Best Light Cones for Blade in Honkai Star Rail

The Unreachable Side (Image via Sportskeeda Gaming || HoYoverse)

• The Unreachable Side
• A Secret Vow (Superimposition Level 5)
• Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path

Blade’s signature Light Cone, The Unreachable Side, is still one of the best options for him, even after the buffs he received. The 5-star item increases his HP and CRIT Rate simultaneously, while also boosting his damage whenever he gets hit or consumes his own HP. If you have enough Jades for the weapon, snag one from the right gacha banner.

Those who do not want to pull or have Blade’s signature weapon can get A Secret Vow (S5). When equipped, this 4-star piece of equipment can increase this Stellaron Hunter’s damage by a substantial amount. Moreover, the LC can further boost Blade’s damage if the enemies he is fighting have more HP than him.

While it may be a little unexpected, Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path pairs extremely well with Blae in HSR. Since the latter’s abilities now scale with HP, he can efficiently utilize the item’s maximum potential. When Blade consumes a certain amount of HP when triggering his Skill or Ultimate, that attack’s damage gets a decent boost.

Best Relics for Blade in Honkai Star Rail

Relics

Longevous Disciple (Image via Sportskeeda Gaming || HoYoverse)

• 4-piece Longevous Disciple
• 2-piece Longevous Disciple with 2-piece Scholar Lost in Erudition set combo

After the Blade buff in HSR 3.4, the 4-piece Longevous Disciple Relic set suits him the best. The 2-piece bonus grants him extra HP, and the 4-piece increases his CRIT Rate. If you want to bring out the most of Blade’s abilities, you should farm for this set.

If you are looking for an alternative to the aforementioned set, you can opt for the 2-piece Longevous Disciple with the 2-piece Scholar Lost in Erudition set combo. The latter set grants Blade extra SPD, while the former increases his max HP.

Planar Ornaments

Bone Collection’s Serene Demesne (Image via Sportskeeda Gaming || HoYoverse)

• 2-piece Bone Collection’s Serene Demesne
• 2-piece Inert Salsotto

Since Blade’s abilities scale with HP, you should farm for the 2-piece Bone Collection’s Serene Demesne set in HSR. Like the Longevous Disciple Relic set, it passively boosts this Stellaron Hunter’s HP and grants him extra CRIT DMG when his max health surpasses 5,000.

The 2-piece Inert Salsotto is a great alternative to the Bone Collection’s Serene Demesne Ornament set. The gear set boosts his CRIT Rate while also increasing his FUA and Ultimate damage when his CRIT Rate reaches 50% or more.
