A new update for Trailblazer in the future Honkai: Star Trail patch was leaked, indicating that The main character’s cosmetic value will be raised to standard with special path animations. Currently, the protagonist of HoYoverse’s turn-based RPG is one of the few characters capable of changing Paths. So far, the Trailblazer has unlocked the Paths of Destruction, Preservation, and Harmony, though they are expected to get more alignments in the future. Another character capable of changing Paths is the 7th of March in Honkai: Star Trail. March 7th can switch between his Preservation and Hunting Paths via the character page.
When Trailblazer and March 7th change Paths, they maintain their rarity and are essentially the same character. This differs from how Imbibitor Lunae and Fugue are 5-star units, separate from the 4-star versions of Dan Heng and Tingyun, for example. In these cases, the same characters are treated as completely different characters and, as a result, there is a change in their Paths and elements. Now, there may be an update for the Trailblazer in Honkai: Star Trail This should affect a cosmetic aspect of the character, bringing it closer to the standard imposed by another unit.
Honkai: Star Rail Update Could Add Animations to Trailblazer Path Switching Mechanics
The main character can now follow on March 7th
As seen in new information provided by the leaker known as HomDGCat, there is leaked coded data showing that the Trailblazer will gain animations when switching paths in the game. The leak compilation was shared in a post tagged “Reliable” about Reddit. Currently, when the Trailblazer changes path, this is simply what happens – there is no visual flair. This became more noticeable with the March 7th release (Hunt). When the character switches Paths Honkai: Star Trailthere is a brief animation to show your transition from Preservation to Hunt and back again.
The animations on March 7th also highlight the character’s different weapons. In her Preservation form, she uses a bow, while in her Hunted version she wields dual swords. Unlike Trailblazer, March 7th also uses different costumes, highlighting the Path-swap animation. While the leaked animation for the Trailblazer’s Path change didn’t highlight different outfits, per se, players could see his different weapon sets, such as the baseball bat from the Destruction form, the spear from the Preservation version, or the hat from the Harmony Path in Honkai: Star Trail.
Other updates are cited in Honkai: Star Rail Leak
Trailblazer’s fourth path leaked
The leaked animation wouldn’t be a huge change, but it would add cosmetic value to the Trailblazer. The March 7th path switching animation set a new standard, and the main character is currently outside of it. If the leak is true, the protagonist will be taken to default. The leak also highlights other updates, such as the fact that there is data on the fourth Path of the Trailblazer in the game, even if further details about it are still scarce. The leaker mentions finding the data for the model ID of the new path for the main character in Honkai: Star Trail.
The leak also highlights that Fuga em Honkai: Star Trail will become a new visitor to Astral Express with the arrival of version 2.7 and her official introduction as a character. For now, all these leaks should be taken with caution. Information provided by HomDGCat may be incorrect, incomplete, or subject to change prior to the release of each update. However, the prospect of the Trailblazer having animations to better illustrate changes to the Path would be a nice cosmetic touch to Honkai: Star Trail.
