Reasons why you should be getting Hyacine in Honkai Star Rail 4.1, explored

As mentioned, Hyacine is currently available in Honkai Star Rail 4.1. Her banner will expire when the second half of the ongoing patch commences. Hence, players roughly have two weeks to add this unit to their collection. While she is obtainable, you definitely should get Hyacine.

In the current meta, the premium Castorice team is reigning supreme. Since she consumes all of her allies’ HP alongside her own, Hyacine’s healing comes into play as the amount she can replenish is astonishing. Moreover, she can easily help Castorice gain Newbud charge at a surprising rate, allowing the DPS to summon her memosprite, Netherwing.

Other than that, Hyacine can be played in any compositions, due to her potent healing capabilities. Furthermore, her memosprite, Ica, can deal a significant amount of Wind damage to the enemies. The damage scales with how much HP Hyacine has replenished. Ica’s extra damage can prove to be useful in most endgame activities, since the majority of enemies have abnormally high HP pools.

Hence, if you want to have the upper hand while clearing such activities, then getting Hyacine in Honkai Star Rail 4.1 is a no-brainer. However, pulling a limited-time 5-star character solely depends on the player and their account. If you think your account will benefit from you pulling Hyacine, then do so. Otherwise, save your Stellar Jade for future characters.
