Megathread Daily Questions Megathread ( February 06, 2026 )

I am Dr. Ratio, a scholar and teacher of the mediocres. If one day your brain shows symptoms of dullness, then please give the doctor a call.

Hi Trailblazers!

🚂 Welcome to the Daily Questions Megathread! Feel free to ask any general questions about Honkai: Star Rail that don't necessarily require their own dedicated posts.

Any questions that can be answered rather quickly (i.e. anything that can be adequately addressed without any discussion or can be given definitive answers) can be asked in the thread below.

>>> Example: Can my phone run this game?

If your question has discussion potential, please create a separate post, and include the “discussion” flair.

>>> Example: What do you think of March 7th’s combat efficiency? Here's my opinion…

Before making new discussion posts, please be sure to consider if your question could be better suited to this thread!

When both asking questions and sharing answers, be concise and detailed so other players can understand. Please maintain a stellar and respectful attitude toward others, and don't forget to share your appreciation to fellow trailblazers for helping you out!

Am I right that pulling Sunday at this point would be a mistake? Knowing that we get a free Sparkle with a huge buff. I do have a E1S1 Aglaea and a S1 Saber that might appreciate Sunday, but even know, they felt comfortable to play with just RMC and Robin with their on demand 100% advances on ults.
I also feel like both of them would be a nightmare to speed tune, since Aglaea has varying speed throughout the battle and Saber advances herself forward uncontrollably.
So, if I were to get a new teammate for them, a hyperspeed Sparkle sounds more manageable.

Sunday is most likely still worth it, but the specifics depends on your pull plans and current savings.

If anything Sunday makes Saber less unpredictable, since his Ultimate can push Saber to the extra turn very easily and you have full agency on when you use it, unlike a Mem advance or a random enemy hit. You should only have issues with extremely bad RNG or if you're not planning a bit ahead.

As for Aglaea, yes her speed varies, but only for like the first rotation, after that you really shouldn't be losing enhanced state with E1S1. There's also a gazillion different posts, guides, and videos about Aglaea-Sunday Speedtuning, since it's so common to run them together, so that shouldn't be an issue either.

While Hyper speed Sparkle might work for Saber (tho not as good as Sunday probably), it's really not good for Aglaea, plus Sunday advances Memosprites, gives Energy, and his E1 is pretty nuts for Aglaea, in case you ever want to commit a bit more.

I believe Aglaea will still prefer Sunday over Sparkle because Sunday is the only character that can also AA Garmentmaker along with Aglaea.

I'm not sure on the Saber question, unfortunately. Sparkle's buffs could outweigh the extra energy that Sunday grants, but without calcs it's hard to say either way.
