When will Saber become available in Honkai Star Rail?

Saber’s rarity, element, and more in Honkai Star Rail

The developers have also addressed Saber’s playable Path, element, and more. As a collab character, she is a 5-star unit. Furthermore, she hails from the Destruction Path and wields the Wind element.

Given her Path, she will fill the main DPS role across various team compositions right after her release. Besides that, she will be extremely effective against enemies that are weak to the Wind element.

Since Saber boasts a 5-star rarity, she will be featured in a gacha banner, like most characters featuring the same rarity. Hence, players will have to spend a significant amount of Stellar Jades to add her to their collection. She will also feature Eidolons; thereby, players who want to increase the character’s fighting prowess can get their hands on some copies.

As Saber will be featured in a new banner, the normal character event warp banner pity won’t carry over to the collab one. This means players wanting to pull for Artoria will need to save as many pulls as they can, as the pity from pulling in the normal limited-time character event banner won't carry over to Saber’s gacha banner (when it becomes available).
