[quaint arch]

Mountain is an AoE Guard in practice

[versed compass]

at least mountain vs chungus feels fair

degen vs irene/chen is wtf

she feels like a 7* of the archtype

[willow nymph]

mountain vs chungus is like

does diff stuff

use the one you need

good design in my gacha game

[versed compass]

same goes for 6* lords and theres 3 of those

irene vs chen did not even feel bad for chen cause of iframes

[quaint arch]

So as the Marksman

[willow nymph]

core casters too

[versed compass]

degen vs irene/chen...

[quaint arch]

Ho'olheyak

So few uses

[willow nymph]

yeah she has her stuff

bad but she has them

[versed compass]

hool dont feel like garbage eyja or garbage ceobe

[strong rampart]

[versed compass]

she is wierd but workable

[willow nymph]

i'd rather have 10 hool than hg pumping a single degen

legit

[versed compass]

i dont mind new unit being stronger then old one
just not so direct

[tough matrix]

yeah I can see that

[willow nymph]

also you can't tell me they don't know how to make different ops

when they made 8 healing defenders

each with very different flavor

[quaint arch]

"We need to somehow sell people with Black Knight. What do we do?"

[versed compass]

even mlynar vs SA did not feel as bad as degen vs irene/chen

[willow nymph]

healing defenders are like blandest concept ever

[quaint arch]

[versed compass]

they could have made a CC focused (aka bibeak powercreep) sword master

i dont mind 6 powercreeping 5

[willow nymph]

I mean

degen disarm loops go hard

[quaint arch]

(I dunno what to add.... feel free to fill it with y'all ideas )

[versed compass]

i said CC focused
not everything focused

[willow nymph]

yeah

[versed compass]

lets make her next mlynar

make her swordmaster with all the good points of existing ones with no downsides

make her unique and fun to use gets thrown outta he window

[willow nymph]

Bibeak only advantage is having the pp range

[quaint arch]

Oh yeah, that meme

[quaint arch]

Divergent Sword Slash
What? That's not the name i know

[willow nymph]

complain to ace

and whoever's maintaining

[hot rampart]

whats the best stage to farm new mats

[tardy vigil]

I knew this line was a scam

[hot rampart]

whats this from

he is somewhat right but mousse atk debuff niche is pretty unique and has perma debuff uptime

[tardy vigil]

a video shitting on gamepress for their takes

[hot rampart]

ah

[tardy vigil]

idc imma e2 her

[hot rampart]

yeah high rarity being power creep is pretty normal since memorial

[tardy vigil]

especially if I understand how to get anything out of this archetype

[hot rampart]

only exception is like ethan/manticore vs mizuki

[tardy vigil]

I guess her dps should be higher then high ground mage

[tardy vigil]

who is better assasin (of mid armor target)

matoimaru or utage

[hot rampart]

utage

her s2 deal arts

ouh u mean

mid armor

still utage i think

she can self sustain herself so she hits more even if her s2 expires

[tardy vigil]

do pyro guys deal arts damage?

with flamethrowers

oh, burn counts as arts

then mato should be still good

[ebon sphinx]

for helidrops(operators you just drop to hopefully damage alot in one deploy or outright kill, you are gonna do this rather often) Utage

especially vs armor

[tardy vigil]

uuuh

I guess mato role is to stand in caster's lane

[versed compass]

both mat only have 1 stage each

tho i wont bother farming them

[hot rampart]

i been delaying hoederer mastery

[versed compass]

you get some of the mat i think from clearing teh chapter

if thats not enough you can do some runs in the 1 map you can farm it in anyway

i just dont think its worth hoarding it

my experience with new mats stacking without farming them is something

this shit only go up

[hallow garnet]

u rolled him? ooo

bold choice

how many pulls

[hot rampart]

60

[hallow garnet]

yikes

[hot rampart]

[hot rampart]

that one i can believe

monka

[ebon sphinx]

not so much some others

[versed compass]

no way they release that

[willow nymph]

Welp sure was unexpected after Babel event

honestly makes sense

[hot rampart]

|| why is W limited again ||

[versed compass]

||whos civilight eterna anyway? theresa?||

[ebon sphinx]

for me its more ||uh yeah theres no way W gets two limited versions||

[hot rampart]

|| she looks like her in leak image ||

[willow nymph]

||originium recreation of theresa by amiya's crown||

[hot rampart]

|| logos limited makes sense when u think about rosmontis ||

[versed compass]

||i still cant see bard being a welfare, i think its too good of an archtype||

[willow nymph]

||I mean it's 6* welfare||

look at gladiia

[hot rampart]

yeah

[versed compass]

hey look at the last 3 we got

vigil silence lessing :icant:

[willow nymph]

||me when theresa can recreate retreated op in originium||

[hot rampart]

silence is okay its just abjurer being pointless as hell

[versed compass]

i got temp silence once

i should have used it on orchid

[hot rampart]

lessing is uh

by 6* dreadnought standards he is the weakest among em

[versed compass]

lessing is worse then skadi if i recall
and skadi is not even a high par

[hot rampart]

yeah but he is usable

unlike vigil

[versed compass]

vigil is useable

[hot rampart]

nuh

[versed compass]

he is

[hot rampart]

nuh uh

[tardy vigil]

I don't understand the point of stainless

[versed compass]

whats the yes version of that

[tardy vigil]

Just 24% dmg?

[versed compass]

s1 use is attack boost

s3 is some weird sheninagens

i think stainless is pretty horrible for a newbie

[hot rampart]

yuh huh

[versed compass]

yuh huh

[willow nymph]

s3 you need to look at his page on prts to know what it does

[hot rampart]

his s1?

u can stack it

[versed compass]

i have s1m3 now

mastering his s3

[ebon sphinx]

anyway eh yeah, this sounds...a bit too...big

[hot rampart]

its more controllable than warf

[ebon sphinx]

prolly will forget about it later

[tardy vigil]

it is 12% if not stacked

[ebon sphinx]

anyway, what seems to be consistent with leaks is uh ||Siege getting completely mogged||

[hot rampart]

theres an active effect

[tardy vigil]

200-400 extra on each typhoon hit sounds decent, but not sure if its worth the unit

[hot rampart]

sl 7 it becomes 36% if u activate his skill

double that when u stack 2 of em on one operator

[tardy vigil]

that destroys turrets

[hot rampart]

yes

u can use it like twice per stage

counting the amount of device he start with

on e2

without modules

i see theres only 2 on e1

and his skill only refund 1 back

[tardy vigil]

so yeah 2 times

[hot rampart]

he has 3 on e2

so u get to use its full effect twice

its good on typhon s3

to nuke boss

[tardy vigil]

she can nuke bosses regardless

but true

[hot rampart]

she can

but she can nuke harder

[willow nymph]

case in point max buff stainless gives on s1 is 96% atk

and well if he's nearby the refunds mean you can buff willy nilly at e2

[tardy vigil]

I don't put him nearby. I put him somewhere as mid block body

[hot rampart]

that talent locked behind e2 but yeah

[versed compass]

whos that

[hot rampart]

siege slander aside || at least she does something in ch13 thank god ||

[versed compass]

||lore wise or gameplay wise||

[hot rampart]

lore wise

but

i think shes usable for gameplay wise for the worms

actually very effective too

[civic linden]

Masteries make his S1 give a total of 98% attack, i think thats tied for highest boost

https://youtu.be/yt3Cm_c0TvY?si=URnDLQ3Bojnh5MtQ abd you can do a lot of fun stuff with s3

[wanton stratus]

I believe it’s actually +96% atk

[hot rampart]

i forgot to change bait

but W was good enough

he felt reluctant to come tho

[hot rampart]

no clue yet

[quaint arch]

Well, i'll just do 1-7 all over again then

🪨 ⛏️

I don't need Polyester that many, game

Hmm... Save Sanity Pots for Next Event or just use it for Roccs?

Devices

Yeah, might need to save some

[hot rampart]

YYOOO

DEVICE

WAIT IM RUNNING OUT OF BLUE ROCKS TOO

ok thank god its 3 week event

[tardy vigil]

You mean the ongoing farm story?

I thought it's same for amount of sanity spent

So spend it wherever

[hot rampart]

yep

but i think he specifically meant if any of the new nodes has better farm efficiency for older mats

[hallow garnet]

boos

is doggo worth the raise?

and does she need module

im soon done with the COMPLETELY unnecessary m6 lv3 mod fia

cause im crazy

but after that i could do doggo

[quaint arch]

Mod actually helps considerably

[hallow garnet]

dang

which mod

i never paid attention to dog cause she was always kinda ded

[quaint arch]

A Very Dry Bread

(And yes, that's the name of the Mod)

[ebon sphinx]

all her stuff is named Very X Y

[hallow garnet]

really dry bread

lol

shoulda given her shrooms

as mod

alr i'll check on it

[quaint arch]

Just like the skill it improves upon:

Really Hot Knives

[hallow garnet]

ah i kinda need to do eben mod d too

hmmmmm

[ebon sphinx]

as shown in the Kay-chan shorts, she behaves like and indeed is treated like a child with dog-like behavior

[hallow garnet]

idk shes just lying around in my acc

[quaint arch]

Dew what you feel like it

[hallow garnet]

randomly lv 90

lv 7 skills

[quaint arch]

[hallow garnet]

and never used her in my life

except now for dos

but i borrowed anyway

[quaint arch]

The Tankier the Enemy Defense, the more painful Kay Hot Knife's.

[hallow garnet]

mmm

ye i get she works

just...never needed her?

and still not sure i do

[quaint arch]

[hallow garnet]

typhon just does it anyway

or any other bosskiller idiot

[quaint arch]

Powercreeping is absurd these days

Remember Rosa?

[hallow garnet]

yeah

lv90

maxed module

m6

i remember her

[quaint arch]

How's Rosa usage for you these days?

[hallow garnet]

zero

[quaint arch]

[hallow garnet]

very few quirk units have stuck with me

that i keep on forcing

cheeto is probably my biggest force

i carry her into stages she has no business being in

but now with fia she can be sp battery

[quaint arch]

Ahh yes, S2 SP Battery

(Or S3)

[hallow garnet]

mhm

both

and then put in chen

add feist

and ratatatatatatattaaaa

or just run mlynar who can do all this alone without real setup

[quaint arch]

No ATK Buffers?

[hallow garnet]

skalter right

[quaint arch]

[hallow garnet]

shes so perma in my team i treat her as a map effect atp

[quaint arch]

50% Usage of Skado

[hallow garnet]

i kinda realized that even tho i love afk gaming

i kinda like the button mash shit

with fia and cheeto s2

[quaint arch]

Like Leonhardt S2?
Or better, Saga S2?

[hallow garnet]

and frantically deploying doro boombooms

[hallow garnet]

NO

NOT SAGA

aburage

pls no

[quaint arch]

You can't escape from the Saga

[hallow garnet]

i can

shes completely redundant

ines just dances circles around any vg

except maybe flagpipe squad

[quaint arch]

One Op Jammed with many packages

[hallow garnet]

now what i would like

is sleep support

or something to make maria more viable

i have a hard time forcing her

i hate her s2

i wish we got a mod that lets her heal with s3

we have so many borken powercreep shit it wouldnt even be op anymore

Thick accents for EN voicelines, that's genius!

I can barely understand Bagpipe's EN voicelines and I love it!

[ebon sphinx]

trivia, they use Received Pronunciation or Queen's English for BBC because...its the only English accent thats universally understood in Great Britain

God knows what'd happen if they used Glasgow, Manchester, North Irish, Welsh or something else

Noodle stopper? Never heard of that before

[civic linden]

are you supposed to maker her sit on a bowl of ramen of something?

[wanton stratus]

Maybe in a bowl of ramen?

[ebon sphinx]

cup ramen

after pouring hot water and condiments in, you keep the paper lid closed for like 3 mins until its ready

you dont really need figurines like this since any paperweight will do

[wanton stratus]

I thought chopsticks were enough to keep the lid closed tbh, but I admit I haven’t cooked too many cup noodles

[tardy vigil]

She looks cute, but I don't understand what the stopping is about

I guess if you are really eager for her to sit on your food

[hot rampart]

yep

[tough matrix]

alright

[hallow garnet]

isnt it just better to keep her the whole time

for snipers are guards

[hot rampart]

once m3 start its already halved

[hallow garnet]

oh

[hot rampart]

so u switch to whoever got m3 trainer

Exusiai would have the same problem, but she scales better off attack buffs due to her multihit skills (yes, I know Archetto also has multihit on S3).

The main advantage of Archetto is her range.

All in all, I rarely use her outside of SSS though.

[hot rampart]

can still use her casually for normal stages

u arent griefing urself cuz theres always shitty mobs to clear out

[spark oasis]

It's just that the average trash mob has been getting progressively higher DEF.

With "trash mobs" having like... 200-300 DEF as opposed to 70.

[versed compass]

i think for non buff propose archetto is better

cause multi target mob cleaner

good example into chap 12 drones archetto felt a lot better cause she hit big drone and small drones at once

[hot rampart]

its not loading i assume its swire skin gif

[quaint arch]

How so?

[willow nymph]

Cos swire is pretty cute

[civic linden]

Imo opinion archettonis far from useless, yeah she struggles agaisn't high def enemies but thats a thing for almost every sniper branch and since you got stainless thats a problem that can be fixed aswell

Unless your plan is to build your account for ultra high end content raising her is fine if you want to

And even then it's not like she is completely useless in high end content

[hot rampart]

becuz its CN news today i have telepathy

[hallow garnet]

oh wow i barely have trustfarm units left

[tough matrix]

I wonder if its better to buy Fiametta's outfit

nevermind, I bought fia

[tardy vigil]

Do low def enemies exist?

I see most of units having 400-600 armor

Trash mobs have 300, but what's point in raising unit that deals 0 damage half the time because she's hitting big dudes for 0

[wanton stratus]

Just use buffs

And AA snipers are useful to kill drones with

[tardy vigil]

I guess as super niche thing

its sad because I can lvl archetto right now

and all "must raise units" have mats blocked by story

I also could raise andreana but she feels even worse

[wanton stratus]

Andreana has way more attack than Archetto, yet she is still a worse unit

[tardy vigil]

archetto feels good sometimes (rarely) and andreana feels bad always

[fluid verge]

yea but AH synergy

skadoot needs to smack faster

[wanton stratus]

This guy hunts abyssals

[tardy vigil]

when AH banner

[fluid verge]

u mean this guy is a whaler

[tardy vigil]

me? never

[fluid verge]

nah me

[tardy vigil]

how could I

well ofc

I just assumed ah snipers are rare

like 2-3

so they synergy dont exist to me, just like archetto offensive sp recovery

[versed compass]

they do pop out between time and another

[versed compass]

this one in chap 13 for example

[fluid verge]

i have their modules all maxed out

[versed compass]

i have spalter mod 6 too

still did not do skadi as i have no blocks

[fluid verge]

i have 51 module blocks

[versed compass]

have archetto/mizuki/blemi module 6 tho

[fluid verge]

idk what to spend them on atm

theres a couple of meta choices i guess like eyja, ceobe, and horn

im raising delphine atm

[versed compass]

i kept eyja module 1

ceobe i did 3

[tardy vigil]

so it is 4 units in the abyssal hunter squad

interesting

[fluid verge]

5

remember you can run alts now

skadoot2 technically doesnt count as a AH but her trait is buffed by being in the tile range of an aAH

[versed compass]

pretty sure AH players dont count her for AH clears

[civic linden]

This thing will be one of the main threats of the next "high end" content(tho it's probably gonna receive some DEF buffs but you get the idea)

[tardy vigil]

interesting

[versed compass]

its still pretty annoying in chap 12

espically for someone who trying to push chapters with weaker squads

[wanton stratus]

It was annoying for me too since I M3’d Ines’ S3 instead of S2

But at least S3 helped a little…

Pre-orders start on the 28th, so it will only work once pre-orders are open.

[tardy vigil]

Jessicat turned out not so good at "just tank arts damage" role

I don't understand why people say raising 4* to e2 is a bad idea

• It doesn't cost that much
• I won't get anyone better for every role for every niche soon. I planned to save

[tribal thicket]

Who said that

[tardy vigil]

Like raising gummy

[tribal thicket]

Pretty common for people to raise 4* to e2

Since its cheap af

[tardy vigil]

You can't raise 3* to e2

[tribal thicket]

Esp new players

[tardy vigil]

[tribal thicket]

I haven't used a 3* since forever

[wanton stratus]

Show ur squad

[tardy vigil]

To beat 9-19 I need to tank real hard with 3 healers and don't accidentally die

[wanton stratus]

Huh

chen alter outside of skill does 0 damage to them

[hot rampart]

https://fxtwitter.com/RIHI_ewokakune/status/1782365554168492394?t=XlH0zjxshpEbhfnDfgeNTg&s=19

[versed compass]

most ops do negative damage out side skill

[tardy vigil]

I guess they kept adding longer text and had to make enemies stronger as compensation. Except most enemies have not much text and def sticks result in 0 dmg dealt

[versed compass]

even back in the days it was not much different

if you want good damage all the time you use perma skills or cheap spammed skills

which end up being much weaker then burst skills

in exchange of consistency

[tardy vigil]

Or good passives

[versed compass]

we dont have good dps passives

[tardy vigil]

We have bad DPS passives

Like coldshot

YouTube told me she is, apparently, playable

[versed compass]

coldshot dont have a skill passive

[tardy vigil]

If you want to

[tardy vigil]

Yea, but she does damage outside of skill

[versed compass]

everything have bad damage out side of skill

except for like reapers

and ela

[hot rampart]

skill rotation and when to use it

is a skill check

[tardy vigil]

I think Typhon s2 is pretty much passive

[hot rampart]

yeah

u can pass off unlimited skill as passive

just need to click button once / twice

[tardy vigil]

And Typhon does 30-35% of damage outside of s2 compared to in s2

[quaint arch]

Not leveled enough

[tardy vigil]

Sussochad

[versed compass]

will i did say perma skill are the way to go for good damage all the time

[versed compass]

neat, now enjoy chap 10

pretty fun chapter

wtf is this

[tardy vigil]

it is huohuo from hsr

[spark oasis]

No word of a lie, I didn't raise Gummy until about 2 weeks ago, and I've been playing for 4 years.

I got Nearl and Saria very early, and most of the time you're taking Spot into IS when you see Defender recruitments with low hope..

[willow nymph]

Yeah gummy more like gum mid

Spot and cardigan are just so much more resource efficient

[tardy vigil]

Spot was not enough

he was raised and he couldnt do it

now I think - do I m3 mousse or leave her as is

reducing atk more and more is kinda

[strong rampart]

I use Cardigan

No furries allowed in my IS

[civic linden]

I like gummy for more consistent healing (also can't wait for russian VAs to be added)

[willow nymph]

she's horrible at consistent healing tho

heal wasting is real

like genuinely

[tardy vigil]

Every big shot can overshoot

Both in heals and dmg

[willow nymph]

If you die from 70% health
you're likely meant to use a better healing defender a real defender with a medic

if you're getting outpaced in terms of healing (will happen a lot) you need to stop using gummy

[spark oasis]

Gummy S1 has that issue of wasting a CD on any amount of healing.

Even if it's literally scratch damage.

Whereas Nearl and Saria S1 wait until they see someone below 50%

And we can ignore her S2.

[wanton stratus]

NUH UH

Let her cook

[willow nymph]

why doesn'y she keep the def

[versed compass]

dog bait for 10 damage

gummy : ya i need to heal that

btw why type a of this skill is better then type b, or is cardi just built different

[willow nymph]

cardi just built diff

[willow nymph]

the heal is also crappy

she has both low atk and low scaling on s1

[wanton stratus]

Matoimaru btfo as usual

[versed compass]

i seen people cope healing over 50% being (relevant)

but like

if your op is dying from over 50%

gummy will never keep up

[willow nymph]

E2 70 nearl has 490 atk
E2 70 gummy has 456
s1 nearl is 180% of atk ( really 198% w talent no pot)
s1 gummy is 160% of atk

[versed compass]

(can hold 3 charges)

[willow nymph]

well the comparison is even worse at e1 anyway

because the skill has higher sp cost

so wasting it hurts more

[hallow garnet]

does anybody use quercus?

@versed compass is quercus a thing in IS?

[willow nymph]

copium no healer thing

really dislike the wait before she starts healing but she works

[hallow garnet]

hm

oh her s2 gives sp

[versed compass]

its pretty bad

only reason is a copium no medic ticket as bara said

[hallow garnet]

i randomly have her e1 max for some reason

[versed compass]

but even then i rather pick skalter

and cope s1

[hallow garnet]

rlly

oo

okay

no skin buy then

[versed compass]

her s1 is what people use

as copium eyja s1 or something

her s2 is pretty much touch at home

[willow nymph]

very very discount touch

quercus is better than skalter in like 1 map

and that's ed2

because you want longer than 30s stalls

the rest s1 skalter outperforms in healing/survivability and versatility

while having s2 that just works

[versed compass]

skalt also stay good if you ran into medics

[willow nymph]

yep

but hope constraints are a thing so querc is a thing

[versed compass]

clearly sora is the way

[quaint arch]

Building Quercus in alt atm

Farming trust so I can build mods

[willow nymph]

sora healing so bad

idk how we coped it was usable before

Bard mod gonna fix

[wanton stratus]

U-Official boutta go crazy with mod

[willow nymph]

she can't get one

she's a 1*

lmao

[wanton stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-21658987

[tardy vigil]

So 5* at e2 lvl 70 heals 20% more

But it costs 70% more

And gummy has a chance to stun

[wanton stratus]

18% chance to stun for 1 second

At E2

[tardy vigil]

18% chance to receive 0 damage from however big enemy attack is

I still don't understand why "5* has more stats" is an argument to say 4* is useless

And not worth raising

[hot rampart]

its worth when u dont have said 5*

bigger problem is when gummy being compared to a 3* spot

[tardy vigil]

It's a problem to me

I have both and spot simply dies

[hot rampart]

yeah he cant sustain a constant lane of enemies

but is better for periodically spawn

[hot rampart]

easily fixable with a medic

[tardy vigil]

He died under 3 healers against a boss and wave of enemies

[hot rampart]

spot dies and can't tank

u need better defenders and not gummy

[tardy vigil]

Wow thanks for suggestion

Omw to raise cement

[hot rampart]

something like cuora / bubble

[tardy vigil]

Or pull on kernel idk

[hot rampart]

beagle/cardigan

[hot rampart]

yeah sure but do mind she is only 1 block and cant gain sp if not blocking an enemy

[tardy vigil]

You listed exactly reasons why I was sarcastic and would never raise this unit

[hot rampart]

is there no cuora and red cert shop?

wait yeah shes not there

can try getting from

recruitment

[tardy vigil]

Funny

[hot rampart]

whats the boss anyway

[tardy vigil]

I beat it already

[hot rampart]

if its steam knight its way out of ur league

ok thank god

was it manfred?

or mandagora

[tardy vigil]

Mandragora

[hot rampart]

nice job

[tardy vigil]

Yea took around 4-5 hours in one day

And a bunch before

[hot rampart]

if u are being stats checked just level up ur operators to max level e1 first

[quaint arch]

There are so many ops to level tho

[tardy vigil]

I actually wish I had better medics

[quaint arch]

LMD and EXP sink is real

[wanton stratus]

@hot rampart rip Cuora

[hot rampart]

1k def without skills

[tardy vigil]

Oh cuora is a 4*

Yea 1k def does nothing against art

[quaint arch]

Matterhorn

[wanton stratus]

She has a massive hp pool and also heals herself when S2 is active

Probably better at tanking arts than gummy despite having no RES

[quaint arch]

2% HP Regen

Wait...

[wanton stratus]

What’s wrong?

Cat got your tongue?

[tardy vigil]

• If HP gets continually drained then res gonna make all of healing more efficient (and their HP pool is equivalent when multiplied by res)
• cuora skill has 40 sec downtime

She is an interesting option tho, thanks for the suggestion

But I gonna skip, too many protector operators raised already

[wanton stratus]

There will probably come a time when you’ll need a defender specializing in tanking

But that bridge can be crossed later

[tardy vigil]

I have jessicat riot shield

[wanton stratus]

Also, for year 0 unit Cuora has good uptime with 30s/40s ngl

[tardy vigil]

Would work wonders if ch9 didn't make every second tile undeployable and didn't need tanking immediately

[hot rampart]

he has jessicat

its just locked behind e2

[tardy vigil]

Jessicat defenses are not locked behind e2

What if you wanted e2, but hg said:

I just noticed there is iris skin in the shop

Is it worth? NGL her default one slaps already

I confused iris and Ines, nvm

[hot rampart]

her skill 3 which is huge defend boost is behind it

her s1 is uh unlimited skill duration but being unlimited means the stats increase is pretty mediocre

[tardy vigil]

S2 is 75% arts and phys dodge

What are you talking about

[hot rampart]

huge defend boost

s2 is good but its only 15 second

[tardy vigil]

I don't need it, s2 gives better defense

[hot rampart]

defensive skill wise s3 is better while still a decent chunk of dmg

being ammo based also makes the duration longer

[tardy vigil]

It has even bigger sp requirement

And no arts defense

I am yet to feel the need to get bigger def for longer on jessicat

[hot rampart]

and bigger defend

on the mobile shield

[tribal thicket]

Should've never trusted a furry

[ebon sphinx]

stream started in AK JP...but well i think we all know the content

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGFdeY8e7p0

[hot rampart]

i know the content

uwa sugoi 99x

[versed compass]

she often heal much more then 20% more

the deal here is

nearl dont waste

gummy does

all the time

costing more dont mean shit when e1 is not that expensive and nearl is much superior to gummy

[versed compass]

you dont need arts defend when you gonna use her to block phy ones

which is most of the cases of jess

and as kama said it last long

and it can stun too

both skills are solid

[tardy vigil]

and who am I supposed to use against arts/mixed threats?

[willow nymph]

a healer

[tardy vigil]

wow

[willow nymph]

yeah shocking ik

[tardy vigil]

I never thought of using a healer

[willow nymph]

turns out medic is a real class that does stuff

against arts the layman way is duelist + healer if needed
