Overcome your foes’ defenses using an optimal Honkai: Star Rail Pela setup, focusing on their vulnerabilities. Pela adheres to the path of The Nihility and excels in dishing out Ice damage while reducing the defense stat of adversaries, thereby benefiting her team.
Pelas ability, Frostbite, inflicts Ice damage equivalent to her attack on a sole opponent while also stripping off one active buff from the targeted foe.
Her ultimate ability, called Zone Suppression, deals Ice damage to all adversaries and sets their Exposed status, which weakens their defense for the next two turns. The defense reduction is due to the Exposed effect. Pela’s skill, Data Collecting, aids in frequently activating this ultimate by replenishing her energy when an attack leaves an enemy debuffed.
With each new Eidolon level she acquires (obtained from duplicates of a character), Pela receives extra Energy Regeneration. For every foe she defeats, she gains five Energy. At Eidolon level 1, her Speed (SPD) increases when she debilitates an enemy for two consecutive turns. At Eidolon level 2, this SPD boost becomes even more pronounced. Additionally, at Eidolon level 4, her skill reduces the Ice Resistance of the targeted foe, making her exceptionally effective as an Ice Damage Main DPS. Lastly, at Eidolon level 6, her damage output against debilitated opponents increases significantly.

Honkai: Star Rail – Pela: best Relics

Although the Wind Damage Bonus provided by Eagle of Twilight Line seems irrelevant, it’s still a solid Relic option due to its other benefits. Specifically, using an Ultimate skill triggers a quicker next action for her, allowing her to regenerate Energy more swiftly, resulting in increased frequency of her Ultimate abilities.

Honkai: Star Rail – Pela: best teams
As a fellow enthusiast, let me express how thrilling it is to witness Pela’s inclusion in various teams! Her versatile nature truly shines, making her an ideal teammate across the board. It’s not just about reducing the opponent’s defense; it’s about enhancing our chances of victory, and she sure knows how to do that!
- Acheron (Main DPS), Jiaoqiu (Support), Pela (Support), Aventurine (Support)
Acheron gains advantages by including Pela in her squad: The presence of more Nihility characters amplifies her Trace and Relic abilities, accelerates the charging of her Ultimate through debuff accumulation, and reduces DEF effectively boosting damage output. Jiaoqiu is another formidable debuff character. Aventurine primarily focuses on team protection, yet she too can impose debuffs to aid Acheron.
Characters such as Cipher, Fugue, Kafka, and Black Swan serve as strong substitutes for Jiaoqiu, but they do not attain the same level of debuff potency.
Jiaoqiu’s debuffing power is unmatched by characters like Cipher, Fugue, Kafka, or Black Swan, though they come close.
Lastly: While characters such as Cipher, Fugue, Kafka, and Black Swan are strong alternatives to Jiaoqiu, they do not possess the same degree of debuff effectiveness.
