Acheron is a Lightning Nihility unit inHonkai: Star Rail. Her gameplay revolves around her Ultimate where she launches a devastating AoE attack against everything in front of her. However, this massive damage comes with a catch: Acheron needs the entire team to work for her and debuff enemies non-stop. This makes her a bit of aselfish character in the game.
Being a limited 5-star character gives players the luxury of pulling for Acheron multiple times through her reruns. However, before pulling, one must know whatAcheron’s Eidolonsdo and if they’re worth it inHonkai: Star Rail.
Are Acheron Eidolons Worth it in Honkai: Star Rail?
Acheron Eidolons are worth it inHonkai: Star Rail. In fact, Acheron is an entirely different unit with her E2 since it eliminates all of her limitations. Even E6 grants Acheron a passive that allows her to destroy enemies in any place at any time. For players that don’t want to invest loads of wishes to get Acheron’s Eidolons,stopping at her E2 is efficientand puts her among thebest DPS inHonkai: Star Rail.
Importance
E1
CRIT Rate increases by 18% when dealing DMG to debuffed enemies.
High
Taking into consideration Acheron’s kit, she should always hit a debuffed enemy, which makes the 18% Crit Rate a must-have during all of her hits. For that, E1 Acheron’s passive effect is a goodbuff for her inHonkai: Star Rail.
E2
The number of Nihility characters required for the Trace “The Abyss” to achieve its highest possible effect is reduced by 1. When this unit’s turn starts, gains 1 point of Slashed Dream and inflicts 1 stack of Crimson Knot on the enemy with the most Crimson Knot stacks.
Priority
Acheron is a strong force if you team her with at least two otherNihility units inHonkai: Star Rail. Sadly, that puts some limitations on her team building since you won’t have enough room to add some characters that can really benefit Acheron’s playstyle. Getting Acheron’s E2 lets you bypass this limitation sinceyou’ll only need one Nihility in her team, which is necessary anyway to keep enemies debuffed.
Not only bypassing her limitation, but Acheron’s second Eidolon also grants her the ability to regenerate her Ultimate much faster, allowing her to cast it more frequently.
E4
When enemy targets enter combat, afflict them with the Ultimate DMG Vulnerable Vulnerability state, increasing the amount of Ultimate DMG they take by 8%.
Low
Putting a debuff on each new target to increase their DMG taken from Ultimates by 8% is not that important even for Acheron. However, once you unlock her E6, Acheron’s E4 becomes more valuable.It’s best to stop at E2 unless you’re going for E6, since Acheron E4 is not worth the cost.
E6
Increases the All-Type RES PEN for the Ultimate DMG dealt by Acheron by 20%. The DMG dealt by Basic ATK and Skill will also be considered as Ultimate DMG and can reduce enemy toughness regardless of Weakness Types. When Weakness is broken, triggers the Lightning Weakness Break effect.
E6 Acheron’s grants her the ability to be strong against every element inHonkai: Star Rail. Every single one of Acheron’s attacks is considered an Ultimate hit now and Acheron will break Toughness in any circumstances against any opponent. This also allows all of Acheron’s attacks to enjoy Ultimate DMG buffs from other sources, making it one of thebest Eidolons inHonkai: Star Rail.
