Best Relics for Herta

Scholars Lost in the Sea of Knowledge Currently the best Relic set for Herta. This set increases Critical Rate by 8% and increases Skill and Ultimate damage by 20%. In addition, it also increases the damage from the next Skill by 25% after using the Ultimate Skill, which is very suitable for Herta because her skills are enhanced after activating the Ultimate Skill. This is her main attack, making this set an ideal choice.
In addition, the set Snow Covered Hunter (4 dishes) is also another good choice. This set increases Ice Damage by 10% and increases Critical Damage by 25% after using Ultimate Skills. You can also combine 2 dishes of Scholars Lost in the Sea of Knowledge and Snow Covered Hunter if you have good stats from these items.
Best Plane Accessories for Herta
- Izumo in the Realm and the Kingdom of Heaven
- The Derelict Planet Sigonia
Izumo in the Realm and the Kingdom of Heaven is the best Plane Accessory set for Herta. This set increases the wearer’s Attack by 12%, and if the squad has at least one ally, the Strike Rate is also increased by 12%. With Herta certain to have a Knowledge path ally in her lineup, this set is the perfect choice for her.
Additionally, you can also use The Derelict Planet Sigonia when building Herta for the Fictional Storytelling lineup. This set is very suitable for Fate of Knowledge DPS characters in Fictional Storytelling, thanks to the ability to increase Critical Damage by up to 40% almost continuously.
Primary and Secondary Index for Herta
- Head: HP / Critical Rate % > Critical Damage % > Attack % > Speed
- Hand: Attack / Critical Rate % > Critical Damage % > Attack % > Speed
- Body: Critical Strike Rate % / Critical Strike Damage % > Attack % > Speed
- Foot: Attack % / Critical Strike Rate % > Critical Strike Damage % > Speed
- Space Ball: Ice Damage % / Clash Rate % > Clash Damage % > Attack % > Speed
- Link Wire: Attack % / Critical Strike Rate % > Critical Strike Damage % > Speed
For Herta’s stats, you need to prioritize increasing the Strike Rate as high as possible. Herta’s passive greatly increases Critical Damage, so reaching 90%-100% Critical Rate with Relics and Cone of Light will allow her to take down enemies quickly. After that, focus on Critical Damage, aiming for at least 120% or more to maximize the damage from her attacks. Finally, increases Attack % and Speed.
Herta does not necessarily have high Speed, unless the squad requires it. Her Ultimate gives her 100% action, so if you have good AoE damage dealing characters in your team, you don’t need to worry too much about applying stacks to enemies.

Best Cone of Light for Herta
- Toward the Unquestionable
- The Rest of Genius
- Today Is A Peaceful Day
- The Day the Milky Way Collapsed
- Infinite Extrapolation
- Proper Breakfast
When it comes to choosing a Light Cone for Herta, Toward the Unquestionable is the most typical and optimal equipment for her. However, if you are looking for alternatives, The Rest of Genius – a 4-star Cone of Light belonging to the Destiny of Knowledge, will be a more suitable and accessible choice. With Herta’s high maximum mana output, Today Is A Peaceful Day is also an equipment worth considering.
Additionally, you still have other alternatives such as The Day the Milky Way Collapsed, Proper Breakfastor Infinite Extrapolation – a 5-star Cone of Light can be easily collected from the player store for free.
Best lineup for Herta
| Main DPS | Support / Secondary DPS | Substain | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best Team | Herta | Jade (Support/Secondary DPS) Robin (Support)
| Lingsha |
| Substitution Lineup 1 | Herta | Himeko (secondary DPS) Robin (Support) | Lingsha |
| Substitution Lineup 2 | Herta | Argenti (secondary DPS) Harmony Explorer (Support) | Lingsha |
| F2P Team | Herta | Serval (Recharge) Harmony Explorer (Support) | Gallagher |
Herta’s biggest limitation lies in the number of squads that can optimize her strength. In particular, Jade – the only support character of the Knowledge destiny, plays a key role in exploiting Herta’s potential. With Jade’s ability to be both a Sub-DPS and a support, you can add Robin for the support role and Lingsha to take on the tank position, creating a balanced squad.
In the absence of Jade, Himeko or Argenti can take on a secondary DPS role alongside Herta. Regarding tank positions, characters with the ability to deal large area damage like Lingsha are often prioritized.
For free players, there are many suitable alternatives. Serval and Herta’s 4-star version are both reliable Sub-DPS. In particular, Serval can also act as an “energy battery” for Herta if the build focuses on Ultimate Skills. Besides, The Pioneer of Harmony is an excellent alternative to Robin in a support role.
