The simulated universe mechanics and gameplay are a fun and refreshing mode in Honkai: Star Realm. With each run, players are sure to have different paths and outcomes due to all the different blessings, artifacts, and enemies that they may encounter during that run.
Not only choices from within the Simulated Universe, but players can also take many directions before entering any Simulated Universe in Honkai: Star Realm Which have a direct impact on the experience inside.
8 Alt F4 is your best friend
During any run in the Simulated Universe, players run the risk of losing all of their progress with any battle loss. There are a few ways to prevent losing progress after losing, such as getting the Laurel Crown of Planar Shifts Curio that will protect players from losing a single battle and deeming it a win, except when losing against bosses.
To prevent losing progress unconditionally during any SU run, players simply must Exit the game. No matter what device they are using, Forcibly ending the game will reset players’ progress to a moment before the battle begins. However, note that any pre-battle bonus and Tech Points spent will not return.
7 Character placement is important
Most bosses and enemies in the Simulated Universe have a combination of AoE attacks that can damage multiple allies. Just like NPCs, this type of attack usually targets a target with units next to it. Therefore, tanks should not have squishy characters like Hunt or Erudition next to them. Because of course, the tank unit will taunt or increase the chance of being hit by enemies, which will hurt the characters next to them.
Therefore, players must position their characters as follows: Tank – Healer – Lower squishy character – Squishy character. Placing the squishy character further away from the Taunt unit will ensure that they will be safe from the enemy’s 3-target AoE strike.
6 Simulated universes are flexible
When choosing the first four characters to enter the Simulated Universe in Honkai: Star Realm, players should know that these units are not the last units he chooses. There will be opportunities to access a couple of downloaders while SU is running to add more characters to their roster.
Players can also change their formation at any time given and even Change relics, weapons, and even the Trailblazer’s path. Most importantly, within the Simulated Universe, players can always exit and save their progress so they can continue the same SU run later. This allows people to farm to get some resources in case some of their equipment or characters are not properly leveled.
5 Check out the lineup of enemies
One of the most important things to do before entering any Simulated Universe is to check the enemy formations and prepare the right characters to run. For example, if most enemies are weak to Ice, bringing in Ice characters can be effective.
Checking enemy formations also helps plan the path echo players must acquire in order to pass through this simulated universe with ease. Finally, there are some unique bosses and monsters like Kafka that need specific types of characters that can help against them.
4 Plan your blessings
What makes each Simulation World a special and unique experience is the ability to collect a bunch of blessings while running. For each victory, players will receive three blessings to choose from, divided equally into seven types; Preservation, memory, nothingness, abundance, hunting, destruction, and ecstasy. Each type of blessing significantly alters the experience within the simulated universe. For example, Trailblazers can go for more Save Blessings to be defensive while focusing on Hunt Blessings makes the team more deadly.
Blessings are also divided into rarities with each type of blessing carrying three types of rarities. Most wins will give players a choice of three 1-star blessings, with a small chance of getting a 2-star blessing included. As for 3-star Blessings, they are often won against elite enemies who are very difficult to eliminate. Of course, this is not the only way because certain events and Curios are able to give players more chances to get 3-star blessings.
These few additional notes can also help you understand how to plan your blessings further Honkai: Star Realm. First, it is important to choose wisely and try The newly obtained blessings combined with the blessings already available. This improves the chances of removing the simulated universe. second, Don’t be afraid to reset the blessings When all three choices are bad and unable to add anything to the path already chosen or if players simply want to pile on one type of boon. Finally, some blessings can be completely useless when obtained but are extremely deadly and game-changing when upgraded or synergized with other effects.
3 Enhance your track resonance
Before entering any simulated world in Honkai: Star RealmPlayers can choose from seven paths to take. Each track gives a powerful set of ringing compositions that belong only in this genre of grace. A path’s echo is given after 3 blessings from that path are collected, while chime decks are obtained after players have 6, 10, and 14 blessings of the same kind (path chime and decks are not counted).
Configuring resonance can be a game-changer as it turns path resonance from a mere damage/healing skill into a complex mechanic that must be used with consideration. For example, the cornucopia path’s resonance simply heals without the resonance formations, but with it, he can do other things like revive a shattered character, heal periodically, or purify/prevent a debuff.
2 Feel free to spend Herta bonds
While Herta’s store doesn’t have many options, it does have one of the rarest items in it Honkai: Star Realm. After clearing any simulated world for the first time or after achieving the Weekly Score, players will receive Herta Bonds, a currency to use within the Herta Shop. Players should not be afraid to spend their hard-earned Herta Bonds inside this shop since there is nowhere else to take advantage of the currency. On top of that, players will continue to earn Herta Bonds on a weekly basis, so purging the shop of all its items is inevitable.
1 Watch out for bad artifacts
Although most Curios in Honkai: Star Realm Grant positive effects, there are instances where players may get stuck with negative effects. This could happen from events such as when players travel to the spider’s lair, or if people choose to get 300 Cosmic Fragments and passive artifacts with it. For example, Curios like Black Forest Cuckoo Clock will put a random ally under constant threat of attack from enemies. Some Curios will also harm save cosmic parts such as the Perpetual Motion Cuckoo Clock, or even severely harm team synergy by removing two skill points at the start of any battle with a mechanical cuckoo clock effect.
There are some Curios in between, offering great perks with big stakes like the Galactic Big Lotto, which gives players a chance to receive an extra Curio when they break things and risk losing 99% of the entire team’s HP.
in addition to, Although Broken Code Curio is passive at first, players must always obtain it. It provides an annoying disadvantage in the next three battles, but will then turn that disadvantage into a useful feature throughout the entire Simulated Universe. The broken symbol always appears in a room with three enemiesso that players can fix it immediately before going to the next room.
