With a Stelleron buried deep inside their chest, Honkai: Star Rail’s main character, the Trailblazer, will be the first character you’ll have access to. That means this will also be the first character you’ll get to decide how to build. Confused by all the options? Don’t worry, we can help! Here’s our recommendations for the best Light Cones, Relics and more for the Physical Trailblazer.
Best Light Cone for Physical Trailblazer in Honkai Star Rail
The best high-rarity Light Cone for the Physical Trailblazer isOn the Fall of an Aeon. It increases the users Attack with each strike a character lands against an enemy. It also increases the wearers damage for two turns when they inflict Weakness Break on an Enemy.
This Light Cone can be obtained FromHerta’s Simulated Universe Storefor eight Herta Bonds. These Bonds are obtained as a reward for completing Simulate Universe Levels. To superimpose this Light Cone, you’ll need to use four(Custom-made) Superimposers, which can also be purchased from Herta’s Simulated Universe Store for two Herta Bonds a piece.
Best free-to-play Light Cones for Physical Trailblazer
When you’re first starting out in the game, the first three-star Light Cone you are given,Collapsing Sky, is honestly a serviceable option for the first chapter of the game. If you want to upgrade from that, you could tryWoof! Walk Time, available from the Forgotten Hall store, or you could useUnder the Blue Sky, obtained from Gacha Pulls on the Standard Banner.
Keep in mind that On the Fall of an Aeon can absolutely be obtained for free through gameplay. Any of the other options that you pick should only be placeholders until you’re ready to obtain and build the five-star option, if you want to give your Physical Trailblazer the best build.

Best Relic sets for Physical Trailblazer in Honkai Star Rail
The best Relic Set to use for the Physical Trailblazer is theChampion of Streetwise Boxing Set. Its four piece set that boosts both Physical Damage and Attack. You can obtain a four-star set from the Jarilo-VI World Shopin Boulder Town for 400 Shield. Otherwise, this Relic Set can be farmed from theCavern of Corrosion: Path of Jabbing Punch. Here’s one ofour best tips—Wait to try to farm these Relics until you’ve unlocked the highest difficulty by reaching Equilibrium Level Six.
The best Planar Ornaments to use are from theCelestial DifferentiatorSet. This set can be obtained from completing Simulated Universe:World Five. Again, we recommend waiting to farm these Ornaments until you’ve unlocked the highest difficulty by reaching Equilibrium Level Six.
Which of Physical Trailblazer’s stats you should boost
As the Physical Trailblazerspecializes in dealing damage, the stats that you should focus building on with Relics and Ornaments areAttackandCritical Values.
Critical Main Stats can only be found onBody Relic Pieces, so verify that this Relic piece has this Main Stat Value. ThePlanar Sphereis the only piece that can boost your Physical Damage via its Main Stat Value, so we highly recommend using that as well. Otherwise, you should aim to have Attack as the Main Stat of your remaining Relics, with the exception of the Head Piece, which can only beHP.

Whipping out a bat and whacking some enemies is their main function.

Other units that don’t share their element but can be helpful are supports likeBronya,Asta, orTingyun.
