A new leak about the boss lineup in Divergent Universe during Feixiao in Honkai: Star Rail. With his release, Hoolay quickly became a menacing boss to face.

This is because the Borisin Warhead is the fastest enemy in the game, tied with Something Unto Death’s Sombrous Sepulcher. With a base SPD of 264, Hoolay is often the first to take action in battle, dealing massive damage to the team’s before any protection can be applied. Hoolay also has Moon Rage mechanic that allows him to take action immediately. Furthermore, Hoolay can summon Borisin allies and advance their actions, while also allowing them to take extra action every turn. This makes him a relentless opponent, especially with his high HP and damage output in Honkai: Star Rail.

Honkai: Star Rail 3.1's Divergent Universe Boss Lineup & HPs Have Leaked

Four Bosses Have Allegedly Been Selected For Protocol 6

Because of the beta tests for Version 3.1, a new leak highlighting the boss lineup for Divergent Universe has emerged, showcasing which enemies will be featured and how strong they will be. According to information provided by the leaker known as HomDGCat, Protocol 6 of Divergent Universe in Version 3.1 will be composed of four distinct bosses: Borisin Warhead: Hoolay, The Giver, Master of Legions, Lance of Fury, Wonder Forest’s Banacademic Office Staff, and Cirrus. The leak also says that all other bosses were removed from Plane 3 in Honkai: Star Rail’s Divergent Universe activity.

The leak was shared in a post tagged as “Reliable” on Reddit. Aside from highlighting each of the bosses that players may face in Divergent Universe’s Protocol 6 after Version 3.1, the leak also shows how much HP each of these bosses will have. With the exception of Cirrus, a boss who has his HP determined by the combined HP of all the summons that he brings to the field, all the enemies leaked for the activity have three instances of over 59 million HP each, which may force players to bring their strongest team comps in Honkai: Star Rail.

Hoolay Is The Most Frail Among All Leaked Honkai: Star Rail 3.1 Divergent Universe Bosses

The Borisin Warhead Has The Least Amount Of HP

While all these rumored enemies will likely present a huge level of challenge during Protocol 6 of Divergent Universe in Version 3.1, it seems like Hoolay will be the most frail of them all. Based on the four leaked bosses, Hoolay is the one with the least HP. According to the leak, Hoolay will have three instances of 59,967,232 HP, whereas The Giver, Master of Legions, Lance of Fury will have three instances of 79,950,976 HP, and Wonder Forest’s Banacademic Office Staff will have three instances of an estimated amount of 129,920,335 HP in Honkai: Star Rail 3.1.

As such, Hoolay should be the weakest of them when it comes to HP, even if the nearly 60 million HP is still a lot to deal with. If the leak is true, Hoolay may be the most frail, but that does not necessarily mean that he will be the easiest one to take down. In fact, Hoolay is not especially known for having the largest HP of all bosses but instead, his aforementioned SPD. Even if Hoolay is taken down quicker than other bosses with the same amount of damage, he is an offensive boss in Honkai: Star Rail.

Hoolay strikes more times than usual thanks to his SPD and action advance mechanics. The big challenge with Hoolay is not exactly depleting his HP bar, but surviving his onslaught of attacks and strikes from his several Borisin summons, who also strike fast thanks to the boss’ action advance. As such, the big concern when facing Hoolay in the leaked Divergent Universe in Version 3.1 will likely not revolve around making a powerful and offensive team comp, but one that endures a fight that is dominated by Hoolay and his allies.

Players may see a better result during the fight against Hoolay if they use a reliable sustain character in Honkai: Star Rail, such as a shielder like Aventurine or a healer like Lingsha.

The rumors about Hoolay having less HP than the other leaked bosses in Protocol 6 may be a way of balancing the activity’s challenge level rather than necessarily making him an entry-level boss compared to the others. Overall, his damage output and presence during battles should be enough to compensate for the fewer HP he has in comparison to the other bosses, which also boast incredible numbers. The only unknown element in the activity is Cirrus, but then again, he is expected to have a large amount of HP, even if it’s dictated by summoned enemies in Honkai: Star Rail.

Erudition Characters May Thrive Under Leaked Honkai: Star Rail 3.1 DU Bosses

The Leaked Bosses All Have Summons

Based on the leaked bosses, it does seem like players will have a better time facing these opponents in Protocol 6 if they use Erudition characters. This is because all of the opponents mentioned in the leak are extremely reliant on the summons they bring to the battlefield. Even if Hoolay’s summons are more of a bother than part of his actual gameplay mechanics, clearing them out is a necessary step to survive, and that’s where Erudition characters like Argenti, Jing Yuan, and the recently released The Herta in Honkai: Star Rail come in handy.

Erudition characters are, by nature, designed to deal damage to multiple opponents at once rather than focusing their efforts on a single enemy. While some boss fights are best accomplished with Hunt characters like Feixiao and Dan Heng - Imbibitor Lunae, these particular leaked boss fights should have players thriving if they choose a multi-target DPS from the Path of the Erudition. While their individual damage output may be lower than more focused DPS units, they can help clear out the field, increasing the team’s chances of survival in Honkai: Star Rail 3.1’s leaked Divergent Universe.

For now, all of these leaks should be considered with some degree of caution, as reliable as they may seem. The information may be incorrect or subject to change ahead of Version 3.1’s release. Furthermore, it’s clear that the details are still incomplete, as evidenced by Cirrus’ unknown HP (which could be calculated based on the summons he brings to the field). Even so, the combat in Honkai: Star Rail gets ever more challenging in endgame activities, and this leak is the perfect example to show where the game may be heading.
