Honkai Star Rail standard banner
The Honkai Star Rail standard banner is called Stellar Warp. It’s a permanent fixture that offers the chance to pull from the standard pool of characters and light cones.
The standard banner includes the following five-star characters:
- Bailu (Lightning, Abundance)
- Bronya (Wind, Harmony)
- Clara (Physical, Destruction)
- Gepard (Ice, Preservation)
- Himeko (Fire, Erudition)
- Welt (Imaginary, Nihility)
- Yanqing (Ice, Hunt)
Unlike the event banner, the Honkai Star Rail standard banner only requires regular Star Rail passes, which are far more common than their special counterparts. While you can’t pull limited characters like Seele or Imbibitor Lunae from this banner, there are still a variety of highly coveted five-star characters that you’re in with a chance to win – be sure to check out our Honkai Star Rail tier list to discover the best of the bunch.
