Turn-based games may not be something new, butHonkai: Star Railmanages to add interesting twists to it. For instance, while battling, players will not only attempt to compose a party to deal the highest possible damage, but they also must pay attention to the enemy’s Weakness to deplete their Toughness and eventually trigger a Weakness Break. Weakness Break comes with two types of damage, one happensexactly when the Weakness Break is triggered, while the other deals damageat the start of the enemy’s turn as a DoT. Both damage scale withaHonkai: Star Railstat calledBreak Effect.
However, while Break Effect may seem useful, ensuring the character with the highest Break Effect stat to trigger a Weakness Break is far from practical. Therefore, with the existence of Ruan Mei as a Weakness Break support and Xueyi, whose kit revolves around Break Effect, players can finally try their best and play around this stat. To help bring Xueyi to her best position, here are someXueyiteam compositionsthatHonkai: Star Railplayers can try.
3Xueyi + Ruan Mei + Silver Wolf + March 7th
Ruan Mei is a must-have in Xueyi’s team sinceshe greatly supports Xueyi’s playstyle. From providing a Break Effect stat bonus, Weakness Break efficiency, and even further delaying the enemy’s action (which Quantum break already provides), having the Genius Society Member #81 is sure to bring Xueyi’s performance to another level.
Since both Xueyi and Ruan Mei work around Weakness Break, having Silver Wolf who can apply a weakness to any enemy is the perfect addition. Next,players need to have a healeror shielder who bears the Quantum or Ice Element. This is so that Silver Wolf will only apply either Quantum or Ice weakness, ensuring the team constantly reduces the enemy’s Toughness.
There are several options for this, likeLynx,Gepard,March 7th, andFu Xuan. Here’s what players can expect from each character:
2Xueyi + Silver Wolf + Seele + Lynx
If only Silver Wolf is available on the players’ roster, they can make a Xueyi team comp that revolves around amono-Quantum team. In this team, players can replaceSeelewithQingqueor useFu XuanoverLynx, but Seele + Lynx is more favored than the other options. Qingque is highly demanding in terms of Skill Points and not as flexible as Seele. Fu Xuan is great, but if players ever mess up and are now low on HP, they won’t have an emergency healer as Fu Xuan’s healing is too small to be reliable.
Theidea of this team is to let Silver Wolf place a Quantum Weaknesson the enemy, then let Seele and Xueyi grind the Toughness away. When a sufficient amount of Toughness remains,use Xueyi to trigger a Weakness Breakon the opponent.
1Xueyi + Ruan Mei + Luka + Healer
If players wish to see the highest DMG Xueyi can deal, then they can bring a debuffer likeLukaorPela. However, considering Xueyi’s Ultimate hit a single target,Luka is the better option since he’s an amazing single-target debuffer, whereas Pela is better in AoE battles.
Ruan Meionly needs to use her Skill once every three turns andLuka’s debuff lasts for three turns, which means this team is Skill Point-positive. Therefore,players can bring any healer that they want. The best option for this isHuohuo. Huohuo only heals from her Skill, which means players need to constantly use it if they wish to keep the team alive, but in an SP-positive team, this is no issue. Each Skill use will restore more Energy for Huohuo, which means she can Ult more often, allowing the entire team to regain a large amount of Energy as well. This eventually leads to Xueyi being able to trigger Weakness Break faster with her Ultimate.
