Honkai Star Rail Topaz Build

Numby is here, along with his partner – Honkai Star Rail’s Topaz. Just kidding, Topaz is the star here even if her little Warp Trotter buddy is adorable. She’s a debt collector for the Interastral Peace Corporation and is a five-star, fire-wielding unit, specializing in follow-up damage and buffing her team. Here’s the best Topaz build to max out her damage.

Here’s everything you need to know about building Honkai Star Rail’s Topaz (and Numby):

What’s the best Honkai Star Rail Topaz build?

Topaz is a five-star, fire-using character who follows the path of The Hunt.

Best light coneWorrisome, Blissful
Light cone substitutesSleep Like The Dead, Swordplay
Best relic setAshblazing Grand Duke
Planar ornamentsDuran, Dynasty of Wolves
Main statsBody – Crit rate/damage
Feet – Attack
Link rope – Attack
Planar sphere – Fire damage bonus
Sub statsCrit rate, crit damage, attack, speed

Topaz specializes in follow-up attacks and relies on crit stats to really pack a punch. Her piggy friend Numby features in most of her attacks. The drawback with Topaz is that she only really deals single-target damage, but can really help in a follow-up and debuff-centered team.

The overall best light cone you can equip Topaz with is her signature ‘Worrisome, Blissful’, but a good Hunt-aligned cone that boosts follow-up damage will also work. As for relics, you want to get her a good set of Firesmith of Lava-Forging to boost her fire damage and focus on attack, crit, and speed substats.

How do I use Topaz?

Topaz excels as a sub-DPS (though Numby is the true star of the show) and as a support unit for characters that deal in follow-up attacks. Her kit allows her to improve the damage that her follow-ups deal to a ridiculous point.

If you’re focusing on a sub-DPS Topaz, then using her skill increases the damage enemies take from follow-up attacks from her and other party members. If you’re using her as your main DPS, then using buffers like Asta, March 7th, or Tingyn will improve her personal damage. And Numby’s, let’s not forget about Numby!

What is the best Topaz light cone?

Topaz’s best light cone is her signature, Worrisome, Blissful. However, if you’re not in a position to pull for that, any of these other Hunt light cones will be good for Topaz.

Worrisome, BlissfulThis light cone increases Topaz and Numby’s crit rate by 18%. Her follow-up damage gets a 30% increase as well. When Topaz uses a follow-up attack, the target gets the Tame state. This can stack two times. When Topaz or other teammates hit this target, each stack of Tame it has increases your crit damage by 12%Light cone banner
SwordplayEach time Topaz hits the same target, her damage increases by 8%, stacking up to five times. This is reset when she changes targetsAll banners
Cruising in the Stellar SeaIncreases Topaz’s crit rate by 8%, and increases her crit rate against enemies with 50% or less HP by a further 8%. When she defeats an enemy, her attack increases by 20% for two turnsPurchase from Herta’s Store
Only Silence RemainsIncreases Topaz’s attack by 16%. If there are two or fewer enemies on the field, her crit rate increases by 12%All banners
Darting ArrowWhen Topaz defeats an enemy, her attack increases by 24% for three turnsAll banners

What are the best relics for Topaz?

To get the best damage out of Topaz, the best relics to equip her with is a full set of the Ashblazing Grand Duke. Remember to keep an eye on substats, too, but aim for a fire-damage-boosting piece in there. If you plan on having at least one debuff on enemies at all times, you can use a full set of Pioneer Diver of Dead Waters on Topaz to up the damage her, and her teammates, deal to said debuffed enemies.

Relics

The Ashblazing Grand DukeTwo pieces: Increases follow-up damage by 20%

Relic stat recommendations

When equipping Topaz and Numby with relics, there are some stats you should look out for.

Main stats:

  • Body: Crit damage
  • Feet: Attack/%
  • Planar sphere: Fire damage boost
  • Link rope: Attack

Sub-stats:

  • Crit rate/damage (aiming for a 1:2 ratio)
  • Attack/%
  • Speed

What are the best Topaz team comps?

Topaz (and Numby) work very well in a mono-fire or almost mono-fire team comp, though any units focusing on follow-up damage – like Jing Yuan – are welcome. Topaz is a key teammate for Dr. Ratio and Feixiao, who both appreciate follow-up attacks.

Buffers such as Asta and Robin will help to improve Topaz’s performance. And Numby’s, of course.

What are Topaz’s abilities?

Topaz and Numby work together to deal damage on the field, and here’s what their skills do for us.

Active skills

Basic attackDeficit…
Topaz deals fire damage equal to 90% of Topaz’s attack to a single enemy
SkillDifficulty Paying?
Topaz inflicts the Proof of Debt state on a single enemy, increasing damage taken by follow-up attacks by 43%. This only takes effect on the most recent target.
If no enemies are inflicted with Proof of Debt when an ally’s turn starts, Topaz inflicts a random enemy with the state.
Numby deals five damage equal to 131% of Topaz’s attack to this target. Using this skill counts as a follow-up attack
UltimateTurn a Profit!
Numby enters the Windfall Bonanza state, where its damage and crit damage increase. Every time an ally’s skill, basic attack, or ultimate hits an enemy inflicted with Proof of Debt, Numby’s action moves forward. After Numby launches a set number of attacks, this effect dispels

Talent

Trotter Market!?Topaz summons Numby at the start of the battle. Numby has 80 speed by default. When Topaz makes a move, Numby launches follow-up attacks on a single enemy afflicted with Proof of Debt, dealing fire damage equal to 131% of Topaz’s attack.
When enemies afflicted with Proof of Debt receive an ally’s follow-up attacks, Numby’s action advances forward 50%

Technique

Explicit SubsidyTopaz summons Numby while on a map outside of combat, who seeks out trotters and treasure chests in the nearby area. Warp trotters don’t get scared of its presence and will approach Numby.
