Honkai: Star Rail – Lynx build and ascension guide

by

Assist your friends by creating an optimal build for the character Lynx in Honkai: Star Rail, who happens to be the little sister of Serval and Gepard. Lynx specializes in dealing Quantum damage and follows The Abundance. By doing so, you’ll not only enhance your own gameplay but also expand your collection by acquiring another healer.

Lynx’s Skill, Salted Camping Cans, bestows the “Survival Boost” effect onto an ally for two turns. This effect increases their maximum health by a portion of Lynx’s own maximum health, as well as restoring their current health based on the same stat. If “Survival Boost” is activated on a character with the “Preservation” trait, their chances of being targeted in attacks are heightened.

In simpler terms, “Her Ultimate, Snowfield First Aid,” restores health to all allies according to the maximum health of Lynx and removes a single debuff from everyone.

Outdoor Survival Experience, provides continuous healing to the chosen targets for two consecutive turns. This healing amount is determined by her maximum health points (HP). Moreover, any targets already affected by Survival Response receive an extra boost in their health recovery.

The levels of her Eidolon can be elevated by acquiring more versions of her character, enhancing her capabilities in the following ways:

1. Eidolon Level 1 amplifies the healing power when restoring characters with less than half their maximum health.
2. Eidolon Level 2 empowers characters equipped with Survival Response to resist applying one debuff effect.
3. At Eidolon Level 4, characters with Survival Response receive a 3% boost to their attack power that is based on Lynx’s maximum health.
4. Eidolon Level 6 intensifies the additional maximum health provided by Survival Response and increases the target’s Effect Resistance by 30%.

Honkai: Star Rail – Lynx: best Light Cones

As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but express my desire for Lynx to excel in the areas that most healers covet: maximum health and outgoing healing. Given this, the distinctive Light Cone ability, Time Waits for No One, stands out as an optimal choice for her. This is because it amplifies both of these key attributes. To add to its appeal, this Light Cone also transforms a portion of the healing into additional damage when Lynx’s allies engage in combat.

  • Time Waits for No One (5-Star)
  • Night of Fright (5-Star)
  • Warmth Shortens Cold Nights (4-Star)

Honkai: Star Rail – Lynx: best teams

In simpler terms, Lynx consistently assumes the healing role within her teams. Compared to Natasha, she’s a significant improvement, but she’s often outshone by many other healers in the game.

  • Qingque (Main DPS), Silver Wolf (Support), Sparkle (Support), Lynx (Support)

In the role Lynx occupies now is providing healing services within Mono-Quantum squads, like the one centered around Qingque. Sparkle provides a plentiful supply of Skill Points for Qingque to use strategically, while Silver Wolf is responsible for inflicting Quantum Weakness on enemies in addition to debilitating them.
