So, which of these seven Light Cones is the best to choose?

Best battle pass Light Cone in Honkai: Star Rail

Like Relics, the best Light Cone from the battle pass is the one that suits your needs and is also one that best fits your character.

For example, if you have Bailu, you know that many of your healing abilities will scale off your maximum health. So, you may need the Light Cone, Warmth Shortens Cold Nights, until you can get her best Light Cone. Or, if you want to make the switch to the Preservation, or Fire Trailblazer, you may need the This is Me! Light Cone, but it’s not one of the best ones for this Trailblazer.

But if you need a DPS Light Cone, then Return to Darkness may be the best option. For defense, This Is Me! is pretty decent, and Warmth Shorten’s Cold Nights is a great health booster for your healers.

So, once you know what you need, you can select the best Light Cone from the Honkai: Star Rail battle pass that suits your needs.
