Yao Guang Team Comp In Honkai Star Rail

by

Yao Guang is a versatile character in Honkai: Star Rail, offering both support and secondary damage. She’s especially valuable in teams focused on triggering ‘Aha’ moments, making her a popular choice for many players. This guide will show you the best team compositions to maximize Yao Guang’s potential in Honkai: Star Rail.

Yao Guang Best Teams In Honkai Star Rail

Yao Guang generally performs best within teams focused on the Harmony role due to her kit. While some teams can benefit from her Talent, which provides a small damage boost to their attacks, here are the most effective team compositions for Yao Guang in Honkai: Star Rail.

  • Yao Guang Premium Team: Yao Guang + Sparxie + Sparkle + Huohuo
  • Yao Guang F2P Team: Yao Guang + Archer + Sparkle + Dan Heng PT

Yao Guang + Sparxie + Sparkle + Huohuo

This team in Honkai: Star Rail is built around the powerful combination of Yao Guang and Sparxie. Yao Guang’s abilities repeatedly trigger special moments for Sparxie, allowing her to unleash incredibly high damage. Yao Guang also significantly boosts the team’s overall power and stats. She’s essential for any team focused on this playstyle in Honkai: Star Rail. Sparxie acts as the main damage dealer, taking all the team’s buffs and turning them into massive attacks. This combination of Yao Guang, Sparxie, and Sparkle is redefining just how much damage a team can deal in the game.

Sparxie works well with various teammates in Honkai: Star Rail, but Sparkle helps her perform at her best. Without Sparkle, Sparxie needs a lot of Skill Points to maximize her damage, requiring careful team setup. Sparkle solves this by quickly restoring Skill Points and increasing the team’s overall capacity, letting Sparxie consistently deal damage with both her regular Skill and powerful Elation attack.

Consider swapping Sparkle for Cipher. Cipher significantly boosts her team’s damage output while recording it, and the recorded amount can become incredibly high thanks to capturing the bonus damage from both Yao Guang and Sparxie. This allows Cipher to use her Ultimate to quickly defeat bosses with a lot of health.

This team heavily depends on Yao Guang using her Ultimate to activate more Elation Skills, and Huohuo can help keep the team going by providing energy regeneration. Plus, Huohuo’s attack boost makes it simpler to optimize Sparxie’s performance, as players won’t need to focus as much on reaching a specific attack stat to get the most out of her abilities.

Yao Guang + Archer + Sparkle + Dan Heng PT

Yao Guang primarily supports characters who focus on Elation damage in Honkai: Star Rail. While her abilities seem like they could help other damage dealers, she doesn’t provide enough support to compete with dedicated support characters who excel at boosting those units. Her main contributions come from her build and skill enhancements, such as the 20% Type RES PEN she provides with her Ultimate.

While characters who aren’t focused on Elation will benefit from Yao Guang’s damage scaling with her own Elation damage, they don’t trigger it often enough to build a full team around. Yao Guang’s ability works best with characters who frequently use their Skills to deal damage, as each Skill use doubles the chance of triggering her Elation damage. This makes her a bit more effective with non-Elation teams that can maximize Skill usage.

This ability is only helpful for characters who consistently use Skill Points while attacking. Characters like Sparxie and Imbibitor Lunae won’t get any value from it.

Consider Yao Guang’s damage: she might deal 20,000 to 30,000 damage with each attack. If paired with a character who only attacks once using their Skill, that character will receive an additional 40,000 to 60,000 damage. Characters who primarily use Basic Attacks will only get an extra 20,000 to 30,000 damage. However, a character like Archer, who attacks multiple times (four or five), can accumulate 200,000 to 300,000 extra damage from Yao Guang’s attacks.

This strategy isn’t limited to just one character; it works well with anyone who attacks often. Characters who deal damage through follow-up attacks, like Yunli with their counters, can also benefit from Yao Guang’s damage boost. However, generally, it’s still more effective to pair Yunli with other support characters. The additional damage from Yao Guang isn’t significant enough to match the potential damage output Yunli can achieve with a well-rounded support team.

Archer relies on teammates like Sparkle to recharge the team’s energy, allowing him to continuously use his powerful skills. Also, Dan Heng PT is incredibly efficient, capable of finishing battles without using any of his own energy.
