Like many other live-service games, Cute Hsr Charactershonkai Honkai: Star Rail _ provides a number of free characters, some as in-game starter characters and others as rewards for the game's launch, providing a good foundation for new players to supplement with characters pulled from the game's gacha system. Diverging from the real-time action combat of previous HoYoverse games, like _Genshin Impact , Star Rail instead takes the form of a turn-based RPG - although, despite the drastic change in gameplay, many of the game's features and characters will be familiar to players moving over from other games by the same develo

If players want an alternate Relic set, Musketeer of Wild Wheat would also work for Jing Yuan . Although the ATK bonus is smaller (10%), pairing a 2-piece set with a 2-piece Band of Sizzling Thunder will make Jing Yuan's attacks stronger overall. On the other hand, a 4-piece Musketeer would be wasted on him, as he does not typically use his Basic att

While Luocha and Otto Apocalypse as well as Void Archive from Honkai Impact 3rd do not share the same name, their visual resemblance is highly uncanny. Additionally, these characters also share the same voice actor. Furthermore, in Honkai Impact 3rd , Sushang actually calls Otto "Raksha," which does bear a resemblance to the pronunciation of "Luocha." For players who might still think this is just a big coincidence, the developers have also added a small easter egg into Honkai: Star Rail during Luocha's companion mission, where Welt recollects some memories regarding his encounter with Otto and finds Luocha suspici

**The best Light Cone for Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) build is the 5-star Something Irreplaceable ** . While this is Clara’s signature Light Cone and the best one for her build, it also fits the protagonist very well. It has an impressive base ATK stat (635 at level 80), but what makes it shine is its skill. It boosts the user’s ATK by an additional 20%. On top of that, when they defeat an opponent or are hit by an attack, they restore HP equal to 6% of their ATK stat. When this happens, they also get a 20% DMG boost until the end of their next t

Finally, the Trailblazer is Honkai: Star Rail 's main protagonist and pseudo-avatar for the player, similar to Genshin Impact 's Traveler. Uniquely among Star Rail 's playable characters, the Trailblazer essentially comes as a two-in-one package, being able to serve as either Physical Destruction or (after a certain point in the story) Fire Preservation. While the versatility is already a major plus, The Trailblazer is effective in either role, with Physical Destruction being especially valuable for exploiting common Physical weaknesses in the early game, and for its versatility in dealing single-target or multi-target dam

As an Erudition character, Jing Yuan's role in combat involves dealing Lightning DMG with multiple targets. Both his Skill and Ultimate attack multiple targets and increase Jing Yuan's attack count by 2 and 3, respectively. This attack count is important for Lightning-Lord, as high counts deal more DMG with higher SPD in a follow-up attack. Jing Yuan's build is designed to boost Lightning-Lord's attacks and shroud the field in Lightn

Herta, an Ice Erudition Honkai: Star Rail character that players can claim for free after completing the " Simulated Universe: Second Closed Beta " quest, becoming available shortly after the end of the game's initial prologue. Unfortunately, however, she's subject to a few problems that can make her underwhelming to use in battle. As an Erudition character, Herta focuses mostly on dealing multi-target damage, but can't quite keep up with the output of other damaging characters, and offers no utility to make up for it (aside from Ice breaks freezing enemies). Compounding her problems, Herta's Ice element overlaps with March 7th's, making her unnecessary even for elemental cover

Lightning-Lord is the top priority when leveling up Jing Yuan's Traces. This means that his Talent, Prana Extirpated , should be the focus of Trace's ascension, as it is the one that triggers Lightning-Lord. This should be followed by Jing Yuan's Skill and his Ultimate since they both give extra attack counts to Lightning-L

As players get later into the game, however, the Fire Preservation Trailblazer starts to become much more valuable to a party than their Physical counterpart, with constant party-wide shields, respectable damage output, and stellar weakness-breaking capabilities. Additionally, both versions of the Trailblazer are the only characters to be able to obtain Eidolon levels for free, making their strengths even more pronounced compared to the other free characters, and ensuring that either variant has a place on almost any party se

With this skill priority, players should be putting out the maximum damage that they can and getting rewarded with additional ATK whenever Weakness Break is inflicted. Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) build is a great one to use, both in the early stages and in later game cont
