Who is Cerydra in HSR?
Cerydra, the Empress of Okhema, is making waves as the new Wind Harmony support set to join Honkai Star Rail in version 3.5. She’s been teased through official marketing and reliable leaks, showing us she’s all about helping key teammates shine brighter.
Think of her as a boss-level support who can boost speed, damage, and turn order, making your main damage dealers act more often and hit harder. Fans of supports like Tribbie and Hyacine will probably be excited because she’s expected to bring fresh tactics to the table.
HSR Cerydra Kit Leak
Her skill is pretty straightforward but impactful — it boosts an ally’s attack and damage for a few turns. This helps your damage dealer punch way above their weight for a short window.
The ultimate is where things get spicy. It deals Wind damage to enemies but also buffs the first ally in your turn order who has something called “Rank” stacks. This buff raises their crit damage and stacks even more bonuses. Plus, whenever allies attack, Cerydra adds extra Wind damage, so the pressure keeps building.
Her talent revolves around these “Rank” stacks, which she applies to the first ally in your lineup. As they rack up these stacks, they get extra turns and faster actions, which can completely change the flow of battle.
HSR Cerydra Traces and Eidolons
Cerydra’s traces seem designed to make her and her stacked allies even deadlier:
- Trace 1: When she lands a strong attack, she gets a crit damage boost based on how strong the hit was.
- Trace 2: Boosts speed for herself and allies who have Rank stacks. Also, she recovers health when those allies deal damage.
- Trace 3: Starts battles with some energy recovered, so she can get to work faster.
Her Eidolons stack up nicely, too:
- E1: Allies with Rank stacks ignore some of the enemy’s defence and get extra turns once per battle.
- E2: Increases damage dealt by those stacked allies and even extends the buff to Cerydra.
- E4: Buffs the power of her ultimate.
- E6: Boosts all-type resistance penetration for stacked allies and amps up Cerydra’s damage multipliers.
What HSR Cerydra Kit Means For Your Team
From what we see, Cerydra is shaping up to be a top-tier support, especially if you lean on single-target DPS that rely on quick turns and action gauge boosts. She’s got everything to help those damage dealers shine — faster turns, bigger hits, and extra damage layers.
Her kit also suggests some serious energy management, so your team can pop ultimates more often, keeping the momentum going. If you’ve been waiting for a strong Harmony support to shake up team comps, Cerydra might just be it.
Of course, these are early leaks, so things might shift a bit before the official release. But if you’re a fan of strategic support and want to stay ahead, Cerydra is definitely one to keep an eye on.
