Memories of the Past

For the Path of: Harmony Tier A

Memories of the Past is a 4★ Light Cone for the Path of Harmony in Honkai: Star Rail.

A readily farmable 4-star that grants +28% Break Effect plus bonus Energy on attack (once per turn), making it a strong pick for break-focused builds while being fairly niche outside that role.

Story

An old photo lies on the far end of the table in the guardian's residence. She would always subconsciously move her eyes away whenever she happened to see it. The memories of the past had already become distant, but the dreams of today still linger.

Trivia & Origins

HoYoverse's own game data has no gacha table pairing this cone with a specific character, and the internal flavor text doesn't name one either — not enough evidence to assign a signature owner, no guessing.

How to read this Light Cone page

Every Light Cone has exactly one passive effect tied to the wielder's combat performance; that effect scales up as you Superimpose it from S1 to S5 — use the S1-S5 buttons above to see the exact numbers at each level instead of guessing or interpolating. A Light Cone only delivers its full value on a character who shares its Path; "Characters who use this cone" lists every character on that Path, while "Best users" is a narrower list pulled from real build consensus, not a guess.

Base stats (HP/ATK/DEF) are shown at Lv80 for every cone of the same rarity so they can be compared directly; a 5-star cone will always edge out 4-star and 3-star ones here — the real difference lives in the passive effect, not the flat stats. The "Alternative cones on the same Path" section suggests a few other options if you do not own the signature cone yet, or want to compare before spending ascension materials.
