The guide on Svarog, Chapter 1 Boss fight in Honkai: Star Rail. Includes Simulated Universe World 4, defeating the Hand, Weakness, Best Team Build, Battle tips and Skills.
Best Team Compositions
DPS Should Be Fire, Lightning, Or Wind Type
Svarog is resistant to Crowd Control debuffs and has three weaknesses: Fire, Wind and Lightning. A lot of the normal enemies in World 4 are also weak to Fire and Lightning so choose your DPS from those 3 types.
When Svarog summons the Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit, you need to defeat it or trigger a Weakness Break quickly. It is weak to Lightning, Wind and Quantum. Your DPS should also cover those types if possible.
Best Team Comps - How To Build
[Main Story] Sampo Team
This team is for the Svarog Boss battle in Chapter 1: Jarilo-VI - To Rot or to Burn. The three attackers can trigger a Weakness Break and when an ally is imprisoned, free them or defeat the Hand quickly with Sampo and Serval.
Character Replacements
Triggering a Weakness Break becomes very important for this battle, so choose a Wind or Lightning type character if you want to replace someone. If you need more durability, include March 7th in the team to use her shield.
[Simulated Universe] Fire Trailblazer Team
Fire Trailblazer | Bronya | Asta | Natasha |
DPS Durability | Advanced Forward DMG buff | Toughness DMG DMG/SPD buff | Healer Debuff Remover |
This team includes the Fire Trailblazer, who has the weakness type of many enemies in World 4 of the Simulated Universe and is reliable for both offense and defense. Get many Preservation Blessings to improve durability and increase DMG output.
Character Replacements
You can use most characters that have the enemies' weakness. You can also use characters with a high DMG output like Seele if they have enough Eidolons and upgrades.
[Simulated Universe] Elation Clara Team
Clara | March 7th | Natasha | Himeko |
Counterattack *irreplaceable | Shield Taunt | Healer Debuff Remover | Follow-up ATK Toughness DMG |
Clara becomes extremely reliable in the Simulated Universe by choosing Elation Blessings. If you have enough Elation Blessings, you can even defeat the boss with her alone.
If you do plan to defeat the boss with just Clara, make sure you activate your Path Resonance when the Hand is summoned in the 3rd phase to avoid being imprisoned.
Character Replacements (*Clara is irreplaceable)
Tingyun | Bronya | Asta | Bailu |
DMG buff Energy regen | DMG buff Advanced Forward | DMG buff SPD buff | Healer Weakness Type |
We recommend characters that can improve your damage output and Energy regeneration if you want to replace someone. However Clara is a must for this team, so try another team if you don't have her.
World 4 Boss Guide
- Keep attacking while triggering a Weakness Break.
- Defeat the Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit quickly.
- Try to end the battle as fast as you can.
1. Keep Attacking While Triggering A Weakness Break
Svarog uses powerful buff and debuff skills. Also, his HP bar has 3 phases. His weaknesses are Fire, Lightning and Wind so include those combat types in your team and keep attacking.
2. Defeat The Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit Quickly
Svarog summons weaker enemies in each phase and in the 3rd phase, he summons the Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit. This enemy imprisons a single target and keeps dealing damage to them. The imprisoned character cannot take action until you trigger a Weakness Break or deal enough damage to it so you need to prioritize freeing them.Be sure to defeat the Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit
Once you free an imprisoned character, The Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit will attack a single target dealing massive damage. There is no reason to let it do that, so be sure to finish it off once you free your imprisoned character.
You can also prevent any other enemies from spawning by ignoring an imprisoned character, but the Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit will keep dealing damage to them and you can't heal them either so it is not recommended.
3. Try To End The Battle As Fast As You Can
Svarog's skills "Power Amplification" and "Oversaturated Bombardment" buffs the enemies' ATK and debuffs your DEF. These effects can be stacked and the ATK buff lasts until the battle ends. The enemies' DMG output will keep increasing as long as the battle continues, so prioritize defeating the boss than playing it safe.
