Ultimate Hsr 4.6 Banner Guide: Schedule, Character Reruns, and Stellar Jade Strategy
By Maya Lin-Takahashi
The version cycle distributes its featured 5-star units evenly across the six-week runtime. Phase 1 centers on establishing high-impact offensive options, accompanied by targeted signature light cones on the weapon banner. Phase 2 shifts focus toward sustained utility and versatile support options, offering seasoned accounts a chance to complete long-delayed roster builds.
Understanding the timeline ensures players do not burn their Star Rail Special Pass reserves too early. The table below outlines the structural breakdown of the Version 4.6 banners, including operational windows and featured 5-star pairings.
| Phase & Window | Featured New Unit | Accompanying Rerun | Key Light Cones |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phase 1 (Weeks 1, 3) | Featured Debut DPS | Top-Tier Rerun Attacker | Signature DPS Light Cones |
| Phase 2 (Weeks 4, 6) | Specialized Support Debut | Sustain / Hybrid Rerun | Support / Utility Cones |
For accounts lacking coverage in specific elemental or path assignments, Phase 1 offers immediate offensive returns. Conversely, Phase 2 represents a defensive consolidation phase, ideal for stabilizing teams that struggle against endgame damage checks in Apocalyptic Shadow.
