To understand how she works, here\u2019s the best Himeko build in Honkai: Star Rail. How to build Himeko in Honkai Star Rail Himeko is a standard five-star DPS in Honkai who can also easily function as a sub-DPS. She\u2019s a Fire unit that follows the path of Erudition, meaning she excels in follow-up attacks. While she deals a ton of damage, Himeko is not your traditional carry; you can see her performing the best in teams with two damage dealers. To make good use of her entire kit, it\u2019s important you equip her with the right Light Cones, good Relic and Planar Ornament sets, and level up her best Traces. Light Cones Since Light Cones are weapons in Honkai, they increase Himeko\u2019s damage potential by a lot, making them a crucial part of her build. As a follower of Aeon Nous, you can only equip Himeko with Erudition Light Cones and luckily, she has a ton of great options for both free-to-play players and light spenders. Here are the best Light Cones for Himeko: Before Dawn (five-star) Night on the Milky Way (five-star) The Seriousness of Breakfast (four-star) Today is another peaceful day\u00a0 Before Dawn is Jing Yuan\u2019s signature Light Cone and since it offers a lot of offensive stats, it\u2019s Himeko\u2019s best-in-slot. This five-star Light Cone increases Himeko\u2019s CRIT damage by 36 percent and increases her Skill and Ultimate damage by 18 percent. Additionally, whenever Himeko triggers a follow-up attack, her follow-up attack damage gets a 48 percent boost. Night on the Milky Way is Himeko\u2019s signature Light Cone, and it\u2019s another five-star weapon that matches her playstyle. This Light Cone increases her attack by 45 percent, and when Himeko inflicts a Weakness Break on opponents, her damage increases by an extra 30 percent for one turn. If you\u2019re short on Stellar Jades, then The Seriousness of Breakfast is a great four-star option you can get for free from the Forgotten Hall Store. Trace priority To maximize her damage, level her up to 80, and unlock her Traces. Although Himeko is a carry, her main damage comes from her abilities and follow-up attacks, so you can ignore her basic attacks and focus on other parts of her kit. Here are the abilities and talents you should prioritize: Her Ultimate is a giant nuke that deals big AoE Fire damage equal to 138 percent of Himeko\u2019s attack, making it your top priority. Her Talent is important because that\u2019s where those passive follow-up attacks come from. Her Skill is your last priority because it\u2019s another source of damage you use when your Ultimate is recharging. Relics and Planar Ornaments sets Although finding a perfect Light Cone is crucial, equipping Himeko with good Relics and Planar Ornaments is an essential part of this build. As a damage dealer that deals a ton of damage with her follow-ups, her options are straightforward. Here are the best Relic and Planar Ornament sets for Himeko: The Ashblazing Grand Duke (four-piece) Firmament Frontline: Glamoth (two-piece) The four-piece The Ashblazing Grand Duke is a perfect Relic set for Himeko as it provides everything she wants. This set increases her follow-up attack damage by 20 percent, and whenever Himeko launches a follow-up attack, her attack increases by a total of 48 percent for three turns. To make a perfect pair with her Relics, two-piece Firmament Frontline: Glamoth is exactly what Himeko needs. This Planar Ornament set increases her attack by 12 percent, and if Himeko\u2019s Speed is higher than 135, she deals extra 12 percent damage. You can also farm this set easily in World 8 of the Simulated Universe. Relic and Planar Ornament stats and substats To maximize the value of those Relics, you need to get good offensive stats and substats because they are the core of Himeko\u2019s build. Here are the main following stats you should prioritize when grinding those sets: Body: CRIT Rate or CRIT damage Feet: Speed Sphere: Fire damage Rope: Energy Regeneration Rate Proper main stats are important, but they only shine with decent substats. For Himeko\u2019s substats, you should aim for a balanced CRIT ratio, a lot of Speed, and attack percent. Best Himeko Eidolons Himeko\u2019s kit is great even without Eidolons, so she doesn\u2019t need them to perform well. Considering that Himeko\u2019s a standard five-star unit, you\u2019ll get her copies eventually, and you\u2019re in luck because her first two Eidolons are the best ones. They increase Himeko\u2019s Speed by 20 percent and her damage by 15 percent against opponents with half health.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Himeko-Honkai-star-rail.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857151"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2124"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=857151"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857151\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1269879,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857151\/revisions\/1269879"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1269165"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=857151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=857151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

To understand how she works, here\u2019s the best Himeko build in Honkai: Star Rail. How to build Himeko in Honkai Star Rail Himeko is a standard five-star DPS in Honkai who can also easily function as a sub-DPS. She\u2019s a Fire unit that follows the path of Erudition, meaning she excels in follow-up attacks. While she deals a ton of damage, Himeko is not your traditional carry; you can see her performing the best in teams with two damage dealers. To make good use of her entire kit, it\u2019s important you equip her with the right Light Cones, good Relic and Planar Ornament sets, and level up her best Traces. Light Cones Since Light Cones are weapons in Honkai, they increase Himeko\u2019s damage potential by a lot, making them a crucial part of her build. As a follower of Aeon Nous, you can only equip Himeko with Erudition Light Cones and luckily, she has a ton of great options for both free-to-play players and light spenders. Here are the best Light Cones for Himeko: Before Dawn (five-star) Night on the Milky Way (five-star) The Seriousness of Breakfast (four-star) Today is another peaceful day\u00a0 Before Dawn is Jing Yuan\u2019s signature Light Cone and since it offers a lot of offensive stats, it\u2019s Himeko\u2019s best-in-slot. This five-star Light Cone increases Himeko\u2019s CRIT damage by 36 percent and increases her Skill and Ultimate damage by 18 percent. Additionally, whenever Himeko triggers a follow-up attack, her follow-up attack damage gets a 48 percent boost. Night on the Milky Way is Himeko\u2019s signature Light Cone, and it\u2019s another five-star weapon that matches her playstyle. This Light Cone increases her attack by 45 percent, and when Himeko inflicts a Weakness Break on opponents, her damage increases by an extra 30 percent for one turn. If you\u2019re short on Stellar Jades, then The Seriousness of Breakfast is a great four-star option you can get for free from the Forgotten Hall Store. Trace priority To maximize her damage, level her up to 80, and unlock her Traces. Although Himeko is a carry, her main damage comes from her abilities and follow-up attacks, so you can ignore her basic attacks and focus on other parts of her kit. Here are the abilities and talents you should prioritize: Her Ultimate is a giant nuke that deals big AoE Fire damage equal to 138 percent of Himeko\u2019s attack, making it your top priority. Her Talent is important because that\u2019s where those passive follow-up attacks come from. Her Skill is your last priority because it\u2019s another source of damage you use when your Ultimate is recharging. Relics and Planar Ornaments sets Although finding a perfect Light Cone is crucial, equipping Himeko with good Relics and Planar Ornaments is an essential part of this build. As a damage dealer that deals a ton of damage with her follow-ups, her options are straightforward. Here are the best Relic and Planar Ornament sets for Himeko: The Ashblazing Grand Duke (four-piece) Firmament Frontline: Glamoth (two-piece) The four-piece The Ashblazing Grand Duke is a perfect Relic set for Himeko as it provides everything she wants. This set increases her follow-up attack damage by 20 percent, and whenever Himeko launches a follow-up attack, her attack increases by a total of 48 percent for three turns. To make a perfect pair with her Relics, two-piece Firmament Frontline: Glamoth is exactly what Himeko needs. This Planar Ornament set increases her attack by 12 percent, and if Himeko\u2019s Speed is higher than 135, she deals extra 12 percent damage. You can also farm this set easily in World 8 of the Simulated Universe. Relic and Planar Ornament stats and substats To maximize the value of those Relics, you need to get good offensive stats and substats because they are the core of Himeko\u2019s build. Here are the main following stats you should prioritize when grinding those sets: Body: CRIT Rate or CRIT damage Feet: Speed Sphere: Fire damage Rope: Energy Regeneration Rate Proper main stats are important, but they only shine with decent substats. For Himeko\u2019s substats, you should aim for a balanced CRIT ratio, a lot of Speed, and attack percent. Best Himeko Eidolons Himeko\u2019s kit is great even without Eidolons, so she doesn\u2019t need them to perform well. Considering that Himeko\u2019s a standard five-star unit, you\u2019ll get her copies eventually, and you\u2019re in luck because her first two Eidolons are the best ones. They increase Himeko\u2019s Speed by 20 percent and her damage by 15 percent against opponents with half health.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Himeko-Honkai-star-rail.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857151"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2124"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=857151"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857151\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1269879,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/857151\/revisions\/1269879"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1269165"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=857151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=857151"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=857151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
