The character under this tier is substandard, as they do not impact the battlefield. The B Tier Path of Destruction character is:

  • Arlan

Arlan is an inferior character in Honkai Star Rail because of his unsatisfactory damage-dealing capabilities, and to shine on the battlefield, he requires all Eidolons and a team built only for him.

He can clear the Simulated Universe while meeting all the requirements, but it is not worthwhile because other characters can clear it quickly with little investment.
