As usual, Firefly is at the top of the list. Since the meta in Honkai Star Rail 2.4 is shifting more towards Break Effect damage, Firefly's popularity is not surprising. To this date, she was the most anticipated character of this gacha title from HoYoverse. Therefore, a considerable amount of players have rolled for her during the first phase of version 2.3.

Right behind Firefly is Boothill. He is one of the first Break Effect damage dealers in this title who follows The Hunt Path. Similar to Firefly, he can unleash his full potential when placed in a Hypercarry Break Effect team composition.

The rest of the list sees Himeko, Topaz & Numby, Yunli, and Dr. Ratio. These four units specialize in unleashing follow-up attacks which allow them to deal a ridiculous amount of damage to adversaries. The synergy among these characters is quite strong; therefore, players are recommended to at least pair two of these units in a team for the best result.

Apart from these meta-defining characters, Sushang was surprisingly the seventh-most-used. As she is one of the free-to-play 4-star units, more players have access to her than the abovementioned premium characters.

Among all the characters at the bottom of the list, we can also see Jingliu. Right after her debut, she was one of the meta-defining characters but soon fell out of the meta when the Weakness Break Effect teams started gaining popularity.
