Wave-Chasing Captain at Honkai Star Rail: Who's It for and Where to Find It

В Honkai: StarRail Cave Relics Set The Wave-Chasing Captain increases the character's critical damage value, the effect of the entire set is revealed only after allies have used their targeted skills on the wearer twice. Artifacts can be combined in 2 pieces or installed as a full set on the main damage dealers in hypercarry builds.

Almost any DD can become a potential owner of the set, however, it is really useful only to a limited number of characters. The guide presented a detailed analysis of how the set works and included recommendations for equipping the full set on heroes.

Where to get the set

To get the Wave Chasing Captain in XSR you need to complete the combat trial inside corrosion caves on Amphoreus. As an alternative method of farming the set, you can use the cave relic synthesis system.

Corrosion Cave: Thunderclap Path

The Wave-Chasing Captain set is found in the Corrosion Cave "Thunderclap Path". In this dungeon you can also farm relics from the set Warrior of the Sun and Thunder. Both sets have an equal chance of dropping when clearing a level.

The rarity of the cave relics you receive is affected by the selected level:

• 2⭐ key rewards up to stage II;
• 3-4⭐ can meet at any level;
• 5⭐ drop out from stages III-VI of the test.

Synthesis of Cave Relic Parts

Pri helper function "Synthesis" In chapter "Relics" You can craft a specific part of the Wavestalker Captain set for 100 Relic Fragments. Artifact crafting material is earned by dismantling 5⭐ Artifact Parts from Corrosion Caves or Relics that were farmed in the Virtual Universe.

With the help of self-modeling and miraculous resin it will be possible to choose the main and additional characteristics for the parts "body" and "legs".

How the kit works

• 2 parts: Critical damage +16%.
• 4 parts: When the owner is targeted by another ally's skill, he gains 1 level of Help status, which can be stacked up to 2 times. If the owner has 2 levels of Help status when using the super ability, he spends all levels of this status and increases his attack power by 48% for 1 turn.

The ive property of the set is revealed only when certain conditions are met, which should be taken into when equipping a complete set on a character:

1. Allies must cast their abilities on the artifact owner up to 2 times to gain Assistance levels.
2. The effect can be gained from the same character twice if he uses directed on 1 target skill (ability or superpower) on the wearer of the set.
3. The ATK bonus will only become active after the artifact owner uses the super ability under the effect of 2 stacks of the set (Assistance) effect.
4. The accumulated buff levels will be spent, the hero's attack power will increase by 48%. The buff will spread only for 1 move after the ult.

It should be noted that skills that affect the entire team or 3 targets at once will not add levels of Assistance. In order for the equipped character to gain stacks of artifact enhancement, any ally skill must be targeted and affect only 1 hero - the owner of the set.

Who is the Wave Chasing Captain in HSR for?

The Wave Chasing Captain is suitable for heroes who play from the indicator critical mass и attack power, and can also act as hyper-carries of the team. Such characters are usually ed by two Harmony heroes, with Abundance or Preservation characters as an addition. Sometimes Memory heroes with buffer or healing abilities act as and buffers for DD.

It is recommended to pre-farm the set before the exit Zlatius Phaenona, since the set is signature for the Nameless Hero.

Moon Eater	The set will give Dan Heng a permanent priority crit damage boost and increase his ATK for the attack he performs after using his ult. RџSЂRё E2 Moon Eater's attack after advancing with the skill will immediately receive a buff of 2 levels of Assistance if allies have targeted him twice with their skills in the previous turns.
Argenti	Argenti's next skill or basic attack after using her ult (both the small 90 energy and the large 180 energy) will gain an attack power boost. The two parts of the set combine favorably with the hero's many internal buffs to crit chance from his ive.
Acheron (E2)	The set can be implemented when playing on E2 Acheron, which only requires one Oblivion hero to realize its full DPS potential. Pairs well with gaining a buff from a Harmony or Memory hero in combination with using a targeted heal from an Abundance character.
Himeko	The heroine's damage outside of packs from penetration of vulnerability depends on the critical mass and the attack power indicator. The set enhancement does not apply to Himeko's bonus attack, but it greatly enhances E-shki's damage.

On some legendary characters, in rare cases, you can consider a full set when playing main DD with suitable s. However, for most heroes, there are more profitable sets of artifacts that match the style of play and are suitable for and budget teams:

• Yunli (Destruction, Physical) — are played from counterattacks that are considered bonus attacks and are triggered outside of the characters' turn. The boost from 2 stacks of Help will only work for the skill on "E" during the girls' action.

The set can also work well on 4⭐ heroes of various Paths, which can be played as the main damage dealers of the squad at the start of the game or according to personal preference:

• Destruction - Hook (Destruction: Fire). The set bonus is ideal for heroes due to the increase in critical damage and attack, on which their overall damage depends.
• Hunting - Sushan (Hunting: Physical). A full set of relics synergizes perfectly with the mechanics of the characters and will significantly increase the damage dealt.
• Erudition - Serval (Erudition: Electric). Both girls' builds are built around crits and attack power, so the set can show well in hypercarry squads.
