by « My Past in the Mirror » is a five-star Cone of Light for Honkai Star Rail Harmony characters and the truth is that it is a very interesting Cone for this type of characters, although of course it will not be ideal for all of them.
It is Ruan Mei’s flagship Cone of Light and therefore it is very oriented towards this character getting amazing use out of it, although luckily (and this is something that other flagship Cones cannot say), other characters can take advantage of it, especially those who are good at Breaking Weakness (which is what this Cone is most oriented towards, although it also provides a very interesting buff for the group). We could say that it is a much improved version of the following cone:
Image in Memory
+28% to the wearer’s Break effect. After attacking, the user of this Cone of Light recovers 4 additional energy points (can only be activated 1 time per turn)
In this post we will analyze this Cone of Light as always and remember that below we will also see which are the best characters you can equip it to. Let’s go there!
ATTRIBUTES OR STATISTICS OF “MY PAST IN THE MIRROR”
Let’s start by looking at its basic attributes, keep in mind that we will give you the data that it has at level 80 (the maximum):
- HP : 1058.
- ATK : 529.
- DEF : 529.
Next, we will see the benefits that the passive of this Cone of Light brings us:
- S1 : +60% Break Effect. +24% Damage to allies for 3 turns after using the Ultimate and if the user’s Break Effect is greater than 150%, one point of Basic Skill is recovered. At the start of each wave, allies recover 10 energy points.
- S5 : +100% Break Effect. +40% Damage to allies for 3 turns after using the Ultimate and if the user’s Break Effect is greater than 150%, one point of Basic Skill is recovered. At the start of each wave, allies recover 20 energy points.
As you can see, the Cone provides quite a few things. From the outset it will give us a huge amount of Break Effect , so it will be especially useful for those characters who benefit greatly from this statistic. The best thing is that in addition to this, we will also grant a fairly substantial damage bonus to our teammates when we use the Ultimate with the wielder and we will also generate a little energy for the team in each wave of enemies, which never hurts to help recharge our Ultimates better.
However, to get the maximum potential of “My Past in the Mirror”, we will have to have more than 150% Break Effect since by achieving this we will recover one point of Basic Skill after using the Ultimate Skill (which would be the icing on the cake from the cake). Keep in mind, however, that even if it does not reach this exorbitant amount of Break Effect, it is still a very interesting Cone of Light due to the other effects it provides; You should take this part more as an extra.
It must be said that at least the Cone of Light helps a lot in terms of collecting Rupture Effect since in its S1 it gives us +60% to this statistic (a lot), so we will need to reach 90% in this statistic without take into account the Breakup Effect provided by the Cone itself.
WHAT CHARACTER DID I EQUIP IT TO?
The ideal would be to equip it to those Harmony characters who stand out for being good at Breaking Weakness and who therefore tend to benefit from the Breaking Effect.
Ruan Mei is a character that needs tons of Break Effect since this character deals a lot of damage with Weakness Break in a semi-passive way (she deals Break Damage when a teammate applies Weakness Break) and in addition, she can also buff plus the damage of his companions if he has high values in this statistic.
Since it is built looking for it to have all the Break Effect in this world, well, suffice it to say that “My Past in the Mirror” is an incredible option for it (it is its Cone of Light for a reason) and it will reach those 150 with relative ease % Break Effect to get the most out of this Cone.
Asta is a character who has always stood out for being very good at Breaking Weakness thanks to the fact that his Basic Skill hits enemies many times, so if we equip him with this Cone of Light and at the same time we put “Breaking Effect” on him, » in the «Union Rope» (you know, from the Ornaments), we will undoubtedly have a very good combo for her since we will increase her support and also her damage simultaneously.
Also, luckily for her, she doesn’t need as much Energy Recovery as other characters, so putting “Breaking Effect” on her “Binding Rope” isn’t a crazy option at all.
As for other characters who could equip it… you could really equip it to any Harmony character since it would be very useful for all of them to be able to provide additional damage to the team after using the ultimate, the problem is that the other characters don’t take advantage as much. well the Break Effect like the characters we have already mentioned above. Anyway, as I said, you can also equip it to:
Bronya
Advances an ally’s action and increases their damage. Great Critical Damage and Attack boosts to the group. Eliminate negative states. Not suitable for equipment with high consumption of Action Points.
Tingyun
Recovers energy and increases damage to an ally. Increases an ally’s ATK and causes them to deal more bonus damage to the enemy when they attack.
Yukong
Boosts the Attack, CRIT Chance and CRIT Damage of the next two teammates that act. Increases Imaginary Damage. Good Weakness Break.
hanya
Generate Basic Skill Points. Boosts a teammate’s Speed and Attack. His Talent allows him to increase a character’s overall damage.
