Clarifying the Confusion: When and How to Claim the Free Dr. Ratio in Honkai Star Rail 1.6
Cover-Credits:
The Honkai Star Rail community awaits the upcoming release of the 5-star character, Dr. Ratio, who will also be given for free to players. But amidst the hype, there seems to be some confusion on social media about when and how players can claim this character for free. In this article, we aim to clarify the details surrounding the acquisition of Dr. Ratio and ensure players are well-informed about when and how to claim the free Dr. Ratio.
The Gift of Dr. Ratio: A Token of Appreciation:
It's important to highlight the generous gesture from HoYoverse in gifting Dr. Ratio to players in version 1.6 of Honkai Star Rail. This complimentary character is a token of appreciation to the player base for their unwavering support and follows HoYoverse's recent wins at The Game Awards, including Best Mobile Game, iPhone Game of the Year, and Google Play 2023 Best Game.
Claiming Dr. Ratio in Version 1.6
Contrary to some players' misconceptions, Dr. Ratio will not be available for claiming right from the start of the 1.6 update. Players must complete the Trailblaze Mission 'The Blue — A Moment of Peace' to unlock the Mailbox function in the game. Only then, during the release of version 1.6 'Panta Rhei event warp,' can players claim Dr. Ratio from their account Mailbox.
Free Dr. Ratio Claiming Process
The free Dr. Ratio is claimable through the account mailbox, but players must have unlocked the Mailbox function. Players need to complete the Trailblaze Mission 'The Blue — A Moment of Peace' to unlock the Mailbox function. Upon the release of the Panta Rhei event warp in Version 1.6, Dr. Ratio will be sent to the account mailbox for all eligible players. Open the account mailbox and claim the 5-star character Dr. Ratio.
Free Dr. Ratio Claim Period
Another critical point of clarification is the time frame during which players can claim Dr. Ratio for free. The window of opportunity spans from the release of the version 1.6 Panta Rhei event warp until the end of version 2.1.
Rewards Beyond Dr. Ratio
Honkai Star Rail's generosity doesn't end with Dr. Ratio alone. Players will also have the chance to get Lynx, a 4-star Abundance character, for free by completing any phase of stage 2 in the new Pure Fiction game mode introduced in version 1.6.
