A Honkai: Star Rail leak suggests that Firefly will be the next character to receive buffs. Introduced in Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.3, Firefly is notable for her distinct alternate mecha form.

Following the release of the Amphoreus update, Honkai: Star Rail has been gradually enhancing various characters, including Blade and Kafka, to keep them competitive as the game evolves. Players will have the option to choose whether to apply these new buffs to characters, which is beneficial for those who might favor the original versions of their favorite characters.

A report from leaker Luna indicates that Firefly’s buffs may be implemented in the first half of 2026, aligning with the upcoming major story update—if the information proves accurate. However, specifics about how these buffs will affect Firefly remain undisclosed, leading fans to approach this leak with caution.

Potential Firefly Buffs

Many fans believe enhancing Firefly’s abilities is a wise choice, particularly since her Ultimate meter can sometimes take longer to fill. Players are hopeful that the forthcoming buffs will address this. Additionally, there’s interest in buffing older characters like Imbibitor Lunae, Topaz, and Seele in future updates.

Current Abilities of Firefly

• Basic ATK: Order: Flare Propulsion
• Empowered Basic ATK: Fyrefly Type-IV: Pyrogenic Decimation
• Skill: Order: Aerial Bombardment
• Empowered Skill: Fyrefly Type-IV: Deathstar Overload
• Ultimate: Fyrefly Type-IV: Complete Combustion

During the recent Penacony chapter of Honkai: Star Rail, Firefly was often part of several team compositions due to her ability to deal considerable Break DMG. With the shift to a Super Break meta, her capacity to expose fire weaknesses in enemies has made her an invaluable asset. Her relevance remains, as she can still contribute effectively in various challenges alongside support characters that enhance her damage and shield penetration.

Currently, Honkai: Star Rail is amidst a crossover with Fate/Stay Night, featuring playable characters Saber and Archer, which continues until the early phases of Version 3.6.
