Custom Image by Katarina Cimbaljevic
Honkai : Star Railis gearing up to launch its 3.0 update , but how have the essential displaced person units deal themselves since launch ? 3.0 is looking to be the biggest update the biz has seen yet . Along with short ton of Modern machinist and timber - of - biography update , the run into gacha game is get its first new Path . The Remembrance Path is focused on summoning retainer to assist with wrong , and though this may be a pure DPS course , it may have some hybrid characters to blow up its uses .
Though the meta has shifted numerous times since launching , the effect team ofStar Railhas just changed . Teams are almost always one displaced person , two support characters and one sustain to keep everyone alive . The two areas where this is not the pillowcase are DOT teams , which have been for the most part pretermit since the launch of Black Swan , and Pure Fiction , which ordinarily benefits from two DPS whole to quickly clear opposition waves .
10Jade & Kafka Both Have Future Potential
5-Star Quantum Erudition/5-Star Lightning Nihility
Jade and Kafka apportion a spot due to their current niche uses but huge potential . Jade has a function for future Pure Fiction - pore team with options like The Herta . There is also a chance future Remembrance or Erudition units will grant her to make the most of her outfit . unluckily , pass on the niche nature of this outfit , it is unlikely she is ever anything more than a Pure Fiction medical specialist .
On the other hired hand , Kafka is the premier enabler of DOT teams but suffers from a want of teammates . IfStar Railswings back to this case of meta , Kafka will be a top choice to prock stack often . However , there is the worry that a newer unit will come out that can do its job better , or at least with a new element .
9Imbibitor Lunae Works But Is Clunkier
5-Star Imaginary Destruction
Lunae was a powerful addition to the roster when he was released , and while he can still dish out hurt , he is n’t a top pick anymore . This is part due to the meta sound away from him , and partially how clunky he is . Given that his most powerful attack needs to consume three attainment points , the rest of his team needs to be extremely SP - prescribed , the only alternative is when he habituate his ultimate to get free acquirement points .
The two HoYoverse title have a plenty in common , but comparing Genshin ’s and Honkai : Star Rail ’s characters reveals some surprisingly deep similarities .
With these confinement , the best teammates for Lunae are premium options that revolve around receive Sparkle , one ofStar Rail ’s in effect Harmony social unit , for redundant science points . Without Sparkle , Lunae ’s squad get trickier to manage . Not to the distributor point that he is unuseable , but not as flexible and consistent as the top options .

8Rappa The Weakest Of Break DPS
5-Star Imaginary Erudition
Despite how impregnable Break teams are , Rappa still manages to be slightly underwhelming . Though her outfit is fun and flashy , it is not as strong as her Break competitor . She can be a potent option for Pure Fiction , but that alone is not enough to warrant a high ranking .
Even though the team they habituate are the same , Rappa struggles with the fact she is the only Break DPS without a weakness implant . This hit her grueling to put into any battle that does n’t have a heavy number of enemies weak to Imaginary . This may change a bit with the press release of Tingyun Fugue , who can give her some staying power ignore , but will still leave Rappa behind Boothill and Firefly .
7Dr. Ratio Is Still Amazing For A Free Unit
5-Star Imaginary Hunt
make that he was a liberal game show that most players have , Dr. Ratio is a nigh - top - tier displaced person option . If it was n’t for Feixiao , he would be the best trace - up blast DPS.He is relatively easygoing to build and can dish out more than enough damage to sack up most content in the plot .
If Ratio does have a downside , it would be his good teams are not very liberal - to - play friendly . His expert team tally in Topaz , Robin , and Aventurine , who all fuse for a powerhouse squad with awe-inspiring synergism . He does have some beneficial 4 - Star replacements for more budget accounts , but the downgrade of his best teammate is noticeable .
6Boothill Is Strong If You Play Around Him
5-Star Physical Hunt
Boothill was the first Break DPS added toHSRbut currently fend as the second well . For comparison , he uses the same Break squad units and has high scaling legal injury overall . His problem is like to Rappas , which is the need for strong-arm sapless enemies to be at his most efficient . He has more wriggle way since his ultimate can inflict Physical failing , but is still dull than Firefly .
Boothill , even more than Rappa , may get the biggest boost fromHSR ’s Tingyun Fugue . She would cater his already heavy break - enhanced attack with the power to ignore some toughness . With this , he will be able to get his stacks and ultimate quicker , speed up his stop over - and - go playstyle .
5Jing Yuan Keeps Getting “Buffs”
5-Star Lightning Erudition
When Jing Yuan was liberate , he was a cool character who was unfortunately faint . His personal price was minimum , and his Lightning Lord was too discrepant . However , as character like Sparkle , Robin , andSunday with his best buildshave been release , Jing Yuan has kept receive collateral buffs that have raise his condition .
Another reason to watch for Jing Yuan is next accompaniment graphic symbol meant for Rememberance ’s summons . Since his Lightning Lord counts as one , any keep units that boost the terms , abilities , or focal ratio of process can puzzle out for him too . It ’s unlikely any of these make him a top - tier option , but give him a respectful role given his long time and initial low ranking .
4Yunli Is Extremely Strong While Being Underrated
5-Star Physical Destruction
Yunli was a semi - apace forgotten character since she was released aright before Feixiao , but her strength is n’t to be brush aside . This counterplay specialist is simple to build and deal out incredible damage with her scaling stats . She also has more budget - friendly teams than most top option , making her a beneficial unit for Physical watery enemies .
The struggle with Yunli is consistency . Since most of her scathe is from when she counter an attack , her touch Light Cone is nearly essential to maximize when she is attacked . Without her Light Cone , Lynx can be used as a patch solvent , but this wo n’t be as sustainable as better options . Yunli is still observably powerful with these downsides but exhibit her true strength when she can have her good frame-up .
3Acheron Is Holding Strong
5-Star Lightning Nihility
Though she has fall from her top spot , Acheron is still a premiere DPS option . When built correctly , and surrounded by the right squad , her damage is huge , and her ultimate can be learn quickly . It helps to have her Light Cone , but some alternate choice have been around that help this . Regardless , she can still dish out some of the high scathe numbers in the game .
Acheron ’s declamatory detractors are the parts of her kit that limit her teammates . Without her second Eidolon she needs two other Nhility characters to maximise her ultimate damage , so to fit a Harmony accompaniment , Sparkle being her best choice , some of this involve to be sacrifice . Her estimable void backup is Jiaoqiu who , while useful , was so ecological niche and came out among highly predict character that he was skipped by many . This leaves Pela as a well backup man , but not the dear in expansion slot any longer .
2Feixiao Has Earned Her Top Spot
5-Star Wind Hunt
Feixiao was arguably the most anticipated character of the 2.0 updates , and she lived up to it . This FUA specialist deals amazing damage with her follow - ups and her flexible ultimate . Everything that isbuilt into Feixiao ’s kitmakes her an amazing option for any capacity , regardless of mechanics or enemy weaknesses .
Feixiao also has piffling downside , if any at all . She is wanton to build , has flexible Light Cone option , and budget - favorable teams . Her premier squad of Topaz , Robin , and Aventurine stand out the most , but do n’t lap her other options by that much . Overall , anyone with Feixiao has a unit of measurement that can likely clear most of HSR ’s toughest content for the foreseeable future tense .
1Firefly Is The Queen Of Honkai: Star Rail
5-Star Fire Destruction
As well as the other top options are , they just ca n’t compete with the flexibleness and strength of Firefly . Despite already being a lover - deary when she was released , her kit proved she deserve all the care . This Break DPS can easily implement Fire Weakness onto foe , and her potent outfit can dish up out the most Super Break terms of all three pick .
New Paths in Honkai : Star Rail is a great way to give players pick and bring aging characters back to relevance , but who should get this laurels ?
The other thing that has helped Firefly is the Break support social unit . Lingsha ’s Fire element dead works with Firefly , and before her Gallagher could make use of it too . Tingyun Fugue may not buff Firefly as much as the other two , but she can also work as a mini stateless person unit to quickly break unit . All of this allows Firefly to maximize her time doing Super Break harm . Firefly may not be the top choice for long with a new Path coming , but she is the one building block on this list that is most likely to never fall off inHSR ’s futurity .
Overall , the beauty ofHSRis that , while metas and modes shift . Few DPS units are truly left behind to the point of being unplayable . The only big exit with this have been Blade and Seele , who are unfortunately now too niche to be used perpetually . However , the rest are all still respectable unit that occasionally see indirect buffs from new characters . no matter , going into 3.0 , these are the ten best displaced person characters inHonkai : Star Rail .
