After The Herta’s release, she has become one of the best Erudition damage dealers. Hence, her having a 62.79% pick rate in Honkai Star Rail 3.0 Memory of Chaos is not surprising. Besides DPS units, most characters in the list are either sustainers or buffers. Units such as Robin, Ruan Mei, and Aventuerine can be placed in most team compositions without getting handicapped.

Among the three, Aventurine is currently the best sustainer Trailblazers can acquire, while Ruan Mei is the best buffer. Since the latter’s buffs are universal, characters from any playstyle can utilize this Genius Society member’s abilities.

Characters like Sunday and Remembrance MC are also quite popular among players. Since Aglaea joined the playable character roster, these units can now showcase their kit’s true power. Besides the aforementioned Remembrance character, these two can also be paired with The Herta and be just as effective.

Although the BE playstyle is still quite popular among Trailblazers, Lingsha, Fugue, and Firefly’s pick rate being 42.83%, 39.29%, and 32.41%, respectively is surprising. However, these characters can only be utilized to their fullest when grouped together as their abilities mostly grant/deal Break Effect-oriented buffs/damage.
