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
In terms of Planetary Ornaments, Inert Salsotto will work best for Jing Yuan . This set will increase Jing Yuan’s Crit Rate by 8%. Because Jing Yuan unlocks a 10% Crit Rate bonus when he reaches A6, he is more likely to get the 50% Crit Rate needed to trigger the set’s secondary perk. The secondary perk increases Ultimate and follow-up attack DMG by 15%. This will strengthen not only Jing Yuan but Lightning-Lord as w
Because the character follows the Erudition Path, Himeko’s build in Honkai: Star Rail will see her using Light Cones of the same category, exclusively. Light Cones are, essentially, the turn-based game’s weapons, so heroes cannot employ different types of them – as a comparison, in HoYoverse’s Genshin Impact , a polearm user cannot wield a bow, and in Honkai: Star Rail , an Erudition Path character cannot use a Destruction Path Light C
**Nowhere To Run is the best 4-star Light Cone for Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) build ** . It operates similarly to Something Irreplaceable in the sense that its boosts ATK significantly and even has HP-restoring properties. The second-best 4-star option for the protagonist is a tie between A Secret Vow and The Moles Welcome
Players can also use the Genius of Brilliant Stars Relic set for Seele’s best build. While it does not build on top of her Speed stat, it does boost The Hunt’s powers. With two pieces, her Quantum DMG is increased by 10%. Four pieces see that she ignores 25% of the DEF stat when attacking weak enemies against Quan
Joining Dan Heng as the other starting party member, March 7th is an Ice Preservation character with several valuable aspects to her skill set. Her skill provides a hefty shield to a single ally, synergizing extremely well with her Talent, which lets her make free attacks on enemies who hit a shielded character. Importantly, her Talent applies to any shield, not just her own, meaning she synergizes extremely well with other shield providers. Finally, her ultimate targets all enemies with a chance to Freeze – a valuable status that’s equivalent to a stun, and can usually only be inflicted by breaking Ice-weak enemies with Ice atta
Similar to Herta, Qinque is an Erudition character using the Quantum element, and can be claimed for free after clearing Memory Stage 3 in the Forgotten Hall – meaning that she won’t be available for players through most of the currently available story unless pulled. While her Quantum element gives her a solid niche among Star Rail ‘s free characters, most of her tools revolve around a heavily chance-based mini-game, making her inconsistent in combat, and, like Herta, lacking in comparison to other damage dealers, especially with a slow-to-charge ultimate and the skill point hungry nature of her tile matching mini-g
Seeing how often Himeko should be using her follow-up Talent, it fits her quite well. It is also great because it makes building her CRIT stats much easier. Of course, 5-star Light Cones can be extremely difficult to obtain considering their tier, so the best 4-star options for Himeko’s build in Honkai: Star Rail are The Birth of Self, which pairs up with her follow-up attacks, or The Seriousness of Breakfast, Constance hsr which boosts her overall ATK and DMG out
The game is expected to run on most devices due to the fact that Honkai: Star Rail ’s system requirements are not too demanding. Android users will need a device with Android 7.0 OS, at least a Snapdragon 835, Dimensity 720, or Kirin 980 CPU, and 3 GB of memory to be able to run the game. The game uses 8 GB of storage on Android. When it comes to iOS users, players should check the list of supported devices, but it is worth mentioning that the game runs on iPhone 8 Plus, so any model that is better than that should be compati
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
