Honkai Star Rail V3.7 pulling advice

Hey Trailblazers! Wanna know which characters are total must-pulls in Version 3.7 of Honkai: Star Rail? This article’s gonna break down each banner character—their roles, their sick abilities, and who’s truly worth your hard-earned pulls. But before we dive in, let’s chat: are you hyped for any 3.7 character, or are you saving up for 3.8 and beyond? Let’s go!

Cyrene

Cyrene is undoubtedly the most controversial character of the 3.7 update. With limited official information available, the following analysis combines existing details and reasonable speculations, covering key concerns and strengths to help you decide.

 

Three Core Concerns About Cyrene

Uncertain Future Viability: Cyrene’s kit is highly tied to the "Chrysos Heirs" character series, providing exclusive buffs for them. However, per version plans, no new Chrysos Heirs will be released after the 3.x cycle. This means future 4.0+ characters will likely not benefit from her exclusive bonuses, narrowing her team compatibility over time.

Energy Generation Relies on Eidolons: Testing indicates Cyrene struggles with ultimate energy recharge without specific eidolons, especially E2. For players seeking "usable at C0," her practicality and investment cost are compromised.

Narrow Team Compatibility: Demo footage shows Cyrene only excels when paired with Chrysos Heirs like Castorice. Players with few Chrysos Heirs or non-Cryo teams may find her hard to integrate into existing lineups.

 

Undeniable Strengths of Cyrene

Despite the above concerns, Cyrene remains a viable support with notable strengths:

Teamwide True Damage Buff: Her skill grants all allies a true damage bonus, applicable to any attack type. This is particularly effective against high-defense enemies and not limited to Cryo units.

Dual Key Ultimate Effects: Cyrene’s ultimate offers two core benefits. First, it fully charges all allies’ ultimates on first use, enabling quick burst rotations. Second, it enhances her bow attacks and summons a "Memosprite" that provides Cryosair-exclusive buffs. The teamwide energy boost alone significantly improves cycle efficiency in specific comps.

 

Final Pull Recommendation

Cyrene’s pull value depends heavily on your account’s current state: if you already have multiple Chrysos Heirs and lack Cryo supports like Tribby, pulling her will notably strengthen your Cryo teams; however, if you have few Chrysos Heirs or prioritize 4.0+ characters, heavy investment in her is not recommended—as her future viability remains uncertain. A critical note: if you plan to pull Cyrene, aim for at least E2 to resolve energy issues, as her C0 experience may be underwhelming.

 

Version 3.7 First Half Reruns

The first half of the patch features three reruns—all strong picks for different team roles.

Castorice

Castras is a top-tier HP-scaling DPS that excels in all endgame modes. Her core mechanic is the “New Bud” charge, which fills when allies gain or lose HP and allows her to summon her Memoite “Netherwing.” She has no Skill Point cost, and Netherwing deals massive damage; frequent summons, depending on team composition, keep her damage output high.

 

Tribbie

Tribbie is a universal support that fits almost any team, thanks to her debuffs and buffs. She grants Ultimate Penetration to the team via her Skill, her Ultimate zone inflicts Vulnerability on two enemies and triggers frequent follow-up attacks, she is a great holder of the Dance! Dance! Dance! Lightcone which provides Action Advance for the team, and her E1 upgrade adds True Damage to follow-up attacks from her zone—calculated from total damage dealt to all enemies, such as 50k damage per enemy resulting in 60k extra True Damage to the highest-HP enemy.

 

Hyacine

Hyacine is one of the best sustain characters in the game as she heals, cleanses, and deals solid damage for a support. She provides frequent healing and team cleansing, her Little Ica companion deals consistent damage to enemies, and her Ultimate activates the After Rain state which increases all allies’ max HP perfect for HP-scaling DPS like Castorice. Her signature Lightcone grants 18% Speed, lets Little Eeka inflict 18% Vulnerability on enemies, and adds teamwide HP drain to all her actions boosting synergy and damage.

Version 3.7 Second Half Reruns

The second half features two DPS characters Phainon, Mydei and a support Cipher, each with distinct playstyles.

Phainon

Phainon is a transformation-focused DPS that thrives in sustainless or semi-sustain teams. His core mechanic is “Core Flame” points—fill them to transform, then fight solo while retaining ally buffs and use “Scourge” points for enhanced attacks, which are gained via enhanced Basic Attacks and counterattacks from enhanced Skills. His best partners include Cerydra, who lets him duplicate his Skill to unlock double meteors in enhanced state; Sunday, who provides Crit Rate/Damage, damage boosts, Action Advance, and Core Flame generation; Bronya, who offers buffs and Action Advance for faster Core Flame gain; and the free Remember Trailblazer, which provides Advance Forward and a True Damage buff. He also works with the new Dan Heng if you prefer using a sustain.

 

Mydei

Mydei is an HP-scaling DPS that uses HP manipulation and a “Charge” mechanic for powerful attacks. His core mechanic revolves around “Charge” points, which are gained by losing HP via his own abilities—100 Charge lets him enter the “Vendetta” state and unleash “Kingslayer Be King” while 150 Charge unlocks the higher-damage “Godslayer Be God”. His Ultimate regenerates his HP and grants additional Charge, and his best partners include Sunday, Tribbie, Sparkle, Remember Trailblazer, Gallagher, and Luocha, with a fun dual-DPS team option being Mydei paired with Castorice.

 

Cipher

Cipher is a support that amplifies team damage via damage recording and Vulnerability debuffs. She records a percentage of allies’ damage to enemies excluding overflow damage, then uses her Ultimate to deal True Damage based on the recorded value, and she has frequent follow-up attacks while performing better at higher Speed. Her passive inflicts 40% Vulnerability on enemies just by being on the field which boosts all allies’ damage, and she works well with older DPS like Feixiao or Acheron while fitting most team comps.

 

Final Pull Recommendations

1. Tribbie

• Role: Universal Support
• Strengths: Provides teamwide damage increase and all-type resistance penetration, fitting into nearly every mainstream team.
• Priority Reason: Top-tier Harmony character with cross-team viability; her buffs remain valuable across versions.

2. Cyrene

• Role: Chrysos Heirs Support
• Strengths: Grants teamwide true damage and full ally ultimate charge on her own ultimate; offers exclusive buffs to Cryosairs.
• Priority Reason: Strong for accounts with multiple Cryosairs and no Tribby-like Cryo supports.
• Note: Aim for at least E2 to fix energy issues; C0 experience is underwhelming.

3. Castorice

• Role: Top-Tier Cryo DPS
• Strengths: High burst damage, low operational cost, and dominates current endgame content (bosses are designed around her kit).
• Priority Reason: One of the strongest DPS in 3.x; viable with free supports like Luocha.

4. Phainon

• Role: High-Ceiling Cryo DPS
• Strengths: Top-tier burst and sustained damage, especially powerful with Cyrene’s “infinite ult” buff.
• Priority Reason: Strong for accounts with ample 5-star supports; pairs exceptionally well with Cyrene.
• Note: High investment cost; skip if support roster is thin.

5. Hyacine

• Role: Universal Healer
• Strengths: Best-in-slot healer with unmatched healing output; essential for high-difficulty content .
• Priority Reason: Critical for sustain in most meta teams; future-proof as healers remain core in all versions.

6. Cipher

• Role: Sub-DPS / 2.0 DPS Enhancer
• Strengths: Buffs early 2.0 DPS and fits into Castorice/Archer teams as sub-DPS; fun mobility and cat-themed design.
• Priority Reason: Only recommended if you need to strengthen 2.0 units or lack sub-DPS; not a top choice for optimal clears.

7. Mydei

• Role: HP-Scaling Autonomous DPS
• Strengths: No manual control needed; viable in current endgame with proper healers.
• Priority Reason: Lowest priority—only pull if you like his design or have a fully built HP-support roster.
• Note: Risk of power creep in 4.0 as HP meta may decline.

 

Conclusion

Honkai: Star Rail Version 3.7 offers strong picks like permanent Cyrene and reruns of Hyacine, Tribbie, Castorice and more. For most players, supports Hyacine and Tribbie are top priorities, with Cyrene best paired with Hyacine.
