There are many different Relic sets available in Honkai: Star Rail, and the list consistently grows as new updates arrive, so it can be tough to figure out which ones to give each recruit.

Whether you’re struggling to build a character you just obtained or need to refresh an older recruits set, here is a breakdown of the best Relics for every playable character in Honkai: Star Rail, which we will update as new Relics and recruits join the game.

Best Relics for every Honkai: Star Rail character

The best relics for each Honkai: Star Rail character will largely vary depending on what path they are part of. There are also many ways to build each recruit, so you’ll find the ultimate best choices and some other options for the main Relics and the Planar Ornaments listed here, too.

Best Relics for characters on the Destruction path

Generally, the best Relics for Destruction characters are a combination of two different two-piece sets. The first set should build their specific elemental damage, and the second should raise their attack since characters who are part of this path are overall tanky damage dealers. Building critical rate and critical damage is important, too, whether it be through the main Relics or the additional Planar Ornaments.

Best Relics for characters on the Preservation path

Characters who are a part of the Preservation path will shine best when they have Relics that build their defensive and support abilities. This primarily means building defense and health points.

Best Relics for characters on the Hunt path

The best Relics for the Hunt recruits are those that raise their single-target damage abilities, which means enhancing their attack and individual elemental powers.

Best Relics for characters on the Erudition path

Those who are a part of the Erudition path need Relics that build their general attack and damage output. This generally means that the best Relics for them will build upon their unique elemental skills and overall attack to increase their damage output. 

Best Relics for characters on the Harmony path

Characters in the Harmony path need their buffing support abilities enhanced. This looks very different for each Harmony recruit, but the best Relics for them include increases to areas like speed and general buffs that apply to the entire party.

Best Relics for characters on the Abundance path

Since Abundance characters are highly dedicated to healing, the best Relics for them are those that build their health points and outgoing healing.

Best Relics for characters on the Nihility path

Every Nihility recruit is extremely different from the rest, so the best Relics for these characters will vary most of all. But you’ll generally focus on areas like effect hit rate, debuffing, general attack, and elemental abilities.
