Honkai Star Rail Castorice build and teams

This Honkai: Star Rail Castorice build guide will feel familiar if you've built Mydei or Blade. This 5-star Quantum Remembrance character, true to her nature, focuses on depleting the life force of enemies and herself. She thrives on high HP but requires a multi-target healer for optimal performance. While Castorice possesses a helpful revive talent, sustained survival necessitates consistent healing.

This guide covers her optimal Light Cones and Relics, along with team composition suggestions.

Honkai: Star Rail Castorice Light Cones

Remembrance Light Cones remain scarce in HSR 3.2, limiting Castorice's options. Her signature Light Cone, Make Farewells More Beautiful, boosts max HP by 30% and grants the Death Flower effect upon HP loss (hers or her memosprite's). Death Flower lasts two turns, granting 30% damage reduction to the wearer and sprite. Castorice's Bone Dragon memosprite drains HP, easily triggering Death Flower.

This HP boost enhances attack scaling, while the enemy defense shred significantly increases damage output. However, contrary to some opinions, Castorice performs well without her signature cone. Sweat Now, Cry Less, the battle pass Remembrance Light Cone, is readily obtainable and offers valuable benefits. It increases crit rate and, while the sprite is active, boosts damage for both the character and sprite. It requires a premium battle pass, but if you're a regular subscriber, it's a worthwhile investment.

The only other viable Remembrance option is the 3-star Reminiscence, granting commemoration stacks at the start of each turn, boosting damage by 8/12% per stack (up to four stacks). This flat damage increase perfectly complements Castorice.

Avoid attack-focused cones like Genius' Greetings; Memory's Curtain offers limited benefit. Victory in a Blink, the free Forgotten Hall option, isn't ideal unless crit damage is your sole focus, as its party-wide damage boost only activates with sprite abilities targeting allies, which Castorice's dragon doesn't do.

Honkai: Star Rail Castorice Relics

As of HSR 3.2, Castorice utilizes two Relic sets: Poet of Mourning Collapse and Longevous Disciple.

Poet of Mourning Collapse:

• 2-piece: 10% Quantum damage increase.
• 4-piece: 8% speed reduction. If pre-battle speed is below 110/95, crit rate increases by 20/32% for both wearer and memosprite.

Castorice's passive increases speed, allowing for the 4-piece bonus if speed remains below 100.

Longevous Disciple: (Alternative)

• 2-piece: 12% HP increase.
• 4-piece: 8% crit rate increase for two turns upon taking or consuming HP (stacks twice).

While the crit rate buff is lower, the HP boost is advantageous. Mixing two-piece sets of Longevous and Poet, or Poet and Genius of Brilliant Stars, are also viable options.

Bone Collection's Serene Demesne is a natural choice, boosting HP and crit damage. Alternatively, Wondrous BananAmusement Park significantly increases crit damage, especially with the memosprite active.

Fleet of the Ageless provides HP and an attack buff when speed reaches 120, achievable with her passive or ally support.

Honkai: Star Rail Castorice Stats

Unlike typical DPS characters, Castorice prioritizes HP above all else, as her attacks scale with HP, not ATK. Crit rate and crit damage are secondary. Due to potential Relic set bonuses, focus on HP for main stats. Minimize speed if using Poet of Mourning Collapse.

In short:

• Body: HP%
• Feet: HP%
• Orb: HP% or Quantum DMG%
• Rope: HP%

Prioritize HP%, Crit Rate, and Crit DMG as substats.

Honkai: Star Rail Castorice Teams

While teams featuring Sunday, Tribbie, and Mydei synergize exceptionally well, other options exist. Ideal team composition includes:

• A frequent healer or high HP consumer.
• A support to shred enemy defense, boost damage (not ATK), or increase crit stats.
• A second support or sub-DPS.

Ruan Mei (free in HSR 3.2) and the free Remembrance Trailblazer are excellent choices. Robin's flat damage buff and ultimate also work well. Pela is a top-tier debuffer, but Black Swan, Silver Wolf, Fugue, and Jiaoqiu are alternatives. Blade, Mydei, and Jingliu are sub-DPS options for HP consumption. Luocha, Gallagher, and Huohuo are strong healer choices.

What Tier is Castorice in Honkai: Star Rail?

Castorice is S-tier, with some limitations. Her reliance on her signature Light Cone and her unique ultimate charging mechanic restrict team flexibility. However, her high damage scaling, sprite's All-Type Res Pen, and ease of building make her a powerful asset, especially given the current limited options for exploiting Quantum weaknesses.
