HSR Tier List for Honkai: Star Rail

His single-target damage remains strong, but the build leans harder on E2. His current value also trails the best Elation cores.

Her improved protection and ult resource generation give her a place in several Trailblaze teams, including Himeko • Nova.

Massive teamwide shields make him a safe pick for modern FUA teams. He slots directly into Ashveil comps when the team needs a sustain.

One of the strongest free single-target carries. Another free copy this version effectively gives players E1, and Rin Tohsaka keeps the core highly competitive at low investment.

Fast ult cycling and AoE damage make him a major Saber upgrade. Getting the pair into the top damage bracket takes more Eidolons on Saber.

Better SP recovery and overflow storage fix her old resource problem. She is back to being a reliable T1 buffer.

Good low-investment single-target damage with Wind weakness implant. Cyrene raises his ceiling, but his overall placement remains T1.

Her Skill-copy mechanic works especially well with Phainon, Anaxa, and Mydei. She is strong in those teams, but less effective as a general-purpose support.

Arcana stacks build twice as fast, and overflow stacks now convert into extra damage. Her DoT rotation is much smoother.

Stronger AoE and faster teamwide detonation restore her role as a main engine for the new DoT comp.

Low-investment Mydei has started to fall behind. He remains playable if the roster can support his forced-auto rotation, but he is no longer a high-priority carry.

She is still excellent in Pure Fiction. In MoC and Apocalyptic Shadow, the current matchups expose her much more often.

A dedicated Elation support who speeds up the opener, generates Punchline and Certified Banger, cleanses Crowd Control, and adds some damage.

High Wind multipliers give her solid carry damage. Gilgamesh fixes her ult pace and lifts the full team.

Her multipliers doubled, and low-HP enemies now let her act immediately. The reset loop finally has enough damage behind it again.

DMG buffs, action advance, and turn control remain useful. Evanescia and FUA teams can still use him consistently.

His ult now applies 40% DEF shred, making him one of the better standard-pool investments for newer accounts. At E4+, he reaches T2 and now mainly fills a support slot in Himeko • Nova teams.

She now struggles across the three main endgame modes. Currency Wars is where her roster flexibility still stands out.

ATK buffs and teamwide action advance remain useful, but current top teams rarely have a slot for her.

A solid general support, one tier below the best dedicated options. She remains useful, but she is no longer the default premium slot.

Her kit covers several support jobs without leading any of them. She works as a second-line flex and rarely as the best-in-slot specialist.

Her HP-drain teams ask for both Tribbie and Hyacine to keep up. The teammate cost is now part of the calculation.

Teamwide DEF shred and a cleaner weakness implant give her more general use. She can now target the element the team actually needs.

Exo-Toughness keeps her relevant across Break teams. She has a clear job even after newer supports entered the archetype.

At E2S1 with Mortenax Blade, frequent ally attacks feed her ult far more reliably. Without Ashveil, she remains the second choice for this team.

The Dahlia removes much of the manual routing and speed tuning from his teams. Firefly remains the higher-priority Break carry.

Ashveil gives her FUA team a major lift, but she still leans on Eidolons. E2 is where the team starts to feel complete.

Permansor Terrae brings stronger shields and fits current FUA teams better. Aventurine has little room left in the archetype.

Her endgame performance depends heavily on how often enemies act. Slow enemies and awkward turn patterns make it hard to trigger enough counters.

Her damage has fallen behind newer carries, and new accounts have better places to spend their resources.

She still has a place in Break teams, but her healing can feel strained in the latest high-pressure fights.

Sunday lets Lightning-Lord act multiple times per cycle, so the damage remains usable. The team still falls well short of newer carries.

She remains usable as a standard-pool support and can substitute for Cerydra in a few teams, but the niche is narrow.

The buffs eased some of his damage issues, but his base kit is still dated and struggles in current endgame.

Her ATK buff and Energy support are still easy to use. She remains a practical early-game bridge.

She has a harder time keeping teams alive in current high-pressure fights, and few meta teams still have room for her.

He can fill the sustain slot in Break teams when stronger options are unavailable, but mainly as a budget substitute.

Pure Fiction remains her clearest niche. Her performance drops sharply in MoC and Apocalyptic Shadow.

His healing is still comfortable, and he can cover the sustain slot in budget Castorice teams. Limited utility leaves him with few teams elsewhere.

Even Pure Fiction rarely gives him a favorable matchup now. His damage and slow setup no longer keep pace with current stages.

A temporary Break support when Fugue is unavailable, but no longer a good target for further investment.

He has fallen out of mainstream teams, and the old E2S1 setup no longer offers enough payoff.

A free Pure Fiction option for newer accounts, but her low ceiling makes further investment hard to justify.

Weakness Break and FUAs still give her a budget role in Pure Fiction, but she is now more of a bridge than a priority build.

His debuffs still work, but his overall value is now close to a four-star support. Even Acheron teams no longer treat him as essential.

Teamwide DEF shred and fast ult cycling still help, but her numbers have fallen behind. She is mainly a budget support now.

At E6, he can still support Feixiao, but there are too many stronger alternatives and almost no demand for him outside that team.

He is only slightly ahead of older standard-pool carries now, which makes the investment hard to justify.

She is free and easy to bring to E6, so she works well as an early-game bridge. Most accounts have better long-term build priorities.

Current teams rarely have a reason to field her, and further investment offers too little in return. She is now a low-priority build.

Good tile rolls can still produce decent damage, but her consistency and ceiling have fallen behind. She is now mostly a preference pick.

The shields are too small for current endgame, and the rest of the kit does not provide enough utility to secure a team slot.

His damage is far below current standards, and no team meaningfully fixes the problem. He is one of the lowest-priority builds.

Her counter playstyle still functions, but Yunli and Mydei fill the same role with better damage and easier setups.

The damage and resource efficiency are both too low to justify further investment in this Path.

Pure healing without a cleanse is too limiting in high-pressure fights. She is only a last-resort sustain.

His shields and rotation both lag behind modern sustains, leaving him without a stable team.
