Misha’s abilities and team role in Honkai Star Rail 2.0

In Honkai Star Rail, Misha is a 4-star DPS character treading on the Destruction Path. He is capable of dealing significant damage to his opponents.

Misha’s abilities are detailed below:

  • Basic ATK: Deals Ice damage to a single adversary.
  • Skill: Deals Ice damage to three adjacent opponents and increases Hits Per Action of Misha’s next Ultimate by one simultaneously.
  • Ultimate: Upon activation, deals Ice damage to a single enemy with one hit and unleashes the rest of the hits to a random opponent. This attack also has a chance to Freeze the opponents for a turn. While the opponents are Frozen, they will take additional Ice damage that scales with Misha’s ATK at the start of their turn. This ability has three Hits Per Action by default.
  • Passive Talent: Whenever an ally consumes a Skill Point, Misha’s Ultimate gains a Hits Per Action and three energy simultaneously.
  • Technique: Upon activation, Misha creates a field that lasts for 15 seconds. Adversaries inside the field will be inflicted with Dream Prison and Misha’s next Ultimate’s Hits Per Action gets boosted by two.

Misha’s team role in Honkai Star Rail

Misha is an Ice Destruction character in Honkai Star Rail. He can easily fit into numerous team compositions as a sub-DPS unit.

Misha’s kit allows him to become more powerful over time as his Talent increases his Hits Per Action and replenishes Energy each time an ally uses a Skill Point. Therefore, when he is paired with other characters who consume a considerable amount of Skill Points, he could be deadly.


Misha is definitely worth pulling for

Summoning Misha during Honkai Star Rail 2.0 is a no-brainer, as he is an exceptional DPS character. As mentioned earlier, he can fit various team compositions. Characters like Dan Heng Imbibitor Lunae and other DPS units with significant Skill Point consumption have an excellent synergy with him.

If you don't have characters with heavy Skill Point consumption, Misha will still be useful as long as you pair him with support characters who can buff SPD. That said, you can pull for any character as long as you choose to overlook the title’s meta.
