Honkai: Star Rail - Fugue Build Guide

When Honkai: Star Rail was first launched, the Break-based play style didn't exist since there weren't any characters that could get value from it. The only time you'd build Break Effect on a character is when you want to trigger a big DoT on the enemies with them, which fell out of meta fairly quickly.

Because of this, it's surprising to believe that this is now one of the strongest playstyles in the game, further buffed with Fugue's release. Fugue is a five-star Fire Nihility character, and she's quite easy to understand and use.

Best Fugue Relics And Planar Ornaments

When it comes to Fugue's relics, much like other Break-based characters, she doesn't have a lot of flexibility. There are a few specific choices that you'd want to go for:

Type	Name	Synergy With Fugue
Relics	Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge	If you're playing Fugue in her best team, you'll likely have over 250 percent Break Effect quite easily. This set allows you to ignore 25 percent of the enemy's DEF for Super Break DMG when that happens.
	Thief of Shooting Meteor	On the other hand, if you're using her in an F2P team or would like to get her Ultimate back faster, you can use this set as you'd get a ton of energy from it with her constant Weakness Break.
Planar Ornaments	Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern	If you want to get some more damage out of Fugue, you can use this set to increase her Break Effect further since there's a high chance that you'll be fighting an enemy with Fire Weakness.
	Penacony, Land of the Dreams	You'll likely use Fugue with other Fire characters in most cases, which makes this set the perfect one for her as it'll increase her Energy Regen while also giving other Fire characters extra DMG.

Fugue Relic Stat Priority

Type	Main Stat Priority	Sub Stat Priority
Head	HP	Break Effect > SPD > Effect Hit Rate > ATK Percent
Hands	ATK	Break Effect > SPD > Effect Hit Rate > ATK Percent
Body	ATK Percent	Break Effect > SPD > Effect Hit Rate
Feet	SPD	Break Effect > Effect Hit Rate > ATK Percent
Planar Sphere	Fire DMG Bonus	Break Effect > SPD > Effect Hit Rate > ATK Percent
Link Rope	Break Effect	SPD > Effect Hit Rate > ATK Percent

You don't need a ton of EHR on Fugue, but a bit of it is nice to regularly apply her DEF reduction effect.

Best Fugue Light Cones

Unlike her relics, Fugue has a decent bit of choices when it comes to her light cones. However, you'll get a significantly higher value from her signature than any other one, as you'd expect:

Long Road Leads Home	Fugue's signature light cone massively boosts her Break Effect while also increasing the Break DMG taken by the enemy when they're Weakness Broken. This happens a lot with her in team, making it the perfect choice.
Those Many Springs	This light cone gives you a ton of Effect Hit Rate, which makes it useful to get her DEF reduction applied regularly. Moreover, it makes the opponents take increased damage when they're applied by DoT.
Resolution Shines As Pearls of Sweat	Since you'll already have some EHR on Fugue, this cone is a great four-star choice for its DEF reduction, which stacks with her skill.
Before the Tutorial Mission Starts	If you have this F2P-friendly light cone, you can use it to get a ton of extra energy on Fugue since she'll consistently be attacking Def-reduced enemies.
Fermata	Finally, if you don't have any of the above choices, you can also try Fermata simply for the Break Effect it provides.

Best Fugue Team Compositions

Even though there's a decent bit of Break-based characters in the game now, it's still quite easy to guess what teams she'll fit in. These teams are as follows:

Fugue Main Team

• Fugue
• Firefly/Robin/Boothill
• Ruan Mei/Harmony Trailblazer
• Lingsha

This is your run-of-the-mill Break-Based team with one main DPS and everyone else acting as a sub-DPS. Even after all this time, Firefly serves as the best candidate for this team as she not only shares Weakness with Fugue, but also destroys the enemy's weakness a lot faster, letting her deal more damage.

Firefly can also apply the Fire weakness on the enemy, allowing both Lingsha and Fugue to remove their shield properly. Ruan Mei is a better choice for the second support in this team since she can also enhance the team's Weakness Break Efficiency, allowing you to break the targets much more easily.

Lingsha is undoubtedly the best sustainer to use here due to her massive damage and shared combat type with most of the team.

Fugue F2P Team

• Fugue
• Himeko/Xueyi/Misha
• Pela/Asta
• Gallagher

While talking about an F2P-friendly team, you'll mostly think of using the best four-stars possible with Fugue. However, everyone has a chance of getting Himeko whenever they lose a 50-50 on the limited banner or get a five-star on the standard banner, so she can qualify as an F2P-friendly character if you get a bit lucky.

She's also one of the best units to pair with Fugue since the constant weakness breaks give her a ton of stacks for the passive. You can also combine this with Herta in game modes like Pure Fiction, but Pela will serve as a great support for any other scenario due to her DEF reduction.

Of course, Gallagher will be your best sustainer here since he has Break-based abilities in his kit.

Fugue Traces Overview And Priority

As mentioned above, Fugue is quite an easy character to understand, and here's what her abilities do:

• With her skill, you can apply Foxian Prayer on an ally for three turns, increasing their Break Effect and having a chance of reducing the enemy's DEF when they attack. During this, your basic attack is buffed to hit three enemies instead of one.
• The ally with Foxian Prayer can deal Weakness damage to enemies without their corresponding weakness at a 50 percent rate.
• When Fugue is on the field, all enemies have a second toughness bar equal to 40 percent of their original Toughness, and breaking this makes them take full Break DMG.
• When allies attack enemies with their weakness broken (excluding the special Toughness from Fugue), they deal an instance of Super Break DMG to them.

If you're planning to upgrade Fugue's traces, you should start with her Talent followed by the Skill and then the Ultimate. Her Basic Attack is also important to upgrade, but you can leave that for the last while also unlocking all her bonus traces and other nodes whenever possible.
