Best Light Cones for Firefly

When looking for the best Firefly build, you also need to look for the best Light Cones for her. Similar to any other limited 5-star units, Firefly’s signature Light Cone, Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest, is the best choice for her.

The best Firefly build is incomplete without the Relic and Planar Ornament sets. For Firefly’s Relic sets, there are multiple options that you can choose from. The first choice is the 4-piece Iron Cavalry Against Scourge Relic set which is expected to be released along with the upcoming version 2.3. The full 4-piece Relic set boosts the user’s Break Effect and ignores the adversary’s DEF when inflicting Break damage.

Another option you can aim for is the 2-piece Watchmaker, Master of Dream Machinations, and 2-piece Thief of Shooting Meteor Relic sets. Both 2-piece set effects boost the wearer’s Break Effect. As most of Firefly’s attacks scale with Break Effect, this is expected to be an excellent choice for her.

For Relic stats, go for a Body piece with ATK%, and Boots with SPD main stat.

As for the Planar Ornament set, the Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern set is the best option for Firefly. It boosts the user’s Break Effect when they attack an enemy with Fire Weakness. Alternatively, Talia: Kingdom of Banditry set is an excellent option as it boosts the wearer’s Break Effect when their SPD is 145 or higher. When acquiring the Planar Ornament pieces for the best Firefly build, go for an ATK% Sphere, and Break Effect on Rope.
