[vernal lion]

lol

[sudden locust]

Is Dur-nar good?

[turbid badge]

Yeah shes not bad, but theres also another free arts defender you get playing Is2 thats “better” than her, same Archetype

[sudden locust]

who

[turbid badge]

not bad as in , dps is pretty decent* and her skills are pretty straight forward arts damage to all blocked enemies

[turbid badge]

Shalem

[sudden locust]

do i also get her from the credit store

[turbid badge]

Yeah sure it doesnt do much she’ll stay in rotation until you buy her eventually

[sudden locust]

alr thx

[proud drift]

huh wait

shalem is a she?

[rough rampart]

nah the person is talking abt durnar

[main solstice]

[clever kernel]

Peak strat.

[tidal sedge]

Help with TC-7 challenge

[frigid kite]

Team?

[molten swan]

Do it like usual

Its not too bad

Three choke points

[proud drift]

What IS the usual

[cyan gorge]

The usual is just use Fia and turn off brain

[proud drift]

[warped palm]

Can I please get help, I really want to beat it

Lucian

Where to place Ifrit, I try Amiya S3 top left? For half hp...

[pearl musk]

Hmm

[proper canopy]

Looking mighty fine for me

[warped palm]

I can only get half hp of Lucian top left strat

[pearl musk]

This is very easy to win actually

[warped palm]

Then grim reaper murders my team

[proper canopy]

How many hp?

[pearl musk]

The irritating ones will be the sanity dmg dudes

[warped palm]

11 hp

I place gavial first, then place saria

[proper canopy]

Can we use ifritz s3 on those sanity

[warped palm]

Damn my S2 is M3 so id want to keep em

[pearl musk]

Have ifrit on autoskill and kill dancers. Place her so she can also dmg Lucian when he spawns

[warped palm]

Where would you rec placin ifrit

[pearl musk]

Gavialater to lane hold

Amiya and pozy kill boss

[warped palm]

Mmhm

[pearl musk]

Do you want ifrit to kill dancers or help kill other mobs

[warped palm]

Mob prob

Facing first top left door?

I meant mid two door left one

[lethal dragon]

@proud drift just tried it and yeah their range is long enough that they will target lee

[pearl musk]

The upside down t shape range tile

[tidal sedge]

@warped palm invite kyostinV to this server and ask him

[pearl musk]

On the left most

Aim up

[pearl musk]

Lol

[warped palm]

Aim up?? Does Lucian stay there in that spot

[pearl musk]

No

[warped palm]

Think he just pass it

Guess u want me to use blocker for tanks

[pearl musk]

Ifrit to kill the tanky enemy

Yes saria

[warped palm]

Werd

Okay

Gonna give a shot

Thanks for your input

[pearl musk]

When Lucian passes by saria s3

[warped palm]

Oo

[pearl musk]

R shaped ranged tiles put pozy and amiya

[warped palm]

What is R shaped

[pearl musk]

When Lucian stops there, pozy s3 with typewriter

Top left

[warped palm]

Right nvm i got u

R shaped

[pearl musk]

Debuff with shamare

[warped palm]

Thanks doktah, let me try this

[pearl musk]

Either he dies before pozy dies or he survives with some hp ig

[tidal sedge]

Which one should i prioritise getting to E2?

[pearl musk]

Who are your e2 ops

[storm current]

pozy

then saria

you can ignore the remaining 3

[dapper meadow]

Poz and Saria.

[storm current]

doesnt matter who are the e2 ops

[tidal sedge]

Saria is good? But i already have blemishine as my guardian tank.

[storm current]

saria is good

but for different reason

she provide better healing and slow/art amplification on s3

strong for SSS

[tidal sedge]

Art amplification? She reduce enemy art resistance?

[latent monolith]

Blemi is more of a 3 block healing guard, saria is more of a healing defender with arts buff on S3

[tidal sedge]

Ok, pozy and saria is it then. Thanks

[warped palm]

@pearl musk I did it! That ifirit placement + saria S3!! Finally beat IS2

[pearl musk]

Nc1

[dapper meadow]

Saria is better. Only times i bring Blem over Saria these days is when i want to use Mudrock S2 for some spin2win.

[lethal dragon]

Skadi S1 gaming

What's cm condition

[storm current]

extra hp

[tidal sedge]

That's s3

[vernal lion]

Skadi, not Gladiia

lmao

[lethal dragon]

Smh smh en can't read

[lethal dragon]

Oo

[tidal sedge]

Oooh she is hidden inside Gladiia vortex

[fresh copper]

Who dis owo

This blue woman

[vernal lion]

Astesia

oh btw, it's Astgenne's sister

[fresh copper]

Astgenne is real?

[vernal lion]

yes

just, wait for Dorothy banner tho

[waxen swan]

Dorothy banner right now

[glass monolith]

Stop giving me hopes for finally owning chain caster who i want to play

[loud raptor]

I've finally beaten M8-6 secret ending

💀

Needed to use like the most meta ops and strats but I barely managed to squeeze it through

Thorn + Surtr + Saria barely managed to blow up the top lane for the last wave

Now to do 2 more secret endings

[latent monolith]

I managed to scrape by with thorns and horn for dpsing top lane with some help from perfumer

The end was at like 100 hp, very tight

[loud raptor]

I had more room since I had very built up Surtr and Saria and borrowed Thorn

[glass monolith]

Holy crap i even have chips prefarmed for Astgenne (aka i side droped 20 while farming sniper chips because i have no casters to level )

[loud raptor]

SurtrS3+SariaS3+ThornS3+ShiningS3 would hold up top lane, while Perfumer+Angelina+Ash+GavAlter would hold the bottom lane

[lethal dragon]

Ok wtf

[tidal sedge]

Nice, do it again with 4-star operator .

[lethal dragon]

So now ah squad even cleared h9-6

[vernal lion]

aren't they both og and alt Specter ?

[supple mountain]

sanest abyssalknights player

[supple mountain]

yeah

[lethal dragon]

Yeah CN

[supple mountain]

cause il siracusano update

[loud raptor]

Aren't they allowing both OG and Alter in same squad?

[lethal dragon]

Yep in CN

[tidal sedge]

Happiness to everyone

[supple mountain]

yes

[vernal lion]

also read the rule first, you don't want to get warning from this

[tidal sedge]

When chapter 11 coming to global?

[tidal sedge]

My bad

[supple mountain]

never

[tidal sedge]

Sweet jesus

[supple mountain]

but probably a while until chp 11

[glass monolith]

Chances that chapter 11 before dorotpy are small, but never 0

[vernal lion]

ah yes, my fav test stage

[tidal sedge]

how hard is the to be continued event

[vernal lion]

it's pretty much a gimmick event

like the other old one

[civic crown]

astgenne never

[glass monolith]

Not Vigilo level of bullshit

[harsh gale]

Easy peasy

[proven tulip]

Tips on dealing with Ergates because I can't deal enough damage on TC-5?
Tried to push them off right in front of blue box, doesn't work 😞

[lethal dragon]

Did you try Mr lee s3

[fresh copper]

Lee cheese

[lethal dragon]

You can put anything anywhere

Because Lee has higher taunt

[fresh copper]

Lee bros just keep on winning every single event to prove nay sayers wrong

[latent monolith]

Just have lee somewhere, a decent chunk of aoe damage, maybe someone behind lee to block just in case (since there are those agents)

Horn lee medic +1 works for CM

[vernal lion]

very close there

Perf is crack

wtf splitbox???

Ros can hit it lol

[glass monolith]

most moment i had on that map was having 100% hp front most guard, buy fucking lost second one

[floral sundial]

mvp of this stage is perfumer since she can heal the shieldguards

[proven tulip]

May I borrow yours?
Waiting from #friend-id might take a bit too long 😁

[lethal dragon]

Aye

[main halo]

I thought you beat the stage perfectly already?

[vernal lion]

yes, 2 years ago tho

[lethal dragon]

Give id

[merry horizon]

Any tips for tc 6

I can't beat them motor boat dudes

[floral sundial]

put a dps unit right in front of your blocker/defender

[vernal lion]

hmm

level issue

also I hate that Perf mod is 4 heal targets but not extra range

[supple mountain]

what enemies spawn on this stage?

[signal granite]

use art dps as boat res is D

[vernal lion]

UFO and taunt shield dudes

[supple mountain]

what are the taunt shield dudes

[signal granite]

shieldguard

[supple mountain]

oh those

[shell arch]

Oh god
You're fucked

[vernal lion]

after that, Lancer dude, Demolitionist, and 4 block dude

Ursus Desire = f*cked up stage

much much harder than Sarkaz

[shell arch]

His anti airs are

[floral sundial]

i hope you have multiple anti air dps units

[shell arch]

Thorns

Gg (unreliable against stationary enemies)

And *5 temp aa sniper

It'll be tough to deal with the drones

Oh amiya s3 too i guess

[supple mountain]

i'm fucked aren't i

[floral sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/jeff-goldblum-crazy-son-of-a-bitch-you-did-it-jurrasic-park-gif-19484615

[shell arch]

Wtf

Dalao

[signal granite]

wow, you survive with 1 hp

[shell arch]

That mf lived

Very dalao

[supple mountain]

i probably should've bought the life points

[shell arch]

Eh you're fine

Mp is quite easy

[supple mountain]

yeah but like

[shell arch]

Just don't leak

[supple mountain]

i'm going into mp blind as hell

[shell arch]

Well uh

[supple mountain]

i can't even do phantom without leaks

and i didn't choose the extra 4 temp lp

[shell arch]

Just kill the assistants fast. Or else you're going to need 30 hp seals to leak mp

I'd suggest to use s2 goldendogcat

[supple mountain]

i thought it's only super late into the stage that mp gets up to walk into our house

[storm current]

you can block mp btw

[supple mountain]

but i cant damage him directly

[shell arch]

Yeah. That's why you need frds

[supple mountain]

unless you mean i just slap gummy down onto him

[shell arch]

And 2 medics. And a dp printer

[storm current]

you will be fine

[supple mountain]

i have none of those

[storm current]

you have GG

[supple mountain]

bruh

[shell arch]

For frd you have uh

Not frd but rd

[supple mountain]

and i have no specialist voucher options

[shell arch]

*5 aa sniper. Castermiya (guard s1 better imo). Surtr

[supple mountain]

it's only sniper or defender

[shell arch]

Oh wow and also spalter s2

[supple mountain]

so sniper or defender

[shell arch]

Spalter s2 can deal with 2 mp at once if placed correctly + hold a lane

[shell arch]

Imo ambriel promote but wait for 2nd opinion

[supple mountain]

i don't have ambriel mod

or m3 s2

[shell arch]

Do you have guardmiya?

[supple mountain]

yes

[shell arch]

I'd change and use s1

[supple mountain]

1st skill is uhh lv 7

[shell arch]

It's ok i guess

You can do it

You're dalao after all

[supple mountain]

dalao?

[shell arch]

Pro

[supple mountain]

i'm not pro

i have like

[shell arch]

Did you watch some vids about mp stage?

[supple mountain]

the biggest skill issue possible

[shell arch]

You should

Going blind is a mistake

[supple mountain]

uhhh ive only watched an abyssal hunter clear of it

[shell arch]

Pls rewatch and pay attention to enemies etc

Maybe ask 2nd opinion about what to pick between def and sniper recs on #help

I'm leaning to promote ambriel. Use s1

[supple mountain]

ok i'll rewatch it now and take some notes ig

[shell arch]

Btw gg s3 and ambriel s2 global range will not aim at mp asses until there are no other enemies than them

That's why i recommend s2 gg and s1 ambriel

[supple mountain]

quick question how much is 470s in minutes?

[storm current]

8

[supple mountain]

thanks

[sonic willow]

[supple mountain]

what

[sonic willow]

470 seconds * (1 minute/60seconds) = 7.83 minutes

[supple mountain]

thanks

[molten swan]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09qxkEJmRGo

damn surtrless 6 op

[latent monolith]

8:20 just reminds me how insane NG S3 arts tanking is

Max risk CC boss doing almost 0 damage

[molten swan]

Anni 1, completed

[supple mountain]

gj

[latent monolith]

max risk boss damage

What 100 res does to a man(fred)

[molten swan]

I'll do 400 when I'm free and e1 hoshi raised

[cursive wedge]

mod 3 right?

[molten swan]

for now I'll spam anni 1

[main solstice]

then he goes to p2

[shell arch]

@supple mountain how's mp?

[supple mountain]

i completely forgot about it

but it looks p simple to do

[shell arch]

Pls mention me the result

[supple mountain]

migo

do i need surtr in my squad for mp

or nah

[shell arch]

Ye

I think surtr can only deal with 1mp

But she can deal with mobs on her tile too

[tidal sedge]

What's mp?

[supple mountain]

i was gonna use her to burst down that big guy who needs 4 block

[shell arch]

Mouthpiece's asses (assistants)

[shell arch]

There are plenty of time the 4block guy will come

[supple mountain]

ok i'm in it now

[glass monolith]

Time for some global targeting gaming

[vernal lion]

lmao Ambry and GG

this should be easy tho

[shell arch]

I told him to use gg s2 and amb s1 dw

Then again amb e1

[glass monolith]

[shell arch]

[supple mountain]

phase 1 down

@shell arch I DID IT 🫡

[shell arch]

Grats king. You did it by yourself

Also wtf myrtle is only morale support there

No dp printer mp run. Truly a dalao of all time

[vernal lion]

that Myrtle has already been used

from 6 DP to 9 DP

[supple mountain]

yeah i placed her down too close to the scarlet singers

so she died of death

and i just stuck to zima

[tidal sedge]

Ok this is my roster
I am trying to do frozen abandoned city

this is what I am thinking

I dont wanna waste sanity so please lmk if I should change anything

[shell arch]

Damn i died

[tidal sedge]

Bro I am new

[supple mountain]

wouldn't it be better to place mud one tile up?

[tidal sedge]

Atleast my mudrock has m1 and myrtle has m3

[shell arch]

Hello, i am also new

[tidal sedge]

How do you do get that image?

[shell arch]

There's dalao naga here. He can help

[supple mountain]

discord update makes the image size smaller instead of flooding

kind of obsolete

[shell arch]

How would you deal with ufos btw?

[supple mountain]

[glass monolith]

That rule might die with new discord shit. As long as you single post them

[tidal sedge]

oh retreat myrtle later and spam gravel

[tidal sedge]

see the pins there is a link
dont ask me why I ignored the image rule

[tidal sedge]

see my roster and lmk if i should replace someone or bring someone or change a position?

[vernal lion]

I mean, I can see a lot of "level 1" op

you don't really need to post them

[supple mountain]

https://map.ark-nights.com/map

[tidal sedge]

Sorry

[vernal lion]

ok so, your squad is good

at least you got Thorns and Mudrock

[shell arch]

You can ask naga. I'm very incompetent to give stage advices

[lethal dragon]

Then advice me about how to get top op ceobe

[molten swan]

cope caster crowd control ig

[vernal lion]

let me check a bit

[tidal sedge]

And exu s1 or s2?

I was gonna e2 her but I am a bit tight on mats

and anni go away in 21 hour

[crude blade]

S2

In general

Better than S1

[vernal lion]

ok it does look good

but you will need to bait the freeze drone and freeze spider too

[tidal sedge]

Yes with gravel

I decided to remove exu and borrow someone actually

but I am confused between gg and fia

This what I was thinking for fia

perfumer can heal her + passive healing to keep her hp up for the talent bonus

if gavial is last deployed range units wouldnt hurt her either

or I could borrow a gg s2 and put on tile where perfumer is facing right, but if nearl is blocking someone, gg wont hit them unless i bring s3 for global range

what do you recommend @vernal lion ?

[lethal dragon]

Fia'd be behind perfumer

[vernal lion]

yea, but Thorns will get block there

so you will need Lappland to proc skill more

Fia will help for the dmg

[fresh copper]

Red tile buffed Jessleton nearly killing Astesia with S2 up

[tidal sedge]

and my placement is good or behind perfumer as abd said?

[vernal lion]

that Fia spot is really good with your placement

this anni is not hard, but the most annoying part is you have to pay attention to the type of enemy

there's a lot of annoying mob here

just remember to activate skill and bait with Gravel and Red

[supple mountain]

is 15% arts dodge really gonna do a lot for playwright or should i just go for ignore 70% def

[cursive wedge]

def

[vernal lion]

you would just pick HP increase for ally, or increase dmg dealt to enemy instead
the dodge rate is just suck

[supple mountain]

i already picked hp increase tho

[vernal lion]

then you don't need to worry about him

just focus on dmg

[supple mountain]

which one is better to get from here

[proud drift]

Arts weaving is nice

Supreme ring if early

[cursive wedge]

only 5 invested

[lethal dragon]

Holy

I can't go lower than 500 because of OCD

[cursive wedge]

im not eve at 500

[supple mountain]

i had more a while back

but i had to take some out

[floral sundial]

spawnkill him with ntr

[supple mountain]

is the atk down useful for playwright?

[cursive wedge]

sp relic seems good

[floral sundial]

+sp no doubt

[supple mountain]

i have touch for sp

but a little extra sp never could go wrong with it

[vernal lion]

pick the nerf atk

will help a lot for later

[fresh copper]

I can but won't cuz that's boring

[elder flume]

pulling tattered pillar is weirdge

the hook just stays

[tidal sedge]

[proud drift]

"take some out"

you have a locked slot

did you fuckin take out an ingot

at the cost of 64

[supple mountain]

no

i just didn't get that far

it was only about

202 for my highest ivestment rec

first try lets go

what on gods green earth is this fucking map

[molten swan]

2 puppets spawncamp middle

red puppets from top left middle right

drunkards top right

have fun

[supple mountain]

oh it's easy

[vernal lion]

I'm pretty sure ending 4 is the easiest one from all endings

but you will need 2 luck times with Encounter

[molten swan]

it's harder than mouthpiece

simply because of that fucking -50 aspd arts dot shit

[vernal lion]

just kill

[supple mountain]

mfw i have no chalter ling kal'tsit bagpipe rosmontis mountain and saria

which one

[vernal lion]

do you play many classes

like vanguard, guard, medic, etc... total of 8 classes

[supple mountain]

uhh

not rlly?

[vernal lion]

mf you have 7 classes, and you say not rlly???

[supple mountain]

yes

[vernal lion]

pick the fan

free +10% for each of your op base on the number of class in the squad

[supple mountain]

thorns surtr gladiia or chen

[vernal lion]

max up to +70% for all of your op when there's 8 classes

[supple mountain]

yeah i got the fan now

stacked gg

[vernal lion]

you don't have boss killer, get Surtr

[supple mountain]

aight thanks

[vernal lion]

if you want easy run, you need to have each type of op

[supple mountain]

i don't have a lot of built ops tho

i just start off with the standard gg cardigan and adnachiel

[vernal lion]

that's why IS and SSS are for whale

more op, more fun

low op, low fun

ez

[supple mountain]

i already have fun currently tho

[vernal lion]

it will be fun first, then boring later

[supple mountain]

i think i'll just save my ingots for now

[north ravine]

How do I kill emperors blade?

In WD EX 8

[supple mountain]

not this shit again

[vernal lion]

have you killed his first phase?

[north ravine]

I can get him to second phase but after that he kills everyone

Any specific way to counter him?

[vernal lion]

the op that currently deals most dmg to him will get prio for the smoke bomb

he will drop that when lower than 50% of phase 1, and every 25% of phase 2

[north ravine]

So he casts it 5 times in total?

[vernal lion]

yes

also, if the op that deals most dmg to him already got the smoke,
he will target the other op that also deals dmg to him,
if not, he will targets other last deploy op

if there's no condition meet, he will drop smoke on himself

[north ravine]

But who is good at dealing with him like which op?

[vernal lion]

no one

[north ravine]

Shit

[supple mountain]

everyone is fucked

but idt typewriter is affected by the fart cloud

unless i misremembered

[fluid sail]

guard Chen s3 has iframes so if you have/borrow her + warfarin s2 she can oneshot him + his fart cloud ends up on warfarin instead bc funny iframe

[vernal lion]

btw which op you got there

[supple mountain]

oh i am splendidly fucked and underprepared

i can't even e2 my surtr

[vernal lion]

have fun with RNG yet

[north ravine]

I have skill issues

[supple mountain]

not yet

but i just did ursus desire

naga should i go for exu?

but the playwright has like 1k def.... she ain't gonna do a dent on him

[fresh copper]

Astesia gaming

[supple mountain]

gaming

first time i've seen somebody use breeze

[vernal lion]

then you should be fun,
I was much more worse than you bro

[plain gate]

nope, just tried

[supple mountain]

so is it affected by it

?

or nah

[plain gate]

it doesnt

at least it's what happened for me

[supple mountain]

so it doesn't count as an operator

[fluid sail]

yeah typewriter can’t be buffed or debuffed

[vernal lion]

yea, the typewriter isn't, but then he will fart on the op that has that typewriter

so, have fun

[fluid sail]

it’s a summonable thing like nightingale’s cages

[tidal sedge]

can mudrock handle 1 or 2 of them at once? with s2?

[vernal lion]

as long as she doesn't get frozen

she can tank all 3

[tidal sedge]

The previous strat had a small problem

a drone was leaking

so I now changed

[supple mountain]

should i get andreana or exu from sniper voucher

[vernal lion]

you don't use Exu, if you don't have enough buff things

[supple mountain]

i don't have any buffers

[vernal lion]

then just skip

[supple mountain]

so no andreana

[tidal sedge]

Naga this kept leaking

So now I was thinking of this
gg s2 or s3 is my main confusion

[vernal lion]

sr I forgot about that you remove Exu to replace Fia

[supple mountain]

oh wait i could bring ambriel for global range duo

[tidal sedge]

oh no worries I am gonna try again, what u think about the one I sent above? or I could just change my previous one and remove bp coz fia handle the top side and put exu there?

[vernal lion]

are you on the final stage

[supple mountain]

yeah

about to go in

but i just need to pick an op then i can go in

[vernal lion]

global is kinda suck here

because mob and boss have high HP

[supple mountain]

well i don't have my surtr promoted

[vernal lion]

I think more about the boss

[supple mountain]

maybe guardmiya s2 can work

or castermiya to swap back to

[vernal lion]

boss stat, if you need

[tidal sedge]

@vernal lion I could remove bp and put exu behind perfumer or should I try the new one with gg?

what ur opinion?

[supple mountain]

thanks

[vernal lion]

you will use this for now right?

[tidal sedge]

the one with fia? yes

[vernal lion]

then in return, it will leak top drone

[tidal sedge]

fia should kill it

Sorry for poor quality, streamable actin up, but notice how bp scratch top drone while fia delete it
https://streamable.com/47pbqw

the top and bot drone pause

If there is a drone which doesnt pause and just fly past then maybe it could leak

[vernal lion]

use your previous placement, but remove aa sniper on the op because Fia does all dmg there

so you can place aa sniper for the bot

[tidal sedge]

Thanks for the advice:D

[sonic willow]

can't you do the thing with lumen and thorns on originium tile

[proud drift]

Ice

Pls tell me you have archetto

Fia S2 works so much better for that map

But I personally had chetto I guess

What’s the prefered alloy stage nowadays? 10-14?

[vernal lion]

red tile Thorns only works for high end squad

because you will need op to kill the drone

before it lands the freeze bomb on Thorns

[lethal dragon]

Aye

[vernal lion]

not much different

I just stick to S3-6

[proud drift]

Oh

I made an autodeploy for 10-14 lmao

[lethal dragon]

S3-6 doesn't have t4 drop so that's kinda eh

[proud drift]

Oh but s3-6 doesn’t have the t4 as a drop

[lethal dragon]

10-4 is efficient in long run

S3-6 for emergency needs

[vernal lion]

I do emergency needs

because it's what I need

[lethal dragon]

:surtrnom.gif:

[proud drift]

Oh I just need like

30 alloy rn

To m3 mountain

6 CEU and 4 t4 grindstone

[lethal dragon]

Mountain M3 hmm

I'll do it one day

[neat skiff]

Mountain S2M3 is kind of the reason for his place in the meta.

[lethal dragon]

The thing is I hardly use him

[supple mountain]

ambriel or andreana for playwright

[proud drift]

I decided to keep him at lv40 cuz I wanna E2 blaze and phantom as well lol

Kinda need the funds

On a dead week especially

[supple mountain]

how many medics are best to bring to playwright

[latent monolith]

Iirc if you have NG one is enough

[supple mountain]

i was thinking of bringing all 4 of mine

[supple mountain]

yeah i have ng s3 m2

is that enough?

[proud drift]

Sadly

No amount of medics can cure the permanent aspd debuff

[latent monolith]

Idk ask someone more experienced with that fight

[proud drift]

[supple mountain]

wait aspd debuff

huh

[proud drift]

Imagine talulah ignite, but it’s permanent and it debuffs attack speed

[supple mountain]

i didnt know anything abt that

[proud drift]

[supple mountain]

but i have uh aspd relic

with 24 ingots

[latent monolith]

That would help somewhat

[proud drift]

Oh and if u undeploy the op or they die the tile becomes undeployable

So it’s a mix of mandragora and talulah

It won’t help cuz it’s not chalice

[supple mountain]

so am i right to assume that the playwright ignite thing makes his attacks stronger against it?

[proud drift]

I dunno about that

[supple mountain]

like talulah

[proud drift]

It’s just that the aspd debuff is quite heavy

[supple mountain]

how heavy exactly

like -50??

[proud drift]

Talulah doesn’t do more damage to ignited as far as I know

Around -50 iirc yea

[latent monolith]

It's 50

[supple mountain]

oh

oh fuck

can't like a therapist get rid of it

[latent monolith]

No

[supple mountain]

say for example uhh

[latent monolith]

It's permanent

[supple mountain]

lumen s3

fuck

[vernal lion]

that's why I killed the boss pretty fast, it's not become my issue anymore

[proud drift]

[supple mountain]

oh but i have +30 aspd book for spalter so maybe she can put up with it

[vernal lion]

do you have Gravel?

[glass monolith]

SP 20 you say? (crafts spawn kill with Fartooth)

[supple mountain]

no

[vernal lion]

then die

[supple mountain]

i didn't get any frd

[vernal lion]

I feel like frd become pretty useful for now

[latent monolith]

Wait does it clear when dollkeeper transforms

[lethal dragon]

If you don't spawn kill him you suffer

[supple mountain]

but maybe i could use that excessiveness relic to chip away at pt

[supple mountain]

idk?

i never tried it

[vernal lion]

no, it won't

[proud drift]

Btw he gains giga resistances under 50% hp

[latent monolith]

He doesn't target already affected ops

[proud drift]

[supple mountain]

like enraged talulah...

[proud drift]

Oh and he has talulah explosion type thing

[supple mountain]

wdym by that

like similar to the fire balls?

[proud drift]

Y’know how she snaps and ignited targets go kaboom

Similar to that

[supple mountain]

or the aggregrates

oh that

[lethal dragon]

Another way to cheese that stage is Lee + ng

[supple mountain]

i have no lee

[proud drift]

It’s pretty much literally the product of love between talulah and mandragora

[supple mountain]

if kashchey and mandra had a kid who's hot

[latent monolith]

Wait what does Lee do

Just bait attacks and dodge?

[proud drift]

Btw ngl

[supple mountain]

he looks cool

[proud drift]

For many people

Playwright isn’t the hardest part of the stage

It’s the funny shamans

[supple mountain]

are those guys similar to the enranged possessed guys who r in like

chp 6

not the throwers but

the other guys

[proud drift]

No it’s the dudes who commit seppuku when you kill them

And they explode

And do damage

[latent monolith]

Oh like the TW guys?

[supple mountain]

oh those guys who like take control of nearby towers when they die

?

[vernal lion]

it's TW guys

[vernal lion]

Idk man but ending 4 is much easier than other ending for real tho

even Bear ending is shit a lot

[turbid badge]

majister blood witches 😢

[proud drift]

I went into ed3 for the first time, only had a free e2 texas

I put her on blue gate

Little did I know

Dancer jumpscare

[supple mountain]

[turbid badge]

winterwisp massive arts damage

[vernal lion]

I just finish first 2 times of ending 4 tho

[proud drift]

Idk how you can be bothered to play so much of IS

Maybe you have the luxury of having many choices from any voucher or sth and thus allowed to play random stuff

[vernal lion]

leader and gathering squad are pretty good for my playstyle

support squad is just, for aspd relic

so you need to cope for it

[proud drift]

I like support the most, but I started taking medic sniper e2

Cuz I have a lot of snipers

[vernal lion]

I have all

[proud drift]

Or rather

I use snipers the most

[vernal lion]

but I like the gathering squad

[proud drift]

Cuz Fia Archetto and Pozemka

[vernal lion]

very easy to use

[proud drift]

The three of wives

[vernal lion]

roguelike is pure RNG, but still it needs your good play to beat the game easily

[proud drift]

Ya but issue is

In other roguelikes you don’t have to play 2 years for a good roster

[vernal lion]

planning and management are the key

[proud drift]

So while IS is a roguelike

It doesn’t reward you as well for progress and learning

As something like, say, Hades does

[vernal lion]

other roguelike games, you still need to grind for suitable char tho

[proud drift]

Yea but the grind isn’t 2 years

[supple mountain]

should i still pick someone up from the sniper voucher or just leave it

[proud drift]

And you can have variety after a week of gameplay

And not the same ops every run with only different relics

[vernal lion]

focus on the strat you are playing tho

[supple mountain]

dude i'm not even following a strat

i'm just gonna make it up as i go along

[vernal lion]

I mean it's up to you

we don't even know what needed op for you

and everytime I play, this is literally 100% of the time

good luck or bad luck, just need to overcome it and you're good

[proud drift]

I don’t like starting with 2 specialist vouchers and a medic voucher

Or supporter voucher

[supple mountain]

uhh well

[proud drift]

(I don’t like using blue woman)

[supple mountain]

i need a laneholder

and someone to kill playwright

the problem is

[turbid badge]

i hate starting off w supporter too loll specialist atleast i have gladdia and can borrow spalter/kazemaru

or use weedy

[supple mountain]

none of my ops are particularly strong or dubbed boss killers

[proud drift]

Oh now I have gladiia for specialist too

[supple mountain]

[vernal lion]

the best laneholder for final stage is Kal'tsit

[proud drift]

But supporter like

[supple mountain]

i don't have kal'tsit

[proud drift]

I have skalter and ling

But ling is just

Boring

[turbid badge]

theres also gnosis but i dont have him

[vernal lion]

you can, borrow op from support when pick the voucher for the first time you play

[turbid badge]

😢

[supple mountain]

see the problem is i was gonna use spalter s2 to lanehold then surtr s3 to make some dents in playwright

[proud drift]

Oh gnose

I don’t like taking gnose to IS tho

[supple mountain]

but i cant promote surtr

[proud drift]

Bosses being immune to freeze and whatnot

[turbid badge]

[vernal lion]

this is my luck

[proud drift]

That’s based tho

Ez playwright bait

[latent monolith]

M6 mod 3 bait

[glass monolith]

Jokes on you, specialist 3 medics

(Don't pick +1 temp recruit team start)

[proud drift]

E2 kaltsit and ptilopsis is not too bad

[glass monolith]

No Kaltsit

And if i go hard mode eat +1 recruit

[turbid badge]

i wish i had hibi alter for medic

[supple mountain]

why

[glass monolith]

I have hibi alter to commit war crimes in -75% control center

[turbid badge]

damage and self sustain helps in early stages

[supple mountain]

i use her and she's not that good in battle tbh...

[proud drift]

It’s also just not a dead voucher

I don’t want a medic voucher especially if I have ptilo and kaltsit, but no snipers or goldenglow

Honeyberry is nice but like

[turbid badge]

yeah

[proud drift]

Pozemka and Fia makes phantom a joke for me

So honeyberry isn’t necessary anymore

[supple mountain]

i should go for left right?

[proud drift]

That even a question

[supple mountain]

now it is

also should i get the gas tanks or keep the sp prop

[proud drift]

O teta is sharing saga s2m3

Time to do an is run

[supple mountain]

I DID IT

last minute clutch

[proud drift]

[sonic willow]

nice

did you not borrow anyone tho

[supple mountain]

uhh

i borrowed a gg at the start of my run

[lethal dragon]

Taunt + dodge

So you get to deploy others as you please

[sonic willow]

oh

[fresh copper]

Honeyberry at E2 80 S1M3 for IS3

Seaborn nervous impairment is annoying to deal with

[vernal lion]

I sleep

[supple mountain]

bed time

[glass monolith]

I have option to do Toron LT-6 x2 or LT-5 x3 to hit weekly cap, guess i go for latest

[proud drift]

Not one

But TWO blue women

Wtf naga

[glass monolith]

The fact that he e2ed both add layout of cursed to this

[sonic willow]

is there a smooth brain way to beat SSS?

[glass monolith]

Ahahaha. No

[proud drift]

Yes take mlynar

[sonic willow]

I know I have the ops, but brain power is not really on my side

[proud drift]

[glass monolith]

Taking Goldenglow, Gnosis and dying 30 times until it works all the way

[sonic willow]

[vernal lion]

oh fck off

I didn't get any condition for 4th ending

[proud drift]

i got spinach on first saga run

[sonic willow]

exactly why I gave up collecting the final badge for each squad

[glass monolith]

First fight for 4th ending when my squad are 3 people

[turbid badge]

yeah

[tidal sedge]

thorns keep getting freeze, lumen has like 6 bullet only, he waste bullet even if he just has cold status, pretty impractical even with s2

need whisperain I think for her status talent

[tidal sedge]

s2? anyways I did that but thanks for rcmd, I will try it if I ever need to visit that map again

[sonic willow]

you do realize lumen has module that applies status res whenever he heals

[tidal sedge]

I didn't get his module because the 2nd Module is better imo

[glass monolith]

I didn't get archetto module 1 because i want module 2... Also I don't have archetto... Also module 1 still not in game

[proud drift]

That’s kinda assuming you have archetto

Fia’s S2 is extremely low cooldown if you have archetto on field

Even lower if chen too

[tidal sedge]

coz of archetto talent? ah chen as well

offensive sp go brr

[proud drift]

And it does more damage than S3 at that

[glass monolith]

What if i say i have S2M3 Quercus?

[tidal sedge]

sorry but I was playing on a friend's account and their roster is pretty limited

So i had to inhale copium

[vernal lion]

this team is cracked

[proud drift]

Huh weedy reaches?

And she knocks heralds hard enough?

[supple mountain]

apparently

[glass monolith]

S2M2 is 3 tiles ahead was it

[vernal lion]

so far so good

alr test over

what a perfect team

[cyan gorge]

the forbidden Heavyrain cheese

[vernal lion]

so, Horn s1 on red tile is really cracked tho

[glass monolith]

Tell me about it

[vernal lion]

she should be called Heavyfog

the most niche skill ever

[glass monolith]

i wonder if we ever get cheese themed skin

[turbid badge]

Not that pocture again

[radiant plinth]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/903310247224041524/1076983355477872680/Screenshot_20230219-144703.png?width=1609&height=905

i have yet another gamble to make

after i thrm

i kafka immediately

that way i can get a kafka for the redberserker

and then another one for the junkmen behind it

and line it up with the vampire

to set up goldenglwo

[proud drift]

Do you have enough time to kill mephisto tho

[radiant plinth]

120s

If push comes to shove

240s

[craggy turret]

TC-7 challenge mode?
Here are my ops, I leak on the top lane and my mountain can't tank the drones.

[proud drift]

Which map is tc-7

@craggy turret can you send the map pic too

[craggy turret]

Sure

[proud drift]

Oh this

Wouldn’t it be better for mountain to solo top right

[craggy turret]

Still leaves the drones to deal with

[molten swan]

Idk just lee?

[scarlet ledge]

tc 7

kek

funni stage

[proud drift]

Drones shouldn’t be a problem

[craggy turret]

To tank the drones or to handle the top lane?

[proud drift]

Put hoshi bottom

[craggy turret]

I tried borrowing a max level mudrock to tank the bottom

She died

Problem is the guys with the hammers

[proud drift]

Huh

How did mudmud die

My e2lv40 s2m3 mudmud solod bottom

[craggy turret]

Bottom at spawn or bottom nec.xt to the machine thingies?

She does if I put her next to spawn

[proud drift]

Bottom under drone

[craggy turret]

On the second lane?

[proud drift]

You can borrow thorns

Put thorns on T

Hoshiguma on H

Silence on the right to heal both

that only leaves to find a way to deal with bullies

[craggy turret]

Gnosis and eyja clean them up nicely

Oh and the guy that uses the stairs

[proud drift]

If you put them between thorns and hoshi they will die

You can prob put irene 2 tile behind hoshi with S3

Also who uses the stairs

[craggy turret]

Put them next to silence

[proud drift]

Top right mountain solos it

[craggy turret]

Hammer guy

[proud drift]

My gladiia killed top right solo

No way mountain can’t

Put mountain here

[glass monolith]

Won't he get bonked to death by AFK hammer bro

[proud drift]

Don’t think so

My gladiia didn’t die

Why would mountain die

[turbid badge]

bruh i had melantha kill them

[molten swan]

Surely

[turbid badge]

no way mountains dieing

[glass monolith]

Because gladiia don't have reduced def and actually fights back?

[craggy turret]

Like this ?

[proud drift]

Mountain has 8% max hp regen instead of 2.5%?

[molten swan]

3.5*

[proud drift]

Mine was mod2

[molten swan]

Glad also has 30% dr

So

[proud drift]

So 3% ig

[turbid badge]

just give him a medic

[craggy turret]

Mod 3 mountain

[turbid badge]

mod 3 mountain

[proud drift]

M3 mountain

Shouldn’t die

8% regen

[glass monolith]

They are ranged. First one won't move right away and can be bonking whoever in front of no deploy tile

[craggy turret]

Wait no then silence can't get to hoshi...

[proud drift]

Silence on right

Face left

Next to the 4 things

[proud drift]

Where his meteorite is

[turbid badge]

mountain m3 e2

idk it sounds plausible ill see rw

rq

[craggy turret]

Ah mk that just leaves the top lane with the stairs to deal with

[proud drift]

Only hammers go thru top

I think m3 mountain can solo it

[craggy turret]

I'll give it a go then

[proud drift]

I think hoshi will leak some dudes tho

Bullies won’t die fast enough

So I’d put irene 2 tiles behind hoshi

She will hit bullies and spam S3

While also catching leaks

I can’t test rn myself anything cause I had to uninstall ak for a bit on phone
