Best Relics in Honkai Star Rail

Powerful Relics can be a game changer.

When you advance a bit in Honkai Star Rail you will start encountering so-called Relics that can boost your character. Relics are in essence sets of equipment for your character to wear and when you either get a complete set or a part of it, your character will receive bonuses in attack, defense, or any particular type of damage such as fire or lightning damage. Think of Diablo 3 and green sets.

Since there are dozens of Relics in the game we’ve decided to narrow down the ones we consider are the best and can in the greatest way benefit characters in your team. Read on to find out which Relics you should look for in Honkai Star Rail.

Top Relics in Hokai Star Rail

Bonuses that Relics in Hokai Star Rail offer are numerous and suitable for any kind of character. Since they provide boosts that focus on different things we will break down the top Relics into a couple of categories.

  • The best Defense Relic
  • The best Offense Relic
  • The best Support Relic
  • The best Team Relic

The Best Defensive Relic

The best defensive Relic in the game is definitely Knight of Purity Palace. When you have 2 pieces of this set it increases your defense by 12%, while the full 4 pieces equipped provide the shields you create with additional 20% damage absorption. This Relic could be great on March 7th since her shielding ability is great at protecting teammates from getting easily nuked. This Relic can be obtained as a Weekly boss drop in 4-star and 5-star rarities or from Jarilo-VI’s Great Mine.

An honorable mention would be the Belobog of the Architects, which is a 2-piece set. It provides the wearer with a 15% bonus defense with an additional 15% received when their Effect Hit Rate is 50% or higher. In case your character has a high Effect Hit Rate and you are looking for a defensive Relic then this one might be the perfect choice for you.

The Best Offensive Relic

When it comes to Relics that boost attack, we recommend none other than the Musketeer of Wild Wheat. This set piece increases the attack by 10% when you have 2 pieces equipped, and boosts that up with an additional 10% to basic attack damage and a 6% speed increase when you have all 4 pieces. Every DPS’s dream. You can obtain Musketeer of Wild Wheat either in the Corridor of Fading Echoes in Jarrilo-VI or from the 4-star and 5-star boss drops.

An additional offensive Relic that might be interesting is the Space Sealing Station. This Relic has only 2 pieces and those give a 12% attack bonus and an added 12% attack when your speed reaches 120 or higher.

The Best Support Relic

Passerby of Wandering Cloud Relic will be the choice for support characters. It is a 4 piece Relic that offers two distinct but valuable bonuses. When you grab 2 pieces you will get a 10% Outgoing Healing bonus and when you have all 4 you will recover 1 skill point at the start of each fight. You can get your hands on this powerful Relic in the Corridor of Fading Echoes in Jarrilo-VI or from the Weekly 4-star and 5-star bosses.

The Best Team Relic

The title of the best team Relic goes to the extraordinary Fleet of the Ageless Relic. There are only 2 pieces in this set and they provide some great bonuses for the whole team. Firstly they give the wearer an extra 12% Max HP (which helps him to tank some more damage and stand on his feet longer) and an attack increase of 8% for the whole team each time the wearer’s speed goes to 120 or higher. You can get Fleet of the Ageless Relic from Hertha’s Office in Herta Space Station. It will cost you 1x Immersifier and 40x Trailblaze Power.
