Xueyi in Honkai Star Rail: Best Build and Team Guide

Xueyi in HSR is a judge of the Ten-Lords Commission from Luofu Xianzhou, who is an extremely versatile DPS-oriented character. The distinctive feature is embedded in the heroine's mechanics, which allow her to try on different builds - through acceleration of critical indicators, or through increasing the effectiveness of break. In the latter case, the rotation is mainly based on the constant activation of a ultimate that ignores the types of vulnerabilities of enemy targets and quickly depletes enemies' toughness bars.

Thus, the girl is able to take one of two possible positions in the team - the main damage dealer, whose main abilities are her skill and ultimate, or a secondary DPS support, playing off the ultimate and bonus attacks tied to Karma charges.

Hero's story

Xueyi is one of the judges of the Ten-Lord Commission of Luofu Xianzhou, responsible for finding criminals. Many years after her death, she came back to life, haunting a puppet body to fulfill her mission. Tireless and emotionless, with a chain and Marasunder Awl in hand, she pursues criminals, and every enemy she chains allows her to gain half a day of life.

As a human, she was influenced by Mara and did many terrible things. However, the Commission allowed her to atone for her sins by hiring her as a worker. This is how she received a new body, as the girl's true flesh had long since turned to dust. Has a clear bond with her younger sister Hanya, which now also carries out karmic judgment.

The sisters' most vivid memories are shown in the light cones "Under the Blue Sky" and "Return to Darkness." The first weapon depicts their childhood, when "they still had smiles on their faces." The second is the moment the real Xueyi died and the most pivotal moment in Hanya's life.

How to Get the Character

As an Epic rarity character, Xueyi can be dropped in any Warp, or purchased for 140 Undying Embers in the corresponding section of Pom-Pom's store.

If you really like the heroine and want to get her for personal use as soon as possible, wait for her to appear in the list of 4⭐ units in a limited banner related to one of the legendary event heroes.

To avoid missing Xueyi's rerun, follow our banner schedule.

Features

Health, attack power and defense are basic stats that increase during the leveling process. The table shows the exact values ​​of these parameters:

Speedand Taunt remain the same regardless of level.

How Xueyi's skills work

As a follower of the Path of Destruction, the Ten-Lord Commission Judge's skills focus on single and multiple target destruction. She specializes in reducing enemy toughness to increase damage output. In addition, the puppet girl can perform bonus attacks after repeatedly depleting the stamina of her targets.

Active skills

Passive Skills

Leveling Order

Skill ≥ Talent ≥ Superpower > Basic Attack

All abilities of Hanya's elder sister, except for basic attack, are recommended to be leveled evenly, at least to 8. If the required amount of resources is not available, you can adhere to the following order:

1. Skill - provides up to 4 levels of Karma, is used quite often (if the heroine is a main DD, then almost every turn), spreads to several opponents. Up to E2 is more relevant than talent.
2. Talent – when the enemy’s toughness decreases, it gives levels of Karma status, which allows you to carry out a bonus attack. Becomes one of the main sources of DPS after receiving the last Eidolon.
3. Ultimate - has one of the highest multipliers among the heroine's skills and deals a large amount of damage. Does not depend on vulnerabilities, but focuses on only one enemy target.
4. Basic attack – Rarely used, as it only gives 1 level of Karma and has the lowest multiplier. Mainly used to restore action points.

Traces

General increase in characteristics:

• Break effect - + 29.3 %
• HP - + 18 %
• Quantum damage - + 8 %

Eidolons

All consts:

Xueya's best eidolons are:

• E2 - Allows you to drain stamina with a bonus hit, regardless of what element they are weak to, and also provides survivability through healing. This is a strong eidolon that increases the effectiveness and damage of the talent.
• E4 - another enhancement that reduces the requirement for the required break effect after using the ultimate. The Eidolon will increase the character's overall DPS, allowing you to focus on other stats.
• E6 - Speeds up the activation of the talent due to the fact that the bonus attack is triggered upon reaching 6 levels of Karma (previously 8). This allows you to not only gain stacks faster, but also use the bonus attack much more often.

How to Play Xueyi in HSR

The principle of playing the judge of the Ten-Lord Commission is to consistently use DPS skills and reduce the toughness of victims, which allows you to gain levels Karma status, which activates a bonus attack on random targets. In order for this blow to work, you need to get the maximum 8 levels (on the last eidolon - 6):

• Basic attack - 1 level.
• Skill – 4 levels if there are 3 or more monsters; 3 levels if there are 2; 2 levels if there is only 1 enemy.
• Superpower - 4 levels.

Allies also help to gain stacks. In this case, only 1 level is always given, so it does not matter how effectively they break - the main thing is to do it more often. At the same time, the decrease in toughness also affects the ult. In particular, the more toughness is removed, the more damage the ult deals, which also ignores any type of vulnerability.

The ultimate goal is not only to gain Karma levels to perform a bonus hit, but also to break through weakness with the ult or other skills. Thanks to the "Clairvoyant Loom" trace, damage increases by 100% of break effect. Therefore, it is beneficial for the character to play from break, since this has a positive effect on both the overall DPS and the damage from Quantum Break.

Xueyi's rotation is as follows:

1. Use the techniques of characters of the Paths of Harmony, Abundance, Preservation or Nihility to ensure that all allies are strengthened and protected at the beginning of the battle. If the selected targets have a weakness to the quantum element, use the technique and enter the battle to immediately gain 2 levels of Karma.
2. If the heroine is a main DD, use the skill to get an additional 2 or 4 stacks. If she is a sub DD, you can also use this skill or basic attack depending on the situation. In the case of basic attack, you will get 1 level.
3. When the rest of the team enters the battlefield, always target those who are weak to their element if possible. This is necessary to obtain Status Level 1.
4. Continue using the skill or basic attack until you have enough energy or Karma levels. Under certain circumstances, a bonus attack may trigger before the ult, which will also allow you to fill the energy bar faster.
5. Once the ultimate is charged, use it on the target whose stamina is drained the most to deal more damage and gain 4 levels. Provided there are no such victims, you can use the ultimate on any target.
6. Remember that the ultimate works against any vulnerability, so try to activate it on an enemy without quantum resistance. While the skill and basic attack, on the contrary, concentrate only on monsters with a weakness to quantum. This will allow you to get the maximum levels.

Even if Karma levels go into excess, they do not disappear, but are postponed for the next time (up to 6 stacks). However, this option only appears when you open the third trace Perspicacious Mainframe.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Let's take a closer look at the strengths and weaknesses of the puppet girl:

Best Xueyi Builds in Honkai: Star Rail

The Judge of the Ten-Lord Commission specializes in dealing damage through Quantum Break, skills, and Bonus Strike. She can act as a primary or secondary DPS depending on her preferred playstyle: as a main DPS, she relies on her own damage and buffs from her allies, as a sub DPS, she helps other DPS players.

The best Xueyi build in HSR should be based on the following characteristics:

• Speed. One of the most important stats not only for fulfilling the passive condition for the Talia planar ornaments, but also for a sufficient number of turns. It is important to perform actions as often as possible to break through the weakness of a potential victim.
• Break effect. A Link Rope with this property is equivalent to two Planar Spheres for quantum damage due to the bonus from the "Clairvoyant Loom" trace. Additionally, Quantum is one of the strongest vulnerability break effects and will increase DPS in any case.
• ATK. Usually, damage dealers have a harder time finding a bonus to increase damage and therefore it is more significant, while ATK is in abundance. In the case of the puppet girl, on the contrary, percentage damage is presented in large quantities, but ATK is quite small.
• crit dmg/crit rate. Although the heroine deals a lot of damage with break, as in the case of ATK, classic DPS stats remain an important source of improving damage. Hanya's older sister in any case crushes enemies not only with break, but also with simple blows.

Thus, to balance the stats, it is optimal to use an ATK sphere, and a break rope. Another option is the ATK body. However, this is relevant only if the crits have reached optimal values, and the relic with ATK is more profitable in terms of stats.

Recommended Stats

Priority main stats in relics:

Auxiliary (lower) characteristics:

• Break effect.
• crit dmg or crit rate
• ATK.
• Speed.
• HP, defense, effect resistance – optional.

Optimal final stat values:

• ATK: 2+.
• Speed: 134+ or from 145+, if the Talia planar ornaments are equipped.
• Break effect: 100-150% and more.
• HP: 3+.
• DEF: 800-900+.
• Energy recharge: 100% and more
• Crit. damage/crit. chance: 60% critical hit chance accounts for 120% critical damage. In the main DD position, crits are worth paying more attention to, since in this case, the puppet girl is the main DPS team in the team.

Light Cone Rating

The weapon has to belong to the Path of Destruction and increase the following parameters: ATK, crit dmg and crit rate, damage. The most suitable light cones are listed in the table.

Name	Description	Recommendation
On the Fall of an Aeon (F2P) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 24-529 DEF 18-396	When the wielder attacks, the weapon increases its attack power by 8-16% in this fight, stacks up 4 once. When breaking through an enemy's vulnerability, damage is increased by 12-24% on 2 turns.	The best light cone for the puppet girl, no matter what role she plays. Can be obtained and awakened for free, easy to activate the passive effect even if the monsters do not have quantum vulnerability (ult and E2), increases ATK, which helps balance the characteristics.
The Moles Welcome You  ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 21-476 DEF 12-264	Using a basic attack, skill, or ult grants one level of Mischief. Each level increases attack power by 12-24%.	Excellent budget weapon on ATK with a simple condition. To get the maximum possible bonus, you need to use basic attack, skill or ultimate, thereby accumulating stacks. Thanks to its availability and efficiency, it is suitable for any build.
Under the Blue Sky ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 21-476 DEF 15-330	Increases the wearer's attack power by 16-32%. After defeating the enemy, crit. owner's chance is increased by 12-24% for 3 turns.	Weapon with a bonus to ATK and crit rate. If the attack is given on a permanent basis, then the main requirement for obtaining a critical chance is that you need to destroy victims every 3 turns. The position is due to the reliable fulfillment of the passive requirement - otherwise the cone sags significantly.
Nowhere to Run ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 24-529 DEF 12-264	Increases the wearer's attack power by 24-48%. When the owner defeats the opponent, restores 12-24% of max HP.	The ATK bonus is interesting, reaching 5% on S48. The additional bonus of HP recovery can be useful, since Hanya's older sister has a pretty good taunt stat, but the previous epic weapons are more profitable, not to mention the "card" from the Simulated Universe.
Indelible Promise ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 22-476 DEF 15-331	Break effect is increased by 28-56%. When the owner uses an ult, their crit. chance increases by 15-30% for 2 turns.	If you are unable to gain a sufficient value of break effect through the Cavern Relics, you can equip this Light Cone. In addition, the "card" will provide the heroine with an increase in critical chance for several turns after using the ultimate. However, it should be taken into account that the lack of effects to increase ATK must be compensated for through relics.
Brighter Than the Sun ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 28-635 DEF 18-396	Increases the owner's crit. chance by 18-30%. When the bearer uses a basic attack, he gains 1 lvl. Dragon's Call status for 2 turns. Each status level of Dragon's Call increases the wearer's attack power by 18-30% and energy recovery rate by 6-10%. The Dragon's Call status can stack up to 2 times.	The highest basic attack among legendary weapons, a good increase in critical damage. The passive that gives ATK and energy recovery is quite difficult to implement, since the Ten-Lord Commission Judge does not use basic attack that often - she prefers to use the skill to reduce the resistance of a potential victim. The cone becomes more viable in a team with Bronya due to rotation Basic attack - Bronya - Skill.
Dance at Sunset ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 26-582 DEF 21-463	The enemy is more likely to attack a hero equipped with a weapon. The owner's critical damage is increased by 36-60%, and after activating the ult, he acquires 1 level of the Fire Dance status. The effect lasts 2 turns and can stack up to 2 times. Each level of the Fire Dance status allows the wearer's bonus attacks to hit 36-60% more damage.	Increasing the chance to be attacked allows you to gain energy faster to perform the ultimate, but at the same time, survivability will decrease. The weapon will increase the puppet girl's critical damage and make bonus hits stronger, but will not provide a significant increase to ATK.
Something Irreplaceable ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 52-1164 ATK 26-582 DEF 18-396	Increases attack power by 24-40%. When the wearer defeats an opponent or receives an attack, immediately restores HP equal to 8-12% from attack power. At the same time, the wearer's damage is increased by 24-40% until the end of the next turn. The effect does not stack and only occurs once per turn.	Always provides ATK, and under certain conditions restores health and damage. The second part of the passive effect is quite unreliable, since it is necessary to defeat the target or get hit, while the base stats practically do not compensate for this. S3 awakening is recommended.
The Unreachable Side ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 57-1270 ATK 26-582 DEF 15-330	Owner's crit chance is increased by 18-30%, and their max. HP by 18-30%. Whenever the wearer receives an attack or spends health, their damage is increased by 24-40%. This effect is removed after the owner uses an attack.	While the passive bonus isn't as easy to implement as other limited weapons, the HP and crit chance boost will make the Ten-Lord Commission Judge more resilient and easier to pick crit stats for. If she does take damage or lose health, the weapon will open up even more, but it will require playing without shields.
I Shall Be My Own Sword ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 52-1164 ATK 26-582 DEF 18-396	Increases crit. damage by 20-32%. When an ally is attacked or uses up HP, the owner gains 1 lvl. Lunar Eclipse status. Maximum - 3. Each stack increases the damage of the next attack by 14-24%. Reaching 3 status levels will allow this attack to be ignored 12-20% enemy defense. After performing an attack, all levels are reset.	Another cone with nice bonuses, but a rather situational passive. Increases crit dmg, and also buffs all DPS and allows you to ignore monster defense. The latter buffs are given only when allies take damage, so it is best used in a team with heroes who have high taunt.
A Secret Vow ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 48-1058 ATK 21-476 DEF 12-264	Increases wearer's damage by 20-40%. The owner also inflicts additional 20-40% damage to selected enemies with a higher percentage of HP than the owner.	The cone provides a percentage increase in damage, which has a greater impact on DPS, but the puppet girl already has quite a few bonuses to damage, so ATK is more beneficial from a balance point of view. However, the weapon is still strong, especially if the condition is met and the heroine attacks an enemy with lower HP than her.
Woof! Walk Time! (F2P) ⭐⭐⭐⭐ HP 43-952 ATK 21-476 DEF 15-330	Increases ATK by 10-20%, also increases damage dealt to Burn and Bleed enemies by 16-32%. This effect also applies to damage over time.	A good free weapon. Gives ATK and increases all DPS if enemies are under Burn or Bleed. The difficulty is in the narrow focus of the second half of the passive, which works exclusively in a team with characters capable of imposing the corresponding effects.
Collapsing Sky ⭐⭐⭐ HP 38-846 ATK 16-370 DEF 9-198	Increases the damage of the basic attack and skill of the owner by 20-40%.	A good starting cone that can be equipped for the first time. Increases damage basic attack and skill. If the normal strike is not performed so often, then the skill is one of the main sources of damage, which is necessary to destroy enemy toughness.
Shattered Home ⭐⭐⭐ HP 38-846 ATK 16-370 DEF 9-198	The owner's damage dealt to enemies whose HP is above 50% is increased by 20-40%.	Another 3-star weapon that is good for beginners until they can get the cones discussed above. The bonus is less constant, as it only increases damage if the victim's health is above half, but it applies to all skills.

What relics and ornaments are needed

Relics should provide the heroine with ATK, elemental damage bonus, break and crits. Recommended sets of cavern relics and planar ornaments are discussed in the tables.

Cavern relics

Name	Effects	Recommendation
Genius of Brilliant Stars	2 parts: Increases quantum damage by 10%. 4 parts: When the owner deals damage to the selected enemy, ignores 10% defense. If the target enemy has a Quantum Weakness, the wearer ignores an additional 10% Defense.	A great set of relics. Suitable for enemies with and without quantum vulnerability, since Hanya's older sister always drains toughness with her ultimate and bonus attack on E2. However, the main advantage of the set is the cut of monsters' defense, which will also significantly increase DPS.
Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge	2 parts: Increases break effect by 16%. 4 parts: Break damage ignores 10% of the target's defense if the break effect is equal to or greater than 150%. When the pierce effect exceeds 250%, the wearer's super pierce damage ignores the additional 15% defense.	The set will help to get the optimal value of the break effect and will make its break stronger by ignoring the target's defense. The heroine needs to balance this parameter with crit. chance and damage, so achieving the maximum disclosure of the bonus will only be possible in certain modes and together with the imaginary MC, but even so the set is not bad.
Thief of Shooting Meteor	2 parts: Increases break effect by 16%. 4 parts: Increases break effect by 16%. Restores 3 energy after breaking the target's vulnerability.	Since the Puppet Girl relies on the break effect, this set also fits her very well. It will allow you to focus on other stats and provide an increase in all damage, since the break rate affects the buff from the "Clairvoyant Loom" trace. Additionally, it will help in restoring energy.
Thief of Shooting Meteor / Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge Musketeer of Wild Wheat / Genius of Brilliant Stars / Pioneer Diver of Dead Waters	2 Piece: Increases break effect by 16%. 2 parts: Increases quantum damage by 10%. 2 parts: Increases attack power by 12%. 2 parts: Increases damage dealt to enemies with Debuffs by 12%.	An excellent combination of relics with the highest priority bonuses for the heroine. If there are parts with good support stats, the discussed combinations with the Thief can be a decent option.
Pioneer Diver of Dead Waters	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.	A strong set of relics that requires hitting victims with debuffs, otherwise none of the bonuses will work. Gives an increase in damage and crit rate, and with enough debuffs also increases crit dmg
The Wind-Soaring Valorous	2 parts: Increases attack power by 12%. 4 parts: Increases crit. chance by 6%. After the owner performs a bonus attack, the damage of his ult increases by 30%. This effect lasts for 1 turn.	The set can be implemented with the last eidolon and sufficient energy recovery to gain bonus hits faster. The set will significantly enhance the ult of the judge of the Ten-Lord Commission and will be useful in many situations.
Musketeer of Wild Wheat	2 parts: Increases ATK by 12%. 4 parts: Increases the wearer's speed by 6% and their basic attack damage by 10%.	Allows you to achieve optimal speed without investing in sub-stats and offers ATK, which is a useful stat for Hanya's older sister. Easy to obtain (drops from Caverns of Corrosion, chests, bosses) and versatile, but not as good as the previous alternatives.
The Ashblazing Grand Duke	2 parts: Increases bonus attack damage by 20%. 4 parts: When the wearer deals damage with a bonus attack, their attack power is increased by 6%. This effect can stack up to 8 times and lasts for 3 turns. The effect is removed the next time you use a bonus attack.	Considering that the puppet girl uses a bonus attack, this is a completely acceptable option. In addition to increasing damage, it also provides a good increase in ATK. It is more effective against enemies weak to the quantum element (up to E2), but even in this case, the Genius will be better.

Planar ornaments

Name	Effects	Recommendation
Talia: Kingdom of Banditry	2 parts: Increases break effect by 16%. If the owner's speed is greater than or equal to 145, then his break effect increases by an additional 20%.	Increases break effect, and therefore the entire DPS. With high speed, it gives 36% bonus damage, while simultaneously increasing the damage from "Binding". If the speed is below 145, it is better to consider other options, although this ornaments is the "ceiling" of the character.
Firmament Frontline: Glamoth	2 parts: Increases 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%.	A set that increases ATK and damage dealt. Although even at the minimum required speed threshold, the ornaments is still quite effective, if you want to get the maximum benefit from using it, you will need to reach 160 speed.
Space Sealing Station	2 parts: Increases attack power by 12%. When speed reaches 120 or higher, attack power increases by an additional 12%.	The set offers a significant ATK boost of 24%. It is also easy to obtain and implement, as it only requires 120 Haste. If you fail to reach 160 for Glamoth, Space Sealing Station becomes better.
Inert Salsotto	2 parts: Increases crit. 8% chance. When the crit chance reaches 50% or higher, the damage of your super and bonus attacks is increased by 15%.	A good planar set that increases crit chance, as well as ultimate damage and attack bonus if crit chance is greater than 50%. An acceptable alternative in the absence of other sets with useful bonuses that will positively affect the final damage.
Rutilant Arena	2 parts: Increases crit. 8% chance. If critical The owner's chance is 70% (or higher), the damage of his basic attack and skill is increased by 20%.	Another set with a crit chance. Loses to Salsotto due to the fact that it has a stricter requirement for Crit Rate and less beneficial buffs. For example, basic attack is almost never used in the heroine's rotation, which means the passive effect will no longer be realized to the maximum.

Team Guide for Xueyi in HSR

In a team, Xueyi plays the role of a primary or secondary DD. In the first case, the team is built around her: suitable supports of the Path of Harmony and/or Nihility are needed. In the second case, she becomes part of a team with two damage dealers, where she plays a supporting role.

It is important to consider how actively allies reduce the monsters' durability in order to gain Karma levels to trigger the bonus attack. Ideally, the heroine's team should be composed in such a way that each unit can break the weakness of at least one victim (preferably several).

Which characters are suitable?

The table shows the best partners for the judge of the Ten-Lord Commission:

Character	Path	Damage type	Features
Topaz and Numby	The Hunt	Fire	Summons Numby who deals fire damage with a bonus attack, thus repeatedly breaking the weakness of monsters. Unleashes the talent of the Puppet Girl, increasing the DPS of her own bonus attack.
Doctor Ratio	The Hunt	Imaginary	Acts as the main DPS character, therefore, the judge of the Ten-Lord Commission will be assigned the role of an additional damage dealer. An important nuance, in turn, is that Ratio is in dire need of characters capable of maintaining debuffs on victims (from 2 and more). Therefore, the team will have to be built in such a way that the scientist does not experience a serious need for negative statuses, and the overall contribution of the mechanical heroine does not sag due to a lack of third-party support in the form of buffs.
Seele	The Hunt	Quantum	Can gain several levels of Karma status for Hanya's elder sister in one turn. Demanding of action points, so the Ten-Lord Commission judge mainly relies on basic attack.
Boothill	The Hunt	Physical	A strong damage dealer with high damage on one target. The mechanical heroine will perfectly complement his team as a secondary DD. In turn, Boothill specializes in break and does it quite successfully, which will help in obtaining Karma stacks.
Feixiao	The Hunt	Physical	Arbiter General excels at dealing with tanky enemies, relying on the bonus attack that comes with her talent, skill, and ultimate. She also synergizes well with heroes that can deal additional damage, allowing her to stack Flying Aureus for her ultimate.
Yanqing	The Hunt	Ice	Breaks the toughness of one victim due to skills and a bonus hit that is triggered during Soulsteel Sync. Due to the first trace, also deals damage to targets with weakness to the ice element.
Sushang	The Hunt	Physical	Can make up for the damage gap when monsters are broken. Effectively drains the stamina of one enemy target with a skill due to Sword Stance, which deals additional physical damage.
March 7	The Hunt	Imaginary	A secondary damage dealer who applies the "Shifu" buff to a selected ally using his skill. Does decent damage and can easily serve as the main combat unit in a team.

Firefly Rappa	Xueyi	Ruan Mei Fugue Asta	Lingsha Gallagher	A team consisting of two damage dealers: the Ten-Lord Commission Judge and Firefly/Rappa. The ideal support role in this case is Ruan Mei, Fugue, or Asta, since their buffs are distributed to all party members.

F2P teams with free and 4-star characters:

Character 1	Character 2	Character 3	Character 4	Features

If necessary, the Ten-Lord Commission Judge can be replaced with Gallagher, who is also a debuffer and will maintain the combat ability of the MC.

Conclusion

Xueyi is a decent Path of Destruction character who uses the quantum damage type. The heroine's key feature is to reduce the durability of potential victims and break their weaknesses. She can perform bonus attacks, accumulating Karma levels for debuffing enemy defense, and also get a damage increase for the ultimate when hostile creatures are sufficiently exhausted. In addition, there is a boost in the traces that will additionally increase the entire DPS by 100% and directly depends on break effect.

In a team, the puppet girl acts as a main DD or sub-DD. In the first case, she needs supports and eidolons to reveal her potential to the maximum. In the second case, she deals less damage, but does not need awakening or support so much. Despite mastering the quantum element, she shows herself well in any build thanks to the ult, which ignores all vulnerabilities, and E2, which adds a similar mechanic to the bonus attack. Although the Judge of the Ten-Lord Commission is an epic hero, she is able to significantly "accelerate" her DPS and clear even difficult content.

We hope that thanks to this article we were able to make the best build for Xueyi in Honkai: Star Rail. In the comments, ask any questions about the character so that the author or other players can help.
