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 gameplay style centered around "Interpretation" stacks. These stacks, gained when allies attack, significantly boost her damage. This guide explores optimal team compositions to maximize her potential.
Key to The Herta's Success: Stacking Interpretation
The Herta's effectiveness hinges on rapidly accumulating Interpretation stacks. Team compositions should prioritize allies with frequent AoE attacks, especially follow-up attacks, for efficient stack generation.
Herta's Signature Ability: Message From Beyond the Veil
This ability grants all allies an 80% Crit DMG boost if another Erudition character is present. This makes duo DPS compositions, pairing The Herta with another Erudition character, incredibly powerful.
Premium Team Composition: The Herta + Jade + Robin + Lingsha
This lineup is arguably The Herta's strongest. Jade, as an Erudition character, synergizes perfectly, providing frequent follow-up attacks that fuel Interpretation stacks. Lingsha offers crucial AoE healing and follow-up attacks, mitigating The Herta's HP drain as the Debt Collector. Robin excels as a buffer, enhancing follow-up attacks and overall damage.
- Team Roles: The Herta (Main/Sub DPS), Jade (Sub-DPS/Support), Robin (Support/Buffer), Lingsha (Sub-DPS/Healer/Debuffer)
F2P Team Composition: The Herta + Herta + Remembrance Trailblazer + Gallagher
This budget-friendly team utilizes two Herta units for maximum synergy. Remembrance Trailblazer provides valuable True DMG and Crit DMG buffs. Gallagher offers consistent AoE healing and utility. Serval can replace one Herta, and Pela or Tingyun are viable alternatives for the Trailblazer slot, though less synergistic.
- Team Roles: The Herta (Main/Sub DPS), Herta (Sub-DPS), Remembrance Trailblazer (Support/Sub-DPS/Buffer), Gallagher (Healer/Debuffer)
