Kafka’s signature Light Cone and other 4-stars in the upcoming Brilliant Fixation event of Honkai Star Rail 1.2

Kafka’s signature Light Cone, Patience Is All You Need, is definitely the highlight of the upcoming Brilliant Fixation event of Honkai Star Rail 1.2. The passive increases her DMG by 24% and SPD by 4.8% after she unleashes an attack. It also has a 100% chance of inflicting Erode on targets not afflicted by the effect.

Erode will be registered as Shocked, which triggers the Lightning DoT at the start of each turn, scaling Kafka’s ATK.

That said, Kafka’s signature option will be available at a boosted drop rate in the next Brilliant Fixation along with the featured 4-star Light Cones listed below:

• The Birth of the Shelf (The Erudition): Increases the wearer’s follow-up ATK damage by 24%. It gets boosted by an additional 24% if the wearer is below or equal to 50% HP.
• Resolution Shine As Pearls of Sweat (The Nihility): When the wearer hits an enemy that is not Ensnared, there is a 60% chance to apply the effect to the target. It will reduce their DEF by 12% for one turn.
• Eyes of the Prey (The Nihility): Increases the wearer’s Effect Hit Rate by 20% and their applied DoT by 24%.

The official Honkai Star Rail preview also outlines the upgrade materials for every Light Cone featured in the next Brilliant Fixation warp.

• Patience Is All You Need: Thief’s Instinct and Obsidian of Dread.
• The Birth of the Shelf: Ancient Part and Key of Inspiration.
• Resolution Shine As Pearls of Sweat: Arifex’s Module and Obsidian of Dread.
• Eyes of the Prey: Ancient Part and Obsidian of Dread.
