To maximize the Buff effect of this character, you need a Break Effect with a total of 180%. You can get 160% Break Effect through the Relic sub and take the rest from the Ability Bonus.

Past Self in Mirror is a 5-star Light Cone from Harmony Path that best matches Ruan Mei in Honkai Star Rail.

Light Cone users will get an increase in Break Effect of 60% to 150% or even more.

You can use 4 Hackerspace or a combination of 2 Hackerspace and 2 Thief if you succeed in achieving 160% Break Effect via sub statistics.

Other Light Cone alternatives that you can choose besides Past Self in Mirror are Memories of the Past and Meshing Cogs.

Meanwhile, the best Relic and Ornament for Ruan Mei is Watchmaker, Master of Dream Machinations. This item can provide many Break Effects for him and his teammates.

Best Team Combination For Ruan Mei

Not only the right build combination, the composition of your teammates also greatly influences your chances of winning in battle.

Ruan Mei herself has a role as support in the team. Here are the best team combinations for this character:

Generalist Team

The first best team combination is the Generalist Team. This combination pairs Ruan Mei with characters with high DPS who can dish out large amounts of DMG.

In Generalist Team, you can add other Support characters to make attacks stronger. Here is a list of recommended characters:

• DPS: Jingliu, Xueyi, and Sushang
• Support: Gepard, Pela, and Fuxuan
• Healers: Gepard, Pela, and Gallagher

Break Effect Team

As we know, Ruan Mei can provide an advantage to any unit that relies on their Break Effect statistic.

This Path Harmony user character can also delay the opponent's healing process from Weakness Break. This gives teammates the opportunity to launch Super Break DMG at the opponent.

The team combination that you can place in the Break Effect Team is Xueyi for the DPS position, Trailblazers (Imaginary) in the Support position, and Gallagher for the position Healers.

Dual DPS Team

The final best combination recommendation is Dual DPS Team which concentrates on increasing DPS in the team.

Ruan Mei can help activate a team that has two DPS characters because her Buff has an effect on everyone.

Choosing two characters with high DPS will provide a big advantage when facing Elite level opponents with the same type of weakness as the DPS elements of these characters.
