The main reason is that the latest releases are usually the most powerful in their respective classes. For example, DPS characters Acheron and Firefly consistently dealt over 100,000 damage with the right build and team composition, something that previous 5-stars of the same class found difficult to achieve. Final enemies in H.S.R. They seem to be getting stronger with each new version of the game, so having units that can keep up with them can make the experience easier.

Shine
The Masked Fool Sparkle repeats in parallel with Jiaoqiu’s banner. She is an excellent limited 5-star Harmony aid that can fit different teams as she can provide additional skill points using her ultimate and ally advanced actions using her ability. It’s perfect for teams with skill point-hungry damage dealers like Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae, Qingque, and even Acheron.
Lingsha
According to leaks, Lingsha can inflict Befog, which is a debuff that can increase damage taken by enemies. She can also constantly heal herself using her ability, and summoning her deals additional damage while also healing and cleansing allies. She could be premium support for rest teams and an alternative to Aventurine for tracking competitions.
Feixiao
Feixiao, the general of Xianzhou Yaoqing, is a Hunt character who keeps track of allied attacks and has an action advance built into her equipment. According to her leaks, her ult can take up a large percentage of her ATK while also reducing the opponent’s toughness regardless of the element. She is another great FUA unit that can synergize well with Topaz, Dr. Ratio, Robin, Aventurine, March 7 (The Hunt), and of course Lingsha.
Robin
This powerful Harmony support is rumored to be part of a three-unit reprise with Kafka and Black Swan in Honkai: star lane version 2.5. She specializes in providing constant damage boosts to all allies and advancing her actions by 100% with huge damage and critical rate buffs using her ultimate. These traits make her the best support for tracking teams who want to take turns from her as often as possible. However, its versatile advantages also make it ideal for other competitions such as DOT and traditional hypercarry.
Dr. ratio
This Hunt unit is rumored to be part of the 2.5 reboots, but could be replaced by Topaz and Numby, according to updated leaks from other sources. He has up to a 40% chance to throw his chalk at an enemy after performing an attack, dealing up to 270% of their ATK. Dr. Ratio also has the ability to distribute his follow-ups to weakened opponents. He is the perfect primary DPS for those looking to build a follow-up team, as he can synergize with units that can debuff and attack frequently.

kafka
This unit was released a long time ago Honkai: star lane Version 1.2, but still one of the most powerful damage dealers in the game due to her ability to anticipate damage over time (DOT), she becomes a painful instance using her ability. Her talent allows her to deal additional damage by following allies’ basic attacks and inflicting Shock DOT on top of that. Kafka remains on top as the top DOT DPS, especially when he is paired with Black Swan.
black swan
This Memokeeper is Kafka’s best sub-DPS unit because he can consistently stack Arcana, his signature DOT, using his base attack and ability. This deals up to 240% of their ATK at the start of the enemy’s turn and increases DOT damage. Arcana can also spread to adjacent opponents. This makes Kafka’s job of causing major damage by activating DOT much easier. Black Swan can do without Kafka, but players will miss out on the front-loading DOT nukes the pair are known for.
Topaz and numb
This senior IPC officer is rumored to do another repeat in Honkai: star lane Version 2.5, and she is an excellent addition. Topaz’s ability marks enemies with “Proof of Debt” and causes his summon, Numby, to perform a follow-up attack that deals 150% of his ATK. When allies hit these marked enemies, Numby’s next action advances by more than 50%. While he has tremendous potential in follow-up competitions, he is not an ideal support pick outside of them. Fortunately, there has been an increase in 5 and 4 star tracking units that can complement the Topaz kit.

Jiaoqiu
Foxian Healer Jiaoqiu is Acheron’s best support, as he can constantly apply his Ashen Roast debuff on his turn, leading the latter to use his ultimate more frequently. Ashen Roast also increases the damage dealt to enemies, making Emanator of Nihility even more deadly. This unit can also fit into DOT equipment, but other than that, it is not as versatile as other supports.

Standard Banner has some decent characters for new players, such as Bronya, Clara, and Himeko. However, Stellar Jades are not worth investing in. It’s a multi-character banner, so the odds of getting the specific unit the player wants are low, even with a guaranteed 5-star draw. It is best for players to only use the free Standard Star Rail passes from the events and the battle pass so they can access the 5-star 300-Warp selector and choose the unit they want to add to their roster.
