Honkai: Star Rail achievement guide – Cocolia

Honkai: Star Rail Save the Princess Achievement

Looking to unlock the Honkai: Star Rail Save the Princess achievement? It can be a challenging task, requiring you to defeat Cocolia without defeating Bronya. However, the RPG game rewards diligence and the right build with a substantial amount of Stellar Jade.

Among the numerous achievements in Honkai: Star Rail, the Save the Princess achievement is quite vague. It simply states 'Defeat Cocolia without defeating Bronya.' However, it is tied to one of the most difficult story bosses in Honkai: Star Rail, which means you may have to face the entire fight multiple times to meet the requirements. The reward for this achievement is the final piece of Stellar Jade needed for the Warp Roll. If you've been enjoying the free PC games available, this achievement is worth pursuing.

How to Unlock the Honkai: Star Rail Save the Princess Achievement

In the Cocolia (Complete) fight in the Simulated Universe, Bronya will be summoned to assist Cocolia from Phase 2 onward. However, Bronya constantly uses her Combat Redeployment Skill to aid Cocolia and mitigate damage.

To unlock this achievement, follow these steps:

1. Keep Bronya alive during the fight with Cocolia.
2. You don't need to defeat Bronya; just ensure she stays alive.
3. If you manage to keep Bronya alive, you can potentially unlock the achievement and earn the last bit of Stellar Jade for the Warp Roll.

It's important to note that this achievement can only be unlocked during the 13th encounter of Cocolia in the Simulated Universe, World 6. Other versions of Cocolia, such as those in the Main Story Quest and Echo of War, have different mechanics. Additionally, aim to complete this achievement before attempting the AoY Simulated Universe achievement for reaching Phase 10, as the fight leading up to Cocolia on the final Simulated Universe stage has a similar mechanic.

If you're planning to tackle this difficult achievement, make sure you are prepared for the fight ahead. Progress through the 12 stages preceding Cocolia's fight and assemble your best Honkai: Star Rail characters, including Trailblazer, March 7th, Gepard, Clara, Tingyun, Asta, Bronya, Bailu, Natasha, Hook, Himeko, Arlan, Serval, and Jing Yuan. Additionally, equip your characters with the best Honkai: Star Rail builds to give yourself a fighting chance. Familiarize yourself with Cocolia's weaknesses, as her fight becomes considerably more difficult when Bronya is involved.
