fiction Mode Gets Tougher: Fewer Rewards, New Enemies Await
For the uninitiated, Pure Fiction is Honkai: Star Rail’s newest endgame mode. Players face waves of enemies within a time limit, aiming to rack up points and secure valuable rewards, primarily Stellar Jades used for Rail Passes. Building a powerful and versatile team is crucial for success in this combat-focused mode.
Changes on the Horizon
Now, let’s dive into the not-so-positive leaks. According to reliable Honkai Star Rail leaker HomDGCat, players can expect:
- Reduced Point Rewards: Bosses, a major point source, will now award 3000 fewer points, dropping from 8000 to 5000.
- Lower Points from Elites: Trotters and elite enemies will also see a decrease in the points they offer, further impacting overall point accumulation.
While the reward structure seems to be getting tighter, a another leak suggest Honkai: Star Rail isn’t shying away from offering a challenge. Version 2.1 is expected to introduce a lineup of formidable new enemies, including:
- Dreamjolt Troupe: Bubble Hound, Mr. Domescreen, and Birdskull
- Memory Zone Meme-Heartbreaker
- Automaton Beetle
- Blaze out of Space
- Stormbringer
- Illumination Dragonfish
What Does This Mean for Players?
While the official patch notes haven’t been released, these leaks suggest a potential shift in Pure Fiction’s difficulty and reward balance. Players might need to adjust their strategies to maintain their current pace of point accumulation, and the new enemy roster promises a fresh test of skill.
It’s important to remember that these are leaks, and the final changes might differ. However, they offer valuable insights into what to expect from the upcoming Honkai: Star Rail update. Stay tuned for official announcements to confirm the specifics and prepare for a potentially more challenging, but potentially more rewarding, Pure Fiction experience.
