Relics

  • Feet - Speed
  • Body - HP% or DEF%

Planar Ornaments

  • Rope - ERR for the early game, and Break Effect for the late
  • Sphere - HP% or DEF%

Harmony MC can shine in a Break-Centric team composition. Currently, not many characters can pair well with the Trailblazer, but future characters like Boothill, or Firefly in Honkai Star Rail will perform well with them if the leaks are accurate.

But still, you can use the Harmony MC in a few teams which we will suggest below. Keep in mind that you will need to adjust the team recommendation according to the characters available in your account.

  • Ruan Mei, Xueyi, Gallagher
  • Ruan Mei, Gallagher, Serval
  • Ruan Mei, Himeko, Topaz
  • Luka/ Sampo, Gallagher, Kafka
  • Herta, Himeko, Gallagher
  • Silver Wolf, Xueyi, Gallagher

We do recommend running Gallagher as your sustain because of his ability to take down Enemy Toughness Bars quickly.


Best Honkai Star Rail Harmony Trailblazer build guide: Traces priority

Your Fuel will most likely be used to upgrade Harmony MC's traces more than anything else in Honkai Star Rail. Their kit is focused on increasing your damage against enemies that have their weaknesses broken.

Here is a breakdown of Harmony Trailblazer's kit.

  • Normal Attack: Deals Imaginary Damage to enemies
  • Skill: Deals Imaginary damage to your Target and then unleashes four random bounce attacks on your enemies.
  • Ultimate: Buffs Break Effect and gives the Backup Dancer status to the entire team for three turns. This status grants the Superbreak bonus to the team.
  • Talent: Gives ten Energy to Trailblazer when an enemy has their weakness broken.

Here are traces that you should prioritize:

Ultimate = Talent > Skill

You can ignore the basic attack as you will not be using it often. Do remember to unlock the Ascension Traces as they are equally important to Trailblazer's kit and the Break Effect boosts.
