Feixiao Build in Honkai: Star Rail - Best Relics, Light Cones, and Teams

Feixiao Build in Honkai: Star Rail - Best Relics, Light Cones, and Teams

Feixiao is a 5-star Wind character on the Path of The Hunt who deals her damage through frequent follow-up attacks and a heavy single-target Ultimate. Instead of a normal Energy bar, she charges her Ultimate with points of Flying Aureus, gaining one point for every two attacks her allies make. Building her well means stacking CRIT, feeding her follow-up attacks, and pairing her with characters who attack often.

⚔️
Quick answer: Run 4-piece The Wind-Soaring Valorous with the Duran, Dynasty of Running Wolves ornament and her signature light cone I Venture Forth to Hunt. Aim for 70–80%+ CRIT Rate, 140%+ CRIT DMG, 2,900+ ATK, and at least 134 SPD.

Best relics and ornaments for Feixiao

The Wind-Soaring Valorous is her strongest four-piece set because it raises her Ultimate damage right after she lands a follow-up attack, which fits the way her kit constantly chains attacks. If you don't have the set finished, a 2-piece Wind-Soaring Valorous combined with 2-piece The Ashblazing Grand Duke covers the gap while you farm.

For the planar ornament, Duran, Dynasty of Running Wolves is the top pick. It stacks every time an ally uses a follow-up attack and, at five stacks, adds a large chunk of CRIT DMG. Feixiao reaches max stacks easily because she fires follow-ups so often.

The Wind-Soaring Valorous (4-pc)Relic (best)+12% ATK; +6% CRIT Rate, and +30% Ultimate DMG for 1 turn after a follow-up attack.

Best light cones for Feixiao

Her signature light cone, I Venture Forth to Hunt, is the clear best choice. It gives flat CRIT Rate and grants Luminflux on follow-up attacks, which lets her Ultimate ignore part of the enemy's DEF. If you can't get it, several five-star options keep her damage high, and the free Cruising in the Stellar Sea is a solid no-pull pick.

Main stats, substats, and stat targets

Feixiao is a standard CRIT damage dealer, so prioritize CRIT Rate, CRIT DMG, and ATK. Keep the usual 1:2 ratio between CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG. You can choose between an ATK% feet piece for raw damage or a SPD feet piece to act more often and generate Flying Aureus faster.

For substats, the priority order is CRIT Rate% = CRIT DMG% > ATK% > SPD > flat ATK. Hit these targets to get the most out of her:

StatTarget value
CRIT Rate70% – 80%+
CRIT DMG140% or more
SPD134 / 143 / 160+
ATK2,900 or more (out of combat)
⏱️
Reaching 134 SPD lets Feixiao take two turns in the first cycle. Higher speed gives even more turns, but aim for a clean breakpoint rather than overshooting by a few points.

Trace and Eidolon priority

Most of her damage comes from her Ultimate and her Talent follow-up attack, so level those first, then her Skill. Her Basic ATK can stay at level 1 because she rarely uses it. All three Bonus Abilities matter and should be unlocked as soon as possible.

Boltcatch gives Feixiao a 48% ATK boost for three turns whenever she uses her Skill.
Bonus AbilityEffect
Heavenpath (A2)Starts battle with 3 Flying Aureus and adds toward stacks when no Talent follow-up fired last turn.
Formshift (A4)Ultimate counts as a follow-up attack and raises follow-up CRIT DMG by 36%.
Boltcatch (A6)Using Skill increases ATK by 48% for 3 turns.

On the Eidolon side, E1 boosts her main damage by roughly 23%, and E2 is a major jump because it lets ally follow-up attacks generate Flying Aureus, charging her Ultimate far faster. E4 is mostly a stepping stone to E6, which adds RES PEN and converts her Talent follow-up into Ultimate damage with a much higher multiplier.

Best Feixiao teams

Feixiao thrives with allies who attack frequently or use their own follow-up attacks, since every ally hit triggers her Talent and feeds Flying Aureus. Robin is her standout support thanks to her offensive buffs and team-wide advance forward on her Ultimate.

Main DPSFeixiaoFeixiao
Sub-DPSTopaz / Cipher / MozeMarch 7th (The Hunt)
SupportRobin / TribbieRemembrance Trailblazer
SustainAventurine / Permansor TerraeNatasha

March 7th (The Hunt) is a strong free partner because Feixiao follows up whenever March attacks, and her Shifu effect raises Feixiao's SPD. Other useful supports include Jiaoqiu for added Ultimate DMG and enemy vulnerability, Ruan Mei for broad buffs and extended Weakness Break, and Pela for DEF shred. Any Abundance or Preservation sustain works, with the exception of Huohuo, since Feixiao gains nothing from her Energy Regen.

🎯
Feixiao is single-target locked, so lean on AoE-capable teammates for content with lots of enemies. Her Talent follow-up does redirect to a random enemy if the main target dies, which softens that weakness slightly.

Build her around CRIT, keep her Skill on cooldown for the ATK buff and free follow-up, and surround her with frequent attackers. Do that and Feixiao reliably erases priority targets and bosses in a single Ultimate window.
