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 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.
