Honkai Star Rail 3.4 Beta Leaks: Jingliu, Blade, Silver Wolf, and Kafka Buffs
Jingliu Buff Details
Jingliu’s buffs fully rework her scaling, now leaning heavily into HP instead of ATK. Her Ultimate and Skill both benefit from enhanced CRIT DMG through a new Moonlight mechanic gained during Spectral Transmigration.
- Skill/Ultimate: All scale with Max HP instead of ATK.
- Moonlight: Each stack grants 44% CRIT DMG, up to 5 stacks.
- Trace 2: Regenerates 15 Energy after using Transcendent Flash.
- Eidolons: Provide higher CRIT DMG and Ice RES PEN, increasing her damage ceiling.
Blade Buff Overview in 3.4 Beta
Blade gets a stat overhaul with all his abilities now scaling purely off HP, eliminating ATK dependency. His kit becomes more energy-efficient and allows better taunting for frontline durability.
- Basic & Skill: Fully HP-based multipliers, making relic builds easier.
- Talent: Enhanced Follow-up Attacks now regenerate 15 Energy.
- Taunt: Skill now increases Blade’s chance to be targeted.
- E1 Eidolon: Bonus damage now applies to both his Ultimate and Enhanced Basic Attack.
Silver Wolf Rework Buffs
Silver Wolf sees one of the biggest functional upgrades, turning her into a reliable AoE debuffer and bug applier. She gains a ton of utility and self-sustain through new passive effects.
- Skill: Implant chance increased from 85% to 120% and duration to 3 turns.
- Ultimate: Becomes AoE with higher DEF Down chance (120%).
- Talent: Bug implant chance now 100%, and DEF Down debuff increased.

Kafka Changes from HSR 3.4 Beta Leaks
Kafka gets multiple changes to better support DoT-focused teams, making her more effective in high-speed and multi-enemy fights. Her Follow-up Attacks now auto-trigger DoTs and boost team-wide DoT damage.
- Skill: Instantly triggers 1 tick of all active DoTs on enemies.
- Follow-up Attacks: Trigger more frequently and now apply DoTs themselves.
- Allies: Now receive a DoT DMG boost when Kafka is in the team.

Conclusion
The 3.4 Beta Leaks hint at a serious meta shakeup in Honkai Star Rail. Jingliu and Kafka are becoming more threatening than ever, Silver Wolf gets upgraded into a full-on support-debuffer hybrid, and Blade’s HP-based rework could make him more accessible to newer players. If these changes hold through to launch, expect major shifts in team compositions going forward.
