Character Explanation
Ruan Mei Ruan Mei Memories of the Past is a great 4-star Light Cone for Ruan Mei. Not only does it help in increasing her energy regen to enable her to have a 3-turn Ult rotation, but it also provides her with Break Effect stats.
Trailblazer (Imaginary) Trailblazer (Imaginary) Memories of the Past pairs extremely well with Harmony Trailblazer since it provides Break Effect, an important stat that you should get as much as you can for them.
Yukong Yukong Since Yukong's buffs don't scale with any of her stats, you'll want Yukong to deal some damage through her enhanced Basic ATKs and Ultimate. With this, Memories of the Past is the best Light Cone for Yukong since it increases the wearer's Break Effect and also helps charge Yukong's Ultimate.

Memories of the Past is also great for other Harmony characters who can take advantage of the Light Cone's Energy Regeneration ability.

Is Memories of the Past Worth It?

Great for Harmony Offensive Supports

Memories of the Past's ability is pretty straightforward, it increases the wearer's Break Effect, which enhances the effectivity of Weakness Breaks. Also, the Light Cone also allows its user to gain Energy when they attack, charging their Ultimate. In general, this Light Cone can be used by any Harmony character who will most likely attack an enemy during their turn!

It's worth upgrading Memories of the Past especially if you have Yukong since it's her best in slot. With it, Yukong can be a hybrid of a support and a damage dealer since the bonus Break Effect compliments her enhanced Basic ATK. Also, Memories of the Past allows Yukong to cast her Ultimate more often!
