Where these rankings come fromThe light cone order, relic sets and stat priorities on this tab are prydwen.gg’s, measured in play and rephrased. Relative damage figures are ratios against the bottom of each ranking, not absolute numbers, and each one holds only for the superimposition and team its row states.

Relics

Eagle of Twilight Line, Cavern Relic set | Honkai: Star Rail
CoreEagle of Twilight Line

Allows characters with accessible Ultimates to reach higher Speed (and cycle) breakpoints compared to just stacking Speed. Strongest on characters with powerful ultimate related effects or who can access their ultimate at least once every 3 (but ideally 2) actions. Particularly strong when combined with other action advancement effects. The additional actions from this set are particularly powerful when playing Jiaoqiu alongside Acheron who benefits from the increased debuff application they provide.

2PCIncreases Wind DMG by 10%.

4PCAfter the wearer uses their Ultimate, their action is Advanced Forward by 25%.

Planar ornaments

Sprightly Vonwacq, Planar Ornament set | Honkai: Star Rail
CoreSprightly Vonwacq

Incredibly strong option for buff/debuff based characters. The advance from this set allows the wearer to apply their buffs/debuffs before the rest of the team acts, accelerate rotations, allows access to ultimates closer to the start of the fight and also grants Energy Regen. A valuable stat for many supports.

2PCIncreases the wearer's Energy Regeneration Rate by 5%. When the wearer's SPD reaches 120 or higher, the wearer's action is Advanced Forward by 40% immediately upon entering battle.
