Misha | Honkai: Star Rail

Overview

Ice Destruction damage dealer whose bouncing Ultimate gains hits as the team spends Skill Points.

Role

Ultimate-focused damage dealer with conditional Freeze control.

Playstyle

Build Ultimate hits through team spending and Skill, then release the burst against a small target group during useful buffs.

Why It Works

Talent converts Skill Point consumption into Ultimate hits and Energy, while repeated hits give several Freeze attempts.

Watch For

Only the first Ultimate hit chooses a target; the remaining hits are random. Earlier casting can be correct when Freeze or a finishing blow matters more than maximum hit count.

Playstyle

Combat Flow

Track the next Ultimate's hit count while allies spend Skill Points. Use Skill when its damage and extra hit justify the cost, or Basic when the team needs resources. Cast Ultimate with buffs active, targeting the enemy that needs the first Freeze attempt.

Key Notes

Ultimate starts with three hits and normally builds to ten before Eidolon additions.
Release raises the first hit's Freeze base chance by 80 percentage points; later hits keep their lower base chance.
Interlock supplies Effect Hit Rate only during Ultimate, and Transmission adds CRIT DMG against Frozen targets.
Do not assume every hit is guaranteed to Freeze or land on the chosen enemy.
Holding a capped Ultimate too long wastes further potential hit generation and may miss useful control.

Build & Investment

Light Cones

Primary

On the Fall of an Aeon

Attacks build ATK, with a temporary damage bonus when Misha inflicts Weakness Break.

Alternative

Thus Burns the Dawn

Adds base SPD and DEF ignore. Its post-Ultimate damage buff expires at the start of the turn, so timing determines which later damage benefits.

Alternative

A Secret Vow

Adds damage, with a second bonus conditional on the enemy's HP percentage being at least Misha's.

Relics

Primary

Scholar Lost in Erudition

Increases Ultimate and Skill damage, then boosts the next Skill after Ultimate.

Alternative

Hunter of Glacial Forest

Adds Ice damage and two turns of CRIT DMG after Ultimate.

Planars

Primary

Firmament Frontline: Glamoth

Adds ATK and damage at 135 or 160 SPD.

Alternative

Inert Salsotto

At 50% CRIT Rate, boosts Ultimate damage. Misha does not have a native follow-up attack.

Secure useful actions, then balance CRIT and ATK for the bouncing Ultimate. A dedicated Freeze-control build needs separate enemy-resistance planning.

Eidolon Investment

E0 provides hit stacking and Freeze attempts. E2 adds conditional DEF reduction and E6 improves damage and Skill Point use; neither makes Freeze or random targeting guaranteed.

Aeon supplies ATK; premium alternatives change stats and timing without removing the Ultimate's target randomness.

Ultimate gains one extra hit per enemy on the field, up to five additional hits for that cast.

Before each Ultimate hit, there is a 24% base chance to reduce that target's DEF by 16% for three turns.

Adds six percentage points to each Ultimate hit's damage multiplier.

Ultimate grants 30% damage until the turn ends, and the next Skill refunds one Skill Point.

Teams

Recommended Teammates

Sunday

Sunday supplies Energy, CRIT buffs and an extra Misha action. Time the Ultimate within those buffs and budget Misha's Skill Points.

Bronya

Bronya can advance Misha and boost a burst taken during her short Skill buff. Ensure the chosen Ultimate timing actually retains that buff and leave resources for both Skills.
