Honkai Star Rail Firefly kit
Firefly is a 5-Star Fire character of The Destruction path who mostly scales off attack, with some additional HP and Break Effect scaling. She can implant a Fire Weakness, heal herself, dispel debuffs on herself, and even fly for a short time in the overworld after using her Technique.
All of the percentages mentioned below are based on Level 1 Traces.
Here's a summary of Firefly's kit in Honkai Star Rail:
- Element: Fire.
- Path: The Destruction.
- Rarity: 5-Star.
- Normal Basic Attack: Order: Flare Propulsion - Deals Fire damage equal to 50% of Firefly's attack to a single enemy.
- Enhanced Basic Attack: Firefly Type-IV: Pyrogenic Decimation - Restores HP by an amount equal to 20% of Firefly's maximum HP, and deals Fire damage equal to 100% of Firefly's attack to a single target enemy.
- Normal Skill: Order: Aerial Bombardment - Counsumes Firefly's HP equal to 40% of her maximum HP and regenerates a fixed amount of Energy equal to 60% of Firefly's maximum Energy. Also deals Fire damage equal to 100% of Firefly's attack to a single enemy, and if Firefly's current HP is not sufficient enough then her HP is reduced to one point instead. Additionally, Firefly's next action is advanced by 25%.
- Enhanced Skill: Firefly Type-IV: Deathstar Overload - Firefly restores HP by an amount equal to 25% of her maximum HP, and applies Fire Weakness to a single enemy if they don't already have one, which lasts for two turns, while dealing Fire damage to this target equal to 0.2 x Firefly's Break Effect + 100% of Firefly's attack. Firefly also deals Fire damage to adjacent targets equal to 0.1 x Firefly's Break Effect + 50% of Firefly's attack. This Break Effect calculation is capped at 360%.
- Ultimate: Fyrefly Type-IV: Complete Combustion - Firefly enters the Complete Combustion state and advances her turn by 100%, activating the enhanced versions of her Basic and Skill attacks. While Complete Combustion is active, Firefly's Speed increases by 30, and when using her Basic and Skill attacks, Firefly's Weakness Break efficiency is increased by 50% and increases the damage Weakness Broken enemy targets receive by 10%, lasting until the current attack ends. A countdown timer for Complete Combustion appears in the Action Order, and when the countdown turn starts, Firefly exits the Complete Combustion state. This countdown has a fixed Speed of 70, and Firefly can't use her Ultimate again while in the Complete Combustion state.
- Talent (passive ability): Chrysalid Pyronexus - The less HP Firefly has, the less damage she takes. So when her HP is 20% or lower, Firefly's Damage Reduction reaches its maximum effect, reducing damage received up to a maximum of 20%. While the Complete Combustion state is active, Firefly's Damage Reduction remains at its maximum effect, and her Effect Resistance increases by an additional 10%. If Firefly's Energy is lower than 50% when the battle starts, she regenerates Energy to 50%, and once Energy is regenerated to its maximum, all debuffs on Firefly are automatically dispelled.
- Technique (overworld ability): Order: Meteoric Incineration - Firefly Leaps into the air and moves without restrictions for five seconds, but this can be ended early by launching a Plunging Attack. When the duration ends, Firefly descends and immediately attacks all enemies within a set area. In battle, at the start of each wave, Fire Weakness is applied to all enemies without one, lasting for two turns, and Firefly deals Fire damage equal to 200% of her attack to all enemies.
- Bonus Trace 1: Module α: Antilag Outburst - While in the Complete Combustion state, attacking enemies without Fire Weakness can also reduce Toughness by an amount equal to 55% of the original ability's Toughness Reduction.
- Bonus Trace 2: Module β: Autoreactive Armor - If Firefly is in the Complete Combustion state with a Break Effect that is equal to or greater than 200%/360%, attacking a weakness broken enemy target converts the Toughness Reduction of this attack into one instance of 30%/50% Super Break Damage.
- Bonus Trace 3: Module γ: Core Overload - For every 10 of Firefly's attack that exceeds 1800, her Break Effect is increased by 0.8%.
