A Dream Scented in Wheat

Erudition Light Cone for a wearer whose damage includes Ultimates or Follow-Up ATKs and who benefits from CRIT Rate.

Introduced in v3.4

A Dream Scented in Wheat grants CRIT Rate and increases the wearer's Ultimate DMG and Follow-Up ATK DMG. Consider it when one or both of those attack types contribute to the wearer's damage; the bonus does not cover all damage modes.

Understand A Dream Scented in Wheat

Useful when…

  • An Erudition wearer who benefits from CRIT Rate.
  • A wearer who deals Ultimate DMG or Follow-Up ATK DMG.

Effect details

At S1, the wearer gains 12% CRIT Rate and deals 24% more Ultimate DMG and Follow-Up ATK DMG. At S5, the bonuses rise to 20% CRIT Rate and 40% for those two damage types. The effect does not state a bonus to Basic ATK, Skill, or other DMG.

Compare by attack type

An Instant Before A Gaze grants CRIT DMG and increases Ultimate DMG according to the wearer's Max Energy, counting up to 180 Energy at S1. After the Charmony Fall instead grants Break Effect and increases SPD after the wearer uses Ultimate. A Star That Lights the Night focuses on Assist Skills and builds its Ultimate DMG bonus only after reaching three Sail stacks. These are candidates for different conditions and attack patterns, not automatic replacements for this Light Cone's CRIT Rate and Follow-Up ATK coverage.

Improvement priorities

Promotion advances the Light Cone through stages 0–6. Superimposition raises it from S1 to S5 using a sacrifice copy for each listed rank increase, improving the CRIT Rate and Ultimate/Follow-Up ATK DMG bonuses. Promotion is a direct investment in the equipped copy; consider superimposition if those attack types are central enough to justify consuming duplicates.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • The damage increase is limited to Ultimate DMG and Follow-Up ATK DMG.
  • Its alternatives have distinct conditions, such as Break Effect, Assist Skill use, or Max Energy.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Treating the damage increase as a general DMG bonus for all attacks.
  • Assuming the Assist Skill stack condition on A Star That Lights the Night is part of this Light Cone's effect.
