Michael Lin & Fish Ling Interview: HoYoverse's Honkai Star Rail

**Nowhere To Run is the best 4-star Light Cone for Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) build ** . It operates similarly to Something Irreplaceable in the sense that its boosts ATK significantly and even has HP-restoring properties. The second-best 4-star option for the protagonist is a tie between A Secret Vow and The Moles Welcome

The best build for **Honkai: Star Rail ** ’s Seele can significantly improve the hero’s already impressive on-field performance. The character from Jarilo-VI, a member of the Wildfire faction in Belobog’s Underworld, is one of the first 5-stars players encounter during their adventures in the main story. She is also the first character to be featured in a character event banner in the gacha system, which makes her one of the most popular heroes at lau

But yeah, she's one of my favorite characters. And because we have so many characters, the game is actually filled with, you know - it's a character drama, you'll see a lot of different conversations happening between the characters, their mysteries. And that's how the game is engaging to our players, and you know, I like to hope that as I felt it, our players will as w

Out of all the Planetary Ornaments available in Honkai: Star Rail , Belobog of the Architects is perfect for March 7th's Shield build. This set boosts March 7th's DEF by 15%. She can get a second 15% boost if her Effect Hit Rate is 50% or above. Working on March 7th's Effect Hit Rate would benefit her Frozen build while giving more strength to her shields. The other Planetary Ornaments lack the same applicability to March 7th's build as Belobog of the Architects. Therefore, players should use this set regardless of their chosen March 7th bu

With the Aeons numbering at eighteen members - more than doubling Genshin 's Archons - it's currently unknown if all of them will make in-game appearances or have important roles to play - although, like the Archons, it's distinctly possible that some Aeons may become playable in some form as Star Rail receives future updates and additional content. Moreover, the Aeons set up Honkai: Star Rail well to follow a similar story structure to Genshin 's, with updates centering around a single world, as well as that world's associated Aeon. Importantly, however, as Aeons are introduced in the game's story, another aspect of the game's world must be considered - Pa

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

In relation to the story, lore, and gameplay systems of Honkai: Star Rail , three terms, in particular, are important for players to understand: Stellaron, Aeons, and Paths. Each term has a significant bearing on the world and the general plot of Star Rail , making them integral to the game's story. Luckily, they also have easily understandable analogues, both in other HoYoverse games and in general fantasy media, making them not quite as high-concept as they might seem at first. Moreover, the three terms are also heavily associated, making each of them easier to understand in relation to the oth

And for sci-fi, in reality, our developers felt that it's something that provides hope, and it's very inspiring for younger generations to really look forward to. Sci-fi represents something that is classic, and sci-fi plus turn-based RPG is something that we would like to give a try. Yeah, that's how the game came to

Stellaron, also described (somewhat dramatically) as the Cancer of All Worlds, are a major driving force behind the story of Honkai Star Rail guide: Star Rail , being the basis for the game's plot. Created by a character known as Nanook, Stellaron are mysterious objects that tether themselves to certain worlds, seemingly granting the desires of the planets and civilizations that they tether to. However, Stellaron are also responsible for bringing great catastrophes to the worlds that they associate with - as such, the crux of Star Rail 's plot has the protagonist faction, the Astral Express, both dealing with the harm caused by the Stellaron and researching them furt

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
