Himeko is a familiar face for Honkai: Star Rail players who previously played Honkai Impact 3rd. Even Genshin Impact players expect her to be the primary inspiration for the Pyro Archon, Murata. In Honkai: Star Rail, Himeko is a Fire-Erudition character who specializes in AoE attacks. She's part of the Astral Express family along with Welt, Dan Heng, and March 7th.

Farming Himeko materials in Honkai: Star Rail can be done in the early game. Her required enemy drop can be found in several areas, and players should also have plenty of them from sending characters on an assignment. Himeko's weekly boss drop is also familiar as she needs the item given by the Doomsday Beast, the monster that players fight with Himeko at the start of their journey.
