Listed below are some tips that will help players master Rappa’s playstyle in Honkai Star Rail:

• First off, make sure you have the appropriate Relic pieces and team composition for Rappa. otherwise, her efforts along with the rest of the team would be for naught, since units with little to no synergy with Rappa cannot unleash her maximum potential.
• Moreover, when fighting, focus on getting Rappa’s ultimate as quickly as possible to make sure she enters the Sealform state fast.
• While it’s active, try to hit the enemies whose toughness bar is almost depleted to bring out as much damage as you can. You can also hit any enemies you like with the last hit as it deals damage to all enemies, unlike the first two hits.
• If Rappa's SPD is moderate to high, she will easily get her ultimate back after losing the Sealform state. Activate it again and repeat the process until the fight ends.
• Additionally, make sure to use your buffers, such as Harmony MC and Ruan Mei’s or whichever support unit is the team, before Rappa’s turn, or just make sure that their buffs keep running at all times.
