DecemberHonkai: Star Rail - Should You Pull for Robin or Boothill
At E2, Ruan Mei remains a valuable asset with a permanent ATK bonus for allies when attacking Weakness Broken enemies. This is generally useful if the main DPS character scales with ATK and focuses on reducing the toughness of the enemy. However, it's worth noting that while characters like Firefly benefit from ATK scaling (and convert ATK to Break Effect), her kit revolves around Super Break, which doesn't typically scale from Crit or ATK values. Even so, the ATK bonus indirectly helps in such setups since she can make good use of ATK% buffs unlike Flat ATK buffs from other allies. However, the value is still not as significant or versatile as
Natasha, the infamous underworld doctor , is a decent healer that players receive for free partway through a very early section of the game's story. However, she is not much more than that. Other healers have better tools to deal with enemies buffing themselves and debuffing the party. Similarly, even simple shielders provide greater value to sustaining the pa

Firefly is the newest character in Honkai: Star Rail , and she kicked off 2.3 with a bang. She enters an enhanced state with her Ultimate that allows her to dish out some of the best DPS in the game despite damaging herself. Likewise, she is continuing the recent trend of characters easily dealing with Weakness Break. Firefly can inflict Weakness Break on an enemy whether they are weak to her damage type or not, an extremely powerful trait that dominates the game's central mechanic, Fontaine Robots and allows her to slot incredibly well on any t
39. A Spirithief will steal the previous chest, but you won't be able to capture it as the last fissures it escapes to are locked behind boxes. Use the Hand of Zagreus nearby and punch the boxes to break them so you can use Oronyx's power to catch the Spirith
28. Go to the left side of the 3D room and use the Miracle Orb to shine a light on boxes on the lower floor. Then, walk downstairs to the end of the road for a treasure chest. In addition, turn off the Miracle Orb nearby for the following treasure ch
Her Skill deals damage and applies Burden (not counted as a debuff) to a single target. Allies gain a Skill Point for every two Basic ATK, Skill, or Ultimate used on that target, with Burden disappearing after two Skill Points are gained this way. The damage from Hanya's first application of Burden counts towards this effect, so the team will only need three more actions on the target to trigger both Skill Points. Unfortunately, recasting her Skill before both Skill Points are recovered resets the cou
For Boothill, the build might be considered rather more complicated compared to Robin, since he combines a traditional DPS build, which typically involves Crit Rate, Crit DMG, and ATK%, with Break Effect. Given this, players have more stats to pay attention to, with Break Effect taking the most priority among main stats or set effect bonuses. Boothill will benefit from combining sets that provide Break Effect, such as Thief of Shooting Meteor and Watchmaker, Master of Dream Machinations. There isn't much flexibility in this regard, except for considering Champion of Streetwise Boxing as a 2-piece instead. For Planar Ornaments, he is also not as versatile as Robin, though this is expected from DPS characters generally. He can best make use of Rutilant Arena to increase his Basic ATK DMG even further. Considering that Boothill doesn't gain Crit Stats through his traces, reaching a 70% Crit Rate threshold can further increase the difficulty of min-maxing this character. Overall, however, if most attention is put on Break Effect through main stats or even light cone options, sub-stat min-maxing can be made a little eas
Overall, Gallagher's kit is incredibly powerful in the current Break meta, especially when paired with Harmony Trailblazer . He also synergizes very well with debuff-focused units like Acheron and those that use Pioneer Diver of Dead Waters. While Gallagher performs well without Eidolons, his E2 is highly beneficial, with E1 and E4 providing quality of life improvements, and E6 offering slight personal damage and great Toughness damage bo
Honkai: Star Rail is a game that strongly prioritizes making each character feel satisfying to use in their own right. For this reason, there are very few who feel truly unviable. Even though this is the thinnest tier by far, there are still a few characters that players would be better off leaving by the ways
The last treasure chest in "Sanctum of Prophecy" Janusopolis can only be obtained after Trailblazers collect all 10 Nymphs in this area and return them to Garmentmaker near the Destiny's Gate Space Anchor. After succeeding, a small Hand of Zagreus can be seen near the Nymph on the platform. Then, you can go to the lower level using the nearby elevator and take control of the Hand of Zagreus. There are eight circles on the wall, and you need to make the mechanical hand pass through the circles in the correct sequence (3 - 1 - 4 - 1 - 5 - 5 - 2 - 6) to unlock the treasure ch
