A new leak about Dan Heng SP2 has stirred curiosity in the Honkai Star Rail community. Shared by the reliable leaker HomDGCat and reposted by @hxg_diluc on X (formerly Twitter), the leak hints at some intriguing mechanics that may set this version of Dan Heng apart from his original and Imbibitor Lunae forms.

According to the leak, Dan Heng SP2 will likely feature a skill that targets an ally, rather than an enemy. While the exact function of the skill remains unknown, it’s suspected to have a supportive or protective nature—potentially offering shielding effects, which aligns with earlier rumors that place him on the Preservation Path.

Preservation Path & Support Role Possibility

If the Preservation classification proves accurate, Dan Heng SP2 could be the next go-to unit for defensive support. Shield-granting skills have proven useful in various team comps, especially in high-difficulty content. However, this is still speculative, and fans are advised to wait for confirmation in future beta reveals or developer previews.

Unique Summon Mechanic Leaked

The leak also teases a non-memosprite summon—something players have seen before with characters like Jing Yuan’s Lightning-Lord and Lingsha’s Fuyuan. These summons act as additional units on the action bar, effectively adding another layer of strategy and damage potential.

What makes this particularly exciting is that non-memosprite summons have been less common than Remembrance-style summons since Version 3.0, where Memosprite-heavy units have largely dominated the meta. Dan Heng SP2 could introduce a new gameplay flavor if his summon brings unique tactical options.

If the current leaks hold true, this version of Dan Heng may become a valuable asset for teams needing flexible support with added utility through summons.
