Honkai: Star Rail – Best Builds And Light Cones For Tingyun
Tingyun is one of the best four-star support characters in Honkai: Star Rail. Here’s how to get the most out of her with a solid build!
March 7th embodies everything Honkai: Star Rail stands for, as her intoxicating personality and hilarious dialogue will have you on her side the moment you meet her. What’s more is that she’s also a viable option to have in your party and is one of the best sub-support characters in the game, especially with a proper build and team composition.
Updated March 5, 2025, by Seth Parmer: It’s been well over a year since we last touched up March 7th’s guide, and a lot has been added to Honkai: Star Rail since then. As a result, we have updated this guide to include new Light Cones, Ornaments, and a new section that outlines some of her best team compositions, allowing you to make solid use of her skills and prevail in combat!
Best Relics And Planar Ornaments For March 7th
Despite being labeled as a support character, March 7th is more of a sub-support option. She has excellent offensive and defensive options at her disposal, making her remarkably strong in specific situations and with a focused build.
And, with any build, the Relics and Planar Ornaments you choose for March 7th will dictate how effective she is overall during encounters. You can find the best options for her in the tables below, along with explanations of why we chose them and what they do!

Best Light Cones For March 7th
Light Cones are arguably the core element of any build. They compliment each character’s overall playstyle, focusing on their strengths to elevate their effectiveness in combat. The issue here is there are tons of Light Cones in Honkai: Star Rail, which can be intimidating to deal with.
While some Light Cones can only be obtained through Warps (Gacha), there are many excellent free-to-play options you can select from that will give you substantial results without having you open your wallet and pray you get the ones you need.
To differentiate these Light Cones, we have made two tables, one focusing on the Light Cones you can only obtain via Warps and the other being free-to-play friendly.
