Honkai Star Rail Dan Heng’s New Form: Leaked Path and Role
According to reliable leaker Luna, Dan Heng’s upcoming Special form will follow the Preservation Path and wield the Physical element. This would mark a return to tanky, shield-based gameplay, as Preservation characters are designed to defend and sustain the team.
Shielding and Summoning Mechanic of Dan Heng SP
The leak hints that Dan Heng SP will be able to generate shields for allies, which aligns with his Preservation role. But what’s more unique is that he can summon a dragon in combat — a feature rarely seen outside Remembrance or Hunt paths.
Interestingly, this summon can be delegated to allies. That means the dragon isn’t always Dan Heng’s — instead, depending on team composition, the summon can be linked to another character, allowing players to build around it with other buffers or support-oriented gear.
