HSR Tier List for Honkai: Star Rail

Action advance and DMG amp keep them relevant for most 3.x carry teams. A reliable tempo support when the roster has no dedicated option.

A dedicated Elation flex. They speed up the opener, generate Punchline and Certified Banger, cleanse Crowd Control, and add some chip damage.

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

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

Good low-investment single-target damage with Wind weakness implant. Cyrene raises his ceiling, though he now sits in the T1 pack.

Her protection is better, and the ult now feeds the resource Himeko • Nova teams need. That gives her a clear home in several Trailblaze comps.

Her Skill-copy mechanic works especially well with Phainon, Anaxa, and Mydei. Strong in those shells, less convincing as a blind flex.

Arcana stacks build twice as fast, and overflow stacks now pay out instead of going to waste. Her DoT rotation feels much cleaner.

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

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

ATK buffs and teamwide action advance still work. When a comp lacks its dedicated support, she is often the cleanest bridge.

Low-investment Mydei is shakier now. He is still playable if you like the forced-auto rhythm, but he is not a high-priority carry.

His buff package still holds up: DMG amp, action advance, and reliable turn control. Evanescia and FUA teams continue to use him well.

His ult now cuts enemy DEF by 40%. At E4+, that is enough for T1, and Himeko • Nova gives him a clear team.

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

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

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

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

Permansor Terrae now outclasses his shielding, and his old FUA niche has shrunk with it.

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

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

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

Her endgame performance depends too heavily on enemy action frequency. Slow or awkward matchups drag her down fast.

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.

Healing can feel thin in the newest high-pressure fights, but her place in current Break teams is stable.

Her damage profile now feels dated for a limited carry. New accounts have better places to put their resources.

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

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

With Sunday, Lightning-Lord can move multiple times in one cycle. The damage is usable, though the comp no longer pushes the top tiers.

A budget Cerydra substitute for the few teams that want a standard-pool support. The niche is narrow, but usable.

The buffs help on paper. His base kit is too far behind for most current endgame content.

Raw healing remains comfortable, and some Castorice teams can use him as a budget sustain.

A practical bridge support for newer accounts. ATK buffs and energy are simple, useful, and easy to fit early.

Keeping teams alive is much harder for her now, and mainstream comps rarely have a comfortable slot left.

He has fallen off hard enough that even newer Pure Fiction waves can feel difficult.

A workable Break substitute if you are missing Fugue, but not a long-term priority for most rosters.

He has fallen out of mainstream teams, and the old E2+sig appeal is not enough to carry him now.

A backup Break sustain when the stronger options are missing.

Pure Fiction gives her a clear niche. MoC and Apocalyptic Shadow are far less friendly, which keeps her in T3.

A free Pure Fiction bridge for newer accounts, with a low ceiling. She is budget coverage, not a priority build.

Break plus FUA keeps a budget PF niche alive, but she is no longer a serious build priority.

His value is now close to a four-star support slot. Even Acheron teams no longer treat him as mandatory.

Current content does not give her much to do. She is no longer a priority build for most accounts.

DEF shred and fast ult cycling still help, but her numbers are dated enough to keep her in T4.

At E6, he can support Feixiao. Outside that niche, he has very little work left.

He is only slightly ahead of old standard-pool carries now, which is not enough to rank him higher.

Good rolls can produce decent damage. She is a fun pick now, not a serious account priority.

Free and easy to max out, but mostly an early bridge unit now. Current accounts have better long-term build priorities.

The shield values are too low for modern content, leaving this path without a serious role.

The damage is too low for modern content, making him one of the clearest low-priority builds.

The counter playstyle works, but Yunli and Mydei do the same job better.

This path no longer gives current accounts a good reason to spend more resources on it.

Pure healing with no cleanse is too limited now. She is only a last-resort sustain.

Fully powercrept. His shield plan no longer keeps up with current content.
