Mastering The Herta in Honkai: Star Rail
The Herta, a highly anticipated 5-star character, finally arrives in Honkai: Star Rail. Unlike her 4-star puppet counterpart, The Herta boasts a unique playstyle centered around "Interpretation" stacks. These stacks, gained when allies attack, significantly amplify her damage. To maximize her potential, prioritize teams with frequent AoE attacks.
The Herta's signature ability, "Message From Beyond the Veil," grants allies 80% Crit DMG if another Erudition character is present, making her ideal for duo DPS compositions.
Optimal Premium Team Composition: The Herta + Jade + Robin + Lingsha
This team excels due to its synergy with The Herta's mechanics. Jade, as an Erudition character, provides significant buffs and frequent follow-up attacks, perfectly complementing The Herta's stacking. Lingsha offers crucial healing and AoE follow-up attacks, mitigating The Herta's HP drain (as Debt Collector). Robin provides crucial team-wide buffs to follow-up attacks and overall damage, enhancing turn efficiency.
- Team Roles: The Herta (Main/Sub DPS), Jade (Sub-DPS, Support), Robin (Support, Buffer), Lingsha (Sub-DPS, Healer, Debuffer)
Optimal F2P Team Composition: The Herta + Herta + Remembrance Trailblazer + Gallagher
This F2P-friendly team utilizes two Herta units for optimal synergy. Remembrance Trailblazer offers valuable True DMG and Crit DMG buffs. Gallagher provides consistent AoE support and healing. Serval can replace one Herta, and Pela or Tingyun can substitute for Trailblazer, depending on available characters.
- Team Roles: The Herta (Main/Sub DPS), Herta (Sub-DPS), Remembrance Trailblazer (Support, Sub-DPS, Buffer), Gallagher (Healer, Debuffer)
Remember to adjust your team composition based on your available characters and the specific challenges you face. Experimentation is key to unlocking The Herta's full potential!
