by Welt is the first character in Honkai Star Rail to belong to the Imaginary Element, one of the elements with the best Weakness Break type in the game, since this allows us to delay the action of enemies and slow them down at the same time.
His effect as a character in the Nihility path consists of slowing down the speed of enemies with both his Basic Ability and his Ultimate Ability (although the latter has a higher base chance of success), which is very broken, due to the fact that It will allow us to attack a greater number of times, this being more profitable than another character that can provide a buff to Attack or Critical Damage.
Therefore, his skill kit that allows him to Imprison enemies and Slow them down is very compatible with characters like Asta who boost us Speed (to have a greater number of actions before the enemy attacks), with Seele who can have additional turns when he defeats an enemy with any of his abilities and with Bronya who can advance the actions of allies thanks to his Basic Ability.
ATTRIBUTES OR STATS
These are the Attributes or Stats that Welt will have at the maximum level:
- HP: 1125
- ATK: 620
- DEF: 509
- SPD: 102
It certainly has some pretty good stats ; both its values in ATK, as well as in SPD and PV have quite good parameters, it only falters a bit in its DEF which is mediocre.
WELT’S SKILLS
These are all of Welt’s Skills. The numbers/percentages are what you have at the lowest level:
BASIC ATK: GRAVITY SUPPRESSION
Deal 50% Imaginary Damage to a single enemy of your choice.
BASIC ABILITY: VOID EDGE
- Basic Skill Point Consumption: 1
This Base Skill will deal three hits that will deal Imaginary Damage based on 36% of Welt’s ATK; the first hit will hit the marked target, but the other two will hit randomly.
When hitting an enemy, we will have a base chance of 65% of being able to reduce the Speed of the affected enemy by 10% for 2 turns .
ULTIMATE ABILITY: ARTIFICIAL BLACK HOLE
- Energy Cost: 120
Attacks all enemies on the field, dealing Imaginary Damage proportional to 90% of Welt’s ATK; this attack has a base 100% chance to Imprison enemies for one turn.
Enemies in this state will have their actions delayed by 32% and their Speed will be reduced by 10%.
TALENT: TIME WARP
If Welt hits an enemy that is already affected by Slow, he will deal 30% of its ATK as additional Imaginary Damage.
TECHNIQUE: GRAVITATIONAL PRISON
His Technique is quite useful, since it will allow us to create a special zone that lasts 15 seconds that reduces the movement speed of enemies by 50% and has a base chance of 100% to Imprison them for one turn.
Enemies affected by this Imprisoned state will have their actions delayed by 20% and their SPD will also be reduced by 10% (there can only be 1 special zone created by allies at a time).
ADDITIONAL SKILLS
We can unlock them in the Strokes upon reaching a certain Ascension Level.
- Ascension Level 2 – Retribution
- After using Welt’s Ultimate, there will be a base 100% chance to increase his damage by 12% for 2 turns.
- Ascension Level 4 – Judgment
- When Welt uses his Ultimate, he will immediately recover 10 energy points.
- Ascension Level 6 – Punishment
- +20% damage against enemies affected by Weakness Break .
EIDOLON
These are the improvements that the character obtains through the Eidolon:
- E1 – Legacy of Honor : If Welt uses his Ultimate Ability, he will enter an empowered state that will allow him to deal additional damage during the next two attacks made with Basic Attack or Basic Ability:
- The bonus damage for the Basic Attack will be a multiplier based on half the damage of that attack.
- The bonus damage for the Basic Ability will be a multiplier based on 80% of the basic ability’s damage.
- E2 – Star Fusion : When Welt activates his Talent (that is, when he hits an enemy that is already affected by Slow) he will recover 3 energy points.
- E3 – Prayer for Peace : +2 levels to Basic Ability and +1 to Basic Attack.
- E4 – Appeal for Justice : Welt’s Basic Ability gains a +35% base chance to reduce the SPD of the enemy hit.
- E5 – The Power of Kindness : +2 levels to Ultimate Ability and +2 to Talent.
- E6 – Luminous Perspectives : The Basic Ability now hits a total of four times instead of three.
They are not particularly good Eidolons, but their E4 is very interesting , since this will allow us to have a 100% base chance of reducing the enemy’s SPD when using our Basic Ability. This way Welt can greatly improve his role as a Debuffer and we won’t rely as much on the Ultimate to make sure we hit enemies with a SPD drop.
WELT’S BEST BUILD
In Welt there are three parameters that are crucial: we will need a high amount of Energy Recovery to make it easy to regenerate the energy necessary for his Ultimate Ability, a moderate amount of Effect Hit to miss less the chance to Slow enemies and a SPD high to act a greater number of times.
Once we’ve covered these areas properly, we can also invest a bit in upping his CRIT Damage and CRIT Chance, as Welt can do some pretty decent damage.
BEST LIGHT CONES
These are the best Light Cones for Welt ordered 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.
- 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.
- Shimmering Determination ⭐⭐⭐⭐: 60% chance on hitting an enemy to reduce their DEF by 12% for 1 turn.
- Prey Vision ⭐⭐⭐⭐: +20% Effect Hit and +24% Damage Over Time.
- 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 / CRIT Chance / CRIT Damage.
- Legs : SPEED.
- Blueprint Sphere : Imaginary Damage.
- Union Rope : Energy Recovery.
Regarding the substats:
- Effect Hit.
- Effect Break.
- SPEED
- Prob. CRIT.
- Critical damage.
Your best Artifact Set would be the following:
Glacial Forest Hunter
- 2 pieces: +10% Imaginary Damage.
- 4 pieces: Dealing damage to enemies that are affected by negative effects will increase the wearer’s CRIT Chance by 10%. If the target is affected by Prison, it will increase CRIT Damage by 20%.
Your Best Ornament Set:
Pangalactic Trading Company
- 2 pieces: +10% Effect Hit and increases ATK by 25% of your Effect Hit (max +25% ATK).
It is the set of Ornaments that rents us the most for Welt, since it will help us have more chances of affecting enemies with the Slowdown state and in turn also increases its ATK based on the amount of Effect Hit it has.
