Players are finally able to recruit another five-star Imaginary character now that Luocha has made his way into Honkai: Star Rail. If you’re looking to add the Abundance character to your roster and use his healing skillset to last through any battle, then you’ll need to equip him with the best Relics available.

Since Honkai: Star Rail is still a fairly new release, Luocha is likely to become a popular recruit among players who have yet to obtain any of the games featured five-star forces. Those who progressed through most of the playable story that the game launched with also got a chance to test Luocha out, which likely resulted in many players deciding they wanted to add him to their roster for real when he finally became recruitable.

The debut run of Luocha’s banner is running for the second half of the Version 1.1 update, which is Honkai: Star Rail’s first update since the game launched on April 23. His “Laic Pursuit” featured banner is available for players to pull on from June 28 until July 18.

Relics are a crucial and critical aspect of character building in Honkai: Star Rail, but since there are lots of powerful Relics to choose from, figuring out which ones are best for Luocha can be a tough task. Luckily, there are only a handful of sets that will truly help him shine, which will make the Relic gathering process much easier for Trailblazers who recruit him.

What are the best Relics for Luocha in Honkai: Star Rail?

For Luocha’s main four-piece Relic set, there are currently only two viable options. Based on my experience with Genshin Impact, another game by miHoYo, it is highly likely that more Relics will be released in the future.

Honkai: Star Rail has so far followed in Genshin’s footsteps with how most of the game’s functionality works, which means as new updates occur, so too are more Relics likely to be slowly added. If new viable Relics surface for Luocha, they will be added here.

For now, players can either choose to equip one of two full four-piece sets or mix and match between them with a two-piece set of both for Luocha’s main four-piece Relic slots.

  • Passerby of Wandering Cloud
    • Rarity: Two-star, three-star, four-star, or five-star
    • Two-piece effect: Raises the equipping character’s outgoing healing by 10 percent.
    • Four-piece effect: At the start of a battle, the Passerby of Wandering Cloud set immediately restores one skill point.
    • Location: Cavern of Corrosion, Echo of War, Treasures, and Synthesizing Relics

Since Luocha’s strength is his healing skillset, this set is a strong option for him. The two-piece set is the truly powerful part, while the four-piece set is helpful but generally not the best choice overall for him. Because of this, players may want to consider only using the two-piece of the Passerby of Wandering Cloud set alongside the other option.

  • Wastelander of Banditry Desert
    • Rarity: Two-star, three-star, four-star, or five-star
    • Two-piece effect: Raises the equipping character’s Imaginary damage by 10 percent.
    • Four-piece effect: When hitting debuffed enemies, the equipping character’s critical rate is increased by 10 percent. If the targeted enemy is also imprisoned, then critical damage is raised by 20 percent.
    • Location: Cavern of Corrosion, Echo of War, Treasures, and Synthesizing Relics

Even though Luocha is not a damage-focused character, raising his Imaginary damage capabilities is still a powerful choice, which is why players may want to consider the Wastelander of Banditry Desert Relic set. Generally, the four-piece set isn’t a great choice for him unless you have a powerful debuffer like Silver Wolf on the team with him, but the two-piece set pairs extremely well with the two-piece Passerby of Wandering Cloud set.

What are the best Planar Ornaments for Luocha in Honkai: Star Rail?

Planar Ornaments fall under the larger Relic category but work differently since they are only available in two-piece sets obtainable through Herta’s Simulated Universe. Players can’t mix and match between these sets since only two slots can be equipped with Planar Ornaments for each character, but luckily the two-piece sets still grant immensely powerful buffs.

  • Fleet of the Ageless
    • Rarity: Two-star, three-star, four-star, or five-star
    • Two-piece effect: Raises the equipping character’s maximum health points by 12 percent. When the wearer’s speed reaches 120 or higher, they then raise all their allies’ attack by eight percent.
    • Location: Simulated Universe and Synthesizing Relics

When you’re building a healer like Luocha, you always want to grant them ample health points so they’ll always be around to heal your team. In Genshin, many healers scale off of health points which makes building their health an easy priority to manage, but Luocha is a bit more complex since he scales off of attack.

While it might be difficult to build Luocha’s health points elsewhere because of this, players can use the two-piece Fleet of the Ageless set to guarantee a powerful increase in his health points.

  • Space Sealing Station
    • Rarity: Two-star, three-star, four-star, or five-star
    • Two-piece effect: Increases the equipping character’s attack by 12 percent. Once the equipping character’s speed reaches 120 or higher, their attack will then be raised by another 12 percent.
    • Location: Simulated Universe and Synthesizing Relics

Since Luocha’s attack is crucial for the scaling of his various skills and abilities, equipping the Space Sealing Station set is also a powerful choice for the Abundance character. Raising Luocha’s attack will increase just about all of his skills, which will result in him becoming a more powerful healer and damage dealer, so it’s a win all around.

While Luocha is a powerful character, pulling for playable units in Honkai: Star Rail is quite costly. Because of this, most players will have to choose between trying to obtain him or saving up for the upcoming leaked characters arriving in the Version 1.2 update.

Deciding whether to pull for Luocha or save up for future recruits is no easy task, but luckily both Luocha and the recruits arriving in Version 1.2 are powerful choices, so players can’t go wrong with either. These recruits are vastly different from each other, so players can either choose Luocha or save for the future based on what kind of character they need most for their roster of playable units.
