Who is Saber in Honkai Star Rail?
Saber is a 5-star Wind element DPS following the Path of Destruction. Her combat style is centered around managing “Core Resonance” to increase skill effectiveness, recover Energy quickly, and unleash frequent powerful AoE attacks. Her kit allows her to scale hard with both CRIT stats and attack-based bonuses, making her a strong fit for hypercarry roles.
HSR Saber Kit Leak
Basic ATK: “Invisible Air” deals 100% Wind DMG to one target. After her Ultimate, her next Basic ATK is replaced with “Release, the Golden Scepter,” dealing AoE Wind DMG and gaining 2 Core Resonance.
Skill: “Strike Air: Hammer of the Wind King” deals 150% Wind DMG to a single enemy and 75% to adjacent enemies. If Core Resonance is present and full Energy is regained upon use, the DMG multiplier increases by 14% per stack consumed. If no resonance is used, Saber gains 2 instead.
Ultimate: “Excalibur” is a massive AoE attack that deals 280% Wind DMG to all enemies and then hits a random enemy 10 times for 110% each. It changes the next Basic ATK to “Release, the Golden Scepter.”
Talent: “Dragon Reactor Core” generates 1 Core Resonance at battle start. When an ally uses an Ultimate, Saber gains 3 Core Resonance and a 40% DMG buff for 2 turns. Consuming 1 stack of Core Resonance also regenerates 10 Energy.
HSR Saber Traces and Bonuses
- Crown of the Star: Using Skill increases CRIT DMG by 50% for 2 turns.
- Blessing of the Lake: Excess Energy post-Ultimate is restored. If starting with <40% Energy, she recovers to 40%.
- Knight of the Dragon: Grants 20% CRIT Rate and the “Mana Burst” mechanic, which allows immediate actions and Skill Point refunds when paired with Core Resonance.
HSR Saber Eidolons Overview
- E1: Adds 50% DMG and generates Core Resonance after every Basic ATK or Skill.
- E2: Boosts CRIT DMG for “Release” and “Strike Air.” Every Core Resonance adds 5% CRIT DMG (up to 50%).
- E4: Increases Wind RES PEN by 4%, stacking up to 4 after Ultimates.
- E6: Greatly boosts RES PEN and grants 300 Energy once per battle when using her first Ultimate. Repeats after 4 Ultimate uses.
Saber Signature Light Cone: A Thankless Coronation
This Light Cone enhances CRIT DMG by up to 72% and increases ATK when using the Ultimate. If Saber’s Max Energy exceeds 300, it restores 10% Energy and grants another ATK boost for 2 turns, enabling smoother cycling of Ultimates.
Final Thoughts
Saber is shaping up to be a dominant Wind DPS in Honkai Star Rail 3.4. Her unique Core Resonance mechanic not only fuels her damage but also ensures constant Energy regeneration. With her fast skill rotation, high CRIT scaling, and transformation-based Basic ATKs, Saber is likely to shine in many team comps. Her Eidolons further unlock devastating multipliers, making her a long-term investment for damage-focused players.
