How to Use the New Battle Pass Light Cones
These Light Cones open up new ways to strengthen your team depending on your playstyle. For example, Journey, Forever Peaceful is great if you have a shield-heavy team, as it both boosts shield strength and increases damage output when shields are active.
Unto Tomorrow’s Morrow fits well in teams focused on healing, since it increases healing and rewards keeping allies’ HP above 50% with extra damage.
If you want to boost critical hits and burst damage, Light Cones like A Trail of Bygone Blood and The Flower Remembers are excellent picks, especially for characters relying on crit-based builds.
For players aiming to control enemy defences and maximise break damage, In Pursuit of the Wind gives a solid buff right when the battle begins.
Overall, these new Light Cones give you plenty of tactical options to tailor your characters’ performance, whether you want more survivability, healing, or offensive power.
