How to Do Follow-Up Attacks

Performed When Certain Conditions Are Met

Honkai Star Rail - Follow Up Attacks in Action

Follow-Up attacks are automatically performed when pre-defined conditions are met with a character's talent.

This mechanic grants the opportunity for your characters to counter-attack the enemies' moves even though your party's turn is over, often turning the tide of a battle.

Not to mention that the game's turn-based battle system requires you to conscientiously consider your actions, but due to the ability to perform an extra attack, most situations tend to become in your favor — ending the battle with victory at your hands.
