Explanation

Adversarial has average base stats since it's a 3-star Light Cone. Adversial allows its wearer to get a SPD buff when defeating an enemy for 2 turns. Adversarial can be a temporary Light Cone for Sushang since the SPD buff stacks with her Talent.

Is Adversarial Worth It?

Temporary Light Cone for Sushang

You can use Adversarial temporarily if you pulled Sushang during the early game. We recommend replacing it with a better and F2P-friendly The Hunt Light Cone such as Cruising in the Stellar Sea whenever you can.
