How to make the best Honkai team comp

Knight of Purity Palace Belobog of the Architects |
The sub-stats for all characters in this build in of priority are as follows:
- Dan Heng: Crit > Attack % > Speed > Break
- Serval: Crit > Attack % > Speed > Break
- Asta: Speed > Break > Crit > Attack %
- Trailblazer (Fire): Defence % > Defence > Speed > Effect Resistance
Since you're guaranteed to pull Asta from your first RPG game's tutorial.
Dan Heng is your main DPS, and his skill to reduce enemy speed upon a critical hit compliments Asta's own ability to manipulate the turn order in your favor via speed buffs. Serval picks up the slack as the other DPS character, relying on Lightning damage over time to slowly whittle down the enemy along with burst AoE from her skill to pick off stragglers that have managed to survive Dan Heng. Alongside her speed bonus, Asta boosts the damage output for your DPS units, while March 7th uses her shields to protect allies while chipping away at enemies with follow-up attacks whenever those shielded allies are attacked.
Once you've wrapped up the Belobog questline, we recommend replacing March 7th with Trailblazer (Fire). Feel free to kit her out with the Texture of Memories () or Amber (F2P) Honkai Star Rail Light Cone, along with the Knight of Purity Palace and Belobog of the Architects for her Relics. Trailblazer (Fire)'s sub-stats would be distributed as Defence % > Defence > Speed > Effect Resistance.
