Misha in Honkai Star rail

Misha is a 4-star Ice character that was introduced in the Honkai Star Rail version 2.0 update. Here are our recommended Relics, Light Cones, and more to build him effectively.

Misha serves as a bellboy at The Reverie Hotel in the new Penacony region. One day, he hopes to become an intergalactic adventurer to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps.

Misha is a 4-star Ice character on the Path of the Destruction whose kit largely revolves around using his Ultimate to Freeze enemies. This attack can increase in damage based on the party’s number of Skill Points.

Best Misha Light Cone in Honkai Star Rail

Honkai Star Rail Light Cone

The best Light Cone that we recommend for Misha is the 5-star option On the Fall of an Aeon. This Light Cone increases Misha’s ATK by 8% whenever he strikes an enemy, which can be stacked up to four times. It also improves Misha’s DMG by 12% for two turns after inflicting Weakness Break onto opponents.

Alternatively, you could run the 4-star Light Cone Indelible Promise to increase his Break Effect by 28% and CRIT Rate by 15% for two turns after using Misha’s Ultimate.

Lastly, the 4-star option Under the Blue Sky is another great choice for Misha. This Light Cone increases his ATK by 16%, and after defeating an enemy, Misha gains a 12% CRIT Rate boost for three turns.

Best Misha Relic and Ornament set

Considering Misha is an Ice character, we recommend placing the Hunter of the Glacial Forest on him. The bonus for the Relic set can be found below:

  • 2-piece: Increases Ice DMG by 10%.
  • 4-piece: After the wearer uses their Ultimate, their CRIT DMG increases by 25% for 2 turn(s).

The best Ornament set for Misha is Firmament Frontline Glamoth, which increases his ATK by 12%. Additionally, when Misha’s SPD is equal to or higher than 135/160, he will deal 12%/18% more DMG. Therefore, you must invest in his SPD stat.

Best Misha team comp in Honkai Star Rail

Bronya is a great support option in any team comp.

A great team composition with Misha as the DPS is alongside Bronya, Hanya, and Huohuo. Bronya will be able to provide her teammates with extra turns in addition to granting CRIT DMG buffs to Misha. Hanya can provide the party with more Skill Points, which can, in turn, increase the power of Misha’s Ultimate.

Finally, we suggest using Huohuo as the team healer, considering she can also restore Energy and buff ATK with her Ultimate.
