Hoshino: A Comprehensive Guide to Blue Archive's Durable Tank

Hoshino is a formidable frontline tank in Blue Archive, a powerhouse in PvE combat thanks to her exceptional damage absorption, enemy taunting, and self-generated shields. She's indispensable in team compositions demanding a robust defender, safeguarding damage dealers while absorbing enemy attacks. As a Striker unit dealing Explosive damage, she excels against Heavy Armor enemies, proving invaluable in PvE challenges like Total Assault and campaign missions. However, her limited mobility and defensive focus hinder her PvP performance.

This guide delves into Hoshino's strengths, optimal gear, synergistic units, and more, providing crucial insights for players aiming to optimize their team strategies.

Understanding Hoshino

Wielding a shotgun, she thrives in close-quarters combat. She's a top-tier tank in the early to mid-game, making her an excellent choice for new players. New players should also consult the Blue Archive Beginner's Guide for additional team-building and progression advice.
