Honkai Star Rail beginner tips
At the start of an almost endless RPG like Honkai Star Rail, you need to take every advantage given to you, so make the most of free booster items to get ahead.
Once you've reaped the rewards, you then need to take the credit you have in the bank and spend it wisely. Investing early in the right characters can make your experience better for literally years to come, and the pages below help you to do just that!
If you're struggling with your current team, it might be that the characters just aren't at the top of the power curve, so be sure to check out the most over-powered combinations. But also, make sure that you're targeting an enemy's weak element to take them down easily!
Honkai Star Rail will have a constantly rotating carousel of content that's enough to make anyone dizzy. If you have already grabbed the best loot from the current batch in the store, sometimes it's better to hold back your currency for the next drop.
These pages will also help you to understand how the selection of characters, Light Cones, and other items changes from month-to-month.
