Honkai: Star Rail is back with the latest character overview video. This one is dedicated to Jiaoqiu, General Feixiao’s personal doctor and cook (even if he would vehemently deny the latter). He is the latest limited 5-star hero, walking the path of Nihility and belonging to the Fire element.
“Breaking News: Mr. Jiaoqiu habitually writes “More sesame oil, more spice, a lot more green onions, but no coriander” in his notes when ordering milk tea for the general.”
Jiaoqiu was born into a distinguished Alchemy Commission family. Though he often greets others with a warm smile, beneath this facade lies a cunning nature. Jiaoqiu’s mastery of alchemical prescriptions, particularly those that view food as medicine, is unparalleled. His true skill exists in discovering meals that inspire the senses and bring about unique recipes rich with spices.
As a Fire-Type character on the Path of Nihility, Jiaoqiu’s abilities are unique and formidable. Any attack Jiaoqiu lands has a possibility to inflict Ashen Roast debuff. When the enemy is inflicted with Ashen Roast, they effectively suffer from the Burn state. As Ashen Roast stacks grow, the amount of
damage enemies suffer will also increase.
When Jiaoqiu activates his Ultimate, the battlefield transforms into an enormous yuanyang hot pot, compounding the effects of Ashen Roast for enemies already afflicted, in line with the current highest number of stacks. This also creates a field lasting for several turns, where enemies sustain increased Ultimate DMG and may receive additional stacks of Ashen Roast during their actions. This debuff helps teammates like Acheron acquire Ultimate charges faster, enhancing their combat effectiveness.
