How to start the Paper Duel event
The event starts on June 21, 2024, and ends on the 29th of the same month at 03:59 am server time. After this, it will move to the “Incorruptible Memoirs” category, so it will be available to players at any time. However, before participating in it, they will need to meet a couple of conditions, namely:
- Receive at least level 34 of Mastery.
- Complete the story mission “Stranger in Stranger” country” on the territory of Penaconia.
As soon as you fulfill all the specified requirements, you should automatically begin the starting quest of the event. If this does not happen, then look in the Travel Log, go to the page of the desired event and click on the “Take Part” button.
Rewards for the “Paper Duel” event
By experiencing the arcade duel that was created by the Family, you can earn imprints of fate, 1140 star jades, self-modeling resin, Travel Encounters and other valuable items as rewards.
Which character to choose
After completing the main challenges of the event, you will be able to pick up one of the following 4-star characters:
- Gallagher (Abundance: Fire) is a good healer whose abilities depend on the penetration effect, so he pairs well with damage dealers who play through breaking through enemy vulnerabilities (Boothill, Firefly, and so on). Plus, it can apply a debuff, so it will be a good addition to Acheron.
- Hanya (Harmony: Physical) is a good support, capable of increasing the speed and attack power of allies, as well as giving additional skill points and increasing overall damage in certain situations. She is a universal buffer that can be added to many squads.
- Luka (Nonexistence: Physical) is a secondary damage dealer aimed at destroying single targets and imposing the “Bleeding” status on them. Pairs well with main DDs who value debuffers like Acheron, Black Swan, etc.
- Arlan (Destruction: Electric) is a primary or secondary damage dealer who can show good results early in the game, but over time he starts to bring less and less benefit, so we do not recommend taking him.
We hope that this information will help you complete the Paper Duel event in Honkai: Star Rail and choose the right character as a reward.
