Relics Sets And Important Mechanics

Before we go on the guide regarding the best uses of Relics in Honkai Star Rail, we have to understand the game mechanics regarding the in-game Relics , Relic Sets, Main Stats, Sub Stats and Relics Set Effects. These mechanics will have important details to consider when building a relic set for different characters.

Relic Set Effects

One of the most important details regarding the Relics system in Honkai Star Rail is that every single Relic Sets have a different effects when a certain amount of pieces are equipped to the same characters, with the 2 pieces effects enhancing a specific stats or damage types and the 4 pieces set effect further grants characters a brand new passive to go along with the Relics’ effects or simply grants the characters extremely powerful benefits while they are on the battlefield.

These effects are extremely powerful and need to be taken into consideration when building certain characters. However, it is important to note that players should consider the different effects of Relic sets separately from each other, meaning that players should know that some characters are more powerful when they equip 2 different relic sets with 2 different Relic Set Effects rather than sticking to a full 4 pieces Relic Set Effects of 1 Relic Set. 

Main Stats and Sub Stats

Each Relic piece will have a different stats assigned to them when the player obtained them from their sources, and these stats will determine the usability of each piece of relics. 

For 4 piece set Relics, players will always be guaranteed the Flat Attack and Flat HP stats for the headgear and the ring, while the armor and boots will have a certain selection of main stats that will be randomized when obtained.

 

For 2 piece set Relics, the orb will randomize between almost all of the stats from the game in addition to specific elemental damage boost effects, while the rope will have an additional break effect % and energy recharge % added into the randomization.
