Typically, these levels will be cleared with a carefully planned party, but somehow Clara can throw all of this out of wack and do the whole thing herself. Some worlds are much more demanding for her to solo, but we have succeeded with Worlds Three, Four, and Five, clearing several difficulties. This strategy revolves around picking the path of Abundance in the Simulated Universe.
Clara’s Solo Build For Simulated Universe
This strategy revolves aroundClara’s powerful counterattackswhen she is hit by an enemy, and you’re able to start solo-clearing some Simulated Universe levels as soon as you have herat level 60.
When choosing a level to clear, you want to pick thePath of Abundance as your main blessing for the Path Resonance.
There is oneBlessing of Elationthat is absolutely critical to the success of every solo Clara run:the Doctor of Love.
As aone-star rarityblessing, you have a chance for it to appear as the first blessing you choose, so feel free to quit out until you get it immediately.
This blessingrestores HP after a character uses a follow-up attack. Due to Clara’s kit, every time she is hit she will counter with a blast from Svarog.
This counter, and her Ultimate, counts as afollow-up attack.So every time Clara hits with this Blessing,she will heal.
As you progress through the levels, you should always prioritise Abundance Blessings until you get to thefirst and/or second Path Resonance ability.
In terms of which to prioritise, you should go forResonance Formation: Anatta firstand Resonance Formation: Anicca second.
Always pick Anatta first,since this puts the Path of Resonance ability in the turn order, effectively giving you unlimited healing.
To see the best results, you will want to spend a lot of time investing in Clara. You shouldlevel her Traces, but more importantly, her Relicsshould be levelled to at least level 10.
Best Light Cone
While it is not necessary for success, having Clara’s personal five-star Light Cone,Something Irreplaceable, will be the absolute best option for Clara.
If you have this Light Cone, we recommend giving it toClara and levelling it up as much as you may.
It has a bonus that increases her ATK, while also healing a small amount when she takes damage or defeats an enemy, making it especiallyuseful for Clara’s counterattacks.
With that in mind, the best thing about this Light Cone is that itrestores HP and boosts Clara’s attack.
To this end, you’re able to substitute this Light Cone with any other Destruction cone thatpassively increases attack,such as The Moles Welcome You, or Collapsing Sky.
Best Relics
As with Clara’s usual build outside of soloing the Simulated Universe, you want to give her thefour-piece Champion of Streetwise Boxing setand thetwo-piece Space Sealing Station.
Link Rope
ATK%
Generally speaking, you want Clara todish out as much damage as possible. Having these relics befive-star rarity is preferable, but not necessary.
As mentioned, you will want to level theseRelics to level 10 at the least.Pushing them to 15 will help considerably.
Traces
Thankfully, building Clara for Simulated Universe is the same as her normal setup when it comes to her Traces. You want to completely prioritise her Ultimate and her Talent.
These two Traces pertain specifically to her and Svarog’s counterattacks, increasing how much damage they deal considerably.
Getting these two to level fiveat least is what you want, but levelling them anyhigher to six or sevencertainly won’t hurt you.
Blessings To Take
When you get into Simulated Universe, regardless of which World and Difficulty you’re doing, you want to fully prioritise getting the Doctor of Love Elation Blessing as and when it comes up.
Other than theDoctor of Love, your main focus should be any Abundance Blessings you find. The idea is to get three for the Path Resonance and then theResonance Formation: Anatta.
Elation Blessings thatincrease follow-up attack damageare incredibly useful and should also be prioritised.
Specifically, use these Blessings as a rough guideline for which ones to look for:
Back to the Lighthouse
Destruction
One
There aresome bosses Clara simply cannot beat alone, so this can be down to RNG. There might be times when you aren’t doing enough damage to a boss, and the fight will drag on for a really long time.
You’ll know this happens because the boss willgain an attack boost every turn, significantly increasing their damage.
If this happens, you might struggle to get through the whole world and you need to focus more on damage.
General Strategy
Worlds three and four havefive difficulties,while Worlds five and six havefour. This build for solo Clara has been tested by us on the following Simulated Universe levels:
One, two, and three
One and two.
World Five
The good news is you don’t have to worry a whole lot about changing tactics between each Simulated Universe you try and solo.
Generally speaking, thestrategy will be the same every time, but as you come to learn it more you might see areas you could improve in.
Giving Clara somemore damage-focused Blessings will be wholly beneficial,but these should only be picked if you can’t find an Abundance in any blessing choice.
The healing power of Clara’s Light Cone, the Abundance Path Resonance, and the Doctor of Love blessingwill make Clara borderline unkillable.
If you haveall the Path Resonance abilitiesyou want, you may then focus on dealing more damage with other blessings.
Whack on auto-battle and watch as wave after wave of enemies and bosses throw themselves against the immovable, invincible titans that are Clara and Svarog.
