Honkai Star Rail version 2.2 is set to introduce Boothill, a highly-anticipated 5-star Physical character following The Hunt path. Known for his single-target damage and intense standoffs, Boothill brings a unique playstyle to the game. In this guide, we'll explore his abilities, materials, kit, Eidolons, and recommended build based on the latest leaks.

Boothill's Abilities

Boothill's kit revolves around his Standoff mechanic and Pocket Trickshot stacks. Here's a breakdown of his abilities:
