First, let’s look at the set effects of the Scholar Lost in Erudition Relic set:

• 2-piece set effect: Boosts the wearer’s CRIT Rate by 6%.
• 4-piece set effect: The wearer’s ultimate and skill get a whopping 20% damage boost. Moreover, when the user of this Relic set activates their ultimate, their next Skill will deal an additional 20% damage.

Now, here are the characters who can use this Relic set’s effects to its full potential:

Feixiao

Due to the uniqueness of Scholar Lost in Erudition, Feixiao is the best character you can use this Relic set on. Since this Arbiter General deals damage with both her ultimate and Skill, she can use the 4-piece set effect to its full potential.

Moreover, the ultimate and skill damage boost is permanent. Thus, Feixiao will hit enemies harder every time she attacks an opponent with either ability. Additionally, her skill will deal extra damage after Feixiao uses her ultimate. This enables her to do quite a lot of damage and boost her efficiency in high-tier activities.

Dr. Ratio

While quite unusual, Dr. Ratio is another character whose abilities and kit suit the Scholar Lost in Erudition Relic set. He deals a significant amount of damage with both his skill, ultimate, and follow-up attacks. Barring the Pioneer relic set, this one can be beneficial to him, as it has the potential to boost his overall damage by a significant amount.

This can help Dr. Ratio’s pick-rate to skyrocket, especially in the end game/high-tier activities of Honkai Star Rail.

Herta

You can use the Scholar Lost in Erudition Relic set on Herta when Honkai Star Rail version 2.6 releases. Since she can deal damage with both her skill and ultimate, she can outclass some free-to-play DPS units in terms of raw damage output. Additionally, the 6% CRIT Rate boost helps her hit CRITs a little more, which can ultimately help her deal more damage.

Moreover, Herta launches follow-up attacks when the enemies’ HP falls below 50%. The damage boost of the Scholar Lost in Erudition set helps her unleash follow-up attacks quite often against enemies with a smaller HP pool.
