Best Light Cone
Back to All Characters
Mydei is the Chrysos Heir of Strife and anImaginary Destructioncharacterthat deals damage based on his HP. His kit mainly revolves around hisconsuming his own HP to deal enhanced attacks on enemies. The best part about his kit is that it’s very easy to understand andHonkai: Star Railplayers should have no problem using him in a team.
Much like his lore, Mydei is almost unkillable when on the field. This is because of the ‘Vendetta’ state he enters after accumulating a certain amount of points. Thisboosts his Max HP and his enhanced damage output. To achieve this, Mydei needs to be accurately built to utilize his kit and this includes finding the correct light cone. Because of his unique mechanic,Mydei Light Cones inHSRare limited, so it would be best to acquire whichever light cone you’re able to from this list.

S5 is the best
Since Mydei is a Destruction unit, he can use any Destruction attribute Light Cone available. However, it needs to be compatible with his HP heavy kit.There are not many 4-star substitutesavailable, butFlames Afaris your next best option. Basically, when the user’s cumulative HP loss during one attack exceeds25% of their Max HP, or if the amount of theirown HP consumed at once is greater than 25%, the user is healed by 15% of their Max HP. Additionally, their DMG dealt isalso increased by 25%.Obtaining S5 of this Light Cone would be ideal since the DMG dealt will be pushed up to 50%. It’s your best possible 4-star option that compliments Mydei’s decrease and increase in HP when he uses his skill.
HSRplayers can obtain the Flames Afar Light Cone after completing the Trailblaze Mission: A Walk Among the Tombstones in Penacony.
S5 is preferred
Ninja Record - Sound Huntis your next best option for a 4-star Light Cone and fits Mydei’s profile perfectly. It increases the wearer’s Max HP by12%and whenever the user loses or regains HP, theirCRIT DMGincreases by 18%. If you manage to acquireS5 of Ninja Record - Sound Hunter for Mydei inHSR, his Max HP will be bumped up to24%andCRIT DMGup to36%. This is honestly the best 4-star you may equip on Mydei to utilize his kit, but it’s also, unfortunately, an event limited Light Cone. If you missed getting it, feel free to use any other option on this list.

Base Passive is preferred
For a substitute 5-star Light Cone,The Unreachable Sidemay be the best inHSRfor Mydei. It’s Blade’s signature Light Cone, and much like him, Mydei too scales off his HP. This Light Cone increases the wearer’sCRIT Rate and Max HP by 18%. Similarly, when the wearer is attacked or consumes their own HP, theirDMG increases by 24%. This Light Cone is very similar to Mydei’s own signature and that’s why it’s the next best option for a 5-star.
Quite frankly, you don’t really need to get copies of The Unreachable Side as having the Light Cone at its base value is enough. Mydei’s kit doesn’t really require him to invest in CRIT Rate, so getting the copies which do boost his CRIT Rate means nothing. Just focus on obtaining the CRIT ratio through his relics and ornaments, and capitalize more on the HP boost given through the Light Cone.

S5 is undoubtably the best as it gives Mydei a whopping30% increase in Max HP. However, if players do not want to invest that much, S1 or Base Passive is just as good at clearing the game’s content.
Mydei’s signature Light Cone isFlame of Blood, Blaze My Path,and it’s no doubt his best-in-slot. That’s because this Light Cone is catered specifically to him and his skills with theHP boost,DMG boost, and HP recovery rate.It increases Max HP by 18% and Incoming Healing by 20%.
Additionally, if you use Mydei’s Skill or Ultimate, his attack DMGincreases by 30%. Basically, this Light Cone allows Mydei todrain more of his HP by using his Skill or Ultimate, and then compensates for it with a 60% DMG increase if over 500HP is used. You need to have at least/if notmore than 8000 HP on Mydei to take advantage of his kit with this or any Light Cone.
