7 best Aventurine teams to build in Honkai Star Rail

1) Aventurine-Acheron-Silver Wolf-Pela

Aventurine is much more than a regular tank, as he can apply debuffs to a target while shielding allies. Therefore, he takes the spot as a perfect member of Acheron’s team in Honkai Star Rail.

He can increase the CRIT DMG taken by an enemy, which in turn will help Acheron build up her Ultimate and deal increased damage. Paired with the Silver Wolf and Pela, the setup is prepared to tackle late-game content like the Memory of Chaos. The duo will help Acheron obtain more Ultimate stacks before the counterplay.

2) Aventurine-Imbibitor Lunae-Tingyun-Sparkle

Imbibitor Lunae can also benefit from Aventurine’s CRIT DMG debuff to deal additional damage. The former is a powerful Imaginary DPS that flourishes when paired with good support units. On that note, players can use both Tingyun and Sparkle to push Lunae's combat potential.

Aventurine serves as one of the coveted allies for Imbibitor Lunae, following the other two support characters. Being one of Honkai Star Rail's best sustainer characters, he can keep everyone alive with stackable shields, which grow stronger if the enemy fails to break them.

3) Aventurine-Dr. Ratio-Silver Wolf-Sparkle

One of the best Aventurine teams in Honkai Star Rail includes Dr. Ratio as the primary DPS. He's a Hunt character with access to powerful single-target nukes as follow-up attacks. This mechanic allows Aventurine to also launch his auto-attack, stacking more shields for allies.

Silver Wolf and Sparkle will serve as the primary support for Dr. Ratio. Silver Wolf is particularly essential for the setup as she can debuff enemies, provoking the DPS to launch more follow-ups.

4) Aventurine-Himeko-Herta-Ruan Mei

Honkai Star Rail has numerous characters that can unleash follow-up damage. Among them, Himeko and Herta are some of the oldest units that employ this special combat mechanic.

They can be used together as a team, with Aventurine ensuring their defense. Players can also build him with offensive stats to take complete advantage of his follow-up mechanic.

In end-game content like Pure Fiction, this Aventurine team is bound to dominate considering their high AoE potential. Ruan Mei can boost their combat prowess by unleashing her powerful resistance penetration buff.

5) Aventurine-Jing Yuan-Topaz-Sparkle

Jing Yuan has stepped up as one of Honkai Star Rail's most popular characters, and he can certainly benefit from being on Aventurine’s team. The other two characters are equally important to make the whole composition work.

While Aventurine can protect the whole squad, Topaz has to take on the role of a sub-DPS to tackle the single-target combat. In contrast, Jing Yuan can easily dispatch multiple opponents with his Lightning Lord attack. This also counts as a follow-up attack that can trigger Aventurine’s passive.

Finally, Sparkle will provide CRIT DMG and other necessary buffs to allies.

6) Aventurine-Argenti-Sparkle-Ruan Mei

Like every other hypercarry setup on this list, Aventurine can be paired with Argenti to create a powerful Honkai Star Rail team. The latter is a glass-cannon DPS unit effective against multiple enemies.

Aventurine’s CRIT DMG debuff will help him deal a bit more damage to solo enemies. In addition, Sparkle and Ruan Mei will extend their powerful buff, helping Argenti reach his peak combat potential.

Aventurine can further envelope allies with powerful barriers, helping them survive any incoming attack.

7) Aventurine-Clara-Sparkle-Tingyun

Clara is another solid candidate to team with Aventurine in Honkai Star Rail, as her primary source of damage is follow-up attacks. It triggers Aventurine’s auto attack, which leads to more shield generation.

The barrier will help Clara survive since she gets targeted by the enemy due to her high taunt value. Her damage output is great to begin with, and players can enhance it by adding more buffers to the team.

Sparkle and Tingyun can be used together to obtain the maximum damage boost.
