The Elation Trailblazer in Honkai Star Rail may remind players of the Remembrance variant. Just like its counterparts, including the Harmony Trailblazer, the Elation Trailblazer is primarily designed to enhance the performance of other Elation characters. By amplifying their damage output, they enable major DPS characters to unleash greater damage potential. The Elation Trailblazer’s skill set is relatively straightforward, making character building a simpler task.
In this guide, we will explore the most effective builds and team compositions for the HSR Elation Trailblazer, focusing on optimal choices for 4-star characters and equipment.
Optimal Build for the HSR Elation Trailblazer
- Elation Trailblazer Light Cone
- Elation Trailblazer Relics
- Elation Trailblazer Ornaments
- Elation Trailblazer Stats
- Elation Trailblazer Teams
Elation Trailblazer Light Cones
While the Elation Trailblazer does not possess a unique Light Cone, they can utilize the 5-star option Elation Brimming with Blessings, available in Herta’s store. This Light Cone boosts the wearer’s attack and increases the Elation stat of allies when the user employs either their skill or ultimate ability. Although it does not aid in energy regeneration, it enhances the damage dealt by the target’s next hit.
If you are using Yao Guang, their Light Cone, When She Decides to See, is an exceptional alternative. This cone enhances the party’s critical rate and boosts the wearer’s energy regeneration and speed, making it a versatile support choice.
Another good choice available in HSR 4.2 is Mushy Shroomy’s Adventures, obtainable through the Forgotten Hall store. This Light Cone enhances the wearer’s Elation and increases the Elation damage inflicted on all enemies whenever the wearer uses their Elation skill. This will be particularly useful when the Trailblazer’s ultimate ability allows an ally to use their Elation skill at no cost.
Elation Trailblazer Relics
For optimal performance, the Elation Trailblazer should equip the Diviner of Distant Reach relic set. Here’s what each piece offers:
- Two-piece effect: Increases speed by 6%.
- Four-piece effect: If the wearer’s speed is at least 120/160 before combat, their critical rate increases by 10/18%.Upon first using their Elation skill, all allies receive a 10% Elation buff that lasts the entire battle.
While aiming for a speedy build is essential, the benefit of the Elation buff can be triggered even if you do not meet the two-speed threshold. However, avoid using this set if another Elation character in your lineup is already utilizing it, as the buff does not stack. Alternatives include:
- Messenger Traversing Hackerspace
- Two pieces from Messenger and Sacerdos’ Relived Ordeal (or Warrior Goddess) for an additional 12% speed increase.
Elation Trailblazer Ornaments
The Sprightly Vonwacq ornament set is another excellent choice for the Elation Trailblazer due to its energy regeneration bonuses. Additionally, when the wearer’s speed exceeds 120, it also provides an action advance buff. If you have good effect resistance stats on your Relics, consider the Broken Keel ornament, which offers a 10% critical damage boost for the entire team at 30% effect resistance.
Elation Trailblazer Stats
As a support character, the Elation Trailblazer prioritizes speed and energy regeneration over attack power. Critical rate and critical damage are beneficial but don’t take precedence over having solid defenses or HP for sustainability.
- Body: Focus on critical rate, critical damage, HP, or defense.
- Feet: Speed enhancements are crucial.
- Sphere: Aim for HP, defense, or attack.
- Rope: Improve energy regeneration.
While 160 speed is optimal, maintaining a speed above 120 is acceptable until the right substats can be attained.
Elation Trailblazer Team Compositions
The Elation Trailblazer’s design is inherently supportive, enabling Elation teams to maximize damage output. In HSR 4.2, your DPS options are somewhat limited, but you can team them with:
- Silver Wolf LV.999
- Sparxie
Yao Guang can provide a valuable damage boost; however, additional support characters include:
- Tingyun
- Sunday
- Sparkle
These characters contribute energy regeneration boosts that enhance overall team sustainability, and Huohuo can also be beneficial for energy regeneration.
