Honkai: Star Rail 3.4 isn’t just about new banners and events—it’s a major milestone for quality-of-life (QoL) improvements that reshape the way we play. From streamlined farming to smarter relic management, these subtle-yet-powerful features are massive time savers, especially for daily players grinding through MoC, Calyxes, and Pure Fiction.
If you’ve logged in and missed the changelog—or you’ve been too busy pulling for Firefly or Robin—here’s your quick guide to everything new, ranked by just how much time and effort it can save you.
๐ฅ 1. Multi-Battle Auto Continue (Stagnant Shadow, Calyxes)
Why it’s #1: This is a game-changer for anyone farming EXP, traces, or materials. Instead of manually repeating battles, 3.4 allows you to automatically chain multiple runs in one go.
-
Where it applies: Calyxes, Stagnant Shadows, Crimson/Golden Calyxes
-
Why it matters: Skip repetitive clicks, especially when grinding in bulk
-
Community reaction: Universally loved. Saves minutes per session—adds up fast.
๐ฏ Pro tip: Combine this with Auto Mode and Speed x2 for maximum farming efficiency!
๐ฅ 2. Relic Comparison & Filtering Overhaul
-
Quickly see if a relic is an upgrade for your current build
-
Filter substats with better accuracy
-
Instantly compare equipped vs unequipped relics
Perfect for players chasing optimal substat rolls or theorycrafters fine-tuning their damage numbers.
๐ฅ 3. Trace Material Drop Info + Quick Navigation
Ever get lost navigating the Survival Index? Now you don’t have to.
In version 3.4, you can preview material drop zones and fast travel directly from the Trace screen, making character ascension and progression smoother than ever.
๐ This tiny fix removes multiple clicks from the process—especially helpful for newer players upgrading multiple characters at once.
๐ 4. Team Auto-Save by Mode (Calyx, MoC, Pure Fiction)
This one’s for all you meta chasers and daily grinders.
You no longer have to rebuild your teams every time you swap between MoC, Calyx farming, or Pure Fiction—your last-used team is saved per activity type.
-
Bonus: Includes team preview when re-entering
-
Use case: Save DPS-heavy squads for MoC, AOE teams for PF, and autofarm setups for EXP Calyxes.
๐ 5. Quick Retry Button – Pure Fiction & Simulated Universe
Fail a run or want to improve your score? Instead of returning to the main menu, you can now retry instantly from the results screen.
-
Great for score optimizers in Pure Fiction
-
Also works in Simulated Universe for weekly grind resets
-
Streamlines retry loops and resets frustration
๐ 6. Warp Banner Pity Tracker Integration
Finally, no more counting 10-pulls manually! Honkai: Star Rail 3.4 adds a live pity counter directly on the warp banner UI.
-
Shows total pulls on the banner and soft pity approach
-
Essential for free-to-play users managing Stellar Jades
๐ง 7. Enhanced Enemy Info in MoC & Pure Fiction
Planning your next floor just got easier. The Enemy Info UI now includes:
-
Turn order
-
Elemental weaknesses
-
Full wave structure preview
This helps theorycrafters and casual players build proper teams without external tools like Prydwen or Hoyolab sheets.
