Note: Some aspects of this article are subjective and solely reflect the writer’s opinions.
Best Relic sets for Rappa in Honkai Star Rail
Since Rappa is a DPS character in Honkai Star Rail and specializes in dealing Break Effect damage, you need to give her a Relic set that synergizes well with her abilities.
Here are two Relic sets that pair well with Rappa:
- 4-piece Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge
- 4-piece Thief of Shooting Meteor
The 4-piece Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge set grants Rappa a decent amount of Break Effect stats while also boosting her BE and Super BE (Break Effect) damage. Additionally, it helps the Galaxy Ranger neglect a portion of the opponents’ DEF while hitting them.
The 4-piece Thief of Shooting Meteor set is good for Rappa as most of her abilities scale with the Break Effect stat. Since both the 2- and 3-piece set effect grants a considerable amount of BE to the character, it boosts her outgoing damage.
This set is also good on Rappa because she can regenerate ultimate Energy whenever she inflicts the Weakness Break status effect.
Best Light Cones for Rappa in Honkai Star Rail
Rappa is a 5-star unit, so her signature Light Cone, Ninjutsu Inscription: Dazzling Evilbreaker, is her best LC option.
Since there are not many Erudition LCs that synergizes well with the BE stat, you can use the following with Rappa:
- After the Charmony Fall
- Make the World Clamor
Best Planar Ornament for Rappa in Honkai Star Rail
As for Rappa’s Planar Ornament recommendation, there is only one that unleashes her full potential:
- Talia: Kingdom of Banditry
Currently, you can farm this set by completing the Smelted Heart challenge over and over again from the Divergent Universe Ornament Extraction section. The set grants a considerable amount of Break Effect stat to its wearer, which Rappa needs to deal absurd damage.
What stats and Traces should you prioritize for Rappa?
While building Rappa, you should be looking for the following stats:
