Top 5 BEST 4-Star Characters in Honkai Star Rail

[@matiasrivas1692]

One other thing to mention about Pela is that she's very economical to build. You really only need to raise her ultimate and talent, since leveling her skill only raises it's damage, which doesn't move the needle on the teams damage much. Ditto for Asta, she only really needs her talent and ultimate. Meaning they take very little investment to deploy.

Asta skill could do a decent amount of damage becauae it is multi hit so I could see even just for breaking enemies or just slightly more damage output, it might also be worth leveling her skill even if it may be low priority.

Solid list. However, I'd argue that Gallagher is currently the best 4 star in the game. His value does not decrease with the release of Lingsha because he is more SP positive (he basically never uses his skill), something that E0 Firefly absolutely needs. Also, he is excellent for Acheron since he can give her 2 stacks with every ult (besotted + ATK reduction on enhanced basic), that is another reason why Lingsha doesn't powercreep him completely. Finally, I'd say that his E2 is required for lower investment teams because they might need the heals from Gallagher's skill much more often and he has no other way of cleansing. Tingyun is absolutely amazing, but she is best for hypercarry teams, from which the meta has shifted, while Gallagher is great for 2 of the most effective teams currently: SuperBreak Firefly and Acheron. Unless the meta comes back to hypercarry, Tingyun can't be the best in these days.

Good video. I basically have to agree with everything in it. I personally have some honerable mentions too...the 3rd one might be a bit too much copium but hey. 1. Lynx is a really decent healer if you lack other options and she can be best in slot for units that want aggro like Blade, Clara and Yunli. She has cleanse and her eidolons give units more max HP, more effect resistance and even a small atk boost that only lasts for one turn but is really well used with counter units like Clara and Yunli. 2. QQ is gamble...you may have to reset a couple of times until you get the right results...but when she cooks...SHE COOKS. 3. I personally think Serval is really decent for such an old unit. Her E6 is a really great DMG boost, her burst cost is really low and she makes a decent pure ficition unit. Couple her with Jade and she gets even better. Sure there are better options but she does her job really well and her DMG is higher than you may think. I also really like Hanya but when it comes to "buffer" characters she gets outclassed by a lot...but the things she provides are still quite nice. And Hanya and her animations look like a 5 star if we are being honest here.

lynx heal is so low though compare to galagar or anyone else i started using her on my acheron team after i pulled firefly i used gala with her i started noticing even after giving her 5.5k hp, post op lightcone all trace lvl 9 she only heals like 1.4k am i doing smth wrong?

[@ktstorms5285]

@@PasangDofy lynx healing is outgoing it boosts max hp + still heals for 2 or 3 turns after the character you healed starts their turn . it is not a big raw number indeed so against hard hitters she will have a hard time

​​​@@PasangDofy Lynx healing is weak just like HuoHuo in exchange for great utility

[@mhbarney8499]

@@PasangDofy Of course if you compare her to all the 5 star healers her numbers look mid. But she provides some utility even most 5 star units arent providing and again, if you play Clara or Yunli without Yunli LC then Lynx might be your best option. And because these two are quite bulky and will draw a lot of aggro the healing is fine most of the time.

Always bet on Qingque!!

Good video. Fully agree with the top 5, although i might move a couple around like Gallagher and march swapping Think Moze can soon be a contender for top 5 too, like march

[@stylerxo3654]

Argenti's average score is higher than Herta's in the current PF.

[@daryankuro8823]

But Herta 4 star and free

[@stylerxo3654]

@@daryankuro8823 and Argenti is better than Herta, so the video is still wrong for saying she's the best DPS, point blank, in PF.
