Honkai: Star Rail – Bronya build and ascension guide
The best Honkai: Star Rail Bronya build concentrates on enhancing her supporting abilities, allowing you to boost your allies with stronger buffs and activating your Ultimate more frequently. Bronya is the heir to the leader of Belobog, commands the Wind DMG Type, and follows the Path of The Harmony.

Bronya’s Skill, Combat Redeployment, increases an allied character’s damage for one turn, dispels one debuff from them, and lets them take their next turn immediately after Bronya. Combat Redeployment offers immense value, as it lets you build up tempo and push forward actions, be they an attack or an urgent heal.
Her Ultimate, The Belobog March, boosts the ATK of all allies by a set value and their CRIT DMG based on Bronya’s CRIT DMG for two turns. Bronya’s Ultimate is a fantastic tool for preparing a turn of all-out offense.
Bronya’s Eidolons, which you gain after pulling her repeatedly, are brilliant as well: They give her a 50% chance to regain a Skill Point after Skill usage (Level 1) and add a 30% SPD boost to her Skill’s effects (Level 2). They enable her to launch follow-up attacks as well (Level 4), slightly boosting her own damage output. Finally, her Eidolons increase the duration of the buffs from her Skill by another turn (Level 6), allowing her to spread the effects out to other allies or attack more often by herself.
Honkai: Star Rail – Bronya: best Light Cones
Bronya’s signature Light Cone, which is called But the Battle Isn’t Over, perfectly complements her kit.
It boosts the wearer’s Energy Regeneration, which allows them to activate their Ultimate more often. In addition, their Ultimate then recovers a Skill Point when used on an ally, which is always the case for Bronya. The Light Cone also allows the wearer’s Skill to provide the ally acting next with a damage buff for one turn – and since Bronya basically controls who gets to go next, this allows you to get that buff exactly where it needs to go.
Best Light Cones for Bronya:
- But the Battle Isn’t Over (5-Star)
- Earthly Escapade (5-Star)
- Carve the Moon, Weave the Clouds (4-Star)
- Past and Future (4-Star)
Honkai: Star Rail – Bronya: best Relics
Energy Regeneration, CRIT DMG, and SPD are the key stats you want to look out for on Bronya, so your Relic choices should always consider these first and foremost. It took a long time for the game to add a Relic Set that feels really good on Bronya, but Sacerdos’ Relived Ordeal was very much worth the wait. You should also get Effect RES as a sub stat to activate Broken Keel – it’s a great supporting set that helps keep Bronya alive. Additional HP and DEF are recommended to keep her in the battle as well.
Best Relic Sets for Bronya:
- Sacerdos’ Relived Ordeal (4) – +6% SPD, +18% CRIT DMG for allies targeted by the wearer’s Skill or Ultimate for two turns (can stack up to two times).
- Eagle of the Twilight Line (4) – +10% Wind Damage, wearer’s next action is advanced forward by 25% after their Ultimate.
- Musketeer of Wild Wheat (4) – +12% Attack, +10% Normal Attack Damage, and +6% Speed.
Best Planar Ornaments for Bronya:
- Broken Keel (2) – +10% Effect RES, +10% CRIT DMG for all allies if the wearer’s Effect RES surpasses 30%.
- Fleet of the Ageless (2) – +12% maximum HP, +8% Attack for all allies when the wearer’s Speed is 120 or higher.

Honkai: Star Rail – Bronya: best teams
Bronya remains a fantastic Support character, especially for hypercarry teams that focus all of their efforts on a single Main DPS.
- Seele (Main DPS), Bronya (Support), Asta (Support), Huohuo (Support)
This team focuses on maximizing the damage output of Seele in various ways. Bronya can buff her allies’ ATK and CRIT DMG in addition to manipulating the turn order in the team’s favor, which enables Seele to get into action again much quicker.
Asta is another solid Support character, as she can boost allied characters’ SPD, allowing Seele to gain even more momentum.
Finally, Huohuo is this team’s ideal sustain unit, as she can provide further offensive buffs and – crucially – additional Energy Regeneration to allow everyone to get their Ultimates charged more quickly.
