Honkai Star Rail Hook Build Guide 2023

Best Hook Builds

Hook is one of the 4-star fire characters in Honkai Star Rail. Hook can be built in a variety of ways, but most players build her as a DPS. She possesses Destruction, which allows her to deal damage to a single target and place fire dots on other enemies. She is ok for new players, but she does not perform that well in the late game when you compare her to other characters. So when you get better DPS replace her. Hook is a C-tier character in Honkai Star Rail.

We will update this guide with more information when the game officially releases. If you want to see how well Hook performs compared to other characters, you can check out the Honkai Star Rail Tier list. Also, remember to redeem all Honkai Star Rail codes, which will grant you some fantastic items.
