Best healers you can pair with Castorice in Honkai Star Rail

Since Castorice scales with health and can consume her allies’ HP, it's a no-brainer that she needs a good healer to accompany her. Here are some of the best healers you can get in Honkai Star Rail to pair with Castorice:

Gallagher

In HSR version 3.2, the best healer you can pair with Castorice is Gallagher. This 4-star healer can heal his allies using his Skill and Ultimate. Additionally, when Gallagher inflicts Besotted on the enemies, any of his allies attacking those adversaries will regenerate a certain amount of HP.

Since the healing from the Besotted state also replenishes adjacent allies’ HP, it proves to be more valuable for Castoice. On top of his Skill’s healing, this on-hit HP regeneration helps the newly released 5-star to gain an absurd amount of Newbud charge.

Luocha

After Gallagher, Luocha is the second-best healer for Castorice in Honkai Star Rail. Similar to the former, this unit can also grant on-hit healing to his allies through his Passive Talent. Since this healing also replenishes the adjacent allies’ HP, Luocha can effectively heal every unit in the team.

That said, the only downside of using Luocha is that he doesn’t generate as much Newbud charge as Gallagher. Hence, if you want to maximize each unit’s effectiveness of your Castorice team, we recommend using Gallagher over the aforementioned 5-star.

Huohuo

If you don’t want to use either of the abovementioned healers, Huohuo is a viable option, too. Although she doesn’t feature the on-hit healing mechanic, the amount of Newbud charge she can generate in a single healing burst is much higher than them.

If you are not getting Luocha for free from the Stellar Convergence Store, then Huohuo is a good alternative if you pulled for her during the previous Honkai Star Rail patch.

Besides the abovementioned healers, characters such as Lingsha and Bailu can be paired with Castorice.
