According to the author, Seele without Eidolon is very good and can deal massive damage to enemies with any Weakness.

However, when talking about Eidolon, of course the addition of Eidolon will make Seele's ability to deal damage even more optimal.

Seele's 6th Eidolon is the best choice for Seele. If you can't get Eidolon 6, VCGamers recommends Eidolon 1 (E1) which increases the Crit Rate.

Or you can also target Eidolon 2 (E2) which can increase SPD which really helps utilize Seele's Skills and Talents.

Seele's talent, namely Resurgence Seele, will enter buff mode which is obtained after defeating an enemy using Basic ATK, Skill, or Ultimate.

Automatically, Seele will receive an additional turn and Seele's attack DMG will increase by 40% for 1 turn.

This condition will make the enemy quickly defeated. However, you need to note that enemies defeated in the additional turn given by Resurgence will not trigger another Resurgence.

Seele's technique is Phantom Illusion, Seele will enter a mode called Stealth mode.

This Stealth Mode will be active for a duration of 20 seconds. While Stealth is active, Seele cannot be detected by enemies because it will take the form of a shadow and SPD increases.

When entering battle mode and Seele's turn to attack an enemy, Seele will immediately enter a buff condition which increases all DMG from Seele's Trace.

All the Trace kits from Seele are very useful. These five Traces benefit each other in buffing all of Seele's attacks and strengthening each Trace.

Seele's best rotation is using Technique, followed by Skill several times, and Ultimate.

So, recommendations trace priority for Seele it is Skill > Talent > Ultimate > Technique = Basic ATK.

Seele needs a high Crit Rate, ATK and SPD so she needs a Light Cone that can provide these 2 or 3 stats.

The Light Cone with the best 5 star rarity for Seele is In the Night. You can also use Cruising in the Stellar Sea or Sleep Like the Dead.

Swordplay, Only Silence Remain, or Return to Darkness can be choices for a 4 star Light Cone if you still haven't got a 5 star Light Cone.

Meanwhile, new players in the early stages of the game can use Arrows or Darting Arrows which are 3 star Light Cones.

Recommended Team Composition (Party Setup) for Build Seele Honkai Star Rail

Seele Party Setup (source: VCGamers)

Seele will be very good for you to build in the Hypercarry team. This means that the focus of the DPS role or the biggest damage giver is given to Seele.

Meanwhile, the other 2 slots are intended for characters that have a support function, such as the Harmony path which can buff damage or the Nihility path which can debuff enemies.

You can use the remaining slots for Support characters who can protect Seele from dying quickly, such as the Preservation path which can provide a shield or the Abundance path character which can restore HP.

So, the formula for Seele's build composition is Seele + 2 Support buff characters (Harmony or Nihility) + 1 Support HP character (Preservation or Abundance).

The following are some examples of Seele's party recommendations according to the author:

  • Seele + Yukong + Silver Wolf + Luocha
  • Seele + Asta + Trailblazer (Preservation) + Natasha
  • Seele + Bronya + Tingyun + Bailu
  • Seele + Pela + Bronya + March 7th
  • Seele + Bronya + Pela + Gepard
  • Seele + Trailblazer Preservation + Bronya + Tingyun
  • Seele + Tingyun + Asta + Gepard

If you are fighting an enemy with more than 1, the author recommends pairing Seele with an Erudition character like Jing Yuan compared to a Destruction path character like And Heng Imbibitor Lunae.

The reason is that the Destruction path has a tendency to enhance which takes up quite a lot of Skill Points.
