Who is the Lost in Knowledge Scholar in Honkai: Star Rail Suitable for?

The Lost in Knowledge Scholar is a good choice for damage dealers who collect critical chance and damage and rely on skill and ultimate. Due to the ease of activating the ive ability, the set can be equipped on any damage dealer as an alternative to a higher priority set. Below we will take a closer look at the fighters who can become the owners of the set.

Greater Hertha	This set is signature for the character. Firstly, it offers an increase in crit. chance. This is the most popular characteristic, since crit. damage is already increased by 80% due to the "Letter from Beyond the Event Horizon" trace if there is another representative of the Path of Erudition in the squad. Secondly, the enhanced skill and super ability are the main sources of damage that directly affect the effectiveness.
jingliu	The girl is an ideal owner of relics, since the main damage is caused by the skill. The ultimate is often used to transition or extend the status of "Spectral Transmigration", in which the swordswoman gets massive increases in attack power and crit. chance. When equipped with a set, the overall DPS during the battle will increase, and the peak of power will be on the attack with the skill after activating the ultimate in an enhanced stance.
Yanqing	Similarly, it relies on skill, talent enhancement, and ultimate skill. Thanks to the ability "Aimed Sword Throwing", the hero activates the "Empathic Link" status, in which his crit. chance and crit. damage are increased. At the time of using the super ability, additional bonuses to crits appear for one turn, which also enhances the next skill.
Hook	For a girl, the set is a competitive replacement for the fire set. "Forge of fire and lava" with similar buffs. Like the heroes discussed above, when activating the ult, Hook is buffed before using the next skill.
Arlan	The Head of Security uses his own health instead of skill points, which allows him to always perform skill attacks. The character quickly restores energy for the ult, so he can use the maximum damage bonus quite often.
Sushan	The swordswoman's gameplay is based on gradually inflicting damage on one enemy, for which the skill is mainly used. The super ability helps to perform the action immediately, which allows you to instantly use the full ive of the set. It is important to consider that the set will demonstrate itself to be somewhat weaker than the main equipment "Street Boxing Champion", offering more powerful permanent gains.
Serval	The set in question can be equipped if the girl is used as the main damage dealer who actively uses the skill in battle. "Lost in Knowledge Scholar" is not advantageous to put in the case when the main emphasis is on damage from the superpower; in such circumstances, the alternative electric set will be stronger.
Pioneer (Destruction)	As with Serval, the gear is suitable for the Pathfinder (Physical) if he occupies a central position in the team. The character's Ultimate charges quickly, and the skill does good damage to single targets and nearby enemies. However, the gear is still not the best option for a fighter, since "Street Boxing Champion" gives more stable increases to DPS.
Acheron	For Acheron, the kit is an acceptable replacement for a more suitable one "Discoverer of Dead Waters". The heroine deals huge damage with her ult, and in some builds she practically doesn't use the skill, relying on weakening from allies. "Lost in Knowledge Scholar" offers massive increases to the skill, and the bonus to the damage of the superpower acts as an addition.
Argenti	Like Acheron, this set can be an alternative to a higher priority set. Here Justice Blooms is used throughout the fight to build up energy for an expensive ultimate. While it does some decent damage to a crowd of monsters, it's not a primary source of DPS.
Misha	For a young corridor, the set in question can also become a replacement for an ice set or "The Discoverer", if the boy is in the position of the main damage dealer. Misha's skill deals good damage to several targets, but in battle the main emphasis is on the ult with a high total damage multiplier.
Dan Heng	Acts as the main DPS character, which is why he strives to activate the skill in each of his turns. At the same time, the super ability is also an important skill, which makes up the bulk of the damage inflicted. Dan Heng is able to take advantage of all the advantages of the set for lack of other alternatives.
Welt	The senior crew member relies on skills that are enhanced by the relics in question, so he will be able to benefit from them. However, it is important to consider that there are more competitive equipment sets for Mr. Yang, so the "Lore-Lost Scholar" is only considered as an acceptable substitute.

Let's highlight the characters for whom the set is not recommended:

For quantum units "Genius of Diamond Stars" with powerful defense ignoring effects.
Firefly, although it uses the skill to deal the bulk of the damage, it will not benefit from the damage bonuses - the bonuses will not affect the penetration damage.

What relics can be combined with

Two parts of artifacts give a fairly universal increase to the crit. chance characteristic, which is useful for any characters to balance crits. The set in 2x2 format can be combined with the following sets to achieve the desired effects:

to increase attack power: Prisoner of a dark dungeon;
To get a bonus to elemental damage: Bandit Desert Thug;
for general strengthening against enemies under the influence of negative statuses: Discoverer of dead waters;
to increase damage from Burning Duke.
