[faint pivot]

I'm running Fell Bullet I need ALL the EGO resources

That shit is Not Suboptimal™

(I'm being genuine I'm really stingy when I wanna bring FB to floors 10 or 15)

[atomic steeple]

I hope higher level index members get more bonuses from crits and prescripts

[faint pivot]

I feel like something that'd fuck is like

An Index Proxy ID that spreads Poise Count as like

[ebon forge]

use starlight

[faint pivot]

Fundamentally levelling the playing field

[ebon forge]

deadass serious about that

[faint pivot]

I do

I'm still stingy

[ebon forge]

money = more ego resource

[worthy haven]

Surely blue sand has to have like a once per turn clause or some sort of inhibiation right

[faint pivot]

You can buy EGO resources with Starlight?

[faint pivot]

Honestly most probable

Halving the success of EVERY single coin sounds...catastrophic for bosses

[ebon forge]

no for gifts

like

[faint pivot]

But who knows maybe the boss node for this canto is all 5 nursefathers at the same time

[faint pivot]

Not Enough (perceptually)

[ebon forge]

the only reason i ran out of EGO resources on f15

[faint pivot]

(I have yet to ran out)

[ebon forge]

was cuz i was running triple cost

and like

4 EGO per turn

[worthy haven]

I am seeing more and more now why they didnt give KoD a gloom s2 or s3 lmao

[faint pivot]

Wait why

Her negative Counter is Gloom and that goes pretty hard

Only Negative Unbreakable skill that doesn't lower itself for every Crack

[worthy haven]

Imagine KoD s2 or s3 if gloom with us now having sheut fracture

it only buffy kods weakest skills which def good choice

[faint pivot]

I feel like

KoD having a Sloth s3 and her being the only other one benefitting from Sheut Fracture alone would hurt less than uh

Both LMD and SL Sang S3 conveniently benefitting from this

Also: Deluge deals Gloom damage. Cool!

[worthy haven]

fair fair

[neat cedar]

god Deluge with Sheut

if they even survive getting to shat pount

[worthy haven]

I will def run SL over spicebush

[faint pivot]

I don't even have Spicebush

But considering all the coins going around on my prospective team, I may be benefitting from sticking to SL Sang either way

[worthy haven]

if the giving us an udjat outis that does shit liek that I really hope the canto is gonna be ruthless

[unique bane]

https://www.rxddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/1pyi0qn/20251231_kst_new_identity_preview/

[faint pivot]

Honestly

What I really like about these two is the direction they're going

Specifically: away from "oooh damage" in a new and interesting way

[faint pivot]

Bit late lass, but I appreciate the share regardless

[gentle mulch]

EX Clear Objective: Clear within 30 turns

[faint pivot]

W Outis, MagiDon, Weath, and the rest of R Corp.: Finally, a worthy opponent!

[gentle mulch]

my swapinator team is going to reach full potential

[faint pivot]

My Fell Bullet team is finally gonna run out of ammo!

[ebon forge]

wait fell bullet- oh

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[neat cedar]

True actual tank ID

5 protection at all times

is my bet

[worthy haven]

Its gonna be interesting to see if that matters for next canto

[gentle mulch]

do we have enough for like

a fun all tank ids comp

[worthy haven]

cause tankiness so far has (in my opinion) been nice to have but like not really nessecary in most if not all regards. It hasnt like super matter

[gentle mulch]

like wu sang, udjat outis, kodya technically?????, maost technically????????

pregor technically????

nshu when she feels like it??

REAP is a tank in that a Thing That Is Everything is also a tank

[neat cedar]

it will make Odjat

an amazing solo id

[gentle mulch]

KCorp hong lu...

uhhh

W Heathcliff..? I think?

[neat cedar]

ye

W-heath is a bruiser type tank

[faint pivot]

Let's see

Pregor and K Hong reign at the top of the list

Shi Fau & Weath follow closely after to make 4

[gentle mulch]

shi faust is a tank???

[faint pivot]

Ignores Stagger while bow is drawn

[gentle mulch]

oh right people actually draw the bow

[worthy haven]

my favourite tank is gredgar. Best dodge tank

[gentle mulch]

in that case molar ish works too to make 6

[faint pivot]

I mean if we just wanna make a Team of Tanks then Wu Sang, Zwei Ish, and KoDya complete the set

[gentle mulch]

oh yeah the actual tank ish

[faint pivot]

Molar Ish ignores Stagger?

[gentle mulch]

dodgetank

[faint pivot]

If we're including dodge tanks then we have more than enough iirc

[gentle mulch]

maybe even enough for 12

[faint pivot]

Everyone has at least one tank or dodge tank, even

Yeah lmao

[gentle mulch]

i would say something like molar ish and cinq outis count

[faint pivot]

Does Caposault count if we rid his bullets ASAP

Cinq Sinclair is probs his only tank-like ID

[gentle mulch]

he's not a tank he just happens to really want to play his gimmick

zwei sinclair

[faint pivot]

Ah right

[faint pivot]

I'm talking about his 3rd phase, the burnt-out ammo-less one that tackles people to divert attention

[gentle mulch]

ahh

maybe? i guess that counts

kinda seems more like a I HAVE NO PURPOSE ANYMOREEE type phase

guess that makes lcesang a tank

tanks are fucking weird in limbus

[faint pivot]

Imho it feels a whole lot more cohesive than the other non-reloading ammo IDs when they're out of ammo

I'd go as far to say more cohesive than some s1 IDs, even

[faint pivot]

Doesn't he have aggro?

[gentle mulch]

yeah, it took em a while for them to figure out hey maybe IDs should do something when they dont have ammo

[faint pivot]

I always took pal as a tank tbh

[gentle mulch]

despite being a tank for some reason he never gets hit in human encounters

DESPITE MY BEST EFFORTS

[faint pivot]

I'm too late to have experienced it but I'm guessing stuff didn't stretch on long enough back then for it to matter much

[faint pivot]

If it's of any solace, aggro only diverts targeting in focused fights 😔

[gentle mulch]

that and i think they just

yk

well

they still are having some growing pains

when it comes to design, though it's so much better nowadays

[faint pivot]

Agreed

They're handling things about as well as one could with a gacha though, imho

What with taking a path seldom tread

[gentle mulch]

if they didnt i probably wouldnt be playing

season 7 was their uh

foray into unbreakables

season 8 into longer fight designs and doubling down on like

HEY YOU SHOULD BE LOSING SINNERS

hopefully season 9 they just start shooting sinners

[worthy haven]

time to make 800 faust and outis shards to can i make em easy peasy

[gentle mulch]

like gunning them down so people take the hint

[neat cedar]

and yet people still cling to their Fluid sacs

and life

https://tenor.com/view/omniman-invincible-pathetic-gif-27565015

[gentle mulch]

LOOK AT WHAT THEY NEED TO MIMIC A FRACTION OF OUR POWER [exploding sinners on purpose and throwing EGOs on enemies like candy]

[faint pivot]

Thumb Madame gonna make unnfered Lei Heng look like Ruina Philip

[worthy haven]

😌

[gentle mulch]

i love my swapinator team. go my billion fucking attacks

[gentle mulch]

Thumb Madame that has like. a breech loaded rifle blade. One Bullet. One Kill. Reload

[faint pivot]

I'm ngl part of me is expecting one of her swords to serve as a rocket

[gentle mulch]

gunlancesword

[faint pivot]

Nah just straight up

She pulls the trigger as she lobs the thing and it propels itself like a projectile

For what else would that seemingly regular sword be for?

[gentle mulch]

some castlevania shit

[worthy haven]

Oh shit I didn't even realize level cap imcrease

Thank god I have enough exp tickets

[stoic fjord]

POISE SINKING LET'S FUCKING GO THAT'S A DOUBLE STATUS

[faint pivot]

FR????

[stoic fjord]

Mariachi Clair, Maid Ishmael, and Index Fausr have completed us...

[faint pivot]

🙏 🙏 🙏

[stoic fjord]

We can run the shittiest double status team yet

It's so fucking peak

[faint pivot]

InFau will make up for it all on her own, trust

[stoic fjord]

Lynchpins of our team, one of the worst IDs of all time and a kinda mid 00

[stoic fjord]

True

I'm ngl I think we're dropping Butler Outis

It was a good run for her but uh

It's just fucking over for her I'm sorry

Dawg Bad End Ryoshu is gonna make Hong Lord look like a B-tier ID 😭

Dude it doesn't fucking matter this is on sinking the enemies aren't clashing above like, five

[atomic steeple]

Bad end ryoshu gonna have a fate mechanic, I bet

[stoic fjord]

I can't even lie I feel like they could give her season 2 numbers and she'd still be a major competitor to Butler Outis because like

It's sinking

The enemies clash like shit too

[worthy haven]

Hope everyone has enough tickets to up those teams to 60

[stoic fjord]

I spent all of mine yesterday

I'm boned

[stoic fjord]

Anyways like holy shit if anyone not already on the sinking team gets an Udjat ID, we have our seventh

[worthy haven]

Eureka for being a resource goblin

[stoic fjord]

Like it's just decided her numbers can be mediocre and she'll still probably make it on the team

It's so fucked

[atomic steeple]

Every finger in this season might have fate/karma mechanics

Might be the spider's house thing

[worthy haven]

Got 800 shards for outis and Faust so I can get em soonaswell 😌

Seems also the new ticket lux opens already via act 1

[stoic fjord]

Butler Outis found shot dead in the T Corp Backstreets

Also probably not too relevant but like

Sinking actually just has tremor support tossed in now

Fuck your SP, fuck your stagger thresholds, we're kicking your shit in and taking everything you have

[split beacon]

I hate you little Index girl, we’re taking everything you own, give me your phone

[tiny cave]

ehh

echoes is still echoes

and blue shard's count is probably gonna be +1 lmao

that said udjat outis almost certainly inflicts better count than butler otherwise even if all her count numbers are 1

[cloud wadi]

Finally a good sinking id for fausty

[stoic fjord]

I wonder if/when we'll get to see Sonya fight

[split beacon]

Sucks that Udjat Outis is competing with Butler Outis and her manor wifi status

[worthy haven]

I assume both butler will still see use for cheese strats like Vs emptiness in rr1

[split beacon]

Hope we get a LCA Udjat ID for
a sinner who isn’t already a Sinking team permanent feature tbh

[atomic steeple]

Sinclair!

Dias could find him after his family dies

And take him in

[split beacon]

Sinclair or Meursault would be good

[cloud wadi]

Sleut fracture gives reduced clash power anyways

Sheut

[atomic steeple]

Meursault would be a funny contrast for vespa, whom dias Does Not Care About

[cloud wadi]

So she’s probably an upgrade?

[atomic steeple]

I wanna see dias be nosy about sinclair's relationship with demian
And have Kromer disappeared

[cloud wadi]

Dias probably will have absolutely no care for anyone she deems unimportant yes

[atomic steeple]

Kromer gets fucking jumped

[mystic ermine]

Ayyeee

there it is

[split beacon]

You mean Kromer Dias lol

[worthy haven]

I think hundo percent upgrade ye

She just does so much

[mystic ermine]

So, what's my most red resistant nugget...

[atomic steeple]

Kromer is too different from Dias

[worthy haven]

Sleut DMG increase, gloom fragility, gloom resist down

Also tanky as fuck and enemy coin manipulation

[gentle mulch]

ohhh my god outis why do you get the best IDs

Josephine
Olga
Udjat

[worthy haven]

Eh

Wait

You mean character wise

[gentle mulch]

i mean I'm irrationally obsessed with her yes

[worthy haven]

I think it is her first like standout mega wow ID

[mystic ermine]

haaii helloo

[faint pivot]

Diverting my efforts towards boxes seeing how the next lux is in part 1

[faint pivot]

Puppydogpal!

Red just like me :D

Unironically very thankful to O-06-20

Despite the paranoia it caused on first extract it has been very very helpful

[mystic ermine]

oop

Oop

[faint pivot]

Manager! Manager! Manager!

Oh oops

Wrong context, and too late anyways

[faint pivot]

IS THAT TH

[mystic ermine]

lovely image, though

[faint pivot]

Very delicious, I believe @atomic steeple would say the same and she has good taste

[atomic steeple]

Thanks

Image a bit confusing though

Is it nothing there exploding someone?

[faint pivot]

Nothing There turned some poor soul into nothing

[faint pivot]

Essentially yeah, but with its blade arm

[atomic steeple]

Ultimate sacrifice for the company

[faint pivot]

I love how the gore ultimately still gets through the cognition filter

Of course an amnesiac is gonna stomach halls filed with burnt corpses fine, they're Them!

[mystic ermine]

hm.-.. soooonnn....

[faint pivot]

These EGO have saved me multiple times. Get them.

Literally save the day

[faint pivot]

Also wdym soon it's right there!

[mystic ermine]

...no P.E boxes

[faint pivot]

-# Looks like the Red Mist to me :p

[mystic ermine]

horrendous looking nugget

[faint pivot]

They look fiiine

Grats on the early EGO gift btw

[stoic fjord]

Sinclair who blows Kromer's shit smoove off with that rifle and then goes back to LCA-ing it up

[mystic ermine]

"It's right behind me, isn't it"

[stoic fjord]

I fucking hate Today's Shy Look's E.G.O gift

it looks so fucking wrong

[faint pivot]

Sounds about right

Thankfully you can toggle their visibility off

But when nuggets of my friends refuse to cooperate some days I just dress them up absurd

[mystic ermine]

I like it because it looks so
disfiguring

[stoic fjord]

I say this but i mean it positively

[stoic fjord]

I'm 10 pulling for outis

not because I have restraint but because I'm broke as shit and really want her

TWELVE GIGABYTES??? FOR WHAT????

DID THEY DROP THE NEW SEASON EARLY OR SOME SHIT????

[lime swan]

Preloading stuff

[stoic fjord]

inb4 second wave of leaks

[lime swan]

Although sometimes 8 gigs drop over nothing

Spaghetti code

[stoic fjord]

I love my fuckass indie game

[lime swan]

A and a half studio

Not quite AA

[stoic fjord]

Aa stupid

*studio

wow I am s=so good at tpying

I'm gon to fucking tweak holy shit maybe i need to take my med

s

[lime swan]

We get yjere

Phone screens suck

[stoic fjord]

oh no I'm on my PC keyboard lma\

this feels like my equivalent of a money spread

[atomic steeple]

I should update my supports

On that note, anyone got vampire rodya with sanguine desire?

[stoic fjord]

incredible that Middle Meursault's skill that benefits most from envy res also fucks your chain completely

[cloud wadi]

Yeah they tend to preload some stuff before a really big update

[split beacon]

leaks inc

for sure for sure for real for real

Canto 7: “It Gets Worse”

[stoic fjord]

rose hunter is right after right

I'd check myself but also I'd rather fucking eat a human being than do the canto 7 dungeon again right now

[gentle mulch]

canto 7, 8, and im betting 9 too

[stoic fjord]

okay so apparently

he's using Mariachi Sinclair

20 levels under

as an evade tank

and it's just fucking working

it just works

[gentle mulch]

my fucking goat mariachi sinclair (i have never bet on this man in my life)

thats hilarious

[fickle crown]

Tbf he has a base 16 roll

I think

No it's a base 15 evade sorry

But 60 defense level lmao

[bronze zephyr]

Insane

[cloud wadi]

Guess it’s a given that index Faust is a bit lackluster

Since she’s merely a proselyte

[fickle crown]

Just saw LCA Outis's kit

Holy shit she'll be insane tremor support

[stoic fjord]

tremor with a side of "enemy doesn't get to clash anymore" or smth

hrmmm

is tremor sinking dual status possible yet?

Hanafish/Molarish, LCA Outis...

Spicebush doesn't count for gifts

[fickle crown]

Remember

Yi Sang has access to bygone days

As a Zayin

Same with Ishmael, who also has Christmas Nightmare

[stoic fjord]

right but I meant with regards to MD

where it's the skills specifically, E.G.O doesn't count there

[fickle crown]

Ahh ok

[cloud wadi]

Wait a minute

[fickle crown]

Also Spicebush does count towards it iirc

[cloud wadi]

What do you mean she has infinite reload lmao

[stoic fjord]

does he inflict any tremor?

[fickle crown]

Self inflicted tremor is still tremor

[stoic fjord]

no

the gifts specify

[fickle crown]

Oh

[stoic fjord]

it has to be tremor inflicted on an enemy

Spicebush doesn't work, I've tested this before iirc

[lean fjord]

it's possible it'll be limited, but I think it's fine for it to be unlimited

she only uses ammo on S3 anyway

[neat cedar]

very likely limited

they never put the full limits in the previews

people though Gun Lu was gonna be foever reload but it was just 1/encounter

now granted

i wouldn't be aurprised that due.to Odjat using multiple hits of ammo

and Dias being filthy stinking rich

she might have like

a double reload

[stoic fjord]

I imagine it'll be functionally unlimited with regards to most content

[neat cedar]

I mean ye, same with Gun Lu

ur pribably not running out unless ur in late stage MDE

[tiny cave]

SL Sang has infinite reloads but he doesn’t use real bullets

[atomic steeple]

He craps depression bullet

[faint pivot]

Doesn't FF have infinite ammo

[split beacon]

FF being…?

[faint pivot]

Oh mb - Firefist

[cloud wadi]

Firefist do have unlimited reloads

But also not a real ammo id

Yan id for walpurgisnacht when

[atomic steeple]

Yan meursault

[cloud wadi]

Yan id which will allow us to distribute and edit our own prescripts

Does udjat have the ability to mess with the Flow

[dusty sigil]

I feel like the limbus community is this close to coming to the conclusion “Rodion shouldn’t even get non-factional IDs anymore because she’s not special”

[cosmic gorge]

terminal conclusion of "rodya's not special" memes

the longer i stay in online spaces the more disillusioned i am

[bronze zephyr]

😭

Me when the Liu has infinitely more autonomy than the Heishou

I’m exaggerating but

[dusty sigil]

I mean, they kinda do lol

The only thing binding you to the Liu is like, you’ll be fired if you don’t do your job

Which yah

Is a normal thing for a job

[cosmic gorge]

fired

fire d

but yes

[dusty sigil]

+2

[cosmic gorge]

one is mercenary work another is biopunk horror

[cloud wadi]

It kinda seems like Liu have more work than heishous though

Heishous are high quality work force

Best used conservatively

Liu are mercenaries so you are supposed to use them expendably

[ebon forge]

rodya NEEDS a part two right

[atomic steeple]

No
She dies old and unfilfilled

[ebon forge]

lol

[cloud wadi]

More likely young and unfulfilled

Given casualty rate with the snakes around hierarch selection times

[neat cedar]

My copium is Yan Rodya ID

maximize the despair

I feel rodya has a good mix of both spite and desire to do good to pull the Yan move

[faint pivot]

Are the Heishou even paid

[cloud wadi]

i imagine they get paid

they are wing workers after all

they probably don't have a lot to spend it on

but they probably get paid wing worker level salary

[faint pivot]

Makes me wonder what made Don penniless

[stoic fjord]

spends all her money on more coats

[faint pivot]

Fair enough

[stoic fjord]

RodYan would actually be kind of peak

I hope we get RodYan next LoR walp

[dusty sigil]

That would be sick yah

[neat cedar]

I don't think the heishou are paid

like

the heishou are tools

[atomic steeple]

Yan after the estrogen

[neat cedar]

theybare not people

[dusty sigil]

Also yah I think the heishous are just slaves

They’re talked about like slaves

[neat cedar]

The only way out is death or being bought

[cloud wadi]

she's not penniless

[dusty sigil]

Like, you don’t pay the hunting dog you employee

[cloud wadi]

she's just wearing so much clothing that she couldn't reach her wallet

[dusty sigil]

Even if it’s a very good hunting dog

[atomic steeple]

Bottom surgery

[crimson spindle]

heishous are modeled on old style debt slavery

[atomic steeple]

Prescript: fem the messenger

[crimson spindle]

the only way out is for someone to "buy you out"

[crimson spindle]

you will never earn enough on your own to afford your own freedom

[stoic fjord]

I think the Heishous probably have their needs provided for under servitude but I don't think they're exactly get wages

[faint pivot]

Oh roflmao

[faint pivot]

Faust at the very least has her own money

[cloud wadi]

the sheep have it rough

still freezing cold in a hot summer's day

[stoic fjord]

okay yeah true

they do purchase things

[faint pivot]

Sheep share a common room

[cloud wadi]

i mean there's gotta be some incentive to get people to join the program right

[atomic steeple]

They sleep together

[faint pivot]

It's probably similar to bankruptancy except it clears more than your debt

Rodya was plucked from the backstreets iirc

[atomic steeple]

Headcanon: prescripts always use the right pronouns

Even before the person cracks their egg

[stoic fjord]

I assume it like, clears debt, maybe criminal record, potential to be part of the wing rather than the backstreets, etc.

[faint pivot]

Hm Heathcliff words it like it's...something to aspire for?

Being a Heishou equats being meritous according to his hazy memories

He says it as if he both chose to be Heishou and part of the You branch

[stoic fjord]

I mean with the latter it could be in part him playing to his own percieved strengths

[crimson spindle]

it's meritous servitude

you are now a servant of greatness

[stoic fjord]

anyways I'm gonna try the KoDya solo again now that I vaguely know more

[faint pivot]

...about that

[faint pivot]

I guess the chickens are beholden to the Hierarch but what about the others?

[stoic fjord]

alright I guess they do just fucking starve

[crimson spindle]

they're servants of the various great families

only the great families can afford the heishous

[faint pivot]

Ah right

Yeah I forgot about their effective exclusivity

[crimson spindle]

compared to some rando on the streets, that's merit

you are one of the chosen warriors of the powerful

but it's also being a slave

[faint pivot]

There's gotta be something different about H Corp. augmentations cause food depravation sounds awfully common

[crimson spindle]

sealed in servitude by dependency on boluses and a worth that makes you too expensive to ever let go

[faint pivot]

Like ||Daiyu|| shrugs off "starve for a week"

As a kid!

So there must be something we don't see

She isn't even Heishou just a bolus user

[crimson spindle]

i mean, starving for a week is survivable by a regular-ass human

[faint pivot]

Fair

Also I just checked - her traits say nothing about a bolus

[crimson spindle]

the ol' canard is the rule of 3

[faint pivot]

Considering Spring Cultivation she may very well just be doing All That through technique alone

[crimson spindle]

3 minutes without air, 3 hours without shelter (in extremis), 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food

[faint pivot]

TIL

[crimson spindle]

assuming reasonable health before

[stoic fjord]

how's this look for a KoDya solo

[stoic fjord]

Lost to Knight of Despair

taking a break and maybe trying again tomorrow

[faint pivot]

-# May I interest you with Lobotomy Corporation

[stoic fjord]

I don't need something even more masochistic

[faint pivot]

Ruina then?

Perhaps I should change this bit up

[stoic fjord]

be fucking for real with me

[faint pivot]

I'll take that as agreement

[stoic fjord]

the only things I can do rn are Ozma on Chesed's floor, Xiao, Hokma's floor, or Binah's floor

[gentle mulch]

ozma is a dick

[stoic fjord]

Ozma is satanic, Xiao is the next fucking Red Mist, Hokma I expect bullshit from, and Binah is genuinely just fucking cruel

[gentle mulch]

all of these fights are kinda annoying lol

[faint pivot]

Ozma is puppets right

[gentle mulch]

i believe so

[faint pivot]

Almost spoiled the realization, phew

[gentle mulch]

i cheesed the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck out of ozma

[faint pivot]

You say this like that's not the proper way

You know what fighting Ozma like you do other fights gets you?

-# This is definitely totally really not an excuse to bring this image up again but

[gentle mulch]

i aint ever played a game proper

no clue what you'd do to tackle it normally

[stoic fjord]

Ozma is genuinely just CBT

[stoic fjord]

if this happened to me I'd fucking blow my shit smoove off

[gentle mulch]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[faint pivot]

I'm saying what you deem as cheese has to be the intended way

[gentle mulch]

it's cheese. i am the mouse

[faint pivot]

Why greetings The Mouse, a pleasure meeting thee

[gentle mulch]

chesed to meet you

[lean fjord]

lmaooooo

Ozma isn't too bad I feel

just figure out which Jack is the real one, get your nugget back

hit her a bunch

[dusty sigil]

I didn’t have any issues with her

[stoic fjord]

I'm going to obliterate you

[dusty sigil]

[lean fjord]

Ozma is not an abno I usually need to adjust builds for at all, so she's automatically less annoying than a bunch of others in my mind

[stoic fjord]

I just hate the gimmick because it seems the position of each doll switches every turn

so it's just fucked

[lean fjord]

it shouldn't

you just need to check which one it is when you hit them, they each have a status

[gentle mulch]

im so fucking excited

when the update drops does that mean the stages are released or is this a preload?

[stoic fjord]

this one is a preload I think

tomorrow is the actual update

[gentle mulch]

haa of course it is

sigh

meursauly

tu

[fluid whale]

alright, I've secured all the seasonal stuff, I have 1370 boxes, and this is the status of my shards, what do I grab? WAW egos I'm missing, IDs from season 4, general fare IDs, stuff to do mirror dungeon missions?

[ebon forge]

so, you have all the other EGOs?

[fluid whale]

negative, it's mostly scattershot stuff I've pulled rather than sharded

[ebon forge]

icic

which sinclair IDs are you missing?

[fluid whale]

Would have to check, I know I have middle and cinq missing at least

and devyat

[ebon forge]

for reference

pull middle sinclair imo

sinclair doesnt have many "essencial" EGO other than the BP EGO

as for ishamael?

[fluid whale]

I have hex nail and totb but nothing else for egos, and I was right as to what IDs I am missing, I have the others

for ish I have everything but zwei and liu for IDs, have tidal and ABS (and death maggot) for EGOs and miss everything else

[ebon forge]

imo, middle, lantern

for sinclair

because 9:2 is a negative non-coro, impeding is too, lifetime... does not like counters, hex nail is just ok

[bronze zephyr]

21 hours left..

[ebon forge]

christmas nightmare if you wanna optimize hanaish, zwei solos ricardo (she's amazing as a tremor tank), liu if you need a burn ID (she's not super necessary for a burn team, but good to have, i bet more thumb IDs will fill her slots up)

[tiny cave]

bygone days or capote for fudamael (christmas nightmare is not shardable until next season)
lantern or cavernous wailing for skincare
rime shank for rodion (if you already have it, fourth match)
might as well get chef greg with the greg shards

[ebon forge]

oh yeah nightmare is locked i forgot

[fluid whale]

4th match is that good on rodion?

I also have 1300 boxes, remember, I can get basically any 4 things in addition to using up my shards if I wanted

...6 things if my math is actually correct

[cosmic gorge]

Uhh

Is Binds Heath in the shop

[fluid whale]

yeah, it's s4 from the pass

basically I got all the event IDs from when I've been playing and haven't gotten any event IDs from before then, so I am missing the event stuff from season 1-4

[tiny cave]

3 wrath fragile

big atk weight

[fluid whale]

that is true, that is big

DAWN OF THE FINAL DAY

-20(-ish) Hours Remain-

In 12 hours

I want udjat Outis for new years kjh

[ebon forge]

season 7 starts <t:1767150000:R>

[atomic steeple]

I had a limbus dream

Dante and sinners were friendly with another group

Led by some guy with a few stitches on his face and the name Chrollo Lucilfer (from hunter x hunter)
The sinners go to a lace that's like, a trash processing facility but also similar to guts and stomach, but mechanical

And it's a trap by the friendly group

Who are working for some enemy and are a bunch of apocalyptic weirdos. Chrollo guy can pull his stitches to change his face into a more intimidating form, which he does while watching from surveillance

Dante seemingly dies in a compactor room alongside some guy the sinners fought, who was a candidate for the bus team but was discarded for the current sinners

then the sinners die in another room

But surprise, dante managed to make something to stop themself from being compacted, alongside the reject guy, whom dante could revive

They stare at the surveillance camera the traitors are seeing from while their clock shifts for some reason

Then go to the other room to revive the sinners and equip identites based on people who use mech suits/prosthetics made out of junk

Also I think actual allies pop up as reinforcements

[cosmic gorge]

Funky

You recall if the bonus sinner had any book they were based on?

[atomic steeple]

No

@glad fable

[stoic fjord]

12 hours

enough time for me to finish my KoDya solo

[minor gust]

hello pm fans when is canto coming? tom or today

[quaint cliff]

11 hours from now

[atomic steeple]

So saw a good argument for king of greed meursault

[mystic ermine]

Ah... the evening before Canto 9...

My fingertips and chest are all prickly at the thought
Hehehe....

It will be
Peam

[atomic steeple]

considering how kog repressed desires and went wild with them later
While meursault was an hedonist who distorted and seems to keep himsellf under tight control

[stoic fjord]

KoDya is actually a fairly easy solo so far

I haven't hit MDE yet but I haven't struggled at all with infinity

[stoic fjord]

nevermind i fucking suck I died to floor 13

[lean fjord]

Surprised you even got that far tbh

[stoic fjord]

I'm upset I didn't make it further

cuz like

people have beaten 15/50 with base LCB heathcliff

and here I am failing with KoDya, broken-ass walp ID who does infinite damage and tanks infinite damage

[eternal gull]

I dont keep up with limbus news

who's the next canto for

[stoic fjord]

Ryoshu

from the trailer we saw, it's starting with a raid on what appears to be an Limbus Company facility, possibly by the Index or Ring?

[eternal gull]

https://tenor.com/view/limbus-company-gif-501081621266469291

[stoic fjord]

anyways

canto 9 predictions

I'm going all in on LCA Bamboo-Hatted Kim with Dimension Shredder E.G.O gear

it's out of genuinely nowhere

it has no basis in reality beyond Dimension Shredder fitting Kim

it's not gonna happen

but

all in on LCA team captain bamboo-hatted kim

I don't need proof

I don't need evidence

I just need to believe

that we will see him claim bones with an energy sword

[ebon forge]

Honestly Dias is so rich she could probably manage that somehow

[ebon forge]

https://www.rxddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/1pzjnox/outis_zayin_and_yuri_heng_misg1111/

🙏 BLESS 🙏

praying for thumb yuri

[stoic fjord]

Yuri Heng is picking up steam so fucking fast for some reason

[gentle mulch]

we can do it like firefist gregor

we can make thumb yuri happen

[atomic steeple]

We're getting close
Canto 9 soon

[ebon forge]

hot as fuck, for one

[stoic fjord]

True

If it happened once it can happen again

Though also that was an ID for an irrelevant character

Rather than something major for the story

[stoic fjord]

True!

I love a woman who could actually just kill me

WAIT

HOLD ON

[stoic fjord]

She's missing an eye... bad end ID...

[atomic steeple]

First cis woman to need mtf treatment

[stoic fjord]

6 hours left

if we actually get Yuri Heng

I will do a duo MDE run (or whatever equivalent we get) with Yaust and Caposault

and I will additionally try to set up the stipulation that if they are not both alive at the end of each battle, I have to retry the stage

FUCK I CAN'T PLAY FOR 6 HOURS?????

what are they doing in those server rooms bruh.....

do we get MD7 as soon as season 7 drops?

[split beacon]

No

[stoic fjord]

fuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkkkkkkkkk

wait no that means MD6 stays a little longer right

[split beacon]

Yes

[stoic fjord]

yesssssssss

[fluid whale]

yeah you get to complete the md6 stuff until md7 drops

i decided to just take my sinking team for a walk on godmode and got through 2 superbosses and floor 13 before I got booted, shame I wasn't able to finish it out

[bronze zephyr]

Ah I should try that sometime

[fluid whale]

ironically enough, it's so much tougher if you don't get superbosses

because if you get them early, the coin power just lets you keep up the dominating without having to use EGO much at all

[bronze zephyr]

Yeah lol

[lean fjord]

it's usually a couple weeks later

[fluid whale]

I feel like we got 5 and 6 like, a month or two after the full Canto drop

[stoic fjord]

I still don't understand the E.G.O spam strat ngl

not like

it doesn't work, it demonstrably does

but how do you clash

and if it's not clashing

how are you putting out unopposed attacks?

so i've just found it more effective to brute force with pure power

[split beacon]

EGO rocks

Sorry let me be clear

You use the EGO sin rock gifts

If you have enough of them some EGOs gain stupid amounts of power

[eternal berry]

EGOs that qualify for multiple rocks can clash pretty handidly into high floors

[ebon forge]

Outism

[ebon forge]

Big fucking damage.

[stoic fjord]

I mean I've done that, but like, with Fell Bullet, even with both poise and bleed, it gets like 48 max

and Heathcliff's Fell Bullet, which I think counts for 3, was around the same I think

which, yeah, teth, but also I'm triple stacking here

in general I think it's pretty much just that i lack the strong E.G.O

[ebon forge]

who do i draw

[bronze zephyr]

Ryo for her canto?

[ebon forge]

true

[tiny cave]

Binah

[fickle crown]

Super late, however

In your defense, those same people had about a dozen failed runs before making it that far

You're just seeing the best result

[ebon forge]

i need a song for this

lemme think

[stoic fjord]

yeah that's fair

still, I was carried by KoDya being a beast, I could not do like. a Lintgor solo or something

[atomic steeple]

Here's virgil ina notehr adaptation of the Divine Comedy

[stoic fjord]

I want the LCB crew to meet the people from this game just for fun

Fuck it I have time ti burn and can't work up the motivation or discipline for hw

Time for LoR

If i ragequit I'll work until limbus drop

I've now realized

ozma is not bullshit

I'm just a fucking brick and for some reason went in with a full thumb team the first time

and thus could not tell which jack took what

[atomic steeple]

You are there? Still stuck at pinnochio, alriune

I might just grab my yesod floor build and transfer there

[stoic fjord]

okay how the fuck do I do ozma

[atomic steeple]

Dress as dorothy

[stoic fjord]

what

[atomic steeple]

Joke that they were close
So yoy could disguise as dorothy to trick her

In the books

[stoic fjord]

ohhhh ok

hrm

[atomic steeple]

Dorothy and ozma wrre super close

History would call them best friends

[stoic fjord]

OHHHH WAIT

THE FUCKING

THE JACKS I FORGOT HOW THYE WORK

IT'S ONLY ONE THAT'S REAL

I'M A BRICK

[atomic steeple]

Dante who revives others to fight and die meets dante who fights and dies herself while using the power of others

[stoic fjord]

yeah okay so my problem is that I genuinely cannot outclash the jacks with oblivion

[ebon forge]

ruina?

[stoic fjord]

yup

trying to do ozma because I don't want to deal with Xiao

Ozma is arguably infinitely worse

as it would turn out

big bird is incredibly easy

if you are not a complete fucking brick

and can understand basic english

okay freak

I was about to say "Punishing Bird is easy"

and then I proceeded to fuck up and softlock a loss state

so uh

we do that all over again

fuuuuuck this thing is tedious as shit

[tiny cave]

Wife material

[stoic fjord]

neeeeeever fucking mind

I forgot

that it does six trillion damage if you do attack it

but there doesn't seem to be another way to do damage to punishing bird....

wait

unopposed attacks. exist

ah whatever let's be productive I'm getting annoyed at LoR again

[bronze zephyr]

2 Hours lefttt

[tiny cave]

Is this the one with the evade dice

If so you can break an evade dice by clashing with a defense or evade and it won’t damage you iirc

[stoic fjord]

no

it has the 3 dice 2-4 attacks

but if you clash them they gain 50 power

[tiny cave]

Isn’t that the gimmick one

You just gotta kill the three other birdos and then the fight is over

[stoic fjord]

yeah

I did

but then I fucked up and used the evades on the bird itself immediately

instead of like

doing it against punishment

[tiny cave]

It’s also only +50 vs offensive dice iirc?

[stoic fjord]

the one you're meant to do it against

[tiny cave]

Or is it +50 vs all dice

[stoic fjord]

offensive dice

it's just that I didn't do unopposed it's nothing major

[worthy haven]

hmm

prob gonna play canto tomorrow

i am so tired
