Ruan Mei is the first ever 5-star limited Harmony character to be released in Honkai: Star Rail . Despite powerful options like Sparkle and Robin appearing during the Trailblazers’ journey in Penacony, she has remained a solid support character. Her utility has increased even further with the addition of strong DPS units like Boothill and Firefly, and she also has excellent synergy with Harmony
Collecting Boothill’s ascension materials in Honkai: Star Rail will help him become a more effective damage dealer for the team. His best traces revolve around exploiting Weakness Break, enhancing his overall damage out
Boothill is a Physical unit that follows the path of Hunt in Honkai: Star Rail . He is known for his single-target-oriented DPS role and exceptional ability to leverage Weakness Break due to his unique kit. Boothill can implement Physical Weakness on enemies, enhancing his basic attacks and utilizing a great scaling Break Effect , which allows him to deal massive dam

Teleport to the Remnant Hall of Truce Space Anchor at ‘Strife Ruins’ Castrum Kremnos and look to your left to find the shining blue light on the ground. Interact with that as well to receive the achievement. This is also something that should’ve been picked up during the main Trailblaze quest, but if not, you can just come back and claim
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
Bronya is the preferred second Harmony unit here since she can force other team members to take their turn, accelerating Toughness Bar depletion by having the right characters attacking more frequently. Players can get her for free after they do 300 pulls on the standard ban
Tingyun is the game’s best 4-Star, and has been since her inception. She grants a very strong damage buff, with her Ultimate providing enough Energy to often let her teammates simply cast their Ultimate immediately following h
While Robin and Boothill both follow Physical paths, their roles are distinct, each offering unique playstyles compared to existing characters within their respective paths. Despite some similarities with other characters, the primary decision between them hinges on whether players prioritize acquiring a support character or a DPS character. Alternatively, players may choose to forego both in favor of saving up Stellar Jades for upcoming characters in future version upda
Ruan Mei at E1 offers exceptional value, making her an excellent choice for those looking to maximize utility without heavy investment. When her Ultimate is active, all allies benefit from a 20% DEF ignore on their attacks, significantly boosting overall damage output in battles. Considering that DEF ignore is not reliant on any character’s stat regardless of what they are scaling (May it be Break Effect, ATK, HP etc.) this Eidolon is highly versatile for any character players may want to utilize her with. Furthermore, it stacks with other sources that may ignore target’s DEF, such as Firefly’s first Eidol
Fu Xuan is Honkai: Star Rail ‘s premiere Sustain character . Her skill is a huge tool for any party’s damage reduction, redirecting damage to herself, in combination with an emergency self-heal. Fu Xuan can tank better than any other character in the Anime game Updates, and can render even her squishiest teammates unkilla
With her last eidolon, Ruan Mei extends the duration of her Ultimate by one turn – which is a good comfort upgrade, ensuring a more consistent uptime for All-Type RES PEN buff from E1, especially for those setups / builds which cannot activate it every 2-turns with enough Energy Regeneration. Additionally, it also synergizes the Ultimate uptime better with the DMG buff from her signature light cone, Past Self in Mirror, which also lasts 3 turns. However, considering the high investment required for this Eidolon, it is still not as significant value-worth wise, especially for low spenders, despite on its own being a good QoL-oriented Eido
