Honkai Star Rail Aglaea Guide: Team Composition

Aglaea – Main DPS: Aglaea summons the memosprite “Garmentmaker” during battle. When Honkai Star Rail Aglaea uses her Ultimate, she enters “Supreme Stance,” gaining SPD Boost stacks from Garmentmaker’s ability and enhancing her Basic Attack. This enhanced Basic Attack becomes a joint strike from both Honkai Star Rail Aglaea and Garmentmaker, dealing significant Lightning damage to the target and nearby enemies. Additionally, Garmentmaker can increase its own SPD during combat, amplifying its effectiveness.

Sunday – Support: Sunday is a versatile Support character who enhances the team’s performance through energy regeneration and damage boosts. His Ultimate, “Ode to Caress and Cicatrix,” restores Energy to a selected teammate and transforms them, along with their summon, into “The Beatified,” increasing their CRIT DMG based on Sunday’s CRIT DMG. His Skill, “Benison of Paper and Rites,” allows an ally and their summon to act immediately, further increasing their damage potential.

Robin – Support: Robin excels at amplifying the entire team’s offensive capabilities. By using her Ultimate, she enters the “Concerto” state, granting all allies an immediate action. During this state, all allies’ ATK is increased based on Robin’s ATK. After each ally’s attack, Robin deals extra Physical damage to a single target, making her a powerful Support character for coordinated team assaults.

Huohuo – Healer: Huohuo is a dual-role Healer and Support, ensuring her team’s longevity while boosting their offensive output. Her Ultimate skill regenerates Energy for all allies and increases their ATK%, offering both sustainability and increased damage potential. This balance of healing and support makes Huohuo a reliable and valuable asset to any team composition.

Strengths of the Team

High Damage Output: The combination of CRIT DMG, ATK boosts, and enhanced SPD ensures Honkai Star Rail Aglaea deals consistent, heavy damage throughout the fight.

Versatility: Sunday and Robin provide tactical flexibility with their immediate action-granting abilities, allowing for quick responses to changing battle conditions.

Sustainability: Huohuo ensures the team’s longevity with her healing and energy regeneration, maintaining the momentum of the fight.

Synergy with Summons: Both Sunday and Robin enhance Honkai Star Rail Aglaea’s synergy with Garmentmaker, optimizing their shared mechanics.

Potential Weaknesses

Reliance on Aglaea: The team’s damage output is highly dependent on Honkai Star Rail Aglaea, so losing her can severely hinder effectiveness.

Speed Dependency: Honkai Star Rail Aglaea and her teammates rely on SPD boosts and action advantages to maintain tempo; debuffs like SPD reduction could disrupt the flow.

AoE Vulnerability: While Huohuo can heal the team, heavy AoE damage from enemies could pressure her energy management.
