Lingsha is a new 5-star character coming to Honkai Star Rail. Like Gallagher, her element is Fire, and follows the Abundance Path.
She is the Cauldron Master of the Xianzhou Luofu’s Alchemy Commission who specializes in using Incense to calm other people’s minds.
If you are excited to add this Vidyadhara healer to your trailblazing party, you have come to the right place. This ONE Esports guide reveals Lingsha’s release date in Honkai Star Rail and details of her 5-star banner.
When is Lingsha coming to Honkai Star Rail? Lingsha release date revealed
Lingsha is scheduled to be released in Honkai Star Rail on October 1/2, 2024, depending on your timezone. Her 5-star banner is part of phase 2 of Honkai Star 2.5 Flying Aureus Shot to Lupine Rue.
At the time of writing, not much is currently known about Lingsha outside of her occupation and personality. Feixiao, the great General who headlines phase 1 of HSR 2.5, has taken center stage in the recent trailers and promotion materials, while Lingsha’s role in the overarching narrative remains a mystery.
What we do know, however, is that Linghsa is being voiced by Whitney Holland (English), who you may remember as the voice of Penny in 2023’s hit farming simulator, My Time at Sandrock, and Kaori Maeda in Japanese, who you may recall as the voice of Lilysa Amano in the ongoing high school anime 2.5 Dimensional Seduction.
When will the Lingsha banner end in Honkai Star Rail?
The Lingsha banner should conclude on October 22/23, 2024. Like other 5-star banners in HSR, you will have three weeks to try and get the Vidyadhara healer.
Update 2.5 will also introduce multiple 5-star banners in both phases. In phase 2, you can expect a returning 5-star banner for Topaz and Numby.
Thankfully, you can get about 20 free pulls in Honkai Star Rail 2.5 via the Gift of Comet and Gift of Odyssey login events, so if you are only interested in getting Lingsha, you might be able to get her without opening your wallet.
