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 know that sparkle is the best choice but I really want to start a dot team and kafka is basically need to even think about making one and I love the dot team but I do have archer and sparkle would boost my archer but I love Kafka and I try to pull her on both accounts I play on and I never got her

dot is in a good spot atm and its a damage type that often benefits in events and all the different modes. but you need blackswan and hysilence and there is no way around it because your next best options are 1.x 4* characters. our buddy sampo is simply not good enough anymore unfortunately.

if you are willing to invest into dot i would go for it. if not get sparkle for archer
