Stage 4 Phase 1
Weakness
Physica & Ice
With the revised Pure Fiction mode featuring more enemies and diverse weakness types, it's crucial to prioritize AoE characters with matching weakness attributes or those that can ignore weaknesses to reduce toughness.
Recommended Attribute Priority:
Physical = Ice > Fire > Others
The second wave of Xianzhou Luofu Disciples has 40% Wind RES, while other enemies have standard resistance.
[Enemy Strategy Tips]
①Avoid Triple Support + One DPS (3-support-1) setups.
- Never underestimate Silvermane Guards on the enemy side. They often carry AoE high-damage summons, and their damage is noticeable.
- If possible, include a sustain unit to lower the risk of accidental defeats.
②Reserve the Honor Buff for your main DPS to finish enemies.
- The Honor Buff is marked by a summon with a rose icon in the middle.When it takes fatal damage, it grants the killer a 20% damage boost (or 40% if the Honor Buff was in an empowered state).Recommended Teams

Stage 4 Phase 2
Weakness
Imaginary&Quantum
Recommended Attribute Priority:
Quantum = Imaginary > Others
[Enemy Strategy Tips]
①Place energy-reliant characters in slots 2 or 3.
- Enemies frequently use AoE and sweep attacks, so placing key characters in the middle increases their chances of being hit and thus recovering energy faster.
②Focus on defeating Larval Ticktari.
- When defeated, they trigger a deathrattle effect, applying 10% Vulnerability to all enemies.
- Overall, this half is less damage-intensive than the first half, so prioritize assigning crucial support units to the first-half team instead.

Conclusion
The latest update of Honkai: Star Rail's "3.3 Simulated Universe · Narrative Analysis" brings a slight increase in difficulty: a 22% rise compared to version 3.0 (with similar buffs and the same boss, Aventurine), and a 16% rise compared to version 3.2 (despite lacking the 100% action advance buff). Overall, the difficulty of achieving full stars remains low. However, the challenge of scoring full points without using specialized buffs has increased. That said, if you're not aiming for the latter, there's no need to worry.
