Honkai: Star Rail – Aglaea build and ascension guide

Weave a deadly fate for your enemies with the best Honkai: Star Rail Aglaea build. This lethal damage dealer follows the Path of The Remembrance and punishes her enemies with Lightning DMG.

Aglaea’s Skill, Rise, Exalted Renown, summons her Memosprite, Garmentmaker, enabling it to take action immediately. If Garmentmaker is already on the field, the Skill will instead heal its HP. While Garmentmaker is active, Aglaea’s attacks inflict Seam Stitch on targets, allowing the summon to deal additional damage to them.

Her Ultimate, Dance, Destined Weaverness, can summon or completely heal Garmentmaker, depending on its current status. In addition, the Ultimate allows Aglaea to take action immediately and enter the Supreme Stance state until its countdown on the action bar runs out. In this state, Aglaea gains SPD from Garmentmaker’s Memosprite Talent and has access to an Enhanced Basic Attack, but can’t use her Skill. Garmentmaker becomes immune to crowd control during Aglaea’s Supreme Stance.

Aglaea’s Enhanced Basic Attack, Slash by a Thousandfold Kiss, is a Joint Attack between her and Garmentmaker, which deals Lightning DMG based on the ATK of both units.

When Garmentmaker attacks enemies suffering from Seam Stitch, its SPD can increase up to six times. Both Aglaea and Garmentmaker have their ATK increased based on their SPD values, so this is not only a strong buff to their tempo, but to their general offensive power.

Aglaea’s Eidolon Levels, which can be increased by pulling additional copies of her, further buff her prowess. Level 1 enhances Seam Stitch, making enemies suffering from it more vulnerable to all incoming damage, and allowing Aglaea and Garmentmaker to restore Energy with attacks against them. Level 2 allows Aglaea and Garmentmaker to partly ignore enemy DEF — this can stack up to three times, if no other allied units take action in the meantime. Level 4 allows SPD Boost to be stacked an additional time and enables Garmentmaker to benefit from it. Level 6 is providing a buff to Supreme Stance, giving Aglaea and her Memosprite Lightning RES PEN. In addition, their Joint Attack gets stronger the more SPD they have.

Honkai: Star Rail – Aglaea: best teams

Aglaea is a monstrous damage dealer that strikes at enemy targets like a whirlwind thanks to the high SPD she can reach in conjunction with Garmentmaker.

• Aglaea (Main DPS), Sunday (Support), Robin (Support), Huohuo (Support)

Aglaea is getting the full care package of a hyper carry. Sunday is an obvious choice to fill one of the support slots, as his abilities greatly increase the effectiveness of summoners through buffs and turn manipulation. Plus, he can replenish Aglaea’s Energy reserves. Robin is a solid choice for similar reasons, providing a damage boost and turn manipulation in her team’s favor. All that will allow Aglaea and Garmentmaker to generate maximum buffs for themselves, dealing tons of damage in the meantime. Huohuo is an excellent pick as this squad’s healer, keeping the team in shape, providing ATK boosts, and refilling everyone’s Energy.

Characters like Trailblazer (Remembrance), Bronya, Asta, Hanya, Yukong, and Tingyun are effective supports for Aglaea as well.
