Honkai Star Rail’s next banner to be featured this week is Jing Yuan, who is expected to be an AOE beast for your team.
The 5-star lighting character follows the path of Erudition. This means you can most likely see him clearing out the field and dish out a respectable amount of damage to multiple targets.
Adding to this, he also has a powerful ally with the Lightning Lord, who can potentially deal some devastating follow-up attacks at the interval of your turns.
Check out the official tweet below which features the character’s past.

As of this writing, the current banner highlights Seele. The character proves to be a very effective hero for your roster because of his high quantum damage output.
Also, she has a passive effect called “resurgence” which gives another turn for her whenever she successfully eliminates an enemy. Perfect for those hyper-carry team builds.
Jing Yuan will appear in the next update this May 17, 2023. Like the current banner, you can expect him to be around for 3 weeks.
