What is the best build for March 7th in Honkai: Star Rail?As a member of the Astral Express crew and a frequent adventurer on their planetside excursions, adorable amnesiac March 7th is one of the party members who’ll join your team inHonkai: Star Rail’s prologue. From that point on she’s unlocked permanently, meaning that you’ll be seeing a lot of her not only in cutscenes but likely fighting on your side throughout the early parts of the game — especially if you’re an F2P player with limited opportunities to pull from the gacha.
As a starter character, March is far from the strongest on the game’s roster. But she’s a good utility character and fun to have around to boot, meaning that it’s well worth equipping her with the best build for her kit. So read on for our bestHonkai: Star RailMarch 7th build advice, including relics, light cones, and more.

Honkai: Star Rail best March 7th build
March 7th path and element
March 7th follows the path ofThe Preservation. This means that she’s a shield specialist in combat, and can use her skill to protect a chosen ally from harm (and deliver a free action follow-up attack on any enemies who dare to interfere with her special someone).
She’s aligned with theIceelement, which allows her to deal her elemental damage while applying a powerful Frozen debuff that immobilises affected enemies for at least one turn. Her ultimate attack deals AoE ice damage to opponents across the field, giving her a desirable balance between defence and offence in combat.
Her weapon of choice is a bow, which allows her to attack at range during exploration. It’s for this reason that she makes a particularly helpful utility party member at the start of the game, since she can often begin a combat encounter before an enemy spots her, giving your party the edge in the attack.
Best light cone for March 7th: Moment of Victory
The choice of March 7th’s best light cone doesn’t so much lie in the rarity value of the respective options as in how exactly you want to build her.
