Best Path for World 2

The Path of the Remembrance

Star Rail - Path Resonance The Remembrance

The recommended Path for World 2 is The Remembrance. Control the battlefield and delay enemy turns through Freeze.

Using the Path Resonance: Remembrance is especially useful as a lot of the bosses here are weak to Ice.

Supplement with Preservation Blessings

Preservation Blessings are also viable to protect yourself from incoming DMG, especially if your characters are still at a low level.

List of All Paths

Best Characters for World 2

Character Merits
Acheron Acheron Acheron's main damage source is her Ultimate and you have to stack her Talent to use it. It can be done by applying debuffs to enemies. So, you have to surround her with Nihility characters and others who have a debuff in their kit.
Kafka Kafka Since most enemies are weak to Lightning, Kafka does well in World 2. She can easily break multiple Lightning Weaknesses using her Ultimate and deal damage through DoT.
Jing Yuan Jing Yuan With multiple enemies having Lightning Weakness, Jing Yuan works great in World 2. He deals AoE damage and can break multiple Lightning Weaknesses.
Serval Serval Lightning Weakness is common in World 2, especially during the boss fight. Serval can easily break multiple Lightning Weaknesses using her Skill and Ultimate.
Bailu Bailu Bailu can easily heal her party, and she can break Lightning Weakness when not healing.
Jingliu Jingliu Since most enemies are weak to Ice, Jingliu works well in World 2. She deals AoE damage and can easily deal more damage through Remembrance Blessings.
Ruan Mei Ruan Mei Being a Harmony character of the Ice element, Ruan Mei can easily support her party with offensive buffs and allow DPS characters to break Toughness more easily.
Yanqing Yanqing Since most enemies are weak to Ice, Yanqing can lock them down with Frozen status and deal even more DMG.
Pela Pela Pela can decrease the DEF of multiple enemies. Her Ultimate also deals AoE Ice DMG, making it easy to break enemies that are weak to Ice.
Guinaifen Guinaifen Guinaifen is a solid sub-DPS for any team whose main DPS is a Nihility character. Guinaifen can easily apply Burn to multiple enemies and trigger the DoT instantly with her Ultimate.
Gallagher Gallagher Gallagher is a healer who allows his allies to recover some HP as long as they attack an enemy affected with Besotted. He can also inflict an ATK reduction debuff using his Enhanced Basic ATK.

Best Teams for World 2

Free To Play Team

Main DPS Sub-DPS Support Healer
Serval Serval Herta Herta Asta Asta Natasha Natasha
Paths & Blessings Path: The Remembrance
Blessings: Remembrance, Preservation, Elation

Serval and Herta will serve as both DMG dealers and can break most enemy weaknesses. Asta can cover boss enemies that are weak to Fire, while Natasha can keep the party alive through healing.

Optimal Teams

Jingliu Team

Main DPS Support Support Healer
Jingliu Jingliu Ruan Mei Ruan Mei Tingyun Tingyun Huohuo Huohuo
Paths & Blessings Path: The Remembrance
Blessings: Remembrance, Hunt, Destruction

In this team, Jingliu serves as the main DPS. She can deal amazing AoE damage and easily inflict Weakness Break thanks to Ruan Mei's buffs. Tingyun can boost Jingliu's DMG even further and restore her Energy. This allows Jingliu to easily get her Ult up.

If the Energy regen from Tingyun is not enough, having Huohuo as your healer would help. Having a healer is necessary since Jingliu siphons HP from her allies. If you don't have Huohuo, you can also use other healers such as Luocha or Natasha.

Acheron Hyper Carry Team

Main DPS Sub-DPS Healer Healer
Acheron Acheron Guinaifen Guinaifen Pela Pela Gallagher Gallagher
Paths & Blessings Path: The Nihility
Blessings: Nihility, Hunt, Abundance

When Acheron is your DPS, you want to pair her with at least one Nihility character for her Bonus Ability to trigger. So, Pela is a great choice for this team since most enemies are weak to Ice.

The remaining members of the team should have an ability that can inflict a debuff for her Talent to stack, which is vital for her Ultimate. With this, Guinaifen can be your Sub-DPS for her Burn DoT and Firekiss.

Gallagher will be the healer since his Enhanced Basic ATK has an ATK reduction debuff. He can also heal the team as long as an ally attacks a Besotted enemy!

Kafka DoT

Main DPS Sub-DPS Support Healer
Kafka Kafka Guinaifen Guinaifen Pela Pela Bailu Bailu
Paths & Blessings Path: The Nihility
Blessings: Nihility, Remembrance, Abundance

Kafka will be your main DPS, dealing damage through the activation of DoTs using her Skill. Guinaifen can inflict multiple enemies with Burn and is also able to activate them like Kafka. Pela acts as the debuffer, and can reduce multiple enemies DEF with her Ultimate.

For the healer, Bailu will do just fine since most enemies have Lightning Weakness. If you don't have Bailu, you can also use other healers such as Luocha or Natasha.

How to Beat Automatons - World 2 Boss

Freeze with Remembrance

Star Rail - Simulated Universe World 2 - Use the Path of Remembrance

Before the boss fight, you should have stacked up a lot of Remembrance Blessings to Freeze the bosses frequently. This will allow you to delay the Automatons' attacks and deal more DMG before they attack.

Use AoE Lightning or Ice Attacks

Star Rail - Simulated Universe World 2 - Use AoE Ice or Lightning Attacks

Both Automatons are weak to Lightning and Ice DMG. Use AoE Skills from characters like Serval, Pela, or March 7th to break both enemy weaknesses as quickly as possible!

Prioritize the Automaton Spiders

Star Rail - Simulated Universe World 2 - Take Out the Automaton Spiders

From time to time, Automaton Spiders will show up and eventually explode to deal a massive amount of Fire DMG to your characters.

Prioritize taking them out before the Automaton Grizzly taunts your party. You can use the Path Resonance: The Remembrance to quickly destroy the Automaton Spiders and deal Fire DMG to the Automatons instead.
