Top Light Cone Choices

Back to All Characters

The Remembrance path, well-known from the Simulated Universe for its crowd-control freezing mechanics, takes on a new role in Honkai: Star Rail’s version 3.0 update. Now a playable character path, Remembrance shifts focus to summoning units, much like Jing Yuan’s Lightning Lord, offering both damage and support utilities on the battlefield.

As the Ice Remembrance Trailblazer, the character’s core mechanic revolves around charging their summon, Mem. This summon enables allies to deal True DMG while also providing support by advancing ally actions and boosting Crit Rate and Crit DMG. As a support-oriented unit, the Trailblazer’s light cone choices are crucial but limited due to the path’s novelty.

Avoid light cones focused on damage, such as Sweat Now, Cry Less (4-star), Geniuses’ Greetings (4-star), or Time Woven Into Gold (Aglaea’s 5-star signature). These do not align with the Trailblazer’s support role. Below are the top light cone recommendations and why they excel in Honkai: Star Rail.

Victory In a Blink

Top Support Light Cone for Remembrance Trailblazer

HP

ATK

DEF

847

476

397

S5 Passive

Boosts the wearer’s CRIT DMG by 24%. When the wearer’s memosprite uses an ability on an ally, increases all allies’ DMG dealt by 16% for 3 turn(s).

Victory In a Blink, available via the Forgotten Hall’s Light Cone Manifest Store, is the ideal F2P-friendly choice for Remembrance Trailblazer. Its accessibility allows players to acquire and fully superimpose it with enough currency. While the Crit DMG boost is less relevant for a support unit, the secondary effect—enhancing allies’ DMG for three turns—perfectly complements Mem’s support capabilities, making it the top pick.

This light cone is both cost-effective and highly effective, though two other options can serve as alternatives if it’s unavailable, albeit with slightly reduced performance.

Shadowburn

Top 3-Star Light Cone for Remembrance Trailblazer

HP

ATK

DEF

847

318

265

S5 Passive

Upon first summoning memosprite in battle, recovers 1 Skill Point and regenerates 20 Energy for the wearer.

Shadowburn offers a decent option for Remembrance Trailblazer, particularly for speeding up battles. Its key benefit lies in recovering a skill point and generating 20 Energy when Mem is first summoned, which is ideal for short battles or content requiring quick clears. This accelerates Mem’s charge, enabling faster ability usage.

However, its effect only triggers on Mem’s initial summon, limiting its value in prolonged battles beyond 2–3 turns. For longer encounters, other light cones may prove more consistent.

Reminiscence

Top 3-Star Light Cone for Personal DMG

HP

ATK

DEF

635

423

265

S5 Passive

At the start of memosprite’s turn, the wearer and memosprite gain 1 stack of “Commemoration,” increasing DMG dealt by 12% per stack, up to 4 stacks. “Commemoration” is removed when memosprite disappears.

For players lacking higher-tier light cones or aiming to enhance Mem and Trailblazer’s DMG, Reminiscence is a solid 3-star option. Unlike 4-star or 5-star light cones that focus on Basic ATK or Crit Rate, which offer little benefit, Reminiscence’s DMG boost provides modest value for minimal investment.

However, stacking to its full potential takes four turns, as Mem and Trailblazer’s stacks are counted separately. This makes it better suited for longer battles rather than quick clears, unlike Shadowburn’s immediate but fleeting utility. It’s a reasonable choice for players without better options.
