Beginner’s Guide to EARLY GAME PROGRESSION in Honkai: Star Rail 

MOST IMPORTANT! DONT FORGET TO HAVE FUN! DOWNLOAD HSR IF U HAVENT ALREADY: hoyo.link/8fjbCZBd

A change of pace in Hoyoverse, giving a rest to genshin players, while waiting for Fontaine is good to me. I hope the game have good lore like genshin does.

I’m already digging the turn based aspect of HSR a very fresh start not everything needs to be open world.

Bro they gave 180 energy while genshin still has 160 lol

Thank you! By far the best beginner video I've seen yet

March 7th is a really good defensive unit especially when I got yanqing because of her shield, and a special mention to her ult as well as it saved me numerous times. Still use her in my team at traiblazer level 17 :)

JING YUAN

"it will take a player about four hours to get through the tutorial and unlock the simulated universe and trailblaze power" or you can be me, who spent 4 hours just to get up the elevator and unlock summons because i wanted to break every box, collect every scrap of paper, find every piece of dialogue, and lick every wall

As both a HI3 player and Genshin player, Hsr is definitely a mix of both

Wow absolutely fantastic guide, is this how most of your content is? Very streamlined and to the point no fluff.

This was so helpful, thank you mr. Xlice 🙏

This game looks so good! I will have to take the early game slow because college final week is next week, but once that is over I should have a little bit more time to play the game.

clear and precise - immediately subbed lol

Thank you for the message at the beginning. It actually helped me slow down hahahah

Im so glad getting Clara. Absolute beast tank. Paired with March 7th and you'll be shielding and countering for days! Also place tanks on the right or left most side to mitigate potential aoe damage! Just love how diff comps can work. Cheers to Hoyoverse!

Thank you for the tips, Xlice.

Just got Clara as my first 5 star! Excited to see where this goes, thanks for the guide!

Very excited to start playing, I'm going to be so tired at work tomorrow but it'll be worth it!! 30 more minutes :)

Somehow, i feel safe going into the void, knowing mr.Xlice is along for the ride.

thank you for the guide mr. xlice! ngl the genshin similarities are going to help a ton for a genshin player like me to quickly get a grasp of things

Also, thanks for the genshin parallel. It makes it easier to digest the info mountain

I just started playing and managed to get Clara along with Svarog, they're so cute istg

Best advice at the beginning of the video 😊😊

Thank you !!!

Love story/lore in rpg's. Hoping HSR will have as many books in game as Genshin does.

thank you so much, it actually helped! i didnt knew when the fuck the relic system will get unlocked so i was just fucking around until i came across this video!

this is what i needed, a side by side comparison to genshin for me to understand better.

i can already tell this is gonna be my favorite game

Im familiar with turn based rpgs like pokemon so honkai isnt that complicated andim loving it so far

As Persona and Dislyte enjoyer i ate the early game in about 2 hours, I'm loving this game so much!

WHY IS THIS VID ALREAYD GIVNG ME NOSTALGIA.. playing hsr since release was a challenge since most of the players havent unlocked most of the things yet so i had to figure out things on my own 😅😅

Eeee I am watching this now just before I start playing! I have been so excited lol and this morning got all my business work done and all my commissions and tax stuff so I can play for a few hours without guilt lol.

The game is fun since I like turn based games, I also ended up getting my characters to level 20 and the cones leveled up and ended up getting Clara as a 5 star. Only thing I don’t like is the 90 pull Gacha system other than that I hope the story stays good and they add more events.

materials crafting, dailies and those exp instances are so easy and fast to do compared to GI.. plus you can easy use all your trailblazer power in 1 sweep and much faster if you have whale friends(finally they have use here and you don't have to wait and get trolled by bored players plus you don't have to go searching them on the map just 1 click and you're there)

I was skeptical of this game, but I actually like it👌🏻 I’m gonna go F2P this time.

YAYAYAYAYA ITS OUTTTT

The game got *much* harder at equilibrium 1. It seems I haven't been prioritizing characters enough, instead focusing on leveling up different damage types for weakness breaks. I only have one 5 star so far though, Welt, who is only occasionally useful. When with a main team at lv30 I'm still struggling against lv29 bosses, but I guess that makes sense. I'm not trying to play for meta but do wish it were easier to get the pity system on 5 star pulls. Sometimes feels like you have to read an encyclopedia to plan out your team in this game, but I'm just trying to enjoy myself despite knowing I'm missing out on 5* characters, so I end up with high level 4* chars, now if I were to finally pull another 5* I'd have to level them up to match, assuming I can even use them. The game makes it feel like you need multiple teams of different paths and damage types for different mobs, but building and maintaining that seems impossible without whaling pretty hard. Anyway thanks for the video, I seem to have been getting ahead of myself and need to focus more on side quests and SU. Wish me luck pulling SW and enough starlight for Sampo.

If this was on console I would definitely put more time in it but right now just playing on my phone is not going to cut it for more than 30 minutes to an hour at a time

I gotta say im lucky af, on my second x8 roll i got both Clara and Yanqing. I will probably save my free 5* until i see what third one i get.

i made it my mission to do the fuvking lv 16 boss with lv10 characters. it was actually pretty fun so i am basically going in 5 lv lower than the bosses to fight them. it has an unfortunate downside that i can't auto farm the calyx but fun is fun.

im pretty sure i spent 4 hours alone looking for trash cans ngl

"READ" You missed 80% playerbase there Aware

At least the fight before boarding the train was easier than the Dvalin fight. also man i miss Pokemon EX masters thanks to the turn-base method

I hope i can get bailu, shes adorable and i saw her trailer and imeddiatly fell in love with her shes just like fits in the palm for your hand and you can throw her like a baseball

my first and only 5 star is welt... i hoped for a better like Clara for example, but it is what it is. the bad thing: welt needs a assist hero, that i don't have, so he is nearly useless for me atm. the good thing: i have Natasha on c1 and soon i will get the free copy of her while playing. So i will save my pulls for my plan b: getting Clara for example after 300 pulls in the standard banner. Seele is out of my range. Maybe i save the hertha coins to get the fire MC.

So much genshin similarities- ill love it!

Soooooo much stuff to remember 😢

Is there any sort of condensed resin equivalent in HSR?

Newbie Question: I have been playing Genshin for just over 3 months (currently in the middle of Sumeru, and loving it) and have no experience with other Gacha games or more mobile focused games. While my impression of Mihoyo is currently great I'm a little cautious of the more mobile-esque fighting seen here and that it's less open-world. As well as the fact that Honkai Star Rail is new and that potentially means bugs/limited content. Are my concerns overblown and or would I be better entering this type of game from its mature predecessor Honkai 3 rather than the now-launching Star Rail?

Is there any sheet for every character build ?? maybe someone know one, let me know too, need info on what relic and LC for early game so bad

Finally... A semi-full control turn based mobile game, not just dropping skills but can control on who to normal attack

Where do you look to see your energy/stamina amount? I can't seem to find it unless I'm in the missions that use it.

Very cool mr. Strimmer :)

Hey should I complete the 2 side quest before getting into the train or i can do it later???

The game has only been out for 7-8 hours and I’ve already got eidolon 3 Herta 😅 somehow I got super lucky on warps

"Eruditon farm trash mobs" Me who got qingque and is using it for both boss and trash mobs damage since she deals alot of damage for me like den hang and her are same level den hang is e1 while qinque is e0 but still deals more damage and im only using den hang for breaking enemies and also using bursts on them to break which deals xtra dmg (i think) and den hang having almost all of the relics i have which is not much...

im fucking loving this game yo

im stuck in a boss fight right now. its the big ice guy you fight in the underground at lvl 15 or so. Im just doing side quests because i dont know what else to do.

Absolutely loving this game got gepard from the free 5 star and kafka on my 33 pull trailblazer level 25

just finished playing for a while and im kinda over it i like the story but like the summons yeah no im fine its like mixing weapon and character banners and i just dont like it but for those who enjoy this hope it continues to be fun and isnt a new gacha feeling

I've got one issue Who do i need and how do i build a team that works around welt really well

i just wanna know how change the file location lmao....I downloaded it on my C but i have no clue as how to move it to my D...any tips?

I will probably be sidetracked and it may take me 4 days because of how I am as a person going crazy about the chests around the map

waiting for an Arash like character

i’m not even gonna play this game like that - i’m gonna hoard everything i get for the next 5 years and then use it at once

I'm a Herta main! She is so pretty and fun to play.

Why am i stuck at the loading screen, it always tells me to download 13.33mb when i restart the game why?

Enjoy the game fellow trailblazers!

I want to get into this game because I love the turn based gameplay, but man... there's a lot. Lol

I just started Star Rail now. So far Serval and Natasha have been my best units. My 5 stars are Clara and Bailu which i dont understand. I finally got Kafka so she is with serval and natasha. Im Trail level 21 and all the missions have bosses in the 39s. I dont know wbo to level or who to focus on. Should i refocus on Dan Heng since he is wind? Tyy

It ain't even out yet and we're already min maxing all fun out of the game 🤣

This game is amazing im loving it so far

bro i started yesterday and i pulled Serval which is cool, i pulled Pela which i wanted that was coo, then i pulled sampo and was curious when id see a legendary. i saved up for a 10 pull from the event and got seele first try 😂😭 im so happy tbh. people are mad especially my friend when he finds out.

i played 17 hours today and im hard stuck lvl 22 i used all my energie did all the quests and opened all the chests did as many achivements as possible did 130 pulls combined on standard and event banner and there is no other way for me to level up other than to wait for more energie and daily reset

For me, I like to walk around when I love shiny things so it'll be 10 hours for me XDD

When should I ascend? I have Clara, Natasha, March 7th and Seele all level 20. Not down with boulder missions yet

you can go back to watch the story later if you skip it? i want to play the game but i have school tomorrow morning 😭

What happens if you fail to get the warp trotter? Does it move to a new location or respawn or something?

How do i complete the assignments? I don’t understand what im supposed to do

I alr got enough on my plate trying to grind genshin this gonna kill me 😭

i spent 6hrs consecutively in the game had a great time lv.20 world lv 1 now great game

nice intro who animated it

Im new to the game but not new to gacha games like this, the thing is, I dont know when to start grinding for relics 😢 I pay more attention to the lore and story bc... Im a sucker for lore but to progress through the story I need to build my characters

I got a 5star name seele or something like that is she good?

Wish it had honkai fight system other than that it looks great

Okokok......I'll give it a chance...

i am stuck on level 20, HELP ME! i cant continue the main quest(archon quest) until 24:

In 11h i got to lvl 18 and now my quest is stuck behind lvl 24, honestly,ppl shouldn't rush like i did😭i dont regret it but its better to be slow and enjoy the game:)

"you will part with trial himeko" Honkai player : "will you do it again mihoyo ?'"

I'M HUNGRY IM STRAVING FOR JIN YUANNNNNNN I NEED JING YUAN.

thanks for explaining in genshin terms, it's much more easier

I only installed this game to get Natasha. We have the same name

So I'll be taking 6 hours for sure and I'm working today :')

So the boss fights? Is like playing tcg invocation?

Played about an hour. Feels very “Tales of” but I remember liking Tales more or maybe I lack the patience I once had.

Seems like the characters are cool, I like the visuals, but I just cannot get with the turn based battles 😕

How do i heal in the game, i really dont get it :(

Bro I encountered that piggy and I ran cause I was trying to switch to it's type weakness

For PC version, will it be in 60fps? Or 30fps like base genshin is? I use a fps unlocker for genshin since playing at 30fps feels awful.

I accidentally did like maximum exploration, dailies and weeklies and am about to cap at 20 before i have access to the E1 quest. Kinda wasted.
