Silver Wolf – Honkai Star Rail Character Guide

Wanted posters for Stellaron Hunters can be found on any planet where the Star Express crew arrives. They have incredible bounties on their heads, but no one can track them down in the physical world, much less the digital one.

This is because they have a professional hacker in charge of covering their tracks on the Internet – Silver Wolf. And that’s what we’re going to talk about now.

About the character

Silver Wolf is a genius hacker, for her the whole universe is like an immersive simulation game that you just want to hack. Accessing data is no problem for her, and she will not leave a single trace of hacking, so don’t even hope to hide your secrets.

In battle, the girl follows the path of Nothingness and imposes weakening effects on opponents. For example, she can add a new vulnerability or break through defense. All her attacks resemble video games, so all that’s missing is some mommy jokes in the voice chat to completely humiliate the enemy.

How to get Silver Wolf

Wolf, like other representatives of Stellaron Hunters, belongs to the event 5★ characters. You can get it only during the banners, so wait for the rerun and save up jades. 

The character’s first banner was on June 7, 2023, and the rerun was on December 6, 2023. So, perhaps we will see the hacker in banners again in the near future.

Pros and cons

Pros Cons
  • Can apply a new type of vulnerability to the enemy, depending on the element of the party members.
  • Applies debuffs and can increase damage dealt by damage dealers due to the defense debuff.
  • Does not require eidolons and can play without signature weapons.
  • Can act as a DD support thanks to different upgrade options.
  • There are suitable cones of 4★ rarity. 
  • Can apply the Bind status to enemies and deal additional damage.
  • The element for vulnerability is chosen randomly and may not trigger the one you want if the team has different elements.
  • Really needs a chance to hit effects to be used effectively.
  • Consumes skill points, as the additional vulnerability from the E-shka is temporary and needs to be refreshed.
  • Cannot hit area.

Traces and abilities

Capabilities

Name Type Description
System warning Basic attack Attacks the target enemy with a quantum element.
Allow changes? Skill Has a chance to impose additional vulnerability to one of the allies’ elements on the enemy. Reduces the enemy’s resistance to incoming damage of the added element for 2 turns.

The effect does not trigger if the added vulnerability is of the same type as an existing one.

When using a skill again, another element type may be applied, but only the last one is retained.

Using the skill deals quantum damage.

User banned Superpower After use, decreases the target mob’s defense for 3 turns and hits them with a quantum element based on its own attack power.
Waiting for system response… Talent Silver Wolf can inflict three different Bugs:

·         decrease attack power;

·         decreased protection;

·         decrease in speed.

Each attack has a chance to inflict one of the Bugs.

Forced Exit Program Technique Hits the enemy and starts the fight, dealing quantum damage to all mobs on the field. Ignores vulnerability and reduces the stamina bar of all enemies. If the stamina is broken, all mobs receive the Bind effect.

Traces

Name When does it open? Description
Generation 2 rise Each Bug applied lasts 1 turn longer, and breaking through an enemy’s vulnerability has a 65% chance of causing a random Bug.
Implementation 4th rise Added vulnerability lasts 1 turn longer.
Note 6th rise When an enemy has 3 or more debuffs, their damage resistance to all types is reduced by an additional 3%.

Light cone

Icon Name Characteristics Description
The rain never stops The wearer gains 20-40% chance to hit effects. When dealing damage to a target enemy that already has 3 or more debuffs, the critical hit chance is increased by 12-20%.

After using any attack, there is a 100% chance to place an Ethereal Code debuff on the enemy, increasing incoming damage by 12-20% for 1 turn.

Signature weapons obviously work best. Also, the gun itself is pretty versatile and could be used on Black Swan or Sampo, for example, if you need to rebuild your characters.
Before the start of the training mission Provides a 20-40% chance to hit effects. If the attack hits an enemy with reduced defense, the wearer restores 4-8 units of energy to the ult. An excellent replacement for a signature weapon, but you can only get it as part of an event that was back in version 1.1.
The Victim’s View The wearer gains a 20-40% chance to hit effects. And also increases periodic damage by 24-48%. We don’t need the second part of the passive, but the first one allows us to get the percentage of SHPE that the Wolf needs. So if you have a cone with awakenings, feel free to put it.
Determination shines like pearls of sweat If the enemy hit by the attack does not have the Catch status on them, then there is a 60-100% chance that this status will be applied to them.

Enemy’s Defense with Catch is reduced by 12-16% for 1 turn.

Another good option to maximize the debuffs applied and make the enemy feel as humiliated as possible.
In the name of peace Damage to enemies with debuffs increases by 24-40%. After using E, the wearer’s chance of being hit by effects increases by 18-30%, and his attack power increases by 24-40%. An excellent cone for a combo build in a DD support. Gives a lot of stats to the wearer and allows you to hit harder. And also gives a SPE, which is also always useful.

Relics

Cave relics

We have two full sets and several 2+2 builds for useful stats. You can combine them depending on your needs and plans, so feel free to experiment.

The genius of the diamond stars is our option if Silver Wolf is in the support DD position. The thing is that the set increases the wearer’s own damage. Two parts give 10% quantum damage, and 4 parts allow you to ignore 10% of the defense when hitting and another 10% if the enemy has a vulnerability to the quantum element. 

Meteor Thief is generally relevant for many characters in the Void, but it works on Wolf for one simple reason: since she belongs to the quantum crowd, when she pierces vulnerability, she applies Bind to the enemy, which delays the turn and deals additional damage. So she needs this set for the additional damage.

Two parts provide 16% penetration effect, 4 parts provide another 16% EP and restore 3 units of ult energy if the wearer has penetrated the vulnerability.

And then there are 2+2 combos. And the first of them is Genius of Diamond Stars + Herald, wandering in the hacker space . At the output we get 10% quantum damage and 6% speed additionally. Both stats are useful for our hacker, so if there is no full set, collect combinations.

Well, another option is Genius of the Diamond Stars + Discoverer of the Dead Waters . Receives 10% quantum damage and 12% damage increase to enemies with debuffs. An alternative build for a DD support, which works great, because the Wolf can apply debuffs herself.

Planar decorations

There are many options here and you can choose the one that suits you best based on your final pack. Or prepare several sets and simply change them.

Pan-Galactic Commercial Enterprise gives 10% chance to hit effects and increases the wearer’s attack power by 25% of the SPE, but not more than 25%. This set is best suited for any build, as it gives the most needed stats for the Wolf.

Live Vonvac is worth putting if you have problems with speed and energy recovery. The set gives 5% energy recovery speed, and if the wearer’s speed is equal to or exceeded 120 units, then his turn is advanced by 40% at the beginning of the battle.

The Ageless Fleet is also suitable for strengthening the team. The set increases the wearer’s HP by 12% and gives 8% attack to all allies if the Wolf’s speed is at least 120 units. Another advantage of choosing the set is that your character will become a little stronger in battle and will not die so quickly (probably, because we all know how enemies love to hit supports…).

Dreamland Penakonia completes our selection. The set itself is great, but only works in a monoquantum pack, or with a quantum damager (Zele, Xueyi or Qingque). We get 5% energy recovery speed, and all allies of the same element as the wearer will hit 10% harder.

Commands for Silver Wolf

Silver Wolf is a great all-round support, so there are quite a few packs with her. But we will look at the most interesting, and, at the time of writing, meta squads.

And let’s start with the Acheron team. Wolf fits in perfectly with it, as he can cut defense and throw debuffs at enemies. The pack includes:

  • Acheron;
  • Silver Wolf;
  • Sang;
  • Gallagher.

The second team is a monoquant. Here you can play around with the choice of DD, but the rest of the squad will not change. The only downside is that the squad with Zele and Fu Xuan is very expensive, because it consists of 4 event characters at once.

This pack contains:

  • Silver Wolf;
  • Green/Xueyi/Qingque;
  • Sparkle;
  • Fu Xuan/Lynx.

The third option is teams of the 2-element type. There may be several options here as well. We will offer 3, with wind, ice and imaginary damage.

The squad includes:

  • Silver Wolf;
  • Blade/Jingliu/Doctor Ratio;
  • Armor/Pela/Yukun;
  • Lynx/Fu Xuan.

Eidolons

Level Name Description
1 Social engineering If the enemy has any debuffs, Silver Wolf will restore 7 energy for each after using his ultimate, for a total of 35 energy at a time.
2 Botnet When an enemy appears on the battlefield, their resistance to effects is immediately reduced by 20%.
3 Payload +2 levels in skill, +2 levels in talent.
4 Forwarding port After activating the ult, for each weakening on the enemy, the character deals additional quantum damage equal to 20% of the attack power. In total, up to 5 strengthened blows can be triggered after the ult.
5 Brute force +2 levels to ult, +1 level to basic attack.
6 Overlay network For each weakening on the enemy, Silver Wolf deals 20% more damage, for a total of 100% more damage.

Now you know how to assemble the Silver Wolf and your squad will become even stronger. And remember that if he wants, this little hacker will hack all your data, so don’t be lazy when assembling.
