Firefly’s best light cone is her signature five-star cone, Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest. Her best relic combination is four pieces of Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge and two pieces of Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern. You should prioritize attack%, speed, and break effect on your relics for the best outcome.
How should I use Firefly?
Firefly, or SAM as she’s known in battle, is a five-star fire character who walks the path of Destruction. This means she excels at surviving for her teammates and dishing out lots of single-target and multi-target damage. Her kit revolves around her ultimate, which enhances her basic attack and skill, while also adding fire weakness to her enemies. Transform as soon as possible in battles to make the most of SAM’s increased break ability and damage.
What are the best light cones for Firefly?
As a limited five-star character, Firefly’s best light cone is Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest, which is her signature light cone. Its ability synergizes with her break damage-focused build, making it the perfect companion for her kit, even at superimposition one. Of course, both Firefly and her light cone are on limited banners, so getting your hands on both might be tough.
On the Fall of an Aeon is a great five-star alternative as you can purchase it rather than relying on gacha luck, or Indelible Promise is a good four-star backup option.
| Light cone | Effect | How to obtain |
| Whereabouts Should Dreams Rest | Increases Firefly’s break effect by 60%. When she deals break damage to an enemy target, inflict Routed on the enemy, lasting for two turns. Targets afflicted with Routed receive 24% increased break damage from Firefly, and their speed is lowered by 20%. Effects of a similar type cannot stack | Event light cone warp |
| On the Fall of an Aeon | Whenever Firefly attacks, her attack increases by 8% in this battle. This effect can stack up to four times. After a character inflicts weakness break on an enemy, Firefly’s damage increases by 12% for two turns | Herta’s Store |
| Indelible Promise | Increases Firefly’s break effect by 28%. When she uses her ultimate, Firefly’s crit rate increases by 15%, lasting for two turns | Gacha |
What are the best relics for Firefly?
Firefly’s kit synergizes with the new cavern relic set Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge thanks to its focus on both break effect and super break effect. As long as you focus on her break effect, you’ll have no trouble meeting the set’s buff requirements. If you’re looking for a cheaper option, try out a four-piece set of Thief of Shooting Meteor, or mix two pieces of Thief with Messenger Traversing Hackerspace for a classic catch-all break effect and speed buff.
As for planar ornaments, Firefly’s best-in-slot set is Forge of the Kalpagni Lantern. Her ability to apply fire weakness to enemies means she can always activate its break effect buff. If you’re struggling with the divergent universe, Talia: Kingdom of Banditry is a decent alternative.
| Relic set | Effect | How to obtain |
| Iron Cavalry Against the Scourge | Two pieces equipped: increases break effect by 16% Four pieces equipped: if Firefly’s break effect is 150% or higher, ignore 10% of the enemy target’s defense when dealing break damage to them. When Firefly’s break effect is 250% or higher, the Super Break damage she deals to enemy targets additionally ignores 15% of the targets’ defense | Cavern of Corrosion: Path of Cavalier in the Penacony Grand Theater |
