Even though it’s just a reflection, it’s still a powerful foe that shouldn’t be underestimated, especially when the Shadow of Feixiao summons the Ecliptic Inner Beast and becomes significantly tougher.
When the Feixiao boss fight was released in version 2.5, thecurrent meta focused on Weakness Break, so it’s no surprise that beating this Echo of War boss requires depleting the enemy’s Toughness. Here’s everything players need to know abouthow to beat Feixiao inHSR, and some tips about the fight.
How To Beat Shadow of Feixiao In HSR - Honkai: Star Rail
The key to beating Shadow of Feixiao inHSRis tobreak the enemy’s Toughness, somewhat similar to how players can deal with theDoomsday Beast inHonkai: Star Rail.Phase 1is easy since she’s alone and all players need to do is deplete her HP, but it gets tricky in the next two phases when she summons theEcliptic Inner Beast.
Phase 2
InPhase 2, Feixiao fights alongside the Ecliptic Inner Beast. The beast hasthree body parts, each with its own attacks and turn count. The three body parts are:
The normal attacks of these parts are not deadly, but when Feixiao usesHeaven’s Binds, sheresonateswith two of the three body parts. They becomeenhancedand will deal larger damage. Resonance with the head and tail also grants a chance to apply theOutrageandWeakendebuff. Heaven’s Binds is when she stabs her sword to the ground and causes a red prompt to appear on the screen.
No debuff
Weaken
Affected ally deals reduced DMG.
To cancel the resonance effect, players mustbreak the resonating body part’s Toughness. There are three ways you may tell which body part is enhanced:
Players shouldprioritize depleting Toughness on the enhanced body partsto cancel the resonance effect.
Phase 3
Phase 3is about the same as the second part, but there’s a new deadly move that you must survive calledWreathed in Storm.When Feixiao casts this skill,you can’t hit her anymore, and sherestores Toughness to the Beast’s body parts. In the next action, Shadow of Feixiao will useSweep the Heavens, Swallow the Earth, whichgets an enhanced DMG by the number of body parts that are not weakness broken. Afterward, the not-broken body part will also be enhanced for its next move.
