Silver Wolf is a very good character when you have this character in Eidolon 0 (E(0)). 

All Eidolon Silver Wolves provide significant benefits helping Silver Wolf abilities to be more optimal.

We consider that Eidolon 1 (E(1)) Silver Wolf has been highly optimized because it can provide additional Energy to the characters in the party every time the Silver Wolf Debuff is used.

Thus, other characters can focus on attacking and use their turn to use Skills or Ultimates.

As is known, the abilities possessed by Honkai Star Rail characters are divided into three. Each is Basic ATK, Technique, Skill, Talent, and Ultimate.

Silver Wolf's Basic ATK is System Warning will deal Quantum DMG which is calculated from the Silver Wolf's ATK percentage. Later, the ATK will deal damage to enemies in the game.

Silver Wolf's Talent is Awaiting System Response, Silver Wolf will create 3 types of Bugs: reduce ATK, reduce DEF, and reduce enemy SPD.

When Silver Wolf attacks, you will get a base chance that can implement random bugs to one enemy in the game. Furthermore, the effect will last three turns.

Silver Wolf Technique, namely the Force Quit Program, Silver Wolf will immediately attack the enemy in the game. When entering battle mode, Silver Wolf deals Quantum DMG calculated from Silver Wolf's ATK percentage for all enemies.

After using Technique it will also lower the enemy's Toughness Bar with any Weakness element.

Enemies who manage to get Weakness Break from using this Technique will get Quantum Weakness Break Effect.

Silver Wolf's skill is Allow Changes?, Silver Wolf will have a chance to add 1 elemental type Weakness to the target enemy. 

The type of element that is added is the element that belongs to the character in your party. Each enemy can only have 1 Weakness element instilled by the Silver Wolf

Using skills can also reduce enemy DMG RES to Weakness element types added by Silver Wolf for 2 turns. 

If the enemy already has the added element's Weakness, the DMG RES Reduction effect on the Weakness element will not be triggered. 

Apart from that, using this skill also gives Silver Wolf a base chance to reduce the enemy's All-Type RES for 2 turns and gives Quantum DMG which is calculated based on Silver Wolf's ATK.

Ultimate Silver Wolf namely User Banned, Silver Wolf will deal Quantum DMG equal to Silver Wolf's ATK percentage to one enemy. In addition, using Ultimate will reduce the target enemy's DEF for 3 turns.

The Silver Wolf build is mandatory for you to prioritize Skill > Talent > Ultimate = Technique > Basic ATK.

As a path Nihitlity character or an enemy Debuff support character, the Silver Wolf build is focused on speeding up the attack of the enemy by weakening the enemy.

Silver Wolf's Skills and Talents are the main abilities and focus of the character build kit, so you must maximize them.

Relic Recommendations for Build Silver Wolf Honkai Star Rail

Stats what you should prioritize for Silver Wolf Honkai Star Rail are ATK, Effect Hit Rate, Quantum DMG Boost, and Energy Regen Rate. 

Stats ATK%, Break Effect, and SPD can also be the sub stats that you prioritize for Silver Wolf builds to optimize attacks apart from providing Debuffs.

What you need to know is that the Relic set in this game is divided into two. They are Cavern Relic and Planar Ornament respectively. Both have special stats that are not necessarily owned by one slot and the other. 

The Cavern Relic set that we recommend is Genius of Brilliant Stars, Musketeers of Wild Wheat, or you can also combine the use of both as long as the required stats are fulfilled.

2-PC Genius of Brilliant Stars will provide an additional Quantum DMG of 10% and the use of 4-PC will reduce the enemy's DEF 10% if you don't have Quantum Weakness, and another 10% additional DEF if you have Quantum Weakness.

2-PC Musketeer of Wild Wheat can increase ATK up to 10%. Using 4-PC can increase SPD up to 6% and Basic ATK DMG by 10%.

You can also combine the Musketeer of Wild Wheat relic with the Champion of Streetwise Boxing.

As for Planar Ornament, the recommendation for Silver Wolf is set Pan-Galactic Commercial Enterprise.

Using the 2-PC Space Sealing Station will increase the ATK and SPD of this relics user.

Meanwhile, Talia's relic: Kingdom of Banditry will increase Effect Hit Rate and increase ATK for relic users.

However, if you are still at the initial level of the game, you can fulfill the stats first before setting the relic.

Silver Wolf is one of the Debuff support characters that is quite unique compared to other Nihility characters.

The ability to add Weakness element types to enemies is one of the plus points of the Silver Wolf kit that you must utilize.

Because the elemental weakness that is given is random, it would be great if you build Silver Wolf with a mono element team or element duo.

You can equate the elements in the team with Silver Wolf himself (quantum) or the DPS character elements that you use.

For example, you use Yanqing, which is an Ice-type DPS character. You can use the team order Yanqing, Silver Wolf, Pela, March 7th or Gepard.

If it's an elemental duo like Quantum-Lightning you can use Seele, Silver Wolf, Bailu, and Tingyun.

Using mono or duo element team comps makes it easier for you to implement the elements given by the Silver Wolf Skill to get the appropriate Weakness from DPS.

Thus the build guide for the Silver Wolf Honkai Star Rail character. This character is a good character for any element comps team. Fulfill your gaming needs at VCGamers Marketplace yes!
