Until now, the only 4-Star Healer in Honkai: Star Rail was Natasha. While Natasha is still a great option, Lynx can finally step in for all of your Quantum-lacking teams. But Lynx goes a step further by applying certain effects to her allies during her Skill. She can do more than heal. She can also temporarily increase a character’s Max HP.

Since healing and other buffs come from her Skill, prioritize upgrading her Skill Trace. Next, focus on her Ultimate for additional party healing and debuffing. Leave her Basic ATK for last, you’ll only use it for Weakness Breaks or because you ran out of Skill Points.
Basic ATK – Ice Crampon Technique
Lynx deals Quantum DMG equal to 25% of her Max HP to a single enemy.

Skill – Salted Camping Cans
Lynx applies the Survival Response effect to a single target ally and increases their Max HP by 5% of Lynx’s Max HP plus 50. Additionally, their HP is restored by 8% of Lynx’s Max HP plus 80. If the target is a character on the Path of Destruction or Preservation, they will have a greater chance of being attacked by enemies. Survival Response lasts for 2 turns. You will need Lynx’s Talent activated for Survival Response to provide continuous healing.
Ultimate – Snowfield First Aid
Lynx dispels 1 debuff from all allies and immediately restores her team members’ respective HP by 9% of Lynx’s Max HP plus 90. This is where Lynx is better than Natasha – her Ultimate clears debuffs for every team member.
Talent – Outdoor Survival Experience
Lynx’s Skill and Ultimate will apply continuous healing to the target ally for 2 turns. At the start of each turn, their HP will be restored by 2.4% of Lynx’s Max HP plus 24. If the character has the Survival Response effect, continuous healing will restore an additional 3% of Lynx’s Max HP plus 30. So with Survival Response active, the target ally will heal by 5.4% of Lynx’s Max HP plus 54.
