Honkai: Star Rail - The Herta Complete Guide

If you've been enjoying the lore of Honkai: Star Rail from the beginning, you likely already know about the presence of high-powered beings known as the Emanators. This title belongs to the people who've acquired the permission to draw power from their path by the Aeon themselves.

Type	Name	Synergy With The Herta
Relics	Scholar Lost in Erudition	This serves as the best in slot set for The Herta as it not only provides her with some Crit Rate, but also increases her Skill and Ultimate DMG. It increases her Skill DMG further after using her Ultimate.
	Hunter of Glacial Forest	If you're still early in the game, you can use this set as a replacement until you get her best one as it gives you Crit DMG after using the Ultimate, which works with her buffed Skill.
Planar Ornaments	Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm	You have to use another Erudition character with The Herta, which works perfectly for this set as you'll get some extra ATK and Crit Rate.
	Sigonia, the Unclaimed Desolation	Since The Herta is made for defeating multiple enemies at the same time in the Pure Fiction mode, you can also use this set on her. The best part is that both these sets can be farmed in the same domain.

The Herta Relic Stat Priority

Apart from the bonuses above, here are the relic stats you'll be looking for as you farm for The Herta:

Type	Main Stat Priority	Sub Stat Priority
Head	HP	Crit Rate/DMG > SPD > ATK Percent
Hands	ATK	Crit Rate/DMG > SPD > ATK Percent
Body	Crit DMG	Crit Rate > SPD > ATK Percent
Feet	SPD	Crit Rate/DMG > ATK Percent
Planar Sphere	Ice DMG Bonus	Crit Rate/DMG > SPD > ATK Percent
Link Rope	ATK Percent	Crit Rate/DMG > SPD

Best The Herta Light Cones

Thankfully, you have quite a lot of choices when it comes to The Herta light cones:

Into the Unreachable Vein	Her signature light cone is unsurprisingly tailor-made for her, giving her even more free Crit Rate that stacks with her relic set bonuses. Other than that, it also gives you some massive Skill and Ultimate DMG while consistently regenerating Skill Points.
Eternal Calculus	This will be your second-best choice on The Herta, and it's also the F2P-friendly one. It gives you up to 52 percent ATK bonus and 16 percent SPD as long as you're fighting multiple enemies.
Before Dawn	You can also use this light cone to get a decent bit of Crit DMG and Ultimate/Skill DMG, but you won't be able to make use of its follow-up damage bonus.
Geniuses' Repose	Since you'll consistently defeat smaller enemies with The Herta, this one can give you a massive ATK and Crit DMG boost with it.
The Day The Cosmos Fell	Finally, if you don't have any of the above light cones, you can use this F2P one for some free ATK and Crit DMG on her.

Best The Herta Team Compositions

Once you've fully built The Herta with her best light cones and relics available to you, the next step is to choose the right team. Thankfully, one of The Herta's best teams involves a bunch of F2P-friendly characters:

Best Herta Team

• The Herta
• Jade
• Sunday
• Huohuo

If you want to get the most value from The Herta's kit, this team is just for you as long as you can manage to get all the characters in it. Jade was the one Erudition character that brought the rest of the units from this path into the meta, and she also complements The Herta quite well as the constant AoE attacks let her launch a ton of follow-ups.

Jade's follow-up attacks also target all the enemies on the field, which in turn helps Herta regenerate extra Energy. Apart from that, Sunday can consistently boost The Herta's turn while also giving her a massive Crit DMG boost, which works well with all the free Crit Rate she gets from her relics and light cones.

Finally, apart from being a great sustainer, Huohuo can also help Herta by giving her some free ATK and much-needed Energy Regeneration.

Herta F2P Team

• The Herta
• Herta
• Remembrance Trailblazer/Robin
• Aventurine

While this might be called the F2P team, it isn't any less powerful than her main team. In fact, this team might be stronger than the one above in some cases like if you're fighting in the Pure Fiction game mode. You'll consistently take enemies below 50 percent HP in this mode, which lets four-star Herta perform a ton of follow-up attacks.

Each one of these extra attacks regenerates Energy for The Herta and Robin while also getting extra charges to Mem. Finally, Aventurine's job here is to not only shield his allies but also allow Robin to get her Ultimate back more easily. This team can easily destroy any type of endgame mode once you have all the characters built in it.

The Herta Traces Overview And Priority

The last important bit after you get a new character is understanding how they work. You can equip them with the best relics, light cones, and team members, but if you don't know how to use them, you won't get very far. Thankfully, The Herta isn't particularly hard to understand:

• Essentially, Herta can get stacks on the enemies whenever she or her teammates attack them, and these stacks can build up to 42.
• After triggering your Ultimate, Herta gets an instant turn and her next Skill gets buffed. This buffed skill consumes all the stacks on the enemies and deals heavy damage, which increases based on the number of stacks consumed.

With the right build and team, you can easily see The Herta dealing over a million damage to the enemies even with an F2P light cone. If you want to see this damage, you'd want to upgrade her Skill first, followed by the Ultimate and then the Talent. You don't have to upgrade her Basic Attack since you'll never use it.

Of course, you'll also have to unlock all her bonus abilities and smaller nodes of stats whenever possible.
