Inherently Unjust Destiny Best Characters

All Best Characters

Character Explanation
Aventurine Aventurine Inherently Unjust Destiny is Aventurine's best in slot. Aventurine's Skill provides allies with a shield, which will then give him a CRIT DMG buff due to Inherently Unjust Destiny's ability. Additionally, Aventurine also has a follow-up attack due to his Talent. So, he can benefit from Inherently Unjust Destiny's follow-up attack DMG buff.

Other Recommended Characters

Other Characters
Star Rail - March 7th ItemMarch 7th

March 7th can also use Inherently Unjust Destiny since she is a Preservation character that has a follow-up attack and can shield allies.

But unlike Aventurine, the DMG of March 7th's Talent and Ultimate scales off her ATK stat. So, the DEF buff that Inherently Unjust Destiny provides will not increase their DMG.

Also, March 7th is better used as a DEF-focused shield support. Which makes Inherently Unjust Destiny not optimal for March 7th.

Is Inherently Unjust Destiny Worth It?

Great For Aventurine

Inherently Unjust Destiny provides everything that Aventurine needs to maximize his effectiveness in battle.

The Light Cone gives Aventurine an increase in DEF, a DMG buff to his follow-up attack, and a CRIT DMG buff to him whenever he uses his Skill. With this in mind, no other character can fully utilize the Light Cone's ability.

Helps Increase Acheron's Slashed Dream

Inherently Unjust Destiny can make Aventurine a great support for Acheron since the Vulnerability debuff can generate Slashed Dream stacks to activate the latter's Ultimate.

For Other Characters

While March 7th can use Inherently Unjust Destiny, increasing her Effect Hit Rate is more beneficial for her. This is because increasing the stat will increase her Ultimate's chance to Freeze enemies. So, Moment of Victory is still better.

Characters like Gepard who can give shields to all allies can trigger the CRIT DMG buff but they will not benefit much from it. They also will not be able to use the follow-up attack DMG buff.

Should You Pull?

No other 5-star Light Cone is as offense-oriented as Inherently Unjust Destiny. So, if you are pulling Aventurine, then consider getting Inherently Unjust Destiny as well.

But, if you are short on Stellar Jades, you can buy Moment of Victory using Undying Starlight since it is a Light Cone that can provide Aventurine with a massive DEF boost, a stat which his kit scales off.

If you cannot afford to get Moment of Victory, Destiny’s Threads Forewoven is a good F2P alternative since the Light Cone increases Aventurine's DMG for every 100 of his DEF stat.

hmm the page didn't really state out this LC is actually great for staking Acheron Ulti, which is useful info for new player that want to focus on Acheron metas

1 Anonymous Anonymous over 1 year

I think this LC would work for March since she does a follow up if she anyone protected by a shield gets attacks she deals a follow up attack
