With the highly anticipated launch of the new 5-star Remembrance character, Castorice, in Honkai Star Rail, players can now summon her from the dedicated banner. Once Trailblazers have developed Castorice, it is crucial to create a strong team composition that includes characters who effectively synergize with her DPS capabilities, particularly focusing on the inclusion of reliable healers.
This article explores the top healers you can team up with Castorice to optimize her performance in Honkai Star Rail.
Top Healers to Enhance Castorice’s Abilities in Honkai Star Rail
Given that Castorice scales her power based on health and can utilize her allies’ HP, it is essential to pair her with capable healers. Here is a closer look at the most effective healers available in Honkai Star Rail to support Castorice:
1. Gallagher
Gallagher emerges as the top healer for Castorice in version 3.2 of Honkai Star Rail. As a powerful 4-star character, he can heal allies using both his Skill and Ultimate abilities. Moreover, when Gallagher applies the Besotted effect to enemies, allies attacking those foes will recover a portion of their HP, enhancing the overall sustainability of the team.
The added benefit is that healing from the Besotted effect also restores HP to adjacent allies, making Gallagher’s contributions especially valuable for Castorice. His ability to generate Newbud charge significantly amplifies Castorice’s efficiency in battles.
2. Luocha
Luocha stands out as the second-best healer to complement Castorice. This character shares the ability to offer on-hit healing to allies thanks to his Passive Talent, which ensures that healing extends to nearby teammates as well.
However, Luocha’s healing efficiency is slightly outshined by Gallagher, as he generates less Newbud charge. Therefore, if your goal is to optimize the Castorice team, Gallagher may be the preferred choice.
3. Huohuo
For players who prefer alternatives to Gallagher and Luocha, Huohuo is a strong option worth considering. Although she lacks the on-hit healing feature, Huohuo excels in generating a considerable amount of Newbud charge from her healing bursts.
If you did not obtain Luocha from the Stellar Convergence Store, Huohuo serves as a suitable replacement if you managed to pull for her in prior Honkai Star Rail updates.
In addition to the healers mentioned above, other characters like Lingsha and Bailu can also be effectively paired with Castorice.
