Feixiao Boss Guide & Team Comp In HSR - Honkai: Star Rail

As someone who’s been through more than a few tough battles in Honkai: Star Rail, let me tell you, the Shadow of Feixiao is no walk in the park. But fear not, for I have a battle-hardened team that can take her down!


In Honkai: Star Rail, it may appear as if players are battling General Feixiao. However, they’re actually confronting a manifestation known as the Shadow of Feixiao, which arises from Hoolay using the Crimson Moon. Despite being a mere reflection, this opponent is formidable and should not be underestimated, particularly when the Shadow of Feixiao calls forth the Ecliptic Inner Beast, making it much harder to defeat.

In version 2.5, when the Feixiao boss battle was introduced, the game strategy (meta) primarily revolved around Weakness Break. Consequently, it’s not surprising that defeating this Echo of War boss involves draining the adversary’s Durability. Here are some tips on how to conquer Feixiao in HSR, along with insights into the battle.

How To Beat Shadow of Feixiao In HSR – Honkai: Star Rail

Cracking Shadow of Feixiao’s defense in HSR is akin to managing the Doomsday Beast in Honkai: Star Rail. In Phase 1, it’s straightforward since she fights alone and players merely need to drain her health. However, things get challenging in Phases 2 onwards as she summons the Ecliptic Inner Beast.

Phase 2

In Phase 2, Feixiao teams up with the Ecliptic Inner Beast, which is divided into three distinct segments, each with unique attacks and individual turns. These segments are as follows:

  • Nebula Devourer (head)
  • Planeshred Claws (claw)
  • Worldpurge Tail (tail)

In these regions, standard attacks won’t inflict fatal harm, but when Feixiao employs “Heaven’s Binds,” she amplifies the power of two of her body parts. These enhanced areas deal increased damage. Additionally, resonating with her head and tail increases the chance to apply both the “Outrage” and “Weaken” debuffs. “Heaven’s Binds” occurs when Feixiao plunges her sword into the ground, causing a red prompt to appear on the screen.

Planeshred Claws (claw)No debuffIncreases Feixiao’s DMG.
Worldpurge Tail (tail)WeakenAffected ally deals reduced DMG.

To eliminate the resonance impact, players need to reduce the Toughness of the affected body part. Here are three methods to identify the boosted body part:

  • The body part has a flaming blue aura around it.
  • The part has the Resonate buff on the effects detail screen.
  • The part is highlighted in red on the action order.

It would be more beneficial for players to focus on reducing the Toughness specifically on the upgraded body components, in order to suppress the resonance effect.

Phase 3

In Phase 3, a dangerous new ability called “Wreathed in Storm” is introduced. When Feixiao uses this skill, she becomes invulnerable to your attacks and restores her Beast’s Toughness to various parts of her body. The following turn, Feixiao’s Shadow will execute “Sweep the Heavens, Swallow the Earth”, dealing increased damage based on the number of body parts that haven’t been weakened yet. Any non-weakened part will also gain an enhancement for its subsequent move after this.

It’s essential to make sure that each of her body parts is properly weakened before Feixiao can resume her actions, as failing to do so might make it challenging for you to withstand her powerful attack.
