Greetings, Trailblazers!

In the second half of the version 3.4 banner in Honkai: Star Rail, our Stellaron Hunter, the disci

ple of the Cloud Knight Marshal of the Xianzhou, Blade—once famous for "sacrificing HP for b

ursts"—is making a return. With version updates, Blade's output model once felt lackluster, but

this rerun comes with optimizations. Is the enhanced Blade worth pulling? Let's dive in with t

he editor to find out!

| Blade Buff

Modification to Multiplier Model:

The original "ATK + HP hybrid multipliers" have been adjusted to pure HP multipliers, fully rei

nforcing the core logic of "stacking HP = increasing damage."

Mechanic Adjustments:

Energy recovery efficiency improved: The additional attack triggered by talents now restores a

n extra 15 Energy, making the Ultimate skill rotation smoother.

Eidolon Changes:

Eidolon 1:

Original:

The damage of Ultimate to the designated enemy is additionally increased by 150% of Blade's t

otal HP lost in the battle.The maximum total HP lost in the battle is capped at 90% of Blade's H

P limit, and it resets after casting Ultimate.

Now:

The damage of Enhanced Basic Attack and Ultimate to the designated enemy is additionally inc

reased by 150% of the total HP lost counted for Ultimate.

Other Eidolons remain unchanged.

Light Cone Recommendations:

Best Choice:

The Unreachable Side

(Signature Light Cone, increases HP limit + CRIT Rate, perfectly fits the mechanism)

Alternative Choice:

Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path

(provides high HP bonus and damage boost, highly adaptable)

4-Star Options:

Ninja Record: Sound Hunt

(increases HP limit + CRIT DMG, cost-effective for F2P players)

A Secret Vow

(directly boosts damage)

Relic Recommendations:

Outer Set:

Longevous Disciple 4

2P Increases Max HP by 12%.

4P When the wearer is hit or has their HP consumed by an ally or themselves, their CRIT Rate in

creases by 8% for 2 turn(s) and up to 2 stacks.

(Blade's exclusive set, increases HP limit and CRIT Rate, the best )

Inner Set:

Bone Collection's Serene Demesne 2

2P Increases the wearer's Max HP by 12%. When the wearer's Max HP is 5000 or higher, increas

es the wearer's and their memosprite's CRIT DMG by 28%.

(first choice for HP-based DPS)

Clothing Main Stat: CRIT Rate = CRIT DMG ＞ HP Percentage

Shoes Main Stat: HP Percentage = Speed

Planar Sphere Main Stat: HP Percentage = Wind DMG Boost

Link Rope Main Stat: HP Percentage

Sub-Stats for Inner/Outer Relics: CRIT DMG = CRIT Rate ＞ HP Percentage ＞ Speed ＞ Flat HP

| Team Recommendations

Best Team:

Blade + Sunday + Tribble + Hyacine (preferable with signature light cone)

Tips:

Sunday can be replaced with Memory Preservation main DPS or E6 Bronya;

Tingyun can be replaced with other universal buffers like Silver Wolf, Ruan Mei, Seele, Pela, etc.;

Hyacine can be replaced with HuoHuo, Lingsha, or other healers.

Dual DPS Team:

Blade + Castorice + Tribbie + Hyacine (preferable with signature light cone)

Through the team-wide HP loss from Castorice's kit, it stacks energy for Blade's additional att

acks; conversely, Blade's self-inflicted HP loss also charges Castorice's Ultimate.

| Summary

After this enhancement, Blade's damage ceiling has increased by approximately 25%, and his su

rvival pressure has significantly decreased. His Ultimate rotation is smoother, transforming from

a "high-risk burst-type" to a "sustained output-type" Destruction DPS. However, compared to n

ew Destruction DPS in the Onfaros version, such as Venti, Bai'e, and Saber, there is still a certain

gap.

Editor's Recommendations:

Trailblazers with Eidolon 1-5 can pull for more Eidolons to increase the ceiling (Eidolon 6 provid

es a particularly noticeable boost);

It is not recommended for players starting from scratch to pull;

True fans need not hesitate—this enhancement makes Blade's feel and strength viable, worth

collecting.

Tip: Since Blade entered the Standard Banner in version 3.3, the probability of pulling Blade has increased from 50% to 62.5%. Interested Trailblazers shouldn't miss this chance!!
