Did you think the incredible Harmony Trailblazer was a one-time deal and we wouldn't see another Trailblazer of that caliber? Well, get ready, because I introduce you to the Remembrance Trailblazer.
Once again, we're looking at a Support character—one of the most valuable roles in the game. Unlike the Harmony Trailblazer, who was somewhat niche and primarily used in Break teams, the Remembrance Trailblazer fits seamlessly into almost any team composition, offering immense contributions across the board. In fact, I can confidently say they're not far off from Robin, who, as you probably know, is one of the best Supports and overall characters in Honkai Star Rail.
So, what makes the Remembrance Trailblazer so exceptional? They significantly boost the team's Critical Damage (and a bit of Critical Rate too). But the real highlight is their ability to advance an ally's action and enhance them, allowing the ally to deal additional damage known as True Damage. This True Damage is substantial and very noticeable.
The True Damage scales with the character's maximum energy, making the Remembrance Trailblazer an ideal support for characters with high energy costs for their Ultimate Skills, such as The Herta or Aglaea.
Base Stats
Trailblazer Remembrance Support
The Remembrance Trailblazer primarily needs Crit DMG and Speed to reach their full potential. Additionally, pairing them with characters that help recharge energy is highly beneficial.
Regarding Crit DMG, there's an important detail to keep in mind. The Crit DMG boost provided to the team is based on the Crit DMG of the Trailblazer's Memosprite (Mem), not the Trailblazer themselves.
At the start of the battle, Mem's Crit DMG will match the Trailblazer's Crit DMG before the battle begins. However, once the battle starts, each will receive buffs independently. This means that if you apply a Crit DMG buff to the Trailblazer during the battle, it won’t increase the team's Crit DMG, as this depends on Mem. To boost the team's Crit DMG, you'd need to buff Mem directly or use area-wide buffs.
This implies that the Banana Set is not suitable for them, as the +32% Crit DMG it provides applies to the wearer (Trailblazer). Since this buff is applied during the battle and not before, it won't affect Mem.
