![Dan Heng in Honkai: Star Rail [best build guide]](https://wotpack.ru/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/1-35-800x450.jpg)
В HSREpic Dan Heng is a representative of the Hunt, whose skills are focused on dealing damage to single targets. In combat, he plays the role of a secondary DPS character, since due to the high health of bosses in the current reality, he has difficulty killing them. However, as a free hero, he is still good at clearing the starting content, for example, the initial stages of the Development campaign.
The uniqueness of the young man, in turn, lies in his skill and superpower. When using the first skill, there is a certain chance to slow down the enemy, while the ultimate skill deals more damage if the enemy is under the influence of "Slowed". Thus, it can be said that the abilities of the Astral Express crew member have high synergy between each other.

- with some probability in the “Departure Warp” (newbie banner);
- along with other epic characters in the Star Warp (permanent standard banner);
- with an increased probability in the “Event Warp: Character”, if indicated in the list of 4⭐ heroes that are available for receipt simultaneously with the “limited” legendary character;
- with some chance on par with other epic characters in Event Warp: Light Cone.
In addition, during certain periods the hero can be purchased for 140 Undying Embers in the section of the same name within Pom-Pom's Store.
How Dan Heng's skills work
The young man's abilities are aimed at destructing single targets. The young man is good at breaking through the shields of enemies vulnerable to the wind element, he also gains significant personal DPS boosts when attacking slowed enemies.
Active skills
«Splitting Spearhead»
Using the technique increases the character's attack power at the beginning of the next battle by 40%. for 3 turns.
«Cloudlancer Art: North Wind»
Deals wind damage to the selected enemy equal to 50-130% of ATK.
«Cloudlancer Art: Torrent»
Deals wind damage to the target enemy equal to 130-325% of attack power. On a critical hit, has a 100% base chance to reduce the target's speed by 12%. for 2 turns.
«Ethereal Dream»
Deals wind damage to the selected enemy equal to 240-480% of ATK. If the enemy is under the negative status of "Slowed", also increases the damage multiplier of the ultimate ability by 72-144%.
Passive Skills
«Superiority of Reach»
When Dan Heng is targeted by an ally's skill, his next attack's Wind Resistance Break is increased by 18-45%. This effect can only trigger again after 2 turns.
Leveling Order
Ultimate ≥ skill > talent > basic attack
Each ability is strong and necessary for the young man as the main DPS character. Even the basic attack "Cloudlancer Art: North Wind" should not be left without the player's attention, its damage will have a huge weight if the teams lacks skill points during the battle.
The hero's skills should be leveled side-by-side. The only thing worth focusing on is that the ultimate "Ethereal Dream" is improved in the first place due to the high damage rate. Then, the skill and talent are leveled up.
Traces
When learning the ttaces, there is an additional opportunity to increase the following characteristics at levels 1 and 80:
- Wind element bonus by 3.2%
- defense by 5%
- wind damage bonus by 4.8%
Totally, overall increase to the stats is:
| Wind type bonus | 22.4%. |
| ATK | 18%. |
| DEF | 12.5%. |

| Attack Power +4%. | Defense +7,5%. | Wind Damage Bonus +4,8% |
| Wind Damage Bonus +3,2%. | Attack Power +8%. | Attack Power +6% |
| Wind Damage Bonus +6,4%. |
Eidolons
Dan Heng's best eidolons are E1, E2 and E4.
- Advantage of the first eidolon: passive increase to such an important indicator as crit chance, is important both in the early and later stages of the game. In the first case, the reason lies in HP amounts of the bosses, the battles with which take a lot of time. In the second case, it's high Trailblazing level, which, one way or another, will affect the increased survivability of some ordinary and elite opponents.
- Advantage of the second eidolon: it is extremely difficult to realize the talent of the hero in question during the battle if there are no characters in the team who interact with Dan Heng directly through their abilities. However, if you have such allies, an additional activation of Superiority of Reach will be useful. Especially if the battle is against enemies vulnerable to wind damage.
- Advantage of the fourth eidolon: the more often Dan Heng takes action, the better - this is the main feature of Roaring Dragon and Soaring Sun.
| number | Name | Effects |
| 1 | The Higher You Fly, the Harder You Fall | When the enemy's current HP is greater than or equal to 50%, the chance of a crit. the character's hit is increased by 12%. |

| 5 | A Drop of Rain Feeds a Torrent | Increases the level of the ultimate ability by 2. The maximum level is 15. Increases the level of the talent by 2. The maximum level is 15. |
| 6 | The Troubled Soul Lies in Wait | The "Slowed" negative status caused by the skill reduces the enemy's speed by an additional 8%. |
How to Play Dan Heng in HSR

Dan Heng's combat tips and general rotation:
- Before the battle begins, use the "Splitting Spearhead" technique to increase the character's attack power for the next 3 turns.
- Examine the vulnerabilities of opponents in advance and add into the team the characters who can provide Dan Heng with a huge layer of action.
- Keep the Superiority of Reach talent active during combat by directing Abundance and Harmony allied abilities at the young man.
- Keep an eye on the number of available skill points: do not use the main abilities of the heroes thoughtlessly, because at the right time there may not be enough action points to implement the Dan Heng skill. Фssess the situation, replenishing the spent points through the use of basic attacks.
- Activate the Ethereal Dream superpower regardless of the orderof actions. Remember that using the ultimate ability is effective only in cases where the main enemy is under the influence of the Slowed negative effect.
Strengths and Weaknesses

Each character in the game has their own positive and negative sides: Dan Heng is no exception.
| Strengths | Weaknesses |
| The main "plus" is that Dan Heng is a free damage dealer. The only thing you need to do to get it is to go through the story prologue. | Needs a Path of Nihility character that applies the "Slowed" debuff to enemies to reach their full potential. In addition, it is important that the group contains support characters with directional skills (to implement the talent "Superiority of Reach"). |
| Able to compete with such legendary characters as Yanqing (Stellar Warp banner) and Seele (Banner "Event Warp: Character"), as he has high base damage. | If we talk about investments, both temporary and resource, he can become quite demanding character in the later stages of the game. A well-chosen light cone and well-leveled relics are important. |
| Splitting Spearhead increases personal attack power by 40% for 3 turns. | When faced with a boss that is resistant to the wind element, he will have to spend a lot of time killing them if there are no secondary DPS characters with other types of damage in the team. |
| Deals damage exclusively to single targets. To fight against a group of opponents, he needs heroes of the Path of Destruction or the Path of Erudition. |

![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 24-529 DEF 21-463 | Light Cone Skill, Chase, Increases critical chance by 8-16% and additionally increases crit. chance against opponents with HP less than or equal to 50% by 8-16%.

If there are 2 or fewer enemies on the battlefield, increases the owner's crit. chance by 12-24%. | A good 4-star alternative that opens up when fighting solo elites or bosses, increasing Dan Heng's crit. chance.

What relics and ornaments are needed
Cavern relics and planar ornaments, in turn, are necessary for increasing the most important combat stats. The selected sets should increase such indicators as:
- wind damage;
- crits and ATK.
Cavern relics
| Name | Effects | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 2 parts: Increases damage dealt to enemies with Debuffs by 12%. 4 parts: Increases crit. 4% chance. The owner's crit damage dealt to enemies with at least 2/3 debuffs increases by 8%/12% respectively. After the owner applies a Debuff to an enemy, the above effects are increased by 100% for 1 turn. | Two parts of the set provide a significant increase in damage and require at least one debuff on the enemy. A full set of artifacts allows not only to balance critical parameters, but also to pay more attention to other damaging characteristics in substats. In addition, thanks to the built-in decrease in speed from the skill, the hero can activate a double bonus of all parts of the set. |
![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 2 parts: Increases crit. 8% chance. 4 parts: Increases skill and super ability damage by 20%. After using an ultimate, the damage of the next skill increases by 25%. | A good replacement for the "Pioneer" due to the increase in skill damage and superpower, which are the key abilities of the character. Considering that Dan Heng is the main DPS and strives to use the skill every turn, he can fully realize the passive effect. An increase in crit. chance will not be superfluous, especially with a lack of this stat. |
![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 2 parts: Increases wind damage by 10%. 4 parts: After using an ultimate, advances action by 25%. | Situational, but a good set of relics, as it provides the character with everything he needs - increases wind damage and moves the action forward, allowing the hero to move more often. The effect of four parts compensates for small increases in damage with frequent moves, but with sufficient speed, it is worth choosing in favor of the previous options. |
Planar ornaments
| Name | Effects | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|
![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 2 parts: increases crit. 8% chance. If crit. the owner's chance is 70% (or higher), the damage of his basic attack and skill is increased by 20%. | Despite the fact that the character's ultimate deals the highest % of damage, the base hit and skill are prioritized due to the frequency of use. For this reason, the ornaments set in question outperforms any of the sets below. In addition, the set provides a nice percentage bonus to crit. hit, which allows you to focus on finding other characteristics when leveling artifacts. |
![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 2 parts: increases crit. owner's chance by 8%. If crit. the owner's chance is at least 50%, the damage of his superpower and bonus attack is increased by 15%. | An alternative to the above set, increasing the DPS from the ultimate, which is the main source of damage for the character. |
![]() ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | 2 parts: Increases the wearer's attack power by 12%. If the owner's speed is higher than or equal to 135/160, then the damage they deal increases by 12%/18%. | Requires a lot of speed, but the increase in attack power will be higher.

Conclusion

Dan Heng is a primary DPS character who follows the Path of the Hunt and attack enemies with wind type damage, effectively breaking wind vulnerabilities of opponents. Being a free hero, he copes well with the starting content, but subsequently loses relevance, since he cannot compete with legendary heroes. At the same time, the character is extremely demanding of relics and a light cone to clear most of the current endgame modes. If you neglect equipment, you will soon face a noticeable drop in damage.
