Lingsha has returned in a rerun banner for Honkai Star Rail, bringing her Fire Abundance support and Break-focused utility back into the spotlight. She is a 5-star Fire Abundance character best known for combining healing, Break support, speed plays, and utility in both Break-centric compositions and sustain-oriented teams. This detailed guide walks through Light Cones, relics, stat priorities, team synergies, trace focus, and how to make Lingsha shine in your roster.

How Lingsha Works

Lingsha plays as a healing and Break support hybrid, wielding Fire damage and abilities that both restore HP to allies and increase Break Effect and Break Damage taken by foes. Her Skill deals Fire damage, heals allies based on her ATK, and advances Fuyuan, her summoned companion, which then performs follow-up attacks and additional healing. Her Ultimate inflicts the Befog status, making enemies take increased Break damage while healing the team and dealing AoE Fire damage.

She is particularly effective in Breakdown or Super Break teams, where her kit helps enemies lose Toughness faster and increases overall Break performance for allies like Firefly or other Break DPS.

Best Light Cones for Lingsha

Light Cones are a major part of what makes Lingsha effective. Here are the most recommended options:

Scent Alone Stays True

This is her best-in-slot Light Cone because it provides a massive Break Effect boost and also inflicts a state (Woefree) that increases the damage enemies take after Lingsha’s Ultimate. This directly supports both her healing and Break support roles.

Other Strong Choices

• Echoes of the Coffin: Good ATK increase, energy regen, and speed buff after Ultimate, helping energy generation and action frequency.
• Night of Fright: Boosts energy regeneration and ATK, which helps her get more frequent Ultimates on average.
• Shared Feeling (4★): A free-to-play option that improves outgoing healing and energy regen for allies.
• What Is Real (4★): Another accessible choice that can provide Break Effect and utility early on.

Best Relics and Planar Ornaments

Relic Sets

Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge (4-Piece)
This is the top relic set for Lingsha if you want Break support. It boosts her Break Effect and, at high Break Effect thresholds, allows her Break and Super Break damage to ignore enemy DEF, improving both support and damage roles.

Alternatives include combining 2-pc Iron Cavalry with 2-pc Watchmaker Traversing Hackerspace for a mix of Break Effect and Speed, or using Passerby of Wandering Cloud for outgoing healing and sustainability if you want stronger healing focus.

Planar Ornaments

• Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern: Excellent choice if enemies have Fire Weakness, as it grants extra Break Effect when Lingsha hits Weakness.
• Talia: Kingdom of Banditry: Provides Break Effect boosts based on Speed, ideal if you build her with high Speed.

Stat Priorities

To get the most out of Lingsha’s kit, aim for the following stats:

Main Stat Suggestions

• Body Relic: Outgoing Healing Boost
• Feet Relic: Speed
• Planar Sphere: ATK%
• Link Rope: Energy Regeneration or Break Effect% (if not already covered by Light Cone effects)

Substat Priority

1. Speed (SPD): high speed means more actions and faster Ultimates.
2. Break Effect: core to both increased ATK/healing and Break performance.
3. ATK%: supports healing and damage scaling.
4. Energy Regeneration: helps get Ultimates ready earlier.

Aim for around 151+ Speed if you want smoother turn orders and frequent Ultimates, though scales higher speed is always beneficial.

Best Team Compositions

Here are some great team builds that make use of Lingsha’s strengths:

Super Break Support Team

• Lingsha (Fire, Abundance) — Support/Break buff and healing
• Firefly (Destruction) — Main Break DPS
• Ruan Mei (Harmony) — Damage and support synergy
• The Dahlia (Nihility) — Defense shred and Super Break

This team takes full advantage of Lingsha’s Break buffs and her ability to make enemies take more Break damage through Befog.

Free-to-Play Friendly Team

• Lingsha (Support/Heal)
• March 7th (Imaginary) – Healer/Support utility
• Harmony Trailblazer – Break synergy
• Asta – Speed/Support

This setup is very accessible while keeping Lingsha’s team alive and maximizing action frequency.

Balanced Utility Team

• Lingsha
• Firefly
• Ruan Mei
• Jade or Himeko – Extra damage or utility

A well-rounded option that improves survivability while still capitalizing on Break mechanics.

Gameplay Tips

• Lingsha’s healing and Break utilities work together well because her healing scales with ATK and Break Effect, giving her built-in synergy for both sustain and support.
• Her Ultimate not only heals but also inflicts Befog, increasing how much Break damage enemies take for multiple turns — great for Break teams focused on destroying enemy Toughness.
