Cant beat this stage, its zaiross 2x akroma,
vero (l) fran loren spectra mav, all have 120k+ ehp, 180+ speed with correct turn order i get to boss stage and the akroma just two hit my supports even though theyre at 30k health and seem to take absolutely no damage?
unsure what to do here.
swift arrow
show stats on veromos, he might be lacking def. your fran also needs some atk to help with healing
you want to eventually rune vero that he's going to have 1500 def total in prep for raids 5 later on, so the more def he can get the better
noramlly you would use spectra to nuke the boss with his s2 because it deals hp% based damage
so it shouldn't be that slow
you can consider shannon instead of loren to provide def buff
rapid kernel
im at that inbetween stage atm where my mons are kinda sacrificing damage to meet the recommended stats because i cant get any grindstones or gems yet i cant beat the rifts
swift arrow
you should prioritize 100% cr and mentioned ehp whenever possible. damage should be last
veromos is not a damage dealer so it's fine to make him much tankier while being on cdmg/100% cr build
rapid kernel
swift arrow
uh
rapid kernel
like honestly im having trouble even getting 100% crit damage while maintaining the speed and ehp suggested
swift arrow
yeah quick glance at veromos he is runed completely wrong
veromos does not need any atk
he only needs cd% and 100% cr
his s2 scales off max hp% on monsters that get stronger with more cdmg and cr%
not attack
swift arrow
yes
rapid kernel
i had no idea
swift arrow
both are in sense of bruisers that they just need spd, ehp, 100% cr
attack should go to something like kro, raoq, etc.
toa monsters' hp can get absurdly high so you will just cheese the waves by using veromos and spectra s2 skills that both scale off max hp
rapid kernel
man i need access to rage runes really badly
swift arrow
you don't
you can finish pve with veromos on broken runes
it doesn't really matter that much
if anything, you should be using blade and energy runes to help you meet hp and cr reqs, then you can devote more subs on def/speed/whatever to help you meet 200 combat speed, 1500 def, etc.
the 1500 def part is not required but it's really helpful to have veromos be much tankier
rapid kernel
atm im struggling to hit 100% crit most of the time but ill start looking for different runes that dont include attack thanks for the info
swift arrow
no worries
don't forget to check ?toa to make sure your other monsters are meeting needed stats and 45% acc
and your fran could still use more attack to help with healing, since her s2/s3 scales off attack
shannon def buff helps your veromos to tank akroma since dark vs light
swift arrow
atm im struggling to hit 100% crit most of the time but ill start looking for di...
remember that you have 15% base crit, you have 6 runes so on avg you only need ~14% cr
rapid kernel
getting the combo is hard atm
swift arrow
with just 1 blade set, you now only need 12% cr each
rapid kernel
the crit the speed the cd all at the same time
swift arrow
yeah
rapid kernel
all my runes are shit like +5 cr
swift arrow
might just be an issue on how you keep and roll runes sometimes, you don't want to have particularly high expectations
rapid kernel
maybe yeah, at least i know tank runes with crit damage etc are good for someone now
swift arrow
yup
rapid kernel
how should loren be built, literrally just speed accuracy and then tanky ?
brazen fern
yes
swift arrow
you build her for ?sfah so can check the stats from there
should work the same. she's normally the fastest
rapid kernel
for mons like kro etc, after 100% cr which is more beneficial to stack attack or crit damage? or a somewhat mixture of both
rapid kernel
alright perfect, im basically just gonna have to start again runewise aha
thanks for the info
swift arrow
for units that benefit from something like hp based damage such as whomie, CD matters more
