Following the usual tradition, Jiaoqiu’s banner will see its debut on August 21, 2024, along with the second phase of the Honkai Star Rail 2.4 patch. He treads on the Nihility Path, which implies he specializes in dealing damage through DoTs (Damage Over Time). Moreover, Jiaoqiu’s banner will be featuring three 4-star characters just like every other banner.

The 4-stars featured in his limited-time banner are:

• Guinaifen (4-star, Fire, Nihility)
• Hook (4-star, Fire, Destruction)
• Arlan (4-star, Lightning, Destruction)

Keep in mind that Jiaoqiu’s banner will be available until the launch of Honkai Star Rail's 2.5 update.

Jiaoqiu’s signature Light Cone banner will be going live, along with his character Warp banner. While his banner is available, Honkai Star Rail players will be able to acquire the 5-star Light Cone, Those Many Springs.
