Best Sam Build In Honkai Star Rail

Honkai: Star Rail features various characters with different abilities and elements, and adding these characters to your account is one of the main draws to the game. Now that players have finally been given a glimpse of Sam thanks to the recent Jepella Rebellion video, needless to say, many players are excited to add this Stellaron Hunter to their account. 

If you are lucky enough to get Sam, it is essential to not only upgrade him to the highest level but also use the best Light Cones and Relics to make ensure he can live up to his potential.

That's where we come in. Here is the best build for Sam in Honkai: Star Rail to help you beat enemies easily.

Honkai Star Rail: Best Sam Build

Sam is a five-star Fire Destruction character that, according to leaks, will consume his own HP in order to deal damage. The following best build is based on the leaked information currently available for Sam. We will endeavor to keep this article updated as soon as new information is revealed. 

Best Light Cone

The best Light Cone for Sam will likely be the one released alongside his banner. However, because Sam consumes his own HP, it is likely that Blade's Light Cone, The Unreachable Side, will be very good on him.

The Unreachable Side

Increase the wearer's CRIT Rate and Max HP by 18%. After the wearer is attacked or consumes their own HP, increases the wearer's DMG by 24%. This effect is dispelled after the user uses an attack.

Best Relics

There are two sets to use with Sam. Players can use either the Longevous Disciple set, or the Firesmith of Lava Forging set. 

Firesmith of Lava Forging:

  • 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Fire DMG by 10%.

  • 4-Piece Bonus: Increases the wearer's Skill DMG by 12%. After unleashing Ultimate, increases the wearer's Fire DMG by 12% for next attack.

Longevous Disciple:

  • 2-Piece Bonus: Increases Max HP by 12%.

  • 4-Piece Bonus: When the wearer is hit or has their HP consumed by an ally or themselves, their CRIT Rate increases by 8% for 2 turn(s) and up to 2 stacks.

As mentioned, the following information is subject to change once Sam finally makes his playable debut in Honkai Star Rai. We will endeavor to keep this article updated with any changed information so you can ensure your Sam has the best build possible. 

And that's everything you need to know about the best Sam build in Honkai Star Rail.
