Honkai: Star Rail
Guides
DId you know you can unlock a free 5-star character in Honkai Star Rail? All you need is 300 Warps completed.
Through playing the main story you will unlock free Honkai Star Rail characters, one 4-star character for each element. However, 5-star characters are the ultimate goal in Honkai Star Rail. Pulling - or warping - them though can cost time, and if you’re particularly addicted to waifu hunting, money.
What you may not know is that you can claim a free 5-star character after making a certain number of Warps.

Which character should I pick?
Of the seven free Honkai 5-star characters available, Bronya is by far the strongest. Bronya’s Skill Combat Redeployment allows an ally to have another turn with increase damage. This could be used to allow a DPS character such as Seele to do additional damage, or to enable Natasha or another healer to save an ally in danger.
In addition, Bronya is also an iconic character from the Honkai universe and has appeared in some form in every Honkai game to date. We covered Honkai Star Rail’s Bronya and others such as Himeko in our HonkaiCrossover Characters article.
