Fu Xuan is the Master Diviner of The Xianzhou Luofu’s Divination Commission and played a huge role in the nation’s main story. She was released in Version 1.3 as a five-star Quantum character who follows the Path of Preservation. At the time of release, there are only three other Preservation units in the game, and Fu Xuan marks the first limited character who follows this Path. Preservation characters are valuable shielders and damage absorbers who help with the team’s survivability. But is it worth shelling out thousands of Stellar Jades for Fu Xuan?
Is Fu Xuan worth pulling for in Honkai Star Rail?
Fu Xuan is an HP-scaling unit, so she’s easy and fuss-free to build with HP, SPD, and Effect RES stats. She offers ajam-packed kitthat focuses solely on the team’s sustainability—so much so that you’ll be able to run her without an Abundance unit in some situations. Since her Ultimate dealsAoE Quantum DMG, she’s also a capable Weakness Breaker.
Fu Xuanincreases the team’s Max HPby a portion of her own Max HP and givesall allies a CRIT Rate percentage bonus. When Fu Xuan uses her Ultimate, she gains a stack that goes toward herself-healingability. It automatically triggers when her HP is 50% or lower, further improving her survivability.

Fu Xuan’s unique Preservation prowess lies in her Skill, whichredirects a portion of DMG taken by allies to herself. If you’ve been playing the Simulated Universe, then you might have obtained a Blessing with a similar effect a few times. But Fu Xuan is able to bring this unique ability to the open world. By only apportioning DMG taken by allies (instead of triggering full-on aggro), she pairs very well with characters who still need to take damage to trigger skills and follow-up attacks, such asClaraandBlade.
One consideration to make is that while Fu Xuan is able to create ashield that resists enemy attacks, shedoesn’t have an actual in-battle shield. If you’re used to playing direct shielders likeGepardandMarch 7th, or an aggro-based shielder likeFire Trailblazer, then you’ll have to adjust your rotations to accommodate Fu Xuan. But what Fu Xuan lacks in direct shielding, she makes up for tenfold with a highly versatile kit that can be used universally across any team comp.
In my opinion, Fu Xuan is worth pulling for if you need an all-around Preservation character and a Quantum Weakness Breaker in your roster. Even without direct shields, she’s more than capable of keeping the team from dying with her unique DMG apportioning ability.
