How to Use the Path of Erudition

Use When Available

Honkai Star Rail - Resonance for Path of Erudition

The Resonance of the Path of Erudition dishes out some minor Imaginary DMG and links the enemy with the highest Max HP with other enemies on the field, inflicting Synapse Resonance.

Synapse Resonance allows an enemy target and the enemy with the highest Max HP to take some Ultimate DMG each time you attack them. Usually, the enemy with the highest Max HP is the elite enemy or the boss on the battlefield.

With this, it is best to use the Resonance of the Path of Erudition right away so you can apply Synapse Resonance to the tankiest enemy on the field!
