2.1 Character Tier List Honkai: Star Rail


How and why I ranked them like so:

AoE is King! Characters with AoE-Target damage are placed higher because the endgame content focuses on more than one target.

Altough characters with high Single Target DPS have also a slight bias as the current META has 2 Elites. (ex: Dr. Ratio)

Other stats taken in consideration:

- Total DPS with the best in slot build
- AoE vs Single Target DPS per turn
- Team comps and versatility

Best DPS Characters in Honkai Star Rail

Acheron, Jingliu, Kafka and D.H.I.L are the best DPS ranking in OP-Tier for version 2.1

Best Support Characters Honkai Star Rail

Ruan Mei and Sparkle are the best Supports ranking in OP-Tier for version 2.1

Best Healer/Sustain/Tank Characters Honkai Star Rail

Fu Xuan and HuoHuo are the best Sustains ranking in OP-Tier for version 2.1


Best Characters for Honkai: Star Rail in Pure Fiction

Pure Fiction Tier List is way different than the normal Tier List due to the nature of the game mode where you need to defeat multiple waves of enemies fast.
