The early outline of Tribbie’s kit in Amphoreus characters in Honkai: Star Rail.

The triplets who compose Tribbie as a character were shown running across several doorways highlighting their lore-related ability to traverse through myriad doors and bring tidings from other worlds. Tribbie will not be made playable during Version 3.0, which will see the releases of The Herta, Aglaea, and the Remembrance Trailblazer, but her unique design made her instantly become expected as a future playable character. Now, new information about Tribbie has emerged, not only confirming her as a playable character in the following update, much like Mydei in Honkai: Star Rail 3.1 but also describing her potential gameplay kit.

Tribbie was officially confirmed as a new playable unit in Version 3.1 through the character’s drip marketing, shared in a post on the official Honkai: Star Rail on X (formerly Twitter). The image showcases a new look at the Triplets of Fate, also known as Tribios, and highlights more details about The Messenger. It reveals that Tribbie is capable of splitting herself into multiple pieces, which allows her to set off on a journey. It is also revealed that Tribbie is the Chrysos Heir who has inherited the Coreflame of age from the Titan Janus in Honkai: Star Rail.

Tribbie is considered the Holy Maiden of Janusopolis, one of the major cities in Amphoreus. The character’s mission is to work for the people of Amphoreus and help bring light to the world that has been engulfed by darkness following the ages-long conflict between humanity and gods. Tribbie is confirmed to be a 5-star Quantum character on the Path of the Harmony, which indicates she will be a in team comps. She will likely play an important role in the story of Amphoreus in Honkai: Star Rail, possibly as an ally to the Trailblazer and the Astral Express.

An Early Outline Of Tribbie's Kit In Honkai: Star Rail 3.1 Has Leaked

The Character’s Abilities Allegedly Scale Off Max HP

The details about Tribbie’s abilities haven’t been officially unveiled, but leaks about her gameplay kit have started to emerge, showcasing how she may operate on the field once she is released. The information comes from the leaker known as Shiroha, which was shared in a “Reliable” post on Reddit. According to the leak, Tribbie’s Basic Attack targets a single enemy and adjacent targets, dealing damage to them based on her Max HP. The leak mentions that Tribbie’s Skill grants all allies a percentage of RES PEN against all Elemental Types for a set number of turns in Honkai: Star Rail.

Honkai Star Rail 3.0 Leaks: How March 7th's Shifu Interacts With Remembrance Path Characters

March 7th (Hunt)’s Shifu mechanic may work with characters on the Path of the Remembrance, according to a new Honkai: Star Rail 3.0 leak.

The leak also describes Tribbie’s Ultimate. According to it, Tribbie can consume a certain amount of Energy and create a barrier. While the barrier is active, when an enemy is attacked, the enemy with the highest HP takes Additional DMG equal to a portion of Tribbie’s Max HP. After the barrier is set, the Ultimate deals Quantum DMG equal to a percentage of Tribbie’s Max HP to all enemies on the field. According to the leak, via Tribbie’s Talent, whenever an enemy uses an Ultimate, she executes a follow-up attack in Honkai: Star Rail, dealing Quantum DMG to all opponents.

The leak mentions that Tribbie’s Technique makes the effects of her Skill be applied upon entering battle.

Beyond her main abilities, Shiroha also provided more details about Tribbie’s alleged ive Traces, which were also shared in a post on Reddit. As seen in the leak, her first Trace makes Tribbie restore a certain amount of Energy at the start of the battle. Tribbie’s second leaked Trace says that when the Ultimate’s barrier is active, Tribbie’s Max HP increases by a percentage of the total Max HP of all allies. The third and last leaked ive Trace increases Tribbie’s DMG after triggering the Additional DMG from the Ultimate, an effect that can stack in Honkai: Star Rail.

Tribbie May Disrupt Previous Expectations For Honkai: Star Rail 3.1

Despite Being A Harmony Character, She May Be A Damage Dealer

Because Tribbie is a character on the Path of the Harmony, it was originally expected that she would be a for her team comp. Surely, she can still provide in the form of the leaked RES PEN via her Skill, but it does seem like Tribbie may be one of the most aggressive units to date, to the point that she may even be considered a sub-DPS in some team comps. This is because of her HP-scaling abilities. Most of her abilities allegedly focus on dealing damage based on her Max HP stat in Honkai: Star Rail.

Honkai Star Rail 3.0 Leaks: You'll Want To Save Up For Rerun Banners, Too

While the new characters in Honkai: Star Rail 3.0 are exciting, the leaked rerun characters for the patch are not to be overlooked in any way.

For reference, HP is one of the best stats to build up in a character. When compared to CRIT stat distribution and reaching high levels of Break Effect, for example, Max HP is much easier to increase. While the percentages of the DMG she deals based on this stat have not yet been leaked, that stat alone already points to the potential power it may have. Furthermore, there is a game-changer hidden within her second leaked ive Trace in Honkai: Star Rail. Tribbie’s Max HP grows based on a percentage of the total of the entire team’s Max HP combined.

In turn, this should increase the damage output from her Additional DMG, follow-up attack, and even Basic Attack. Because Tribbie’s Max HP should already be high, she could see a significant damage increase. This is especially true when paired up with the right allies. Characters focused on high Max HP stats, such as Blade or Fu Xuan, could heavily impact Tribbie’s Max HP. Furthermore, the initial details about Mydei’s leaked gameplay kit in Honkai: Star Rail show that he may have well over 20,000 Max HP.

Honkai Star Rail Leaks: New Character Form Sheds Hope For Future Updates

A classic character from Honkai: Star Rail may get a brand-new form in Version 3.X patches, shedding hope for other outdated and powercrept units.

If the leaks about Tribbie’s gameplay kit are correct, then she may not be a for characters who use Max HP as their main stat. Instead, characters with high Max HP stats, regardless of their role in team comps, may serve as s for Tribbie. This is somewhat unprecedented for a Harmony character. While HoYoverse has released some aggressive s, Tribbie may become the very first Harmony unit who isn’t primarily a (despite her rumored RES PEN buff), but a secondary damage dealer in Honkai: Star Rail.
