Best Team Compositions

DPS Should Be Fire, Lightning, Or Wind Type

▲ Best to have weakness type for both Svarog and Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit

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.

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)

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

  1. Keep attacking while triggering a Weakness Break.
  2. Defeat the Auxiliary Robot Arm Unit quickly.
  3. 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

▲ Imprisoned characters cannot take action and nor can allies heal or use abilities on them

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

▲ After the Hand enters the "Overload" state, it will attack a single target dealing massive damage

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

▲ "Power Amplification" effect lasts until the battle ends

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.
