Players that have played any traditional JRPGs, for instance, will understand the combat system in Honkai Star Rail Leaks: Star Rail quite quickly. Games like the early Final Fantasy titles follow the same structure. However, it is important to point out that there are a few other mechanics that come into play that still need to be understood before tackling the game. Developer Hoyoverse’s Honkai: Star Rail has a weakness system and a role system that are intrinsic to every single character, with the exception of the main hero, Trailblazer. Because of this, players need to carefully plan the team members they are taking into each battle of this space advent


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


Character designs are gorgeous. Unsurprisingly, HoYoverse has already managed to stock Honkai Star Rail with a roster of equally appealing, well-designed heroes that will tax players’ willpower and wallets, if they’re so incli


It also boosts DMG by 12% when the user inflicts the Weakness Break status on opponents. While these buffs are very good, they pale in comparison to Something Irreplaceable. Nonetheless, it is the second-best Light Cone for Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) bu

Herta, an Ice Erudition Honkai: Star Rail character that players can claim for free after completing the " Simulated Universe: Second Closed Beta " quest, becoming available shortly after the end of the game's initial prologue. Unfortunately, however, she's subject to a few problems that can make her underwhelming to use in battle. As an Erudition character, Herta focuses mostly on dealing multi-target damage, but can't quite keep up with the output of other damaging characters, and offers no utility to make up for it (aside from Ice breaks freezing enemies). Compounding her problems, Herta's Ice element overlaps with March 7th's, making her unnecessary even for elemental cover


There's also simply more to do at launch in Honkai: Star Rail than expected. Aside from main story progression, there are a multitude of side quests, dailies, and character-specific story quests. Daily text messages from characters serve to add a bit of the mundane to an otherwise grand scope, with discussions about coffee helping ground the budding relationships as the Astral Express seeks to unseat sinister powers. Options to gather experience & crafting materials opens up early, and there's a familiar Trailblazer Level system that serves to gate content getting harder as players begin to complete more and more adventu


As players get later into the game, however, the Fire Preservation Trailblazer starts to become much more valuable to a party than their Physical counterpart, with constant party-wide shields, respectable damage output, and stellar weakness-breaking capabilities. Additionally, both versions of the Trailblazer are the only characters to be able to obtain Eidolon levels for free, making their strengths even more pronounced compared to the other free characters, and ensuring that either variant has a place on almost any party se


**This might be the game that gets me to stop playing so much Fate/Grand Order . ** From a personal standpoint, FGO has been my go-to game on mobile. Part of that is because it’s so easy to stop mid-battle, take out the garbage or wash some dishes, and then come back to finish it. Action-based games don’t provide that luxury, but the turn-based nature of Honkai Star Rail alongside its much more impressive presentation might mean I’m in for a shift in how I allocate my gacha time once it releases. (I will, however, still play entirely too much FGO and Genshin Impact on top of that, so take this with a grain of sa


Trailblazer’s best damage output comes from their Skill and Ultimate attacks, and these should be the ones most used throughout fights. Because Skills are available more times than Ultimates, this should be the main skill priority in Honkai: Star Rail ’s Trailblazer (Destruction) build. Their Ultimate ability should come in second place, followed by their Talent. Lastly, their Basic Attack should be boosted, as it will eventually be used, but not so of


Depending on the opponent, players will have to alter their main team comp to choose characters with Elements that are strong against them. Additionally, they may want to combine the foe’s weakness with an advantageous Weakness Break effect, so it is recommended to obtain as many characters with varied Elements as possible. Below are all seven Elements, along with their respective Weakness Break effect in Honkai: Star Rail ’s combat system, as listed by Game Gui
