One thing that makes story fights easier is taking buff food for defense and attack, charging up all the ultimates before the fight and using techniques

I’m loving the series so much, but when I saw Luochas banner I started to die of laughter

[@ChaosFlute]

Pray to XIpe I guess? Those TIng Yun jokes cracked me up.

For anyone trying this (or any other path restricted run), Save your shields and Herta coins until you are TBL 20. There are two sets of 4* relics to be bought from the two stores available at this point in the game. Even if they aren't ideal sets for your characters it is still a large upgrade in total stats. This early in the game the difference between 2* and 4* relics is rather large. Also remember that defensive stats (HP, Def, Effect Res) have value (especially if you are restricted from having shields or healers).

This one enemy was so difficult, I struggled so much fighting him in my preservation only account as I only had March. Its main issue is the fire DOT, you just take so much damage from that. I believe you can get some help about that in the food but I'm not sure.
Outside of the food buffs, it'll be difficult to manage because you don't have access to relics yet. I'd try to buy the ones available in the different planets' shops (like the boxing set in the underground shop) and then build just one DPS who'll receive all your buffs. Because you don't have Yukong, Asta is your best bet as she naturally deals very respectable damage and attacks multiple targets (you'll want to build Yukong that way too when you get her, she's an easy sub-dps). During the fights you tend to buff both Bronya and Asta, you want to focus on just Asta to maximize her damage. She can be squishy, the enemy will probably prioritize attacking Tingyun anyway.
If you can do it with the few relics you have, try and make Asta just a bit faster than Bronya. That way you can do : Asta basic, Bronya E, Asta E without using up all your skill points. Tingyun isn't too SP hungry thankfully but both Asta and Bronya want to use their skill every turn so I'm sure you've encountered SP issues.
I don't remember what's your light cone situation, is there anything you can do here? "Meshing cogs" is probably great for Asta (well, for the other girls too) if you don't have "memories of the past", as it gives her more energy when she attacks which she always does. A "dance dance dance" LC would also probably help you a lot (preferably for Tingyun I'd say but I don't know). As for Bronya I'm not sure, I don't think you have yet access to MOC so you can't get "past and future" right?
Also this may sound obvious but, because you don't really have relics, don't focus on the set effects, you want the stats. It's nice to get the effects yes, but not as important as getting the right stats. And even then, I'd argue you mostly care about the main stats for now and the substats are just a bonus on the body and boots.
I feel like once you beat this, Svarog won't be as hard because he doesn't inflict those fire stacks but I could be wrong. Regardless, I hope this helps a bit and that you get a Yukong soon.

i reaaly love this content ❤

[@gcdubscal8520]

Just stumbled upon this series and your channel and I am eager to see more, unfortunately this is the nature of the beast when it comes to using support characters in a game where builds are a lot more rigid, especially early game. Unlike Genshin which you can dodge attacks and fights can become a war of attrition, in HSR any damage you take is permanent without a healer or shielder. So really the best you can do in the early game is just... grind.
Best I could say outside of that would be using Bronya to clear the highest stacks, I know it wastes the damage buff but honestly it's the best option you have seeing as any damage (even the chip damage from the burn) is irreversible until there is a Harmony character who has the ability to heal, which is unfortuantely unlikely given that healers are abundance.

Love Harmony Only ❤

It might be a late to give tips, but I wish you showed your lightcones (and their levels). Especially considering the boss fight defeat screen kept saying "light cones level too low"

[@arukorubasuke]

Dont worry, we get a physical and ice unit soon

[@jamndude3559]

I know there is an item you can create through synthesis that increases fire resistance, but I don't know when you can first get the recipe. There's certainly something that increases lightning damage that you can get in Belobog, but I think you have to warp to the overworld and get it from a vending machine. So consumables might help.

[@brennomelo2177]

A little spoiler leak... If u dont know, in the next world, penacony, traveller Will be Harmony.

[@ventiiiii241]

I’m still waiting for the hunt traveller 😢

[@jadecanary-.]

So in 1.5 or something there will be a new 5 star harmony ice so maybe that will help you but it will be a while until her banner
As tips there really isnt that much you can do while your at such a low level.. other then trying to use food buff or getting yukong there isnt anything

[@imFrostzy]

me, a veteran harmony only, watching this knowing damn well this is the only battle in which i cheated, using natasha:😐
