#

approximately only 10% of my units or builds that i made

#

saw any real action

#

90% of it was just testing and me deciding it sucked and wasn't good enough

slim hatch
#

Yeah that feature is pretty helpful, Yak's guild is full of good players

marble lance
#

i don't know anyone good who actively plays more than 1 account

#

there's just no time

#

there is way too much to do in this game now

#

if you want to actually get anywhere

slim hatch
#

For toa hell should I go for 239 tick vio or 286 tick swift?

#

I can afford 2 286 vio set for spectra and tyron but not sure for others

marble lance
#

286 tick vio

slim hatch
#

I have to choose between more tick and vio

marble lance
#

you can use a speed lead

#

manage it

slim hatch
hybrid crystal
#

For toa hell vio is nice but not really compulsory

slim hatch
#

On low base spd mons like Homie, I can only manage up to +140, which is around 270 cmb spd

#

So yeah I think I'll go for 286 spd swift

slim hatch
hybrid crystal
#

Ur string could be like no spd

marble lance
#

no

slim hatch
marble lance
#

yes the bolv team is just all siege

slim hatch
#

I still don't get the +6 spd rune in rune craft event

#

what should I do?

marble lance
#

what do you mean

slim hatch
#

It's ending soon but I still don't get a quailified rune

marble lance
#

oh

#

well what do you think.. just settle for the next 17 or even 16 you see

slim hatch
#

Yeah I guess I'll have to do that

#

I've spent all eblem and Jesus still hate me

merry star
#

2 days left to farm emblems… get into giants with a vengeance

slim hatch
#

took me quite sometimes but I finally managed to build the team

#

mihyang is about 10 spd slower than to be tuned but it's because I lack grind, sleeping in r5 and pray for an intagible grind for that

marble lance
#

sometimes its ok for your 2nd DD to not be tuned, if your 1st snipe kills the potential swift unit

slim hatch
#

or can I drop some spd?

#

nah I'm to greedy here, I just hope she's fine

marble lance
#

it'll be fine for now

#

farm giants and look to improve but this looks better

slim hatch
#

ok tks

#

I think I should drop spd lushen

#

that beth take some spd lushen rune and maybe he's not worth running anymore

marble lance
#

you can swap around some sets

#

like this bethony set you can put directly on a spd lushen

slim hatch
#

but I get it, spd lushen is only use like 20% of my arena cleaves, not gonna priority it much

#

btw, since my julie is tuned to bernard, can I run bernard miriam julie lushen?

marble lance
#

julie is good for ao yes

slim hatch
#

I'm a bit fear that nem monster will kill me

slim hatch
#

Fam's help thread

marble lance
#

forgot to reply but typically you overtune these kinds of double dd spd aos, and julie's multihits has a bit of anti nem protection

#

only abellio is really scary but traditional nem monsters aren't

slim hatch
#

I've several trouble against Ariel nem iirc

marble lance
#

nem isn't all or nothing right, you gain atb for every 7% hp lost

#

if a single hit does 22% against a monster with a nem set, that monster will gain 12% atb. but if that hit is split into 2 hits that do 11% each, then the monster gains 8% atb

#

so julie's 6 hits dampen nem effect quite a bit compared to a single big hit that does the same damage

#

also i dunno about this specific bernard miriam julie lushen team

#

but if you do a more classic bernard bastet julie lushen

#

you can easily overtune and get your mons more spd than needed

#

also you don't even have to use lushen with julie

#

these days i think the more meta julie team would be something like shimi julie

#

so you can get in a spd lead and race with kabilla/eshir

slim hatch
#

I get the idea

#

thanks, gotta take shimi out from storage

#

is psama a better shimi?

#

uh, nah I guess not, they're 2 different unit plus psama need def break for big dmg

marble lance
#

shimi does more dmg than psama, and with julie you already have julie being water

#

its a different team

#

you wouldn't use shimi julie against enemy psama

slim hatch
#

I'll just try to fast lushen these shjt

#

or skip

#

in case I need to race spd can kabilla reliably replace bernad?

marble lance
#

kabilla lets you race higher speed defs but you lose dmg because no spd buff

#

for shimi that is

slim hatch
#

alr tks

#

ofc when we need to race spd dmg become less important

slim hatch
#

Will keep that in mind

#

Recently I noticed I'm able to clear more and more defs in conqueror ranks

#

now it's usually 3-4 def per list, which is insanely good tbh

#

I start to think about building Gin properly

#

he seems rather mediocre for now

slim hatch
#

@marble lance this is even better than I expected

#

I see this def, pause for a moment and think "my lushen can hit 14k, he'll kill that Abellio"

#

And he did, Byung also reduced to like 30% hp and get finished by gin

surreal iron
#

you can't hope to kill good abellio without any dmg up support for lushen, it only works because they seems to have not a good runes

slim hatch
#

I'm at C2 (monday so don't mean shit) so I'll risk

#

still a good way to learn what I can do

marble lance
#

it's definitely good to try but i'm pretty sure i've said countless times that abellio is not lushenable

#

there are of course exceptions, for example if the def is bad and abellio is the only thing that will survive lushen (think things like psama triton sav abellio) then it doesn't matter

#

or you can risk it if you're doing a full atk 1 shot setup (like the alicia miriam/mirinae full fight in beginner pvp)

#

but in this case byung juno have very high chance of surviving

slim hatch
#

siiiiuuu

#

@marble lance bye bye kabilla, adriana is my favorite booster now

#

time to build gemini adriana miriam leah offense

#

this is enough on her right?

marble lance
#

what do you mean enough

slim hatch
#

enough skillups

#

I aim for the 20% free crd

marble lance
#

usable with 0 skillups, but only when its maxed then its "enough"

#

stop trying to rationalize you having 3 random skillups on hand

slim hatch
#

can you elaborate in simpler english I'm a bit confused

cyan steeple
#

she doesnt need skillups

#

maxed skill up is what u need for it to be considered enough

marble lance
#

i am saying even if she had no skillups you should still be using her

slim hatch
#

ah yes ofc, I just happen to have some spare blade dancers

#

if it needed I can even devil her, but luckily don't have to yet

marble lance
#

do not devil her

slim hatch
#

yeah

#

so for now I have 2 favorite booster

#

the best is adriana to run this team and cleave most offense

#

and next is bernard to use in galleon julie cleave

#

in siege I would swap the fastest set to bernard, this is for wgb

#

in situation when I need to use lushen for fastest ao possible I'll just switch set to kabilla, can't think of much situation where I should run lushen instead of leah either

slim hatch
#

Abellio is meta in AD but does the same case apply to siege defense?

#

I fear he'll be the Amduat situation because no def break

marble lance
#

abellio is not good for siege def

slim hatch
#

gotta use leftover runes

slim hatch
#

he seems like a strong failsaver

surreal iron
#

Triana hwadam seems better at that

slim hatch
#

btw smol question, is the elite stage in these event dungeon provide anything better than normal one?

surreal iron
#

Before it was the upgrades you get were better quality

marble lance
slim hatch
#

alr, I'll do elite ones then since it's just take a bit longer

slim hatch
#

basically tell me who should I give 3 of my swift set to

#

at least I can use a same rune set between leah/bethony

#

the process isn't wrong right?

slim hatch
#

turn out it isn't that simple

#

@marble lance the ao is working good so far

#

the first 3 mons actually use some of the fastest swift runes I have, I also runed adriana 3 spd slower than possible so I can use the acc% swift rune on gemini

#

I also realize an advantage of tuning by spd buff

#

leah rune is taken from bethony, however in 4 man ao she need 14 less spd to be tuned and I replace a rune for that

#

maybe I can use a different swift dd set on leah and she would still do great

#

it's also super convinient to have adriana atk lead when no spd contest, this is perfect

slim hatch
#

@half marten can you kindly have a look at how I build my team?

#

seems like jx went out for milk

half marten
slim hatch
#

alr tysm

slim hatch
#

so far as I experience, this team do hit a lot of things

#

I don't even have to mind byung and camilla (actually yes if they go together but that's rare)

#

So far I feel some counter to my team are: Amduat and Moore as they cut in b4 Leah, Juno or anything that affect spd buff, 33 lead into fast stripper because it fuck my adriana+19 lead, and rng sometimes make me miss strip and def break on abellio, preventing me from cleaningup byung/cami

#

other than that I'm demolishing shit, and even if I don't adriana teams are fucking op to clean shit up

slim hatch
#

I'm still a bit stuck in end c2 tho

surreal iron
#

You don't have chiwu right?

#

Your Leah's attack is quite low from what I can see

slim hatch
#

Yeah I'll try swop then

slim hatch
#

Well it's more common for one to don't have a nat5 than have one

#

Even the ld4 are far from my reach

marble lance
#

yea it looks correctly tuned

#

you can always check for yourself by setting the offense as a defense and hitting yourself

#

if possible you can add some damage to gemini

#

gemini only removes 1 buff so you can get in trouble vs shields. if you have dmg on him he can actually break shield and then there's only 1 buff left to strip. dmg gets applied before strip

#

after that the improvements will just come from better monster options, skillups, and runes

#

leah teams will have trouble against good cami/byung/juno

#

abellio should be ok because even if abellio doesn't die you're still 1 shotting most of everything else

#

leah can still hit a lot of 33 lead + fast stripper other than triton but you just dont have the monsters and runes

slim hatch
slim hatch
marble lance
marble lance
#

you can't hit zen with that team but ultimately there are leah teams that can safely hit zen

slim hatch
#

it's rune problem then

marble lance
#

i said its both rune and monster

merry star
#

my account isn't too much more advanced than yours and i can hit 33 zen pretty reliably with chiwu adri

slim hatch
slim hatch
marble lance
#

no

#

most people don't farm enough r5

slim hatch
#

like I have around 20 vio runes that isn't spd grinded on my monsters

marble lance
#

in terms of energy management

#

99% of players actually farm too much giants/dragons/necro

slim hatch
#

I think I should find a balance

#

2 months ago I start sleeping in r5 with the aim of grinding every single runes I'm using

#

But now I still don't have enough grind, most vio grinds come from the claw crafting

marble lance
#

most people don't do it so yea, you'll have a lot to catch up on

slim hatch
#

my runes is pretty much farmed by doing daily 10 😦

#

ok this isn't #rant-brag

#

still I feel better than hitting one c1 def per hit with lushen now

slim hatch
merry star
#

201 from runes is only average of 26 speed for non-slot2 runes. So that’s not even a max triple before grind. There’s no set number but that’s a very slow top set if you are trying to compete at the high end of things. You don’t have any random quad speeds or at least max triples?

slim hatch
#

fastest rune is just 25+4

merry star
#

Getting grinds to +5 on all your topset runes will help some, but really you want at least base 21-22 floor for every slot. If you have a base 25 and still total +201, you are missing grinds or using some very low bases

marble lance
#

when you cleave things or try to outspeed defs, you always need to be mentally calculating (or just remembering from experience) what of speed advantage of disadvantage you have

#

for example gemini adriana into clara. what's your speed advantage there? what about into 24 zen? 33 zen?

#

then if you get outsped not infrequently, on equal speed

#

it means you're slow

slim hatch
marble lance
#

frequently or infrequently is also tough to define

#

because the goal of offense is to win like 95% of the time

slim hatch
#

ofc I lose when I fight zen +24 lead, that's 1 spd advantages

marble lance
#

so even getting outsped 1 every 10 times

#

is still bad

marble lance
#

it means you need to be more careful about what you can hit into

slim hatch
#

disadvantages

marble lance
#

and you can still climb

#

but you're slow

slim hatch
#

mb, 111+19<105+24

marble lance
#

its close

slim hatch
#

pvp guide said I should never compete on equal ground

marble lance
#

yes

slim hatch
#

so it's because it's a bad decision to race with zen already, not just because I'm not at my level

marble lance
#

it's a bad idea to race like that but at the same time your swift speed is currently a big weakness for you and an easy target for improvement

slim hatch
#

I know my runes are bad for like p rank, maybe if I can get around +220 you'll consider it ok?

marble lance
#

realistically what you can expect from a beginner top swift set

#

is something like maybe 2 swifts that are 22 + 5, 1 swift that is 21 + 5, broken 23 + 5, then a lucky quad on your account 26 + 5

#

this brings you to around +208

slim hatch
#

yeah I'll keep the +210 number in mind

marble lance
#

if you don't have 21-22 base swifts then you haven't farmed enough giants

#

if you don't have any quads or other high speed runes in general not swift, you haven't farmed enough overall. or like i've seen with some other beginners you've saved up all your reapps for no reason or maybe wasted them

#

if not everything is +5 grinded you haven't farmed enough raids

slim hatch
#

in short, I haven't farmed enough 🙂

#

literally sleeping in raids for a month and get like 10 vio spd grind

#

fuck rng

marble lance
#

its not rng

slim hatch
#

it's actually is, I'm happy with even +3 rare grind for now

marble lance
#

are you in isa

slim hatch
#

well I consider myself a somewhat diligent player

marble lance
#

how many wings do you do each week

#

obviously you're more diligent than the average player

slim hatch
marble lance
#

and you wonder why i'm telling you to stop playing an alt

slim hatch
#

nah bro, at sunday evening I can't even play

marble lance
#

not being able to rush is a huge disadvantage but it's not insurmountable

slim hatch
#

but it's more likely a personal problem so let's not discuss that

marble lance
#

if you say "i can't rush" i'm not actually going to tell you haha if you can't rush then you suck

#

you still do your best to get as high as you can latest you can play on sunday

#

and work on your def to try to stay in top 10k

slim hatch
#

yep, gotta try every time there's an isa, just luck problem

marble lance
#

isa is just 1 example

#

my point is theres so many things you can do to keep improving and learning on one account

#

that you're not doing

#

both in terms of knowledge

#

and in terms of actual account progression

#

there's a lot more than just hitting repeat battle 30x

#

isa is just 1 example

#

using regular arena wings helps you learn and gives you scrolls

#

playing rta helps you learn and gives you scrolls

#

playing in a higher level of siege helps you learn and gives you a ton of rewards not just scrolls

#

i know you have the time, you just choose to spend it on other things like helping people

#

which is perfectly fine

#

but you cannot complain about being unlucky or try to use that as an excuse

#

now that is pure bullshit

slim hatch
#

I'll keep that in mind

#

guess you walked right in my stomach

#

and while that's quite uncomfortable, I have to say yeah you're right

marble lance
#

just be honest with yourself, i will always be the first one to support whatever you enjoy doing and try to come up with solutions given your situation and how you want to play

slim hatch
#

by learning I can do so with actually playing the game, siege is running rn

marble lance
#

i do not like it if you are not honest and just make up dumb excuses like "i don't have time" or "i have bad rng"

slim hatch
#

sorry for that then

#

yes, actually learning to improve in sw isn't my top priority

#

and I prefer to have 2 sw apps running on my laptop when I'm comfortable on my desk

marble lance
#

so when we have conversations like and i'm saying you're slow

#

what you could say is

#

should i just put all my energy into giants and khaledrun and reapp only swift? or should i still try to do a mix, because since i can't rush sunday night i need to prioritize my def a bit more and get better vio runes?

slim hatch
#

ýe

#

fucking yes

marble lance
#

should i be sitting in r5 until literally all my top speed runes are +5 or is that a bit too much?

slim hatch
#

thanks for saying shit out loud from my brain

#

those are exactly what I want to ask

marble lance
#

i'm never going to blame you for your preferences and situation

#

but you can't say shit like well i'm slow because i'm unlucky and don't have time

slim hatch
#

how should I optimize my resources, including time

slim hatch
marble lance
#

my answer would be - yes you do need to farm more r5 than most people normally think, your top set should always have maxed +5 leg spd grinds

#

and as far as rune farming goes

#

definitely prioritize giants, dont do any dragons or necro

slim hatch
#

really don't know why I couldn't say those shit

marble lance
#

get vio with event runes

slim hatch
#

but it's now

marble lance
#

your top swift not just helps your offense

#

but it also helps your defense

#

a fast swift monster on defense will get you wins

merry star
slim hatch
#

but I don't farm the same amount of time everyday

#

sometimes I spend hundreds of crystals daily

#

sometimes I just complete daily quest and quit

#

I expect myself to at least be stronger than the account in #1048719420870107227 , as their fastest swift is 10 slower than me

slim hatch
slim hatch
#

thanks again for helping me grow both as a player and a person

slim hatch
#

maybe it's time I drop the spd lushen

#

I don't use it anymore, his only place in sfah feel no longer worth it

marble lance
#

this is why i didn't want to add spd lushen teams to ?ao guide

#

you're right it's just not too useful right now

#

however in siege it's a bit more useful

#

there are lots of good cleaves with spd lushen, for example julie bastet lushen, praline kabilla lushen, jamire homie lushen

slim hatch
#

instead of playing julie bastet lushen I'll just build dupe galleon julie bernard

marble lance
#

it's a completely different team

#

julie bastet lushen is great for something like nana sav rakan

slim hatch
#

well I guess I can keep him

marble lance
#

but of course it's always still going to end up being a matter of priority

#

maybe you have things more important still

slim hatch
#

hmm so it make sense to remove him

#

I'm fine with eirgar raoq kro ling ling loren for sfah

slim hatch
#

I just reread Beginner's PvP and really want to talk about this part: #1048719420870107227 message

Siege offenses - bruisering continued - bruisers

Bruisers: these are built tanky to be able to take damage from a real damage threat, but aren't full tanks that you'd expect to survive forever without significant support. They're also able to output some damage themselves, which in a lot of cases may be all the damage you need on a team especially if you have destroy. Most often bruisers are HP scaling monsters (but not always - sometimes they have passives that increase their tankiness, such as Tesa). The HP scaling skills are what allows them to be built tanky but still output some damage. As an example, I'd expect a bruiser like Skogul to be able to safely tank an enemy Perna - but only if nothing else could def break that monster. Expecting to continuously tank a Perna while def broken is something I'd save for a monster with a dedicated tank role.

Bruisers are usually runed Spd/HP/HP or even HP/HP/HP (or def, if it's a def scaling monster like Tractor). If it's an atk scaling monster like Tesa, you'd see a build like Spd/CD/HP. Again Vio/Destroy is ideal for most of these, but broken sets are always ok when you're first starting out.

Example bruiser - my Vigor: https://imgur.com/a/SXPHDfV

slim hatch
#

Bruisers are usually runed Spd/HP/HP or even HP/HP/HP (or def, if it's a def scaling monster like Tractor). If it's an atk scaling monster like Tesa, you'd see a build like Spd/CD/HP.

#

Yet we see Khmun, Eshir who should be built on crit, and tbh I'm still not sure with Tractor and Roid

#

what does split scaling have to do with Vigor not benefit from crit build?

merry star
slim hatch
#

I see, tysm

slim hatch
#

I decide I'll keep julie gbah

#

I rune her on 205 tick atk/crit dmg/atk for giants and maybe make a second julie for siege

#

or even easier I'll replace the slot 2 atk with slot 2 spd and make sure she's tuned to bernard

#

my current julie is too weak

slim hatch
#

I can't hit this def

#

haegang isn't included in ?ad yet I'm having trouble with him

#

he's like an aoe amduat

hybrid crystal
#

Gemini does nothing here frfr

slim hatch
marble lance
#

replace caremlla with a booster

#

i dont know what you mean by haegang is an aoe amduat, amduat is already aoe

#

haegang boost is only 20%. you can easily work around it/outboost it

#

for example with tiana, its actually fairly common to overtune your DD (make the much faster than needed for standard tuning)

#

tiana boost is 30%, its still higher than haegang

#

for example i think i've showed my tiana dd before they are over +170

#

it lets me hit things like tian lang, and haegang in this situation too

ripe idol
#

I would tianagalleon this with psam as lead and pos for Atk bar reduction

marble lance
ripe idol
#

Why not? That’s what I’ve been using against similar comps with vanessa lead, does Haegang change the equation?

slim hatch
#

like gemini kabilla adriana leah?

marble lance
#

haegang and triana both present big potential problems

#

do you know what they do?

marble lance
slim hatch
#

got it

ripe idol
ripe idol
#

"When enemies remove beneficial effects of allies, all harmful effects on the ally with removed beneficial effects will be removed and the Attack Bar will be increased by 20%. [Automatic Effect]"

#

If i strip with tiana

#

and they are built on will/shield, that counts as a beneficial effect

#

They will get atk bar increasement

hybrid crystal
#

Wait is that effect sum up?

surreal iron
#

no

slim hatch
#

it's midweek, but I can see my limit up here

slim hatch
#

@marble lance how should I swop optimizing deva for kyledbah?

marble lance
#

you dont have to worry about ehp on her

slim hatch
#

oh yeah

#

fuck swop

marble lance
#

+fire = co-op dmg when it comes to artis

#

its really simple to rune her

slim hatch
#

alr thks

marble lance
#

hit spd req, 100 cr, balance atk and cd for as much dmg as possible

#

no vio

slim hatch
#

I'll try, have some decent rage runes for this

fleet grail
#

Hey 😄 I already have Vero, Verde, Spectra, Loren, Fran, Bella, Kro, Mav, Darion and Raoq 6 star. What should I 6 star next? Smth like Vigor, Icaru, Lulu? I read that Mellia and Shannon are not required to 6 star

slim hatch
#

and next time ask in your own thread

fleet grail
#

But the problem is that I keep asking people what I should 6 star and everyone says go check #guides there is nothing there... I even got muted for an hour trying to look at console 😓

ripe idol
fleet grail
#

Ok, sorry. Thank you

slim hatch
#

@marble lance the way arena works is interesting

#

I expected myself to drop straight to c1 after one night, but suprisingly I just drop to c3 due to lower than 1500 point

#

and I got hit 5 times in 10 hours

#

how weird, my def is basically clara+3 bullshit

#

and my clara is even +109 spd to begin with

marble lance
#

midweek arena is not interesting

slim hatch
#

haha, it's interesting because it's the first time I experience it

#

goes against my expectations

#

should I intentionally lower my ranks so that I won't get ambushed during rush hours?

#

I need to stay around where I want to finish, do I?

merry star
#

Just use midweek as practice for your AOs

#

You’ll get hit slightly more Saturday/Sunday pre rush

slim hatch
#

should I spend devil to max her s1, it has stun

#

can I leah this?

marble lance
#

try it and you'll find out 🙂

#

(hint: you cannot)

slim hatch
#

ok I won't

slim hatch
marble lance
marble lance
slim hatch
marble lance
#

"can i hit this" is actually a pretty bad question to ask

#

because honestly you really should try it

#

that's what midweek arena is for

#

you will learn the game better

slim hatch
#

it's likely that I will be swepted by dark ponie passive

#

but yeah I'll come back and try

slim hatch
#

but yeah I'm sure I can't clear it now

slim hatch
#

really helpful for cleanup imo

slim hatch
#

mid week practice

slim hatch
#

who the fuck is lushen

#

I forgot him

slim hatch
#

a bit revision on my team

#

generic support build, main drawback is she's slow, have to improve overtime then

#

building this little buddy on spd/cr/acc and it's so damn useful with clearing shield buff

#

idk if this is worth, she actually do help with hitting byung, I haven't fail clearing any byung with her

#

but sometimes it trigger abellio passive

#

I guess it's still more beneficial

slim hatch
#

@marble lance just wanna confirm how should I rune leo helena jeanne offense

#

so I got Leo on double will shield

#

Helena maybe go vio destroy, hp/cd/hp

#

then maybe Jeanne go Vio Nem/Revenge/Shield, full tank build

#

do I get that right?

marble lance
#

you want full will

#

and max res

slim hatch
marble lance
#

except leo

slim hatch
#

by max res I'd take it as 59

marble lance
#

yes

slim hatch
#

since we use jeanne lead

#

alr, will try out

slim hatch
marble lance
#

some people don't do the res for helena

#

i like it

#

you shouldn't go cr though

#

it's a leo team you dont need speed

slim hatch
#

ok, I'll try

slim hatch
#

I still haven't gem things but here is what I get

#

more precisely what I'm aiming for

marble lance
#

you have 5 vio runes

#

you need more acc

slim hatch
#

+45 s2 accuracy arti, now I get 45

marble lance
#

yea that looks better now just get 100 cr

slim hatch
#

maybe I'll try drop some atk, but 100 cr is tough

marble lance
#

the cr is more important than res

#

and definitely more important than a bit more atk

slim hatch
#

Since res is all or nothing can I run 15?

marble lance
#

you can see how you like it

slim hatch
#

Ok

#

For arri I'm going -water on helena, -firr on leo

#

What should jeanne get on left

marble lance
#

you leave them blank and swap specifically for each def you're facing

#

if you're too lazy poor or casual then figure out the most common def you use this on, use artis for that def, and just leave them there

slim hatch
marble lance
#

huh?

slim hatch
#

wait a bit, I'll try to hit one and see

#

it isn't a strong def since no immu, but I think it's a good case to use here

#

strategy is rather easy too

#

just leo hit, jeanne provoke+invincible on self, helena turn into human and AoE nuke

#

as long as savanah don't def break into perna, I'm fine

slim hatch
#

damn this is a weak opponent yet I still lost in 4

#

is it rune issue or could I have pick a better option?

#

I guess I misplayed t5

#

I let a def break slid in

copper elbow
#

Jlh is hard into immunity right

slim hatch
#

oh and dark mermaid too, yeah I wasn't smart with my pick

copper elbow
#

For 4/ in the first battle you could kill Theo with anti revive

slim hatch
#

lemme see if I have one

copper elbow
#

Something like fluff + Karl + something that can kill Juno easily

marble lance
#

typically need some premium monsters to be safe vs theo

#

for example leo, or tractor windy camilla

slim hatch
#

it has no spd lead, can I safely cleave it

ripe idol
marble lance
#

i'm considering nat 5s to be premium

#

this def in particular is not great because there's no speed threat, so it's "weak" or "easy" to use raki (basically what furyn suggestesd with killing theo with anti revive

#

but this won't be the case for better defs with theo

brisk swift
#

Adriana Bethony is weird to begin with but tanky twins easily beats this

#

I forget but we had a pretty elegant solution that was simple to the elad Theo shit

#

I remember doing mo raki but that feels like it just loses to nem theo

tacit dragon
#

Isnt nr 1 also bad? Julie into feng doesnt seem good. Woosa can survive Julie and S3 for immunity . Then Feng can just solo

copper elbow
#

Yeah is bad

slim hatch
#

However I do believe Mihyang Adriana to be a ok choice for this, the match play out exactly how I want it to be

copper elbow
#

You are sniping with non boost bethony

slim hatch
copper elbow
#

So either you’re not tuned on you run a very fast bethony

slim hatch
#

I run a +160 beth

copper elbow
#

I’d rather just praline bethony here

slim hatch
#

And she hit 27k

#

Per shot

copper elbow
#

Drop speed for more dmg

slim hatch
#

Well I have other sniper to

copper elbow
#

Ok answer this question

#

What is the benefit of mihyang Adriana vs praline

#

When would you use one over the other

slim hatch
#

Yeah I'll use Praline Cov Kahli against this

#

My beth is built to be used in Mihyang Adriana/Eshir so I'll keep it as it is

tacit dragon
#

Which you havent used yet in your attacks

#

Like

copper elbow
#

The problem I have with copper dozer is a lot of ppl at low rank run swift woods

#

So you can get dmg checked

#

And die 1v3 to laika

#

Woosa

tacit dragon
#

That oph theo riley is just Theo being the threat. Jx probably mentioned many comps in other threads, safe counter for me is praline songseol shren and just snipe theo there

tacit dragon
copper elbow
#

I saw ppl in cv lose to this like that

#

Or just a +180 swift imme getting outsped by vio woosa

slim hatch
#

Or can I play with immunity since no stripper?

copper elbow
#

For feng team?

slim hatch
#

Yes

copper elbow
#

It depends

#

Feng and laika can kill without def break

#

They do a lot of dmg

#

Depends on what you take

slim hatch
#

Haha thinking bour Harmonia Nora Skogul

copper elbow
#

Harmonia is 1 turn immmu so I wouldn’t think of it like that

#

Lot of gaps

#

When you say immunity tank I think of a 3 turn unit like woosa vela Louise

slim hatch
#

No vela so I guess Dozer Coppr

#

Guess I'll have to build dark neostone

#

Can megan darkneo+1 that

slim hatch
#

@marble lance what should kyle's right arti be?

marble lance
#

Add dmg by atk or any cd

slim hatch
#

got it, tysm

slim hatch
#

she isn't on my main siege def and I think 286 swift still work for offense

#

tbh should I even run dot ao alongside my leah and lushen ao?

copper elbow
#

is your whole dot ao 286

#

i personally run 239 dot offense would rather be tankier and have res if ur gonna put more stats

#

its more annoying if u move first bc then haegang doesnt do as much

slim hatch
copper elbow
#

they should all be the same tick and tuned

#

i guess this is the advice written, so then your answer is "yes make it 286"

marble lance
#

i did 239 at first but 286 is definitely much better

#

there's no way even with 286 that you move first against any real def

#

ive been using this ao a lot for months

copper elbow
#

I share runes with the siege off

marble lance
#

same

copper elbow
#

Where it is more likely

marble lance
#

but siege haegang team is different

#

you can do 239 there

#

for example i still have a bellenus for siege that i use with haegang sometimes

#

and i have it on 239

#

but cant use that for ao

#

for arena there's going to be lots of things that haegang will have trouble cutting in on

#

tritons, lora, tl, etc

#

you need the extra speed

#

and also arena plays out a lot more like a bruiser team rather than a 2nd turn cleave

#

in siege its understandable when you face stuff like clara tesa sav, 1 rica s3 and its pretty much over

#

this won't be the case when you're fighting ad camilla

slim hatch
#

t4 lost because of def break

#

that AoE def break+slow from occult girl is actively harmful, feel like I need immunity

#

harmonia?

marble lance
#

You need to just cleave this

#

0 reason to bruiser it

slim hatch
#

fuck it why do I forget cleaves teams

#

actually hp lead is a bit scary

#

but could have copper dozer

#

t1 is a bit risky nora almost died, next time I'll bring full tank instead, maybe a tesa

#

t3 failed to oneshot racuni, managed to bring the fight down to 1v1 with odin then lost

Lead

Increase the Critical Rate of ally monsters in the Guild Battles by 33%

marble lance
#

people always overestimate the impact of lead skills

slim hatch
#

you mean the only one really matter is spd lead?

marble lance
#

hp lead doesn't make a squishy monster tanky, and will never be the difference between a cleavable def vs non cleavable def

#

same thing for spd lead

#

the presence of a spd lead doens't mean it's a spd def that you need to race

#

for example if you see something like carc molly ritesh, it has a spd lead but there's no spd threat, you can cleave it with your 5th string swift set

marble lance
#

the first thing you do for any def is to ask "can i lushen this"

#

next thing you ask is "can i praline this"

slim hatch
#

Yes yes

#

Aghh I was so fucking dunh

#

Dumb

#

It's too obvious

marble lance
#

what monster failed to 1 shot a racuni

slim hatch
#

The team run a couple of shield

#

Taru

marble lance
#

what does your taru look like

slim hatch
#

Fast enough to be tuned with Adriana

#

Damn

#

Yes it's my fault

#

Gonna remember that next time

marble lance
#

is it runed to be used with your praline?

slim hatch
#

No sorry

#

It's my fault, I forgot about that

marble lance
#

congrats never in my life have i heard about a racuni surviving a single target ignore def nuker

surreal iron
# slim hatch

why not just garo draco khali third one, and kill odin

marble lance
#

actually this is a good point

slim hatch
#

Oh yeah

marble lance
#

i didnt even see the odin

#

its a bad offense

#

you can get 1v3'ed

slim hatch
#

I need to play more siege

#

I'll test and play with my guild defs for more experiences

#

Good thing is, you don't see me lose 3 4 matches anymore

#

Just 1 match due to skill issues

slim hatch
#

@marble lance I've max skilled Helena, should Adriana be my next target

marble lance
#

why did you do helena before adriana

slim hatch
#

because I've already skillup helena

#

then I got leah and start using adriana consistently

#

but nvm, adriana is definitely my current target

marble lance
#

oh it sounded like you just recently decided to skill up helena nvm

slim hatch
marble lance
#

You can skip it for now and come back later

slim hatch
#

great, tysm

#

now to think about my next target

#

Leo is fine unskilled I guess

#

So I want to properly play Bolverk teams

#

Either Aaliyah or Amelia will be my target

#

which one should I go for

hybrid crystal
#

Aaliyah can work without skill up, u just spam s4 clueless

marble lance
#

traditionally people use amelia with bolv, although aaliyah is pretty much just as good

#

however if you have both, aaliyah is good in more other places such as with feng

#

so it is better to save amelia for bolv

#

both are sort of usable without skillups, amelia moreso because you can just leave her in human form forever

#

if your goal is to just make a bolv team i wouldn't skill up either of those for now

#

if you have a feng or something else to use with aaliyah, id consider doing aaliyah

slim hatch
#

not what I have for now btw

marble lance
#

yea feng is ideal, but i mean you can still use her as a generic op support

slim hatch
#

maybe I can start playing some rta?

#

for now I think my team will be around leo, so it's leo haegang helena

#

I tried to watch seanb video, it's pretty much the only thing I can come up with for now

#

maybe I'll save devils in the mean time

#

damn I feel so hesitate to start rta

marble lance
#

not just rta

#

but it's a super common problem

slim hatch
#

never try to do stuff you mean?

marble lance
#

in other pvp games ive seen it called ladder anxiety

#

it's just a general fear of playing against other players

#

so you try to make any excuses possible to avoid it

#

the easiest excuse to make in summoners war is "i'm not ready, i want to build my teams perfectly before i start, i want to have the right monsters, i want to have things skilled up, blah blah blah"

slim hatch
#

I see, you saw me through again

marble lance
#

it's not you in this case

#

i mean anyone asking "help me build a team for rta, i want to start playing rta"

#

is suffering from this problem

#

the correct answer and move for all of these people is to literally just hit find match

#

the game gives you support monsters to start with so you dont even have to rune anything. but of course you can just throw some random runes on your own monsters too

#

no one ever is ever truly ready or has things prepped perfectly

#

it's a constant learning and evolving process

#

and you will never evolve or learn from just theorycrafting on swop or having people answer your hna questions

#

you only do so from gaining real experience playing

#

if you play some and enjoy rta, now you have better questions to ask about deviling stuff

slim hatch
#

I get the idea

#

ok I'll start rta around that core

marble lance
#

you can say - well i really like my leo for rta, now i think devil priority for him is higher even though he doesn't need it as much for siege

slim hatch
#

Idk yet tbh

#

like my main focus is still siege and I have sth that may want skillups, say dominic, aaliyah as general bruisers

#

or maybe dupe galleon, vigor that need skillups

slim hatch
#

I've updated my swarfarm, right now I have 3 choices for siege in mind: dominic, aaliyah and bellenus

marble lance
#

can you link your swarfarm again

#

also hard to keep track because you have 2 accounts

slim hatch
#

sure

#

I'll drop that alt

marble lance
#

how many devils do you have

slim hatch
#

for now, 1

#

I've just finished my Adriana

marble lance
#

i have you less than 10 there really is no point in wasting time thinking about it

slim hatch
#

haha ok then

slim hatch
#

When should I use grinds? Right when I get a rune I want to keep?

brisk swift
#

That's honestly up to you and what type of rune it is

There's a lot of conflicting opinions on this but realistically speaking you shouldn't be keeping a rune unless you plan on using it
But there are inevitably going to be a lot of violent runes you want to max purple (your best ones especially) or even fish for legend on
Same to an extent with swift but less so

#

I think if it isn't a super common set you kinda want to just use up your grinds, you are going to get so many more blade grinds than violent grinds in terms of needs

#

At the same time some people say grinding a rune and having it sit in your inventory is pointless and that will inevitably happen

#

My personal rule is if a rune that isn't super main set drops that I know I will keep/use then I instantly all in my grinds for max purple
If it's main set (vio really is the main one here swift to some extent) then I wait to find where I want to use it generally, unless I know 150% this rune is going to get used soon

#

I think it's different if we are talking about legend grinds too though

slim hatch
#

tysm, I get the idea

slim hatch
#

what does this part really mean?

#

I don't get it

#

or maybe my english is too bad to understand this?

#

does this mean PvE can just have some minimum rolls, while PvP need our rolls to be higher than average? So you'd want a blue crit rune to roll 18+ crit instead of just 12-17?

granite dragon
#

think probsz was going more for, pve runes can be not as efficient as long as they get you the stats you need

while pvp runes tend to want to be more efficient (less dead stats/quality rolls)

slim hatch
granite dragon
#

a more general term, also this was writen pre-ah release

slim hatch
#

so that's a yes?

#

and what does that nem<energy ariel part mean?

granite dragon
#

no idea

slim hatch
#

fuck it

#

our rune guide is messy as fuck

#

it's time to clean

primal salmon
# slim hatch

I'm just going to give my opinion here. I think he's basically saying "you put a nem on your Ariel, but you lose out on so many stats from a well rolled Energy rune that he's actually weaker than he could be"

#

I think it's a small provision towards the "sets over stats" in PvP. As in it isn't worth losing 50k HP just to get Nem set on Ariel.

#

But that's just how I'm reading it. I could be way off. Just my 2 cents. 🙂

marble lance
#

you're not way off in terms of that's what it meant, but at the same time fam has a good point

#

it's not a good guide

#

i don't agree with it and never did

slim hatch
#

is there something I do wrong with swop?

surreal iron
#

it counts khali speed buff, put any other mon on same base instead of her

slim hatch
merry star
#

Just use swgt if you’re tuning with speed buff

surreal iron
slim hatch
surreal iron
#

Oh if you mean something like double snipe for siege then that's true

#

No idea if swop would work for tuning mihyang adriana sonia for example, since i started using swgt i haven't tried much with swop

marble lance
#

swop cannot be used to tune adriana teams

#

there is a bug with kahli because of her spd buff

#

you should still use swop to tune praline teams

#

just replace kahli with some other monster that has same base spd

slim hatch
#

Got it

#

What abt bernard?

marble lance
#

bernard is fine

slim hatch
#

Tks

slim hatch
#

is there a safe number I'd aim for, like 45k without +elemental?

marble lance
#

no

slim hatch
# marble lance no

U mean I'm still supposed to tune them with my booster regarless how much damage I do

lime osprey
slim hatch
#

How do I prioritize my fastet swift set

#

Should I let my siege def Orion get the fastet one and swap it to my offense booster when I need them?

marble lance
#

yes

slim hatch
slim hatch
#

@marble lance I can't find the bruiser AO options in #1048719420870107227

#

Do you mean in the ISA part like Khmun Imesity Copper Dozer part?

ripe idol
#

There are bruiser ao options in ?ao

slim hatch
#

Others are premium cleave options

ripe idol
slim hatch
#

Seems like jx forgot abt them

#

Certain bruise teams like Feng x2 Leo can even match some cleave

marble lance
#

i didn't forget anything, they're not good

#

i talked about bruisering in isa. i also mention how it's valid if you want to auto swords during midweek or something

marble lance
slim hatch
#

@marble lance can you correct how I understand the jamire lhomie +1 team?

#

from what I see, we have swift lhomie get first turn and use s3, +1 nuke, jamire reset, lhomie s3 into +1 nuke again, then jamire help cleanup the rest

#

yak told me I can nuke 3 time by having jamire > nuke > lhomie instead, but is that viable?

marble lance
#

both of you are dumb just look up a video

marble lance
#

this video is correct

slim hatch
#

so we have jamire s1 > lhomie s3 > nuke > jamire s3 > lhomie s3 into s2 (idk why s2 here not first turn) > nuke

marble lance
#

i mean im not referring to any 1 specific video, just telling you to go google a guide

#

this is a common standard team

marble lance
#

and think through it

#

you can do it i believe in you

slim hatch
#

this way we have a non buffed nuke into buffed nuke

slim hatch
slim hatch
marble lance
#

are you sure

#

explain it to me

slim hatch
#

ok teacher

#

so the turn order is jamire > homie > julie

#

jamire and homie have to outspd the enemy, so we have jamire do random shit, homie fill atb and buff julie spd, now julie is the fastest monster on the battlefield and pew pew

#

then jamire s3 > homie s3 because we are 100 ATB and they just move first due to faster spd, but now homie spd buff herself and she is the fastest mons (faster than julie) then use s2 on julie, julie do stronger pew pew

marble lance
#

very good

slim hatch
marble lance
#

jamire does not do random shit though

#

jamire is runed as a dd

slim hatch
#

why didn't the guy in the vid use s2 first?

marble lance
#

don't poke something not on will you may trigger nem

marble lance
slim hatch
marble lance
#

yea i also meant he does good damage too

#

really important since your first nuke is without atk buff

#

its not very common to use aoe dd here like julie or lushesn

#

because of the threat of nem

#

much more common to use single target like taru or sonia

#

or if you're rich, ian is bis

marble lance
#

the whole point is that you get 1 non atk buffed jamire hit, then 1 non atk buffed DD hit, 1 atk buffed DD hit, then 1 final atk buffed jamire hit ALL before any enemy monster moves even once

slim hatch
#

I see

#

about targeting, are we hunting for non swift def?

#

I don't think we can outspd anything with 24 lead+101 lhomie base

marble lance
#

then dont build this comp

slim hatch
#

you mean this comp is used to outspd

marble lance
#

of course. all good defs have a speed threat

#

all cleaves have to be able to outspeed some swift threat

slim hatch
#

it's partially the reason why I can't write the cleave teams guide

marble lance
#

that's what i've been telling you

#

you don't need to tell it back to me

slim hatch
marble lance
#

homie is

#

jamire is easy with his high base spd

slim hatch
#

and we are trying to outspd some really slow comp maybe like a clara comp

marble lance
#

yea the most common things you'll see this against are clara

#

or for example seara jeogun theo

slim hatch
#

it's also too risky to deal with zen+19

marble lance
#

i dont know what is an example of zen + 19

slim hatch
#

if for some reason some guy run khmun+zen+1

marble lance
#

yea but thats not good

slim hatch
#

and yeah you're right

#

chandra is 24 lead

marble lance
#

another big thing you can use this on is tian lang

#

there's no atb boosts on this team

#

people dont really run TL without spd lead anymore at higher levels because its so easy to get around him these days

#

but you'll probably see a lot of TL with no spd lead at lower levels

slim hatch
#

can you tell me one real thing about all these swift booster things? I always think non-Dova Lushen, Tiana and Praline can't really race things and only be used on slower bruiser def, and they are fine to just be like 300 cmb SPD and be done with it?

#

while others cleave must be on fastest swift to race?

marble lance
#

i just swap around fastest swift set

#

i dont have anything that's "fine to be like 300 cmb spd"

#

the only time its relevant to use slower swift set is in wgb

#

and in wgb you can almost always find something less spd threatening to use a slower swift set against

#

also beyond all of this

#

you're in a guild

#

a lot of the time you can get info from a guildie that hit the same def before you

#

both siege and wgb

slim hatch
marble lance
#

yes

#

farm giants

slim hatch
#

beside just farm better rune and keep focus on crit rate and spd while scavenging for atk and crit dmg?

slim hatch
slim hatch
brisk swift
#

You have to provide context

#

When you are hitting a defense that realistically speaking doesn't have a significant speed threat, specifically if you aren't using covenant/Claire then using your fastest set is not necessarily best
When you're getting started in siege you should just focus on runing up snipe comps, which you are still in the process of. You shouldn't be constantly rune swapping. It's unrealistic for a new player to be able to tune every single snipe unit they have to their top set on swift while having enough damage

#

If you aren't pushing super high siege then you should just rune your units and not minmax everything. If you don't have enough good runes, go farm more

#

You can get jx opinion on it but I literally piloted summoner1722

#

Everything was runed

#

Swapping top swift set around is a good habit to get into but it shouldn't be necessary at the level you are playing at

slim hatch
#

I get it like this: if I'm in a low guild like mid g2 sub g3 one then I don't need fastest swift on slow booster and can just be like 300 cmb spd, while in high g3 even Teon should be able to race

brisk swift
#

Uh

#

I don't like this example

#

With teon you should probably just swap top set

#

He's slow as fuck and him having more speed does not reduce damage on the unit being boosted

slim hatch
#

So how abt Praline

brisk swift
#

You can do it however you want to
I opted to rune multiple snipes rather than rune swapping every time
That was also when mana was a really dry resource for players trying to push hard in siege without strong accounts

#

Mana also isn't needed to test anymore which is a blessing

#

Both ways are fine. If you are planning on switching DD sets too you're fine. Depends on how much mana you want to use. I would opt to not rune swap where you don't have to until you start pushing hard.

slim hatch
#

Idk how you can swapp snipes set, when every monster has different stat

brisk swift
#

People have different ways

#

You can set up a few sets. One of the sets should be fast enough to make it so your slowest unit you will use with praline will be tuned to praline and just accept that some of the snipe units you use will have slightly more speed than is necessary

#

That's probably the lowest effort option

slim hatch
#

Noted, it's better to waste some spd than using a weak sniper

#

Tysm

marble lance
#

summoner1722 is like over 2 years old by now

#

the game changes, there's been multiple buffs to mana, as well as QOL life changes to make swapping easier

#

not to mention the constant power creep as the game gets older

#

there's always going to be more and more OP accounts with op runes sitting in super low siege

#

swift sets on boosters is easy to swap around, dd sets you're right is much trickier

#

there are some monsters where you can do it if they have same awakenings, for example cov and claire both have cr awakening can be swapped. you can just overtune speed by a bit but otherwise they are same

#

kahli does not have cr awakening so you wouldn't swap a set between kahli and cov

#

in the end though you gotta just play and figure out what you're losing to and what you need

brisk swift
#

Like I'm sure if I made a new account today I'd be able to do it fine but newer players make a lot of mistakes I feel

#

That's all that concerns me

marble lance
#

swapping just your top swift set around should be fine, don't swap more than that

#

from a lot of these siege threads recently

#

people getting outsped seems to be a common loss reason

brisk swift
#

Ahhh

#

I see

And I can consider using a same fast nuker set between similar stats nukers

#

Noted

slim hatch
#

I've been looking around for a template of Odin def

#

Comon template seems like Odin buffer spd/res lead bruiser

#

For buffer it seems like Adriana is bis, while Bastet and Riley is the same

#

Tesa and Khmun seems like 2 most common bruisers, also see Kinki mentioned

brisk swift
#

Kinki on defense sucks now

#

Odin Riley tesa still will catch griefers honestly

#

Clara/Carcano Adriana Odin is good if you have adriana

slim hatch
#

As for runing I think it's

#

Sth like Fatal/Will or Rage/Will on Odin, on tanky spd/cd/hp build as odin doesn't gain much from Vio

#

Then just have Shield somewhere, this allow Odin to start with 2 stack, get 3 stack from Adriana and kaboom someone

#

Is it correct?

#

Btw is Adriana team>Riley=Bastet?

#

how are you going to update beginner pvp if you haven't even read it closely to begin with

slim hatch
#

I'm not going to anymore, and if my memory serve me right I don't see specific Odin def guide there

#

We get a mention of Tesa Riley Odin and that's it

brisk swift
#

This is one of the first things mentioned in beginner pvp

#

When talking about building defenses

#

And no Riley does not = bastet in this format, Odin Riley tesa is infinitely better than bastet

#

Would reread through the building defenses section again

#

This is not Odin specific

#

And don't run Odin bastet tesa, that is a really bad defense

slim hatch

brisk swift
#

I had just said it's not Odin specific

#

It's OK, I will help you

#

All defenses should be built on violent with very little exception

#

For beginners

#

You really want to just rune everything violent especially

#

But really people just rune shit violent forever

#

Odin should be on violent. Building him on rage is really bad, or really anything off violent

#

Keep in mind with Odin Riley tesa, Odin doesn't get 5 stacks immediately, and that is OK

#

This defense has been quite thoroughly solved at this point but

#

That's not something that most people who play siege know how to deal with still

#

Or if they do

#

They only know like

#

Mephisto Shren Kona lol

slim hatch
#

but I said this after rechecking, and sorry didn't know you talk abt runing

#

I really read beginner pvp even more than my actual university lectures

#

and we already know each other for a while, I'm still a decent helper and ofc I won't say shit like "vigor is runed on swift"

#

my concern is just pretty simple "odin doesn't have a real skill to cycle, he has a 8 turn cd passive, so maybe I can rune him non vio"

#

and I had to ask you to confirm

brisk swift
#

That's ok

#

What do you mean he has an 8 turn CD passive?

slim hatch
brisk swift
#

His revive? That isn't too relevant in regards to violent

#

Oh but he can ignore defense any time he has 5 stacks

#

You know this right?

#

And it scales regardless

#

Like he is still ignoring 45% of defense on 3 stacks no matter what

slim hatch
#

so 2 weaker vio nuke>1 strong rage nuke

#

tks for confirming

brisk swift
#

Absolutely

slim hatch
#

I just don't like how jx seems kinda harsh about this matter

brisk swift
#

Jx is always harsh

#

It's not a bad thing

slim hatch
#

or if he want to be harsh, reply to the trash message he meant to

brisk swift
#

He is very stern in the way he teaches

slim hatch
#

so I can locate where I fuck up

brisk swift
#

I understand

#

The part that talks about how important violent runes are

#

It can't be over emphasized

#

When I teach people about defense I repeat it multiple times

#

It has to be violent

#

Despair is okay too for some monsters, and again swift is an option for some too. But that isn't the way generally, you want to add that chance that a monster just takes 5 turns in a row and you win

#

I've had losses like this before

#

If that was runed off violent

#

I can never lose this way

slim hatch
#

ah this is basic def knowlege, I understood it thoroughly

brisk swift
#

Maybe you misunderstand Odin specifically here

#

Especially in the context of this defense

#

He doesn't get 5 stacks immediately

slim hatch
#

yeah, now I know why

marble lance
#

i'm only harsh if you ask bad or lazy questions or confidently say wrong things

#

i call people out if they deserved to be called out, doesn't matter who they are

#

i think i'm pretty fair about this, because at the same time i give credit where it's due. i often compliment people when they ask good questions

#

there's this big part in siege def portion of beginner pvp that says you should only be using vio

#

it clearly says everything should be on vio, and then clearly mentions the exceptions

#

so when you propose something else, especially an extremely meta unit like odin to not be on vio, it makes me feel bad because it means you've either not read this

#

or you're just ignoring it and thinking you're special or it doesn't apply to you or i didn't consider any common exceptions and i myself wrote a lazy bad guide

#

there are ways for you to ask questions

#

in a way that doesn't make me feel bad

#

and to show that you have read and considere dthis

#

for example you could ask "i know the guide says everythink should be on vio, but it doesn't seem like odin benefits that much from vio?"

#

acknowledging that you've utilized your resources and done your research first will help a lot

#

when discussing these things with me

slim hatch
#

but you're right, I could have word it better

#

I'm sorry

#

your teaching mindset remind me of my dad, and I guess you're about my dad age

marble lance
#

probably not just a teaching mindset but could be a generational difference between how we communicate online

#

i was always taught to think before i speak, and i treat chatting on discord not really the same as a 1 on 1 conversation that you may have with a friend in real time in real life

#

at least in a channel like this

#

i often double check things before i say anything, i'll edit my messages several times before pressing enter, i'll reread and edit them if i make mistakes

#

i don't say anything if i'm not confident in my answer

#

and i guess younger generations treat these online mediums a bit more casually just like if you were talking with a friend in real life

#

so maybe i just have different expectations

slim hatch
#

like is a teacher a really good one if he can't be a decent father figure?

marble lance
#

i'm not actually trying to be a father figure or teacher here

#

i like discussing the game with people who have a similar mindset as me

#

that is all

slim hatch
#

well to me you are, but maybe yeah we have different expectations

marble lance
#

i'm not here to seek validation or approval from others, even if they are some sort of mentee figure

slim hatch
#

thanks for your help as usual

#

about runing clara adriana odin, I'll assume the optimal route is vio/will on odin then vio/shield on either clara and adriana?

#

this way turn odin can start nuking with 5 stack right from the start

#

@marble lance

marble lance
#

yes

slim hatch
#

got it

slim hatch
#

7 types of premium offenses to note so far

#

Oh I also stumbled upon a message from you about mihyang chimera cleave, so that we can snipe a target twice

#

I spectaculate that we nuke with chimera s2 first, then nuke the revived weaker version with mihyang and start 3v2 things, am I right?

slim hatch
#

@marble lance I want to ask about swift set

#

for siege def the swift booster/stripper will be runed on fastest swift and swap to booster if needed

#

but what about arena def one like triton?

marble lance
#

what about it?

slim hatch
#

we can't swap between adriana and triton right?

#

should triton or adriana be on 2nd fastest swift?

marble lance
#

i put my fastest swift on def for rush, i dont use it for offense
