<br> | <br>Using **Honkai: Star Rail ** ’s best builds for Himeko is a great way of optimizing the character’s performance and overall damage output on the battlefield. The 5-star hero of the Astral Express is one of the characters that players get to test out during their initial tutorial in Herta Space Station, but then have to part ways with. Luckily, the character is one of the possible pulls from both the Beginner Banner and the Standard Banner. On top of that, there is a 50/50 chance that she will drop from Character Event Banners as well, making her presence in team comps not only common but even somewhat encoura<br><br> <br>Unlike in Genshin Impact , where the Elements are combined to provoke strong Elemental Reactions, Honkai: Star Rail ’s combat system is centered around using the correct Element against a foe’s pre-established weaknesses. Hitting an enemy that is weak to Ice Damage with Ice Damage will contribute more to inflicting the Weakness Break status, for example. Additionally, Elements have different effects, such as DoTs (damage-over-time) and debuffs, when they inflict Weakness Br<br><br> <br>As such, Himeko’s best build in Honkai: Star Rail will require her to equip an Erudition Path Light Cone. On top of that, in order to optimize her abilities, the Light Cone should also intensify her damage output through increased ATK stats or boost the power of her follow-up Talent Att<br><br> <br>The Birth of the Self Light Cone can increase follow-up attack DMG by up to 48%, with an additional 32% increase when the target has less than 50% health left. While it does nothing for Jing Yuan himself, the Light Cone's passive can still boost Lightning-Lord's attacks. If players still don't have Before Dawn or The Birth of the Self, they can make do with either Data Bank or Make The World Clamor for their Ultimate bo<br><br> <br>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<br><br> <br>A Fire Harmony character, Asta's skills primarily center around buffing allies, granting a stacking attack boost whenever she hits an enemy, with extra stacks being granted against fire weaknesses. Although the stacks fall off quickly, the boost is still consistent and useful for increasing a team's damage output, especially in combination with Asta's speed-boosting ultimate. As a slight downside, however, Asta is one of the few free characters in the live service Honkai: Star Rail whose element overlaps with another, which has her competing somewhat for a team slot with Fire Trailblazer - although, on the other hand, one of her ascensions does increase the fire damage of other characters, further increasing her usefulness against fire-weak enem<br><br> <br>Similar to how each of Genshin 's Archons associates with a single element, the Aeons of Star Rail each follow a singular path - although unlike elements (which do still exist in Star Rail ), Paths are much more similar to character classes. Like the Aeons, each of Honkai: Star Rail 's playable characters follows a certain Path, which has important implications for what role they play in battle. Characters following The Hunt path, for example, focuses primarily on single target damage, while The Erudition focuses on multi-target damage. At launch, there are seven Paths implemented in the game's combat, each serving a different gameplay funct<br><br> <br>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<br><br> <br>Although they remain mostly mysterious for now, it's likely that the true nature of the Stellaron will be one of [https://Starrailhub.com/ Honkai Star Rail Strategy]: Star Rail 's major plot points as the game's story progresses through updates. In fact, aside from the Astral Express, at least one of the game's other in-universe factions is based entirely around Stellaron - the Stellaron Hunters. As their name implies, Stellaron Hunters take a keen interest in collecting the objects, although their reasons for doing so are currently unknown. Additionally, aside from being a driving force behind the game's plot, Stellaron also have major associations with another aspect of Star Rail 's world - the Ae<br><br> <br>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<br> | ||
