Arknights

[hot rampart]

nice

[vagrant tusk]

me too, I now always look for the path with that node

now on my 2nd attempt to clear that ED2 final stage

[fluid verge]

is the bow withered knight weak against def and the melee one weak agianst res?

[versed compass]

ya if i recall right

[bleak mirage]

You can just use mine

I got both homie

[versed compass]

i have no idea what happening in ed2 but i won still :ami:

[wanton stratus]

Last joint op banner was the worst banner I’ve ever pulled on

Should I do it again?

[violet vortex]

The talon relic you can get floor 1 followed by constantly resetting for emergencies is pretty strong

[nocturne quarry]

Was finally in a niche I play

[wanton stratus]

HOLY SHIT

Never stop gambling, kids

I was gonna do single pulls until the guaranteed 5* dropped for a 1/6 shot at Vendela, but the 10th bag surprised me with the signature top operator fire

[violet vortex]

She’s my new favorite op

I almost exclusively use s2

And she can be kept at mod1

[wanton stratus]

Which talent does mod2 and 3 buff?

[violet vortex]

Which isn’t surprising to me that she ended up like this since I’m a big fan of Ethan

[wanton stratus]

I know mod1 is a slow

[violet vortex]

It buffs her damage over time & its duration

[wanton stratus]

[violet vortex]

By a whopping 1%(3% since it stacks 3 times) & for 3 extra seconds (it’s 27 seconds at base)

You’re only increasing the mod to 3 for the stat boosts

10% of current atk -> 11%
27s -> 30s

From mod 2 & 3

Oops, 25 at base

Becomes 27 then 30

Same thing

It lasts forever

[wanton stratus]

Not broken

[violet vortex]

It’s a broken mod

Only because mod1 is

[wanton stratus]

Ah ofc

[violet vortex]

Same one as Ethan so by default it’s broken

20% movement speed debuff for existing in her range

• another 60% movement speed debuff for existing in her range during skill 2

Then an 18% movement speed debuff for getting attacked by her, stacking 3 times

[wanton stratus]

Very nice

Sounds like one doesn’t need to block enemies as much with her in the squad

[violet vortex]

The big reason to go skill 2 is the atk buff is much stronger than skill 3

For most of IS I don’t need to block at all if I have her

Or only minimally

Put her at a chokepoint & she’ll kill most of everything

[wanton stratus]

Doesn’t S2 have insane uptime iirc? Like 35 sec uptime and 20SP cost

[violet vortex]

Yes

[wanton stratus]

I’ve used her as support a few times

[violet vortex]

15sp on drop
20 cost
35 duration

[wanton stratus]

I can’t believe she flew under my radar

I must’ve had Logos/Walter brainrot

[violet vortex]

Being an ambusher she also has that innate 50% dodge

So even enemies that can attack her often miss

If you do use s3 then you get the value of her tanking aggro via dodge

Reduces hitrate of enemy attacks by 50%

[hot rampart]

for her mod lvl 1 is good enough

[wanton stratus]

Yeah, I don’t imagine any non-boss enemy surviving 25 sec in her range anyway

Unless it’s CC ig

[violet vortex]

Ascalon is one of the strongest in the game in my eyes because she shuts down so much

Specialist tag is unbelievably stacked

[violet vortex]

Doubting the leader of S.W.E.E.P & an elite op

The elite ops are the ones that gotta be op

[wanton stratus]

Tbh I don’t remember any other elite ops besides Blaze and Rosmontis

[violet vortex]

Recent elite ops*

The ones that stayed in npc hell

Well technically Blaze has in a way stood the test of time & Ros is op now so there is that

[bleak mirage]

@wanton stratus do I try rolling for nymph?

I got a dupe in the first six but

[wanton stratus]

She’s a stall monster

But that’s not everyone’s preferred play style

I wouldn’t go too deep

[nocturne quarry]

I opened with ||Blemishine||

[wanton stratus]

Uh

[nocturne quarry]

Saw the cost and went ||"Oh. Horn or Penance"||

It's wordle, but Arknights

[wanton stratus]

Huh

[nocturne quarry]

?

I've posted about it before I think

Check it out

Obvious spoiler for the answer

[bleak mirage]

Hmm

[hot rampart]

that is fucking yikes man

[quaint arch]

"Damn, Talulah looking different than I remember."

[tough matrix]

Damn, I got the worst one

[hot rampart]

i would say horn is the worst one here

[quaint arch]

Dupes?

If so, yeah, that sucked

[hot rampart]

the illusion of free choice

[versed compass]

did you try clearing the crowd?

[vagrant tusk]

🤣

[vagrant tusk]

41 pulls

[versed compass]

QB is pretty underrated

horn probbaly the worst one

[versed compass]

is this is the chap 4 frost nova?

[tough matrix]

no, new character

[tough matrix]

must be nice

kinda sad that when it's her banner, I didn't play the gagme

[vagrant tusk]

Yea, didn't manage to get her in her own banner
Hopefully she can help in this IS5

[vagrant tusk]

Ahh I see

[versed compass]

bullying logos mom

[hallow garnet]

this is inspiring

do we know when asca rerun might happen?

[vagrant tusk]

Which node is this?

[versed compass]

its an f3 boss

spawn camped

[vagrant tusk]

What's F3?

[versed compass]

floor 3

[vagrant tusk]

Ah ok

I kept getting other bosses

[hallow garnet]

okay i threw a 10pull on joint

got a 6*

oh god please be asca

[vagrant tusk]

Good luck

[hallow garnet]

also i realized i dont think i ever used degen

i maxed her out

[tough matrix]

tbh, I don't really care about IS anymore

[hallow garnet]

and she just...sits there

[vagrant tusk]

I didn't really care, just started doing after I have done my Postgraduate studies

[hallow garnet]

ah fk it's horn dupe

sadge

oh well

see you ascalon on your rerun ig

OR SHALL I KEEP GOING

[vagrant tusk]

lol

as long as u have enough for limited later

[versed compass]

you dont simply pull on joint when you have half the ops there lol

[vagrant tusk]

Now I only lack of QiuBai

[hallow garnet]

i have 250 pulls rn

actually i could empty gold cert pulls

[vagrant tusk]

Hmm... I'll refrain pulling if I have 250 pulls left

[hallow garnet]

buti was thinking to pick up fartooth

just for collection

180 measly certs

[hallow garnet]

yea fair

i can just tix her ig

tho i wanna tix hoederer next

someone pls get me a clue 1

[versed compass]

i love these maps that mix 2 different event gimmicks together

[hallow garnet]

also

does medic amiya need masteries?

or module

[versed compass]

i honestly have no idea my amiya is m18 working on m19

[hallow garnet]

smh

[vagrant tusk]

😮

[quaint arch]

I just do S2 for Amedic

[civic linden]

I though s1 was better, the healing is pretty crazy

[spark oasis]

S2 is generally better, particularly for IS.

Both are good though, as S1 has absurd uptime.

[vagrant tusk]

Yay naisu Ascalon helped a lot

[wanton stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/best-cry-ever-cry-sad-face-sad-crying-crybaby-gif-12364585

[hot rampart]

idk cuz i refreshed the enemy to something else

[hot rampart]

i dont want to fight enemy that respawn with bkb (immunity)

[vagrant tusk]

So far all the face off
After the first life of the enemy
There is no invulnerable period

[fluid verge]

Anything happens with the talon if I bring it to the end?

Is it a requirement for anything

[versed compass]

she seems to be missing the big shit on the back so must be chap 4 one

who dont respawn with immortiallity iirc

if its chap 6 one it will be a complete disaster

like pompeii is a disaster on his own

[versed compass]

actually i faced chapter 6 nova and she had immunity

like normal

[fluid verge]

What the fuck is this garbage :kekw:

[versed compass]

that random sarkaz caster make it annoying

but overrall not a hard map

granted you dont see mto have a squad

[hot rampart]

ouh i see

i just got ptsd from ghostnova and || special bosky boss stage with patriot and ch 6 frostnova when u go for ed3 ||

absolute fucking menace on high ascension

[versed compass]

i mean pompeii is a fucking manace in high D

pompeii only weak part used to be his low damage
high D make his damage high

[hot rampart]

waltuh can kill him before her summons die i think

or narantuya dodging shenanigans

[versed compass]

i saw someone have a duck + bear as right side fight

am not sure if that even reword relics on top of winning

[hot rampart]

i had bear + rat

i refreshed it

i should try it next time

[fluid verge]

There's an encounter where u can grab every king reloc

Provided u r at 1 hp

It's loggers af

[wanton stratus]

Tbf Closure and Entellechia have black hair so maybe he has a point…?

[hot rampart]

nothing

doodle of hope or talon of hatred is basically ways to rig your nodes rerolling

doodle of hope : +3 hope and any node you reroll won't be emergency, encounter nodes may have extra reward if u have doodle of hope

talon of hatred : allies and enemies +20% attack , any node you reroll has a high chance to be emergency

with blueprint squad u can basically fight like 20+ emergencies with talon of hatred

psa : this will make your runs longer

also i think rerolling wont reroll the node into the same node again

[violet vortex]

It will not

It can’t reroll to the same thing

And yeah blueprint + talon is how some people get those 100+ relic runs

You turn every single node (besides possibility) into an emergency fight while going through every vertical path & possibility node

[versed compass]

i assume that will be the (easy mode) win

similar to mind over meta

[civic linden]

i said no to her and valarqwin somehow called in the londinium army and gave me a stage with the chapter 10 cannon (i lost)

does the ending 1 boss have something to do with that diabolos boss? they have the same coffin mechanic...
i skipped all the story so i'm clueless

[versed compass]

[quaint arch]

Dude, playing IS#5 on my PC with Bluestacks is literally "UNPLAYABLE".

It's so agonizing. I need to upgrade if wanna play IS#5 on PC anytime soon.

[versed compass]

bro i just faced a jesstlon in face off as highest tier with a fodder unit

[versed compass]

||i get completely destroyed by white patriot :ami:||

[violet vortex]

0hope Perfumer is amazing

Going through the squads for 1 win each and the one that took the longest was the stupid reserve op one

I was trying to play with defender/support mostly but tags didn’t show much

Deepcolor working well as always

[hot rampart]

lich is the nerds of sarkaz so they are pretty knowledgeable, Fremont able to lock operators is pretty in line with his lich arts (whether it related to diablos or not is idk)

[fluid verge]

how many endings are there? 3?

[hot rampart]

only 3 for now

[fluid verge]

ah okay i cleared two of them so far

still on preorder for W

[hallow garnet]

deepcolor oooo

[fluid verge]

any1 did the 5 star only team?

[quaint arch]

Nah, I use First-Class just to abuse insta Promotion and then add some 6* later on

[hot rampart]

mine still in china after like 4 days already
something about being processed in the warehouse

[quaint arch]

Gonna grind without "playing the game", guys.

[fluid verge]

international big L pretty sure imma get mine months after yours drop

[hot rampart]

just use it to pick e2 tin man at start and play like normal by picking 6*

[fluid verge]

i have a decent amount of 5 stars

but i rarely use them so its like what do with these peeps

[hot rampart]

https://youtu.be/SDi1ivi5uZw

[violet vortex]

I’ve been a deepcolor advocate since is2

She’s cheap, covers ranged & melee, the tentacles are very strong under her skill 1

She’s exactly what a summoner should be

No relics early on she bandaids problems in your lineup

If you get good summoner relics/e2 she scales to the lategame

If you don’t get the relics for it she doesn’t help as much as slots go towards real units but she did her job earlygame

[violet vortex]

Another character you shouldn’t sleep on is Shaw, although she’s in spec tag

[hot rampart]

who is that pokemon

[ebon sphinx]

Is that even a drawback

[quaint arch]

It's Raichu

[tidal hawk]

Jigglypuff seen from above

for funsies

[mossy tinsel]

Is Nymph worth pulling?

[undone glen]

Why did i think this was something serious...

It's EA shit

[civic linden]

Good for casual reaally good for high end

[versed compass]

she is a fear stall bot pretty much

bro bosky shit are broken buffs

[hallow garnet]

ok so

cautionary tale

i threw another 50 on this cursed ass jo banner

got a degen p3

im out

i'll put on my clown makeup

[versed compass]

ran into face off duck/bear

loot i wont use anyway :ami:

ok just had a dice node turn into duck/bear fight

lol

[wanton stratus]

I feel like I tricked you into pulling but yeah, my condolences

[versed compass]

[violet vortex]

This IS you’re permanently at 1 life

King’s relics never been so strong

[versed compass]

theres a whole encounter to collect them all too

like i was at 1 hp here but only had attack king relic
now suddenly i have all

[fluid verge]

Who was Ariel trying to get

[versed compass]

i think ascalon

[fluid verge]

Damn, she's a great pick up

Staple in my is runs atm

[mossy tinsel]

I have 140 pulls excluding my orange rocks.

[hallow garnet]

it's fine. i'll get her on her own rerun

[undone glen]

Ok so just stack enough HP and that fucker Theresis won't oneshot everyone eh

[mossy tinsel]

Ben, trick me into pulling Nymph, so I can blame you and avoid taking accountability.

[violet vortex]

There are spots on the map to safely kill the clones from range like the corners

This IS drastically favors range & not blocking

[undone glen]

The annoying part is the 2nd phase really

That goddamn explosion with increased damage for each cast

[versed compass]

the trick is to get him away from her

the damage is lowered and he take more damage when you do

i think most optiomal is shu teleporting him back after he change phase

but gladiia new module is also a good option

[versed compass]

which make defender ticket even worse if you dont own shu

💀

[versed compass]

mizuki woke up and chose violence

[violet vortex]

That’s why I did the defender/supporter squad “early”

Because they really hate anyone that blocks here

[fluid verge]

for some reason my W doesnt take damage

what is going on?

[wanton stratus]

She can give you the crunch-crunch munch-munch, remember?

[mossy tinsel]

Idk about that one chief.

[wanton stratus]

Exactly

She’s a stall monster and allegedly(?) good in IS#5

Personally I pulled for her to expand and eventually surpass my simplistic play style, not because I plan to use her a lot right this instant

[hot rampart]

so u get extra relic for killing them in face off?

[versed compass]

yes

i just saw gobnik + rat too

but had only e2 kal and she get wiped

[versed compass]

they also dont put anything cool in those tickets

alchemists should have been supporters

[hot rampart]

i hate that rat

[wanton stratus]

Ascalon S2M3 done

Tomorrow she gets her module lv1

[hot rampart]

9 months later~

[fluid verge]

how do u get myths?

is it only on a clear?

[hot rampart]

myths?

[fluid verge]

the thing that u use to for is5 for permanent upgrades

[hot rampart]

yeah only on a clear

even if u lose

unless u lose at floor 1

[vagrant tusk]

You will get baby Ascalon

[hot rampart]

what ? n-n-no i mean her skin

ascalon should be getting a skin in 3 months (in CN) then +6 months for global

[vagrant tusk]

Ah
Forgot how it looks like

[bleak mirage]

Don’t be irresponsible and hold ben accountable to your actions. Do it or don’t

[mossy tinsel]

Eh? Isn't that a bit harsh to say?

[bleak mirage]

No

Do it or don’t

Live and let die

Heaven or hell

[mossy tinsel]

I know, but you didn't have to say hoe.

[bleak mirage]

Ok let me reword it

There

[mossy tinsel]

Better.

[hot rampart]

hoe? hoederer??!!

Lose 100 HP every second. Enemies that have attacked and been attacked by Hoederer receive 200 True damage every second. Attack Range +1 tile, Max HP +15%, ATK +30%. Attacks recover 5% HP and have 25% chance to Stun the target for 2 seconds

[mossy tinsel]

I don't know why Sigruna called me a gardening tool when clearly I'm a living human being with feelings and goals.

Even with double refresh?

Or are you still doing different squad clears

Instead of the op free refresh one

[versed compass]

was on supp/defender clear

so only 1 refresh a node

when tf i got ulpianus

lmao

i didnt pulled for him

[versed compass]

got aak

[hot rampart]

bro got aaked

[versed compass]

tbh only top op i want is phantom for pots

ok wtf is blue print

i have like 200 aspd or something too

pepe have 14k on s3 before getting any stacks

[quaint arch]

Turns out changing node to whatever you want (with Talon/Doodle Relic) is gamechanging.

[versed compass]

ami really nice here

[hot rampart]

medicmiya is meta start if u dont have +hope choice on d15+

or well even if u dont shes like a good starter in general

[fluid verge]

i have a question on her s2

is the true dmg only during her skill duration?

or does it stick around after it ends

[hot rampart]

only during her skill duration

[versed compass]

i know and i love it

also meta skinwise

[hot rampart]

true!

[versed compass]

i like she also get hope redection in 3 of the class squads

(another defender/supporter L, like they dont have enough)

we rise

[fluid verge]

and then u fall

[versed compass]

i might skip to the fall part who knows

[versed compass]

[wanton stratus]

Using tokens on Phantom in 2021 is finally paying off

[versed compass]

i actually used my tokens on phantom

i just want more of him

[wanton stratus]

B-but I did it before it was cool!

What potential is your Phantom btw?

[tribal thicket]

@fluid verge me to Arturia

[versed compass]

3 i think

also i did it when i get the tokens so

i remember it was before kirin reveal so i had slight regrets, but it was after texas reveal and i did not give a shit about texas

[wanton stratus]

Only a single pot needed for the redeployment time reduction

I pushed mine from 3 to 4 with the tokens

Since -2s redeployment time seemed very good

Pot 5 and 6 basically do nothing

[versed compass]

so funny this is so irrelevant now

since i play IS mostly and he either set as a guard or have no deploy

both are cause of the mod

[wanton stratus]

Damn

True

Then he’s pretty much complete at P3 with the attack up pot I guess

[bleak mirage]

Yo ben

Who do I e2 next fam

[wanton stratus]

[bleak mirage]

Everyone besides zu le here. I have already started leveling out his exp stuff like I said I would

[wanton stratus]

[bleak mirage]

[versed compass]

speaking of guard phantom

[bleak mirage]

Phantoms awesome

[wanton stratus]

Since I’m a meta slave I’d probably raise Walter

[bleak mirage]

No

She can wait till alex alter comes

Like her reveal during the whole chapter buildup and the revo in london has me kendrick to drake kinda annoyed

Tryna see that coronation queen limited but instead I got the temu 9 wish

[versed compass]

[undone glen]

Greed run is fun holy fuck

[violet vortex]

Ulpi gets sp on play relic boosts after s3 ends

[undone glen]

We didn't have the thing from IS3 here huh

What was that thing again
The relic that boost stat permanently for each battle

[violet vortex]

The Mind Over Matter squad relic?

[undone glen]

Yeah that thing

[violet vortex]

That’s Is3 unique yes, very broken too

[undone glen]

Oh yea it would be funnier if i got another summoner

[versed compass]

his skill count as redeploy for every propose iirc

so sp on deploy is super good on him

[wanton stratus]

@bleak mirage

Looks like I said it already, whoops

[bleak mirage]

Damn ben

You jumping time loops to say it again

[wanton stratus]

I will reach the Steins Gate for Lin

[violet vortex]

Does this mean I can do some funky things with on deployment relics

[bleak mirage]

Unless she does hair styling to

[versed compass]

probably

you also can cancel the teleport of ed1

with it

anyway this seems to work even if you are already at level 10

neat

[versed compass]

i have theory that they make tinman archetype a specialist instead of supporter cuz they dont want people easily have a huge loadbearing operator that easily picked in IS5

It is genuinely a cost to get Tinman when you could’ve gotten so much more in combat

A smart move

Mine reduced after pulling for Nymph and Ascalon in Mommies banner

[devout zenith]

i got ascalon in 60 pulls it's so bad bro

x10 2 offrate 6* then another 2 ascalon at 60

[vagrant tusk]

Mine's 41 for Ascalon, 61 for Nymph

[devout zenith]

50 for nymph

[devout zenith]

[wanton stratus]

What is this insane lore drop

I’m freaking shook

@devout zenith @vagrant tusk @quaint arch I can’t match you in pulls (finally back over 300K 🙏), but at least I can brag that I got Nymph in 3 pulls and Ascalon in 10 from JO

[hot rampart]

guess who came next

[wanton stratus]

What is that headhunting ticket?

Does it guarantee a 6*?

[hot rampart]

no

its a special "cheaper" ticket u can buy directly

but only for said specific banner

[wanton stratus]

Oh

So that was insanely lucky then

Jesus

[wanton stratus]

Dolphin food

[hot rampart]

they realize people werent pulling/spending for ines cuz she was right before anniversary

despite her being omega broken

then they do this for ascalon

which is surprisingly also omega broken

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

wish for your friend "i hope your fav npc release right before anniversary"

[wanton stratus]

Vigil ain’t that bad, right?

I can’t even remember who the 2024 half anni welfare was

[hot rampart]

so far all the 3 operator welfare in a row has been contender for worst 6*

[wanton stratus]

[hot rampart]

2024 it was theresa and clownslayer

2023 silencer and lessing

2022 lumen? and vigil

wow anni welfare has been like healers so far

[wanton stratus]

Lessing, right

Yeah, he seems to suck

[vagrant tusk]

U have maxed Luck stats

[wanton stratus]

On the other hand I did 140 pulls on the last JO banner and only got 4 dupes

Maybe my luck is recovering or the gacha gods had pity on me

[hot rampart]

[hallow garnet]

omg are u kidding me

well here we go again

oh wait

no

i thought asca is rerunning

but no

that was just a vid

asca rerun should be a long time from now probably anyway

[violet vortex]

Was doing well until I got hit with an actually disastrous combination

-35% hp in bizarre + a +50% atk boost to enemies while getting that fire 100 enemy swarm map

And no sweeper

[fluid verge]

How u deal with the musicians that reflect damage with their shields

I forgot their mechanics

It has something to do with the buildings at that stage

[civic linden]

Hit them until the bar below is filled, once all of them are charged you can activate them to remove the shields

[violet vortex]

Strat 1 is ignore this mechanic entirely by using Ascalon who kills all of them with the shield up

Strat 2 is playing the game correctly hitting the 4 pillars then activating after all are filled

[fluid verge]

Sigh skip mechanics with Ascalon it is

[wanton stratus]

@hallow garnet You got clue #4

[violet vortex]

I got a godrun

Shredded

284 ingots with 2 ingot attack speed relics

Also finished the condition for not retreating since everything died instantly

[hot rampart]

81 relics

[violet vortex]

73 shields

Inspirer to shield relic is busted as hell

Just keep overriding buffs you won’t use

Get more shields than if you combined them

Also got so many ingots because of Cannot’s stage

Another 50 at the other end

200 ingots for killing him

[versed compass]

in this IS the best way to get a specific relic is to simply get every relic

[hot rampart]

[versed compass]

talon is a fucking manace of a relic

until its not

even in non blue print squad

Oh you can barely tell in my ss but I was doing an infinite Surtr

Atk & speed was so high on medics that she could be sustained

Even just perfumer could do it solo that run

[wanton stratus]

Did put masteries and module on your perfumer?

[violet vortex]

M3 no mod but no reason not to max her out she’s an amazing 0cost medic

[wanton stratus]

Which skill did you M3, S1 or S2?

[violet vortex]

S2 is always her skill

[wanton stratus]

I see

I’ve seen a case being made that the healing increase on targets in her range is bigger with S1 due to S2’s attack interval increase

But on the other hand the reason one is bringing perfumer in the first place is to heal operators outside her range, and S2 is clearly better at that

Perfumer might just be the first 4* I build a mod for

[mossy tinsel]

I couldn't do that before.

[hallow garnet]

the usual 10pull

i dont really care for

i just throw it on units i dont have once

if this was ascalon i would have to go 150

Ulpianus: "FIGHT ME OLD MAN!"

[hallow garnet]

@wanton stratustell me about jessicat

cause idk shit about her

is she worth any invest?

probably not cause i literally never saw her anywhere

[wanton stratus]

Well, she can do things no one else can

Mostly because of her shield summon which is extremely tanky

If you can stomach a tank/stall playstyle she brings a lot to the table

[ebon sphinx]

I am pretty sure she's pretty good, she's just not as brain-dead to pilot

[hallow garnet]

eh but why tank stall when you can just blow up

or does she see usage in IS?

[wanton stratus]

I would imagine she could be a good starter since she blocks 3, has respectable damage for a defender and can hit aerial units, but that’s coming from someone with limited IS experience

Oh yeah, her module base effect is invis reveal

That can definitely be handy

[mossy tinsel]

JessAlt can also turn 180 degrees by putting her shield behind her.

[civic linden]

i think she is more like a very consistent unit instead of a delete button

so she is cool for a more balanced style

[hallow garnet]

ye but who tf picks defender to start with

hmm

ig i can level her

not like i got much else to do

what does she want

s2m3?

mod?

[hallow garnet]

bleh chongus can do that by default

[mossy tinsel]

Alright then, don't pull her then. Not like you need her anyways.

[wanton stratus]

He already pulled her in a single 10-pull, I’m afraid…

[mossy tinsel]

Oh. Right.

[hot rampart]

she was good in IS4

IS5 is not melee friendly BUT she has some range so that might help her abit , her shield can block the drop necrosis aoe on death enemies from hitting her

[wanton stratus]

She defo want S3M3 and at least Mod lv1, possibly S2M3
