w faust

not multicrack

[faint pivot]

Yes

[gentle mulch]

you can probably drop her

take less than the max amount of units and get double slots for your best units

[faint pivot]

Rep Emitter being Blunt, AoE and SP heal is cool but yeah she's more of a liability here, I feel

[gentle mulch]

since there's a preamble with the mooks, you can build up sanity and stay safe for you to build the extra slots

FAshu with double slots is like. scary

[stoic fjord]

Mhm

Genuinely insane shit

[faint pivot]

Ricardo does sanity damage

[stoic fjord]

Kill everyone and evade or kill everyone even harder

[gentle mulch]

Beesault isnt bad to also double slot but tbh, dieci could be good too

[faint pivot]

Nvm it's all on-hit

You should be good ousting Waust for double-slotting

[gentle mulch]

should be yeah

my summary for recommendations is:
Drop at least one of the following units:

• W Faust
• LCB Heath
  Set FAshu first in the deployment order
  Set Beesault or dieci in the second deployment order depending on which you like more
  ALSO BRING A SUPPORT ZWEI ISHMAEL IF YOU CAN

Canto 9 spoiler

Wait why is it a video

[faint pivot]

Video that lasts for 1 frame lmao

[faint pivot]

The hands too

[eternal gull]

brilliance

[fickle crown]

Y'know

Thinking on it

Middle Ish and Middle Outis will actually be a really good pair up with the upcoming thumb IDs when we get those

[stoic fjord]

Elaborate?

[fickle crown]

Given the Thumb HoS IDs are gonna be Tremburn both of the Middle HoS IDs are gonna get coin power out of the deal and won't interfere by tremor bursting too much

Plus no chance of accidentally trading scorch for something else via amplitude conversion

[keen palm]

Yeah but unless they're envy res

[fickle crown]

Also 6 burn is unironically easy to get and it's possible(?) Middle Outis will be able to force Middle Ishmael into triggering her thermal blades on demand

Also not sure if Thumbcliff is gonna get envy skills but it's possible

[dusty sigil]

From @ landobristly

[lean fjord]

They're gonna have some Envy for sure I think

[fickle crown]

Also given this mechanic with Kira I'm betting on Outis being able to do the same thing

[lean fjord]

Though I don't remember what actual Valencia's affinities are

[fickle crown]

Because we know for a fact that the Nursefather and Apprentice IDs get benefits for being paired in a fight

[glad fable]

…huh, every house of spiders ID has at least one skill that does either burn or bleed except Don

[dusty sigil]

I feel like Heathcliff will be Envy Sloth Lust Wrath and Rodion will be Gluttony Pride Lust Wrath Gloom

[keen palm]

She's Pride, Lust, Sloth, and Wrath

[lean fjord]

Huh, i expected some envy in there but guess not

[dusty sigil]

I feel like she’ll have gluttony for Rodion’s specific hang ups of wanting more

[fickle crown]

Also I think something supporting the idea that Thumb Heath is gonna have envy is the fact he's getting the KQE EGO

[keen palm]

Lucio is Lust, Sloth, Wrath

[fickle crown]

Like the season EGO is usually made with a matching season ID in mind

[dusty sigil]

Envy is guaranteed because Heath imo

[fickle crown]

So I do think Thumb Heath will have envy somewhere in his kit

[dusty sigil]

I know Kurokumo broke the trend but like

That’s a relatively well adjusted Heath

This… will not be

[fickle crown]

Also Rodion having envy in her thumb kit would make sense imo

[bronze zephyr]

I figured KQE was just made for wcliff

[fickle crown]

Gluttony/Envy/Wrath maybe?

Sloth counter

Gloom evade

[fickle crown]

Maybe but we should also consider the fact that Rodion for instance got Hex Nail and then she got the Dulcinea ID too

[dusty sigil]

I feel like she’ll have pride instead of envy

Rodion isn’t actually very associated with Envy

Despite her envying Sonya

[fickle crown]

Oh true

Wait she does have envy in some kits iirc

Rosespanner and T-Corp both have envy skills

Plus an envy skill as Dulcineon

And she has hex nail

Though it is interesting how her base EGO is fatal to envy

[dusty sigil]

I mean yah she has some she’s not absent envy

I’m more saying she’s more associated with pride then envy

[fickle crown]

Yeahhh

True

[dusty sigil]

Since her envy is derived from her thinking she naturally deserves what others have

Rather then it just being envious of what others have

She’s special after all

[fickle crown]

Also thinking on it, if you're willing to risk it

And knowing Middle Outis is probably gonna have like 2 envy skills

It's probably not gonna be hard to trigger Kiramael's thermal blades if you run her in an undermanned team

Or just throw in Middle Don and Middle Sinclair to fill the gap

[dusty sigil]

Bleed Burn will be real

Queen Bee Meursault is also there

Ensuring you have burn count

[fickle crown]

If you're a weird bastard you could also sub out Middle Sinclair with Dawnclair

Who is

Kind of a dubious choice but his burn application is fucking bonkers

Knowing how Laev is probably gonna work on Outis though, it's likely that Yi Sang might accidentally push his therapy onto her instead of him

[vagrant dove]

i was like "what the fuck did pip do" then I remembered he wanted to be a landlord in the city

[fickle crown]

Stubb is functionally dead

[stoic fjord]

Pip may be more morally disgusting than Ahab

[vagrant dove]

Truke...

[dusty sigil]

Saw a video saying that Rime Shank Rodion is about her backstory from her community turning on her and betraying her after she murdered the tax collector

Despite that not being what happened

People really need to actually replay canto 2 before talking about Rodion I swear

[vagrant dove]

???

like

they do know the middle showed up and murdered everyone

right

like that was the point. that's why rodya feels so guilty

[dusty sigil]

I don’t know

The way they describe the backstory Rodion killed the taxpayer to incite a revolt, which was also not her motivation

It failed and then her community turned her in

[vagrant dove]

I genuinely have to ask if this person played canto 2

Or if they're just making up like "Rodion was betrayed and locked in the hyperbolic time chamber for 1000 years" AUs

[dusty sigil]

LOL

[atomic steeple]

gripclair upscale but he is a triple keyword unit using tremor bleed and burn, doing mostly tremor hemorrhage but being able to entangle scorch

[dusty sigil]

Horrifying

[vagrant dove]

Anyways rodya related: begging for more crumbs in the upcoming interavllo

How similar is achieving Royalty to achieving EGO

[neat cedar]

I am not super caught up but

I think the two concepts are prob pretty different

[keen palm]

Very different

[neat cedar]

if i remember, Royalty is acheving like a mastery and command over the world

EGO is about mastery over just the self

[keen palm]

Royalty is a transcendence of your universal constraints yeah

I did find out what the best representation of EGO in media is

Outside of PJM

[neat cedar]

is it that homestuck thing

Don't like that

[cosmic gorge]

Does it exist yet though

Or is the evil machine just showing its hand

[keen palm]

It doesnt

[cosmic gorge]

Damn

[cloud wadi]

Philosophically I think both are attainder of some kind of ubermensch state

But royalty is still very different from ego yeah

EGOtists have more in similarity to demiurges if you ask me

[keen palm]

I think the difference largely lies in that Royalty assumes a single universal truth

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

[keen palm]

while EGO is imposing your own delusions upon reality

[cloud wadi]

Ego is staring the universe that tells you you are wrong in the face and declaring it’s actually the universe that is wrong

It’s inherently kinda confrontational path of struggle

Royalty we are told is opposite of that

[keen palm]

It's also very emblematic of the two universes

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

[keen palm]

PJM seems to think determinism isn't really a Thing

[cloud wadi]

City encourages conformity

K6bd encourages strife and struggle

I guess there’s that sense too

There’s still elements of interesting things with determinism in pmoon’s stories too

Certainly not hard determinism like k6bd

But more like the morrowind or deltarune concept

Where certain events that are fated to happen will happen

But circumstances behind those events are up in the air

nostalgia of trying to relive the joy of discovery incarnate

also the quiet laughing in the background. as if remembering the old times and such

[ebon forge]

in terms of design, Don
in terms of gameplay, Lu
in terms of intent of design, Ishy

[gentle mulch]

like genuinely one of the best saddest parts of the game

because this wave of nostalgia washes over you with the track and it touches on such an emotional part of you

and then you snuff it out and stamp it to the ground as the eye weeps again

Are there any true burn/bleed IDs other than Gripclair?

MEURSAULT

what about burn/poise?

There’s Cinq Don, and there’s Captain Ish

Actually I just need 1 more poise ID I think

Since I have 4/5

Then tremor has 5/5

Burn is also 4/5

Bleed is 7/5

And poise is 4/5

I could run Maid Ryo since bleed is over budget but the issue is I’d like to have N Ryo for the funny combo when Sang inevitably kills someone

And Fullstop is occupied by my Sinking team for the Index combo

I COULD instead make this team bleed tremor but ew no

So core members for burn bleed poise -1 burn (aka bleed poise) are:

• N Sinclair
• Hornetsault
• Ahabmael
• N Sang
• Shi / BL Faust
• Cinq Don

I desperately want to make the bleed burn poise + bonus tremor team

[unique bane]

i could not make it through the first like 30 seconds of hero without crying
the last part also got me
ironically the middle part affected me way less, idk why

[faint pivot]

If I may hazard a guess, it's cause the switch-up 'round the middle is something the canto lets dwell

[keen palm]

I think a big part of it is the emotional resonance of seeing the Ferris Wheel light up

and then the joust

There's not really a big emotional moment with the middle

[faint pivot]

The big emotional moments round the middle for me were exploding to Bleed

And I actively fought to not resonate with the message of the switch-up

[keen palm]

Also idk I think

[vagrant dove]

canto 7 is like

Why is it that some were given the role of villain?

That Sancho learned "Bleed Deluge" from Dongbaek

Or Spicebush Yi Sang

Like this could very well just be "press the advantage and Mulch this sicko" in two different forms but since she's drawing from memories of ||Bari's fighting style|| to form hers I like imagining she took this from Dongbaek just cause it's that neat

I mean theres no way to avoid this sounding like gloating

I did get stuck for 3 months on donbaek though.

nah dongbaek was on some demon shit

still kind of funny to me that we genuinely just ||kill the fanghunt office fixers|| in canto 7

(early spoilers, nothing major)

[stoic fjord]

Dante has NEVER heard of non-lethal tactics they just go "yeah fucking kill that guy for me"

[atomic steeple]

Honestly, the scene was crowded

Sinners, dongrang, shrenne, an entire office of fixers

Makes sense to cut down a bit, dante was getting claustrophobic

More seriously, the sinners generally respond to lethal force with lethal force

Ammo ID solos are scary if their ammo is limited

[signal kindle]

In C7 I think I basically ended up with a dead team and only manager Quixote left

[stoic fjord]

Even Udjat Outis gets scary at MDE levels, sometimes you get close to using all 80 rounds as batshit as that might seem

Udjat has so much ammo, it's crazy

[stoic fjord]

Canto 8 and 9 spoilers ig

||Lei Heng vs. Prime Valencina, who wins?||

[bronze zephyr]

That’s insane

[stoic fjord]

Tbf she consumes like 4 ammo per S3

So sometimes if I fuck up I don't have the ammo

Or

Theoretically I could be short

It's yet to actually happen

[gentle mulch]

what counts as Prime in this case

[stoic fjord]

Peak of her prowess and strength

[bronze zephyr]

Valencia has relic advantage

||there's a theoretical point in time where Valencina at peak strength would be outranked by Lei Heng who could go "okay now kill yourself" and she'd have no choice but to do it||

The wiki doesn't explain the Blood status you get from nosferatu abno page

[eternal gull]

do I have to r*ad

[ebon forge]

only 4 ids left to level!

(other than ring fau / hong who im sharding)

[wild mango]

https://youtu.be/sjJpw5GInCY?si=KHrLkDuyOnOdkhPZ

TLDR: ultranum thinks that the kk duo isn’t replaceable just yet, so it’s kk duo, corporist duo+ring sang, and manager don + princesault

[fluid whale]

Yes, there's statuses you would rather not have, I think they still have the thing in phase 1 where you have to shred off the rupture count before you get potency?

[gentle mulch]

+ring sang

i guess he can stay

[wild mango]

(Continuing with ultranum’s opinion) Rodion is the weakest bloodfiend and you don’t need sanguine desire cos of fausts Iron Maiden form, so drop rodi for general use

[fluid whale]

Also just to be clear, who are you fighting?

[eternal gull]

Jia Qiu

I forgot his name

[gentle mulch]

oh

[atomic steeple]

Okay so. There's a gimmick to keep in mind

[wild mango]

Having a third ring id greatly boosts the duo, but running ring Outis as a fourth isn’t worth it

[atomic steeple]

Do you reach the final phase?

[gentle mulch]

so what you wanna do is actually get hit when your count is high and potency is low. as well as the reverse. but if both are high something has gone wrong

and also you gotta keep the Sinner of the Canto ready to clash specific skills

[gentle mulch]

guess that makes sense

[eternal gull]

Oh and for reference

if its level 55 its in the initial team

if it isnt then its rienforcements

[eternal berry]

can you drill down to why you're getting your ass kicked in any meaningful detail

looks to me like you should be able to handle the clashes pretty fine

[gentle mulch]

you heathcliff is probably like blowing up turn 3

[atomic steeple]

Is the bonus damage based on bleed potency not worth it?

[gentle mulch]

well unless you get the heal which we're so back

[eternal gull]

yeah

he's balling in the court on 1 health rn

[gentle mulch]

my rec is to double slot someone else if he dies too quickly for you to get value

[eternal gull]

if needs be I could switch honglu to lord of all heishou

I just wanted to avoid the text changes (I like lore)

[gentle mulch]

lordlu is also fragile

but kinda not

it's weird

[eternal gull]

hm?

[gentle mulch]

if heathcliff isn't pulling his weight, drop him from the roster and field six sinners

[eternal berry]

use fewer than - yeah that

[atomic steeple]

From what I remember
You gotta get rid of the heishous, while beating his skill mao cut them down
His unbreakables can help drain your rupture
At final phase, you have hong lu clash and win against his big lust skill

[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) minus coin ring? 📎

[cloud wadi]

Future proofing probably

[atomic steeple]

Honestly, what kinda mentality difference is there between sinking units and minus coin units

[cloud wadi]

Wait no

[atomic steeple]

Well

[cloud wadi]

Negative coin egos exist

So it’ll apply to those

[atomic steeple]

What does it mean to be minus coin

[cloud wadi]

Since it doesn’t say it only applies to base skills

[worthy haven]

Faust has an egregiously misspelled version of it on her Zweihander

[eternal gull]

when the coin flips heads, it reduces the overall power

I think

?

[atomic steeple]

I meant in lore

[eternal gull]

ohh

I think - atleast for Nclair - its upholding his convictions, causing him to waiver with his attacks

so maybe it represents that the attack is considered by the one doing it as unjust or evil, and that upholding this conviction, and thus staying your hand, is overall weakening the attack

[lean fjord]

it kind of means you are more effective when despairing and a little insane

it's kinda tricky because minus coins are just a bit of a pain to make work mechanically

so we just won't see it used very often since it has weird gameplay implications

[bronze zephyr]

I forget how many minus coin IDs there are, NClair, Sunshower, Wildhunt Heath, Kodya, QoH Don, uh

[lean fjord]

well Huntcliff only has it on one skill

but yeah that's mostly it

[bronze zephyr]

Still

[atomic steeple]

Didn't even know huntcliff had a minus coin skill

[bronze zephyr]

Mhm, in Horse Mode

[lean fjord]

Mourn Lament and Despair

his S3-2

[bronze zephyr]

Lament mourn and despair

Ye

[lean fjord]

I would probably argue that thematically, Huntcliff could have been a minus ID in general

but they didn't do that because it would have made his design much weirder

[bronze zephyr]

The majority of his coins are positive but he rewards sp management so you can get a proper LMD nuke

[bronze zephyr]

Not necessarily

[atomic steeple]

Is there a way to manage gripclair?

[bronze zephyr]

His defensive mainly? And N Faust

[keen palm]

Liu Sang?

[bronze zephyr]

He’s outdated but still works

Mm you could do that yeah

[atomic steeple]

Kept hearing of how he keeps corroding

[bronze zephyr]

Having him win clashes every once in a while helps

if you have rusty coin and use a single coin ego he can, that’s the only scenario in MD where he’s corroded for me

It’s not That bad esp w whistles imo, just don’t use too many s3s

[wild mango]

Idk if this opinion is wack or not? Or if he’s right here in terms of the meta? Dropping princess rodi seems kinda wild to me

[bronze zephyr]

Dropping princess is kinda wild yeah

[atomic steeple]

Lament mourn despair

[bronze zephyr]

From what I’ve heard princess is better than manager in non bloodfiend heavy teams but I could be wrong

Sanguine desire is

Big

[atomic steeple]

THe ring duo has good count

[wild mango]

But, I at least think it’s good that the bleed team has more options now and that it’s very diverse

[bronze zephyr]

Sometimes limbustubers are wrong

Yea I’m a big fan

[wild mango]

This is why he’s saying to drop her

[bronze zephyr]

I’m excited for non Heishou rupture comps god

Rodion is great support

[atomic steeple]

I think I'll run the ultranum team but with rodion in place of yi sang
I like the enhanced guard

[stoic fjord]

this will happen genuinely never

[bronze zephyr]

Cries.

[stoic fjord]

well not never but like

[bronze zephyr]

I’ll make it happen

[stoic fjord]

my guess is sometime in purgatorio

[wild mango]

(I’m just stating his opinion, to me at least he seems the most knowledgeable about the meta?)

[bronze zephyr]

CRIES

[wild mango]

Yeah

[atomic steeple]

Hoping each archetype gets someone who can rotate them like lord hong lu
So we can just swap and use units

[stoic fjord]

because, y'know. season 6 was rupture season, on top of spring cultivation and nocturnal sweeping still having bokgaks coming up

[wild mango]

Understandable, part of why ring sang is there is to accelerate the corporist duo

[stoic fjord]

I'm kinda iffy on this, I kind of like most teams having opportunity cost and having some level of consideration on who to leave and who to take

to an extent, at least

[bronze zephyr]

Seesaw hand, rotating is cool on paper but in practice w lord lu

[stoic fjord]

or, in theory

[bronze zephyr]

Yeah

[stoic fjord]

since

right now most teams don't actually have enough IDs

besides rupture

[wild mango]

What I don’t exactly like about lord hong Lu is him invading other teams

[stoic fjord]

and I guess sinking but that's moreso which IDs and not like. "I have too many possible seventh and sixth slots"

[bronze zephyr]

In practice lord lu having a swap mechanic is kinda what led to mono heishou

[wild mango]

Since the heishou are THAT GOOD

[stoic fjord]

I feel that his presence in other teams are overstated

[bronze zephyr]

I only use him in rupture, I don’t use maost in tremor, it’s wild

[wild mango]

I’ll be less iffy about it once he’s shareable again

[stoic fjord]

the main (and in practice basically only) one is Burn

[bronze zephyr]

Mm also true

[wild mango]

It’s like

[bronze zephyr]

Tremor a bit too

[atomic steeple]

He carves the path of a lord

[bronze zephyr]

W Wei and Maost

[stoic fjord]

and even then there's considerations to be had on why not to do that, it's a niche pick

[wild mango]

Oh a heishou is good here, might as well run lord hong Lu…

Yaknow

[stoic fjord]

true, though I think replacing three units is kind of a bit much

especially when tremor has probably better units in practice

[bronze zephyr]

Agreed, I don’t do it

But some do

[stoic fjord]

fair

[atomic steeple]

Also curious to see more assist attacks

Could work for tremor

[stoic fjord]

losing one of the other sinclairs (more likely thumb sinclair) and having to take up two slots for the duo with no backline to swap the heishou in and out

[wild mango]

We just need a very fast Faust that does tremor

[atomic steeple]

Contract breaker chaser Oufi Faust

Or another n corp faust, Taboo hunter or inquisitor, with tremor bleed

[stoic fjord]

also Hong Lu himself not exactly having much for burn, I think overall his presence in other teams is less "Hong Lord is insane and busted" (though he is very, very strong) and moreso "Tremor is in a heavily E.G.O dependent state" and "Burn is so low maintainence it's crazy"

[stoic fjord]

or just T Corp

since

they have accelerated time shit

[bronze zephyr]

Oufi would be cool

T Corp already has 3 IDs

Heath is all alone

If she gave him viability that would be neat

[stoic fjord]

you were so beautiful... please... do not leave me here alone in the dark... come back to my arms... please, Pilgrimage of Compassion E.G.O skill buffing E.G.O gifts...

[atomic steeple]

Tremor decay is pretty good to add to the everlasting combo

[wild mango]

We might be getting a fifth ring id in the intervallo

[bronze zephyr]

We don’t know which finger we’ll be fighting do we?

[wild mango]

Aka the corporist duo would be ready to go t1 if you run all 5

[bronze zephyr]

I guess we’ll prolly know on Tuesday lol

[wild mango]

Idk

[stoic fjord]

from the trailer, most guesses are pointing towards ring

[atomic steeple]

Minus coin bloodfiend ring member

[bronze zephyr]

Hmhm interesting

Would be cool to see other factions like fauvinists or cubists

[wild mango]

That would kick ass tbh

[stoic fjord]

since... most science-y finger, presence of Ryoshu talking about art, and abbreviation vs. excess etc.

[stoic fjord]

it'd be peak

[atomic steeple]

We'll probably see ring and pinky (shiomi's legacy, her color scheme also used by araya appears in the intervallo title)

[bronze zephyr]

Oh more pinky would be cool

[atomic steeple]

Ring is also the most concerned with knowledge and tech, so they are likely to scavenge the House of Spiders, plus it being in the COrridor, made with their tech, means they'd easily get there before others

Guess we'll learn more about all ryoshu she picked up from callisto
Always wondered why she seemed most obviously connected to the Ring

[bronze zephyr]

My thought for the finger that would scavenge the house was the thumb cuz they made project araya but

The finger I want more of is the index

Index Meursault specifically

Though he did just get Hornet

I’d like another Don finger

Ooh or an Ishmael..

[signal kindle]

I just had a random thought

Sancho I have concieved an idea most ingenious

The song “children of the city” shows that the prescripts are also set up in a way that they have a cascading effect

Find a bride/groom
Kill them
Paint your room “picturesque” which is easy since corporists would say you have fresh material on habd

I don’t really know where I’m going with this it’s 1am

The prescripts aren’t random they’re set up in a specific order to achieve a set of goals is my opinion

[stoic fjord]

yeah, the Index essentially has a plan running 24/7 in the background guiding them that even they can only interpret piecemeal

shit just works out for them because every action taken factors into the will of the city I suppose

[signal kindle]

Hmm

Ultimately then the index are weak to things not of the city

I imagine

[stoic fjord]

...perhaps, yes

[atomic steeple]

Well they call it the will of the city

But it's pretty much gods born of humanity, as roland said

The index still doesn't beat the other power players of the city

[stoic fjord]

they did manage a huge W against the Thumb

but also yeah I imagine if like, a Corp wanted them gone, it'd be gone

there's just no reason for that to be the case

[signal kindle]

Have we ever seen a prescript that refers to a non city matter

Like say, monsters

[stoic fjord]

I don't believe so, no

[atomic steeple]

The gods of the index are creations to give meaning and direction

[signal kindle]

I’m not going “Aha” in the game that focuses on THE CITY but it could be something of interest

[stoic fjord]

to be fair

it's not too unlikely we start exploring the outskirts eventually

[atomic steeple]

Kromer tried to become an old god instead of one of the modern ones

[signal kindle]

I think it’s a given tbh

[stoic fjord]

I imagine some time into purgatorio we leave the city

[atomic steeple]

Yeah but like
The 5 fingers share the backstreets

[signal kindle]

I want sephirot ids 😭

[stoic fjord]

yeah, they're not gonna like. outright eliminate one

[atomic steeple]

What that means is unexplored

We might see more of what gods are in canto 10 and canto 11

[keen palm]

https://youtube.com/shorts/oMAw-4E9jBY?si=b_7stabx82LCwZeZ

Oh so THATS why the levels were different

[eternal gull]

oh also in c8

why was granny not hunted by the head

[keen palm]

Did you get to what she did

[atomic steeple]

Oh you mean that scene

She deliberately toed the line without crossing it

The head is very absolute about its lines

[dusty sigil]

The head was only there to kill the birds and anyone who knew how to make the ampules that create them

She made them in a way via blindfold, randomized ingredients and many assistants that despite being the mastermind behind their design, she actually has no idea how to make more

As she doesn’t actually know the ingredients she used

[atomic steeple]

To the head, playing with the lines set by higher beings is a very human thing to do. Well, at least binah thinks so

[eternal gull]

ye

[keen palm]

Then yeah

[eternal gull]

that makes a lot more sense now thank you

that explains the randomness

[keen palm]

Basically she tricked everyone else into making a pipe bomb but because technically she didnt know the recipe she gets off Scott free

[eternal gull]

honestly I just accepted it was something like the spirit of the ingredients/the quality of the bolus depending on some of the ingredients having an element of randomness included, changing them in some way

😭

[eternal gull]

yeah

[dusty sigil]

A rube goldberg machine so long and complicated she didn’t even technically kill anyone so she doesn’t go to hell

[dusty sigil]

Nah, if you have the same ingredients, recipe and mastery of bolus making you could do the same

It’s why the head killed everyone who heard the message

[eternal gull]

Ye

[dusty sigil]

They now knew how to bring nonhumans into the city

[eternal gull]

and thus were against the heads wishes of humanosupremacy

and thus were ended ye

[stoic fjord]

it might've also just been the approximate age of each sinnerling

[bronze zephyr]

Yeah that's my guess

Gregor's said to be the youngest and outis the oldest i think, and outis's level is 8 and gregor's 4 iirc

[keen palm]

Well that was also my guess

But I didnt realize it was that consistent among teams

[stoic fjord]

Gregor shares that with Don Quixote and Heathcliff

[bronze zephyr]

Mm ic

oh didnt realize maestro hong removed his non jade eye

also: wish we could see his ring pensive

[faint pivot]

The way I see it, minus coin skills & EGO key on desperation and sheer force/grit

The saner you are the less likely you are to make the positional/morale sacrifices needed to pull off your technique properly (i.e. diving straight towards your assailants for N Clair, corroding further in the magical girls' cases)

[stoic fjord]

Sunshower

[faint pivot]

Leaving yourself exposed would fall into this too I believe, like what EGO corrosion and some Awakenings like Sinclair's Doomsday Clock(?)

[faint pivot]

In class, can't do every minus coiner lmao

[dusty sigil]

I’ve always imagined negative coin as indicative of extreme mental instability

[faint pivot]

Yeah that's what it is

But we're narrowing down what they all trend towards when it comes to combat

[dusty sigil]

Since every negative coin ID either is insane (NClair) can go insane (the magical girls) or immensely suicidal (sunshower)

And all the negative coin bosses are either distortions which don’t want to hurt us but do anyway or actively going insane due to the effects of a extreme body modification

[stoic fjord]

I was about to ask "so why Lantern Yi Sang?"

and then I remembered literally all of the point of the ID/abno

[dusty sigil]

Lantern Sang is in the suicidal section yah

[dusty sigil]

The only one that doesn’t really fit here is Guido Meursault

Because he’s not particularly unstable

But also only his counter is negative anyway so idk

[bronze zephyr]

oh lmao tf

[atomic steeple]

Oh inquisitor meur has minus coin

[dusty sigil]

Oh also BL Meursault but he’s preforming a move he actively wants to lose to draw his opponent in for a counter attack he also doesn’t count

[dusty sigil]

It’s so weird

I have no idea why

Especially when N Corp has SP regen as a gimmick

[wild mango]

this comp is seeming pretty effective tbh

[stoic fjord]

season 1 design

[dusty sigil]

I mean yah

[faint pivot]

N Corp gimmick is nails, SP regen iirc is solely an N Faust thing

[wild mango]

dropping princess rodi just feels slightly weird

[gentle mulch]

I'm wondering like

why drop rodion to keep ring yi sang

which i get why

but that's the princess

you can't treat a princess like that

[main scaffold]

True!

[dusty sigil]

Yah but N Faust is meant to be the team’s leader

[faint pivot]

She's the exception not the norm

[dusty sigil]

I guess

[faint pivot]

He's part of the Hammers

The most sane of the bunch, Heathcliff, definitely ain't doing very well

I'm guessing his negative counter is a much more limited version of YMF/TCTB

Goading your foes with an opening only to take advantage of their positioning

If you've practiced stuff stupid yet proven effective like running towards machine gun fire by relying on your regen factor, hesitation is the enemy

"Enough...Victory is ours, the glorious dawn of a pure humanity is upon us...why must I waste my efforts on these heathens?"
-Nclair, rolling a whopping 0 on his skill 3

[stoic fjord]

Canto 9 spoilers

[wild mango]

Ok actually really funny that Albina fausts bench passive is really good too

[stoic fjord]

The shot of the pinky promise and the shared smoke.... fuuuuuuck

[wild mango]

Hm, what exactly is the kk duo run for in the bleed team, isn’t it a lot of count infliction?

And kk ish’s nuke and heaths free attack

[wild mango]

Because if the corporist duo has similar infliction, maybe kk heath is droppable cos the corporist duo has assist defense?

Being a similar function to kk heaths free attack

And keep Ishmael

So it would be 3 core bloodfiends, 3 ring ids, kk ish?

[stoic fjord]

Iirc KK Ish and Heath in particular work better as a package deal

[wild mango]

Yeah her combat passive doesn’t do anything if it’s just her

[stoic fjord]

Personally I would run 4 bloodfiends and 3 ring IDs

[wild mango]

Then…

[wild mango]

Eh, I’m not pressed by barber or priest

Maybe nshu or awls Gregor?

[stoic fjord]

I was going to say "just drop barber" because priest has more use ime in normal play but fair

Uhhhh

[stoic fjord]

Awl Gregor, probably?

[wild mango]

Really it’s probably nshu for AOE encounters and awls Gregor for single target

Dropping the kk duo feels wild but I guess the new ring ids are similar functionality?

[wild mango]

Are they similar functionality?

[cosmic gorge]

KK ish and heath need another KK to do their stuff best

[wild mango]

Similar to the ring ids

[cosmic gorge]

and since every other KK before them had season 1 design...

[wild mango]

I’m just curious if they occupy the same space somewhat on the bleed team

[stoic fjord]

I would say on the surface, yes? Though from what I can tell Ring Lu is just genuinely cracked

[wild mango]

Yeah

[stoic fjord]

Like, sure, but also holy shit this guy is on the Hong Lord juice

[wild mango]

Just trying to figure out if you’d be loosing something crucial by dropping the kk duo

[cosmic gorge]

if youre dropping one its best to drop both imo

load bearing heathmael IDs lmao

[wild mango]

Something crucial that the ring ids don’t cover for I mean

[stoic fjord]

AFAIK, no

Some aura farming with Ishmael's S3 i guess??? Idk man I think you can theoretically push them out of bleed with the ring now

[wild mango]

Yeah

I was just thinking about that and wanted to ask

[keen palm]

KK Ish has great count, good scaling, her skill 3, and Heath has lust attacks on demand, great count, and synergizes well with letting Priest get his ass kicked for free.

I think personally that if you are fighting a single-part boss you probably still want the KK duo

[keen palm]

That's great work

[bronze zephyr]

@ebon forge

[atomic steeple]

It's a single player game, why worry about amcros?

[eternal gull]

it is very strange

theres literally no reason for it to matter

like if I want a support id at lv60 I could just friend someone

hmm

[bronze zephyr]

It disincentivizes using the gacha, if I had to guess

[eternal gull]

perhaps the grinding encourages people to spend

[bronze zephyr]

You can shard whatever you want, no need to ever pull

Yeah.

[eternal gull]

that would make sense

[atomic steeple]

truly a wing ceo, kjh

[stoic fjord]

I believe one of the major reasons was people selling accounts, if we're being more charitable

Seeing as this is also PMoon's main income right now, it also means more pulling is encouraged if people can't grind as easily

Luckily for me, I'm a weird fucking freak who genuinely enjoys MD grinding

[dusty sigil]

https://youtu.be/o-vzzlYFK_Y?si=lzbRC7rikYpQnxd0

Another gay or European video has hit limbus company

[bronze zephyr]

Ooh yeah I saw this one

[wild mango]

That’s fair

[cosmic gorge]

the answer is obviously And

[faint pivot]

Aye, from PMoon's PoV macros turn a crossroads (put in the time to shard, or the money to pull/shard?) into a one-way street (neither, just run the game in the background)

This would've been fine if Limbus wasn't live-service

Option 3 is unideal not only cause you get less money, it also retains players the least since you think less about the game overall

[atomic steeple]

Mirae life insurance killed

[cosmic gorge]

alright time to fight a windmill

[bronze zephyr]

19 hours until ID teaser,, so curious

[atomic steeple]

So, run them with thumb or what?

[faint pivot]

Alongside Jeong office passives yeah

Mirae stands well as her own keypage though

Er, their leader, forgot if she was called Mirae

[eternal gull]

idc as much ab the cosmetics but ill be damned if i dont squeeze every exp ticket outta this thing

granted i only need 65 currency sjfsdfds

[faint pivot]

Question

Say I tear the KK duo apart and only run one

Ish, or Heath?

No other KKs

[uneven canopy]

https://youtu.be/Zf-HBLCzxcg the phase change gang

[bronze zephyr]

hrm
if you have enough bleed count, ish, otherwise heath?

lmaooo

[cosmic gorge]

ish has her nuke, heath stabs people who hit your units

[faint pivot]

Humu

N Sang, N Ryo, Faubina, Manadon, Allegory, Reath

That isn't enough count for KKish is it

[cosmic gorge]

i dont think in terms of count bc i only ever play on MD and that gives me count for days

[faint pivot]

Wait

That's fair lmao

Just prepping for when PMoon adds the lux waves

I have poise pierce, so I'm just planning for N duo pierce

Slash is gonna be between Heishou & Burn with my goat Dawnclair

And I'll be doing Fridays and Saturdays with Envy Res & Tremor

[tiny cave]

@ebon forge

[eternal gull]

this is twice now

poor carmen is going to be carmade

local KJH has shot evil mad science lady

has become caramelmarmalade

[keen palm]

Its a single player game where everything can be grinded

However using macros to grind is specifically using cheat codes to get paid stuff for free

So I can see why they wouldnt want that

[eternal gull]

what is this... some kind of stain you cant wash out?

[gentle mulch]

i guess i can see why they're amping it up

but i do have to wonder what the internal metrics are like that it's cost effective to put time and money into that than just coasting off of the growth they're already seeing

[lean fjord]

I've found myself pretty comfortably maxing out most things with just the minimum mostly

It's just a matter of time

A lot of your income is just weeklies and events

I'm only missing like 12-ish Standard Fare IDs currently

And still have a couple hundred shard boxes I'm in no hurry to use

[gentle mulch]

Yeah doing the dailies, weeklies, and events already puts you on pace or ahead of the curve

[eternal gull]

every time an event comes by, wherever I was at I would be double that by the end of the month, XP, shards, identities and all.

[gentle mulch]

I guess that is still grinding in a sense but it is degrees less egregious than what people normally think of grinding

[bronze zephyr]

Mhm, I'm missing a few IDs I might want but as long as i can shard everything in a season plus change im happy

[stoic fjord]

Aiui this basically neuters them

[faint pivot]

Ah

[stoic fjord]

I don't actually have them tho so

I'm speaking based on what I've seen and heard

Not personal usage

[faint pivot]

Dw I'm just gathering food for thought

[stoic fjord]

They're much stronger together than alone

[faint pivot]

My N Duo team isn't 100% pierce anyway if I'm bringing Faubina so

[faint pivot]

For non-fiend Bleed I suppose

Since we just got two real hype bleed slashers

[keen palm]

Its better to run KK ish solo than KK heath

But the only thing she gives at that point is her count and SK3

[atomic steeple]

We need a doc of each team and its components
And keep updating it

Granted, activating bleed thrice is pretty good

[faint pivot]

||The Scenario deems this insufficient||, ending the run

[atomic steeple]

Hod got along well with angela in early loops

[eternal gull]

attachment work

[atomic steeple]

Doomed yuri

[faint pivot]

The very first core supps be like:

They got a whole lot easier when Ange deduced that love isn't allowed in this workplace

[atomic steeple]

Anyway, I have been comfortably building my teams
Soon bleed will be complete, and I'll complete burn abd sinking
Leaving poise, rupture, tremor
Rupture I'll do next season

[keen palm]

https://youtu.be/aP1sd6e48Zo?si=XOls9K5xtso4-CgA

[atomic steeple]

Anyway, back on Wuthering Heights too
Jesus that home is dysfunctional
Nelly had to hide hareton everyday, when his father arrived drunk
Said father complains about it abd how his son is ingrate, Child Abuse ||holds him on top of a stairway as a threat, then accidentally drops him but heath catches the kid||
"Nelly, why didn't you hide my kid from me when I arrived!? That's your job!"

Think I might put the leader of mirae life insurance to help hod

[atomic steeple]

Oh, life insurance is a debuffing mass attack, nice

Irina looks strong

There's this other gen reception guy who staggers himself for a massive damage attack, but needs a setup card first
If timed right, could have him hit a staggered enemy

[atomic steeple]

Irina clears all stacks of one debuff each scene, hmmm

[lean fjord]

Bayard is pretty bad unfortunately

He has an amazing passive in Offensive Position though

And a couple of his pierce cards are alright

[dusty sigil]

Yah he’s worth it for offensive position alone

To bad his primary gimmick of self immobilization is really fucking bad

Losing a turn in Ruina is never worth it

[lean fjord]

And he doesn't even do the damage upfront like Overcharge

[fickle crown]

Imagine we get Bayard as a gen reception ID in Limbus' next Walp...

You think Outis would have him?

[lean fjord]

It could honestly work better as a gimmick in Limbus

[fickle crown]

Yeah, Heath already does it too

[lean fjord]

Just because we have seven slots instead of five

[fickle crown]

Plus self stagger means you drop an entire stagger bar

There's no stagger refill to restart the cycle like in ruina

If that's how it'll work anyways

I feel like people sleep on W Heath for that fact alone

[lean fjord]

Big health bar with no stagger after you do it once, yeah

[fickle crown]

Like unironically I get a little pissed seeing people complain about unbreakables when newer IDs have entire stagger prevention mechanics baked into them

[lean fjord]

Most of the newer unbreakables also don't stagger

Though it varies

But yeah I have much less issue with unbreakables now mostly

I still think they're kinda bullshit in canto 7 though

And 8 to a slightly lesser extent

[atomic steeple]

Canto 7 was suffering

[fickle crown]

Tbh 8's unbreakables are so goddamn dangerous because of the rupture buildup

Not because the coins themselves are an issue

[lean fjord]

Yeah that's what I meant

It's rough in those because of the Bleed and Rupture

This canto it was mostly fine

Because they have definitely also tuned down red coins a lot

Now most of the time reds deal reduced damage, don't inflict status, and in some cases can't stagger

[fickle crown]

Canto 9 makes up for it by forcing you to remember actual team building is an aspect of this game

[lean fjord]

It did definitely force you to have good IDs on everyone

And I strongly suspect we're gonna get a lot more of that going forward

With Malkuth in play now

[fickle crown]

Yeahhhh

I do wish they started adding the ability to forcibly level your IDs to the story's level

But then we wouldn't get absolute meme runs like level 1 morositas

[lean fjord]

It does make sense I think

Splitting the Sinners is super useful for both storytelling and gameplay

And might also continue to make team building for story more interesting

[fickle crown]

Also you can only borrow one ID, right?

[lean fjord]

Correct

Only one support ID

[fickle crown]

Augh...

That does remind me too, GOD the Pinky Nursefather was such a pain in the ass

RNGesus wanted me dead with the ass clashes I was getting

[lean fjord]

Tough fight yeah

[fickle crown]

No you misunderstand

I fucking got 5%ed on an EGO roll and lost the clash to her pride skill

[lean fjord]

Ooof

[fickle crown]

That and literally nobody (even at max sanity further into the fight) was winning shit

It felt

Awful ngl

Me when Lord Lu lowballs his S3 for the third time in a row

This is not the first time it's happened too

Mf consistently decided to miss the mark on his S3 multiple times against the last knight too...

he rolled tails on the check

I ended restarting anyways and as always, Full Stop Heath is a fucking insane check winner

[stoic fjord]

I think my only canto 9 roadblock was the first Sora fight

Everything else went smoothly

The three roadblocks I have encountered so far with limbus

1. Dongbaek
2. Canto 7 final boss
3. Sora

[fickle crown]

Sora was actually fucking easy by comparison

Then again I was running sinking so she like

Didn't ever stay in her EGO state long enough to be a problem

[stoic fjord]

Oh right also Please Don't Ever Realize Your Potential, Man

So 4 of them

[fickle crown]

Gregor was more annoying because of his fixed 50/50 rolls ngl

"What if I rolled insanely high anyways lmao" the fight

[vagrant dove]

Mine was Potential Man mainly because of the learning curve

He was pretty alright once I figured out exactly how it all worked

[fickle crown]

He's perfectly fine mechanics wise, I just got fucked up by RNG again haha

[vagrant dove]

Oh yeah the RNG can be a bit of a shitter

My Ouficliff and T Corp Rodya did struggle a little bit

[keen palm]

[gentle mulch]

my general opinion is that the first canto or section they introduce a new mechanic is bullshit because they're just trying it out for the first time and then it becomes like a normal thing afterwards

[lean fjord]

yeah kind of

[ebon forge]

I got pinged twice about this lmao

No ban

Level 1000 is normal

They’re more about the level 5000 shits

But seriously though, make the grind better if you’re going to do that

[signal kindle]

Coming to think about it post canto 8 limbus company are in probably one of the stronger/est positions for a non wing corporation

Not many could say “hey so basically we were crucial in installing a wings chief executive oh and on top of that we then taught her how to fight and she gets on well with the entire bus division”

Albiet not many also have bus divisions but the point I think stands~

[signal kindle]

Real

[signal kindle]

Fucking- every other attack is unbreakable and every 3 attack is like 2~4 of them

[glad fable]

How long until some rich guy really misinterprets the purpose of the LCB and pays to get driven somewhere

[signal kindle]

May I enlighten you into the story of a legendary fixer!

His name is Vergilius

Every time I say red my next word is immediately guided

I didn’t even get the chance to think about it

Fucking hell

[signal kindle]

You see: he has

• travelled around on a bus
• is probably rich
• does fuck all for 90%
• does everything during the remaining 10% when he locks tf in

[glad fable]

Maybe, but Limbus Company hired him so I don’t think it counts

[gentle mulch]

FR

MAKE LITERALLY ANYTHING THAT ISN'T MIRROR DUNGEON AS THE MAIN REPLAYABLE MODE

i wish railway gave extra rewards on multiple clearsss

[vagrant dove]

I don't use macros but tbh I don't blame people who do

MD is a bit too grindey unfortunately

Lile I appreciate the work that goes into making packs and the dungeon in general

And I appreciate that it's better than other gachas

But it's still not fun

[gentle mulch]

My hot take is that MD should have stopped at 10 floors with some bells and whistles that MDIE has
and then hard pivot to something else that isn't MD

[vagrant dove]

Even a typical five floor mdh run takes like

45 minutes?

And there's not much engagement beyond winrate

[gentle mulch]

like 30+minutes if you're focused and use hard hitting IDs

but if you're just winrating yeah

[vagrant dove]

I think the thing is that the structure of the dungeon encourages winrate

[gentle mulch]

people like doing solos! give me a mode that supports solos

[vagrant dove]

Like it's a repetitive task

[gentle mulch]

Give me mass chain battle luxcavations!

[vagrant dove]

So people obviously default to the button

[gentle mulch]

the replayable mode should not be built to be winrated
the grindy mode yeah definitely, which MD is

but if I actually want to play the game i want a mode that makes me actually play

[vagrant dove]

Story content fucks because it encourages you to think

I love limbus combat when it gets you to play the game

[gentle mulch]

story content does it best and it is also the platform that gets the most experimental shit because it's when new mechanics release

[vagrant dove]

I do think we need more non-story modes

That encourage people to Play

[gentle mulch]

WE NEED MORE NOJ STORY SHIT

you know what we need?

[vagrant dove]

Because otherwise the game becomes a chore

And chores aren't fun
