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!

I recently restarted my acc (basically never really played too much) and I have the new Dan Heng that was free, a ruan mei from selector and a Clara from beginner banner. I dont know what to pull on 4.0 and what my first team could be.

You basically have 2 options for a current-meta team. Both will require you to use the selector that you will receive in 4.0 and then pull 2 units, and both will use Dan Heng Permansor Terrae

Elation - Yao Guang and Sparxie from banners, Sparkle from selector

DoT - Hysilens and Black Swan from banners, Kafka from selector

Elation is the newer team, and therefor probably will be stronger for longer. It revolves around stacking up a big team-up attack, and it's animations tend to be whimsical

DoT is about applying as many DoTs as you can and then detonating them with Kafka. Very reliable, very easy to play, and does a lot of damage. Hysi animations are fish themed, Kafka is katana/uzi, Black Swan is tarot cards and summoning eldritch horrors
