Overview

Acheron is a 5-star character with Lightning Element & Nihility Path in Honkai Star Rail. She is a Tier S DPS character and fits well in most situations. Acheron is the first character whose ultimate doesn't require energy.

Acheron is worth pulling if you want a powerful single-target nuker she excels at dealing massive damage to individual enemies, especially if they're debuffed. And if you have a developed nihility team her synergies will make your team much stronger overall.

Best Acheron Team Build

Acheron Best can be built in different ways. Down below are a few best team-build options that you can choose.

Team 1

_Acheron

_Sparkle

_Blackswan

_{Fu xuan}

Acheron (Main DPS): Acheron builds power by watching others weaken enemies. Whenever someone applies a debuff to a foe, she gains a "Slashed Dream" point. She also marks that enemy with a "Crimson Knot". After 9 points, she can unleash her Ultimate. The more "Crimson Knot" stacks on the main target, the harder her Ultimate hits.

Blackswan (SUB DPS): Black Swan shines against enemies already burning, bleeding, or shocked (DoT effects). Landing attacks on these foes triggers "Sacrament," a special buff. The more you attack these weakened enemies, the more "Arcana stacks" you build. Having at least 7 stacks makes Black Swan even stronger, and her ultimate attack can extend how long these stacks last!

Sparkle (Support): Sparkle is a support character who helps her allies use more powerful skills. She can give them extra skill points and make sure they have room to use them. Sparkle's special ability gives allies extra power for a short time and lets them act faster in battle.

Fu Xuan (Support): Fu Xuan is a protective character who specializes in keeping her team safe. She can reduce the damage her allies take, making them much harder to defeat. Her ultimate skill is powerful – it hurts all enemies while also healing her teammates. This makes her a versatile fighter who can both protect and attack.

Team 2

_Acheron

_Sparkle

_{Silver Wolf}

_{Fu xuan}

Silver Wolf (Support): Silver Wolf can weaken enemies in two ways. Her skill might lower their resistance to Quantum damage. Also, her normal attacks sometimes leave 'bugs' on enemies that make them less resistant to physical attacks.

Team 3

_Acheron

_Sparkle

_Pela

_{Fu xuan}

Pela (Support): Pela weakens her enemies in two ways: her ultimate skill lowers the defense of all foes at once, while her passive ability lowers the defense of a single enemy to help her attack first.

Team 4

_Acheron

_Sparkle

_Pela

_Welt

Welt (SUB DPS): Welt brings the pain! This damage dealer (DPS) can also control the battlefield. His ultimate attack creates a mini black hole that traps enemies, slowing them down and making them wait their turn. This even works on powerful bosses mid-attack, giving Welt a chance to get another hit in himself!

Team 5

_Acheron

_Kafka

_Blackswan

_Gallagher

Kafka (SUB DPS): Kafka is your Sub damage dealer. Her ultimate ability inflicts a 'burn' effect on enemies, causing them to take damage over time. Her regular skill then does extra damage to any enemy suffering from this 'burn'.

Gallagher (Healer): Gallagher's Ultimate makes enemies take more damage when they're weakened, and also lets your allies heal themselves slightly every time they attack. Additionally, Gallagher's next basic attack becomes stronger and the enemy he hits will do less damage.
