Best Relics for Silver Wolf in Honkai Star Rail
Relic sets

- 2-piece SPD set (i.e, Messenger Traversing Hackerspace, Warrior Goddess of Sun and Thunder, and Sacerdos’ Sacred Ordeal) + Longevous Disciple or Knight of Purity Palace or Guard of Wuthering Snow
- 4-piece Eagle of Twilight Line
Considering Silver Wolf is a Nihility unit who specializes in debuffing her adversaries, the Relic sets that boost SPD are good for her. As there are multiple options, you can use any set with good stats, along with a defensive one like Longevous Disciple to boost her survivability on the battlefield.
If you are looking for a support build to make sure Silver Wolf keeps on debuffing adversaries, then the 4-piece Eagle set is the one you should farm.
Planar Ornament sets

- Penacony, the Land of Dreams
- Lushaka, the Sunken Seas
When farming Planar Ornaments for Silver Wolf, you can go for the "Penacony, Land of Dreams" set, as it boosts her ERR (Energy Regeneration Rate). Furthermore, it can also buff the damage output of allies who wield the same Element as her.
"Lushaka, the Sunken Seas" is also a decent choice, as it can boost her first teammate’s ATK alongside increasing her own ERR. Since this set works on most supports, if you have extra pieces lying around, then you can use it on Silver Wolf.
Best Light Cones for Silver Wolf in Honkai Star Rail

- Lies Dance on the Breeze
- Before the Tutorial Mission Starts (S5)
- Resolution Shines as Pearls of Sweat (S5)
Although Silver Wolf is a limited-time 5-star character, her signature Light Cone is not as good as some other options available in the game. However, you can use Cipher’s weapon, "Lies Dance on the Breeze," on her. The item can boost Silver Wolf’s SPD and allows her to reduce the DEF of her enemies, making them vulnerable to incoming damage.
"Before the Tutorial Mission Starts" is an event Light Cone that can be acquired from the Herta Store. Since it's a 4-star event LC, players can easily S5 it to unlock its full potential. It helps Silver Wolf gain extra Energy whenever she hits an enemy whose DEF is reduced.
If you are looking for an LC that is similar to Cipher’s signature weapon for Silver Wolf, then you should use "Resolution Shines as Pearls of Sweat" in HSR. Like the 5-star LC, this item also lowers the opponent’s DEF.
