Lingsha's abilities multiply ATK. That is read from the scaling rows on the Skill and Ultimate, not from the ability description, so it reflects what the game actually multiplies rather than what the text mentions.

What is the best Light Cone for Lingsha?

Echoes of the Coffin is the closest fit on the data: it is a 5-star Abundance Light Cone with 582 base ATK at level 80, and its passive acts on ATK. Post-Op Conversation is the best 4-star alternative.

Firesmith of Lava-Forging. Its 2-piece bonus is: Increases Fire DMG by 10%. Its 4-piece bonus is: Increases DMG by the wearer's Skill by 12%. After unleashing Ultimate, increases the wearer's Fire DMG by 12% for the next attack.

How much does it cost to max Lingsha's traces?

Taking one ability from level 1 to 10 costs 652,500 Credits and 2× Tracks of Destiny among other materials. The Materials tab lists every item per level.

CoreIron Cavalry Against the Scourge

Top damage-focused option for characters that play within teams that uses Super Break or deal predominantly Break/Super Break damage themselves. Becomes even stronger with additional sources of DEF% reduction. When playing Lingsha in teams with a source of team-wide Super Break, this option boosts her personal damage considerably. Without a source of Super Break this option is not nearly as useful.

2PCIncreases Break Effect by 16%.

4PCIf the wearer's Break Effect is 150% or higher, the Break DMG dealt to the enemy target ignores 10% of their DEF. If the wearer's Break Effect is 250% or higher, the Super Break DMG dealt to the enemy target additionally ignores 15% of their DEF.
