Introduction
Star of Eden: Anti-Entropy is the new Divine Key weapon for Herrscher of Reason. It can be obtained via Weapon Supply starting v6.1 where it's guaranteed to drop after 50 pulls. Its PRI version is named Star of Eden: World and we will be talking about it most of the time on this guide,
Since this weapon is a Divine Key, it will also give 10 ATK to all of your Valkyries. It is highly recommended to get this weapon if you have a built Herrscher of Reason with at least S2 Rank as it is a strong contender for breaking elemental shields and it breathes a new playstyle for HoR.

Weapon Active
Ulysses
- Deals 200% + 800% ATK of Ice DMG
- Deals an additional 1200% ATK of Ice DMG (Treated as Charged ATK) if wielded by Herrscher of Reason
- Inflicts 10 Rime Trauma
- Recovers 15 SP
When equipped by Herrscher of Reason, the weapon active deals an additional 1200% ATK of Ice DMG treated as a Charged ATK, so it benefits from buffs that increases damage of charged attacks.
Star of Eden weapon Active is also capable of gathering enemies, making it helpful on clearing mob floors on Abyss
or Elysian Realm.
Weapon Active in Bike Mode
During Ultimate you can hold the weapon active, and Herrscher of Reason will drift while shooting with her Hover
guns dealing 50% ATK of Ice DMG, you can change the direction of the drift by holding directional keys. These immobilizes targets and generate 110 Konstruktyom that you can use to perform a powerful attack by tapping ATK when the bar is full.
Star of Eden: World vs Domain of Revelation
Star of Eden has very strong shield breaking capability compared to Domain of Revelation, this helps Herrscher of Reason a lot on bosses that have shields like Huodou, HoV.
We can also notice a stronger weapon active damage when equipped by Herrscher of Reason as not only does Star of Eden have higher base multiplier if you combine both 1000% and 1200%, but the latter also benefits from Charged ATK buffs coming from Stigmatas and other sources. This makes her weapon active Capable of breaking shields really fast and SS Rank Jade Knight will further improve this feat.
Quick look on Willows
Leisurely Sipping Set – Willows is the new Best in Slot Stigmata for Herrscher of Reason for two reasons (pun intended).
First, Herrscher of Reason can fully utilize each piece of the Stigmata as Willows requires the user to do Charged ATKs, weapon active and spend 100 SP at once all of which Herrscher of Reason can do. She’s not the only one that can utilize Willows potential, but as for her personal options, Willows fits her well.
Second, Willows doesn’t have the restriction that Ana Shariac has where you have to be within 5 meters to
capitalize her effects. This makes her playstyle more flexible without losing DPS.
I will list the effects of Willows below, but we will not dive deep into it on this guide, I will attempt to make a separate guide for Willows Set, and if I did, I would post it below.

Team Lineup for Herrscher of Reason
Ideal supports would be Jade Knight and Reverist Calico as Jade Knight can provide elemental breach and Shield Break buffs further increasing her shield breaking capability while Reverist Calico can supply SP and DMG buffs for her. Haxxor bunny is still a good alternative option if you are missing one of them.
For Jade Knight gear alternatives you can refer to the Gear options section of my Jade Knight guide here.

Closing Thoughts
Star of Eden: World is strong specially if you own an invested Herrscher of Reason. It's a huge upgrade over her previous weapon and it's definitely worth pulling if you have the crystals for it. It has decent coverage for BIO enemies that has shields like Huodou or HoV but it can still perform well against mech bosses like Kasumi.
Since Willows is farmable it can be an affordable back up DPS for Ice team against bosses where Herrscher of Human: Ego can't handle due to type matchup.
