Hook build FAQ
- What is the best Light Cone for Hook?
- I Am As You Behold is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star Destruction Light Cone with 635 base ATK at level 80, and its passive acts on ATK. A Trail of Bygone Blood is the best 4-star alternative.
- Which relic set should Hook use?
- Hero of Triumphant Song. Its 2-piece bonus is: Increases ATK by 12%. Its 4-piece bonus is: While the wearer's memosprite is on the field, increases the wearer's SPD by 6%. When the wearer's memosprite attacks, increases the wearer's and memosprite's CRIT DMG by 30%, lasting for 2 turn(s).
- Which Planar Ornament should Hook use?
- City of Converging Stars. Its 2-piece bonus is: When the wearer uses Follow-Up ATK, increases ATK by 24% for 2 turn(s). When an enemy target gets defeated, increases CRIT DMG for all allies by 12% in the current battle. This effect cannot stack. Planar Ornaments have no 4-piece bonus; the sphere and the rope are the whole set.
