Honkai: Star Rail - Release Date Characters Gameplay Details

There are eight Light Cones in Honkai: Star Rail based on the Erudition path as of launch. The Light Cone system mirrors the weapon system of its sibling game Genshin Impact in that 5-Star characters typically have a Light Cone tailored to their character. Since LIght Cones represent memories, this tailored approach makes sense. The best Light Cone for any Jing Yuan build is Before Dawn , available in limited-time Wa


The hero follows the Erudition Path in Honkai: Star Rail ’s combat system . This means that she specializes in hitting multiple targets at once with AoE (area of effect) attacks, and her skills certainly reflect that. She is also one of the few Fire characters in the game as of Version 1.0, making her extremely valuable for facing some opponents that may be weak against the element. With the proper build for Himeko in Honkai Star Rail Walkthrough: Star Rail , her powers can be substantially increased, to the point that her optimization makes her indispensable in most team comps – mainly by acting as a secondary DPS that supports the team with damage out


**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


Light Cones are memory fragments associated with different characters, meaning most characters in Honkai: Star Rail have a Light Cone specially designed for their kit. As a central character in the game, March 7th actually has two Light Cones connected to her memory, both of which would prove useful. March 7th's best Light Cone for a Shield build is Day One of My New Life . With a built-in DEF bonus to boost her shield's strength, the Light Cone increases her allies' DMG RES by up to 12%. This is further protection for when enemies are attracted to t


As a 4-Star character in Honkai: Star Rail , it will be easier to collect March 7th's Eidolons than for a 5-Star character. However, if players are working towards a Frozen build, they'll only have to worry about getting Eidolon level three. Level one restores 6 Energy to March 7th when her Ultimate Freezes a target. This will allow players to activate her Ultimate more frequently and continue Freezing enemies until they fall. Level three will boost her Ultimate by two levels for a maximum of Lv


Before Dawn increases the user’s CRIT, Skill, and Ultimate DMG. After they use a Skill or Ultimate, they get a buff called Somnus Corpus, which is consumed when the user triggers a follow-up attack, boosting the attack’s dam


It also boosts DMG by 12% when the user inflicts the Weakness Break status on opponents. While these buffs are very good, they pale in comparison to Something Irreplaceable. Nonetheless, it is the second-best Light Cone for Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) bu


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

All in all, March 7th only becomes a hassle on a team when enemies resist being Frozen. If players are careful with their choice in Relic sub stats, supporting DEF% and Effect Hit Rate, March 7th can remain on their teams indefinit


While Night on the Milky Way is the best Light Cone for Himeko’s build in Honkai: Star Rail , there is yet another 5-star option that goes along well with her. Jing Yuan’s signature weapon, Before Dawn, also fits her skills. The Light Cone offers a 635-point boost to ATK (at level 80), but its skill is what fits her w


This Is Me! is the other Light Cone March 7th can effectively use . This Light Cone is great for her Frozen build while still supporting her shield abilities. It has a higher DEF boost than Day One of My New Life and increases DMG after an Ultimate for up to 120% of March 7th's DEF. This will not only heighten the effectiveness of a Frozen build but will support a Shield build as w


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
