How to get Anaxa's E1 in Honkai Star Rail 3.2
Image via: HoYoverse Image via: HoYoverse Image via: HoYoverse Image via: HoYoverse Image via: HoYoverse 1 2 In the newest release of Honkai: Star Rail version 3.2, all attention turns to the wonderful 5-star Wind character of the Erudition path, Anaxa. An AOE damage dealer in his own right, Anaxa is striking the scene with classy animations, fast attacks, and an astounding kit made for crowd control. Still, aiming for the first Eidolon (E1) of Anaxa could be one of the smartest moves to make for an elevation of gameplay, especially in end-game challenges. What makes Anaxa's E1 so special? Anaxa's E1 brings two advantages. It heals when a skill is used for the first time in the raid, and it also reduces enemy DEF upon being struck. While these enhancements may seem uncomplicated on paper, in actual application, they can radically change the tide of battle, especially in Memory of Chaos. MUCH BETTER THAN I EXPECTED! | Anaxa Guide - Best Relics, Lightcones & Teams | Honkai: Star Rail In many of the hardest encounters in Honkai: Star Rail, the SP economy is a great determinant. If a DPS refunds an SP on Skill use, the benefits are enormous, for the freedom of normal rotation is gained, saving other precious SP for teammates or ensuring full aggression without interruptions. Anaxa's E1 shines in this regard, where SP can frequently become a constraining resource in any dual-DPS setup. Anaxa's E1 also bestows a DEF shred effect to his attacks, rendering enemies more vulnerable to damage. This effect complements his Erudition perfectly, allowing multi-target attacks to enhance the team's overall damage, not just his. While his signature Light Cone Life Should Be Cast to Flames has a similar DEF-lowering effect, it cannot restore SP, thus making E1 a more strategic investment for the long haul. Light Cone or Eidolon? Several players will wonder if they should prioritize 5-star Light Cone Anaxa over his E1. Although Life Should Be Cast to Flames offers a bonus Ultimate Energy amount and an incredible damage boost, in most cases it probably will not be best-in-class for every team build — especially dual DPS teams. The problem is that this Light Cone's utility will be heavily dependent on Anaxa's uptime and role, while E1 promises a consistent utility whatever the formation. Other budget options include Before Dawn or Today Is Another Peaceful Day as alternative Light Cones. Hence, for F2P or low-spending users who want to get the most for their penny without the need of chasing every item in the banners, E1 stands out as far more valuable in the long run. Anaxa Is The Most Versatile Erudition Unit! |Best Anaxa Guide, Build & Showcase! - Honkai Star Rail If you are interested to pull Anaxa on version 3.2, you can take one more step and get his E1. Anaxa's E1 definitely has some of the strongest quality-of-life improvements, thanks to SP regeneration and DEF shred, making him feel more breezy, stronger, and team-friendly. Given the constant changes happening within Honkai: Star Rail's late-game content, this pretty much creates the cut between success and failure.
