Honkai: Star Rail’s latest The Unreachable Side went live on May 12. As the first Memory of Chaos stage returning after the anniversary, its mechanics are straightforward and the overall difficulty is low, making it a great window for resource farming. This guide will analyze three key aspects: the Memory Turbulence mechanic, how to handle the main enemies, and team recommendations for both halves of the stage.
▍Mechanics Breakdown
Memory Turbulence Buff: Enhances Skill cycling and adds true damage via weakness application.
Buff 1: Skill Level +3; SP Skill Level +2 – significantly strengthens skill cycling main DPS such as Castorice, Herta , Mydeimos.
Buff 2: After each use of Skill or SP Skill, a new Weakness is applied to the enemy to trigger true damage.
▍Boss Mechanics
First‐Half Boss: “Dead Dragon’s Husk”
Core Mechanic:
Begins with 90% damage reduction; normal attacks cannot penetrate.
You must trigger burn damage or have allied units lose HP to charge the Near‐Death Dream Bubble , which removes the boss’s damage reduction.
Hitting the boss applies the Sinking into Eternal Slumber debuff , which cuts damage – bring a healer to restore your team above 50% HP and clear it.
Strategy:
Use self-damage or burn-mechanic DPS like Bronya or Castorice’s summon.
Summoned units (e.g. Castorice’s “Dead Dragon”) are immune to debuffs and can sustain damage, greatly improving your margin for error.
Second‐Half: “Burst Research Team”
Five enemies share one HP pool. AoE attacks can quickly push them into Class Break(smiley face state), during which Ultimates can interrupt and secure chains of kills.
Key Points:
AoE characters can drive the phase forward rapidly.
High Ultimate frequency units maintain control across rounds.
Recommended: Wide coverage AoE DPS such as Herta or Luocha for efficient clears.
▍Full-Star Clear Team Builds
First Half
Castorice Summon Team
- Composition: Castorice + The Remembrance + Tingyun / Trailblazer + Ruan Mei / Gallagher / Luocha
- Strengths: Summons bypass damage reduction; Memory Support + Tingyun’s high cycle triggers Memory Turbulence repeatedly; Gallagher provides stable healing.
Bronya Burn Team
- Composition: Bronya + Serval + Tingyun + Gallagher
- Strengths: Bronya’s self damage quickly removes damage reduction; slightly less AoE than the summon team.
Second Half
Herta Rush Team
- Composition: Herta + Anaxa / Jade + Tingyun / The Remembrance + Gallagher
- Strengths: Herta’s buffed Skill delivers massive AoE true damage; Nacht’s delayed Ultimate amplifies burst.
Luocha Break Team
- Composition: Luocha + Ruan Mei + Fugue + Lingsha / Gallagher
- Strengths: New Weakness mechanism fills Luocha’s previous gap; strong Break capability sustains control.
▍Recharge for More Fun!
Overall, this Memory of Chaos offers a low-entry, high reward challenge. Anniversary units like Castorice and Herta naturally excel here, while mid tier characters such as Tingyun, Memory Support, and Gallagher can contribute steadily thanks to high skill cycles.
