Best Feixiao build in Honkai: Star Rail

If you’re planning to pull Feixiao in Honkai: Star Rail, you need to understand the best way to build her up to get the most impact. For all your build crafting needs, here’s a nifty guide on Feixiao, to help you get your feet on the ground.

Strongest Feixiao Build in Honkai: Star Rail

Feixiao is a Wind Hunt character that focuses on delivering easy-to-access follow-up attacks to dish out extremely potent single-target damage. Unlike most follow-up attackers, Feixiao’s are super easy to activate—only requiring a teammate to attack an enemy target, and that’s it. This means that Feixiao attacks very often without any sort of follow-up restrictions, making her highly versatile. Feixiao’s versatility translates into her being able to be inserted into practically any team composition and find some level of success.

Feixiao does not require too much high-level planning to get rolling because most of her kit is straightforward and her team restrictions are low. However, one of her unique aspects you need to be aware of is how her Ultimate ability works. Like Acheron, Feixiao’s Ultimate does not work off an energy threshold. Instead, she requires stacks of her Talent, Thunderhunt, to build up to a minimum of six. This is done simply by having her teammates attack enemies.𒁃 Every two launched attac﷽ks count toward this counter, which is important to consider later for team composition.

At six stacks, Feixiao can activate her Ultimate at will to dish out some solid damage that ignores Elemental Weakness while active. Her Talent caps out at twelve, however, which greatly improves her Ultimate’s damage if you wait to use it. Still, being able to activate it early provides you with a new tactical option, which can make or break an encounter. Beyond this, she is a tried and true Main DPS that wants ATK% and CRIT stats to dish out her damage.

Best Relics for Feixiao

A substantial portion of Feixiao’s damage comes from her launching her unconditional follow-up attacks often, so you want to use Relics that focus on improving them. With this in mind, her best Relic set is The Wind-Soaring Valorous, as it provides Feixiao with a nice boost to ATK% and CRIT Rate. Most important though is the 36% damage increase to her Ultimate, something she should be using𒐪 often.

A strong alternative set you can use is The Ashblazing Grand Duke as it greatly⭕ boosts the power of her follow-up attacks, the other thing she should be doing quite often.

For Feixiao’s Sphere and Rope set, you want to use Duran, Dynasty of Running Wolves, as it directly synergizes with her core gameplay loop of having her allies use follow-up attacks to build stacks for her Talent. The set gives a stacking dmg boost (5%) to Feixiao’s follow-ups every time a teammate launches a follow-up attack, up to five times. At five stacks, Feixiao additionally gains 25% CRIT DMG. Quite strong.

Best Team Comp for Feixiao

While Feixiao doesn’t require any specific characters to function well, as a follow-up attacker, she gains considerable power from teams that focus on empowering them at all times. With this in mind, Topaz and Robin are her best teammates. March 7th (Hunt) is also 𒀰a strong alternative supporter for Feixiao.

Topaz is the premium follow-up attack buffer and she is especially potent with Feixiao thanks to her ability to buff follow-up attacks against single targets. Topaz synergizes with Feixiao incre🍰dibly well due to this, along with her high attack frequency, giving Feixiao a constant source of stacks for her Ultimate.

Robin is a standout follow-up attack buffer, designed specifically to enhance the performance of characters who rely on frequent attacks. Her Ultimate thrives on the team’s ability to unleash multiple attacks within its active window, significantly boosting overall damage. When paired with characters like Topaz and Feixiao, who constantly trigger each other’s follow-up attacks, Robin’s Ultimate can deliver devastating blows repeatedly, maximizing the team’s offensive potential.

March 7th (Hunt) is a strong alternative to Topaz for pairing with Feixiao, offering a significant speed boost and extra attacks that help Feixiao build stacks more quickly. Similar to Topaz, both characters can trigger each other’s follow-up attacks, leading to multiple strikes per turn. Furthermore, when Feixiao becomes March 7th’s Shifu, she gains access to Wind and Imaginary elements, allowing her to cover a rarer set of weaknesses and enhance the team’s versatility.

Should you get Feixiao’s Lightcone in Honkai: Star Rail?

Feixiao’s Lightcone, I Venture Forth to Hunt, is undoubtedly her best option, and you should consider pulling for it if you’re planning on getting her. It gives her an absurd amount of additional CRIT Rate while allowing her to ignore a considerable amount of her target’s defense if she landed follow-up attacks against them. It is a large damage increase for her that you should consider if you’re pulling Feixiao.

However, if you’re not interested in her Lightcone, she does have one other notable option with Baptism of Pure Thought–Dr. Ratio’s signature Lightcone. It gives Feixiao a general damage buff and allows her follow-up attacks to ignore the defense of her enemies (smaller than her signature) every time she uses her Ultimate. This lasts for two turns, but since Feixiao will be triggering her Ultimate and follow-up attacks pretty much all the time, this buff is permanent, making the Lightcone a very strong alternative.

Best Eidolons for Feixiao in Honkai: Star Rail

Like most limited five-star characters, Feixiao is a strong character right out of the gate at E0. She really does not need Eidolons to crush all of the content the game has to offer. However, if you’re still interested in getting some of her Eidolons, here’s an overview of each one for your information.

• Skyward I Quell (E1) – Every time Feixiao launches Boltsunder Blitz or Waraxe Skyward, the damage of her Ultimate is boosted by 10% of the damage. This stacks up to five times. As you may suspect, this is an incredibly powerful Eidolon with a highly unique scaling factor not seen in most others at E1. Worth it if you’re investing in Feixiao.
• Moonward I Wish (E2) – With this Eidolon, Feixiao will gain stacks of her follow-up counter significantly faster if her allies also attack with follow-up attacks. Most of Feixiao’s damage comes from her Ultimate, so this Eidolon allows her to reach her maximum potential much more quickly than normal. Good Eidolon. Makes her flow much better.
• Starward I Bode (E3) – Provides a hefty boost to her Ultimate damage, which is always nice but not worth investing in unless you’re going beyond.
• Stomward I Hear (E4) – Doubles Feixiao’s Toughness damage when she is utilizing a follow-up attack. Also, provides her with a large bonus to her Speed, which is always strong on Hunt characters. This Eidolon is quite powerful, but not on the same level as her E1 or E2.
• Heavenward I Leap (E5) – Boosts the potency of Feixiao’s Skill and Talent. While the Skill boost is not important, the damage boost to her Talent affects her follow-up attacks, which leads to a nice increase in her overall damage. Still, not worth getting unless you planning to go to her E6.
• Homeward I Near (E6) – This Eidolon is monstrous. Firstly, it turns Feixiao’s follow-up DMG into Ultimate DMG, which means her follow-ups now gain full benefits from Ultimate DMG buffs of all types. On top of this, she gains 20% All-type Resistance Penetration, which means she will always deal more damage to all enemy types, at all times. If this wasn’t enough, Feixiao’s follow-up attacks additionally gain a staggering DMG multiplier increase of 140%, which is stupidly high. Absurd.
