The Simulated Universe is a cosmic combat challenge that drops players into a semi-randomized labyrinth. You read that right — the layout, enemies, and rewards differ each time, making it an authentic rogue-like experience. The challenge consists of six main levels, or Worlds, with each World having multiple floors to tackle, and multiple blessings in Honkai Star Rail boost your characters. The difficulty spikes as you clear each World, starting from the relatively easy World one, which is doable for level 16 characters.

The Best Blessings in Honkai Star Rail Simulated Universe

Your best bet is to go with the Preservation Path. Preservation blessings are shield-based and can make your team extremely powerful if you stick by them. Don’t think it’s all about defense, as these cards can also boost your CRIT and overall DMG. You need a shield for most of them to work, so bringing a Shielding character along is always a good idea.

Here are a couple of examples of the best Preservation Path blessings in Honkai Star Rail:

Rotation: Removes debuffs when a character receives a shield.
Firmness: Shielded characters receive reduced DMG.
Quadrangular Pyramid: Increases the maximum DMG absorbed by shields.
Assemble: The more blessings of Preservation you have, the higher the character’s defense becomes.
Burst: Shielded characters have increased CRIT damage.
Macrosegregation: Characters get a special stackable shield when they jump into battle.
Metastatic field: After an attack hits a character, it deals Quake DMG.
