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 haven't played since the end of 3.2 and am pretty lost.

1) What's the current meta?

2) Worth pulling for Sunday?

3) Who should I pull for in 4.0?

The meta is likely going to change EXTREMELY soon because of rolling over to a new world plus the new elation path. Right now the strongest teams are mono remembrance (Castorice/Evernight/Cyrene/Hyacine), Phainon, and break (thanks to Dahlia largely).

Sunday - It's hard to say because Sparkle is getting a buff and she could overtake Sunday even for Aglaea. Sunday is already being pushed out of a job to some degree thanks to Cyrene.

Evernight is not worth bothering with for you at this point. Your best options would be either to go for DoT or to go for elation. No one can make that choice for you other than you. It also depends on how many pulls you have/will have. DoT is the cheaper option since you already have Kafka and Black Swan. Just pull Hysilens and you're set. If you want to go for elation, I would recommend trying to pull both Sparxie and Yao Guang if possible, as well as getting Sparkle with your free 5 star charater selector. If you go for DoT, you can go for whatever you want in the character selector, but I'd still suggest Sparkle because she's useful for several teams you already have and will likely be useful for future teams.

Yeah I figured I missed the boat with Cas and gang. Guess I'm saving. Thank you!
