Baptism of Pure Thought Best Characters
All Best Characters
| Character | Explanation |
|---|---|
 Dr. Ratio
|
Baptism of Pure Thought is great for Dr. Ratio since it directly increases his DMG. It also gives his Follow-Up Attacks DEF ignore after using his Ultimate, where he can do additional Follow-Up Attacks with this buff on. The bonus CRIT DMG for every debuff on the target, which is another effect of Baptism of Pure Thought, is a nice bonus and synergizes well with his kit! |

Baptism of Pure Thought is a great Light Cone for characters who can use the crit stats it provides and those who utilize debuffs in their kit. It's also great for characters who use Follow-Up Attacks.
Is Baptism of Pure Thought Worth It?
Great For Dr. Ratio
Baptism of Pure Thought increases CRIT DMG and boosts it even further for every debuff on the enemy. This is amazing for Dr. Ratio since it synergizes with his kit, and the Disputation effect makes his Follow-Up Attacks more potent by giving them DEF ignore.
This allows Dr. Ratio to have even more damage on his Follow-Up Attacks and the additional direct DMG increase can be pretty significant as well.
Should You Pull?
Baptism of Pure Thought is a good choice if you want to boost purely the DMG of a character. Compared to In the Night, this Light Cone provides a better DMG boost for characters whose main source of damage is Follow-Up attacks.
The Disputation effect is amazing and the additional CRIT DMG can be used by almost any DPS. The only downside is that to trigger the effect, the character needs to have a damaging Ultimate which shouldn't be a problem for most Hunt characters.
Characters with non-damaging Ultimates or who have no Follow-Up Attacks in their kit can still use this Light Cone, but they'll miss out on the Disputation effect. This Light Cone is best for characters who use Follow-Up Attacks like Dr. Ratio.
