Highlights:
* ‘Yet Hope Is Priceless’ Light Cone is literally priceless for the Honkai Star Rail Jade build.
* A sub-DPS, players must prioritize increasing Jade’s Critical Damage and Follow-Up Attack Damage.
Jade has made her debut in Honkai Star Rail 2.3 following the conclusion of Firefly’s banner in the first phase. The Senior Manager of the IPC Strategic Investment Department can be pulled from the ‘Lien on Life, Lease on Fate’ time-limited Warp till the end of July 2024.
Tagged as sub-DPS, Jade finds efficiency in teams that utilize Follow-Up Attacks (FuA) to overwhelm opponents, synergizing with Robin and Dr. Ratio. Her Skill grants Speed buffs to allies whereas her Ultimate deals increase the FuA damage multiplier, beginning from 40% at Level 1 and rising to a maximum of 100% at Level 15.
Best Light Cones and Relic Sets For Jade In Honkai Star Rail
A 5-star character belonging to the Erudition Path, Jade deals Quantum damage to enemies. She is the fifth Quantum character after Sparkle, Silver Wolf, Seele, and Fu Xuan, when it comes to the 5-star category. However, unlike the others, her kit is mostly related to FuA attacks, making her a valuable Sub-DPS if players follow this Jade build guide.
Lady Bonajade requires a Light Cone that increases her Critical Damage and Follow-Up Attack to justify her position as a substitute damage dealer. Thus, the best Light Cone for Jade is the 5-star ‘Yet Hope Is Priceless.’ It increases the wearer’s Critical DMG which in turn triggers more damage from FuA attacks. Additionally, the Light Cone allows Jade’s Ultimate and FuA attacks to ignore the target’s Defense.
The best alternative Light Cones for Jade are ‘Before Dawn’ and ‘Birth of the Self’ in Honkai Star Rail. The former increases the Crit DMG, Ultimate DMG, and FuA DMG. On the other hand, Birth of the Self is a 4-star Light Cone that increases damage from Follow-Up Attacks.
Moving onto Relic Sets, Jade requires equipment that boosts her Follow-Up Attack Damage similar to the Light Cones. Sets that provide increased Critical Damage or Quantum Damage are also beneficial.
For the best Honkai Star Rail Jade build, choose the ‘Grand Duke’s Crown of Netherflame’ 4-piece Relic Set and the ‘Duran, Dynasty of Running Wolves’ 2-piece Ornament Set. The Relics increase the wearer’s ATK by 6% after every Follow-Up Attack and stack up to eight times. The Ornament Set further boosts the FuA attacks of a wearer like Jade.
Eidolon Prioritization For The Best Honkai Star Rail Jade Build
The key Eidolons for the perfect Honkai Star Rail Jade build are E2, E4, and E6. Eidolon 2 ‘Morality? Herein Authenticated’ massively increases Jade’s Critical Hit Rate. Eidolon 4 ‘Sincerity? Put Option Only’ ignores the Defence of targets while Jade uses her Ultimate. It has good synergy with the ‘Yet Hope Is Priceless’ Light Cone as the latter also decreases enemy DEF.
Lastly, Eidolon 6 ‘Equity? Pending Sponsorship’ buffs Jade’s Quantum Resistance Penetration and also her Debt Collector state. The other Eidolons can be ignored as they only increase her Skill or Ultimate Levels.
Jade will be the last new character introduced in the 2.3 Version. After her banner ends in three weeks, Honkai Star Rail 2.4 update will roll out for devices.
