Honkai Star Rail Paths, Elements, Light Cones, and Relics Ultimates can be used at any time and don’t cost any Skill points, but it takes a while to charge them. In other words, you need to carefully balance between basic attacks and Skills throughout the fight. A Skill costs Skill points, while basic attacks recover Skill Points.

Be sure to consider your opponent’s weakness if you see a little icy icon underneath their name, for example, it means they are weak to Ice damage.Įach character has three types of attack: a basic attack, a Skill, and an Ultimate. Once you’ve entered a Honkai Star Rail battle, you can see the attack order in the upper left corner. Honkai Star Rail features seven different Elements: including Physical, Fire, Ice, Lightning, Wind, Imaginary, and Quantum. With up to four playable characters per team, you need to consider attacks, support abilities, and Elemental types to form the best combinations. Teambuilding is at the core of Honkai Star Rail’s combat system.

The Warp system features permanent and time-limited banners, with the time-limited banners rotating every few weeks. While the game itself is free to play, you’ll have to use this gacha system, also known as the Warp system, to obtain characters and weapons of the highest rarity (five stars). Like previous HoYoverse games, Honkai Star Rail uses a ‘gacha system’ with chance-based character and weapon rewards.
