Key Takeaway

Light Cones are equipable items that boost a character’s Base HP, Base Attack, and Base Defense. They come in 3-star, 4-star, and 5-star rarities, with higher rarities offering higher base stats. While all Light Cones can be equipped to any character, only characters sharing the Light Cone’s corresponding Path will be able to take advantage of the Light Cone’s special ability.

Players can obtain Light Cones by completing certain quests or objectives, by purchasing them in-game, or by rolling on banners.

In Honkai: Star Rail, you can equip your characters with unique Light Cones. These items can boost HP, attack, and defense, and can also grant a passive ability if given to the correct character. Pairing the right Light Cone with the ideal character can be incredibly helpful in battle.

    What Are Light Cones?

    Rather than equipping traditional weapons and armor, characters in Honkai: Star Rail can improve their stats by using unique items. Each character can equip a Light Cone, which boosts that character’s Base HP, Base Attack, and Base Defense. Light Cones come in three rarities: 3-star, 4-star, and 5-star. The higher the rarity, the higher the base stats.

    Light Cones can also grant a powerful passive ability once equipped. However, while all Light Cones can be equipped to any character, only characters of the Light Cone’s corresponding Path will be able to utilize this special ability.

    Below, you can see that Himeko, an Erudition character, has been equipped with Night on the Milky Way: an Erudition Light Cone. Therefore, she will be able to use the Meteor Swarm Light Cone Ability.

    A Light Cone called the Night on the Milky Way equipped to a Himeko in Honkai: Star Rail.

    Like characters, Light Cones can gain experience and level up by either consuming other Light Cones or Light Cone experience materials like Sparse Aether, Condensed Aether, and Refined Aether. As they level up, their stats become more powerful.

    Tip
    If you find yourself with two copies of a single Light Cone, you can use Superimposition to further strengthen their passive effect.

    How to Get Light Cones

    There are numerous ways to collect Light Cones as you explore the world of Honkai: Star Rail. 4-star Light Cones are often given as exploration and quest rewards, as well as Level Rewards each time you level up. To retrieve the latter, speak to Pom Pom in the Parlor Car.

    Certain limited-time events can also offer up Light Cones as rewards, so it’s advisable to check what’s new in each patch.

    It’s also possible to purchase certain Light Cones using unique currencies earned through gameplay. You can access Herta’s Store through the Simulated Universe page to redeem several 5-star Light Cones using Herta Bonds.

    Herta's Store in Honkai: Star Rail, offering a selection of Light Cones.

    In the Parlor Car, you can speak to the NPC near the entrance to the Forgotten Hall to access the Light Cone Manifest store. Using Lucent Afterglow acquired by progressing through the Forgotten Hall, you can purchase seven unique 4-star Light Cones—one for each of the seven paths in the game.

    Note
    Given that Honkai: Star Rail is a gacha game, it’s impossible not to mention the possibility of using real money to gain the most powerful items. Players can choose to roll on the current banner to receive Light Cones of various rarities, but this will always be a gamble. If you’re after a specific type of Light Cone, purchasing Nameless Glory and boosting it to Level 30 will allow you to choose your reward, eliminating the gambling aspect.

    Finally, you can access the Starlight Exhance Store to use Undying Starlight currency gained from warps to purchase 5-star Light Cones.
