Honkai Star Rail: Clara Kit, Best Build & Light Cones

Clara is a 5-star Destruction character with the Physical attack type and is considered the queen of counterattacks. She is anS-tier characterand one of the strongest main DPS in the game. Her kit is essentially Follow-up attack-focused, and with the release of the new relics, she has consistently become stronger. If built correctly, she can easily hyper-carry through MoC and Swarm Disaster. Here is how you can best build Clara for maximum damage output.

Who is Clara in Honkai Star Rail

Clara is a young orphaned girl from Belobog. Svarog, the ancient mech, raised her, and he and the robots became her only family. She is soft-spoken and shy, and her greatest wish is to form a family.

Clara’s Upcoming Banners and Release Date

Clara is always available in the standard banner and doesn’t have limited-time banners. If you are lucky,you can get Clara from the 5-star guaranteed pull in the beginner banner.She always features on the standard banners, so you can pull her from there or when you lose the 50-50 in the limited-time character banners.To get Clara guaranteed, you need to select her after your 300 pullsin the Normal Warp banner.

Clara’s Kit and Cycle Rotation (At Max Level)

Clara is a powerful DPS with a unique counterattack playstyle. She is very easy to play if you know her kit well. Let’s look at Clara’s kit to understand her playstyle and turn cycle rotation.

Playing Clara correctly revolves arounddrawing aggro towards her and ensuring she doesn’t die. The more she is hit, the more damage she deals. Her Ultimate and Talent decreases the damage she takes, making her much tankier. Her Ultimate also draws aggro, allowing her to mark more enemies and do more counters.

Also,Clara does the most damage when she takes her turn after all the enemies.This allows enemies to attack Clara, allowing her to mark all of them before she uses her Skill.

Her ideal turn cycle rotation isSkill > Skill > Skill > Skill, and you need to use her Ultimate whenever you can.

Relics for Best Clara Build

Clara has many good relic options, which have only grown over the past year. Here are the best Relics and stats for Clara.

The4-piece Champion of Streetwise Boxing set is perfect for Clara, as it increases her Physical Damage while also giving a 25% Attack buff at full stacks. Besides that,mixing the 2-piece Champion of Streetwise Boxing and 2-piece The Ashblazing Grand Duke can also good for Clara, as they increase both her Physical Damage and her Follow-up Attack damage.

You can also use the 4-piece Longevous Disciple, if you have good sub stats on them.

Planar Ornaments for Best Clara Build

Clara’s best Planar Ornament set is the 2-piece Inert Salsotto as it gives her a Crit and Follow-up attack buff. Rutilant Arena can also be a good alternative, as it gives a solid Crit Rate buff and good Basic and Skill attack damage increase.

Best Main and Sub Stats for Clara

When it comes to Clara’s main and sub Relic stats, you should prioritize Attack, Crit Rate and Damage andPhysical Damage boost. Besides that, stack HP and Defense as you need to keep Clara alive.Try to avoid adding Speed, as Clara outputs the most damage when she has been by all the enemies. The best Clara builds have very low Speeds.

Best Light Cones for Clara

Regarding Clara’s Light Cone in Honkai Star Rail,Something Irreplaceable is her best option.If you fail to get her signature Light Cone, you can also use Nowhere to Run, which gives a similar buff, and the F2P option On the Fall of an Aeon.

Clara Eidolons in Honkai Star Rail

Clara has some very strong Eidolons, especially her E1, E2, and E6. However, she is not a limited banner character, and pulling for Eidolons will be much harder. It’s better to leave it up for luckor bad luck, considering it requires you to missyour 50-50.

Best Team Comps for Clara

Clara’s entire kit is based on taking damage and making counterattacks. So,pairing characters with Clara, who helps her draw more aggro, is the best choice. Her best pair will beLynx, as her skill will allow Clara to receive more attacks from enemies. Similarly,March 7th‘s shield also gives aggro to the ally, so having her in the team is also a good option.

Besides that,you can pair Clara with enemy debuffers and ally amplifierslike Pela, Silver Wolf, Tingyun, and Asta. Luocha is also a good choice for a sustain as his reactive heals can come in handy when Clara is low on health.

Should You Pull for Clara in Honkai Star Rail?

Clara is a very strong character, and pulling her is tricky as she doesn’t have a limited banner.If you have Bronya, you can pick Clara from the free 300-pull Standard Banner. However, Bronya should be the priority if you don’t have her. Besides that, I suggest you refrain from chasing after Clara, as you can always get her from missing your 50-50 in the Limited banners.
