Himeko is a genius scientist in Honkai: Star Rail and the navigator for the Astral Express. Utilizing her fire-based damage, Himeko is able to scorch her way through any enemies that stand in her path. Players interested in adding Himeko to their team will not regret this choice and should turn their sights to either the Standard or Departure Warp to try and pick her up.

This article will cover everything you need to know about the best Himeko build in Honkai: Star Rail, including Eidolons, Light Cones, Relics, and more!

Best Himeko Build In Honkai: Star Rail

Himeko is an AOE damage dealer through and through, capable of dishing out massive amounts of fire damage via her basic attack, skill, and ultimate. Additionally, Himeko also has a DoT (Damage Over Time) ability that will deal residual damage over a certain number of turns. 

For these reasons, it is recommended to build Himeko with as much damage as possible, prioritizing her fire damage and ATK stat. Because Himeko can deal so much damage to broken enemies, it is also recommended to pair her with other fire damage dealers.
