Sushang is a 4-star character from Honkai Star Rail that belongs to the Hunting Way, so she is oriented to cause a lot of damage in Single Target and the truth is that she is a character that stands out a lot in this role.
He is a character that stands out for his high damage even belonging to the Way of the Hunt, I mean that even among this type of characters he stands out in his damage. The truth is that at the beginning I didn’t pay much attention to it and I ended up giving it a chance; Good thing I did, because he has surprised me a lot.
He won’t be at the level of characters like Seele , of course, but the truth is that he seems to me one of the best characters in the Hunt among the 4 stars; He seems to me even better than Dan Heng , which is not really bad either. The case, that I bring you as always the analysis of this character and his Build with his best Cones of Light, Artifacts, Ornaments and that kind of thing. Let’s go there!
ATTRIBUTES OR STATS
These are the Attributes or Stats that Sushang will have at the maximum level:
- HP: 917
- ATK: 564
- DEF: 418
- SPD: 107
Its Attributes are not really the best… It has very low HP and both its ATK and DEF are also low (not as much as its HP at least, which would be the lowest it has). The good thing is that in the face of the SPEED it is well covered , which is one of the most interesting statistics in the game.
SUSHANG’S ABILITIES
These are all of Sushang’s Skills. The numbers/percentages are what you have at the lowest level:
BASIC ATK: CLOUD KNIGHT SWORD TECHNIQUE – STELLAR HALO
Deal 50% Physical Damage to a single enemy of your choice.
BASIC SKILL: CLOUD KNIGHT SWORD TECHNIQUE – FALL
- Basic Skill Point Consumption: 1
Deals 105% Physical Damage to an enemy and has a 33% chance to deal an additional 50% Physical Damage. If the enemy is under the Weakness Break state , the additional damage is guaranteed.
ULTIMATE ABILITY: FORM OF TAIXU – HERALD OF DAWN
- Energy Cost: 120
Deal 195% Physical Damage to an enemy and advance their next action by 100%. It also increases its ATK by 18% and will give the Basic Skill 2 extra chances to proc extra Physical Damage , but these extra chances deal 50% of the original damage.
TALENT: FLOWING EDGE
Breaking an enemy’s debuff grants Sushang +15% SPD for one turn.
TECHNIQUE: CLOUD KNIGHT SWORD TECHNIQUE – HASTE
Upon entering battle, perform an attack that deals 80% Physical Damage to all enemies.
ADDITIONAL SKILLS
We can unlock them in the Strokes upon reaching a certain Ascension Level.
- Ascension Level 2 – Spring Birth
- When Sushang’s HP is at 50% or less, he will have less chance of being attacked by an enemy.
- Ascension Tier 4 – Foe Scare
- +2% to the damage of the additional damage of the Basic Ability when activated. It can stack 10 times.
- Ascension Level 6 – Vanquisher
- If there are enemies on the field affected by Weakness Break and we use their Attack or Basic Ability, Sushang’s next action is advanced by 15%.
EIDOLON
These are the improvements that the character obtains through the Eidolon:
- E1 – Easy Cut : When using the Basic Ability on an enemy in the Weakness Break state you recover 1 Basic Ability Point.
- E2 – Trained Body : When dealing the bonus damage with the Basic Skill, Sushang takes 20% less damage for one turn.
- E3 – Ancient Sword Style : +2 levels to Ultimate Ability and +2 to Talent.
- E4 – Keen Mind : +40% Rupture Effect.
- E5 – Will of Taixu : +2 levels to Basic Ability and +1 to Basic Attack.
- E6 – Like Water : The Talent’s SPD increase can be stacked up to 2 times and at the start of the battle Sushang will gain a stack of this effect.
They are some Eidolons that are quite good except for the second one since it is more of a defensive nature. The first one is probably best for being able to save Basic Ability Points when an enemy has the Weakness Break state (so you can save them for other characters). The E4 is very good since it is a character in which we are quite interested in making breaks and the E6 will give us more SPD, one of the best stats in the game.
SUSHANG’S BEST BUILD
A typical Build for a common DPS character, the only thing is that this particular one will benefit more from the Rupture Effect than other similar characters.
BEST LIGHT CONES
These are the best Light Cones for Sushang 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.
- At Night ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: +18% Critical Chance. For every 10 points of Speed that its wielder has once the 100 border is exceeded, the damage of the Basic Attack and Basic Ability will increase by 6% while the Critical Damage of the Ultimate Ability will increase by 12% (this effect is can stack 6 times max).
- Game of Swords ⭐⭐⭐⭐: When the bearer of this Cone of Light hits the same target multiple times, the damage dealt to that enemy is increased by 8%. This effect can be stacked up to five times and will be lost if we change targets.
- Only Silence Remains ⭐⭐⭐⭐: +16% to Attack. If there are only 2 or fewer enemies on the battlefield, the Critical Chance is increased by 12%.
- Subscribe to my Channel ⭐⭐⭐⭐: +24% damage to Basic ATK and Basic Ability. +24% additional if energy is maxed out.
- Star Cruiser ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: +8% Critical Chance and the effect is doubled if we attack an enemy that has half its Life or less. Each time its wearer kills an enemy, its Attack will increase by 20% for 2 turns.
- Return to Darkness ⭐⭐⭐⭐: +12% Critical Chance. After landing a critical hit there is a 16% chance to nullify a positive effect the enemy has (this effect can only be activated once per attack).
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 : CRIT Chance / CRIT Damage.
- Legs : SPEED.
- Blueprint Sphere : Physical Damage.
- Binding Rope : Energy / ATK Recovery %.
Substats:
- Prob. CRIT.
- CRIT Damage
- SPEED
- ATK %.
- Break effect.
His best Artifact Set is as follows:
Street Boxing Champion
- 2 pieces: +10% Physical Damage.
- 4 pieces: +5% ATK when attacking or receiving an attack. It can stack 5 times.
And now its best Ornament Sets, we bring you two different options:
Fleet of the Eternals
- 2 pieces: +12% ATK and +12% bonus ATK if character has 120 or more SPD.
Reaching those 120 SPD will be very easy with this character, especially considering that his thing would be to put this attribute on the boots. In the process we will obtain a very good amount of ATK that will be great for us to do more damage.
inert salsotto
- 2 pieces: +8% to CRIT Chance. When the amount of CRIT Chance of the wearer of this set of ornaments reaches 50% or more, the damage dealt by the Ultimate and Extra Attacks are increased by 15%.
A less interesting option since we will not take advantage of the bonus to Additional Attacks (additional damage is not the same as additional attack), otherwise it is quite good. I recommend more Fleet of the Eternals, but it’s not a bad option.
