Honkai Impact 3rd's v8.0 update, In Search of the Sun, arrives January 9th, introducing Durandal's new battlesuit and exciting events.
New Battlesuit and Gear:
Durandal's highly anticipated new battlesuit, Reign Solaris, debuts as an IMG-type Physical DMG dealer with two modes: Rampager (javelin attacks) and Skyrider (hoverboard combat). Her ultimate involves an aerial javelin strike. Reign Solaris is perfectly complemented by the new Valorous Effulgence weapon (and its PRI-ARM upgrade, New Voyage), enhancing QTEs and javelin count. A new stigma set, Illuminating the Universe, reflects Durandal's parallel universe adventures, showcasing themes like soccer, bands, and skateboarding.
