Top 5 Light Cones to use with Silver Wolf in Honkai Star Rail 1.1

With the release of update 1.1, Silver Wolf has arrived as one of the limited characters in Honkai Star Rail. Treading on the "Nihility" path, she is capable of inflicting numerous debuffs during combat, making her a meta unit in the title. Moreover, she is an F2P-friendly character, as you can equip her with a variety of 4-star and 5-star Light Cones to unleash her true potential.

One of Silver Wolf’s major selling points is her ability to inflict weakness on an enemy. However, the skill has a 90% chance to trigger the debuff at maximum level. Thus, she requires the Effect Hit Rate attribute on her gear to activate the ability on command.

Alternatively, you can also equip her with DoT enhancing Light Cones to use as a Quantum sub-DPS unit.

It goes without saying that Silver Wolf’s signature Light Cone, Incessant Rain, is her best-in-slot option, which provides a 24% Effect Hit Rate. Additionally, it increases the wearer's CRIT Rate by 12% after attacking an enemy riddled with three or more debuffs.

The Light Cone rolls with an extra effect that only triggers when the equipping character uses a Basic Attack. It implants the Aether Code on a random target, increasing their damage received for 1 turn.

The entire set of passives from Incessant Rain will drastically improve Silver Wolf's damage output. However, F2P players are advised to stick to her 4-star Light Cones to save their valuable Stellar Jades in Honkai Star Rail.
