Honkai Star Rail Lynx Abilities

With leaks coming out of the woodwork, one leaker named “Hamz” goes into full detail and seems to know exactly what Lynx entails. Below you will find all the abilities mentioned in the leak and the effects of each.

• Basic Attack: Ice Axe Climbing Technique – Deals Quantum DMG equal to a percentage of Lynx’s Max HP to a single target.
• Skill: Pickled Camping Tin – Apply Excitement to a single ally, which increases their Max HP by a percentage based on a percentage of Lynx’s Max HP, which lasts for a set amount of turns. If Target’s current HP is greater or equal to the percentage, it dramatically increases its base chance of being targeted by the enemy.
• Ultimate: Snow Field First Aid Knowledge – Dispels all debuffs on all allies and restores HP for all allies equal to a percentage of Lynx’s Max HP.
• Talent: Outdoor Survival Experience – While casting Skill or Ultimate, restore HP for a set amount of turns. At the beginning of each turn, restore HP equal to a percentage of Lynx’s Max HP; for allies with Excitement, restore additional HP equal to a percentage of Lynx’s Max HP.
• Technique: Chocolate Energy Bar – Restore all allies’ HP equal to a percentage of Lynx’s Max HP.

The leak has a question mark next to the percentage amount, meaning it is unsure how much each ability inflicts. To see the leaker’s official tweet, you can find it below.
