Huohuo is a timid Foxian girl with a heliobus possessing her tail. Although she is a trainee Judge for the 10 Lords Commission, and her job involves capturing evil spirits, she scares easily and wants nothing to do with strange phenomena. Even so, her attempts to hand in her resignation have been entirely unsuccessful. So she reluctantly carries out her duties.

Huohuo Best Build & Relic Sets
Since Huohuo is a healer with a kit that balances healing and support capabilities, she tends to want to use her Skill more often than healers like Fu Xuan or Luocha. Building her with good HP, SPD, and Effect Resistance will help her stay in the fight and keep the team alive. Here are the Relics and stats you’ll want for her.
2-Set Of Messenger Traversing Hackerspace & 2-Set Of Passerby Of Wandering Cloud
The 2-set of Messenger Traversing Hackerspace increases the wearer’s SPD by 6%. Having good SPD on Huohuo will be necessary since she doesn’t have emergency healing features like Bailu or Luocha. Combining this with the 2-set of Passerby of Wandering Cloud, which gives a 10% Outgoing Healing Bonus, will be sufficient for all your healing needs.
2-Set Of Fleet Of The Ageless
The 2-set of Fleet of the Ageless increases the wearer’s Max HP by 12%, which healers appreciate, and it gives an 8% ATK increase to all allies if the wearer’s SPD reaches 120 or higher. It’s a great set for healers since they can simultaneously gain stats beneficial for healing, while buffing the team’s ATK. With these sets, the main and sub-stats you’ll want to prioritize will be as follows.
Relic | Main Stat | Substats |
|---|---|---|
Head | HP | HP, SPD, Effect RES, Break Effect |
Hands | ATK | HP, SPD, Effect RES, Break Effect |
Body | Outgoing Healing or HP | HP, SPD, Effect RES, Break Effect |
Feet | SPD | HP, SPD, Effect RES, Break Effect |
Sphere | HP | HP, SPD, Effect RES, Break Effect |
Rope | Energy Regeneration Rate or HP | HP, SPD, Effect RES, Break Effect |
It’s important to ensure Huohuo has a good balance of HP and SPD so that she can heal and cleanse your team. Effect RES is also a valuable stat to help her resist debuffs, since an out-of-commission healer puts the entire team in jeopardy. As a benchmark, you’ll want to ensure you at least hit the 120 SPD threshold so that your team can benefit from your Planar Ornament’s ATK buff. And since Huohuo has significant Energy costs, having an Energy Regeneration Rope or her signature Light Cone will help ensure she can get her Ultimate up in a timely manner.
Honkai Star Rail: Complete List Of Relic Sets & Their Effects
If you're looking for a list of all relic sets and their effects in Honkai Star Rail, this guide has you covered.Huohuo Best Light Cones
Huohuo has a number of Light Cone options available to her, depending on the stats you need. Light Cones that boost her Outgoing Healing, HP, Effect RES and Energy Regeneration Rate are all viable options, making her relatively easy to build. Here are some of the best options to choose from.
5-Star Light Cone: Night Of Fright
Huohuo’s signature Light Cone will naturally be her best option. At S1, the Light Cone increases the wearer’s Energy Regeneration Rate by 12%. Additionally, when an ally uses their Ultimate, the wearer restores the HP of the ally with the lowest HP by an amount equal to 10% of the healed ally’s Max HP. What’s great about this Light Cone is that it also has Harmony features, like buffing the healed ally’s ATK by 2.4%. The effect can stack up to 5 times and lasts for 2 turns.
4-Star Light Cone: Post-Op Conversation
This is a great Light Cone option if you are falling short on Energy. It increases the wearer’s Energy Regeneration Rate by 8% at S1. Considering Huohuo’s own ability to provide Energy to her teammates, this Light Cone can turn her into a battery, helping the team get its Ultimates up faster. Its second ability is wasted, however, since it increases Outgoing Healing by 12% when the wearer uses their Ultimate, which is useless on Huohuo whose healing is built into her Skill and Talent.
4-Star Light Cone Alternative: Hey, Over Here
This Light Cone is a great free-to-play option since it’s a free event Light Cone you can obtain with max Superimpositions. At S5, it increases the wearer’s Max HP by 12%. When the wearer uses their Skill, it increases their Outgoing Healing by 28%, which lasts for 2 turns. Since this Light Cone focuses solely on healing, other gacha Light Cones may offer more utility, but if you don’t have their Superimpositions, this Light Cone is a good alternative.

Here's how these 4-Star Light Cones stack up to each other in Honkai Star Rail.Huohuo Best Team Compositions
Huohuo is an extremely versatile healer who can slot into multiple teams and act as their solo sustain unit. Hypercarry teams with non-Skill Point hungry characters like Blade or Jingliu can easily use her, but teams with multiple DPS / sub DPS characters will really shine with her, since she provides a teamwide ATK buff and Energy. The only point of concern would be in Skill Point hungry teams, with characters like Imbibitor Lunae, since Huohuo has needs to use her Skill to heal and cleanse allies. Here are some characters that synergize well with her, as well as good alternatives.
Character | Character Type & Benefits |
|---|---|
Main DPS, deals incredible Ice DMG, and can use the extra Energy provided to Ult faster and stay in her enhanced state. | |
Support, Can buff team's ATK and DMG and regenerate their Energy. | |
Sub DPS, Can provide significant additional DMG, and have synergistic effects (like gaining additional stacks or adding DOTs) with the Main DPS. |
