Honkai: Star Rail update 2.1 will add one-click Daily Assignments

A Genshin Impact feature is being launched into space

It’s been a trend for Honkai: Star Rail to receive quality-of-life improvements that fans of Genshin Impact have been requesting for their game long before they’re being implemented in the anime open-world RPG. However, HoYoverse has turned the tables on itself this time around – update 2.1 for Honkai: Star Rail will bring an improvement first introduced to Genshin Impact over to the turn-based space RPG in another example of its textbook cross-game feedback implementation.

Starting with Honkai: Star Rail 2.1, players can collect all rewards from Daily Assignments with one click and send their characters back out on the same tasks with another click – that’s much more efficient than the current method, which has players accept the rewards for each Daily Assignment separately before they can send out their characters again. Just like the one-click Expeditions in Genshin Impact, this improvement will save players lots of time every day.

Since Daily Assignments provide a bit of extra resource and material income, players should definitely make full use of the feature to ensure that they never lack any basic ingredients for character ascension or consumable crafting.

This isn’t the only positive change made in update 2.1. Players can expect their inventory space for Relics and Planar Ornaments to be upgraded once again, allowing them to store more of these items at a time – just in case they might come in handy for an upcoming character. With how difficult it is to farm useful Relics, you’ll absolutely want to hold on to promising pieces.

In their latest livestream, the developers mentioned that farming Relics and Planar Ornaments will become easier in the future, starting with the second category. They stated that they were aware of player frustrations with the current system and had some changes in mind to try and alleviate those issues. Update 2.3 will bring the first batch of improvements in this regard with more to come later. Aside from revealing that those changes will relate to Planar Ornaments and the Simulated Universe, they didn’t provide any further details.

Check out the Honkai: Star Rail update 2.1 overview for its release date, events, and features – the first anniversary of the game is coming up, after all, so there’ll be some goodies.
