The Simulated Universe is one ofHonkai: Star Rail’smore challenging game modes. It takes players on a roguelite adventure with random bonuses and items that all disappear after every run. These effects bring the power levels of the player’s characters to heights they otherwise won’t be able to reach normally, but the same goes for the enemies they’ll face in these artificial worlds.

World 3 of the Simulated Universeis a particularly problematic experience due to how strong its final boss can be. Even teams above the recommended level of 45 can have a tough time surviving against all the AOE attacks they’ll have to face here. There are many ways to conquer this world inHonkai: Star Rail, though, and here’s one that uses an unexpected combination of characters and Path Blessings.
Honkai: Star Rail - Recommended World 3 Characters
The majority of enemies in World 3 are all weak toPhysical and Lightning DMG;this includes theelitesandGepard, the world’s final boss. With that in mind, here are two team comps to consider using for this challenge:
Victory can be achieved with a pure F2P team usingPhysical Trailblazeras the team’s main DPS, withServal as the secondary damage dealer.March 7this the preferred tank for this for reasons to be explained later, and, of course, always have a healer to help keep the team alive. Use the 5-star counterparts of these units if possible.
Physical Trailblazeris very good at breaking the Toughness bars of the two hardest possible enemies in this Simulated Universe World: Gepard and the Silvermane Lieutenant. The latter may not appear in a run, but if they do, they can be a serious problem because of their strong counter-attacks. Breaking the miniboss' Toughness bar is essential to winning against it.Seelealso does well for this encounter as most Silvermane Guard enemies are weak to Quantum damage.
Path Blessings and Curios
TheElationandRemembrancePaths synergize extremely well with this team composition, though it depends on the player’s luck. Elation blessings can increase March 7th’s counter damageexponentially.When combined with Remembrance’s Freeze-related effects,March can hard-carrythis team with her Ice DMG and follow-up attacks.
This doesn’t mean the rest of the team won’t benefit from the passive effects players can grab on the way to the boss. Here are some recommended Blessings to keep an eye out for:

The Elations damage buffs are ridiculously powerful, which is why March 7th is so effective with this particular setup. Even if players don’t get Champion’s Dinner to buff the rest of the team, having March with counters that deal over 2.5K damage per hit is enough to supplement the group’s DPS against boss-type enemies. Such a setup isextremely RNG-dependent, though.
As for Curios, try to look for the following:
Dimension Reduction Dice can help players find the right Blessings they need to make this setup work. Meanwhile, the Robe of Beauty and Gold Coin of Discord combo can boost the team’s damage output based on the amount of Cosmic Fragments they have. Record from Beyond the Sky, on the other hand, helps the team tank through the many AOE attacks the bosses have in World 3.
Honkai: Star Railis now available on Android, iOS, and PC. A PlayStation version is in development.
