The Hell Where Ideals Burn
The Hell Where Ideals Burn is a 5★ Light Cone for the Path of The Hunt in Honkai: Star Rail.
A powerful 5-star cone offering flat CRIT Rate plus conditional ATK scaling, but its full value depends on the team's Skill Point limit and repeated Skill usage, making it strong yet somewhat build-specific rather than universally best-in-slot.
Increases the wearer's CRIT Rate by 16%. When entering combat, if the allies' Skill Points limit is 6 or higher, increases the wearer's ATK by 40%. After each use of the wearer's Skill, increases the wearer's ATK by 10%, stacking up to 4 time(s).
The flames of karma ignite the plains. The ideals of unknowns turn to ashes, as the ideals of others burn passionately. The Guardian traverses between bullets and arrowheads. He can save no one here. He can save everyone here. Kill one person to save one person. Kill ten thousand to save ten thousand. The fate of trampling over our peers is one part of humanity's continued existence. The Guardian had already grown used to all this, and his steps never hesitated. The determination that covers his legs is like wind. The determination that covers his arms is like fire. He is still seeking a miracle that can bring forth salvation.
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.
