Anaxa's Signature Light Cone in Honkai: Star Rail: A Deep Dive into Stats and Abilities
2025-02-25 04:16:08Recent leaks surrounding Honkai: Star Rail have unveiled detailed information about the stats and unique abilities of Anaxa's signature Light Cone. This highly anticipated addition to the HoYoverse sci-fi RPG offers players another avenue to enhance and optimize their characters, supplementing the existing systems of Relics, Traces, and Eidolons.
Light Cones in Honkai: Star Rail function similarly to weapons in Genshin Impact, with each character equipping only one at a time. These Cones provide substantial stat boosts and powerful unique effects, often designed to synergize with specific characters. Five-star characters typically debut alongside their signature Light Cones, offering optimal benefits for the featured character.
Leaks suggest Anaxa's signature Light Cone, 'Life Could Be Cast to Flames,' is an Erudition type and will offer impressive stats at max level: 952 HP, 582 ATK, and 529 DEF. Its unique ability, 'Smelt,' grants an 18% Crit Rate increase and regenerates 10 Energy at the start of each turn for the wielder. Furthermore, 'Smelt' reduces the DEF of enemies debuffed by the wielder's active abilities by 6% for two turns.
This Light Cone appears poised to significantly impact the game's meta, not just for Anaxa but potentially for other Erudition characters as well. The substantial Crit Rate bonus and energy regeneration will be particularly valuable for Crit-focused characters, enabling more frequent Ultimate usage. The added DEF reduction also synergizes well with debuff-centric team compositions.
'Life Could Be Cast to Flames' offers a compelling combination of offensive and supportive capabilities. The Crit Rate boost directly amplifies damage output, while the energy regeneration and DEF shred provide indirect benefits to the entire team. This versatility makes the Light Cone a desirable acquisition for players looking to optimize their Erudition characters.
Anaxa’s arrival alongside his signature Light Cone in Version 3.2 is expected to further diversify team composition strategies. The combination of his abilities and the Light Cone's effects could create powerful synergies with existing characters like The Herta, further expanding the tactical possibilities within Honkai: Star Rail.
