Update: Anaxa’s kit has been updated based on the latest HSR 3.2 beta leaks on March 17, 2025
Anaxa is one of the Chrysos Heirs that is yet to appear in the HSR Amphoreus storyline. That hasn’t stopped him from gathering a sizeable fan following and admirers in the community. With Anaxa’s drip marketing revealed officially, fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief since the character will be playable soon.
Anaxa is rumored to be a game-breaking character, with his leaked kit hinting at a mechanic that would make him an instant must-pull in the game. If you want to learn more about Anaxa in HSR, here is everything we know about Anaxa’s kit, eidolons, stats, traces, signature light cone, materials, and release date in Honkai Star Rail.
Honkai Star Rail Anaxa Drip Marketing
Hoyoverse has finally released Anaxa’s Drip Marketing, right before the Honkai Star Rail 3.1 livestream. The Drip Marketing reveals Anaxa’s full name — Anaxagoras and mentions that he is one of the Seven Sages of the Grove of Epiphany and founder of Nousporists. Anaxa’s Drip Marketing also hints at a strict no-nonsense personality. Anaxa apparently has two rules for everyone — first is to not call him Anaxa and second is to never interrupt him, both of which will likely be broken into pieces once he meets the Trailblazer.
The Grove of Epiphany, where knowledge flourishes and philosophers are born. Yet here stands Anaxagoras the blasphemer, the Chrysos Heir who challenges the Coreflame of Reason: Would you truly embrace infamy and defy prophecy, driving the thorns of doubt into the Sacred Tree of wisdom? — “Ridiculous. In a world full of lies, I am the only truth.”
The Drip Marketing also reveals that Anaxa is after the Coreflame of Reason, and that his divine authority is of Cerces and Bough of Rift. Although this is the first official information we have learned about Anaxa after the Amphoreus trailer, he appears to be an extremely complicated and interesting character.
Honkai Star Rail Anaxa Release Date
With Anaxa’s Drip Marketing released, it is confirmed that Anaxa will be released in Honkai Star Rail 3.2, likely in the second phase. If the version cycles occur as per the norm, then we can expect Anaxa to release around April 28, 2025. Anaxa will share the HSR 3.2 version with Castorice, the other 5-star character, and Chrysos Heir confirmed for version 3.2. Both Castorice and Anaxa appear to be very interesting characters, so get your hands on extra Stellar Jades using HSR codes to stay prepared for version 3.2.

HSR Anaxa Kit Leaks
Anaxa’s kit has been leaked in the recent HSR 3.2 beta via Sakura Haven and other sources and posted on Reddit. We have compiled all the information and put it together here to create Anaxa’s kit in Honkai Star Rail.
- Basic Attack (Pain, Brews Truth): Deals single target Wind Damage equal to 100% of Anaxa’s Attack.
- Skill (Fractal, Exiles Fallacy): Deals Wind Damage to a single target equal to 60% of Anaxa’s Attack and then deals 4 additional instances of damage. Each additional damage instance deals 60% of Anaxa’s Attack as Wind Damage to a random single enemy, prioritizing targets that were not hit by this attack. For each enemy target available to be attacked on the battlefield when the Skill is used, increases Damage dealt by this Skill’s usage by 15%.
- Ultimate (Sprouting Life Sculpts Earth): Inflicts the “Sublimation” status on all enemies lasting until the start of each target’s turn with a 100% fixed chance and immediately deals AoE Wind Damage equal to 150% of Anaxa’s Attack. The Sublimation state inflicts the targets with Physical, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Wind, Quantum, and Imaginary weaknesses simultaneously, and if the target doesn’t have Control Resistance, they are unable to take action in this state.
- Talent (Tetrad Wisdom Reigns Thrice): Each time Anaxa attacks enemy targets, he inflicts one random Type Weakness to the targets for 3 turns, prioritizing Weakness Types that the target is yet to have. When Anaxa is on the field, he inflicts the “Qualitative Disclosure” state to the enemy targets with at least 5 different Type Weaknesses. Additionally, Anaxa deals 60% more damage to targets in the “Qualitative Disclosure” state.
- In addition, using a Basic Attack or Skill on targets inflicted by the Exposed Nature state allows Anaxa to use another one instance of his Skill. This additional Skill does not consume any Skill Point and cannot be triggered again. If the target has been defeated before the additional skill is used, it will be dealt to a random enemy unit.
- Technique (Pupil of Prism): Sends the enemies within a set area into the Terrified state. Enemies in this state will flee in a direction away from Anaxa for 10 seconds. When entering battle against enemies in this state by attacking, it will always be considered as entering battle via attacking a weakness. After entering battle, Anaxa will apply 1 Weakness of the Attacker’s Damage type to every enemy target after entering battle, lasting for 3 turns.
- Trace 1 (Roaming Signifier): When using Basic Attack, additionally regenerates 10 energy. If there are no enemy targets in Exposed Nature state at the start of the turn, Anaxa regenerates 30 energy.
- Trace 2 (Imperative Gap): Based on the number of characters on the path of Erudition in the team, Anaxa triggers the following effects in the current battle: (One) Increases Anaxa’s Crit Damage by 140%, (more) Increases damage dealt by all allies by 30%.
- Trace 3 (Qualitative Shift): For every different Weakness Type an enemy target has, the Damage that Anaxa deals to that target ignores 3% of Defense up to a maximum of 7 Weakness types.
- Trace Stat Boosts: 22.4% Wind Damage Boost, 22.5% Defense Boost, 6% Crit Rate Boost
The leaks about Anaxa’s kit in Honkai Star Rail reveal very interesting information. The most trustable leak reveals that Anaxa can apply weaknesses on enemies while dealing increased damage based on the number of weaknesses applied on them. If the leaks are true, then Anaxa will completely replace Silver Wolf, as she can only add weakness on one enemy at a time.
As Anaxa is also an Erudition character, this means he will be the second support-oriented Erudition character since Jade and will become a good pair for The Herta teams.
