Leaked Honkai: Star Rail 3.4 beta buffs show major upgrades for Silver Wolf, Kafka, Jingliu, and Blade—aiming to rebalance older characters amid growing power creep.
The Honkai: Star Rail 3.4 beta has barely started, but leaks are already stirring hype—especially for long-time players who’ve felt older characters have fallen behind in the meta.
According to multiple sources, Silver Wolf, Blade, Kafka, and Jingliu are all set to receive meaningful buffs in Version 3.4, signaling a shift in HoYoverse’s approach to power creep.
While Version 3.3 just launched, HoYoverse previously confirmed plans to revamp older characters, and it seems 3.4 is when that effort kicks into gear.
Here’s a breakdown of the leaked buffs coming to some of Honkai’s most popular units:
🧊 Jingliu
- Skill DMG now scales with Max HP — This change should allow her to deal more consistent damage while staying tankier.
- Gains CRIT DMG when allies lose HP — Strengthens her risk-reward gameplay style.
- Earns a Syzygy stack when entering Spectral Transmigration, smoothing out her flow into her enhanced state.
Takeaway: This buff aims to make Jingliu’s transitions more fluid and boost her damage scaling with sustainable HP synergy.
🗡️ Blade
- Skill DMG now scales with Max HP — Encourages tanky builds without losing offensive potential.
- Follow-up attacks now regenerate Energy — Helps with ultimate uptime.
- Using Skill increases Target Probability — More reliable taunting to capitalize on his damage-return mechanics.
Fan Reaction: Mixed. While the changes improve energy regen and survivability, some fans feel Blade’s buff is more conservative than the rest.
🧬 Silver Wolf
- Ultimate becomes AoE — Huge change that boosts her offensive presence significantly.
- Skill now prioritizes Weakness matching the first ally’s type — Makes team synergy and Weakness Break setup more predictable.
- Gains Energy at the start of battle and start of turns — Faster Ultimate cycles and improved utility.
Fan Verdict: Many players are thrilled, speculating that Silver Wolf could shift into a viable CRIT DPS or hybrid role.
⚡ Kafka
- Skill triggers 1 tick of all active DoT effects — Immediate value on application.
- Increased follow-up attack triggers
- Follow-ups can apply DoTs that also instantly tick once
- Boosts team-wide DoT damage
Consensus: Kafka is the big winner in this round of buffs. These changes not only increase her own damage but also enhance the entire DoT team comp archetype, potentially pushing her into top-tier territory.
🔍 Caution
While these leaks are promising, it’s important to remember that Version 3.4 is still in beta, with a full release expected in 5–6 weeks.
HoYoverse could tweak or walk back some of these changes based on internal testing and player feedback.
Still, it’s a strong signal that the devs are committed to keeping older characters relevant, and players are here for it.
