Honkai: Star Rail Team Guide for Herta

Mastering The Herta in Honkai: Star Rail

The Herta, a highly anticipated 5-star character, finally joins the Honkai: Star Rail roster. Unlike her 4-star puppet counterpart, The Herta boasts a unique playstyle centered around "Interpretation" stacks. These stacks, gained when allies attack, significantly boost her damage. To maximize her potential, team compositions prioritizing frequent AoE attacks are crucial.

Her bonus ability, "Message From Beyond the Veil," provides all allies with an 80% Crit DMG boost if another Erudition character is present. This makes her ideal for duo DPS team setups.

Optimal Premium Team Composition: The Herta + Jade + Robin + Lingsha

This team excels due to its synergy with The Herta's mechanics. Jade, as an ideal Erudition partner, frequently triggers follow-up attacks, perfectly complementing The Herta's stack generation. Lingsha provides crucial healing and AoE follow-up attacks, mitigating The Herta's HP drain as the Debt Collector. Robin's buffs to follow-up attacks and overall damage significantly enhance team performance.

• 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 both The Herta and her 4-star counterpart for optimal Interpretation stacking. Remembrance Trailblazer offers True DMG and Crit DMG buffs, while Gallagher provides consistent AoE support and healing. Alternatives include Serval (replacing 4-star Herta), Pela (replacing Trailblazer), or Tingyun (though less synergistic due to lacking AoE).

• Team Roles:
  • The Herta: Main/Sub DPS
  • Herta: Sub-DPS
  • Remembrance Trailblazer: Support, Sub-DPS, Buffer
  • Gallagher: Healer, Debuffer
