Blue Archive Hoshino Character Guide – Best Builds & Team Compositions

Hoshino is a durable frontline tank in Blue Archive, excelling in PvE battles. Her ability to absorb damage, taunt enemies, and generate shields makes her a crucial component of any team needing a sturdy defender. This allows damage dealers to focus on offense while Hoshino soaks up enemy attacks. As a Striker unit dealing Explosive damage, she's highly effective against Heavy Armor enemies, proving invaluable in PvE content like Total Assault and campaign missions. However, her lack of mobility and focus on defense, rather than offense, presents challenges in PvP.
