The BEST Break DPS!! | Boothill Guide & Build | Honkai Star Rail 2.2

I imagine he'll be good with bronya/swordplay since he doesn't have dmg multipliers in his kit. in that case maybe 0 spd or slightly more spd than bronya is ideal. lost 50 50 on boothill so cant test it myself tho

[@D1FENIX]

Boothill doesn't have DMG multipliers in his kit and on his Lightcone because they don't actually increase his dmg. For the tests I've made, dmg multipliers don't affect any break DMG, only DEF reduction/ignore debuffs. Which is something his Lightcone and Eidolons provide. That's why I consider an ATK% orb and a LC that provides ATK% more valuable. Bronya is there more to provide an extra turn and a little bit of ATK when she Ults. He doesn't care that much about the CRIT DMG and the DMG boost. Boothill just wants to attack as fast as he can while the enemy is broken to maximize his DMG. But ofc, you can still run him with Swordplay, but if you have any 4* that provides ATK, SPD or both they are miles ahead Swordsplay. And Bronya is indeed one of the best supports for him due to the reasons I mentioned before. I hope you can get him!!! I didn't get him on my account, but I was able to test him and he is amazing.

@@D1FENIX meh i won too many 50/50 back to back b4 boothill. Ill humble myself and wait for firefly 😂 but boothill’s kit definitely tricky then. Good work testing him. Hybrid build still sounds interesting tho idk. Id test it if i could

Could boothill Gallagher hmc and SW work?

[@D1FENIX]

Yes it can! Silverwolf is amazing for Boothill too because her DEF reduction is one of the few things that can actually improve break DMG. That team is perfectly duable

I do have a question; would Subscribe For More be good as well? His Skill doesn’t damage but it could be good for his Enhanced Basic right??

[@D1FENIX]

Not that much. Most of Boothill DMG comes from the Talent, which basically deals a bigger percentage of his break if he attacks opponents with his Enhanced Basic ATK. And besides, Boothill always likes his ultimate since it's the only thing that can apply Physical weakness and delay enemies if the battle gets extended. So unfortunately, our "Subscribe for more" S1000 will still be useless 😭

@@D1FENIX damn. Unless I get lucky on Light Cone pulls he gotta share Swordplay or the Dan Heng LC.

[@D1FENIX]

@@ichigokage Break DMG is not influenced by DMG multipliers in any way. So between those 2, Dan Heng LC that provides ATK and some crits is the best choice. If you are using those LC on some characters already, you can use the 3* one. It's good on Boothill and will do the job until you get a better LC
