Long Road Leads Home
Long Road Leads Home is a 5★ Light Cone for the Path of Nihility in Honkai: Star Rail.
As a 5-star that grants a massive 60% Break Effect and layers on a stacking debuff that increases Break DMG taken, it's a best-in-slot pick for any Break-focused DPS.
Increases the wearer's Break Effect by 60%. When an enemy target's Weakness gets broken, there is a 100% base chance to inflict the "Charring" state on it, which increases its Break DMG taken by 18%, lasting for 2 turn(s). This effect can stack 2 time(s).
"Who... Is she?" The girl caresses the unfamiliar self. She recalls how the fire that day had swallowed her whole, and how her bejeweled fan turned into ash. She had once walked on a never-ending road, looking for the light ahead. The sounds outside were calling for her, leading her forward, guiding her through the layers of night. The sounds within reminded her of those unfulfilled promises, unexecuted plans, and unrealized wishes... They were all still waiting for her. They never dissipated in the fire, but instead, glowed ever brighter in the flames. "That is me..." She stands at the end of the road and no longer looks back in reminiscence — "It's the original me, and also the brand-new me."
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.
