#[ARCHIVED] Siege Advice (Starting Season of March 2023)
1 messages · Page 3 of 1
(in the worst case which is what you wanna protect against)
since tesa is the main dd here -- i worry no vio chance makes that stun stall you out a whole cycle of getting pummeled by the triple dd which is v scary
I've thought about it, I want to test it and see how it holds up
Probably would not typically do but I am curious how it pans out
testing always good 
I need to reread our discussion on clara theo savannah
I know we've discussed it before
i think there is the case where you revenge the sav or theo and then pop them without their protection
but that can happen with a s2 -> vio s1 anyways
and i usually kill clara first here anyways
tbf i havent hit this defense that seriously a whole lot
I think you'd also probably do it with jeanne helena if you were to leo
This is a much weaker variant for sure
i wont lie i slam feng into this repeatedly
people tell me its not safe but honestly leo like neuters theo and sav even if they're on 'leo trap' builds
this variant sucks imo
I don't have that many premium units so sticking both into the same team is something I would typically avoid doing
i've also run tesa lulu leo as well with just mega -wind on lulu
I do have camilla
idk if anyone runs leo traps in reg season
I reruned her this FRR because bruiser build was basically impossible for me to use
i hit oci with fy leo aaliyah and sav not only defbroke my feng
this theo also started beating the shit out of him
unfortunately 3 procs was not enough to kill my feng
so i still won
i think leo does less than people think into a good theo
his atk scaling is still p solid
like my 286 theo can still clap a feng with a proc or two because its +wind
true but if you run someone with innate dmg reduction or just insane bases and abuse the leo low spd requirement
u can make shit pretty tanky
and i run -water on everyone versus theo
lol
including fy
From using camilla on bruiser build honestly I get it but I just don't have the runes unless I full swap sets from multiple different monsters
yeah ofc
if the clara hits me for 10k then i got fucking brain gapped
you dont reallly 2v3 you toss in some other random 3rd here
Felt very unusable when I was running her
and then its not as high rune req
I'm just talking in general
i just run a cr 239 camilla in past
Everyone is saying camilla is a top siege unit
what did u try?
And I get it
are your flags and towers maxed
bruisers feel much weaker until you have all that
damn already it took me years to do that shit
I do try hard
well hmm
nup was buying scrolls
this is true
I was running 205 cr
i bought hella wind scrolls
still no seara
i think u want 239 on cami no?
her sustain is tied to moving
I can't make 239 CR with more than like 160k ehp
I run cd clara in that def at 6tick
yeah but one person hits you
wtf is 6tick
then everyone after is free
Which doesn't work for obvious reasons
speak in normal numbers
239

nah its much simpler than that
one hit i had clara strip stun
sav defbreak
theo proceeded to s2 s1 s1 s1 me
and im like ok i lived
Well it doesnt matter anyway
then clara did 300 damage and i died
did u ever see the clara i ran in finals
You're gonna runegap me anyway
interserver siege coming near you
sus
also @inland sedge how do we feel about this build (+200 def from arts)
for leo fy
i think its actually +1800 def with s6 maxed
so +28k +2k for leo fy into clara teams
since clara is high acc anyways i decided what if i just run all stats no resist
is the 10k health jump worth the 100 resist loss
(cause my current is +19.5k +2k defense)
Don't you still want res for theomars?
bro hold on
for leo trap i would go res prolly
ive had 3 theos
err leo build

ok thats furyn rune gap
i dont think i could make that if i tried and consolidated all my best runes
nice set
furyn rune gap
the narsha little squishy
Ye res is a lie too xD
Now i dont wanna Show mine

when i get to tourney i just plan to get leo'd from now on

this is one of those crazy person builds
like the people running hp/hp/hp -fire rakan with seara orion rakan in g1
yea but realistically im beating anyone who isnt +50 speed with leo fy i think
ok people who do that are bozos and why im making a +130 speed mega fat rage kahli
if i ever see seara orion rakan again
but thats a diff story
-> continued: i feel like since im beating anyone whos not building for leo fy anyways i feel like if i just mega tank stat up i have a better chance versus crazy people builds like these
if i just go mega stats
yeah i forget what 3rd you want but windy camilla i think is just nice because it doestn have the trap risk but again in reg season i do not respect leo traps
juno gets fucked by theo
but i see it

Vs Clara theo sav?
was thinking of +1 for windy camilla
Am I going to have enough damage without bruiser Camilla?
do you have some you can test against internally?
tractor windy is decent chunk of dmg and the def has 0 sustain
I asked on discord
if you pull us today ill put it up for live testing 
Here is the requested monster.

what guild u in nowadays
i rejoined skyfall this week
oh nice
i was in a fake farming guild since start of season that was going between g2 and g3
don't think we're pulling either
we had a questionable last siege
yeah we're playing in super noob siege

83 rank

I'd fight apoc over SF any day
rip
yay we getting 1v2'd boys
What about both @ once
I'd pilot Logan's and another acc and go 0-30 actually!
LMAO
Which are the most viable tanks for each elemental (if possible obtainable)? Mostly concerned about a possible obtainable light tank for martina defs
Just dont Light Tank Martina
Go Tractor Lulu Windy and pray
If you wanna risk it Shamann/Light Joker(HoH) are some options
if u go tlw and the enemy has high eff twins u can just lose
light tanking it is okay with shamann
this isn't your post so I don't wanna answer your question. Therion is kinda strict on it
but for dark, chacha and diaz for fire helena kunite. for wind, windy, malite, Water camilla,
wait im confused, aaaa so this isn't a general post?
I deleted mine, thinking it was
ignore my question then, I'll re-open a thread later today about it, and thanks for going through the trouble Logan, Nuparu, and Fayris ^^
Yeah it's Therion's and they usually ask people to open their own posts.
No worries though
i'm sure you've seen #1048719420870107227 ... but there's literally a chart that answer this question
the bruiser one, I saw it, but wasn't sure if some could last long enough vs martina defs >-<
To be fair again Mst has so many angles to lose to, only light tanking I know off is Double Water and containing a DD a Damage Triana can often just snipe you quickly too with a proc or two soloing from my experience
@dull ruin We had a discussion on MST here before. Ryan icaru verde seems to be agreed to be the best counter
Are there builds for that team somewhere?
@fallow sail
@tacit dome how was siege or is it still going on?
Was vs complete randos
Was just G2, nothing fancy, got home from work exhausted and did a quick 10-0 lol
ah ok, not worth talking about then ig
the siege before this one
was imperialkingz and something right
@tacit dome hope the ping is ok - what would you use against Eshir, Monte Triana def?
If I want to share my box and ask for recommendations on seige team builds should I do it here or make a new post in help section?
make a new post
never be afraid of making a new posts
but check out #1048666221064753182 first
yes in #1048681073502068917 , beginner pvp post
Thank you
Yes I checked it
I already built a carnaco vigour traina def
And I was building 2nd recommended ones as well
But I have some seige oriented nat5s and that's why I wanted to ask
We can help best if you make new posts :D
Could I have suggestions for vs clara cichlid vigor? I did malite lulu vigor and it felt very unsafe
i like yeonhwa here. like khmun racuni
there's not a single biggest threat on that def, so having some mega tank isn't that great because you can't make it tank all the threats
yeonhwa is still a great tank but has great support for the team even if she's not directly tanking
dong is similar but i like yeonhwa a lot more than dong
it's vs ocitocina and fury today, so actually meaningful siege
In general or just into this defense
in general
could I have some more suggestions vs seara nora theomars? the guild i am fighting literally is only using this defense and the cichlid one + i've already used xing cami riley + leo feng tetra
pretty tough without leo or other premium stuff
i'm just kind of stuck here because it's that or the cichlid one haha
you could do camilla + fire bruisers like juno racuni khmun lala etc
and if you assume nora is not on swift can cleave it
like tiana or if you have a jamire can do those jamire homie cleaves
i'd rather hit clara vigor cichlid than seara nora theo
even without yeonhwa you can just use any of your standard wind tanks like malite or windy
and then your standard 2 fire bruisers like khmun racuni lala or standard 2 water bruisers like vigor lulu elucia tetra
which you've tried and yea like you said it's not super safe but i think still a decently high wr team
I Julie this
Oci is the type of guild to run triple hp seara also
I’ve done myhang lushen to this too
This def has a ton of angles to hit it from with Info you can cleave it without you can run stuff like Revivers
Nana+Tara+Theo or Perna e.g.
I have this built if you wanna mess around in vc on my account @tacit dome
#6 is fucking stupid, thought dong could work as well but realized quickly that i wasn't manipulating ai of clara
#10 i just didn't have any options left to hit this defense, had to get creative
i love the yeonhwa team though!
yeonhwa is the new malite
i've basically stopped using malite and have just been building dupe yeonhwas
the unfortunate part is that she needs skillups
how is your seara built for #9
Here is the requested monster.

just playing with additional
actually
i should probably ask if this is acceptable @thin oxide
this is the build i was using on yeonhwa
sec
shouldnt seara be hp slot 6 if you are using additionals
or does the bomb dmg have value here
for sure she should be
this needs to be reruned, gen1 wanted me to do clara seara theomars and i couldn't build it properly bruiser style so i went more yolo
although i think here she is tanky enough
i'll point out
Here is your build.

something like this work with that offense?
for that specific defense
there's a very awkward part of the fight where you've killed ethna
and you need to hit manon
it's awkward as heck but basically
you can't really kill molly without landing two bombs
so i think accuracy is actually somewhat important
too fast you should have her on literally +0 spd
she activates without having to move, and you don't want her song to end
like my yeons have +40k
hp
also you can consider not building any res on her
i have a build with max res and a build without and i think in a lot of cases the no res build is better
she is an insane tank with the damage reduction, you want her to take all the hits
and she'll be fine even with def break on her
not to mention if you bring her into dom, sav, lm, etc
you want the atb reduction to land on her as well
what artas do you do for Yeon? -Elem dmg for left and acc+ on right?
vs clara it has to be max res i think, right?
She's immune to cc while playing her song now I'm pretty sure
So can't see why she would
if she gets stunned turn 1
you won't play
i actually just tested
but i also don't feel like it matters
Ah in that case yea I'd still probs just play off rat resurge
i mean if you assume most claras are built with super high accuracy anyway then it doesn't matter
Ok, I don't want to go against the progression and I promise I'm not skipping anything but...
Is it okay that I start venturing into Siege battles while I'm farming runes for making my bj5 team stable and consistent? Or is bj5 really-really mandatory to finish before siege?
finish pve before working on pvp
I think I would not assume this for cichlid here.
I don't know if it's something everyone is able to talk about yet, but do we have any solution for martina manon shaina that isn't the icaru one? Or is that recommended? I think when we spoke before about icaru chilling elucia it was not recommended because of the intense rune requirements
I am unsure about the rune requirements vs this defense in particular
I think every counter to this is high rune intensity lol
Only other reliable ones I've seen are miri Lushen where you can kill in 2 cards on Manon and Martina and the double snipe comp where you bethony the Manon but both of those are 2.25% chance to auto fail
Obviously I can't
Do that haha :D I don't own mirinae anyways
But yeah I'm not sure what other counter there is
rune swap icaru team might be your best bet
the problem is that I can't build the team either
I can't on swift, vio might be doable
Julie lushen
you can rune the icaru comp on swift instead of vio
if you dont run vio it's actually really easy to rune
How come ryan icaru verde is considered a solid counter vs MST but not TQ raoq verde? I fail to understand. Can they not both get screwed by nem shaina?
excellent question
first thing to keep in mind which i think you already understand, is that nem is not all or nothing
it's not like if nem triggers, it automatically means the nem unit gets to cut
nem will give you a certain amount of atb and it may or may not allow you to cut in
so that being said, it's very possible for ryan icaru verde to get screwed by nem shaina, but it is much much harder compared to tq raoq verde
specifically in order for a well-built ryan icaru verde to get cut, you pretty much need a very tight/specific 286 tick squishy shaina
meanwhile, any regular/bruiser tanky vio/nem shaina is likely to cut tq raoq verde but not icaru ryan verde
the main thing that makes icaru ryan verde less susceptible to nem is that the damage on it is mostly backloaded
the initial hit of tq raoq verde does MUCH more than the initial hit of icaru ryan verde. tq does a lot of dmg with his ignore dmg s1, meanwhile ryan does not. majority of dmg from icaru ryan verde comes from ryan's s2 and s3 which follow up later and can be chained and avoids nem
That makes a lot more sense.
other small things -
icaru has a slightly faster speed lead, plus ryan team is much higher dmg output given same runes
I assume this is much less popular
so a lot of people when building the ryan team purposely overtune the comp by a lot
because they don't need to maximize dmg
and then they may not even be cut by nem
That makes a lot more sense.
lastly
even if nem shaina does trigger and manage to cut in
ryan team still has better chance of surviving and getting the win, just due to ryan/icaru being water
and shaina can glance them
This makes a lot more sense. I understand now. Thank you :)
one way to build ryan team is actually to build ryan on will, and tuned directly to a single boost instead of double boost
so if shaina cuts in and stuns verde - ryan still will get to go, and cannot be stunned due to will
remember that the only way to reasonably build shaina to cut in is on a super fast and squishy build
So it would not be violent?
so a ryan that counters that doesn't need all that damage
and will still easily kill stuff despite verde not getting a turn in this case
there are tons of shaina builds these days, and it also varies greatly depending on server
I guess that is how MST has withstood the trial of time
@thin oxide what is the strategy when i'm using triana elucia loren into geldnir ophilia theomars?
Like who do I focus/try to CC?
I don't understand what I'm supposed to do when ophilia has permanent immunity
You can strip her with Loren into Elucia
You have enough safety usually with Triana+occasional Slow debuff from Loren/cc
Could I get some suggestions for vs this defenses? Was being rushed so didn't really end up picking well. I think maybe shushu > riley can work? I'm not sure.
this is pretty scary to bruiser
it's hard to have anything tank this, both in the sense of being able to tank 3v1 but also you can't even control ai to ensure that 1 thing is tanking everything
What I did is I put everything on -dark here and tried to make everything tanky enough
But it was not. I know you can't tiana cleave this either because tian lang
you can still tiana cleave it
if your cp is fast enough
and tuned to 15% boost
that's part of the reason why my cp is so fast
other than that there's jamire homu
and all the various spd buff no boost cleaves
I thought that homunculus would not work
like lcl or just double ignore but with no boost (so kahli and then your 2 def ignore tuned to just spd buff)
why would homunculus not work
Tian lang passive. I thought it would make it only put the attack bar to 50%.
homunculus doesn't boost atb
it sets everyone's atb to 100
oh and you have coco too so can do the coco kahli cleave if you don't have jamire
Yeah. I was thinking about that. I'm just not positive who you would kill here, and I'm not sure my kahli would one shot with 44% hp lead
I'm thinking about fermion passive here and how it plays a role in this
you cannot nuke fermion
he has to be last
yea it would need some good runes
for coco kahli you'd coco the vigor and kahli the tl
for jamire + some single target ignore def it doesn't amtter between tl and vigor, you'd shoot whoever had will if you see it as you'd try to avoid nem
Got it. I will keep that part in mind.
With cheongpung. So I see you have 270. What determines whether tian lang or cheongpung gets a turn? Just whoever has more speed?
correct
both of them will basically have 15% boost
so just whoever is faster between cp and TL
my cp is this speed so that it should outspeed almost all vio TL no lead (aka approximately +200 vio)
with my gal lead
whoever designed TL deserves a raise
one of the coolest monsters/passives in the game
even though it's a bit on the OP side there's an entire world of theorycrafting that goes around countering him
Perhaps when I hit this defense I could rerune cheongpung to be faster if I see it in the future
He does have a really neat passive. Lots of awesome things like that. I love leo too
I messed up the speed tuning with garo going before kahli, but this still felt very very unsafe
lmao not even close
so i would have gone for clara 2nd instead of fuuki
or at least not until he kills himself a bit
my draco also has a shield set which reduces chance of clara stunning stuff
and lastly i know we don't really prioritize tankiness at all on kahli, but max slot 5 + maybe a random hp/def sub here and there and she survives here
attacking clara instead of fuuki first turn could also mess up ai on clara i believe
How so?
clara's ai is perfect when she has full hp in that she will always s3
If she has some damage on it, she might not s3
Right. That makes sense.
When I was initially runing it and kahli was so squishy, I was thinking that it would be very possible for fuuki to s2 + proc and kill kahli and then its hard
I feel like my right side artifacts are absolute garbage, but I'm also apprehensive about farming them because I am unsure right side does much of anything
So like, for example (just random example - not saying i'm going to do this) if I skill up lulu's s2, it gives 10% recovery. Is that the same as 10% recovery from a right side artifact?
It feels very inconsequential a lot of the time and I am just confused
Are they actually worth farming for siege?
I just tested my lulu heal to give you an example
3600 s3 without arti
4300 with 20% arti
Oh right side arts are fucking nuts in siege
I think both left artis are really important to farm especially cause after you put your hands on some good ones you can keep swaping them
left and right*
Acc, recovery, adds and crit/inc effects are all hella valid and help a lot
Especially acc and recovery
But if you run double snipes a solid right side on both can easily be the difference between win and loss
In terms of damage
They're just super useful all around
Having stuff like +acc on arti can free you to have more stats on runes as well
and etc
Hmmm okay. A lot of the artifacts I use are very green I feel.
As you may know I just started power farming artis recently and god all my attacks feel so much safer now
SF and PC will take your comps from good to great
It's honestly insane how they make a huge dif
Well sf to great and PC to outstanding
also Hi nup hope you're feeling better
Hi I'm fine someone else has my acc now
So I can't be bothered instead I'll spend excessive on upgrading my computer setup into insanity status
I know about SF10. I have pretty good left side actually. I just haven't really done PC10.
Actually. Come to think of it. For this, would it not technically be safest to have both DDs on will as well as a shield set for safety against draco?

Will furyn sponsor me?
Furyn eSports
Let’s start a sw unofficial discord guild and get these whales to sponsor us all

good idea, we'll call it landrise
sugar whales
The last game I played I was in a guild named blubbery boys
True story
Wait we spelled it like this
I’m f2p now
True siege Main
It’s ok f2p whales are good too
Since you’re not buying for your own account you’re still technically f2p

Therion is cool but no more is going towards anyone's SW from me
that's okay, your friendship is all i could ask for and much more

we're you there for our oci siege therion?
I'd consider that pretty hard
but Good Luck!
Yes. I went 9-1
Had another very poor siege
will preface this with I am basically always full rune swapping in siege now because I really want to 10-0 and have been for awhile
#1 - is fine, but I prefer skogul to roid. it's safer.
**#2 - Loss **- Orion defense broke racuni, seara hit racuni, then Manannan hit racuni for 70k damage. I noticed it was a violent orion, so I went back and cleaved, but I thought the offense would work well and I was surprised it was so poor. Not sure what I could have done different. Perhaps I can bernard galleon julie? I'm always afraid to race since the fastest I can make draco is +205.
#3 - N/A
#4 - Fine
#5 - Fine, standard
#6 - Fine, standard
**#7 - Loss **- This was an offense I was recommended. I think it is very bad. I fully rune swapped as I said. I think this just loses to 85 accuracy seara, period. Either that or I got extremely unlucky/hard rune gapped, as I full swapped here.
**#8 - Loss **- I don't really know what I could have done different. This is one of the offenses I've perceived as best against seara nora theomars. I guess I could have swapped to no res build on everyone since I knew they had accuracy? I am unsure what else I could have done though, really.
#9 - Fine, standard
#10 - Risky
Hitting Seara Orion LD is going to be risky pretty much forever until you either premium it out or you get a +225 Draco set and a wicked Kahli set to guarantee you can make it 2v3 round one. It's one of the things that Orion still has going for him imo.
Okay. From now on I'll opt to skip and leave those for others
re: #8, what was def turn order
LDs like mananan do make it easier to cleave but harder to bruiser
so yea. just skip it and let people with swift runes cleave it
the leo feng tetra is fine you probably got unlucky, how did you die?
i personally think you can make it slightly safer by using xing instead of feng, you have added HP lead which is better vs seara than the def lead, plus you have some sort of proc protection
but in the end you can always still lose
actually regardless I think if you weren't already, nemesis tetra should prevent both Theo and Seara from wailing on her without her cutting in to cleanse and give herself a small heal + cleanse a potential defbreak?
Is your tetra like super super fat HP?
Hmmm. I am not sure what the turn order was, I tried to check the replay in guild chat
I did use nemesis tetra
I died to seara bombing me twice
yea xing will fuck that up
twice as in s2 s1 s1 s2 s3?
(seara taking a million turns)
So leo xing zhe tetra. Okie dokie.
or twice as in the 2nd time your tetra just died?
It was not quite that unlucky
It was bomb, she hit, then she got a second turn before tetra got one, placed another bomb and detonated it
ah...
That is true though for sure, the HP lead could definitely make a big difference. Let me give you the build I used on tetra
I think maybe I just needed more pure HP
I feel like res might help for theo but make it weaker to Seara procs
big tradeoff
It was definitely 85% accuracy seara
And nora is going to be max accuracy so res doesn't matter there
Hmmm.
with leo 0 spd build you absolutely should be going for 100 res
it feels like so much wasted efficiency not to get that 100 res if you dont also need spd, like you only need 2 stats
I think this was just an unfortunate case if tetra couldn't get a turn tbh
being able to resist theo is huge, also most searas are not 85 acc
Right. That makes sense.
Cause yeah you could drop res go mega tank then Theo will s2 s1 you and do enough damage to where Seara kills you from the same health anyways lol
Also curious, why FY here?
I feel like if FY isn't directly tanking someone he's not quite as impactful as he could be
For sure. I think he doesn't fit as well as xing zhe when I think more about it. Part of it for me is he just slays theomars very very easily. But xing zhe can do the same and I reckon I can probably find other units that can also

I could do something like this next time instead of nem for a bit more ehp. I'm having trouble finding good builds in swop. I guess I will make sure I use xing zhe next time either way
Naw I think nem is way too good for the turn 1 battle plan here
Also real talk how do people feel about Ritesh here as a tanky wind bruiser
I use him on defense 
But that is mostly due to lack of options haha
I think I'd just use nora instead if I could
Meditate is a huge heal, he has aoe defbreak s3 and s1 with a bit of crit should easily do a good amnt of punch Theo and Seara out damage
So like xing zhe ritesh tetra or something?
Hmm. Maybe it could work with leo.
Yeah I am unsure. Maybe. I could test it
could I have some suggestions vs manon molly perna/manon cichlid perna? i was thinking about icaru chilling elucia vs the molly variant?
Bolverk 
Windy in general should be really good here
Dmg manon can crush the Icaru team and molly makes it hard to lock down
Yeah I'd bolverk if I had
I had a loss vs khmun vigor liu mei
I think I brought a bad team
But I also think that I piloted poorly
Didn't realize I was supposed to be sleeping the khmun
Will share
Only def break is manon and if you have immunity + dark + wind you’re never getting def broken except small windows
replay is quite long
I'm worried cichlid strips and game is hard
Oh I was thinking for molly
Ah
I'm checking the last time I asked about khmun vigor liu mei
I think I just see julie and malite lulu vigor
This seems fair but I feel like it's a little bit scary, the first one
Had another loss.
Game said no
Try to proc more next time
How much acc on vigor tho. I feel ur a little low dmg into khmun shield
Also I think I would prioritize elucia s3 on Monte
was about to ask that, that sleep on eshir at 0.17
when he had no CDs, was needed? '-'
Are you focusing khmun first then with this? Normally I try to sleep khmun/eshir and spam freeze on monte

Monte is sometimes max res. If you have acc in arts it’s prolly enough
I can try to put him on more res. I do use vigor a lot so I want him to have a real set
It felt like I really couldn't kill anything though 
Like is the offense not good vs khmun monte eshir?
focus eshir probs, khmun will tunnel onto windy and then perma sleep monte
Hmmm. Okay.
its similar to khmun bastet odin from way back when where u want the aoe defbreaker perma slept cause you cant proc out of 2t sleep
then 2v3ing monte should be way less dangerous
I just felt like it was hard to break khmun's shield
u can probably alternate damage a bit between khmun and eshir until people are destroyed but i would make sure you try your best to never let monte move or let him as little as possible
Got it.
freezing eshir also kills the tempo buff from spd buffs* so yeah
if you focus eshir and sleep monte you shouldnt have too many issues with shields eventually because they should not have too many spd buffs
I will do that from now on
I'm trying to figure out what is wrong with my vigor, I'm not sure how I can improve him 🤔
Always sleep the solo unit imo (liu mei or monte) and focus the unit which you dont easily tank (eshir or Vigor) . I saw u misplay a lot using vigor s2 into windy s2. Better just safe windy s2 for when your units are running out if speedbuff and just do some dmg +possible slow on monte /lm instead. Havent faced a lot of khmun eshir monte so not sure if that's actually a counter
For the Khmun vigor lm tho: the fight looks horrible. Your dmg output is way too low to actually do dmg to anything and you also seem to have no destroy sets so this fight war bound to be lost from the start from what i can see. No idea how you want to break through khmun vigof with basically just jultan dmg. The most common counter that i know from top siege is elucia vigor windy but i think dark tank versions with jubelle or jultan are also nice, you're just easier trapped by a super slow high dmg KV lm trap i think. If u want to use lulu tho, the only counter that i have grown to like is Susano lulu jubelle because you just need a lot more dmg with lulu in the team
this all makes a lot of sense
there were a few times it felt silly using windy s2, but i couldn't really put it into words
Yeah it's not like an insane misplay but i thought i'd point it out
Can i see your windy artis +runes? He Hits like a wet noodle
Yeah I think this offense is really bad for sure.
Actually would be nice kf you show your vigor too

I Was about to say that lol
Left one
I think for the off in General it's also a slight rune issue
Think maybe it just has to be icaru elucia chilling
Like my leaders told me for the team to run +30khp Max cr decent acc vio will vigor who is on 5tick with speedbuff
Maybe I let my guild mates hit and confirm it isn't swift eshir
Idk the term 5tick :D
239 or 286?
Yeah i also just dont know good it even is into the khmun monte eshir
286
My bad
Idk the numbers lol
I definitely can't make +30k 100% cr vio will with my best runes
yeah it was pretty insane

This is the closest I can do with that @civic steeple
So very very far off
(only totem enabled)
I am so damn glad this thread was made lmfao
I hope it helps you :D
There's a lot we talk about and if you are looking for more entry level siege questions, there's an older thread before I started in g3
https://discord.com/channels/109904961969586176/1050413235360235520 Here is a link to the first iteration of this thread. This can be a good learning resource for players getting into siege for real defenses that you may encounter in g1 with real examples.
With artis?
I'll check it out
Without artis!
Not sure if i need a bit more sod tho
Oh
Well that's good enough then
Remember you want him to br 286 with speedbuff
Speed - Ticks to reach 100% ATB
Combat speed 477 = 3 Ticks
Combat speed 358 = 4 Ticks
Combat speed 286 = 5 Ticks
Combat speed 239 = 6 Ticks
Combat speed 205 = 7 Ticks
Combat speed 179 = 8 Ticks
I mean speed buff basically always bumps you up a tick
Oh

Well no i mean 286
I guess that would make it a lot easier to rune him too :p
This one is odd because it's not 239 tick or 286
It's 239 total
Yeah i just slapoed random stuff together, unsure of how much spdbuff coveres lol
I'm not entirely sure how it works out math wise to be honest
@fallow sail Pls help, need math expertise
In all seriousness though
Wats the question
I think it seems better than the offense I was using. But I still am apprehensive
Okay so if we have a vigor, right, and he uses speed buff
How much +speed would he need to get to 358 tick?
Or rather
More importantly
Is that number above 239?
idiot (mod/advisor) nice reading comprehension
I meant 286

Yeah same question diff number
220
So
In both cases
For all intensive purposes
You go up a speed tick with speed buff
So basically speed buff just puts you up a tick
Unless you’re really slow then it might be 2 ticks
While I have you here still. What do you think about vs khmun vigor liu mei for non-cleave options?
Iirc you can just MVL that lol
yes u can
I think that it is not very safe
I know about the offense, I just am unsure it is safe'
Basically
LM has to absolutely pop off
For you to lose
Bc if lulu moves
Or malite moves
And they aren’t cced

You just start a lock
It can lose but only into the damage variants that get to pop off
@civic steeple i appreciate you going through and giving piloting feedback. from now on i'll be uploading all of my losses to show the piloting so perhaps that can be improved as well
you're welcome, i'll gladly continue giving you my two Cents on it
does anyone here have slot 4 cd on their khmun?
or does he not need cr/cd stats to do his thing
Late to the party, but an offense I like into KVL is Harmonia, Jultan, Water Dhalsim (think Kyle for non event)
Harmonia/Jultan will take all the hits from KVL, allowing for Water Dhalsim to have passive up to nuke something and win (LM s3 rng might turn off passive)
Can lose to LM Revenge procs to put def break on him, so play accordingly
Harmonia/Jultan follows usual build. Water Dhalsim i've had at 205 tick, 100 cr

CDMG is very difficult to make happen. I previously had khmun on CR and just recently got a really nice slot 4 rune with high CR on HP% and used that instead.
Just Cr is fine
I think I discussed this with futoo and hippo recently, and they both suggested just aiming towards 100 cr and not bothering much going cdmg, so that I could prioritize speed and tankiness
Honestly cd is overrated on khmun
Unless you’re trying to punish a bruiser offense it’s just not worth the effort
yes I know. neither of these players are siege players, just so you know
i've tried pure hp, cr and cdmg. i think cdmg can work if you have very high rune quality but in general it's sort of not really what you're trying to do with khmun. you're basically always trying to bruiser with khmun with destroy anyways so there's really not so much point in playing with cdmg
when you're starting getting cr can be hard, so just pure HP is fine
i don't prioritize 100% cr over tankiness. I'd rather be tankier and have ballpark in that area

@fallow sail Is this correct?
I'm not sure if the stats are correct though. I am curious if more tankiness is important
I think icaru can be runed significantly better because I didn't add defense tower. I could have lower def than this
Bernard?
That was how I was told to do it
interesting
If I can get this to work I can set the offense up 3 times. I'll just need to build 2 more chillings which is not a problem

damn thats a red chilling
😔
and only one 
we're good i can build it i had one stashed away, i just need to get perfect skill up
just build 30 monte and learn to procc like the monte yesterday, then u can go 30/0 every siege
May I drop a quick question regarding chilling?
yeah sure
Would revenge work on his passive?
i don't care anymore these days, i want people to ask questions
yes i think so
and people aren't using h&a enough
I like the idea of general threads tbh, like a thread just to fire small questions, but at the same time it becomes hard to track stuff
h&a should really be used more, just a great part of this discord
gz
the thread was getting super flooded before so it was hard to get my siege questions answered
How fast is ur chilling
Ill write on general to not spam here
This is a rune swap offense lol
FARM GIANTS NERD

idiot (mod/advisor) nice reading comprehension
Uh
If you’re not using this to hit swift ones too
You might as well just use the snipe comps
The whole point of this offense is it blind hits both swift and vio/despair
If you’re dodging swift bc scout just use cleaves
the thing is I'm still scared of cleaving because my cleave sucks
i lushened yesterday and i was so nervous going in
thought i was gonna not kill or some shit
and i'm talking rune swpa of course
let me show my lushen
the goal is
i want to be able to hit 4* towers
and 4* tower is monte
that is the current 4* tower meta
that and khmun vigor liu mei apparently

@fallow sail
here are the runes used
like i just feel like it isn't enough
did you see the monte incident ent?
here it is if you haven't seen it
Yeah. Next time. Well. Honestly. I don't know if I'm going to run this offense again. I don't really want to hit monte anymore. It's too hard. That was why I wanted to set up chilling icaru elucia
Kind of feels impossible to win >80% of the time and I really don't want to go into a tower with an 80% winrate
That's why I've been asking because honestly feeling very helpless against monte recently :D
Leak your runes for it?
You're definitely in a better guild than me, but the 4 times I went up against monte, I used carc, triana, iris
It was eshir instead of vigor tho.
i missed the iris hoh, also this still loses to swift eshir or monte proccing or iris not despair stunning unfortunately
the issue isn't so much that i can't beat it, it's that i can't beat it consistently
Monte was surprising
Was gonna build one maybe, but someone on general discord said that monte teams in g1 has a much lower success rate than in g3
So I pushed that team down the priority list
That was probably me
What you have to understand
The thing about monte that makes him good, now, there is tech that people don't know I'm sure that solves the defenses
But basically for the plebs that dont have the top secret tech that probably exists
It's either icaru elucia chilling which requires supreme rune quality (unless we are talking about Eshir lead)
Or you can just. Well. Look at the monte incident above
And the second option is inconsistent
It might win 9/10 times
But 9/10 is not good enough in g3
In g1 winning 10% of the time is bad
Like your defenses can win 50% of the time when they aren't even that good
Or if you smurf you can get some crazy shit
Currently in the g1 account I am piloting
I have jultan eshir vigor with a 50% winrate
I'm new to "serious" siege and I figured stuff like that isn't for me right now
Was gonna stick to the tried and tested and work up from there
As you should
If you want specific recommendations feel free to open a thread and we can help you
I’ve run into the same issues with turn 2into Monte
here's the monte incident
i'm just done hitting monte i feel like until i figure something out
Khmun racuni malite was safe for me until Monte 100% to 0% my malite
Sec
Ent hit the nail on the head with “FARM MORE GIANTS”
I'll make a question in help and advice right?
yep, you can make a thread
posted
I checked thru someone elses siege thread, do you need me to post my logs?
If you post logs that will help, I'll take a look when I can here
get ready to cringe
it's okay I don't judge
That would require me keeping this god forsaken offense runed
Just for whenever you run it and what you run it into
Dead I hate to burst your bubble
The odds of ent runing this offense again
PROBABLY not
x)
He is cleave enjoyer right now, just chilling
give me a few months haha
i'll get the entrei seal of approval on my +170 swift sets
So
Despite me being the guy who started this offense in sf
I don’t actually run this at all
Bc too much work
xD

i don't recommend running this offense at all either. just too much work. it's one of those things where you have to break so many premium sets to make 3 specific premium sets
this isn't the first time an offense like this comes along where i've said fuck this too much work/too high rune reqs
for example there was that MST counter with dark windy that i said fuck this too
I like dark windy
It’s probably worth testing and trying these comps for practice and understanding
If you just wanna win with high % in reg season you just cleave with Intel
Esp all this Clara stuff
yea this for sure
i build and test practically every single comp ive seen others use or i've read about
as long as i have the units
probably only 20% of the builds i test with end up seeing a real siege fight
the problem i have with this is i simply don't have enough mana to test, i was considering going to g1 for one season and not rune swapping at all just so i'd be able to actually rune swap and test consistently
but at the same time i really don't want to because i just want to play g3 siege
i also am almost always full rune swapping because there's just too much of a disparity i feel between my runes and the people i'm fighting
and i don't mind! i just wish it was not so hard on mana
It used to be worse 
what do you mean?
also i think i understand a lot of veteran siege players are tired, i still have crazy fiery resolve and motivation, so i don't mind putting in lots of work
The mana cost got halved at some point, so it was 50k per rune
So i used to burn mana at an insane rate too rune swapping and testing haha
ohhh yeah. i honestly don't know what i'd do. i think i'd just give up at that point and definitely spend a few seasons farming mana
the solution
realistically speaking is i just need to swipe more

Use those coins for mana 

haha

right now i'm okay
and i have fren letting me test that has unlimited mana + god runes
I know its not optimal, but if i really needed mana i would hahaha
i've done it
And im pretty sure i did at one point too lmao
i've been chilling poverty line forever
but right now usually before siege i'm at like 20m mana and end at 10 to 13
but any time i want to upgrade runes or anything i'm screwed
Is it worthwhile to devilmon Tiana? For once I am actually out of monsters to devilmon I think. I could start doing dupe vigor but that seems odd
My theomars also is not maxed but I am unsure about that as well
Normally I always devilmon defense but it seems a bit not worth in this case
what are your options again
tiana is definitely a strong contender
theo is also 100% worth devils in my opinion but only if you want more defs. he is currently a top 10 siege def mon in the game and even more important considering he's f2p. also you will never run out of tesas to want to skill up with buying ifrit pieces every week
I am unsure I have any other meaningful options. There aren't any other nat 5s I use I think that aren't skilled up. Both my galleons have harmful effect rate maxed on s3. I can't find any other options.
I am still having the issue of not being able to build meaningful defenses.
We stack clara monte fuuki and I can't max skill fuuki.
#4 is an extra for if we are blue mapping
I always refresh so people won't know to reuse offenses or what have you
But overall the top one I think has only gotten 2 or 3 wins out of 15 or so. I improved the runes recently but it is still very unsuccessful
None of them get wins against strong guilds
Where can I check this on SWGT again? I know there is a place where you can check def winrates
I just know where to check it for a single siege if u mean that, idk about overall wr tho
Yeah for overall
trying to find it rn
Ty!
The khmun monte Eshir is also extra
I know khmun is not on tick
It's mostly the top two I am focused on
the meta with tiana rn is shes actually a DD
so the dmg on s2 is actually pretty important - i would just max that
I will check when I am home
That was what I was thinking
My current plan is to fully devilmon her since I will wait to get them to go until 2nd skill until s1 and s3 are maxed 
@inland sedge Tiana cheongpung
yeah i think its important
Damn gz, teach me how to be so good at using devilmons
Op
i want tiana s1 skillups
the only times you don't kill stuff/are at risk of losing is if you miss def breaks. if you hit your def breaks its really hard ot not kill anything between cp + tiana
I can show later, but you have to keep pulling data from siege which i dont have time to do (and it wont show up unless its seen by exporter before you refresh the w/l of the base)
i'll do it, i just need to know how
#1 - Good, standard I think (did cdmg triana and accuracy logan, killed nigong first)
#2 - I like this one a lot. I actually got pretty unlucky and still won.
#3 - Standard
#4 - Standard
#5 - Tried another new offense I was recommended. Do not like. Will not be using again.
#6 - I forgot to use tetra, but I still think that this offense is quite good.
#7 - Standard
#8 - Scouted and recleaved
#9 - Standard I believe. I think it's a little bit scary for mihael but overall seems pretty safe
#10 - Scouted and recleaved
Everything look clear? What does everyone think?
i don't love some of those khmun eshir monte counters but i guess you just don't really have many options
I know #5 is bad. Do you not like #2?
i've used mikene before. carc double reviver is really popular but i've said i don't like it due to lack of cleanse
mikene teon has no cleanse and no immunity
i'd feel better if you had premium options like amarna or betta
even heal block fucks you
and every single enemy has heal block
you're right. I also didn't manage to one shot eshir after killing monte which felt very sus
basically solution is whale more

must unlock premium option
yea there are actually quite a lot of good counters but literally all of them involve ld4s
well
it's that or i sack my ass off in giants and get 3 +210 sets with stats
that's the current plan
i think i'd still rather cleave with shitty cleave
than try to bruiser without ld4s
and by shitty cleave i mean just standard stuff even like lushen
julie
garo draco kahli
i want to be able to use icaru chilling elucia
or susano/mihyang wayne/bernard cov
I know it isn't fool proof but like today when I did siege. I was streaming for 5 hours. I rune swapped every offense fully I believe. I don't mind doing it. I'd prefer not to but I've been losing so much lately that I would rather put in the time and get wins
So icaru chilling elucia is no trouble - I just need to get the runes
I am trying to cleave more though!
I don't want to be one dimensional
