Beginners Guide, Tips, Tricks, & More [From A Veteran Who Started Over] | Honkai Star Rail

Two Tips I left out

1. HOSTAGE YOUR FUEL!! Pretend it does not exist until you get to trailblaze power 60!! Then only use it when you establish who you want to hyper invest in.
2. Herta is the 8th Free Character you will acquire and i also believe she is one of the best early game progress units in the game who also holds their weight in endgame. She also gets free eidolons when you complete simulated universe.

What is the difference between free to play and others

I gacha used star rail free and tickets for 30 times but none get 5 ⭐ hero..... Very very 😢😢😢

I'm a genshin veteran like 1.0 player. And came back to HSR . 100% fontaine so I have a bit of free time.

Man I felt like I was a level 1 genshin player again. My characters does insanely low dmg. 😂 I even died at world 2 simulated universe(was that what's it called?)

Anyway, I'm having fun so far. A bit bitter that I missed Seele rerun and Jingliu.

Edit: Came back because saw mei-senpai in the tga trailer.

Coming in a bit late as a bored, caught-up Genshin player (and I DO mean caught up, my ENTIRE map is 100%'d; I tend to no-life games I enjoy) and this is very helpful advice since I'll be F2P! I've only been playing HSR for 8 days but I'm about to hit Trailblaze Lvl 39. I am slamming through the story because I noticed all the resources locked behind it, LOL, so it's nice to learn that was the right call after all!

I knooooowww you said don't even attempt Forgotten Hall until you have Lvl 70 characters, but uhh I got some bonkers pulls starting out and I've been able to clear up to 12/15 with 3 stars so far. That being said...my beginner warp 5* was Welt! I was so happy when I got him~ (My husband got Bronya AND a Tingyun, but he has no main DPS lol the poor man). I pulled on both Argenti & Silver Wolf re-run and blessedly won both my 50-50's. Argenti makes a great main DPS at least at my current level, and Silver Wolf is a straight up carry. I also ended up with a Bailu from free standard warps, so I ditched Natasha & built her. Between pulling for Argenti & Silver Wolf, I ended up with an E6 Lynx....so she is my other healer now lol. I was indeed blessed with Pela (E1) and she has been SUCH a carry. She was especially propping my team up before I got Silver Wolf. And Asta (E3), of course, is built, though I usually use her when I need more speed or just fire (I did get a Himeko as well on standard and built her for the Aesthetic, because she is an entire mood. I know she's bad but I don't care!!!! Haha)

I am definitely guilty of caring too much about relics too early, but tbh I think that's why my teams are kinda doing okay right now LOL. I will just chuck the old ones into the 5*'s once I get to 50 & can start getting good pieces. For now, I will focus on finishing the available story (idk how close I even am to finishing, but I read somewhere that the Xianzhou Luofu story "isn't complete yet", and I just beat the tree boss whose name I won't say for spoiler reasons. Not sure how much is left after that. I keep doing side missions to put it off because I think I'm getting close).

Wow, that was so many words, my ADHD really went off, huh? Anyway, all this to say, thank you for the advice! It is very very helpful!!

I sware to god I have no idea why everyone is recommending Pela. Supposably she shareds defense and makes fights easy but for some reasone on my 3 accounts 2 ftp and one ptw she does not seem to do much (then again she is not e4)

Hm

Well damn... I just hit the jackpot. Just got Bronya. New to this genre of games. I am so confused about everything. The currency, where to use it, what not to waste, navigating the menu to find what I need. I will say it is fun though, when Im not confused.

u forgot to mention to turn off that rancid song playing all the time in the Express 😂

I think for sure you can farm relics as far as TL 45, the things you'll have tp manage are your extra fuels.

Fkn game requires million gigs nothanks this dam phone not pcu😊

gotta love i got the 2 5 stars on my new account that he said arent worth it lol

why am i watching this as a 70 TL player?

could you make a video on what you do if we did give our characters the Oprah treatment? lol i like that analogy ... i got great characters but i maxed too many too quick and now i spend my days drip feeding them whatever i can.

One thing I regret is wasting my star rail passes, I was hoping to get seele and bronya , but instead I got some free players and I got two 4 star . The Gerald guy anc the fire witch that starts with a G

I got so lucky then. I got a 5 star Brunya as my first free 5 star from the Beginner's banner 😭

I have been a fan of your videos since genshin, and I have a huge crush on your physique and your reminders to touch grass. Much love

Here from genshen. I can understand the references when you make the comparisons.

Me watching this video as a since day 1 player to make sure I can give good advises to my newbie friends xD
Ty for the guide <3

Very comprehensive guide! Started a week ago and am very confused since this is a new game. Cleared most of my questions with this vid Thanks!

How to get more than 1 5 star? I already do 10 pull so many time, but still didn't got it

I need help I’m stuck on the equilibrium trial part 1 my party is level 30

its sad a grown man is playing a silly cartoon game

I'm a new player on PS5. I was wondering how I could obtain the characters whose banners I've missed? I know that banners eventually cycle back through. However, the game just dropped on my console, so it's not entirely fair that I can't even acquire one 5 star character that I truly want. I want the General with the Thunder God ability.

Honestly thinking of making another acc just for console😅 the game is so much fun. All the updates have been great i hope all the new players that join will enjoy the game. But this hands dowm best gatcha game i ever played

Started watching you for Wild Hunt, glad I get to join you for Star Rail Smack. the channel looks like its doing great!

You forgot Yukong is a free character

Appreciate the info! I've been playing for a while and wanted to make a second out and use it as a F2P only account. Thanks for the reminders when I start it again!

You forgot the NUMBER ONE RULE rule for NEWCOMERS. NEVER and I mean NEVER exchange you're Jade for ANYTHING other than the Golden tickets used for limited banners. That's probably by far the worst resource in the game to waste if you're F2P... 🤔👍

Im on ps5 and i have jing gepard pela and and lynx on my main team

First 5 star I got was Himeko from the free 50.
Then I got Bronya from standard.
Lost Jingliu 50/50 to Gepard
Qingque is already E6...
Been streaming this games story for a while and It's going pretty good.

Great Video!!!

can u do a jade farm guide because resources are scarce and we need em

For Serval Seriousness of Breakfast (forgotten hall stuff) is a good free option. She is erudition so the Nihility Herta LC will not work... She just has some nihility stuff in the kit so it is easy to confuse

Just started today and your guide will help a lot

People really underestimate how much Bailu brings to the table. Damage reduction and reactive healing are enough to sustain you in any content. With enough investment in HP and energy regen, Bailu easily solo sustains with no SP used (just use ult when its ready). Safety net of having revive is also nice (for example in swarm or unlucky MoC double hit on squishy support). Only downside is not having cleanse but all sustainers have some sort of drawback.

Id also recommend leveling one character at a time since you can focus on them for a few days and move on to the next once you hit lvl 70 and lvl 8 on traces. And max out their light cone

the slight grimace on your face when you mention clara. It's either you remembering topaz is coming or the spook

What a great tips and tricks video! For someone who is new to this kind of game, you pretty much answered all my questions. 👊

I'm definitely going to try this out! Glad I've got your vids to go back to

great content as always man

im a day 1 player. i still learned something today. wth

When he said "pela" I legit got a add pop up for SR with pela on it

im and old player coming back and this is so helpful!

and remember always convert your jades into standard pull since the pool is bigger you have the chance to get more characters by pulling into standard

Gatcha Smack spreading misinformation. Serval ≠ Nhility

listen up to some good advice ps5'ers

Hey new Honkai players :3 I wish you all a great time on this new adventure 🎉 May the odds be ever in your favor, and may you win the 50/50s that matter to you ~

burning a few trailblaze powder to get a good set bonus early on aint bad, takes a bit to get to lvl 50
