Get ready, Honkai Impact 3rd fans! The v8.0 update, *In Search of the Sun*, is set to launch on January 9th, bringing with it a fresh look for Durandal and a host of new suits and special events. Here's what you need to know about this exciting update.
Here’s the Breakdown
The Honkai Impact 3rd v8.0 update introduces Durandal's new battlesuit, Reign Solaris. This IMG-type Physical DMG dealer comes with a unique twist: Durandal has become smaller and more agile. With two distinct forms, Reign Solaris offers versatile combat options. In Rampager mode, Durandal unleashes a flurry of javelin attacks, while in Skyrider form, she zips around on a hoverboard, delivering lightning-fast combos. Her ultimate move sees her launching into the sky, hurling her javelin, and dealing massive damage to her foes.
Alongside the new battlesuit, the update introduces new gear tailored for Reign Solaris. The Valorous Effulgence weapon and its upgraded PRI-ARM version, New Voyage, enhance QTEs and provide extra javelins. Additionally, the Illuminating the Universe stigma set showcases Durandal's adventures in parallel universes, featuring themes like soccer, bands, and skateboarding.
