Honkai Star Rail Sunday Kit

Sunday’s kit has been officially revealed by Hoyoverse with 2.7 livestream. Here is everything you need to know about Sunday’s kit in Honkai Star Rail.

  • Basic Attack (Gleaming Admonition): Deals Imaginary Damage equal to 100% of Sunday’s Attack to one enemy.
  • Skill (Benison of Paper and Rites): Makes one ally and their summon to immediately take action, increasing their Damage dealt by 30%. If the ally has a summon, their damage additionally increases by another 50%, lasting for 2 turns. If the Skill is used on the ‘Beatified’ ally, Sunday recovers 1 Skill point. When used on an ally following the path of Harmony, the immediate action effect cannot be triggered.
  • Ultimate (Ode to Caress and Cicatrix): Regenerates 20% of Max Energy for one targeted ally and turns the target and their summon into “The Beatified”. In this state, their Crit Damage increases by an amount equal to 30% of Sunday’s Crit Damage plus 12%. At the start of each of Sunday’s turn, reduces the duration of the “Beatified” state by 1 turn, lasting for 3 turns total. This only takes effect on the most recent target of the Ultimate, and excludes Sunday himself. This effect is dispelled when Sunday is downed.

  • Talent (The Sorrowing Body): Increases the Crit Rate by 20% for the ally chosen by his Skill, lasting for 3 turns.
  • Technique: The first time Sunday uses an ability on an ally in the next battle, the ally’s damage dealt is increased by 50% for 2 turns.
  • Trace 1 (Haven in Palm): If Ultimate regenerates less than 40 energy for the ally, it increases the energy regenerated to 40.
  • Trace 2 (Exalted Sweep): Sunday regenerates 25 energy after entering battle.
  • Trace 3 (Rest Day’s Longing): Using Sunday’s Skill doesn’t consume Skill Points, and this effect can trigger after every 2 turns.
  • Bonus Stats: 37.3% Crit Damage, 18% Effect Resistance, 12.5% Defense

The most notable part about this kit is the ability to Action Forward an ally and their summon at the same time while boosting their damage output. Since Bronya, Sunday will be the first Harmony character to do a 100% action forward with Skill. Other than that, his Ultimate also regenerates energy for one ally and increases their Crit Damage. Sunday’s talent also increases the Crit Rate of the ally chosen by the Skill, making him a complete support for Hypercarry units.

Also, Sunday’s Trace 1 Skill allows him to regenerate at least 40 energy for an ally using his Ultimate, which is quite good.

We also have complete information on Sunday’s Eidolons. Here is everything you need to know:

  • E1 (Millennium’s Quietus): When using skill, increases the targeted ally ignores 16% of enemy Defense and their Summons ignore 40% of enemy defense when dealing damage for 2 turns.
  • E2 (Faith Outstrips Frailty): Recovers 2 Skill points after the first use of Sunday’s Ultimate. Increases the damage dealt by the ‘Beatified’ by 30%.
  • E3 (Hermitage of Thorns): Ultimate Level + 2 and Basic Attack Level + 1.
  • E4 (Sculpture’s Preamble): Regenerates 8 energy at the start of the turn.
  • E5 (Paper Raft in Silver Bay): Skill Level + 2 and Talent Level + 2.
  • E6 (Dawn of Sidereal Cacophony): The Talent’s Crit Rate boost effect becomes stackable (max 3 stacks) and the Talent’s duration increases by 1 turn. When Sunday uses Ultimate, he also applies the Talent’s Crit Rate boost effect to the target. When the talent’s Crit Rate boost takes effect and the target’s Crit Rate exceeds 100%, every 1% of excess Crit Rate is converted to 2% Crit Damage.
