Erudition
Ice5★Released: 14/01/2025 · v3.0 “The writers from the Intelligentsia Guild wanted to give me an extra title. Something like “Herta Prime” to separate me from my puppets. How banal. Are the puppets not “me” as well? So, I gave them a suggestion: if they dared to write that, then I would call myself THE Herta. It’s short, simple, straight to the point, and elegant.”
The Herta is an AoE damage dealer who fights with her Enhanced Skill. While she is on the field, attacks from her allies can place a special mark on enemies, and the more stacks of that mark there are, the higher the damage The Herta deals. During exploration, The Herta’s Technique can mark the location of Common Loot on the map.
The Herta should be built as a CRIT DPS, prioritizing ATK, CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG.
Scholar Lost in Erudition is the strongest Relic set for The Herta, because it provides a very large amount of Skill DMG every time she uses her Ultimate.
For Planar Ornaments, Izumo Gensei and Takama Divine Realm works best on The Herta thanks to the CRIT Rate it provides, and she always wants to be paired with another character on the Path of Erudition.
You can also use Rutilant Arena for extra Skill DMG.
Prioritize reaching at least 80% CRIT Rate over CRIT DMG, because Herta automatically gains 80% CRIT DMG from her Trace when another Erudition character is on the team.
For SPD, any speed breakpoint from 134 upward is fine for The Herta to gain extra turns in a cycle.
If Jade is on the team and uses her Skill on The Herta, you only need to build 113 SPD on Herta.

Deals Ice DMG equal to 140% of The Herta’s ATK to one designated enemy.
Deals Ice DMG equal to 88% of The Herta’s ATK to one designated enemy, and inflicts 1 stack(s) of “Interpretation.” Deals Ice DMG equal to 88% of The Herta’s ATK to the targets hit by this instance of Skill and their respective adjacent targets. This effect can repeat 2 times.
Rearranges the numbers of “Interpretation” stacks on all enemies, prioritizing the transfer of the higher numbers of “Interpretation” stacks to Elite-level targets and above. Then, deals Ice DMG equal to 250% of The Herta’s ATK to all enemies. When using Ultimate, increases The Herta’s ATK by 100%, lasting for 3 turn(s). After the use, The Herta immediately takes action and gains 1 stack of “Inspiration.” “Inspiration” can stack up to 4 time(s). While having “Inspiration,” enhances Skill to “Hear Me Out.”
When enemy targets enter combat, The Herta inflicts 1 stack of “Interpretation” on them. At the start of each wave, applies 25 stack(s) of “Interpretation” to a random enemy target, prioritizing Elite-level targets and above. When the Enhanced Skill’s primary target has “Interpretation,” the multiplier for the DMG dealt increases, with each stack granting an increase of 10.0%/5.0% on the primary target/other targets respectively. If 2 or more characters follow the Path of Erudition in the team, each stack grants an additional increase of 10.0%/5.0% on the primary target/other targets respectively. “Interpretation” can stack up to 42 time(s). When using the Enhanced Skill, resets the number of “Interpretation” stacks on the primary target to 1. After the enemy target leaves the field or gets defeated by any unit, “Interpretation” will be transferred, prioritizing the transfer to Elite-level targets and above.
After using Technique, increases The Herta’s ATK by 60% at the start of the next battle, lasting for 2 turn(s).
If there are Basic Treasures in this current map, using Technique can mark up to 3 Basic Treasures’ locations.
After entering battle by using Technique in Simulated Universe or Divergent Universe, at the start of each wave, deals True DMG to enemy targets lower than Elite-level by an amount equal to 99% of the targets’ Max HP, and deals True DMG to enemy targets at Elite-level and above by an amount equal to 30% of the targets’ Max HP.
When the Enhanced Skill calculates the number of “Interpretation” stacks, additionally counts 50% of the number of “Interpretation” stacks on the 1 target with the most stacks among the primary target and adjacent targets. When “Interpretation” is reset by using the Enhanced Skill, its stack number is reset to 15 instead.
After The Herta enters combat or uses Ultimate, additionally gains 1 “Inspiration” stack. After using Enhanced Skill, advances The Herta’s next action by 35%.
Skill Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15.
Talent Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15.
The SPD of Erudition characters in the team increases by 12%.
Ultimate Lv. +2, up to a maximum of Lv. 15.
