Arlan is a 4-star Lightning DPS (Single-Target / Blast) in Honkai: Star Rail. Arlan is the Head of Herta Space Station's Security Department and a 4-star Lightning/Destruction DPS who trades conventional Skill Point economy for raw survivability risk. His Skill, Shackle Breaker, costs 15% of his Max HP instead of a Skill Point — a mechanic that frees your team's SP engine but puts constant pressure on his health bar. He hits single targets primarily, with Blast coverage on his Ultimate that strikes adjacent targets for 50% of the main-target multiplier. Every bit of his damage is Lightning elemental, making him a narrow specialist for content where Lightning weaknesses are in play.
