Honkai Star Rail Mydei E1 vs S1: Is it Worth Pulling for His Eidolon or Light Cone?

The launch of the second Phase of Honkai Star Rail version 3.1 has introduced Mydei as a new 5-star character available for all players. Trailblazers looking to enhance their gameplay can spend their hard-earned Stellar Jades to pull for Mydei and his exclusive Light Cone from their respective banners. To maximize Mydei’s combat capabilities, many players prioritize acquiring his first Eidolon or his signature Light Cone.

During the active banner for Mydei and his signature Light Cone, titled Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path, players should prioritize pulling this Light Cone over his first Eidolon. While both the Eidolon and the Light Cone offer significant boosts, the overall value of the Light Cone greatly surpasses that of the first Eidolon.

The Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path Light Cone not only enhances Mydei’s abilities with a passive HP increase, but it also grants an impressive 60% damage boost when Mydei uses his skills while consuming more than 500 HP. Given that Mydei’s powers scale with HP, he can maintain an abundant health pool, allowing him to easily meet the HP consumption requirement when activating his skills.

On the other hand, Mydei’s first Eidolon increases the damage multiplier of his Godslayer Be God skill by a mere 30%. While this enhancement does improve his skill’s effectiveness and can transform it into an AoE attack, its value diminishes in specific end-game scenarios like Apocalyptic Shadow and Memory of Chaos. However, it performs decently in Pure Fiction due to most enemies having a lower HP pool.

Overall, the comparison reveals that the Flame of Blood, Blaze My Path Light Cone offers significantly more benefits than Mydei’s first Eidolon. Therefore, it is advisable to focus on pulling for the Light Cone while the second phase of Honkai Star Rail version 3.1 is underway.
