Using Aglaea’s optimal build in Honkai: Star Rail can transform her into one of the most formidable Lightning DPS characters available, adept at swiftly eliminating hordes of foes as well as tougher opponents. Besides the free-to-play (F2P) Remembrance Trailblazer, who is accessible to all players who progress far enough in the Amphoreus campaign, Aglaea marks the introduction of the Path of Remembrance, the first new playable path since the game’s launch. Once you gather Aglaea’s required materials in Honkai: Star Rail and level her up to the max, you can begin fine-tuning her build.
Aglaea is a 5-star Lightning character with the ability to summon a memosprite known as Garmentmaker to assist in battle. Her combat focus revolves around dealing substantial damage to enemies and executing multiple strikes, thanks to her impressive speed stats (which her kit can enhance) and support characters in her team that provide beneficial buffs to expedite her actions. Additionally, Aglaea’s attack power increases based on her speed, further amplifying her damage potential. Her skill set also enables her to inflict Seam Snitch on opponents, resulting in them taking extra damage over time.
Best Light Cones for Aglaea
Limited Options for Remembrance Light Cones (For Now)
To begin optimizing Aglaea’s build, equipping her with a suitable Light Cone is essential, even though the available Remembrance options are currently limited. The best choice is "Time Woven Into Gold," which is her signature 5-star weapon. This Light Cone boosts the user’s speed by 12 and grants a stacking buff called Brocade after they and their memosprite attack. Each Brocade stack enhances both the user’s and their memosprite’s critical damage by 9%, stacking up to six times. Once maxed, each stack also increases basic attack damage by 9%, aligning perfectly with Aglaea’s attack rotation.
