As expected, Ruan Mei’s pick rate skyrocketed with a whopping 97.3%. Since the Weakness Break Effect teams are in the meta, she is the best support unit. Apart from the BE team compositions, Ruan Mei can be placed in any team composition since her buffs can benefit any DPS units. Additionally, she just had her rerun banner during the first half of the Honkai Star Rail 2.3 patch, allowing the players to acquire her who didn’t have her already.

Moving over to Firefly, she is the best Break Effect damage dealer in Honkai Star Rail, and her exceptional popularity is no surprise. As she is one of the most anticipated characters, her high pick rate is justifiable. Additionally, she can deal a ridiculous amount of Fire damage to her enemies and is usually paired with Ruan Mei to elevate her damage.

Aventurine (Image via HoYoverse)

Aventurine secures third place, which is quite surprising as the other FUA units are not as popular as him in Honkai Star Rail 2.3 Memory of Chaos. Apart from that, he is an excellent sustainer who can stack shields and unleash follow-up attacks, dealing quite a bit of damage.

Like the abovementioned units, the Harmony Trailblazer and Gallagher also have a good usage rate as they are the mandatory supports for the best Firefly SuperBreak team composition.

Acheron along with Sparkle’s entry in this list is quite foreseeable as both are exceptional units each excelling in their own fields. The former usually teams up with debuffers while the latter gets paired with DPS characters.

Robin, Boothill, and Huohuo also have a good amount of popularity in Honkai Star Rail 2.3 Memory of Chaos. Since Aventurine’s popularity is quite high in this list, Robin’s good usage rate is quite predictable as they usually get placed in the same team compositions. Since BE damage is in meta, Boothill’s pick rate is quite justifiable while Huohuo’s high popularity is rather unusual.
