Introductions
Welcome to our team composition guide for Sampo in Honkai: Star Rail. In this guide, we'll explore the best teams to build for Sampo, including recommended team compositions, character synergies and everything you need to know.
Best Synergies for Sampo
Kafka and Sampo pair well because Sampo consistently applies and strengthens DoT effects, while Kafka activates those effects to deal heavy DMG. In simple terms Sampo builds up DoT and Kafka cashes them in for big amounts of DMG.
Serval pairs well with Sampo because they both specialise in stacking DoT. Serval applies Shock while Sampo applies Wind Shear and increases the DMG to enemies. Having multiple DoT characters active at once means enemies steadily lose HP each turn.
Hysilens and Sampo work well together because they both focus on stacking and amplifying DoT. Sampo consistently applies Wind Shear and increases the DMG enemies take from DoT effects while Hysilens gains extra value when multiple DoTs are active on a target. Together they build constant increasing DMG that wears enemies down efficiently.
Black Swan and Sampo make a great team together as Sampo at E4 or higher allows him to perform similarly to Kafka where he can use his skill each turn allowing him to use Wind Shear consistently allowing Black Swan to deal higher amounts of DMG.
