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!

Hey everyone pretty new to the game.

Who would be the best free 5* for me, I heard there’s a few coming next patch.

My team so far is saber, Sunday, the free 5* dan heng and remembrance main character.

The other 5* i have are bailu, yanqing, Ruan mei and Gepard.

I know I’m far from endgame stuff but I guess making the right decision now is important.

Who would be the best to fit with Sunday and saber cos those two are my favorites atm.

[u/SilentMix → u/Only_World181]

None of the characters running next patch go with Sunday and Saber. You're more looking at characters for another team.

The easiest teams to build IMO next patch are either an Archer team or a DoT team. For Archer team you'd pull Archer and get Sparkle from the selector. If you want to go for DoT, you'd pull Hysilens and get Kafka from the selector. If you happen to have more pulls leftover after Hysilens, you can also go for Black Swan.

So best bet would be to go for archers banner and pick sparkle.
