Honkai Star Rail support character tier list (June 2024)

The turn-based combat system in Honkai Star Rail favors those who use support units, as these characters can extend their abilities to improve the offensive and defensive capabilities of an entire setup. From healers to debuffers, this title has quite a few different characters to choose from in this category when it comes to building a team in June 2024.

Therefore, it is important to rank each support unit in a tier based on their overall kit design and combat effectiveness. This will help determine which fighters are worth using on the battlefield.

The image above shows a tier list featuring every support character in Honkai Star Rail as of June 2024. It is worth noting that their combat effectiveness without any Eidolon has been considered for this ranking since most players will not have multiple copies of these entities. This ensures fair judgment, as their performance can change drastically with different Eidolons.

Here are more reasons to justify each of their placements on the tier list.

SS tier

Only the units that are highly versatile in any team composition deserve a spot in the SS tier. Here are some of the supports that have flawless character design and sought-after abilities to be placeholders for the highest rank:

• Fu Xuan
• Luocha
• Ruan Mei
• Bronya
• Silver Wolf

Ruan Mei and Bronya can be used for almost every team in Honkai Star Rail. They possess strong buffing abilities that can easily send allies’ combat potential into overdrive.

This tier also comprises strong defensive units like Fu Xuan and Luocha, who are among the most popular picks in the Memory of Chaos, this game's most hardcore content.

S tier

S-tier units can yield promising results in battle, but they are often overshadowed by characters in the SS-tier. Here are some support characters that require a bit more gear investment to be effective during combat.

• Tingyun
• Pela
• Lynx
• Gepard
• Huohuo

Tingyun, in particular, can rival some of the top-tier Harmony characters in Honkai Star Rail as long as she is equipped with good Relic sets and Light Cone. Even Pela has similar potential, and she serves as a direct alternative for Silver Wolf in various team compositions.

A tier

The A tier is reserved for individuals who are a bit underpowered on their own. However, they can be exceptional candidates for any setup when you acquire their Eidolons.

• Hanya
• Asta
• March 7th
• Preservation Trailblazer
• Bailu

Despite being a 5-star healer, Bailu has been assigned a low rank as most of her potential is locked behind her Eidolons. The same also applies to March 7th and Asta, as they struggle to shine in the end-game content.

B tier

Finally, the following B-tier support units are just underwhelming to use in their current state. Here are the characters in this tier:

• Yukong
• Natasha
• Luka

All of these units have fallen off the combat meta and are not worth using unless you like their character designs. Yukong, in particular, can be somewhat of an exception, as she gets much stronger once you acquire multiple copies of her.
