by This time we will analyze one of the best 5-star Cones of Light within the Hunting Track in Honkai Star Rail , it is called ” In the Night ” and it greatly benefits those characters who have a very high amount of SPD.
In addition to providing a decent amount of Critical Chance, the most notable thing about this Cone of Light is that it increases the damage of Basic Attack and Basic Ability based on the amount of SPD the user of this cone has, the limit of This damage increase is achieved when reaching 160 SPD points.
In addition to this damage increase on certain skills, you can also increase the Critical Damage of the Ultimate based on the same criteria. A small trap that we can use if we are not able to reach 160 SPD points in our character’s build, is to have Asta in the team with an artifact that gives him Energy Recovery and some cone that also helps him to recharge for increase said character’s SPD through the Ultimate.
ATTRIBUTES OR STATS OF “IN THE NIGHT”
Let’s start looking at its basic attributes, keep in mind that we will give you the data it has at level 80 (the maximum):
- HP : 1058.
- ATK : 582
- DEF : 463
Next, we will see the benefits that the passive of this Cone of Light brings us in his S1:
- +18% Critical Chance. For every 10 points of Speed that its wielder has once the 100 border is exceeded, the damage of the Basic Attack and Basic Ability will increase by 6% while the Critical Damage of the Ultimate Ability will increase by 12% (this effect is can stack 6 times max).
To begin with, this Cone of Light will give us +18% CRIT Chance , a very valuable statistic for all the characters that belong to the Hunting Path and therefore act as DPS against Single Target enemies .
Then we find his other effect that increases both the damage of the Basic Attack and Basic Ability by 6% for every 10 SPD points we have during a fight. Once we go above 100 points, it will also increase the Ultimate’s CRIT Damage by 12% based on the same premise as before.
As this effect can only be stacked 6 times, our character would need to reach 160 SPD to enjoy +36% damage to his Basic Ability and Basic Attack, while his Ultimate gains 72% . Critical Damage .
WHICH CHARACTER DO I EQUIP IT TO?
We’re looking for characters from the Way of the Hunt that have good numbers on their SPD parameter and have a very damaging Ultimate:
Seele has a total of 115 SPD points when promoted to her maximum level, making her the starting character in Honkai Star Rail with the highest numbers in this parameter as of the day this article was published. That is why simply by equipping it with some boots with this statistic as the main parameter or pairing it with Asta to further boost its SPD when rolling the Ultimate, we will have enough SPD to obtain the maximum damage bonus from abilities and CRIT Damage for the Ultimate that this cone can provide.
The CRIT Chance that “At Night” gives us will also help us achieve a good balance in this parameter, which will help us achieve 50% CRIT Chance to be able to activate all the benefits of its best set of ornaments, the Inert Salsotto.
Also, the damage from Seele’s Ultimate Ability is quite lethal, so we can wreak havoc if we add 72% Critical Damage to it on top.
Dan Heng is a character from the Way of the Hunt who also stands out notably for his SPD, since he has 110 points in this parameter despite being a 4-star character, which makes him another good candidate to get to the 160 points of SPD and get the most out of this Cone of Light.
On the subject of Base ATK, Dan Heng has much less than Seele, but you may be surprised to learn that if the enemy Dan Heng hits with his Ultimate is slowed (it will suffice to use Dan Heng’s Basic against said enemy before rolling the Ultimate), the damage percentages of Dan Heng’s Ultimate in this case exceed Seele’s, so we can deal quite a lot of damage if we add the 72% Critical Damage that this cone can provide.
Other characters that can take advantage of this Cone of Light:
- Yanqing : Not a bad Cone of Light for him, but he does have an outrageously expensive Ultimate that will take a lot of work to reload and won’t take as much advantage of the Critical Damage bonus to it. In addition, by using his Ultimate Ability he himself can increase his CRIT Chance by an inordinate amount, so he doesn’t need the Critical Chance provided by this cone as much, but he does have a good SPD to be able to get a good increase in his Basic Attack and Basic Ability thanks to this cone’s passive.
- Sushang : He is one of the characters in the Way of the Hunt with the lowest Base SPD. Also, his Ulti damage is way below other characters like Seele or Dan Heng. So while he may suit him for being a good cone, he would put it first over any of the other recommended characters.
