strategy

[proud drift]

I do

[livid delta]

[toxic bridge]

ayo shu

[proud drift]

Hg hasn’t given us an alloy stage since I started

[glass monolith]

I dont farm chips because i farm events, i don't have chips to build operators, i don't have correct material for shit i need, infinite cycle during which my LMD just climbs

[toxic bridge]

shu one question, https://krooster.com/u/Zee krooster again, my 4* phase is over, who should i build now?

also question, ashlock, only good for the artilery right?

[glass monolith]

Fire Whistle (from CN limited event) looks so much cool

[toxic bridge]

dont know who that is

oh btw bison any gud?

i dont think so

[glass monolith]

Fire Whistle is 5 star Ashlock and her S2 makes neat anti ground arts dot

85% of her ATK on M3 each second for 6 second on 5 tiles (one she shot and 4 next to it) and she like almost 1000 atk let me double check

Oh it is because she gain +12% atk when not blocking, around 900 without it

[scarlet mortar]

5* ashlock
so, ashlock

[glass monolith]

She is personal this piece of shit from IW

[modern plover]

the only thing thats more noticeable about fire whistle is that when she blocks she doesnt switch to melee mode like horn
which is nice if horn can does that

[glass monolith]

She switch to melee and her talent give 12% DEF instead ATK, but her S2 will still set tile on fire

[modern plover]

very cool

[glass monolith]

17 duration, 40 SP, damage is

oh and tile burning still lasts after skill ends
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcIIIbgUFXM

[modern plover]

ah yes, star craft 2

[glass monolith]

shield enemies are 15k hp and 35 res

huh, Lin event (I am not remembering that Chongus name, okay? ) has almost no Res on enemies

Meanwhile dog has 800 def

[sharp mango]

man that is some weird ass thumbnail right there
maybe I am not art enough idk 💀

[glass monolith]

it is gamer meme thumbnail

[scarlet mortar]

where'st've the vernal winds ain't blowing

[glass monolith]

WVWWNB event

[sharp mango]

oh man later #help enjoyer gonna use that?

[proud drift]

I hate ch9

I hate being able to undeploy rocks

[livid delta]

I'd promote base operators to e1 asap if you haven't already

[proud drift]

Somehow clicking on myrtle made me click on rock and I undeployed a rock

9-14 CM is so disgusting

[glass monolith]

my CM progress is up to 4-9

[tidal sedge]

Isn't that just hold 2 lanes and win

[glass monolith]

Hold 1 lane and win

[proud drift]

Ya I solved it more or less

Just

Hate gargoyles

And them suddenly deciding to fly over everything if you don’t take care of it

God bless fiammetta being able to oneshot thru stone form

[glass monolith]

"suddenly deciding" How the fuck you suddenly kill it

[proud drift]

I had monter placed on one place hoping I can spawnkill it when it gets blocked

Turns out

If gargoyle gets blocked and enters stone form

If the blocker isn’t facing it

It won’t hit it

[glass monolith]

oh yea it is not blocked suddenly, great game design

Consistently come up with new ways to fuck you over

[proud drift]

Either way out of sanity now, time to mald cc

[tidal sedge]

Every multi phase enemy does that

Invulnerability also makes something unblockable

[coral imp]

Just got silverash. Should i spend some originium prime to get guard chips to promote him? He would be my 3rd elite 2.

[lethal dragon]

I remember 9-12 cm was funny

[scarlet ledge]

speed?

[coral imp]

Nvm, wouldn't have the credits after leveling him

[scarlet ledge]

csnt remember

[tidal sedge]

9-12 is super speed ye

[meager gorge]

Hey I did the past 7 floors in SSS first try so I can get the medal if I first-time this stage but I've never done it before, can someone tell me the best place for irene and GG? GG placement is probs 4head as fuck but idk where to put Irene.

Advice for the boss would be nice too

[proud drift]

Get lucky

That’s basically how you beat floor 8 boss mechanic

Don’t draw when clearing waves if boss shits in your deck and you didn’t clean it out

Otherwise mobs will run through

[glass monolith]

Hardest part of this stage is not even boss itself. But the fact that screw you there is 37 enemies to kill before wave 1 ends

So you pretty much stuck with your starting hand for wave 1

[lethal dragon]

I just camp in this area

[meager gorge]

LESGOOO

[cursive wedge]

[gilded scarab]

Does lumen's status removal work on self-inflicted stun like for amiya, specter, eunectes, liskarm, etc?

[cursive wedge]

ye

it’s cc effect

but they need to lose hp before lumen can remove the status efffect

[charred gazelle]

is this a good general squad

anything i should roll for or level up asap

[silver mirage]

Need some help here

[proud drift]

Rarity aboose moment

[silver mirage]

Clearly doesn't work

[full finch]

move up so you can spawnkill more

[cursive wedge]

seems like skill issue

[silver mirage]

Read my nickname sir

[rough rampart]

gg is good to promote for her s3

[opal kiln]

Bro wtf

[solemn anvil]

wat?im too lazy to type it out

oh and surtr right below cheetos (or better blocker)

[slow mantle]

Got a question in IS station if anyone wants to help

[weak gazelle]

fireball dude stuck there (insta free target practice for my plat) so hillarious

[toxic bridge]

so i have promoted my 3rd op

i have jaye, cutter and now utage

who should i perhaps go for next? another dps?

[fluid sail]

what’s your roster

[toxic bridge]

i should start putting this https://krooster.com/u/Zee in my bio

i think its up to date

(levels and elites arent tho

[frigid kite]

Wow

[frigid kite]

Level your E2s to 30 (Jaye 40 for module) and, what's your account wise, only 4*?

[zenith orchid]

Hello gentlemen, I'm here to ask some help with clearing chernobog. I'm basically new so I'm still learning strats so sorry my ignorance

[frigid kite]

Mhm

Can you E1 Siege?

Or, level Kroos up to 50?

[zenith orchid]

Is kroos a 3 star?

[frigid kite]

Oh and, do you have Shaw perhaps?

[fallen yew]

No worries, you might want to e1 some key units first before taking on Chernobog. From what I saw, SilverAsh e1 s2 + Shaw sl4 can take care of top right lane. For the other two lanes, Gummy, Cuora, Perfumer, Shirayuki, Siege, Pinecone, Click, Gitano are great for now imo

[zenith orchid]

I made her lv 38 with a promotion

[zenith orchid]

I'm very sorry I'm genuinely very stupid with these things, what's e1/s2/sl4

[frigid kite]

Oh really nice

[zenith orchid]

I don't have shaw btw sorry

And I spent every xp ticket I had too 😄

[fallen yew]

• E0/E1/E2 refers to elite 0/1/2

[zenith orchid]

Ok thanks

[fallen yew]

Basically higher elite = more skills, higher skill level cap, more/better talent(s), more stats cap

S1/2/3 = skill 1/2/3
Sl1/2/3...7 = skill level 1/2...7
M1/M2/M3 = skill mastery (only available after e2 & sl7 & for 4*+ units)

[zenith orchid]

I can't promote him yet, I'm missing some parts for it

[fallen yew]

Anyway you might want to e1 a few units first

@zenith orchid Have you read /newtips in #bot-spam ?

[zenith orchid]

Alrighty I'll try

Not yet sorry

[fallen yew]

It's fine

[zenith orchid]

Oh wait

I DO HAVE SHAW

[glass monolith]

shaw is given for free anyway quite early because game give you HOLE tutorial of sorts

[toxic bridge]

Nah anything goes

I just loved those 4*

[frigid kite]

Nice

Still needing the strat?

[sly drift]

Bruh. Mech caster has incredibly low atk stats ain't it

[frigid kite]

Their niche is "wow, skill is active, i'm really useful now!"

That can be used for a lot more of operators anyways, lol

But Mech casters specifically use their drones when skill is active, that's the why

[turbid badge]

hey.. they have higher aspd than normal casters

high attack stat doesnt mean too much when u look at aoe casters

[sly drift]

Mathematically, how can they be good attacker even with their skill activated. 200-300 base atk in E2 lv 60 is waay too low

But they just good lol

[storm current]

Read their trait

[sly drift]

The "damage will increase up to 110%"?

[storm current]

Its extra hit

[sly drift]

How do I calculate it lol

[storm current]

So the first hit does 120%, 2nd does 135% and increase by 15% for every sequential hit

Up to 210%

[frigid kite]

And, aside from that, they usually add utility as Stun, slow, frozen, AoE global explosión damage, drones stuff

[molten swan]

Someone doesnt know maffs

[agile ember]

This is my team, but I think need better medics maybe

[turbid badge]

dps pretty good yeah, rockrock s1 vs s2 lul

[turbid badge]

for what?

lookd good, warf and perf and saria should heal most stuff

[scarlet mortar]

on average you probs need a more consistent arts dps source

[storm current]

For general use the only better medic you can get is NG/ptilo over perfumer

[scarlet mortar]

definitely don't need more medics lmao, mud and saria over-carry

[agile ember]

Yea. Imma go try getting eyja or someone similar soon

[storm current]

You may replace suzu for a sniper

[scarlet mortar]

also is that S2 💀

[storm current]

I mean

You can use suzu over amiya

[scarlet mortar]

real

[shut siren]

can someone help me beat ce-5 please

[full finch]

yeah what's causing problems

[shut siren]

i cant keep up with how fast theyre coming

or my team could just be bad

[full finch]

lotsa early pressure on that stage

lightsaber bois

remember to use the regen tiles

[shut siren]

yeah im using them

[full finch]

you could try leading 2 DPS units instead of vanguards

E1 surtr and E2 silverash on regen tiles should work

wait that's E1 silverash

should still work actually

[lethal dragon]

SA s2 can work

[shut siren]

i think i just did it

THERES A CE-6?

that can wait another 2 monthsd

[full finch]

CE-6 is good

best LMD farm

after base

[shut siren]

i only got 1 e2 i doubt i can touch it 💀

[full finch]

it's got defense crushers which is a pain

[molten swan]

Oh chalter two shots them

Skull

[shut siren]

oh my chalters e2

maybe i can actually do it

[molten swan]

She can cycle quick enough for most mobs

[shut siren]

no way i was actually so close to beating it

LOL I DID IT WTF

I struggled more on ce-5 than i did on ce-6

[storm current]

bring more maskmen lol

you should tnk with your sniper

not vanguard

since vanguard has no dmg

[shut siren]

thats what i did

chalter the real tank ong

[proud drift]

So if I beat tfn mandragora ez without kazi squad

Does that mean story mandra will be ez too?

[storm current]

2 lane defend

[proud drift]

Wait there’s two lanes

[soft crystal]

Story mandra easier

[full finch]

story mandra is so much easier because you can just throw roccs at her

local sand cat gets crushed by falling rocks

potentially related to the series of muggings of an old wendigo

[proud drift]

Ok I had the most scuffed run ever

But it still worked

Local cat really did get thrown stones at her

By a funny polish horse

Oh wait no

Gravel is rat

[surreal star]

What’s the exact number for gg explosion chance?

Since the 10% is only an approximation

[full finch]

something about 1.5% stacking chance

40 stacks maximum iirc?

[surreal star]

I’m looking for an average

I’ll probably just simulate it myself at this point

[full finch]

idk I can't maff

[cosmic dagger]

i havent taken stats in forever but ill try to calc the expected value in a bit

its a bit cringe to just say "ah but i ran this 1mil times in python so it must be true"

[cosmic dagger]

ran the ending sum in desmos, but anyway quite close to 10% @surreal star

[surreal star]

ty

[cosmic dagger]

ah rereading it i noticed first sum symbol should be from 1 to 41, oh well

[turbid badge]

[full finch]

calculus

🛐

[cosmic dagger]

the power of statistics

prayge

[proud drift]

What the fuck

Wait mandragora has reduced damage in phase 1 already

I always thought it’s only when hovering

[storm current]

this is what teacher told you when saying "maths will be important for you in the future"

[lethal dragon]

Wtf

[lethal dragon]

True

[cosmic dagger]

i think actually calculating expected value is much more convincing than the "expected value" that people tell me when they talk about average amount of pulls required for a 6*, which actually just comes from running a python loop a morbillion times

so i figured deriving it would be interesting

and it turned out to be a good refresher on expected value anyway

[surreal star]

🛐

Preach

[shell arch]

Could someone sell me on s2m3 gnosis? I can't find a reason to do it

[soft crystal]

Me neither

[shell arch]

[cosmic dagger]

cant, i tried coping it in is3 which is the best mode for it, and it still sucks a load of cocks

[shell arch]

Even dalaokermit can't sell me s2m3 gnosis

[soft crystal]

4 second freeze on how much sp

[shell arch]

[soft crystal]

32 sp?

[shell arch]

14 iirc

[soft crystal]

28 overcharge?

[shell arch]

Let me check

It was 14 overcharge last night

[cosmic dagger]

6

so 12 overcharge

[soft crystal]

Oh 12 overcharge

[shell arch]

[cosmic dagger]

even with cc relic and ptilo sp lockout makes it not perma cc

i hate it so much

dies from cringe

[soft crystal]

S3 is just way better

[shell arch]

So gnosis m6 might not be worth the resources at all

[cosmic dagger]

the superior strategy is to not wait for overcharge and auto attack into s2 instead, this is actually perma cc

[proud drift]

S1… maybe?

[cosmic dagger]

just very hard on the hands

[shell arch]

S1 is

Eh

[proud drift]

Better than S2

XD

[shell arch]

S1 only double attack

[soft crystal]

I mean s1 gnosis is for meme dps gnosis with pasta relics

[shell arch]

Which is useless when you have high aspd relic/fullstack sniper gnosis

[proud drift]

Only use for S2 I found is when there was a load of mobs and S3 wouldn’t do it in time and I needed insta-freeze

Which was exactly one stage and even then cause I was dumb

[shell arch]

Oh now you mention it

Is there any actual stage where gnosis s2m3 benefits more than s3m3?

Since s2 is aoe and s3 is just mt

[proud drift]

S2M0 and M3 do the same thing so idk

S2 is only useful over S3 if you have like, idk, 10 mobs running at the same time and S3 won’t freeze them all in time

[cosmic dagger]

one less sp ends up pretty significant

[proud drift]

Speed 3-4 type shit maybe

Ah well

I usually uh

[cosmic dagger]

unironically IS only

[proud drift]

Gnosis S2 into Fia S2

[cosmic dagger]

and with the precondition of cc relic too

[proud drift]

Kinda goes hard

[shell arch]

Alright, it's probably not worth pushing guardvial s2m3 down for gnosis s2m3 then

Thanks peeps

[proud drift]

Ya idk why even consider s2m3 gnosis

Then again

I did S1M3 fia

[scarlet mortar]

S2 use case: aoe spinach skill

[proud drift]

Doesn’t S2 have no damage

[scarlet mortar]

nonzero

ngl i used it like once in WR-EX-6 or sth and immediately after found that S3 worked anw

[shell arch]

[tidal sedge]

S2 is nice for grounding Dublinn hoverboards

[mental comet]

Any tips on how to beat WD-EX-8 using my Roster? Who should I borrow as a Support?
https://krooster.com/u/Inugami69

[tidal sedge]

Idk about s2m3 for that though

[proud drift]

Just S1 then

[tidal sedge]

Your firepower looks fine.

[proud drift]

Or S3

[tidal sedge]

Does s1 ground the frequent trios like in H9-4?

[turbid badge]

it removes 1 sp from 7 to 6 and extra second of cold

idk it looks nice

if u do use s2

that is

[scarlet mortar]

actually wait, there's exactly one good use for gnosis S2

[turbid badge]

[proud drift]

Mayhaps not

But S3 will

[tidal sedge]

S3 cd I think is too long

[scarlet mortar]

that's to cancel colossus gaming's stun attack if you can't nuke it

stiill don't need M3 for that though

[turbid badge]

i mean s2 is every cold every 6 seconds and than for freeze its just a little more
his s3 costs 40 seconds

[proud drift]

How much def does stone cat have?

In CM

[tidal sedge]

What parts are you struggling with exactly? Ufo? Strikers? Emperor Blade? Post EB death strikers?

[shell arch]

What stone cat

[proud drift]

Mandragora

[shell arch]

More than 1

[proud drift]

I was thinking if ntr is a good borrow to kill her asap

But idk how high her def is

[desert prairie]

If you play pillar she is a decent option

But need to bait basilisk laser

[proud drift]

She doesn’t laser if u pillar

[desert prairie]

Phase 1

[mental comet]

the Emperor 🌬️ and the post EB strikers.

[proud drift]

Does she laser in phase 2 even after pillar?

[tidal sedge]

Like 624 def if this 9-19 cm

[proud drift]

Ya

Guess ntr will slap her cheeks

[desert prairie]

She flies again ina bit
But usually she dies after two pillars anyways

[proud drift]

Oh wait nobody’s sharing ntr s2 nowadays

[tidal sedge]

It might be helpful to know that the smoke affects enemies after Emperor Blade dies

[proud drift]

Do I cope with S3

[desert prairie]

No

Bad idea

[tidal sedge]

So strikers will have a 9 second atk interval which makes them easy to stall

[turbid badge]

man is all hp

[tidal sedge]

So you could blow your firepower on EB, then stall with defense perhaps until your firepower is ready to deal with the strikers after

[proud drift]

Is it?

I’ll check practice to see what would go wrong with a pot6 s3m3 ntr

[tidal sedge]

If you're dropping a pillar on Mandra, why want true damage

Except for phase 1

[desert prairie]

Phase 1 is still worth

[turbid badge]

[proud drift]

Bruh she lasers from so far

But I have an idea

[soft crystal]

Borrow chen s3m3

Regular chen s3m3 have someone to bait the farts

Warfd she will oneshot eb

I think irene will die if you use her instead of chen

[desert prairie]

Irene indeed will die

Defective op

[soft crystal]

Chen>Irene

[mental comet]

when should I use Ch'en?

[soft crystal]

When you feel like you wanna kill eb

Warf+Chen will oneshot eb

[desert prairie]

Whenever
Hyperbuff chen and watch her melt eb

[soft crystal]

Well 1 phase

[desert prairie]

Just do the same on second phase
Good luck surviving eb for 70 seconds though

You can also kill eb first phase normally

And chen burst the second

[mental comet]

ok ill try that

[soft crystal]

If you use chen the farts will all go on one operator

[proud drift]

Bruh ntr s3 bad I guess

[soft crystal]

Be sure to use bait for that

[proud drift]

Who else could nuke mandra after pillar

[soft crystal]

Use s2 instead

Her def aint that high

[proud drift]

I can’t use S2

I already said so

[mental comet]

bait? like A Gravel?

[proud drift]

Nobody’s sharing S2 cause of cc

[soft crystal]

Anyone will do

Yeah lol

[desert prairie]

I like silverass
Can place on left side and hit middle, while mandra gets raped

[tidal sedge]

Amiya s3 + a pillar or two should kill her

[proud drift]

Actually what I will try is giving ntr ptilopsis

Maybe then she’ll nuke her p1 and not die

[desert prairie]

Oh

Still on p1

[proud drift]

Nah I got to p2

But it was too copium

Cuz P1 died too deep in

[desert prairie]

If late gamer, check shoyuu guide for 7 second mandra kill

Hyper exu + schwarz

[storm current]

pozy should be able to 1 cycle mandra

just do the pozy suzu strat

[desert prairie]

With bait maybe

Oh suzu works too

[storm current]

pozy suzu is the new ifrit suzu

[desert prairie]

Since when did iffy suzu a thing

Saria iffy still makes sense

But usually main dps isnt iffy but someone else

Since iffy is a debuffer

[storm current]

suzu basically increase the length of the path

pozy typewriter usually have only 1 tile to nuke

suzu make that 1 tile into 5 practically

[proud drift]

She should die soon right

She doesn’t get more atk in p2 right?

Ptilo s2 keeps ntr alive through laser

[shell arch]

Use the pillars

[proud drift]

I will

[shell arch]

To disable hovering + damage reduction

[latent monolith]

If you knock all 4 pillars on her she takes 48k/50k

[proud drift]

Uhh I can only knock three I think

[latent monolith]

There's one behind monst3r

Two on the top

One on the lower left

[proud drift]

Yes but

She drops pillars too

[shell arch]

Bait the pillars

[proud drift]

Unless her cooldown resets after she takes a bonk

[latent monolith]

Only if there's an op there

[shell arch]

By deploying op

[latent monolith]

If there's no op where the pillar falls mandra doesn't knock it over

[proud drift]

Ah wait I can wait for her to drop pillar on myrtle

[shell arch]

Deploy op near pillar > she takes down the said pillar > pillar drops coincidentally with your op

[turbid badge]

just place

[shell arch]

[latent monolith]

Btw there are no tiles there to bait pillar onto mandra

You have to knock it over yourself

[shell arch]

Retreat your myrtle

So pillar can be used against gargoyles

[latent monolith]

Ig you're fine with thorns regardless

[desert prairie]

I didnt think your team would be this buffed

Oh well, gg makes quick work of mandra anyways

Even if you messed up, gg should be able to kill

[proud drift]

SHE DIED

[proud drift]

I did not use pillars for gargoyles once

Fiammetta oneshots them

Pozemka too

I even forgot to change gnosis to s3

[shell arch]

[proud drift]

Tsundere stone cat no more

[soft crystal]

Im still in pain not having nrk

120 pulls

Only got an ifrit dupe

[proud drift]

Only one more story boss to do and it’s manfred

After that uhh

H stages

[pearl musk]

What ops should I bring for cc 10

[clever kernel]

true dmg

and some that can tank 3000 true dmg

[pearl musk]

Huh

[clever kernel]

things have 90% dmg res

true dmg ignores that

[vernal lion]

cc10 = chap 10

[gloomy zealot]

what does the airstrike target?

[opal kiln]

highest block count

[gloomy zealot]

ahhh

thats why the airstrike made a last second decision to kill my gavialter

sadge that i still dont have hoshiguma

[sudden flame]

Does Heavy Rain's camouflage works to avoid the mortor ? Is it worth trying ?

[kind shell]

I might be wrong but mortar does hit invis unit

[fallen yew]

Camo'd units won't get targeted by cannon if that's what you're trying to do

[kind shell]

^

[fallen yew]

= placed on vents

[kind shell]

Because he said avoid so there is 2 possibility

Either targeted or hit

[sudden flame]

But what if like u use the skill at the right time to avoid the damage

[fallen yew]

Camo units still take splash damage

[sudden flame]

Oh ya true

[fallen yew]

If you trigger camo before the bar fills, the cannon will simply switch to the last deployed highest block unit

[sudden flame]

Yah I get it now. Thanks for clarifying it

[silver mirage]

Just in case where do I block here it's stage 1-6

[kind shell]

There is already a recomendation placement for the roadblock itself

You just need to use vanguard so the dog enemy not get passed

[silver mirage]

It's cm so only 1 block

Forgot to mention

[latent monolith]

Place it left of the blue box

Misleading tips smh

[kind shell]

Put beside blue box

So all enemy get deroute to right

[silver mirage]

OK cleared

I gonna need to do alot of this

Got too many uncleared stages

[placid birch]

Only 9 chapters to go

[silver mirage]

I haven't even done chapter 6

[kind shell]

If you want to progressing stuff to do, then now is good time because cc is basically dead weeks

[nocturne bridge]

how to beat anni 3 with this team?

[storm current]

Uh

Borrow thorns i guess

Actually no

Borrow ifrit

Your team doesnt have enough art to deal with the defense crusher at later waves

[nocturne bridge]

ohh

what skill on ifrit?

[storm current]

S2

[nocturne bridge]

and what are the placements

[storm current]

do you have a shaw somehow

or specifically e1 sl7 shaw

and do you have perfumer

[nocturne bridge]

i do have ptilopsis

[storm current]

raised?

[placid birch]

Anni 3 ifrit placement is generally on the very top, on the right, facing down

[nocturne bridge]

only lvl 50 e0

[storm current]

may be too underleveled then

[nocturne bridge]

oh i dont have shaw at sl7

[storm current]

its only for cheese but seem like you cant do that

[nocturne bridge]

ifrit here?

[storm current]

yes

face down

https://youtu.be/0Xk4UYFcCVg

you would use a set up similar to this

but

https://youtu.be/m-pKohpNMOo

you can try this one too

[nocturne bridge]

alr

ah i dont have any friends who have ifrit s2m3..

time to try find one

[placid birch]

Notalec#6194 add me

[nocturne bridge]

Oh okay

sended

[sonic willow]

No e2

Oh wait cuora wtf

[burnt pine]

e2 sa and borrow thorns 2 aa 2 medics 1 flag shaw can deal with anni 3 omega smoothly

[burnt pine]

this one is very very hard to replicate

[storm current]

Idk

I never try it myself

[molten swan]

How is it “hard”

[storm current]

It involve stalling so

[civic nest]

when a new player is asked to stall

[sonic willow]

Thorns anni3 easier

[burnt pine]

there is a big chance that sa will die from the drone lazers at the first crushers wave then the last crusher needs mousse most likely because sa won't have his skill ready

[astral vapor]

Can anyone help with playwright

[frigid frigate]

How to clear 6-5 its a stage where hoshiguma shine but i didnt build her i have mudrock

[astral vapor]

I think i see the pozy tile

And the surtr one

What about the peons though

[frigid frigate]

Ok...if there is no hoshi maybe build her or build bubble

[civic nest]

don’t build them just for 1 stage

[frigid frigate]

Maybe thats a bad idea

[frigid frigate]

Oh

[civic nest]

the stage can be cleared without both easily

[molten swan]

How did you “accidentally” trigger playwright

[scarlet ledge]

@astral vapor how many hp u have

[astral vapor]

34

[scarlet ledge]

u can leak so u cna setup spawncamp

ok good

[molten swan]

You know you needed like two relics to actually make the fight possible right

[astral vapor]

Those being?

[scarlet ledge]

use ntrk if u havent killed playwright

when he moved

[astral vapor]

Playwright is male?

[scarlet ledge]

anyway among hs

[molten swan]

The uh

Chains

And another one

[astral vapor]

Wait its not possible without?

Shitttr

I just fucking took the playwright unlock

Didnt know it was the unlock stage

Just took the dangerous battle randomly

So im fucked?

[scarlet ledge]

[astral vapor]

How many trash mobs spawn?

[scarlet ledge]

[astral vapor]

Time to fuck around and find out

Overestimated this fucker

[wind notch]

Is true damage buffed by fragile effects?

[opal kiln]

yes

[wind notch]

Ok ty

[molten swan]

Uhhh how’s it going

Is he dead

[frigid frigate]

@civic nest how to position my unit on the 6-5 map i already use the guide in utube but it didnt work

Its like i have an error in it

My team

[molten swan]

mudrock

[astral vapor]

Dead enough

[molten swan]

Splendid

[toxic bridge]

kinda wanna e2 a defender now

but everyone says dps first

which makes sense

[astral vapor]

Who needs defenders

When everything is kil

[toxic bridge]

me

because if there's something i like more than 4* is defenders

[astral vapor]

You dont need to tank if everything is dead

[toxic bridge]

dunno why i said 6*

hmmm fair enough

but who should it be next then

[halcyon pelican]

Which defender?

[toxic bridge]

i already got mah babe utage and my brotha jaye and cutter too

[toxic bridge]

would be between dur-nar or lisk

[scarlet ledge]

grats

[halcyon pelican]

Lisk is mainly an sp battery(unless u need to tank arts then her e2 talent can be very handy)
Idk bout durnar

[toxic bridge]

dur nar is preddy

and her S2 is just a straight up upgrade from S1

and a pretty cool skill unless faced vs very high Res enemies

[astral vapor]

4 star defenders are usually better than 5 stars

[toxic bridge]

i got quite a few defenders that are 5* and even 6* hoshi

[astral vapor]

Aside from damage ones and nearl and lisk

[halcyon pelican]

Czerny and the IS defender crying

[astral vapor]

Actually im starting to realize how stupid i sound

I should shut up

[scarlet ledge]

only 4★ def i use on is2 is just cuora and durnar

[toxic bridge]

i croissant any gud?

[scarlet ledge]

good

[halcyon pelican]

Gummy:

[scarlet ledge]

s1

[scarlet ledge]

i just grab spot

irs enougj

plus i have answl anyway

[toxic bridge]

i actually have gummy she's pretty kewl

[halcyon pelican]

At least gummy got that chance to deal stun and big dmg

[astral vapor]

Gummy and spot are totally different

Gummy has consistent healing that makes your ops not unalive thenselves on poison gas

[scarlet ledge]

poison gas is not probelm anyway if u have ansel

[burnt pine]

spot can gibe dodge u know don't ignore him

[astral vapor]

Why bring either then if you have ansel

[scarlet ledge]

i rarely grab gummy on 4★ is2 run

[astral vapor]

Ansel is king in is2

[scarlet ledge]

dodge good

[astral vapor]

0 hope medic

[scarlet ledge]

[burnt pine]

pure medics are mostly not used
i use susuro mostly in is the rest just pray that they survive

[scarlet ledge]

pure stream and perf

ur good

unless ur purestream is not module

use sus

[halcyon pelican]

Actually
All 4 star medics are pretty decent are keeping ur team alive
But 5 stars... Warfarin and ptilopsis..
6 stars... Ka-, i mean nightingale

[silver mirage]

Purestream e2 got used?

[scarlet ledge]

purestream with module have insane heal kek

[tribal ore]

can u use 2 guard skadi module at the same time

[shell arch]

No

[scarlet ledge]

lul

[jovial nest]

Does Gnosis' frozen debuff stack with Suzu's fragile?

or no?

[tribal ore]

which skadi module should i get

[scarlet ledge]

if u using s2

the frd one

[shell arch]

Freeze stack with fragile
Enemy that's gotten frozen on gnosis range gets fragile
Fragile doesn't stack. Only the highest apply

[tribal ore]

?

[scarlet ledge]

@shell arch its y right?

the frd one

i forgot

[astral vapor]

Lumen kal and ng are all good

[scarlet ledge]

[jovial nest]

thats what i meant about the Fragile

[novel holly]

Is it possible to hospital Jaye through today's max risk?

[astral vapor]

Everyone but shining

[shell arch]

Increase atk to 115% when attacking blocked enemy one

[jovial nest]

guess I only pick one

[tribal ore]

whats frd

[shell arch]

I'm not aethervoid/module nerd. I only remember what they do, not their name

[shell arch]

Fast redeploy

[scarlet ledge]

[tribal ore]

oh

[shell arch]

Skadi with frd mod is like 30s frd iirc

Not as fast as an actual frd but it helps a lot

[scarlet ledge]

the no ending to this dream module

for s2

[tribal ore]

what does 2nd module works with

[halcyon pelican]

Why does kalstit have 5 range of tiles

[shell arch]

Idk which is 2nd module

But

[novel holly]

Just because

[halcyon pelican]

Yes

[tribal ore]

when defeated revives but -hp and +spd

[shell arch]

Increase atk to 115% > s2m3
Revive upon being defeated > s3m3

[novel holly]

I assume HG wanted more flexibility with mon3tr placements, but then again, it's just the way it is

[tribal ore]

hmmm

which skadi module gives more value

[halcyon pelican]

Horn and skadi are the only ops to have a '2nd life' right? (exclude all dollkeepers)

[shell arch]

Lamebringer

With mod

[toxic bridge]

aight https://krooster.com/u/Zee whomst to e2 next, may? meteor? lapland? whomst

[halcyon pelican]

Wait whos that

I genuinely dont know

[shell arch]

Lamebringer with F

[halcyon pelican]

Huh

Wait idk who that is, shit

[shell arch]

Flamebringer goddammit

[novel holly]

Flamebringer

[halcyon pelican]

IS HE AN OP

How come i have not heard

Of him

[novel holly]

He's a freebie from long ago

[halcyon pelican]

/her

[shell arch]

He's one of the first welfare, yep

Skadi archetype

[halcyon pelican]

oh

Ill assume hes never used right(cuz i have not heard that name before)

[novel holly]

Lamebringer

[halcyon pelican]

Ah i get it

Lamebringer

[novel holly]

Do you think someone good is lame

[shell arch]

He's quite underwhelming

[novel holly]

Lame, you might say

[shell arch]

Permanent skill and talent is good for long stage

But when they're activated and maxstack talent, the stage should end already

[silver mirage]

As always game descriptions ls very helpful

[novel holly]

Pompeii

[halcyon pelican]

Ya now u know theres lava crack that deal dmg surrounding 8 tiles

[silver mirage]

Where is the lava??

[halcyon pelican]

Good point

[scarlet mortar]

you see the glowing thingies, those spew lava

[halcyon pelican]

But there is mini volcanos that appear

So by that logic

Those should be the lava cracks

[silver mirage]

How pain is the lava?

[halcyon pelican]

Ill be honest that contract is a joke

U can just superbuff pompeii and leak him

[silver mirage]

I can't leak tho

[halcyon pelican]

Unless ur max risk

[scarlet mortar]

deals true damage, without hp down or lava tile tags it's pretty manageable

hp down 2 might be frisky

[scarlet mortar]

any 2 lava tags makes it pretty painful

[silver mirage]

Like the cannon

[scarlet mortar]

eh it's not like 3k damage

unless you pick 3 lava tile tags

[silver mirage]

So take the top tag?

[shell arch]

What top tag

[scarlet mortar]

this vid's from a couple seasons ago but it's basically the same idea here ig
https://youtu.be/8GLStFiE5Fg

[shell arch]

[halcyon pelican]

Oh wait u need rank 2

To unlock next

Welp should have done it earlier

[silver mirage]

So I need to take both to unlock rank 2?

[scarlet mortar]

yh

it's not that bad

[silver mirage]

That means I can't leak

[scarlet mortar]

ergates are pretty squishy and r1 pompeii is E1 jaye fodder

[silver mirage]

No e1 jaye

[scarlet mortar]

L

[halcyon pelican]

Then just e1 him

[silver mirage]

Can I sutr it?

[halcyon pelican]

Absolutely

[silver mirage]

OK I do that first

Don't want to lose money just to clear 1 cc

[scarlet mortar]

lmao wait you have mountain, this is even easier

[silver mirage]

How does mountain change things?

[astral vapor]

Do NOT surtr pompeii

[scarlet mortar]

he solos everything on the left including pompeii

[astral vapor]

That shitter has ridiculously high res

[halcyon pelican]

Surtr ignore some res tho

[astral vapor]

Some

She does barely any damage to pompeii

[scarlet mortar]

don't try that at high risk though

[astral vapor]

Ignore surtr

Try chalter or pozyomka

Or exu buff army

[silver mirage]

Ifrit +sutr it is

[astral vapor]

I REPEAT DO NOT TRY TO SURTR IT

[scarlet mortar]

mountain lmao

add a medic or sth if he's dying

[astral vapor]

Not enough dps on high risk

[scarlet mortar]

[astral vapor]

Mountain wont die unless hes directly fighting pompeii

(Or if hes underbuilt)

[scarlet mortar]

mountain, cheetos, poz and idk perfumer should be ehough for r2

[novel holly]

Can hospital Jaye survive max risk?

[silver mirage]

No chalter I can try pozy+cone

[novel holly]

When Pompeii enrages shit hits the fan

[scarlet mortar]

4op

[silver mirage]

I'm not on high risk tho

Does he still have insane res?

[novel holly]

As long as you don't pick the Res risk you'll be fine

[silver mirage]

Idk about u but this is the only things I can take

[scarlet mortar]

oh yh don't duel it near your ranged ops

below half hp it starts doing the kablooey

(read: it dusk S1's your ops)

[silver mirage]

Which blue box he go for?

[scarlet mortar]

left

[sturdy warren]

after contigency level 1 that map is ez

[scarlet mortar]

from left to right, it goes up the first lane, down the third, and exits just above the blue box on the second lane

[sturdy warren]

just dont select the life point risk

[scarlet mortar]

pompeii officially recruited into rhodes, codename

[silver mirage]

I can't don't choose tho

I need 2 level to rank up

[molten swan]

Wait hang on

Go to the training thingy

On the left side of the main maps

They have eaiser risks there for you to unlock the tiers first

[silver mirage]

It affects the daily one too?

[molten swan]

Yeh

[silver mirage]

2x2?

Easiest level 4?

[molten swan]

Ye sure go for the 2 r2s

-30% isnt too bad

[glass monolith]

Atk down is pretty free, without shit like wrath speed DP generation down

[toxic bridge]

i return with more questions

i gotta start thinking by myself ngl

anyways, i wanna E2 dur-nar is she worth it?

or should i just go for may/kroos 5*

[molten swan]

No e2 better ones

[glass monolith]

Arts defender are not used much

[molten swan]

Or are you doing nicheknights

[toxic bridge]

im doing loveknights

bassicly the ones i like

right now the only ones i have E2 are jaye and utage (cutter too but i regret her)

[civic crown]

ethan solos wraith lane

[sudden coral]

hey guys

i have a question

[pearl musk]

?

[sudden coral]

does chen holung need mastery 3 on skill 3

or can mastery 1 work

[pearl musk]

Try for 3

To maximize the BALANCE

[sudden coral]

i see

[pearl musk]

All the chalter supports I see are s3m3

[sudden coral]

balance?

[pearl musk]

It's sarcastic

Chalter's damage is anything but balanced

[molten swan]

chalter sucks

ling good

(sarcasm)

[pearl musk]

You still trying to Ling only your way though content?

[sudden coral]

@molten swan yep ling is good

@pearl muskya

[pearl musk]

Hmm

[sudden coral]

what skill needs mastery on eyja?

@pearl musk

[pearl musk]

S3

S2 if you are going for afk strat

[sudden coral]

s2?

[silver mirage]

@molten swan

Did I get the wrong risks?

💀

[pearl musk]

Err

No

You place mountain first

This map could be cleared with 3 ops

[silver mirage]

On courier slot?

[pearl musk]

Yes

One aoe medic. One sniper. One mountain

[silver mirage]

Then how I get dp?

[pearl musk]

No need

Mountain is cheap

[sudden coral]

is jaye a good investment

i dunno

[molten swan]

no?

[sudden coral]

im not sure if theyll powercreep ling

[pearl musk]

Me neither, but I heard his good

[molten swan]

tf

[pearl musk]

Show me vanguard and sniper you have

Wait no need

Use mountain

Ptopsis

[sudden coral]

https://krooster.com/u/aknoob

oh that wasnt for me

lol

[pearl musk]

And archerto? Is that the one

[silver mirage]

Not pozy?

Archetto deals like 0 dmg against anything not slimes or doges

[pearl musk]

Then use poz

And bring myrtle if you have

[silver mirage]

What about the right slot?

[pearl musk]

Leak the boss

[silver mirage]

Don't I need to defend there???

[pearl musk]

Wait

Mountain is enough for left side

Sniper on right

Aoe medic to cover both

[sudden coral]

guys

[pearl musk]

Wait lemme ss my run

[sudden coral]

can anyone rank my roster

https://krooster.com/u/aknoob

[ruby forge]

[sudden coral]

@ruby forge2? meaning

[ruby forge]

I don't know. I don't know your expectations here in the question.

[pearl musk]

Here

[ruby forge]

You have a few good e2 6s but not a lot of ops.

[pearl musk]

Step one

Step 2

[sudden coral]

@ruby forge i see what ops am i missing?

[silver mirage]

Does pozy need m3 for this to work?

Mine only level 7

Mountain only m2

[pearl musk]

Kinda no

[sudden coral]

@pearl muskcan you help me

[pearl musk]

She has a typewriter to help

[pearl musk]

??

[sudden coral]

https://krooster.com/u/aknoob

[pearl musk]

Someone used kroos in place of poz and still got it

[pearl musk]

Fartooth

[sudden coral]

why her

[pearl musk]

She is good

[sudden coral]

how bout chen

[pearl musk]

Chen the sword master or Chen the spreadshooter

[pearl musk]

Tell me what you have difficulty in

Killing bosses?

Or smthing

[sudden coral]

i dont have a problem ... yet

i just want the overpowered ops

[pearl musk]

Err

[sudden coral]

just in case ling gets power creep

[pearl musk]

Euten the duelist tank or whatever her name is s3 is pretty good

[pearl musk]

You could pull on the mlynar banner and get a top3 dps

[sudden coral]

is the banner up?

who is that?

[pearl musk]

No

I'll tell you something

There is a cn sever

Server

Hg releases content there

And the global server gets it in 6 months

So we can predict what we can have in future

[sudden coral]

[pearl musk]

He

He is a liberator guard

High dps

[sudden coral]

[silver mirage]

[pearl musk]

I gave up on it during cc9

[silver mirage]

I don't know whether to lvl up pozy mod

[pearl musk]

Do it
