by Silver Wolf is a 5-star character from Honkai Star Rail that belongs to the path of Nihility and the truth is that in my opinion he is one of the best characters on this path, which, as you surely know, stands out for its good application Debuffs enemies .
As with the vast majority of the characters in this path, this one applies different debuffs to reduce the abilities of enemies, something that is always great. But, what makes it stand out from the others or at least makes it unique is the fact that it is capable of adding an additional weakness (which will be one of the ones your characters have) to the enemies.
But it is that in addition to this and applying stat reductions, he also has a high capacity to do damage and through the Eidolons he is a character that scales crazy. So we are going, a highly recommended character in my humble opinion.
ATTRIBUTES OR STATS
These are the Attributes or Stats that Silver Wolf will have at the maximum level:
- HP: 1047
- ATK: 601
- DEF: 460
- SPD: 107
The truth is that at a statistical level he is a character that is quite balanced , he does not have bad values in any attribute, although it is also true that he does not stand out too much in any of them except for Speed and Attack, which are both quite good despite not be very tall either.
SILVER WOLF SKILLS
These are all of Silver Wolf’s Skills. The numbers/percentages are what you have at the lowest level:
BASIC ATK: SYSTEM ALERT
Deal 50% Quantum Damage to a single enemy of your choice.
BASIC ABILITY: ALLOW CHANGES?
- Basic Skill Point Consumption: 1
It deals 98% Quantum Damage to the enemy and best of all, it will add a weakness to the target to one of the elements that one of your characters has; only one additional weakness can be added to each enemy. It will also reduce their resistance to said element by 20% for 2 turns, but this will not apply if the enemy already had that weakness by default.
However, it also has a 100% chance to reduce all enemy elemental resistances by 7.5% again for 2 turns.
This is very key since, after all, it is a game whose main mechanics revolve around hitting enemies with the elements to which they are weak in order to take advantage of the benefits provided by Weakness Break (which is very good ) . and the fact of having it can make some battles much easier.
Something important to keep in mind is that if we attack an enemy with the Basic Ability to which we have already added a weakness, we will change it, so it does not pay to use the Basic Ability on the same enemy unless you are looking to precisely put a different weakness (as long as it is from an element that one of your characters has). His thing would be to use it on different enemies and repeat on the same one if the effect expires, if you are going to hit an enemy that already has the Basic Ability and you do not want to change the added weakness, use the Ultimate or the Basic ATK better.
ULTIMATE ABILITY: ACCOUNT BANNED
- Energy Cost: 120
Deals 228% Quantum Damage to an enemy and has a 85% chance to reduce their Defense by 36% for 3 turns.
TALENT: WAITING FOR THE PROGRAM TO RESPOND…
When attacking in any way there will be a 60% chance to apply some bugs that will reduce the stats of the enemies. You can skip any of these:
- -5% ATK.
- -4% DEF
- -3% SPD
There can only be 5 errors simultaneously and these last for 3 turns.
TECHNIQUE: FORCED CLOSING OF THE PROCESS
Upon entering battle, it attacks all enemies with Quantum Damage, reduces the Endurance of all enemies by ignoring their weaknesses, and if it causes any Weakness Break, it will apply “Entanglement”. Very good technique.
ADDITIONAL SKILLS
We can unlock them in the Strokes upon reaching a certain Ascension Level.
- Ascension Level 2 – Generation
- The errors with which we reduce the stats of the enemies last 1 more turn and there is a 65% chance of implanting one of these when Breaking the Weakness of an enemy.
- Ascension Level 4 – Injection
- Increases the duration of added debuffs by 1 turn.
- Ascension Level 6 – Side Note
- If the enemy has 3 or more debuffs when hit with the Basic Ability, their damage RES is reduced by 3%.
EIDOLON
These are the improvements that the character obtains through the Eidolon:
- E1 – Social Engineering : Silver Wolf recovers 7 energy points for each debuff on the enemy he ults hit with up to a maximum of 35 energy points.
- E2 – Red Zombie : Reduces the RES to Effect of enemies by 20%.
- E3 – Payload : +2 levels to Basic Skill and +2 to Talent.
- E4 – Bounce Attack : The Ultimate deals an additional 20% Quantum Damage for each debuff the enemy you hit has (max 5 stacks).
- E5 – Brute Force : +2 levels to Ultimate Ability and +1 to Basic Attack.
- E6 – Like Water : Increases the damage Silver Wolf causes by 20% for each debuff the enemy has up to a maximum of +100% damage.
The truth is that his Eidolons are amazing , I think that each of them improves his performance a lot and the E6 practically doubles its damage. In fact, imagine, already with E4 we double the damage of the Ultimate, so if we also double its damage itself (assuming that the enemy has the 5 debuffs , something not very complicated if we go with it), well, you’ll be done an idea of the mamorro, especially considering that his Ultimate does not exactly hit soft.
The E1 is very key to lower the cost of his Definitive, the E2 will help us apply our debuffs more easily… That said, incredible Eidolones.
SILVER WOLF’S BEST BUILD
A fairly standard Build for Nihility characters since they benefit a lot from the Effect Hit (the more they have, the less they will fail when applying the debuffs ) and in their case trying not to neglect the damage since it is not precisely scarce in this sense; quite similar to Welt , to give an example.
BEST LIGHT CONES
These are the best Light Cones for Silver Wolf sorted from best to worst (they all come highly recommended anyway) and trying to add both 5-star and 4-star options. Here we will list the effects in Level 1 Overlay.
- Incessant Rain ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: +24% Effect Hit, +12 Critical Chance when attacking an enemy that has 3 or more debuffs and when using Basic or Ultimate Ability, we will have a 100% chance to apply a bug an enemy hit that will increase the damage the enemy takes by 12% for 1 turn; cannot be stacked, only 1 per enemy.
- In the Name of the World ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: +24% damage to enemies that have a debuff and when using the Basic Ability increases the Effect Hit of said Ability and gains +24% ATK.
- Before the Tutorial Mission Starts ⭐⭐⭐⭐: +20% Effect Hit and the user generates 4 energy when attacking an enemy that has aDefense reduction debuff applied.
- Shimmering Determination ⭐⭐⭐⭐: 60% chance on hitting an enemy to reduce their DEF by 12% for 1 turn.
- Good Night, Sleep Well ⭐⭐⭐⭐: +12% damage for each debuff of the enemy you hit. Stacks 3 times.
BEST ARTIFACTS AND ORNAMENTS
We will start with the Artifacts and Ornaments. These are the statistics that we recommend for each piece in order to maximize its damage.
- Torso : Effect hit.
- Legs : SPEED.
- Plane Sphere : Quantum Damage.
- Binding Rope : Energy / ATK Recovery %.
Substats:
- Prob. CRIT.
- CRIT Damage
- Effect Hit.
- SPEED
- ATK %.
His best Artifact Set is as follows:
Shining Star Genie
- 2 pieces : +10% Quantum Damage.
- 4 pieces : When the bearer of this set of artifacts attacks an enemy, ignore 10% of their Defense, if said enemy has a weakness for Quantum Element, an additional 10% of their Defense will be ignored.
And now his best Set of Ornaments:
Pangalactic Trading Company
- 2 pieces: +10% Effect Hit and increases ATK by 25% of your Effect Hit (max +25% ATK).
Thus, we will also get even more out of the Torso Effect Hit and Substats .
BEST TEAMS
We will give some examples of equipment and recommended routes , but in the end what you should do is take into account the enemy’s weaknesses when building.
Composition Single Target
Against a single enemy, ideal for bosses:
- 1 Hunting: Seele or Sushang .

- 1 Conservation/1 Abundance: Natasha or Gepard .
Multi-Target Composition
For the other types of combat (against several enemies being generalists):

- 1 Conservation/1 Abundance: Bailu or March Seven .
ASCENSION MATERIALS
These are the Traces and Character Ascension Materials that Sushang needs:
