A Beginner's Guide to Honkai: Star Rail

How to choose characters:

The main difficulty in the early stages of Honkai: Star Rail is facing single elite enemies, so characters with group damage skills aren't as useful.

There are fewer characters available in the beginning, making it difficult to form a complete team. Prioritize selecting characters that can take damage and healers. The remaining two can be damage dealers or one damage dealer and one support.

In the early stages of the game, try to choose characters that can attack enemy weak points.

Team lineup recommendations:

Seele+Bronya+Healers/Tanks+Anyone

Dan Heng+Welt+Healers/Tanks+Anyone

Tingyun+Pela+tanks+Any damage dealer

Hook+Himeko+Asta+Healers/Tanks

Clara+March 7th+Gepard+Anyone

Artifact selection:

Honkai: Star Rail artifacts have a 4+2 configuration, with the main attributes of head and hand parts being health and attack, respectively. Other parts have random main attributes. In the early game, choose attack for all main attributes, and choose elemental damage for accessories if available. 

Once you reach the mid-game and can choose attributes, select crit rate for the chest piece, speed for shoes, and attack and elemental damage for accessories. Support/healing/tank characters can choose their respective main attributes. 

Before you can farm gold artifacts, don't worry about sub-attributes – just make sure the main attributes are sufficient. If you can't progress in the game's story, first level up your characters and weapon, then upgrade skills and artifacts. Resources are scarce early on, so don't waste them.

How to play in the early stages?

Honkai: Star Rail is essentially a single-player game, so play at your own pace and according to your habits. If there's a main storyline, follow it. If not, complete daily tasks. It takes about 2 hours to reach the snowfield (unlock stamina) and roughly 6 hours to unlock daily tasks. 

Weekly dungeons can be played 3 times – you can either play the same dungeon 3 times or 3 different dungeons. During the leveling process, you might be restricted by the world level, so use stamina appropriately to increase the world level.
