Honkai Star Rail Topaz Light Cone guide: Best 5-star and 4-star options

Topaz is Honkai Star Rail's newest star for the second phase of 1.4. The 5-star Hunt character wields exciting abilities paired with her Trotter peed Numby. Most of her skills are based on follow-up attacks, further increasing her damage and Numby's Crit Damage stat via different abilities. Hence, she can be considered a proper DPS, similar to other Hunt units in the game.

This article will help readers understand the best Light Cones to equip on Topaz, based on her kit revealed before release. Honkai Star Rail is also known for providing some of the best F2P Light Cones to build the most substantial characters, making Topaz open for equipping them all.

All 5-star Light Cones for Topaz in Honkai Star Rail 1.4

Here is a list of all the 5-star Light Cones available in the game for Topaz, be it exclusively via the Gacha banner, or in-game shop via F2P means:

1) Worrisome, Blissful

The signature Light Cone for Topaz is called Worrisome, Blissful. Typically, the Light Cone itself follows the Hunt Path, available for any Hunt characters in the game. However, anyone pursuing this particular Light Cone is recommended to equip it exclusively on Topaz.

The following is the Superimposition called "One at a time," which grants the following perk:

• Increase the wearer's CRIT Rate by 18% and their follow-up attacks' DMG by 30%. After the wearer uses a follow-up attack, apply the Tame state to the target, stacking up to 2 stacks. When allies hit enemy targets under the Tame state, every Tame stack increases the CRIT DMG dealt by 12%.

The numbers above can be found in the Superimposition I version of the Light Cone, as they will increase with max ascension.

2) Cruising in the Stellar Sea

Cruising in the Stellar Sea is the best 5-star F2P option for Topaz. Players can purchase the Light Cone and ascend it to maximum Superimposition, all by collecting Herta Bond from Simulated Universe. The perk tied to the Light Cone is called "Chase," granting the following buff:

• Increases the wearer's CRIT rate by 8% and increases their CRIT rate against enemies with HP less than or equal to 50% by an extra 8%. When the wearer defeats an enemy, their ATK is increased by 20% for two turn(s)

As mentioned, the ascension of this Light Cone's Superimposition will only require a few weeks' worth of SU grind.

All 4-star Light Cones for Topaz in Honkai Star Rail 1.4

Similar to 5-star Light Cones, the following list includes all the best 4-star Light Cones available in the game for Topaz via the Gacha banner:

1) Swordplay

Swordplay is one of the best 4-star options on Topaz, considering the sustained DPS nature of Hunt characters. Swordplay provides the following perks:

• For each time the wearer hits the same target, DMG dealt increases by 8%, stacking up to 5 time(s). This effect will be dispelled when the wearer changes targets.

Swordplay can be acquired exclusively from the Gacha banners.

2) Only Silence Remains

Only Silence Remains is another 4-star Light Cone that can be pretty helpful for Topaz throughout the game. Like Swordplay, this Light Cone is exclusive to the Gacha banner, making it slightly tricky for everyone to get it. The following perk can be found within the "Only Silence Remains":

• Increases the wearer's ATK by 16%. If two or fewer enemies are on the field, the wearer's CRIT Rate is increased by 12%.

For a more F2P approach on 4-star Light Cones, River Flows in Spring is the only option for anyone. However, it isn't the best gear piece to have for Topaz.
