This guide covers the Light Cones, Relics, Trace priority, stat priority, teams, and Eidolon verdicts for the best Ruan Mei build in HSR, so you know exactly where to put your resources when investing in her.

Ruan Mei is a 5-star Harmony support who buffs the entire party’s damage, Speed, and Break Efficiency at once, and she’s been a staple of Break Effect teams since her release. Her Ultimate also delays enemies from recovering out of Weakness Break, which stacks even more damage onto whatever hit them last.

How to Play Ruan Mei: Rotation and Tips

Ruan Mei’s rotation is fairly simple:

open with her Skill to grant the whole party Overtone, a damage and Break Efficiency buff, then use her Ultimate as soon as it’s ready to add All-Type RES PEN and set up Thanatoplum Rebloom on top of it.

Both effects run on independent timers, so the goal every cycle is to keep at least one of them active on your Break DPS unit before it attacks.

  • Another Trace that makes her such a good Break team enabler is her
  • Talent
  • , which gives the whole team a permanent SPD buff and adds bonus
  • Ice

Break damage whenever an ally triggers a Weakness Break.
