Wait nvm 4

I forgot falkner has a variety

...And Proton

Alright forget I said anything

knotty dew
#

Be like flying and poison for some reason

#

As one of like 5 people with 3/5 Rosanta bring on flying

long oyster
#

Poison HSE is gonna be so funny

#

Because Ball Guy

rough forum
#

Enjoy

knotty dew
#

At least you get two attempts per tm at 3/5

#

Bring on rock fighting

#

Or flying fighting with 4 f2p supports

autumn basin
#

Probably my last attempt to push, already beat my personal best so far, it's enough for me in this HSE .
900/710/650/1000/900 strength

oak fulcrum
#

guess who severely underestimated foxanne's sync power at 3/5

long oyster
#

Me

oak fulcrum
#

oh I was thinking me

#

like sure I only did 650 but I did not think she would leave only mid alive at 7% with a single support ex before her on n

outer whale
#

You can get up to 925 or even 1000 with enough luck

oak fulcrum
#

yeah I think so, my limiter there is 1/5 nita

#

I still have 2 clears left to figure out who I need to EX this week and so far the answer is nobody (I'm already 17k past my initial run despite running arc Lance at 450 and only 450 this morning)

#

ok I think I have to make an EX for Nita otherwise I don't have a good damage dealer

long oyster
#

1/5 Nita isnt really an obstacle

oak fulcrum
#

only 2 potions is the obstacle

long oyster
#

It's not

oak fulcrum
#

it puts so much extra pressure on rika recuperation to be enough

long oyster
#

What's your 3rd sync pair

#

Rika

#

Yeah you're fine

oak fulcrum
#

it's the bicio clear but with more move levels on rika and less on nita

#

should still pan out for 900ish with good rng

#

but I also don't think that wants nita EX

long oyster
#

How many Rika dupes

oak fulcrum
#

completely maxed

long oyster
#

You're good

#

Your biggest issue is gauge because of bulldoze but foxanne costs 0 so

oak fulcrum
#

oh gauge is a negative problem

long oyster
#

Yeah so

#

You get 1k

#

Put electric guard on your Rika and beat N up

oak fulcrum
#

it's just keeping rika healthy enough outside of recuperation

#

and then making sure foxanne doesn't crumble pre-sync for some reason

long oyster
#

This node on Foxanne will help

oak fulcrum
#

ye I took it

#

slopponent sync + that + sync power flux

long oyster
#

You're good then

#

I 1k'd with the bicio team
Nita has been refusing to potion mpr since I got her

oak fulcrum
#

cool now I play the game of what on earth supports ciris next to pallow vs nita

#

I think the answer is still this silly 1/5 sc lyra and I reset for mpr on iris

long oyster
#

How invested is your Iris

oak fulcrum
#

3/5 ex, no r yet since I'm saving that cake for kriss

long oyster
#

You're gonna need dragon rush trip up

oak fulcrum
#

pallow trip up 9 not enough?

long oyster
#

Oh pallow had trip up

#

Nvm then

#

You only need -3

oak fulcrum
#

iris looks like a very clean cut "just take the left side and ground guard because earthquake"

long oyster
#

I did NC Nate / Ciris / SC Lyra so I didnt think of that

oak fulcrum
#

yeah I don't have nate which is my one worry this entire event

#

otherwise this would be easy

long oyster
#

I struggled to get 700str so idk about that

#

Yet

#

I was learning how to use him on the spot WEEZing

oak fulcrum
#

wait they never changed the name of champion iris's theme surely that won't haunt them in a couple years when nc iris emerges

long oyster
#

They'll realize by then I guess

thorny grove
#

What’s a good grid set for this team?

long oyster
#

I focused on sync for nate
Iris dragon rush aggravation and tm mpr
I dont have Pallow

thorny grove
#

Does Iris sync at all or just dragon rush?

tender ermine
#

I did :)

oak fulcrum
tender ermine
#

ok

#

I'm ready to start

long oyster
#

Mine nuked once I was out of Unova Circles

tender ermine
#

mind you, I do not have arc cynthia yet

long oyster
#

So if you can pick power play go for it I guess

tender ermine
#

who's easier to start off with?

long oyster
#

Depends on your roster

tender ermine
#

or just the dragon and ground types?

long oyster
#

Dragon Ground

thorny grove
#

Can someone explain the C Nate C Iris and P Mallow team for the Nita fight to me? I do not understand lol

shell oak
#

considering how my ground roster is hot ass i am pleased with this outcome

tender ermine
tender ermine
#

long time no see

long oyster
#

You could try N
Courtney, Rika, Nita
Electric Guard on Rika

tender ermine
#

also what strength increase

long oyster
#

Gimme 10

shell oak
long oyster
#

Ok so

  • Maxie :
    Bertha - Ingo - OG Cyn
    Since you dont have Arc Cynthia, I doubt you can 1k

  • Nita :
    NC Nate - Ciris - Phanpy
    You're gonna need trip up on either phanpy or hydreigon
    The most I saw was 710str

  • Zinnia :
    Annoying. Use Zerena for dps but I stopped at 350str because I hate that fight

  • Leon :
    Brendan - Arc Lance - a tech
    If you can candy arc lance to 3/5, you can do high str
    I stopped at 700 because my brendan is 1/5 so I can't potion bot

outer whale
knotty dew
#

OG Cynthia I got about 550 str

thorny grove
#

Hey, what do you do for the Lance clear? Also what units work well with him for the stage?

knotty dew
#

Died just before the opp second sync

#

About 82k in it

#

But that was pretty optimal hp luck

night sleet
#

I use my leaon clear lance and alt leon plus brendan. But you can use any sup its not important

thorny grove
#

Ok, I’ll probably just throw on Drake instead of where I had Rika. Seeing as I don’t need buffing help outside of defenses and he can help with para.
Now I just have to see if Rika fits on another team better.

night sleet
#

No drake lol

#

He is too weak

thorny grove
#

Out of these three where do you think Rika works best? I’m not going to be upgrading her so that’s why I just threw her onto that team

static oar
#

Maxie - 1000
Nita - 750
Zinnia - 500
SS Leon - 750
N - 800

knotty dew
#

Probably N

thorny grove
#

Ok what about Rika then? Is she good to rank there? I wanted to keep Brendan for the Zinnia team but I can switch him out if he isn’t really needed there

static oar
#

I'm gonna EX Rika with my Saturday champ spirits

night sleet
#

I would keep rika on leon

#

She have spe def for his round

thorny grove
#

Ok, any other adjustments to the teams? I have every dragon/ground except for Normal and SS Cynthia.

knotty dew
#

SC Lyra does a lot more at 2/5 but it's an investment

night sleet
#

I would use not courtney but fall roxane if you have hear

#

But need 3/5 it

#

Move lv are need it

#

Like lance need 3/5

night sleet
static oar
#

Word, trying to presync right

night sleet
#

Leon yes

static oar
#

I'll keep at it and see if I can't boost those scores up

night sleet
#

Its realy easy when lance 5/5 have 3 rebuffs

static oar
#

Yeah fair

night sleet
#

Just need flinch whit lance

#

Sync brendan lance

#

And befor leon sync b move finish

static oar
#

Should I build Lucas for DPS then?

night sleet
#

Just watch he need —6-6 on defs befor it

static oar
#

I was nuking with him

cunning shore
#

What lucky skill you got on lance Adam?

static oar
#

Or use someone else

night sleet
#

Yeap dps

#

Him use on sides

cunning shore
#

Can Lance pre-sync 1k with 3/5?

static oar
#

Sounds good

night sleet
#

Crit 2

cunning shore
#

Or do i need reckless 4/5¿

night sleet
#

He can if you flinch

#

Good

#

Just need be pro on qadqe

cunning shore
#

I do a good cycle

tender ermine
#

I might just stream

#

high score event

#

tomorrow

cunning shore
#

I give him super up on sync then super up on bmove

#

He deletes Leon before max move

#

But that's at 900 str

night sleet
#

Yes need b move have sup up next

cunning shore
#

Or 950

thorny grove
cunning shore
#

Idk at 1000 will he still die or nah

night sleet
#

My b move did 52k

#

On 3 rebuffs

#

So its like his 80% hp around

cunning shore
#

You got 5/5
Mine 3/5

#

Relentless really important

#

Or no

night sleet
#

I not use it

cunning shore
#

Relentless*

night sleet
cunning shore
night sleet
#

Its my grid but his sync are not important

cunning shore
#

Hmm

night sleet
#

B move deal way more

#

Sync was like 14k

#

So not realy a thing vs 52k b move

cunning shore
#

Let me try out and come back

night sleet
#

You can skipp hp recover no need extra orbs

long oyster
#

You dont use Insult to Injury ?

night sleet
#

No

#

Its too far

cunning shore
#

I melt leon

#

But die to sides

night sleet
#

This is most hard part

#

Need flinch them both insta

#

And kill fast

cunning shore
#

I have them both para'd

#

And I try to flinch

#

But 30%

#

Sad

night sleet
#

Yep but this is need

#

But you now wat to do so its just matter of resets

cunning shore
#

I already been doing this I just didn't know if I can take out Leon at 1000 str without 4/5

#

And now sides

#

More difficult

#

Lol

#

I kill Leon before his Sp.def up lol

night sleet
#

Yeap

static oar
#

@night sleet thanks for the tips

I cleared 1000 for Leon with 114k

#

I know it can be better still but that's big improvement

night sleet
#

Told you

#

You can end full hp i did 124k back then

#

But this need some rng for it

static oar
#

Makes sense

#

You also used SS Brendan right?

#

separate question
can f!Roxanne & BT Leon clear N at 1000? or is it better to give her double support

static oar
#

Think that the slower game benefits f!Roxanne more after playing the stage more

#

Get that more attack bonus

static oar
#

Yeah I was able to clear 1000 str for N with some quad-queues and a few lucky flinches from Nita's Bullzons

#

119k, another big jump for sure

static oar
cunning shore
#

Decreased my Zinnia Run without taking Brendan from it SophoKEK

#

But hey I increased my overall

#

Nerfed myself by 3k nearly

knotty dew
#

Down to 202

#

Think there's more in Leon with some more optimization of sync damage tho

#

Since all that matters is nuking middle

#

It's also much less annoying to reset with arc Steven than nita

thorny grove
night sleet
#

You don’t need zone too kill mid

#

This team for me better then lucas since alt leon low sts and accu too

cunning shore
#

I need alt leon elsewhereee

#

I had better score with Lucas instead of Anni Raihan

#

My 1000str clear is Latios Dialga arc Lance rn

#

I am trying to fit Raihan in Zinnia team now

#

Max guard dragon ascent can make things change

#

Problem is quad queue after latios gets hit

mortal timber
#

Waiting for the candy here I am so close to it

#

A day or two and I can give a final push and be free no matter what

cunning shore
#

Zinnia is unfair

#

Sure
I fucked up my queue midway

#

But man

night sleet
#

Zerrena gauge suks

cunning shore
#

What else can I do

night sleet
#

Nothing

cunning shore
night sleet
#

Hope you get gauge from grid

#

Or also rejuvenate

cunning shore
#

Not enough damage then

night sleet
#

Then more pots😒

#

So some will be alive

#

Raihan full hp can live sync

#

Zerrena no

cunning shore
#

Rng hell

#

You want me

#

To go through hell

#

I should just stop at 500k
I think I might stay top 100

night sleet
#

Rng hell its hse high score😘

knotty dew
#

400k is on

night sleet
#

Try this team if you want rng hell

#

Haha

knotty dew
#

Honestly I'd have it with potion mpr lol

#

Up to 900 str leon

night sleet
#

If you have arc lance 3/5 you can do leon 1000 str

knotty dew
#

The next level of rng hell is putting mpr on Stevens TM for more sync stacks

#

Don't have arc lance or cynthia

#

Or zerena or NC nate

#

Maximising what I have here SophoKEK

thorny grove
cunning shore
#

Yeah but she still sucks

#

I am settling for my last score

#

78k

#

On zinnia

#

Everything else +100k

thorny grove
#

Hey Jo I just noticed your Leon team used NY Clair. How good is she for that stage and did you need her at 3/5 or just EX?

cunning shore
#

Tbh, just EX should work

#

I haven't gained much from her para heal or para in general
Lance gets to para sides himself already

#

And i haven't used first aid personally

#

If you have her at 1/5 and have no problem EXing her, I'd say just EX without candying her

knotty dew
#

This game definitely has a memory leak problem

#

Reset enough times and it crashes

#

Just cost me a 950 str win on Leon LarryDead

cunning shore
#

I have a neighbor!

tidal pine
#

lol, I used the wrong grid on Rika for my N team and still won at 900 strength 🙃

#

I was wondering why she didn't have Endurance

tidal pine
#

wow, my tilt with that Salamence constantly using Stone Edge devolved into me questioning why he has X Defense All

#

my game got disconnected after I won (my internet sometimes sucks), but it still counted as a win RileyHaha

storm vector
#

top 30 has 100k less than top 1

#

wow...

#

the climb is STEEP at high levels this HSE

mortal timber
#

Wonder why

cunning shore
#

Because Zinnia is a straight up @$$&##&#+&#(#-&#-(#(#)

knotty dew
#

Maybe more in HP for Leon with potion mpr but I have no more patience for it

#

It already requires the perfect run to kill him presync

storm vector
#

my progress today was resetting maxie and N and switching courtney over to N while running bertha arcynthia and ss gio for maxie

#

after the arrangements i managed to get about 30k extra score

#

but the new N setup took almost 2 hours of resets

#

since i was running lisia courtney BT leon at 340 STR

#

no EX on the first two

#

you need to get so many acc drops

knotty dew
#

Yeah I'm done

#

There's only incremental improvements left if I reset for hours

cunning shore
#

What's your other Support options for Leon other than Steve

#

Or you just don't want to deal with sides

#

You can 800 str with better score

#

Or even 750

knotty dew
#

It's like 1/5 Nita

#

I get a much better score just cranking up the strength and using him to buff a iris sync

#

Then you can't die to sides anyway and potion mpr

#

That was 950 str

#

It's not an inspiring group

mortal timber
#

Gastrodon believer here so far

knotty dew
#

I also need to buff ciris for her sync to kill

#

I've played around it with it but nothing really compares to carrying a high str with Steven and taking a 2x modifier

mortal timber
knotty dew
#

Honestly it's cool though. Without 4 of the 5 meta damage dealers for this I would've expected like top 1000 maybe

#

Stuff like using Anni raihans max protect to tank dragon ascent was fun

cunning shore
#

I keep forgetting it's a normal Lance

#

That's why my brain went CobalionSquint

knotty dew
#

Hehe

#

Holding it up for the OGs 😂

paper mist
#

Any tips? I need to redo N since Leon is now 3/5 but idt it’ll help much. I might give a candy to Lyra so I can go all in on Gio’s grid without needing Critical Crit. I still need to make Dragon DR gear but both Rikas kinda make it difficult
(700 / 500 / 450 / 500 / 350)

#

Only at rank 363 rn and I just wanna stay top 500

knotty dew
#

Use Courtney on N probably

#

Think pykuo has a team in pins you could replicate

paper mist
#

No Nate, needs 4/5 Leon due to Go Viral 9 WoW

wooden swallow
knotty dew
#

Now I ponder it

#

Swapping SS Brendan and Arc Steven might be a better play

cunning shore
#

Trust I would've used her
If i had rika to begin with

I gave her both the OP multipliers and she fell on her face

Even with Nate lowering atk for her

Can I score 200k with this setup?

I am not sure about these teams either!
Please suggest me some teams, the order is same as HSE opponents order!

#

And I don't really want to spend resources to Ex units i barely use!

knotty dew
#

Probably best loading up something like bertha, hapu and arc Cynthia and trying for a big score on Maxie

last hatch
#

Hello, I am currently struggling to clear this event, can I clear it with these ground/dragon sync pairs ? (I can also take non ground/dragon but not sure if it will be enough for 200k)

knotty dew
#

Also worth considering some op units that don't get a bonus and trying a high strength level with a 2x bonus

night sleet
knotty dew
#

200k should be pretty comfy with those pairs Red

#

Bertha, Ingo and regular Cynthia pushed 82k alone for me on Ingo (granted 2/5 ingo so will be a bit higher)

outer whale
# prime quiver Can I score 200k with this setup? I am not sure about these teams either! Ple...

This will be rough but:

From your team layout
Maxie: that would work for 200 but you can easily hit 600 with arc cynthia instead of Zinnia and just have hapu there to mud slap. Keep bertha as the tank.

Nita: Move nita there, you need someone to lower speed. Get rid of ryuki for this. Idk what Lisia is there for either. You can use drake instead and do 250 str

Zinnia: place Ryuki here and have him tank dragon ascent with shell trap. You have no one to deal damage either, get a special attacker that's offtype. Get rid of rika too for ss brendan so you have spdef buffs. do 200 str

Ssleon, place rika here for debuffing an poison. She's not the best at 1/5 but can at least tank better here. Do 400 str

N: place DC Wally here and add Lisia here so you have a psuedo tank. And have clay focus on lower speed. Do 250 str.

#

You're going to need invest in type guard cookies

#

Hse will always be muuch easier if you have type guards on your tank

#

Maxie: fire
Nita: dark
Zinnia: dragon
Leon: dragon
N: electric

#

Hope this helps out

hollow prism
#

The funny thing is even at 700 str Nita’s EQs aren’t that scary

#

I only take like 25-30% per with Pallow Nate Iris

night sleet
#

Since its aoe

haughty haven
#

The problem is health condition

hollow prism
#

The problem is my Pallow is 1/5

haughty haven
#

That is the sucks one

hollow prism
#

She heals off the EQs if you don’t get a second spread

#

But i don’t have flinch on her

#

So i’m in deep shit on that stage

#

I prob have to lower by 100

haughty haven
#

I didn’t use flinch too

hollow prism
#

Wait what

night sleet
#

Iris need flinch

haughty haven
#

But i did at low str just to keep high Hp

hollow prism
#

I’m bad

#

Do you ever sync with Iris

#

Or is it all just Nate

night sleet
#

No

#

All nate

hollow prism
#

Ok that’s what i thought

long oyster
#

Hypothetically speaking,
My Brendan is 2/5. If I wanna B move with Lance before Leon does his Max Move, I can give my Brendan Adrenaline 1 LS and give up dragon guard, right ? HilbertHmm

outer whale
#

No

#

Do not get rid of dragon guard

hollow prism
night sleet
#

If your brendan is exr no need

long oyster
#

Oh yeah

#

Dragon Pulse right

hollow prism
#

Taking off type guard at all in HS is just a no 95% of the time

long oyster
#

My Brendan is EXR

night sleet
#

Then no need

#

If lance is 3/5

long oyster
#

I can't do it

night sleet
#

Wnd exr

hollow prism
#

Does Lance even need 3/5 for this event

long oyster
#

He is too

night sleet
#

Then you do something worng

#

3/5 lance exr can 1000 str it

long oyster
#

Team Smart Start on Brendan prevents quad queue so I can't quadqueue at all

night sleet
#

Befor sync

hollow prism
long oyster
#

No I beat Sync no issue

night sleet
#

Why you need team smat start

long oyster
#

I don't

storm vector
#

type guards for tanks and CS2 for DPS

long oyster
#

It's his passive

#

He just has it

night sleet

You need flinch whit lance

#

Mid and sides

storm vector
#

without many good dragon/ground supp units i can't do too much lol

night sleet

Then mid

Oh lance gets Flinch at 3/5

Do I Giga Impact turn 1 then

#

Uh oh

So that clear gets its str NUKED then

outer whale

It's the same node lmao

long oyster
#

Well Giga Impact will flinch

hollow prism
#

Nah i’m asking 1/5

long oyster
#

I just dont wanna hyperbeam before Brendan does Luster Purge on mid

night sleet
#

1/5 not alot can do

#

Need prob like 650-700 str

long oyster
#

Since he has Wise Entry

hollow prism
#

Why are people even putting Brendan on that clear at all

#

Brendan is negative synergy with ArcLance

night sleet

If you dont want take max move and syncs

Actually wait a minute

If you do that do you think Brendan can boost Zerena higher on Zinnia

☠️

night sleet

Arc lance need use vs zinnia

Brendan has trouble tanking crunches

Zinnia is designed to hit you with a brick wall for no reason

Just like Lana at the time

Its why you need use brendan lance and lucas

My Nate can stay on Nita then

But I don't have the ressources for that

If you want score high need invest

There’s no 5/5 grid LarryDead

I tend to avoid adam's teams, not because they're bad, but he expects you to have maxed out units LarryDead

I just want 500k

night sleet

Do you think top 1-3 don’t use it lol

long oyster
#

ofc they do

hollow prism

If score high need invested units

outer whale

I just want top 100 one of these hses LarryDead

long oyster

Any idea on how to improve on zinnia ?

tidal pine
#

Really just get better potion luck or hope she gets fully paralysed when using Dragon Ascent

#

My SS Brendan was 4/5 from a banner a long time ago, so he has Endurance (a 4/5 grid tile) to guarantee survive taking a Dragon Ascent 🙃

tender ermine

#

I could see switching Rika and SS Brendan as an option

And also debuff a lot Leon

Yeah maybe I should try more power on Zinnia with my actual team

Ingo nate iris on leon

You dont need ingo just tank betrha can add nita for flinch pots

Plus wally is not best too use

Raihan lucas better

paper mist
#

If I got a Roxanne from mix in time I’m willing to give her a candy…no dice on cakes though

#

Hoping I can get a Cynthia or lance from dailies so I can give them a candy to get 3/5 but with the uncertainty of future arc pairs I can’t just spend all my yellow candies freely (plus I just never have field candies)

outer whale
#

She will need cake to do high strengths

#

The earthquake is being spread so having the aoe sync will help immensely on dealing more damage to N

#

Unless you're using her somewhere else

paper mist

Against Nita

#

Her no cost b move and speed buffs really help Giovanni’s gauge guzzling

outer whale
#

Hmm. Donxt know her strat for nita

night sleet
#

She need on maxie or n

paper mist
#

I had a strike cake but I gave it to Cynthia cause I just could not do enough damage to Maxie fight as long as the side camerupt stayed alive. Even then I ended the fight right as Maxie was about to do a 2nd sync

Only in 700 STR I genuinely cant do 1k at 1/5

#

Foxanne on Nita isn't that good compared to her on N

#

Nita needs like

#

-3 speed for you to not get nuked to death

paper mist
#

I’m not aiming for top 100 tho just top 500 is good enough for me since there’s no extra title for top 300

Since she has ramming speed and inertia

final canyon
paper mist
night sleet
#

Arc lance

long oyster
#

She uses x speed all right before nuke

paper mist
#

Plus vGio also debuffs speed with Icy Wind which I use to kill the Flygon quickly so there’s less AoE penalty

long oyster
#

I'm just saying

#

Debuffing speed 3 times is enough

night sleet
#

Pal mallow arc lance and some tech

paper mist
#

Who would I put in that team that doesn’t fight with Giovanni for gauges though

final canyon

#

He’s a serious gauge guzzler and I can’t just use his TM every other turn

long oyster
#

I dont have v gio so no idea

night sleet
#

I use this

long oyster
#

But since you've got icy wind you have options

final canyon
paper mist
#

My options need to complement his gauges though. Hardly anyone buffs party speed in this HS. I’m using Ingo against Maxie, so that leaves Roxanne or Nita but I’m using Lyra as the tank there

long oyster
#

Nita is weak to surf right

#

Wait nvm you are using Lyra

paper mist
#

Even then Nita would be a worse option cause Fly would mess with sync countdown and Bulldoze is 3bar. Roxanne’s 0 gauges and Lyra’s 1 bar spam means Gio doesn’t have to compete for gauges.

long oyster
#

Hmmm

paper mist
#

He has Surf and Icy Wind (with Stupefy 9 so IW/Surf can do more damage) but all his moves got aoe penalty so once I kill the Flygon with IW spam I can do more against Nita with less penalty

#

I swear I’m like the only person who even has vGio for this Dx

cunning shore
#

He's so rare I don't even know what role he is

I think

And I have no idea what you can do

Guess foxanne is your best option LanceShrug

He sets sand with first buddy

And gzone on sync

And has solid surf kit

Field with Strike EXR with Haymaker and SB9 on grid for sync nuking

The icy wind one is a meme

Courtney on N is cool but not an easy fight

The sync is fine but he's very gimmicky in general

Icy wind got SpDef debuffs tho which helps

Also has SDE5 for DPS help

I have a grid plan for him but I need to candy Lyra so I can ditch Critical Crit 9

His grid is one of the most expensive ever tho

So it's really hard to use him well imo

5/5 babey GiovanniFedora

Haymaker and CC9 on the top right

IW stupefy 9 on top left
Surf brain gain 9 and TM mpr on bottom left

And all of them are in groups of 10 energy tiles

I can +10 him but that gives him access to like 1 extra tile ZinniaSnapped

hello hello my peeps

#

i'm quite new here but very well known in the land known as pocecord

#

would like to share my hse run to see if more could be done to boost my score

#

this is my run, as of now I am master rank 664

#

i'm satisfied with being in the top 1k, but idm hitting top 500

#

I hightly doubt i can reach top 100 but 500 is what i want if possible

thorny grove
#

Pre adjustment and just testing each stage, not bad

#

I’ll probably switch my Brendan and Rika around and do a 1k clear on the Leon stage, redo the Nita battle, and maybe redo N as well. For no investment this wasn’t too bad. I may invest a little to make sure I stay in 100 but I’ll do that on line the last day seeing as I did all of this in one day.

sonic pivot
outer whale
#

Courtney herself can already score high on N by herself, while Arc cynthia even at 1/5 nonexred can 800 str Maxie with Bertha and Ingo. With 3/5, you can EASILY 1000 Str Maxie

#

The nita team is optimal so you're perfect there!

#

The only other thing is swap Lucas and Lance between Zinnia and Leon. That in turn Should get you MUCH more points. @severe fox

severe fox
#

The support you see is all I have but

#

I’ll switch em around

severe fox
#

Thanks so much for that man

outer whale
#

I only suggest Ingo since potions can help if bad RNG happens.

severe fox
#

ahhh i see

#

ight then

outer whale
#

of course, if you haven't already known, make sure type guards are added to your tanks

severe fox
#

that was my main mistake for some of them ngl,

#

mallow, iris and i believe lodge cynthia have guards

#

i;ll give it to the rest of my tanks now

outer whale
#

if you want some guidance
Maxie: Fire
Nita: Dark
Zinnia: Dragon
Leon: Dragon
N: Electric

cunning shore
#

Zinnia dragon? CobalionSquint

outer whale
#

Yes.

#

She has crunch sure, but dragon stop dragon pulse from being really bad.

dp is annoying as hell

ngl i'm getting cooked Shrug

must be doing something wrong

severe fox
thorny grove
#

It’s not hard either, just gotta get an MPR or two for Bertha and Ingo potion. Also making sure Maxie stays trapped at the end for second Bertha Sync.

#

Hey Jo what were your strat and grids for Nita? I have everything but 2/5 mallow idk if that’s needed but I can invest a candy into that if needed.
Also what did you do for Leon?

outer whale
#

I'm not entirely sure about your entire roster either so I'm not sure what i can recommend aside from lowering the difficulty if need be

severe fox
severe fox
long oyster
#

You need to roll for bertha tm mpr

#

At least twice

outer whale
#

You also need sand slinger 9 on bertha

#

This allows everyone to survive sync

#

Also Skill gears. Idk if you're using them or not

long oyster
#

Are they that important

outer whale
#

If it means keepign cynthia and hapu alive with no ingo to heal, yea.

long oyster
#

...that makes sense

outer whale
#

Sand slinger 9 would be downright required too

long oyster
#

Sand slinger is mandatory I'm not denying that

outer whale
#

I actually gridded in Gritty Guardian as well

severe fox
#

Ofc sand slinger Piccolo_FacePalm

outer whale
#

With this situation, gridding endurance or going for soothing sand is up to you but i personally would go endurance

#

Sand castle 2 is required tho.

#

ALSO DO NOT USE CYNTHIA'S SANDSTORM BEFORE MAXIE SYNCS

#

cynthia has funny ground zone. Maxie has funny Ground sync which means:

severe fox
#

I’ve been making that mistake a lot

outer whale
#

It's all trial and error. 95% of HSE is tbh

severe fox
#

Yea true

#

My main issue is patience

#

Tbf should be attempting this at 12 in the morning LMAOO

long oyster
#

HSE is gonna challenge your patience no matter what

#

Especially with Maxie hitting fire blasts at -6 accuracy

#

Nita spamming Crunch

#

Zinnia.

#

Etc

outer whale
#

The worst part.

#

Crits not syncing

#

Wait

#

SYNCS NOT CRITTING

long oyster
cunning shore
# thorny grove Hey Jo what were your strat and grids for Nita? I have everything but 2/5 mallow...
#

As for Leon, I decided to swap back to Lucas

#

Instead of Anni Raihan

#

Clair boosts the zone further at 3/5 and makes it so opponents don't get the buff from it

#

Good way to delete mid and add more damage to clear sides

#

Strat vs Nita is basically just balance between debuffing and flinching your opponents

#

The more flinches, the easier time you're going to have

#

Just don't flinch before sync

#

Or mistime them

#

You only need to debuff mid speed like twice

#

Then you'll be safe trying to fit flinches

hollow prism
#

You know what? Fuck this. What if i just use Brendan on Zinnia anyway? She doesn’t have Dark moves if i can’t see them

graceful pike

Stupid modeeee ahhhh

I would swap vigilance if i can

hollow prism
#

Just dodge the crit

graceful pike
#

Dodge how

#

Lo

#

Lol

hollow prism
#

Does she have sure crit

#

Which stage is this

hollow prism
#

It was super bad bc Iris only flinched once

#

I could have denied left to get an earlier sync, or i could have flinched mid after sync to preserve HP

#

With that i could have gone for about 800 str and all 3 mons would live

#

Def crush on Iris is the big thing, it allowed second nate sync and the follow up B move to nearly kill

graceful pike
#

Always

long oyster
#

Do you guys just not use scale shot at all on nate

#

Just asking cuz I thought the point was to save TM's to mitigate gauge management once you're ready to do dmg

hollow prism
#

In fact i gridded for def lowering on it just so i can get -6 more reliably

#

Pallow’s 2/5 or higher is not necessary for a good score on Nita at all

#

Normally you only use it a few times however, Outrage ALWAYS takes precedent (duh)

#

And you wanna set Unova Circle right before Nate’s first sync, and sometimes a second one

long oyster
#

On my 700 run I would set it right before Nita sync

#

To survive better

hollow prism
#

You want to lead with an Iris Flinch on mid ofc

#

And ideally flinch on the Left hits, and the flinch on Mid after sync and TM hits

#

If you get that you can prob go 800

long oyster
#

That's way too big brain for me

hollow prism
#

It’s not that hard

#

You’d naturally be drawn to it anyway

long oyster
#

My brain too smooth for that

hollow prism
#

You’d be at 6 cd with Outrage leading into left, so iris flinch would get you a sync

#

It’s natural if you use Nate Iris regularly, and even if you flinch lock regularly

long oyster
#

I don't RileyHaha

hollow prism
#

You gotta start

long oyster
#

I did

#

That's how I got my 700 run

hollow prism
#

Once you master it Flinch is the best utility in this game

long oyster
#

With Phanpy tho cuz i dont have pallow

hollow prism
#

By a lot

#

Wait what

#

I have no idea how the Phanpy team works

#

Does she buff def by 6

long oyster
#

Yes

hollow prism
#

Can she team heal or is it only herself

#

With like potion

long oyster
#

mini potion all bot

#

2 MPRs

hollow prism
#

….

long oyster
#

2 MH1

hollow prism
#

Sounds about the same

#

But a little worse

haughty haven
#

She is better tho, bc she can just spam mini pots

long oyster
#

And eq trip up 9 so I dont have to rely on dragon rush

hollow prism
#

Yeah i suppose Mallow’s synchro heal gets wasted

long oyster
#

Also if nita opens with crunch her TM gives her dark resistance

#

Which is really good for post sync

hollow prism
#

That’s very dumb

long oyster
#

?

hollow prism
#

But you wouldn’t lead with an attack from nita tho

#

You want to flinch her from the start

#

That’s how your flinch chain is optimally built

long oyster
#

I dont remember what the issue was but my run was pretty chaotic

hollow prism
#

From my experience it’s pretty consistent

#

Besides rolling for no gleam on right

#

🤡

long oyster
#

I think I did iris tm turn 1 to compensate for wanting crunch

#

Then I started flinching

hollow prism
#

Iris TM is bad before your first sync

#

-4 move 1 (iris sync CD on tm), then you’re at 5, and Flinch brings you to 0 right?

long oyster
#

I could quad queue just fine it wasnt an issue

hollow prism
#

But Outrage has -1 sync cd too

#

So you wasted Iris sync CD

long oyster
#

Fair point

hollow prism
#

You use Breaking Swipe for Atk down and a Def crush roll

long oyster
#

Oh yeah no you're right

hollow prism
#

Iris TM doesn’t have a good place in the fight

#

If you get a refresh, 2 Iris TM and Nate Outrage is a 2 cycle sync though

#

If you get that then WailordWhale

long oyster
#

When I realized Outrage had sync accel I went for breaking swipe

hollow prism
#

Yeah Nate’s Outrage is so fucking good that it makes up for the rest of his kit being bad WEEZing

long oyster
#

Helps tanking eqs better

hollow prism
#

Like 2 of Nate’s moves are dead moves and he’s somehow in contention for the best non Arc Fair this HS

long oyster
#

I think I also synced with Iris before him

hollow prism
#

Don’t do that

#

Iris sync bad i tried that

#

It’s a trap

long oyster
#

I mainly wanted the sync buff

hollow prism
#

If you have Sprint it’s not AWFUL

#

I could see you getting another sync with it

long oyster
#

I had it

hollow prism
#

But you really have to know what you’re doing

#

And you prob have to grid for it somewhat

#

Without at least one of the 2 sync nodes you just poke Nita with a stick basically

#

Probably the Atk node

long oyster
#

And I think my last move to queue was unova circle to tank Nita's sync then dps

#

Which was funny now that I think about it

#

I let go of ground guard at that level

hollow prism
#

Ground guard is wrong

#

Dark Guard

long oyster
#

No like

#

On Iris

hollow prism
#

Nah

#

Defense crush on Iris

long oyster
#

On her grid man

hollow prism
#

Oh i’m actually an idiot

#

I forgot she had that

#

Duh

long oyster
#

+6 def, -6 atk and circle was enough to tank sync at 700str so theres that

#

And phanpy is a pot bot

#

My only fear was dazzling gleam

hollow prism
#

Gleam isn’t real

Until it hits iris for whatever reason PrycePain

I can see bt leon being a good candy option if youre a big LG streaker but it probably aint necessary for HSE

you’re telling me you don’t just do a multi to get BT Leon 3/5 and then the very next day get him 4/5 off a daily?

I’m in a similar spot where I don’t know what tech to put on Zinnia, but I think there’s a serious shot that it’s Lucas and I run NC Blue in my support slot

(And mine is EXR)

I wouldn't know LarryDead

oak fulcrum
#

Zerena kinda noodles through that stage yeah

my clear is 400 strength and it was a struggle with max defenses

Raihan nuke on middle helps get it into killable range

And Cynthia can mop up

That's it mostly

I also had head start on him as lucky skill so I could triple HS and skip first turn

though tbh idk if one off-type tank can get through Zinnia at say 900 strength to be worth offtyping for it

haughty haven

I must used chip dmg to kill Zinnia at 780 Str

Maybe that's the way DeNa wants us to beat her

Poison Stall

I used Sandstorm, trap and poison haha

I even grid for more poison dmg for Rika

I respect that

I could never go through that struggle

#

This wasn’t worth but sadly i need 500k to end this HSE soon

#

Like that team lacks 1 important things: consistent healing

So i must pray Rika dodge everything until the very end bc i still need her poison dmg increase in grid

#

Worst battle ever

#

see Pykuo you’re not dissuading me from putting my NC Blue in there as someone just missing 2 key units and investment on a third this HSE

#

or is arc Steven better?

haughty haven
#

Do you like suffering ?

oak fulcrum
#

well ideally not but 4/5 Arc Steven feels like an NC Blue level offtype support

haughty haven
#

Tbf i miss some important pair like F Roxanne or Arc Lance, but luckily i have enough supp

haughty haven
#

I saw he can even duo at 1000 Str against Leon

oak fulcrum
#

nowadays I would only consider offtyping for one of them

haughty haven
#

And he is weaked to Ghost Type

#

So i really think you should drop Drake and use Arc Steven there

#

And maybe use Tech pair there too

For :

is there any way I can switch units around to get a more decent score

Also could be worth bringing some op units and running a high str rather than trying to make some other units work

Might be worth looking at some op pairs and carrying a 2x multiplier yeah

storm vector
#

I tried SST red with 2.0x multiplier on Nita at 407 str and only got 33k

#

ain’t worth

#

and it’s no less rng hell than what I currently have

knotty dew
#

Yeah it's tough

#

Drake really can't take a hit

#

Even when ex

storm vector
#

well I gave him ground guard and he still needs good rng to live a sync

#

then clay can endure long enough for zinnia to sync and win

#

I can try to carry with arc steven but that’s probably gonna want at least 500+ str to get more and I’m not confident

#

I would put Cyrus on Nita though

#

Maybe Cyrus, Zinnia and a rain support

#

Try running up a total there

#

Hydro pump does a lot of super effective damage

storm vector
#

then what do I do for zinnia

#

well I’ll try that arrangement tomorrow so ty for advice

#

308k is reasonable given this roster probably so I can say I’m satisfied

#

I think you did really good, considering your roster

#

Yeah you're doing much more than I'd expect

#

Up to you if you think it's worth resetting but not sure you're gonna get much more

Hi beautiful peeps, how’s it going?

#

Around top 60 last time I checked

#

I lost like 9 ranks since I reached 500k
I think top 100 is guaranteed so I'm chilling

oak fulcrum
knotty dew
#

I'm down to 207

#

At this point probably top 300

#

Maybe pushed out of top 250 on last day
