A Reddit user shared a leak with information on Ruan Mei’s complete kit, including her Traces and Eidolons. The character’s basic attack is Orchid Needle and deals damage based on Ruan Mei’s attack status to an enemy. Her skill is Strings Sing in Slow Twirls which gives her a buff that increases the speed and Weakness Break Efficiency of her allies. The Reddit leak reveals that Ruan Mei’s Shake the Flow, Fling the Cloth skill increases the weakness break for all enemies, slows their actions, and deals additional Ice damage. The Somatotypical Helix talent increases allies’ damage output. If Ruan Mei attacks an enemy with a broken weakness, she will also deal extra damage. Her attack reduces the enemy’s Toughness when the battle begins. Her technique is called Wipe the Strings, and Sweep the Sleeves, increasing the Toughness Damage and Break Damage of the new five-star Honkai: Star Rail character.

The leak also revealed Ruan Mei’s Traces, which are Breathing Organism, Time Grows Reverie, and Wax Drips, Water Burns. Traces in Honkai: Star Rail work like the game’s skill tree. For Ruan Mei they increase, respectively, the Break Effect of allies, her energy regeneration, and the damage to Weakness Broken enemies when she is on the battlefield. Her Eidolons are Neural Replication Embroidery (level 1), Reedtide Stroll, Smoke Rises (level 2), Viridescence Sways (level 3), Divinity in Reflected Bronze (level 4), Hairpin in the Languid Crafter (level 5), and Gauze Amidst a Fall (level 6).
