King of the Finishing Move: Saber’s Rise and Glory


Destruction’s Breeze: Saber’s Rise to Glory
In the vast expanse of the Star Rail, a new legend is emerging. Saber, a wind attribute Destruction path character, sweeps across the battlefield like a gust of wind. As the main DPS, her power stems from the frequent casting of her Ultimate, delivering astonishing burst damage. Her combat core lies in the high-efficiency output of her Ultimate, and each Ultimate cast by her teammates infuses her with energy and “Furnace Resonance,” further amplifying her destructive power.
To unlock Saber’s true potential, read this guide carefully. We will recommend the most suitable Light Cones, Relics, and Dimensional Emblems for her and guide you on how to allocate skill points to maximize her combat efficiency.
Saber’s Profile
Saber is a 5-star, wind attribute Destruction path character from Honkai: Star Rail, positioned as the main DPS. Her output core revolves around frequently casting her Ultimate to deal high burst damage. Every time her teammates cast their Ultimate, she gains energy and stacks of “Furnace Resonance,” enhancing her damage output and making her combat style unique. Through her skills, enhanced Basic Attacks, and her teammates’ Ultimates, she continuously stacks “Furnace Resonance” to reach the peak of her damage potential.
Saber’s Progression Guide
On Saber’s growth path, the choice of Main Path is crucial. Below is her priority list:

Main Path: ★★★★★
Ultimate: ★★★★
Skills: ★★★
Talents: ★★
Basic Attacks: ★

Basic Attacks are the least prioritized, as Saber rarely uses them except for the “Enhanced Basic Attack” after casting her Ultimate. Skills are highly important because she needs to quickly recharge her energy. Her Ultimate is her output core and must be prioritized. Upgrading her talents also provides additional damage bonuses and energy recovery.
