Is Honkai Star Rail’s Imbibitor Lunae a five-star Dan Heng?

In short, yes – Imbibitor Lunae is a five-star Dan Heng. Honkai Star Rail’s Dan Heng has some form of secret power that he has hidden or forgotten in an attempt to escape his past since joining the Astral Express. During our adventure aboard the Xianzhou Luofu, Dan Heng’s power is awakened, leading to his transformation into his powerful, dragon-like form.

Who is Honkai Star Rail’s Imbibitor Lunae?

As mentioned above, Imbibitor Lunae is Dan Heng’s true form. He appears as a human with turquoise horns, pointed ears, and long, flowing hair. In his splash art, we see him summoning a dragon made of water.

In this official tweet from the Honkai Star Rail Twitter account, Hoyoverse describes him as the ‘High Elder of the Luofu’ and ‘bearer of the Azure Dragon’s legacy’ who ‘brings forth clouds and rain’ and is ‘entrusted with the duty of guarding the Ambrosial Arbor’. This suggests that he previously held a very high rank on the Xianzhou Luofu.

What is Imbibitor Lunae’s element and path?

In the official splash art, we can see that Imbibitor Lunae is a five-star imaginary damage dealer who treads the path of the Destruction. Characters who align with the Destruction deal outstanding amounts of damage and possess great survivability, making them a great fit for a wide range of combat scenarios.

To get an idea of what type of damage dealer Imbibitor Lunae will be, here’s a list of other Destruction characters:

When is Honkai Star Rail Imbibitor Lunae’s release date?

Hoyoverse is yet to confirm Imbibitor Lunae’s release date. However, as we already have drip marketing for him, we think it’s likely that we’ll get to learn more about him sooner rather than later. The current Honkai Star Rail banners feature Honkai Star Rail’s Blade and Honkai Star Rail’s Kafka, but we think it’s likely that he’ll get his own banner in 1.3. Of course, we’ll be sure to update this guide as soon as we know for sure.

That’s all we’ve got on Honkai Star Rail’s Imbibitor Lunae so far, but rest assured that we’ll update this guide as soon as we find out more.
