by ” Sculpting the Moon and Weaving the Clouds ” is a Cone of Light belonging to the Harmony Track in Honkai Star Rail . We can obtain this Cone of Light by acquiring Anonymous Glory and reaching level 30 of it (the Battle Pass).
This Cone of Light is characterized by granting a buff to the entire group randomly among three options (Energy Recovery, ATK % and CRIT Damage), if you have previously played Genshin Impact I will tell you that it works similarly to Symphony of the Marauders , only the bonuses are more modest because they affect the entire party instead of a single character.
The good thing about “Sculpt the Moon and Weave the Clouds” is that it will not only benefit the characters in charge of dealing damage, the bonus that Energy Recovery grants can be useful even for Abundance and Conservation characters to be able to throw their Ultimate Ability faster.
ATTRIBUTES OR STATS OF “SCULPT THE MOON AND WEAVE THE CLOUDS”
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 : 952
- ATK : 476
- DEF : 330
Now we go with the passive that is what really interests us:
- At the start of the battle and at the beginning of the turn of the user of this Cone of Light, one of the following random effects will be activated to give the group a bonus (these effects are not cumulative and will change each time the user of this Cone of Light turns). Light):
- +10% ATK (20% in S5).
- +12% CRIT Damage (24% on S5).
- +6% Energy Recovery (12% on S5).
As soon as we start a battle we will obtain one of these three bonuses randomly, when the character with this cone has its turn, the received bonus will be canceled and the effect will be changed for one of the other two; this will happen randomly and will occur each time the bearer of “Sculpt the Moon and Weave the Clouds” takes its turn.
The only bad thing about this Cone of Light is that the bonuses are not cumulative and we will lose the current one as soon as it is the turn of the character that we have equipped it to and if he is defeated in battle, we will stop receiving the buffs from this cone and we will lose the bonus we had at that time.
“Sculpting the Moon and Weaving the Clouds” becomes much more interesting in its S5 in which the bonuses become much more relevant, but at the end of the day it is a cone for which we would need to buy the Anonymous Glory five times and wait five versions.
WHICH CHARACTER DO I EQUIP IT TO?
This Cone of Light is so good that you can actually equip it to any character in the Way of Harmony, but there are little things that make it work better for certain characters; The candidates for this Cone of Light are the following:
Since Tingyun is a character that can only boost the stats of a single character at a time with both his Basic Ability and his Ultimate Ability, it will be great for us to equip him with this Cone of Light that will allow him to support the entire group at the same time.
Within the four-star Cones of Light, it is one with the highest Base ATK. This will be something that will be great for Tingyun, since the ATK bonus that Tingyun provides is conditioned by the amount that it has in said statistic.
Bronya is a character that with her kit can confer some impressive buffs to statistics such as CRIT Damage or the ATK% of our allies when using their abilities. These types of bonuses provided by the passive of “Sculpt the Moon and Weave the Clouds” are very similar to those provided by Bronya’s Ultimate Ability (although to a lesser extent, obviously), so it will be useful to further enhance these effects.
Although in the case of Bronya, another four-star Cone of Light called “The Past and the Future” may spread, which will enhance the total damage of the next ally that acts after using Bronya’s Basic Ability.
These are other characters that can take advantage of the bonuses of this Cone of Light:
- Asta : It’s not a bad cone for her since Asta can boost the ATK% of the whole group to a great extent with his Basic Ability and everyone’s SPD with his Ultimate Ability; if we also add a CRIT Damage or Energy Recovery Bonus to this, Asta will be a character who can provide buffs of all kinds. Despite that, it would be much more effective for her to equip something like «To Dance».
