Understand Inherently Unjust Destiny
Useful when…
- A Preservation wearer who provides shields and contributes follow-up attacks.
- A build that can use extra DEF, brief CRIT DMG, and enemy damage-taken vulnerability.
What does it do?
At S1, it increases the wearer’s DEF by 40%. When the wearer provides a shield to an ally, their CRIT DMG rises by 40% for 2 turns. When their follow-up attack hits an enemy, it has a 100% base chance to make that target take 10% more damage for 2 turns. These values rise with superimposition; the follow-up effect’s listed chance is a base chance, so it is not a guarantee against every target.
Who makes practical use of it?
The full package favors a wearer who both shields allies and uses follow-up attacks: shielding activates the personal CRIT DMG bonus, while the follow-up attack can apply vulnerability to the enemy it hits. If either action is absent or infrequent, part of the passive will contribute less often. Amber instead gives DEF and adds more when the wearer’s current HP is below 50%; Concert for Two adds wearer damage for each on-field character with a shield. Those alternatives have different activation conditions and do not reproduce this Light Cone’s full combination.
What should be improved first?
Promotion raises the Light Cone’s level through six stages. Superimposition consumes one S1 copy per step and strengthens its listed passive values: for example, DEF increases from 40% at S1 to 64% at S5, while the follow-up vulnerability rises from 10% to 16%. Consider promotion for general stat growth; reserve extra copies for superimposition when this wearer’s shielding and follow-up pattern makes the stronger effects useful.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- The CRIT DMG bonus requires the wearer to provide a shield to an ally.
- The damage-taken effect requires a follow-up hit and is stated as a base chance.
- Superimposition uses additional copies of the Light Cone.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming the CRIT DMG bonus activates merely because the wearer already has a shield; the wearer must provide a shield to an ally.
- Treating the follow-up vulnerability’s base chance as unconditional certainty.
