A Honkai: Star Rail leak provides details about Jiaoqiu’s skill set. Each playable unit in Honkai: Star Rail has a distinctive kit that consists of various skills. Using these skills consumes points, which players can accumulate by landing Basic Attacks successfully. Characters are also associated with an element and a path, which dictates what role they will take for their teams.
Honkai: Star Rail brings new characters to its playable roster on a regular basis, giving Trailblazers more options to form decent teams. As in Genshin Impact, playable characters are available through a gacha system that requires players to spend Rail Passes.

A recent leak from HomDGCat has revealed fresh details about Honkai: Star Rail‘s Jiaoqiu, giving fans an insight into his skill set. Jiaoqiu’s basic attack, Skill, and Ultimate have a chance to inflict the Flavour debuff on enemies. The character dishes out Fire damage to multiple targets, regenerating some extra energy when casting his Skill. Moreover, he creates a special dimension and reduces the enemy’s defense by triggering his Technique and the Flavour debuff.
Honkai: Star Rail’s Jiaoqiu Has a Kit That Contains Buffs and Debuffs
Jiaoqiu applies the Aura effect to enemies, which lasts a few turns and allows the character to deal additional fire damage. During this effect, enemies take increased Ultimate damage. One thing to note is that this is Jiaoqiu’s preliminary kit, which means it will likely go through several balance changes in the months ahead.
Jiaoqiu is rumored to be a Fire-type character following the path of Nihility. Players know little about Jiaoqiu, as the HoYo team hasn’t even mentioned him in the story yet. Considering the characters that will debut in Honkai: Star Rail version 2.1 and 2.2 have been revealed, it’s safe to assume that Jiaoqiu will be added to the space fantasy RPG in 2.3 or 2.4 alongside another Penacony-based unit.
Honkai: Star Rail recently revealed that the first phase of version 2.1 will add “Words of Yore” and “Laic Pursuit” event warps featuring Acheron, Gallagher, and a rerun banner for Dan Heng. The forthcoming update will see the return of Luocha, the five-star Imaginary unit following the path of Abundance. Moreover, it’s now confirmed that players will be able to get Honkai: Star Rail‘s Pela (Nihility) from one of these event warps until April 17. In the second part of update 2.1, Lynx, Luka, Serval, and Jingliu will receive their banners alongside Aventurine.
