Each enemy entry includes their weaknesses, move set, and little tips. It also gives a more detailed description of certain states, such as how the Moon Rage state increases the enemy’s SPD and can help restore their HP after they attack an enemy. The enemies that you can read about are the Eclipse Wolftrooper, the Sableclaw Wolftrooper, and the Howling Casket. Of these enemies, the Howling Casket is the only one that’s an Elite enemy.

In Honkai: Star Rail, borisins are a hostile race to the Xianzhou Luofu, as they follow the Abundance. Flavor text and the new Trailblaze Continuance reveal that they enslaved the foxians in the past despite their similarities as species, and that one of their leaders, Hoolay, spent centuries in the depths of The Shackling Prison as a result of the High-Cloud Quintet’s heroics. Feixiao, the Arbiter-General of Yaoqing and a future playable character in Honkai: Star Rail, seems to have borisin blood in her, as her character description references the Moon Rage state that the enemies can go into.

Honkai: Star Rail is readily available on the PS5, Windows PC, and mobile devices.
