Bronya, the successor to Cocolia, holds the title of Supreme Guardian of Belobog. However, after a dispute between the Trailblazers and the Silvermane Soldiers, players are transported to the Underworld alongside the Overworld Princess by Sampo. It is here that Bronya uncovers the truth behind the eternal snow in her homeland, leading her to switch sides. To confront Bronya in Honkai: Star Rail, players must first face her in a quest and then battle alongside her mother Cocolia in the Simulated Universe. For tips on how to defeat Bronya, continue reading.
How To Beat Bronya In Honkai: Star Rail
There are multiple iterations of Bronya featured in Honkai: Star Rail. Players can encounter one during a quest where they must evade the Silvermane Guards. Additionally, two versions of Bronya can be unlocked within the first 15 levels of the Forgotten Hall. Finally, the last version of Bronya serves as a support character during the Cocolia boss fight in the Simulated Universe.
How To Beat Quest Bronya
Quest Bronya differs slightly from Forgotten Hall and Simulated Universe Bronya, as her Toughness is reduced to 150 from 210. However, she still possesses all the other attributes, including vulnerabilities to Physical, Fire, and Imaginary attacks. Additionally, she can cleanse an ally, grant them an instant turn, and summon Silvermane Soldier and Silvermane Gunner.
Swiftly defeating the Soldier and Gunner summoned by the Guardian can prove to be a game-changer in combat, as it removes her weakness until these minions are defeated.
Enemy | Weakness | Toughness |
|---|---|---|
Bronya | Physical, Fire, Imaginary | 150 |
Silvermane Soldier | Wind, Quantum | 60 |
Silvermane Gunner | Physical, Ice | 60 |
When starting the game, players may have a limited selection of characters to use against Bronya, but there are still f2P units that can defeat her. To take down Bronya during the main quest, players can consider using physical units such as Physical Trailblazer, Sushang, Natasha, Clara Wind, or a quantum character. For the Silvermane Soldier, Dan Heng, Seele, or Silver Wolf can be effective choices.
Therefore, people can make a team comp like:
Physical Trailblazer + Dan Heng + March 7h + Asta Physical Trailblazer + Seele + Natasha + Asta
How To Beat Forgotten Hall Bronya
Asta's unique ability to hit randomly 5 times makes her an exceptional unit for breaking enemy Toughness, especially when there's only one enemy on the field. In the case of quest Bronya, whose Toughness value is lower than the other Bronya, Asta becomes an even more valuable asset in this part of the story.
Forgotten Hall Bronya has a 210 Toughness value, but the rest of her kit are pretty much the same, so players can use the previous strategy to beat her here.
How To Beat Simulated Universe Bronya
Enemy | Weakness | Toughness |
|---|---|---|
Bronya | Physical, Fire, Imaginary | 150 |
Cocolia | Fire, Lightning, Quantum | 360 |
Ice Edge 1 | Fire, Quantum | 90 |
Ice Edge 2 | Fire, Lightning | 90 |
In level 6 of the Simulated Universe, players will encounter Cocolia as the main final boss. However, during the battle, Bronya appears to support the player when Cocolia's second HP bar is reached. This time, Simulated Universe Bronya does not summon Silvermane, which leaves her vulnerable and unable to protect herself during the fight.
She remains a formidable support character despite this setback, thanks to her capacity to cleanse and grant an additional turn to Cocolia. This allows the Supreme Guardian to execute her Punishment of Endless Winter attack without needing to charge it first. Additionally, both Cocolia and Bronya possess significant Control RES in this stage. Bronya has a 50% RES to control effects, while Cocolia boasts a 100% RES to Frozen and Imprisonment. As a result, controlling these two characters becomes a challenge for players, compelling them to explore alternative strategies.
A well-rounded team is crucial to success in Simulated Universe World 6, where players must confront both Cocolia and Bronya. While it is possible to defeat Cocolia without taking down Bronya, it is not advisable as the Supreme Guardian becomes even more formidable in her final phase. To tackle both adversaries effectively, players should consider incorporating the following Elements into their lineup: Fire support to weaken all enemies, Lightning or Quantum DPS to counter Cocolia's Ice Edge, and single-target Physical to gradually chip away at Bronya's HP and Toughness.
Here are some sample team comps players can try to beat Simulated Universe Bronya:
Jing Yuan + Seele + Natasha + Fire Trailblazer Sushang + Seele + Asta + Natasha Serval + Asta + Bailu + Clara
Honkai: Star Rail is now available on Android, iOS, and PC. A PlayStation version is in development.
