Honkai Star Rail: How to unlock March 7th Hunt and Eidolons
The long and short ways to get March 7th's new form, and collect all of her Eidolons up to E6.
Like the Trailblazer's various versions, March 7th Hunt is a new form of an existing character in Honkai Star Rail: as opposed to Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae, who the game treats as a completely separate character from Dan Heng's regular form, allowing them to be on teams together (yay) but forcing you to grind for their levelling materials completely separately (boo). So you'll have to choose which version of March you want in action at any given time, but at least you'll get to carry your base levelling progress over from her Preservation form.
You have two ways to unlock March 7th’s Hunt form: a lore-friendly one and one you can utilize immediately. There’s no consequence for choosing the latter, other than breaking immersion, but if you’ve finished the 1.0 Xianzhou questlines, there’s not much reason to be hasty.
You'll need to equip March 7th Hunt with a suitable Light Cone and Relics, of course, but again she's no different to the Trailblazer in that regard. Unlocking March 7th’s Hunt Eidolons is another matter, because you don't get them in any of the usual ways.
Below we explain how to unlock March 7th's Hunt form and how to get all six of her Eidolons. If you're not sure what's so special about this new form, check out our March 7th Hunt kit explainer.
Honkai Star Rail: How to unlock March 7th Hunt
March 7th’s Hunt form unlocks during the HSR 2.4 Trailblaze Continuance mission March to Mastery: A Star Is Born. You can only start that quest after completing Sojourner’s Ghastly Reverie on the Xianzhou Luofu. Despite chronologically happening after the Penacony storyline – and having characters mention events from the Penacony storyline – you don’t even have to set foot on the planet of dreams to start this new Xianzhou plot. We do recommend it, though, since the Star Rail 2.0 narrative is a big step above what came before.
Anyhow, once you complete the required quest, March 7th’s new form unlocks. You can also access it early from the Travel Log events menu by selecting Primeval Sword Saga and clicking the Unlock Now button. That’ll automatically add March 7th’s Hunt form as an option on her character page, though you’ll still need Penacony items for March 7th’s Trace materials.
Honkai Star Rail: How to get March 7th Hunt Eidolons
March 7th’s Hunt Eidolons work differently from any other character’s Eidolons. You can’t buy them at local exchange stores, and you can’t get them from Warp banner pulls. Instead, you unlock March's Eidolons by completing a couple of Events: Primeval Sword Saga (added in Version 2.4) and Luminary Wardance Ceremony (added in Version 2.5).
Her Eidolons are regular rewards separate from the events' limited-time prizes, so even after the events end, you can still get them by meeting the required objectives in the event archive. Free Eidolons are always a good thing, and it’s worth getting these:
- Eidolon 1 (My Sword Stirs Starlight): Increases March’s speed by 10 percent when her Shifu is on the field. Obtained by completing one story ending in the Primeval Sword Saga event.
- Eidolon 2 (Blade Dances on Waves' Fight): Gives March follow-up attacks: once per turn, when March’s Shifu attacks with a basic attack or skill, she’ll launch a follow-up hit dealing 60 percent of her attack as Imaginary damage and, more importantly, gain a stack of Charge. Obtained by completing three story endings in the Primeval Sword Saga event.
- Eidolon 3 (Sharp Wit in Martial Might): The usual level increase for her skill (+2 up to Lvl 15) and basic attack (+1 up to Lvl 10) – handy, considering how much damage her enhanced basic can deal. Obtained by completing all five story endings in the Primeval Sword Saga event.
- Eidolon 4 (Being Fabulous Never Frights): Regenerates 5 points of energy for March at the start of her turn. Obtained by reaching Plaudit Level 3 in the Luminary Wardance Ceremony event.
- Eidolon 5 (Sword Delights, Sugar Blights): Ultimate and talent level increases of +2 each, up to a maximum of Lvl 15 each. Obtained by reaching Plaudit Level 6 in the Luminary Wardance Ceremony event.
- Eidolon 6 (Me, the Best Girl in Sight): After March uses her ultimate, the crit DMG of her next enhanced basic attack increases by 50%. Obtained by reaching Plaudit Level 12 in the Luminary Wardance Ceremony event.
