The judge-in-training of the Ten-Lords Commission is here, and despite her appearance, she’s great for all teams. With Huohuo in Honkai: Star Rail, people are always looking for ways to build her to make her a great healer for any team. With healing capabilities and support options, we consider this ghost-catcher a fantastic addition. So, if you’re one of the lucky few to have her, it is essential to know what the best relics, Light Cones, and team comps are for this charming lass.
The Best Healer Build for Huohuo in Honkai: Star Rail
(Updated on August 13, 2024 – updated links and format)
Huohuo is a 5-star character who wields the Wind element and hails from the Path of Abundance. At first glance, she might seem like she doesn’t pack a punch or bring anything noticeable to a team, but she’s fantastic. Her skills buff party members, regenerate energy, and heal, making her a must for all compositions. To make the most out of her abilities, we’ll nudge you into making the best build for her.
Light Cones
Regarding the best Light Cones for Huohuo, there are many you can use for her for a good build in Honkai: Star Rail. While DPS characters need specific Light Cones, healers are a bit more forgiving. Yet, that doesn’t mean you’ll equip her with the first 3-star Light Cone you have. There are a few ones that’ll do wonder, such as the following:
- Night of Fright (Best)
- Increases the wearer’s Energy Regeneration Rate by 12%. When any ally uses their Ultimate, the wearer restores HP for the ally currently with the lowest HP percentage by an amount equal to 10% of the healed ally’s Max HP. When the wearer provides healing for an ally, it increases the healed ally’s ATK by 2.4%.
- Hey, Over Here
- Increases the wearer’s Max HP by 8%. When the wearer uses Skill, it increases Outgoing Healing by 16%, lasting two turns.
- Post-Op Conversation
- Increases the Energy Regeneration Rate of its wearer by 8% and increases Outgoing Healing when they use their Ultimate by 12%.
Relic Sets
For Relic Sets, Huohuo is another case where two pieces of different sets work best. Since most of her skills scale with her HP percentage, it is better to have a set that increases this stat while also providing good Outgoing Healing power. For that, we recommend the following:
- Passerby of Wandering Cloud (2 Pieces)
- 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Outgoing Healing by 10%.
- Longevous Disciple (2 Pieces)
- 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Max HP by 12%.
- Ornament Set: Broken Keel (2 Pieces)
- Increases the wearer’s Effect RES by 10%. When the wearer’s Effect RES is at 30% or higher, all allies’ CRIT DMG increases by 10%.
The important thing about this Huohuo build in Honkai: Star Rail is to focus on Outgoing Healing, HP, and Effect Resistance. The latter is important to give other allies more Critical Damage.
Best Team Comp
Huohuo does wonders on any team, as she can increase the energy of all members, allowing them to use their ultimate constantly. However, it is better to pair her up with buffers and a good DPS to raze the battlefield. Sadly, you’ll need some premium characters to make her shine. Here are the ones we recommend:
- Premium Team #1
- DPS: Jingliu
- Support: Bronya
- Second Support: Silver Wolf
- Healer: Huohuo
- Premium Team #2
- DPS: Imbibitor Lunae
- Support: Bronya
- Second Support: Tingyun/Yukong
- Healer: Huohuo
While these are the best compositions, you can mix and match them as you see fit. While most of the characters are 5-star, you can also switch your DPS for Sushang or Dan Heng if you don’t have other good ones. It is important to have another buffer, such as Tingyun, though, to increase your party’s damage and let you end all fights quickly.
