Honkai: Star Rail Revives Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae in Major Rerun Event

The highly requested rerun of Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae is now live in Honkai: Star Rail, bringing powerful combat mechanics and nostalgic storytelling.

On July 18, 2024, HoYoverse launched a limited-time character banner featuring Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae, one of the most popular 5-star units in Honkai: Star Rail. Originally introduced in version 1.3, this Dan Heng variant wields the Imaginary element and excels in sustained single-target damage, making him a top-tier choice for challenging content like Memory of Chaos and Simulated Universe.

Who Is Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae?

Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae is a past version of the current Dan Heng, hailing from the doomed world of Xianzhou Luofu. His abilities center around accumulating 'Lunar Essence' to unleash devastating attacks. His ultimate, "Final Eclipse," deals massive Imaginary damage and applies debuffs that reduce enemy resistance.

Players who missed his initial release now have a chance to add him to their roster. The banner also includes a 5-star Light Cone, "In the Name of the World," which synergizes with his kit by boosting damage after skill usage.

Simulated Universe: Swarm Disaster Expansion

Alongside the banner, version 2.4 introduces a new phase of the Simulated Universe called "Swarm Disaster: Infinite Evolution." This update adds a new mechanic where enemies evolve mid-combat, gaining new abilities and resistances based on player actions.

New Blessings from the "Nihility" and "Destruction" paths have been added, offering fresh build strategies. One standout is "Adaptive Mutation," which grants bonus ATK for each debuff applied to enemies.

The mode is designed to test adaptability, rewarding players who can pivot strategies mid-run. Weekly challenges now offer additional rewards, including Mora, skill materials, and Stellar Jade.

Mobile Optimization and UI Updates

The 2.4 update includes smoother animations and reduced input lag on mobile devices. A new "Quick Swap" feature allows players to switch characters mid-combat with a swipe gesture, improving tactical flexibility.

Additionally, the inventory management system has been overhauled, allowing bulk enhancement of Light Cones and Relics, saving significant time for endgame players.

"Dan Heng IL is back not just for power, but for story. His arc is central to understanding the Xianzhou's fate."

Event Duration and Rewards

The Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae banner runs from July 18 to August 7, 2024. Logging in daily during this period grants up to 600 Stellar Jade and exclusive chat bubbles.

A new achievement, "Eclipse Reborn," awards an avatar frame for players who ascend Dan Heng IL to level 80.

With compelling gameplay, deep lore, and strategic depth, Honkai: Star Rail continues to attract both gacha veterans and JRPG fans. The return of Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae is more than a power spike—it’s a narrative milestone.
