Is Lies Dance on the Breeze Worth It?

Cipher's Signature Light Cone

Lies Dance on the Breeze provides a good SPD increase, which can help Cipher reach the 170 SPD required to activate the second level of CRIT Rate and tally gain increases from her Bonus Ability.

Since Cipher is meant to be built with high CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG stats, she'll also be able to deal stronger critical hits thanks to the Light Cone's DEF shred.

Should You Get It?

Lies Dance on the Breeze is generally a good option for other Nihility units that require a lot of SPD and act as DEF shred debuffer.

This LC is very good for Pela and SW... it's also even Kafka's BiS LC when not running Tutorial... pretty much any supportive Nihility character can use her LC
