Best Destinies and Blessings

In this event, what caught Mytour's attention is that the Vitality Destiny is the most chosen, perhaps due to its high damage output and opponent penetration capability. Following that are Destruction and Void, as both DPS elements are 'standardized' when dealing with large numbers of enemies.

Fortune, Protection, and Memory are in the middle group, not because they are weak but because these elements lean towards defense, control, and rely heavily on luck. Of course, there are also very powerful combos using the blessings of these 3 destinies, such as Protection + Spirit Power being one of the easiest playstyles currently.

Meanwhile, Hunting and Joy are at the bottom, perhaps because these destinies are not suitable for the gameplay of the Insect Calamity. Hunting is not suitable for dealing with large numbers of enemies, while Joy focuses on follow-up strikes but currently, there are not many characters with this capability.

Currently, the most popular Blessings, which can help you overcome the Insect Calamity, are ranked from high to low as follows:

• Destruction - Inequation of Destruction: All our faction shares the damage they have to endure.
• Vitality - Bao Tử's Display: When the character consumes Battle Points, all enemies will receive Bao Tử.
• Vitality - Barrier: The more Battle Points the character consumes, the lower the damage they have to endure.
• Void - Night Outside the Fire: The character's Weak Point Break efficiency increases.
• Hunting - Lucky Star: After defeating the enemy target, a large amount of Energy will be restored.
• Vitality - Microbial Seedling: When the character restores Battle Points, a random enemy will receive Bao Tử.
• Destruction - Cosmic Death: After the character is attacked or loses HP, they will receive 4 layers of Battle Will.
• Hunting - Entity Destruction: After the character breaks the enemy's weak point, their Priority Action is 100%, increasing the damage dealt by the next attack by 50%.
• Vitality - Harvesting Tongue: After the character performs Ultimate, when they next consume Battle Points, it will be considered as consuming an additional Battle Point. For each Battle Point consumed, the character's Critical Damage increases by 40%, and this effect can stack up to 2 layers, lasting until the character performs an attack.
• Vitality - Rhythm Disorder: Normal attack damage will spread to a random nearby enemy.

Best Team Compositions for the Insect Calamity

Here is a list of the most trusted team compositions by Honkai: Star Rail gamers worldwide for this challenging gameplay mode. Mytour has compiled them and categorized them according to the main carry to make it easy for readers to adjust based on their available character list.

Among these team compositions, Luocha is a name that constantly appears, even more than Silver Wolf or Bronya - the current top supports. This indicates how powerful Luocha is in the healer role. Hopefully, he will rerun soon, or miHoYo will release an equally powerful 5-star healer for gamers to use in the near future.

Dan Heng Yin Yue

With Dan Heng Yin Yue currently being the number one DPS in Honkai: Star Rail, gamers worldwide highly trust team compositions featuring this character. Your basic framework is Dan Heng Yin Yue + Luocha, followed by a buffer + 1 flex slot.

The most commonly used buff characters are usually Bronya, Silver Wolf, but sometimes gamers also add Explorer (Fire) or Gepard to ensure survivability.

Kafka

Although designed as a DOT character, the Honkai: Star Rail gaming community has realized that she is also extremely powerful when built as a traditional carry, focusing on critical rate and speed. As a result, the most popular Kafka lineups in the Insect Calamity mode do not feature Luka, Sampo, or even Serval.

Instead, the most commonly used lineup is Kafka + Gepard with the remaining 2 slots reserved for Silver Wolf/Tingyun, Luocha/Bailu, which are highly favored. These lineup types are currently at the top in terms of appearance rate in the Insect Calamity.

Svarog Carries the Team

While Clara may not be strong, Mr. Svarog is too strong. This is once again proven when Clara is one of the most used DPS in the Insect Calamity. In this gameplay mode, she is often paired with Blade and Luocha.

The last slot could belong to Silver Wolf or Bronya, depending on your circumstances. If you don't have 5-star characters or want Clara to tank better and deal higher DPS, then consider using March 7.

, a highly reputable choice.

Qingque and Seele

Both of these characters are Quantum DPS, and they are used in lineups with Silver Wolf, Luocha, Gepard – almost like a 'mono Quantum' setup. You must have Silver Wolf to make good use of this lineup, otherwise, you will be at a loss when encountering enemies without suitable weak points.

Alternatively, if you don't have Silver Wolf, you can use Bronya, supplement Blade instead of Gepard to increase damage diversity.

Blade

As you may notice, the Stellaron Blade hunter appears quite frequently in top lineups, but rarely as the sole DPS of the team. Instead, this character often serves as the secondary DPS alongside Dan Heng Yin Yue, Kafka, or Clara.

If you want to use Blade as the main carry, let him accompany Bronya, Silver Wolf, Luocha. You can also replace one of the buff characters with Explorer (Fire), Gepard, or Clara to ensure better survivability. Pela is also an interesting choice in a lineup with Blade, as she possesses the ability to reduce the enemy team's defense.
