novel fog
#

Don't think I can beat it

#

That's it

inner heath
#

I was lucky when I beat this with 1/5 team, usually it took 1-2 days with the rng but this one took me like 2-3 hours back then

novel fog
#

All were 1/5??????

inner heath
#

not this exact team but yeah 1/5 ncleaf anni N and ncblue

novel fog
#

...

#

That's nowhere close

#

I just need to get Leaf to 3/5 I guess

inner heath
#

she's meta in many modes so it's not like you candy her only for this

novel fog
#

Yeah for sure

fast pendant
fast pendant
#

yes

novel fog
#

HOW CAN I STILL NOT CLEAR THIS STAGE THEN

#

Do I suck hard

fast pendant
#

you literally chocked a win

novel fog
#

I've been trying to clear this one for like

#

6 hours?

#

I'm not sure if I should sync twice with red

#

They get pretty low anyways from the blizzards

fast pendant
#

if that's how you feel, adapt your gameplan

novel fog
#

I've been doing
leer -> relic song -> red tm
leer -> relic song -> blizzard
leer -> ice beam -> sync with rosa
leer -> ice beam -> relic song
leer -> blizzard -> rosa tm -> sync with red

#

Which did work pretty well

fast pendant
#

using ice beam before sync is a big mistake

novel fog
#

the two ice beams are just to interrupt triple axel

fast pendant
#

you're not denying anything and you put them in resilience

novel fog
#

and the other move

novel fog
#

Oh the first one denies the triple axel

#

I have 5 SMUNs when I sync

shrewd marten
#

Wait ncleaf is 1:5?

#

Then just sync for rebuff and cake ex

true lagoon
#

actually what about 3/5 ny wallace for darach

#

has anyone tried that

shrewd marten
#

I did darach with ncleaf adaman ssmorty

novel fog
shrewd marten
#

Just replace adaman with ncleaf should be the same

#

No I just mean that her sync isn’t as powerful as I was saying before

#

Cuz you don’t have power play

novel fog
#

Yes, I know

#

She still hits like a truck

#

But yeah

#

3/5 is a massive upgrade

jade grotto
#

Had to give Bertha mp refresh for stealth rock to beat darach

#

At least I've finished all the UB

#

Wondering for who was darach tailored, I would say NC silver, but it can't set stealth rock so I don't think is him

true lagoon
#

its supposed to be for ss diantha

#

but shes iffy

jade grotto
#

But ss diantha doesn't set stealth rock either

#

I mean I ended up using NC silver, SS diantha and Bertha

#

I mean there aren't much units that set stealth rock, so I don't think is 100% tailored for some specific limited units

#

But ss diantha and NC silver definitely work well against him

#

Or is sandstorm enough to counter darach?

warm haven
#

it was made for lodge steven CynthiaSmug

jade grotto
#

Unironically 6ex lodge Steven can work I think

#

His DPS is a joke but his nuke is quite good

inner heath
#

I cleared with lodge steven, thought more players would use him but only seen a few clears with him

jade grotto
#

Ofc I'd you have NC silver and ss diantha those are better options to clear with

inner heath
#

kek only 1 steven clear in the doc

jade grotto
#

Considering he can give himself seun, his nuke is one of the strongest rock type nukes on type

#

At least factoring seun

#

If og Steven released later i'm pretty sure meteor mash would have been a 4 gauge move

warm haven
#

yeah lodge steven was overlooked for darach

jade grotto
#

I guess not much people have 6ex lodge steven

inner heath
#

He’s the budget clear. But most people offtype. 5/5 diantha is expensive

jade grotto
#

I used 1/5 diantha, but I had 3/5 6ex silver

inner heath
#

back then, with silver now it's easier

jade grotto
#

Yes I guess 6ex Steven could have replaced silver

crude marten
#

shes not even a rock type unit

low coral
#

UBs I would say are more so designed with a core instead of a single unit

#

Anabel still requires someone to set rain for Cerena

#

Adaman doesn't remove Psychic Terrain from Argenta

crude marten
#

leaf is such a complete set though

#

she just does everything thorton asked for

low coral
#

Leaf is the closest, yeah, although she still wants someone to pair with the mixed damage

#

As she's generally physical damage or special damage via sync, not both

crude marten
#

true DawnNom

low coral
#

So the complement for Cerena is prob Variety Lyra or KriSS, Leaf I think they wanted Red or Hilda, Darach is Diantha and it looks to be Silver, but that was before he came out, so it could be Bertha, and Argenta is Adaman + Acerola

#

Palmer looks to be Rei + Hop to me

warm haven
#

Yeah

#

they with SSAC/NC Rosa make a great combo

low coral
#

And Lucy is def Adaman, but idk who I would say is the second

#

Sounds like Courtney, although she doesn't beat poison by herself

warm haven
#

Kinda SS Gladion too

fast pendant
#

I find Fall Roxanne to be more than Adaman still

#

the only thing fall roxanne had issue with ws poison which changing LS now make so are a non-issue

crude marten
#

hows lucy damage compared to argenta lets say?

#

havent actually met her in rally

fast pendant
#

as long as you don't let her buff speed

crude marten
#

argenta gets rain and psychic terrain multiplier while lucy has poison and speed multiplier

fast pendant
#

very low mdg

crude marten
#

since you can just ignore argenta psychic terrain with proper tank maybe you could ignore lucys speed buff too?

fast pendant
#

nop

#

it's a 90% buff

crude marten
#

i see

low pilot
#

Basically Lucy is "Don't get poisoned, ez"

fast pendant
#

for sync and moves

#

and the other thing is that her sides are the bulkiest

warm haven
#

VGio seems a like pretty good option for that

fossil fjord
#

Well, aside from speed

slate bison
#

you either antitoxin everyone or time your sun

true lagoon
peak mist
#

In terms of upcoming ebe/ub coming in this month Palmer is the last one remaining for the month yea?

#

Just making sure I’m not misreading one of the things in summary. If there’s anything left on similar levels for gems

stone scarab
#

Palmer is the last "difficult fight" content of the month, yeah.

peak mist
#

What’s the event near end of month with GeetaTired on the picture?

#

Don’t really get what sort of event they’d feature her in that late into her banner

low coral
#

It's a event featuring some Passionate Spirit characters

#

Mainly Geeta, Palmer, and Dana

shrewd marten
#

Working on it

#

Recording hard tho

fossil surge
#

I've heard that darach isn't too bad compared to the other ubs in terms of unit requirements

#

But nc silver is like my only good rock pair

#

And my only sand setter is acerola

#

So maybe not

crude marten
#

its doable with just silver

#

a good support and another sand setter should guarantee you a clear

fossil surge
#

He does set sand twice

#

I can send my roster if you want

crude marten
#

no bertha?

fossil surge
crude marten
#

acerola is good enough

warm haven
#

NC Silver + Accerola should beat darach even at 1/5 both

#

you need is a decent support

fossil surge
#

I have acerola at 2/5, but yeh silver is 1/5

#

Lemme grab a ss of my supports rq

#

There we go

warm haven
#

hm, i think SSA Cynthia could work

fossil surge
#

I was thinking bp morty cuz johto

#

I do have 1 of each candy if that changes anything at all

fossil surge
warm haven
#

Morty would be crushed by +4 atk brave bird

fossil surge
#

Ah.

#

Is that at the start?

warm haven
#

After the first sync

fossil surge
#

Ah okay

#

Tbh i haven't done an in depth read on darach, all ik is that he wants to be taking damage from a field effect and ofc rock weak

warm haven
#

I really think that cynthia is enough but if you dont wanna struggle and like rosa (i see you have her lvl 150) candy her would be worth

fossil surge
#

I do in fact like rosa

#

I'll try with cynthia and if that doesn't work I'll candy rosa

#

But tyvm

#

Maybe this'll be my first ub clear

crude marten
#

you dont need to candy rosa for this

#

you should be able to take down darach before second sync

left crow
#

What would be a good team to beat ethan?

grizzled portal
#

Substitute anemona with og kris

#

Give her some investment and she carries

rotund oasis
#

That 3/5 Ariana though 😮

grizzled portal
#

If you don't wanna ex og kris then you can try with other options

#

Ss kris is the most important part, and ss lyra should make your life easier too

valid raft
#

Where would Lucy rank among the UBs?

#

In terms of difficulty

low coral
#

Gotta see in practice, Lucy is prob the most unique among the UB requirements

left crow
true lagoon
#

cuz she kinda fucks penny up

left crow
#

Yes

#

Just ethan now

true lagoon
#

ethan is hard if you dont have ss kris or ss lyra tbh

left crow
#

I have both

true lagoon
#

oh

#

then just use ss kris and regular kris

left crow
#

I just need a striker who can weather both

true lagoon
#

shit gets trolled hard as fuck

left crow
#

Do i need kris exed? I don't feel exing her

true lagoon
left crow
#

Ugh

true lagoon
#

ive had her ex’d since forever ago

#

also ethan has wise entry x3

left crow
#

I'll try i guess, but it's such a shame to ex her for this alone

true lagoon
#

so physical only

true lagoon
#

though sides are probably the issue

left crow
#

I'll see what i can do

valid raft
#

I wonder, will there be an off-type strat for Palmer?

rotund oasis
#

I think you could run Ash, Chase and NC Blue 😮

jade marsh
#

I’ve been really busy i’ll try to update the EB doc in a bit 😭

stable tundra
#

SS Morty + Silver+ SS Lyra

#

Remember the turn order so your team takes least damage possible

stable tundra
shrewd marten
#

You know what’s funny

#

I beat the f2p clear

#

But I did an oopsie

#

But it didn’t matter cuz the flinch was the most important and not the fact I only had half of inertia buff

#

And it shall be the only version I record

#

Can one of you ping me like 6 hours from now for the clear

#

I go sleep now

#

Night

valid raft
shrewd marten
#

Waoooooow

high harbor
#

any tips for koga?Im on R4 and he keeps buffing his defense and being annoying

stable tundra
#

#1009554906568462476 is the right place

low coral
#

https://youtu.be/GQPu4BC2gVE?si=yNhC-XglzswXkh6v pairing Silver's flinch with freeze to extend the stun, gives you 9 Sync Buffs when Thorton is 2 countdown away from 2nd sync SeleneLul

This video is, by far, the best example of what the Stun Extension technique is. I mainly did this to showcase NC Silver as I just really like the character on PM stories, but I got that bonus to make the run more interesting too - this ended up putting me with 9 Sync Buffs while Thorton still had 2 countdown left to his 2nd sync even.

jaunty coral
#

Can this work without 3/5 ss kris

stone scarab
#

Considering what her role on that team is meant to be, I would say probably

final yacht
#

Please use your stamina

#

I am in pain looking at this

jaunty coral
#

I can confirm it work

#

But you have to do it quick because base kris survive with endurance

final yacht
#

Lyra can pretty much permaflinch the stage it's fine

jolly stream
#

Is it Palmer is tough?

stone scarab
#

His fight is difficult, yes

#

You can check the pins to see a document that goes over what exactly he does

stable tundra
#

Yes he is. You have to clear before his post sync Max Move, and even then most of teams dont survive his first sync

valid raft
warm haven
#

i wonder if that could work with anabel

valid raft
#

Nah wait

#

It wouldn't work

#

Because needs rebuff

low coral
boreal abyss
#

I can't wait for vgc ursaluna RaichuComfy

valid raft
boreal abyss
#

just to laugh at lucy trying to poison me when instead imma burn

low coral
valid raft
#

Actually

#

I'm half stupid and half mid

#

I forgot Thorton needs both special and physical

low coral
#

Since you need a lot of debuffs

valid raft
low coral
#

Wdym glitch?

valid raft
#

The freeze at the end

low coral
#

No, that was just a bug on the replay

spiral summit
#

Maybe that just a replay bug

valid raft
#

Ah

low coral
#

It didn't happen the first time I watched it

#

If it's still up, you can check yourself too, it shouldn't freeze

valid raft
#

Hmmmm

warm haven
#

Btw how is your clear in the replays already? RosaThink

#

does that show the most recent clears?

low coral
#

I did that yesterday, although I also recorded yesterday

#

The replays update pretty fast, but they're not most recent clears

#

They're a selection

#

One thing they don't do, for example, is repeated teams

warm haven
#

i see

low coral
#

Idk if there's a bias towards certain profiles as well

#

Once I got my first replay in, I get my clears shown in-game all the time

fast pendant
#

Maybe there's something for new clears as in, different teams that haven't been used before

#

Or just not often

rotund oasis
#

Okay. SC Steven (1) + NC Hop (3) + NC Rosa (3R) against Palmer

#

is it possible?

#

with SEUN, 2x Fighting Rebuff, and a big nuke with NC Hop?

#

(Assuming NC Rosa Sync -> NC Hop nuke) ?

fast pendant
#

You beat Palmer, but sides beat you

spiral summit
#

Side has very strong move

fast pendant
#

If you don't have rei (ironic) might want an aoe nuker or another dmg dealer to wear off the sides

valid raft
#

You mean EXR Riley

low pilot
#

Imagine spending one month's worth of BR shop

#

On EXR Riley for 300 gems

fast pendant
#

I think would be the best option, but there could be some others

rotund oasis
true lagoon
#

bea probably doesnt have enough damage

fast pendant
#

Hop wouldn't want Strike Role

warm haven
#

why not RosaThink

low coral
#

Hop's best role would be Field imo

true lagoon
#

its the same situation as nc serena right

#

good at st debuff not very good at aoe

low coral
#

Hop's setup is already annoying single target, yeah

fast pendant
#

Only inertia works aoe

low coral
#

AoE is even worse

fast pendant
#

Which makes his sync weaker than a strike

low coral
#

Sprint would also work for Hop, but Field is my prefered one

true lagoon
#

why didnt they give him relentless instead of smarty pants lol

low coral
#

Because they wanted to showcase his Sp. Def debuff passive

warm haven
#

Well he debuffs both defs

low coral
#

But the Sp. Def debuff is pretty meh all around to me

#

Fighting barely has special pairs

warm haven
#

he already has an innate relentless

low coral
#

But it's cool for Solgaleo and Wally

true lagoon
low coral
#

Even Diantha is redundant with Hop and uses Defense anyway

warm haven
low coral
#

I mean, idt Hop is great atm already

#

It's more so he lacks competition

rotund oasis
#

hmm the best idea i've got right now is NC Blue, Ash and Chase 😐

#

Chase is 1/5

#

since Vigilance is gonna be useless here

#

Adrenaline for chase and NC Blue

fast pendant
#

I would wait for Palmer to release since most haven't been able to test it out with different comps

#

There's not much to be done rn

low coral
#

It has been a year already and that Sp. Def didn't really make a difference I would say

warm haven
#

Nah i think he's underrated. He has crazy damage it's just that he's weird to use

low coral
#

Outside of a slightly better matchup vs Anabel

warm haven
#

He has cleared anabel as a solo dps, not many units can do that

final yacht
valid raft
#

0 Sp. Def. debuffs

final yacht
#

what the fuck

boreal abyss
#

no comment

low coral
#

I think Field would improve him since it both makes his setup easier and less reliant on MPR

valid raft
#

Only Kanto Circle + 2 electric rebuff

rotund oasis
#

so... i'm in the right path then. 🙂

#

1/5 Chase though HMM

valid raft
#

Which is possible

warm haven
low coral
#

What is that calc for?

valid raft
#

rei's team

#

NC Blue/Ash/Chase

low coral
#

I know that, but for what?

valid raft
#

Palmer

low coral
#

Palmer? Or the medal?

#

Hmm, idt that looks correct

#

1m damage with 2 sync buffs?

valid raft
#

4 sync buffs

#

No it's 3

#

Oh wait, I set it to electric-weak

low coral
#

Yeah, I was gonna say no battle would even bother existing lol

valid raft
#

Still deals a lot of damage

rotund oasis
#

Delicious.

valid raft
#

Oh wait, I forgor Kanto Circle

boreal abyss
true lagoon
#

when are we getting the electric ub

valid raft
#

There we go

rotund oasis
#

hmm actually can you do it for like +4 or +5 SMUN?

surreal maple
#

Think I'm good to go for Palmer UB?

valid raft
#

Is that the team I suggested?

rotund oasis
#

yeah Chase 1/5, Ash 3/5 and NC Blue 3/5

#

i dont think i can hit +10SMUNs

valid raft
#

No, best you can do is 7, 9 if you can MPR NC Blue's TM once

rotund oasis
#

+4 or +5 is something i know i can do at least.

#

Fishing for NC Blue's TM

valid raft
#

2 from Chase, 2 from Ash and 3 from NC Blue minimum

rotund oasis
#

hum i see.

spice basin
#

Does Palmer have endure?

low coral
#

No

spice basin
#

Well, 'endure' in UB context

#

Ah

valid raft
#

This is with 7 SpMUN stacks

rotund oasis
#

/me nods

#

yeah i'm down for that.

#

just gotta give the two supports Adrenaline/Headstart or something

rotund oasis
#

wait 3/5 Chase? D:!?

valid raft
#

I mean, it kinda doesn't matter

rotund oasis
#

wait what's this for?

stone scarab
#

LG stuff i imagine

rotund oasis
#

Oh

valid raft
rotund oasis
#

the other nodeds are more expensive. gotcha.

low coral
#

I don't understand the build

#

Who's tanking there?

valid raft
#

Not sure TBH

#

Either Chase or Blue

low coral
#

Then you're not getting Ash's own SMUN

fading walrus
fast pendant
#

I don't see how are you getting so many moves up

novel fog
#

I'm back, this time I have to clear this stupid UB

#

Why is this guy not getting frozen 😫

valid raft
# novel fog

Because Thorton got slept, he woke up and triggered Resilience

novel fog
#

Ah I didn't notice that

#

How am I supposed to deny SR

#

This is so chaotic

#

Also, I am pretty much forced to use ice beam on the right side to deny SR, which won't allow me to actually sync with 3 SMUNs from blizzard but only with 2 SMUNs from Rosa's TM

#

This was such a lucky run, I got like 4 potion MPRs

#

I think CS2 could be the answer, but I can't rely on Leaf not getting critted without Vigilance

stable tundra
#

Its 50% chance GladionSip

novel fog
#

Only if my Leaf had endurance

novel fog
#

According to what Runner said, it shouldn't even get to the point where he syncs me twice

#

But I absolutely cannot see how I can kill him prior to that

#

I successfully did my quad queuing as well

novel fog
#

What have I done wrong

valid raft
novel fog
#

Yes

#

Oh

#

Ahhhhhhhhhh not really

valid raft
#

Because I'm pretty sure you can turn deny the Avalugg

novel fog
#

Are you talking about the ice beam?

#

If so, I accidentally pressed on Steelix

#

The recording does not record my voice but if it did, you would've been able to hear me screaming

valid raft
#

Also, if there's sun active, no one can be frozen

novel fog
#

especially when I realised that I could've cleared it if I didn't

novel fog
valid raft
#

You played almost perfectly

novel fog
#

:o

valid raft
#

I think there were few misplays on your part

novel fog
#

Is it just the ice beam

#

what else?

valid raft
#

What move level is your NC Leaf again?

novel fog
#

1/5

#

Others are 3/5

valid raft
#

Oh

#

If your NC Leaf was actually 3/5, then it's an immediate win

forest root
#

Just now trying to figure out a good team for Ethan part 2

#

I’ve got Eusine at 3/5 and EX’d

novel fog
#

Tho I can't access 2 tech candies at the moment

#

Power play and Insult to injury can carry her damage pretty hard

exotic trail
#

is there a way to get crunchy cookies whe you have already done battle villa?

viral ocean
#

Redo it or use stamina on training

#

There’s a new one called lucky scroll area and it gives crunchy cookies

exotic trail

It might be, but I haven't tried yet

NC leaf is the goat of ub

#

You have tried flinching with SST Red right?

exotic trail
#

not yet on this one.

#

the hau one I got ssgladion so

Then you can destroy Hau's EB without any problems whatsoever

exotic trail
#

...I said Penny

#

oh well. Guess I'm not gonna beat that one

#

surely I thought there must be some way but

#

its not like I don't have any powerful pairs.

#

I'll find try to find a way

errant kite

and you're just nasty and sarcastic

exotic trail
errant kite
#

this is not a paid help channel

exotic trail
#

what is rude is when people don't read my messages and accusing me of things.

#

its like having rotten tomatoes thrown at you..

grave pendant
#

Even then, don’t treat paid workers horribly, folks

grizzled portal
#

HilbertHmm what tomatoes were thrown though

errant kite
#

watch your attitude if you expect to keep using these channels

#

that's all i'll say

exotic trail
#

I suppose when you're accused of things because people don't take the time to read context?

#

i didn't know sticking up for yourself was attitude. I'm sorry. I'll remember next time.

grizzled portal
#

Well it's fine it seems things have quieted down anyway

if you would like, that's fine

Got relatively close but that broke my spirit

grizzled portal

The physical side of their hp bar seems rough with just Leaf's B move

novel fog

I was one away

All I need is basically HS1

imagine having the 3rd anni trio buffed and ex'd to optimum but the only thing stopping you from beating penny was the fact you never did the last legendary gauntlet

Even if you failed to kill Penny before her sync, this happens

2 questions: what should I grid in acerola, and how should I go about clearing with this team?

novel fog
jade grotto
fossil surge
#

I believe sand is enough?

#

Not 1000% sure

inner heath
# fossil surge 2 questions: what should I grid in acerola, and how should I go about clearing w...

this won't work
you need a nuke and a dps, silver can only dps at 1/5, no nuke
you need debuff, not only they're tanky but they also hit hard
you also need more healing, 2 potions from cynthia are not enough
acerola is a deadweight when she can only provides sandstorm, and you still need mpr multiple times if silver is the only dps
you want all your units to fit multiple roles
all 3 are underleveled

fossil surge
#

I do have 2/5 nc rosa

#

And 1 strike tech and support candy

#

I posted my supports earlier but I can post the rest of my roster

novel fog
#

It also looks like NCSilver is not even EX'd

fossil surge
#

He isn't but I can ex him

novel fog
#

You should listen to Lost

#

Do what they say

fossil surge
#

Mhm I def will

inner heath
#

not that much better, you can try, but you still need a sync nuke
usually need 2 dps/nuke and 1 support for UB. if you use 2 supports at least 1 should have some utility kit like debuff, of buff multiple stats, WTZ...
if you use 1 dps then they must be 3/5+

fossil surge
#

I have a 2/5 olivia but she's old

inner heath
#

olivia is not clearing this, 3/5 silver and 3/5 ncrosa and a 3rd might be able to do this
do you mind posting your roster

fossil surge
#

Yeah sure

#

pomatracker gives me trouble on my phone, so here are screenshots

#

The only notable addition is nc silver since these are a lil old

inner heath
#

yeah i don't see a viable 3rd member even if you 3/5 rosa and silver, save your candies. you need another wtz/damage field unit and a debuffer
just wait til you got more units, the fight is permanent, no need to rush

novel fog
#

Isn't gordie fine

novel fog
#

But they don't have Paulo

inner heath
novel fog
inner heath
#

still need to use candies for other units but don't recommend until someone can test that team

marble flume
#

I would advise against candying specifically for UBs in general. They’re permanent content, so sooner or later you’ll likely candy the required Sync Pair(s) naturally

I wouldn't rule out so quickly that they can clear it as it is

Hot damn someone did a f2p clear of penny?

f2p is fairly difficult

But if you have SS Morty at least he makes it viable with other accessible pairs

Still that damn impressive

Actually now that I think about it, in the doc there's a f2p clear

iirc

Check pins

grizzled portal

If you have either SS Kris or SS Lyra you won't have an awful time

The problem is not having either

true lagoon

the solutions to ethan are all mfs

which is the issue

grizzled portal
#

Basically yes

novel fog
#

I still can't beat stupid Thorton

peak mist
#

How’s Neo silver doing ub wise in his first few days? Do we think he’ll contribute to a10 rally much, or does he not have the toolkit to answer much ub wise?

#

Just trying to help myself gauge how valuable units are in ubs so I can more easily gauge who to save for a10 in that mode

low coral
#

He is capable of beating all of them, but he's not necessarily a hard carry

#

Pretty useful on most of them still

#

Thorton would be his worst matchup

peak mist
#

Because of the defense flipping I assume?

true lagoon
#

and sides are x3 phys def

peak mist
#

Fair. So due to phase one and sides special units have an edge in Thorton then

fair sorrel
#

I may skip on the upcoming UBE as I only have Rei and Anni Cynthia

silver spruce

I think Cynthia Riley and Rei should be able to clear it

grizzled portal

Rei and cynthia are the most important parts it feels like

Dps check without Hop might be rough though

#

WHY THE HELL DOES HE STEALTH ROCK SO EARLY

silver spruce

I think it’ll mainly fall to either Riley sc diantha or nc hop for the third

I’ll prob mess with the Palmer fight but more than likely without rei or any other strong fighting dps I’m just sol

novel fog
#

Is it possible to achieve with no speed ?

grizzled portal

I feel like if it's stressing you out you should probably return when you have better tools, like 3/5 leaf or Hilda even

BUT

RUNNER DID IT

grizzled portal

Let's assume that I do

Is it possible

or I'm just doing something wrong

peak mist
#

Cause I know that tile activation like mgr and the like effect sleep flinch freeze timings

It's probably extremely hard to pull off

stone scarab
#

yeah for sing "quad queues" you need a passive like team stoic or force field iirc

novel fog
#

And I pretty much failed a run because of not being able to sync fast enough

novel fog
#

This is stupidly hard

#

I GOT IT

#

Aight, hopefully I don't fail to deny rocks

#

This is basically relying on consistent quad-queueing

#

otherwise it's seems to be impossible

true lagoon
#

yeah sleep queues are hard

novel fog
#

Does it matter if I use Ice beam to deny earthquake? Resilence only triggers when Articuno wakes up anyway

The thing is, will it make it so SR comes even earlier than usual?

warm haven

fossil surge
#

@fast pendant sorry to bug you but did you end up doing that run with my team? For darach ub

peak mist
#

looking at the pending clears of curiosity, apparently an ash + sstred duo for darach got posted twice in there? MarleyWhat

#

was digging through them to find out what bosses people already did geeta clears on

formal crescent
#

I'm having trouble with this because Cynthia gets one shotted with sync

peak mist
#

just curious, since not ex im just assuming prob not focused as heavily on her sync

formal crescent
#

Champion theme

#

... I could probably just use NC Blue come to think of it but idk if the paralysis is reliable

peak mist
#

what move level is ncblue

formal crescent
#

3/5

peak mist
#

just grab HE2

#

easy

formal crescent
#

Oh right why didn't I look at his grid

#

Ingo, Emmet and NC Blue crushed it

peak mist
#

Ngl I don’t know why Darach barely gets hurt here lol. I’m just messing with budget team ideas vs Darach atp

#

Guessing it’s the gradual heal

#

So prob will still need a big nuke to go with Geeta here

#

cause zones should be enough to disable passives right?

jade marsh
#

It’s the heal

#

Just by the way it works you need to do more than 36k damage per turn to kill him in that state

#

Very few units can combine to output that level of dps so the only way around it is nuke or disruption to lower the dps requirement

#

And yes geeta disrupts his passives

peak mist
#

so then for a budget clear the puzzle becomes finding a nuke that fits here...

#

dawn and blue dont work as budget tanks on their own from what im seeing, need spdef up too due to sides, and blue lacks on the healing side

low coral
#

Also, Geeta gets considerably weaker single target due to the loss of 2 Move Ups

#

She still does more to that specific target than when she's AoE, but difference is a lot smaller than the usual

peak mist
#

made progress with anabel and mayziken but, mayziken dies to sync sadly

#

even in mega

#

figured shed have a bit more bulk than that on her under double walls

#

if anyone has any ideas for third slot to get mayziken to postsync without a second mf on the team thatd be great, or some other PF/seasonal/etc nuker to there.

#

cause i honestly kinda want to try to do darach with a budget clear for fun, just something to do this week lol

true lagoon
#

is this for thorton

#

oh darach

inner heath
#

3/5 geeta is budget? GeetaTired

peak mist
#

SophoKEK well, relative to using like 3 mfs and calling it a day

inner heath
#

using the least MF possible, sure GladionSip
but like using 3 MF at 1/5 is still cheaper than 3 pokefair at 3/5

peak mist
#

well idk what else to try budgetwise on ubs, partially its for getting a sense of what i can get away with in rallies, damage output wise

inner heath
#

for nuke there's bertha or gordie

#

you might need at least 1 MF tho

#

or you can use 1/5 grid on MF DawnNom

peak mist
#

cause i know therell be times where i have next to nothing leftover from doing 2x stages in rallies, barring like one counter to each boss or something

at least in terms of my exrs

anabel is a very strong defensive support so hopefully it’ll work

Before nuking I mean

wait this means i can just run clearheaded on everyone

whee for status shield

#

anabel unironically the biggest carry

#

bro it didnt crit again

Most likely that’s due to being off-region

Managed to upload my video

I’m not able to kill the sides after middle

That’s my biggest issue

Their aoe takes out too much hp from velio

this is the time where you should deny the sides with sync

Not a perfect run but yeah

crude marten

dont sync the mid again

short gate

?

Wdym?

crude marten

spread velio sync to sides

short gate
#

The middle will double sync if I don’t kill it though?

rotund oasis
crude marten

since the sides will spam clanging scales when mid dies

short gate
crude marten

so you have to chip everyones hp

theres still a lot of turns left before hau sync

spread the damage to sides

you can heal up rosa

Is Darach easier with the rats or the new Silver?

As long as you have a field active, Darach's defenses won't be multiplied. SO weather terrain or zone.

clear walrus

Good to know , I can try Silver with Diantha and Bertha

I can always fall back to rats with Blue

crude marten

i would bring support instead of bertha

silver support + diantha/bertha

well you likely need another source of sand

Paulo/Ingo are ideal.

clear walrus
#

Yup, I needed a healer there

jade marsh

Rest is right

spark isle

I believe it all depends on what units you have

I'm pretty sure darach is a lot easier now for me due to having silver

fading walrus
#

Those two don't do a lot in that fight tbh

jade grotto
#

Difficulty of UB varies with your roster, harder ones can be easier if you have the proper units, and easier ones may be harder if you don't have the proper counters

#

Thorton seems pretty hard, you need mixed damage, and it spams.strong AOE

fading walrus
#

There's also units who outperform in every UB

#

Like NC Serena and NC blue

#

And leaf

So having those definitely makes most of them easy
