Honkai Star Rail Simulated Universe World 5 Best Team Comp

Dan Heng is one of the best characters in Simulated Universe World 5

Team 1: Dan Heng, Fire Trailblazer, Natasha, Welt

This is one of the best teams to use in Honkai Star Rail Simulated Universe World 5. This is because Dan Heng can deal with the Wind shields and function as the primary DPS. Welt, on the other hand, can help break Imaginary shields and imprison enemies.

Team 2: Seele, Sambo, Fire Trailblazer, Natasha

In this team, Sampo is the hero as he can break the Wind shields with ease. Ideally, you do not want to bring Seele to World 5. She cannot do shield damage here which limits her viability.

However, Sampo can break shields so effectively that Selee is able to deal raw damage with ease.

Best Path of Resonance for Honkai Star Rail Simulated Universe World 5

Simulated Universe World 5 Path of Resonance
The Abundance is the best Path to choose in Simulated Universe World 5

The best Path of Resonance for Simulated Universe World 5 is The Abundance. The buffs obtained from this path are as follows:

  • Increases the character’s HP recovery by 10%
  • Increases the chance for a Blessing of Abundance to appear more frequently

The reason why this path is so valuable here is two folds. Firstly, the Kafka boss fight stacks several debuffs which need to be cleansed. The Abundance has a Resonance where it helps cleanse all debuffs.

Secondly, it heals all allies to full health every time it is used. This helps to keep the entire team functional throughout World 5. Apart from that, there is a Resonance in this path where simply using this R ability once in a fight puts the same in the command order.

This means that after the end of your turn, you will get healed and cleansed over and over without pressing the R ability. This Resonance is very powerful and is a must-use in this World.

Hence, this concludes our guide for Simulated Universe World 5. If you found it informative, please look into some of our other guides at Dexerto.
