The is what Arlan should have for his ideal setup.a five-star light cone Firmament Frontline: Glammoth, The Unreachable Side, and Band of Sizzling Thunder and Longevous Disciple combined.
His attack determines how much damage he does, but HP is just as vital, so balance the two while increasing his lightning damage bonus, critical strike rate, and critical damage.
How need I to use Arlan?
Arlan is a lightning-wielding DPS who, in most situations, functions as a glass cannon due to his immense damage and poor survivability. His specialty is eliminating single targets. He has a talent that allows him to inflict greater damage by giving up some of his HP, but it is not usable if he has insufficient HP. Based on his HP loss, his damage also increases in his passive.
Which light cones work best for Arlan?
Rail Blade Honkai Star's light cone
Arlan's HP-cutting moveset is particularly suited for the Unreachable Side, as it increases his max HP and crit rate while also strengthening his attack when he reduces his own health or faces attacks from foes. But since it's a limited edition five-star light cone, getting one might be challenging.
Another strong option is On the Fall of an Aeon, which is a little bit simpler to get since it can be purchased at Herta's Store for eight Herta bonds.Arlan's damage output varies according to his attack, therefore as the conflict progresses, his power increases progressively.
The cone of light with four stars Specifically designed for Arlan's kit, a Secret Vow boosts his flat damage and gives him the ability to inflict more damage against enemies with a greater HP % than him—a situation that, given his skill set, is probably virtually always active. If, for whatever reason, you are unable to get A Secret Vow, you may still equip him with any light cone that is in line with The Destruction's path—ideally one that also increases his attack.

Which relics are the finest for Arlan?
Considering Honkai Star Rail relics,Since it boosts Arlan's lightning and shock damage, the Band of Sizzling Thunder set is the best choice.Since he is undoubtedly the primary DPS character, anything that raises his attack and elemental damage is advantageous. To boost his attack stat, we have also attempted to combine two pieces of Band of Sizzling Thunder with two pieces of Musketeer of Wild Wheat.
Arlan may also benefit from Longevous Disciple, which raises his maximum HP and has an effect akin to Blade's light cone but is much more accessible.
Arlan is a fantastic match for Rutilant Arena as a primary DPS since it increases his crit rate, basic attack damage, and skill damage. Frontline of Firmament: Glamoth offers a generic attack and damage bonus instead than concentrating on his fundamental attack and skill, making it useful even if you're barely achieving its baseline speed.
