How to Easily beat Swarm Disaster w/ this STRATEGY!! Difficulty 5, 4, 3 | Honkai: Star Rail

[@zmm1337]

Sometimes I stream myself in pain here: www.twitch.tv/zetomai Updated BEST & EASY Strategy for ANY teams: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6XVoKCiZah4g7s *REMEMBER THAT YOU CAN --> Close client (alt+f4) if you're about to wipe. You'll be spawned back in front of the boss when you log in again. It's Good for RNG manipulation *Remember to Copy REWARD (chest) & ADVENTURE (videogame) Nodes!! *If you don't need the general tips, then go to 12:15 until the end especially 19:00 for the whole strat. 14:55 for Diff 5 Boss Showcase using 4 stars. *For this Remembrance strat: Do NOT Pick fights w/ Cocolia or Frigid Ice Elites EVER *HOWEVER It's more efficient to visit the commune trail for rewards at 9:45 and progress it first rather than cheese early 👍 *More Tips*: 0) Content is PERMANENT. So DONT FEEL PRESSURED to try and complete it all day 1. It's actually better / MORE EFFICIENT to go through the PROGRESSION TRAIL at 9:45 in order to GET ALL THE GEMS & REWARDS. But you still have the option to beat it all Day 1 if you wanted to (similar to Zelda Breath of the Wild). 1) My goal was to find the cheapest build/strategy that everyone can use even f2p without needing any limited 5 star units like Dan Heng IL. 2) For team builds, you DON'T need all ice characters (but they do help a lot for break), you can replace Pela w/ someone like QQ, your characters aren't doing the damage, the 2 BLESSINGS here are (12:54). The key build is just March 7th (why? She has on demand freeze that can follow up after the resonance ability is used to shred the enemy's resistance 14:13). ALSO at 15:12, resonance path ability is used first AFTER enemy's 1st action to lower it's res so MARCH can freeze (enemy has CC resist). TEAM COMP: MARCH + whoever + healer + aoe (can be anyone like QQ, but Herta or Kafka works best). Early game: bring DPS to help clear until you can get the 2 BLESSINGS. Late game: BUILD TANKY / GET DEFENSIVE blessings 3) Aim to duplicate domain nodes like the ADVENTURE + REWARDS nodes 4) There's so much more grind (in terms of rewards and completionism) than just beating the hardest stage. This is just an early game strat that I found very enjoyable and cheesy to do as you will come to find that brute forcing normally will not work, the enemies on the last floor have ungodly amount of damage and tankiness. 9:45 (the commune trail) is THE REAL ENDGAME GRIND.👍

[@todaysoxygenisokay1315]

Can Gepard work instead of March? I don't have her built 😅

[@VAYu1u]

With this strategy, Do you need to reset if you dont see the ice weakness debuff ?

[@zmm1337]

@@todaysoxygenisokay1315 Will be a little harder since there's no AoE stun for the minions that get spawned, but should still be okay. there's also the communing trail upgrade which is great for giving your team permanent boosts!

Regarding replayability, this mode still gives free relic materials for playing it, so if you're bored of the normal SU, you can just play this for your weekly relic mat farm, it can be a lot faster if all you're trying to do is book it to the boss node.

Yeah im surprised by how much mat one can get. Also the commune trail gives good reward too for replayability

The problem with Nihility is that the 3rd stage boss is catered around delaying his turns. If you delay his turns too much on the boss on not the adds, you end up dying from Wind Shear stacks. Best would be the 2 busted Remembrance blessings + Nihility + delaying all enemy actions + not getting a single fordward action blessing (Nihility/Hunt mixed resonance is actually a trap, since it forwards your actions too much and you die from the enemy DoTs.)

after completing diff 5 and unlocking propagation path, I assure you this are the good blessing you can use to pass the swarm , firstly pick Nihility as the start and then combine them with propagation and hunt so you basically will have kafka in your team without even using her , and if u are lucky enough try getting the action will be forwarded after breaking weakness or kill an enemy , and then pick the apply dissolation after breaking weakness ( rememberance ) ,for the team if u have dan heng il than its bassically a win if you dont then use the unit u had , even its blade he can still yeet them all just make sure you get the blessings right its all you have to do , and dont forget to always to check on herta’s curio everytime when u enter the transaction zone , if u get the curio that can make you still win even after you lose a battle then you can skip the 2nd boss and automatically fight the bugs 💀 , ik its sound hard but trust me guys once you get there you will bully this bugs just like i did now everyday 🤣

You don't actually have to use ice characters for path of rememberance, it adds sources of freeze but that's all.

If you know what you are doing and get the right blessings you can clear it easily!

[@riida435]

Honestly, I think if you have M7th built with Hit Rate Effect and other characters with nice AoE Damage it will be enough to use Remembrance Path, since it only needs them to be frozen (and M7th does it very well imo).

However, remembrance is just a bit diff since it relies heavily on CC and cheesing that way. CC is broken xD. but this is why I love this content. there's so many strats to try & discover. Nihility is probaby one of the least played path so there's so much to discover there. I hope you find an amazing one in it! Let me know if you do, I would love to know. Have fun!

[@leonwoo]

Nihility with Kafka will do a lot of damage, but at the same time the bosses here in this mode also have much, much more health than their regular SU counterparts, so again, survivability will be the problem. In this mode, you will need some form of survivability no matter how strong your dps is, as you won't be able to pull of 1 turn kills like in regular SU. Remembrance works very well in this strat as not only does it aid in survivability with constant freezes and disassociations, but also in terms of damage it's very high as when disassociation breaks, it deals a % of their hp, letting you focus more of surviving while letting the freezes destroy the boss.

[@damidir]

Idk man, tried nihility path with Kafka and Sampo, you definitely need appropriate weakness on the final boss for break effect, cant just brute force with dot like the regular SU, that's why i've been doing it with Blade on Hunt path with addition of Gepard

[@VAYu1u]

I cleared level 5 with nihility (kafka+ sampo) but yeah i needed the lightning weakness on final boss.Thats my one and only clear btw. I think that swarm disaster will get slowly and gradually easier as we build upgrades from the paths menu thing.

[@VAYu1u]

Also i tried to use hunt (seele) and destruction (clara) before but failed, but i suspect i was doing something unoptimal. Maybe i shouldve used clara with preservation or elation instead of destruction.

[@daanonypixel2826]

holy cow learnt something new tdy to think you can actually play the game this way

[@zmm1337]

Yeah, remembrance is OP. You can just have 0 DPS and still do 1m damage per turn xD

[@ItsYourXLNC]

Now only if they can bring Multiplayer raid events where I can play with my friends. One day...

[@zmm1337]

DUDDDEE that would be insanely cool. Coop endgame would be a banger... I hope they add that in future events

[@ItsYourXLNC]

@@zmm1337 Yeah, one can hope. :(

[@tavencravengreatness2681]

I will definitely need to get the progression completed like the normal SU for the stat boosts

[@zmm1337]

Yeah this was just a for fun cheesy strat (it's ironically not efficient to do this), eventually everyone who want the rewards will have to visit the commune trail and progress it for the free loot

Great stuff, thanks

Yeah they hit like a truck and defensive blessings / putting your units on tanky gear is a good play!

[@ahmadtarmizi6214]

Welpp time to build ice team ig

[@zmm1337]

there are many other strategies out there as well! All paths are viable (find one that suits your existing team! there are many other guides out now like preservation, abundance, etc.) Also Once you start clearing the communing trail it becomes easier and more like the regular SU.

[@albiflora]

I just committed American on the trotters with my Bronya

[@zmm1337]

LOL that seems so fun

[@shanextrm7378]

I beat difficulty 5 with disarray level 6 just to clear the pathfinder mission. It was my first run and clear with fire mc, gepard , blade and luocha with preservation path. It was freaking inssane lol. Didnt expect to win but the team was immortal.

[@uniwolfgamer1094]

I would like to say, I don't believe this ice-strat is necessary to beat the boss, but I may look back on this and use it if I find myself unable to do it my way. Secondly, for those comments saying Hoyoverse cares more about Star Rail than Genshin, the games have different teams. Star Rail's prefers to listen to players. I myself find it hard to believe a game I like (Star Rail) can be created by the same company of game(s) I hate/couldn't progress easily (Genshin & Honkai Impact 3(?) )

[@kylorenn2000]

Hey man, first off would like to say thanks for the guide, this helped me get through difficulty IV of Swarm so I can now start taking on Swarm V. I was just wondering, do you know the name/specific version of the song used around 3:03, it sounds like a cover of Take the Journey but I haven't been able to find it. Just wondering since it sounds so good.

Honkai: Avengers End Game

[@goldenlion00]

can confirm. Remembrance is the path I also use the most and Im glad it works well in the new content as well. Is it afkable?

[@zmm1337]

It's a very cheap and cheesey build! Anyone with any character can do it. But as for AFK factor, you can afk most trash patrol mobs and some elite, but for the last boss, it's hard to do it as the boss does a lot of damage if the freezes aren't layered correctly

[@adimnur10]

I think no... The boss can easily one shot your character, so you need to be carefull.

[@zmm1337]

@@adimnur10 Exactly. The bosses do so much damage now, that it's very risky to auto diff 4 or 5. Diff 3 is okay to auto to farm the commune trail

[@marclenraymagdaraog691]

remembrance is most broken with Gepard.. specially E1. cuz you can reach over 500% effect hit rate for freeze... even if the enemy has insane resistance they still get freezed.

[@peak407]

​@@marclenraymagdaraog691well u cant freeze all enemies the they will just keep separating untill u kill all of them at once

world 3 is hell for me even with maxed out sw and seele

[@zmm1337]

The content is very hard! I tried destruction and it wasn't fun to brute force w/ dps since the enemies are very powerful. So I went with a cheese strat like Remembrance which is the most broken one imo.

[@LocalVani]

@@zmm1337 I did natasha blade kafka and march and I had seen progress but it still isnt enough especially kafka as there are no DoT inflicter other than her might as well try seele next or silverwolf

@@LocalVani Are you having issues w/ dying or dps? If dying, try picking up some defensive blessings + use def/hp main stat relics. remembrance benenfits tanky build since it doesn't require dps stats to deal damage. Good luck!

@@LocalVani you're running path of remembrance right? Try to hunt down the 2 important blessings i mentioned at 12:54 otherwise the remembrance path will deal no damage at all. If you can get those 2, it will become a lot easier

My first thought is THAT 2 blessings lol. But I haven't thought about using full team to exploit dissociation.. Herta S tier soon.

[@zmm1337]

Ya those 2 blessings are just too good for big damage screenshots. Herta works so well with this strat I love her xD

Difficulty 4 is such a spike. I don't even want to imagine how hard difficulty 5 is.

I alt+f4 few times against gepard, cause his AoE atk deal 3.2K dmg or more sometimes it killed one or 2 my team if i cant cc him.

Everything is out to end the run, but ya the beautiful thing about this gamemode is there's many ways to cheese it like I did here! Good luck!

[@potato1499]

While your strat is really good for beating it early on. I'm assuming the game mode will be less oneshotty for people who want to do their own stuff once progressed further and unlocking more of the passives right? Love your videos btw thanks for showcasing this. Also I think I read a comment from you on another video mentioning that you might make a video regarding building characters with artifacts (namely the ones where you get like 1 set for the bonus then 2 random other artifacts for substats). Are you still planning on making a guide about that? Thanks again for the videos :)

[@zmm1337]

Hey thanks for commenting! And you are correct, this barely scratches the surface (in terms of achievement hunting) as there's a progression/achievement ladder system that i mentioned at 9:50 which will most likely require the player to do things like "complete Diff 5 using path of nihility under x,y,z condition" etc. in order to unlock that achievement node. This is just a good early game strat to get the rewards fast and complete Diff 5. And yeah the relic guide will still come, I haven't had the time to edit it yet, but most likely this weekend!

[@potato1499]

Congratz!! And Ya, it's one of the hardest content. And simulated universe is very RNG. A run could easily be killed by so many things like bad luck w/ blessings. Occurrence nodes making you fight 2 OP elites, etc.
