Argenti is one of the many upcoming playable characters that leaked for Honkai Star Rail. The knight captured attention of fans with his androgynous appearance, references to new lore and the upcoming region in the game.

Who is Argenti in Honkai Star Rail (HSR)

As of version 1.0, Argenti does not appear in the game yet. He has been teased by multiple leakers for a yet unspecified update which means that information presented below is subject to change.

According to a well-known leaker Mero, Argenti is a knight of the “Order of Pure Beauty”, who is a devout follower of the star goddess Idrila. He is of upright and honourable character, and travels to spread the name of Idrila across the universe.

A leaked graphic shows him as a man with long, crimson hair and gray eyes, wearing a suit of silver and red armor with rose motifs on the shoulder plates. He is surrounded by rose petals and has a rose stem winding around his sword or rapier.

Because of Argenti’s long hair and the misinterpretation of his description in Chinese, Argenti was initially leaked as a female character. However, reliable sources in the community have confirmed that he is male in the game files.

Based on Argenti’s aesthetic, he most likely hails from the next leaked major location to be added to Honkai Star Rail after the Xianzhou Luofu storyline concludes. Currently codenamed as “World 3”, the planet (or ship) is rumored to be based on the US and France in the 1800’s and early 1900’s. It is difficult to estimate when the release of the new location may be, but it is unlikely to come out before 2024.

A leak by HKSRVN has also revealed that Argenti will appear as a Boss, but it is unclear if we will fight him only in the storyline or in Simulated Universe as well.

Argenti as playable character in Honkai Star Rail (HSR)

Although gameplay related data coming long before the release of a character may change significantly, thanks to leakers such as Mero and Pom Pom Archive we have a look into Argenti as a playable character.

He will be a 5 star unit following the Path of The Erudition, which focuses on AoE attacks. His element will be Physical. According to the kit leak from Mero, Argenti’s damage will scale off the ATK stat, have the ability to Stun enemies and increase his own Crit Rate.
