Ruan Mei's Recommended Build: Relics, Light Cone, and Trace

Ruan Mei is a 5 star character who was just released in patch 1.6 on Honkai Star Rail, as a character support with the Harmony role path type, apart from that, Ruan Mei has the Ice element as an attack power against enemies. To get the most out of it, you need to know the build for Ruan Mei.

Ruan Mei is the first character with the Harmony path type among the limited 5 star characters in the game Honkai Star Rail.

She has a very unique skill, where Ruan Mei's skill will provide Break Effects to the enemy quickly and with effect with type weakness whatever, as long as the DPS you have matches the type weakness enemy.

Ruan Mei is very suitable for those of you who are lacking support on the team. Plus, character support in the Honkai Star Rail Game is a long-term investment that can be used until the end of the game content. This is different from DPS which will continue to change when new meta enemies appear.

Therefore, we would recommend build Ruan Mei that you can follow to get the maximum potential from this character. Check out the discussion below!

Trace Level Up Priority

Trace Ruan Mei that you must raise in order:

• String Sings Slow Swirls – Skills: Ruan Mei will rely on skills first to buff teammates, so Ruan Mei's skills are the main priority to improve.
• Repose in Dream – Ultimate: Ruan Mei's ultimate is second in line for upgrading, because her ultimate will give buffs to teammates in the form of 30% RES PEN for all types of weaknesses.
• Somatotypical Helix – Talent: You can increase Ruan Mei's talent after the ultimate, because Ruan Mei's talent can increase 11% SPD of all teammates besides yourself.
• Threading Fragrance – Basic ATK : Basic ATK is optional for you upgrades, because Ruan Mei herself doesn't really need DMG Basic ATK
