Best Herta Light Cones
Into the Unreachable Veil (signature) is her best Light Cone. Night on the Milky Way is a strong alternative for 5-target scenarios. Today Is Another Peaceful Day (4-star) is an excellent F2P option. Before Dawn and Yet Hope Is Priceless are good stat sticks. For newer players, the free Erudition Light Cones are serviceable.
