strategy

[foggy grove]

skill issue smh

[scarlet fulcrum]

For dogs all u need kill fast enough or counter it with green number. Kal mon3tr also good bait for missiles. NG s3 (unraised but wtv)stainless s2 anything goes with ur squad

Also i prefer sexas s2 here

[rugged wigeon]

...i didn't think of that. brain issue

[scarlet fulcrum]

Its actually good stuff to use, they give u 4 or smt

Any thicc hp will become good bait, for example Mon3tr. Just deploy somewhere before shower

[rugged wigeon]

who do i use to block steam knight? saria?

[scarlet fulcrum]

Just cycle mon3tr and surtr, surtr when sk releasing falcon punch

Mlynar and sexas will finish it

Uh if insist on stall saria instead mon3tr sure, as long as shamare and stainless there its breeze

[glass monolith]

Fuck you Warf, and fuck you EBLAN(a) who can't see doll in top left corner because range 2 is based

[rugged wigeon]

this worked

still can’t survive the dogs lmao

[scarlet fulcrum]

Sexas s2 will help

Or they have low def most blocker should fine as long as u counter it with green number

[rugged wigeon]

i was using mountain with warf and shielding him with milf

[scarlet fulcrum]

Exu mountain should works if u deploy properly

[rugged wigeon]

aight i’ll try that

[scarlet fulcrum]

They have like 250 or 300 ish def

I forgor 💀

[glass monolith]

I know Warf S2 won't hit Stainless S1, but for some reaons i still think she will

[scarlet fulcrum]

actually no need to waste slot on uxe tbh, just sexas eben or anything relevant to boss will works on dog

[glass monolith]

Reed's sister L

[timid schooner]

yeah i think i got skill issue

help

[glass monolith]

My expert opinion: it explode

[sullen rover]

mountain + healer can hold the left lane texas and some fast redeploys can stall the boss until she dies

[scarlet fulcrum]

Classic throw bodies on boss works indeed

[timid schooner]

aaaaaand me no mountain :(

crap

[sullen rover]

support

use support

[timid schooner]

k

[sullen rover]

kill the mobs with texas and occasionally use gravel or sth remove the invis

while stalling the boss

[fringe jackal]

even the Ling guides (low rarity + 1 core) this time are 'throw Gravel/Jaye/Myrtle/Ling dragon' at Eblana over and over and over and over and over and over and over again until she dies. the guidemaker got so bored that they literally cut the bazillions of rotations out

[glass monolith]

Damn it is sucks IW rerun will be delayed by limited event with short and elegant name - WVWWNB

[foggy grove]

[balmy halo]

fc ex 8, which box does eblana spawn on

[glass monolith]

Uh... Start stage

She will go long way into left one, other enemies will march bottom row then box on their side

[gleaming lodge]

Wei wei wei wei ?

[grand ginkgo]

Im telling you, calling the boss eblan is smth else

[glass monolith]

There is like shoe store named Eblan in CN. Who cares it means swear word in several languages my native included

[grand ginkgo]

our native

anyway

i tried the new anni

its smooth af til 200 kills

and after 200 when robots come in
i get evaporated

[random widget]

Hi Kuv

[grand ginkgo]

hi

[timid schooner]

MAN

mountain not work

any mountain s2m3 here

pls put on #friend-id

[craggy helm]

needs more frd to stall

i tried using texas on mountain a few times to help clear but eventually settled on reed behind mountain for heals and arts dmg, that was enough

[sullen rover]

boss should be around here so she doesnt kill mountain when u stall

wait hold on im brain dead

more healer maybe

[noble pewter]

I just use ling, texalter, monst3r n stall infinitely on bot, n abyss hunter hold lane n perfumer skadi heal

[fringe jackal]

yeah there's a ling guide that's just kaltsit and ling

[noble pewter]

Oh then since he has kalsit he should just borrow a ling n sorta supplement the rest slot with his texasalter n all me thinks

[fringe jackal]

let me find the guide, this one for cm ex 8:

https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1zG4y1J7Z1/?spm_id_from=333.337.search-card.all.click

clean up with any frd

[grand ginkgo]

I somehow got to 250, but chen alter isnt cutting it for killing robots quickly

Oh i need magic damage huh

[autumn grotto]

u still need? ill send later and ping u. only lvl 30 tho

[timid schooner]

just put it just in case i need it

[autumn grotto]

can can

[timid schooner]

noooooooo

crap i was so close

[glass monolith]

You have Myrtle, how the fuck you run out of DP

[tidal sedge]

this is why u have to stall her

[grand ginkgo]

Man

This is kinda balls im not gonna lie

[glass monolith]

it is cube

[fringe jackal]

the ling and kaltsit guide is calling to u

[grand ginkgo]

surprisingly enough ifrit e1 performs much worse than e1 GG
despite like lack of aoe

Are there any other aoe magic damage ops i should at least try i dont wanna give up like that

[glass monolith]

EX-7 CM can go fuck itself

[timid schooner]

YAY I DID IT

but medal failed :(

crap cm is waiting

[somber robin]

for ex 8 cm where do the fires start?

[tawdry basin]

so stoked

just got poze

[fiery solstice]

how to archetto

[timid schooner]

gg trim medal get :))))

i switch kal to s2 and wtf how did her pet survive the vine xdddd

oh yeah and raise my jaye to stall too

[scarlet fulcrum]

Have u ever try chain caster?

[paper frost]

I need the medal clear for FC-EX-7 pls 🥲

[gleaming lodge]

[scarlet fulcrum]

with those squads ur only option just progress, u wont go far with em. Especially ur base unbuilt @grand ginkgo

[gleaming lodge]

What's the medal

[sly drift]

Bring surtr along with silver Ash to slap the invincibles
Win

[timid schooner]

clear ex 7 without any op place on mud titles more than 3 times

is it right

[somber falcon]

just don't deploy on mud

[paper frost]

Ah so no uncle then

[timid schooner]

me with mlynar support and lots of stall:

[grand ginkgo]

Since in dont really know any subclasses/characters, no
i will try one, and if its not close, just continue with the story/event farming

[scarlet fulcrum]

Someone like passenger is chain caster

[sly drift]

Mlynar work too. Idk why ppl struggling with ex-7 cm.

[grand ginkgo]

after i get to 3-4 is it better to farm event or farm base materials first

[paper frost]

Laziness for meh

[mossy ore]

don't deserve medal if laziness honestly

[scarlet fulcrum]

Base, how many tokens u need to buy out goodies from event? (Ignore mod related stuff and bolt screw)

[grand ginkgo]

wanna say like 1300 ish

idm spending some op

since im only gonna buy pretty specific outfits

[scarlet fulcrum]

Yeah just progress till s4-10 u are fine u will lv up on the way tbh

[grand ginkgo]

okidoki

i will try ex3 stage more later then just for fun

those are so much more fun than annis to play

[scarlet fulcrum]

should be easy if aboosing support even at e1 until gel

no having hard time on story so far?

[grand ginkgo]

i had some brainlag on 2-10 (boss) because pepega positioning but other than that, no
i am overlevelled

[scarlet fulcrum]

oh if u want brainded just drop ntrk(nearl alter) or smt on him, he will die in no time. Kross also easily kill him. Just aggro properly, dont tank his meele on that lv. Boss Ranged atk far weaker than meele

[scarlet fulcrum]

#strategy message for example here

[grand ginkgo]

nah nah i beat it like yesterday
the boss in boss stages isnt a problem, they die to like 1 reed alter s2

i usually lose to like, flying units

[scarlet fulcrum]

Max rangers(lizard) if u want cheap aa on early, he is decent for newb

[fiery solstice]

I GOT REED ALT HOW DO I USE HER

[scarlet fulcrum]

Read her trait and skill, u can also try from support 💀

[fiery solstice]

i got two 6 stars today and idk how to use them both

archetto and reed alter

[scarlet fulcrum]

Archetto used for anti air and fairly low defense enemies. She decent on her job, also sp batteries. As usual read her kit from wiki or smt, watch their showcase if you smh still cant understand

showcase sometimes L tho

[glass monolith]

Archetto is blue poison without dot on steroids, and can be used as part of Exodia of turning Fia into 200mm autocannon

[smoky swan]

i did it, mudrock penance stall best strat also reed doing 50% of the dps

[scarlet fulcrum]

Literally Die hard

[glass monolith]

This reed placement can fit 7 Tetris shaped Ls

[south bone]

Holy shit

[smoky swan]

how did you get everything on fire

[south bone]

I forgot about the medal noo 😭

[glass monolith]

Best stage for people who hate themselves

Oh wait it is not CM

[smoky swan]

oh, it can get worse

[south bone]

Yea i saw it already

fuck

I'm not big brain enough for CM

[glass monolith]

Time to max tooter

[spice gust]

Actually pretty easy stage if u have 2 decent defenders and reed

[south bone]

The flamechaser guards are so goddamn annoying

[glass monolith]

Me after realising than Mudrock can bait second Covid

[gleaming lodge]

Why tf did this chat turn into a flexing channel ?

Nobody asked for your ex-8 solution

[smoky swan]

Yet

who knows, someone may walk into here struggling with ex 8 and saying: man, i am so happy i saw all these solutions. now i too can beat the stage

[tidal coral]

at what point do i stop progressing story and grind characters?

[gleaming lodge]

Do you really think EN scrolls up and reads ?
Wake up mate....

[smoky swan]

let me have some fate.. well, whats left of it atleast

[gleaming lodge]

When you're lower than 30 lvl under the "recommended level"

[tidal coral]

okie dokie

im 3-4

[scarlet fulcrum]

They want to vent their stress here most likely, in different way

[tawdry basin]

what op has erosion in their kit?

[glass monolith]

If you talk about elemental damage - IS4 free operator

[scarlet fulcrum]

erosion only apply when u/enemies drowned on water (they still walk yes)or if there is high tide (only tied to certain event) outside that no. U mostly only will meet corrosion damage outside that

well ig is3 and anni has stage with that theme

so there is no op with erosion kit, thats gonna be dumb

even water chen s3 just liquid animation lmao

[grand ginkgo]

Misha kicked my butt
Time to change strat as nuking seems to be a bad option

Probably just clump everyone up in the corners and have a meat shield in the middle?

[gleaming lodge]

Yes

And don't block her in the first loop

Bait the grenades

And then tank and spank

[grand ginkgo]

Managed to nuke her anyway
Repositioned a lot of the units so i didnt lose to trash mobs after

[oblique flicker]

Can someone help me with this

With those debuffs

[junior jewel]

Having issue with these?

btw if you have push ops, I think this would be useful. so you could put most of your damage on top

[oblique flicker]

Mhhhh i see

I can level shaw i guess

[abstract fable]

Hello .3.

Has anyone defeated lungmen downtown?

See I looked at like 5 videos on it ;0; and I still can’t defeat it!

[prisma wasp]

show your teammates so maybe i can help you?

[pallid heath]

It means that it's not trimmed right?

[foggy grove]

yeah

the arrow means you can still upgrade it to trim

[ebon ocean]

please tell me I can downgrade my dorms

I done fucked up

I wanted a 252 base which calls for four lvl 1 dorms and I've got one maxed dorm rn

[foggy grove]

you can

only right side building can't be downgraded

[ancient hearth]

CM you make your life a lot easier with horn on the bottom lane pointing up to hit the shield guys. Random units will wander into her range and the splash from the flare will reveal them.

[tidal sedge]

Pozy's mod is the reason she shreds Manfred?

[glass monolith]

Pozy mod is reason she HITS manfred

[foggy grove]

can't shred if he dodge

[glass monolith]

Normally you need to hit him with his own cannon to be able to hit him consistently, Fartooth during skill, Pozy(not typowriter)/ with dodge ignore module, true damage sources bypass this bullshit

[tidal sedge]

It is true dmg can shoot through a shield after all

[glass monolith]

Imagine having shield worth 3 of your healthbars and be hit in healthbar

Pozy (e2 60 module 3) S2 can kill mortal dudes and stupid fire casters in 2 casts

[tidal sedge]

Well as Pozy user this is true

[gleaming lodge]

what do you have ?

[turbid badge]

ehhhh

schwarz better

[glass monolith]

You just like her xmas skin

[tidal sedge]

Pozy user: What did u just say?

[rugged talon]

Can anyone help with S5-3?

[turbid badge]

team?

bring 2 marks

marksmen

[rugged talon]

Nevermind, managed to do it

[turbid badge]

wow puzzle damage is purple

[tidal sedge]

And it is not like he has purple armor like some gacha game

[turbid badge]

wao

[tidal sedge]

U wasted NG potential

[glass monolith]

Morale support Roberta Mlynar

[crude oak]

seriously considering taking Hoshi from E2 70 to 90, and Mod X from 1 to 3, anyone want to talk me into/out of it?

[glass monolith]

@gleaming lodge talk him into it

[gleaming lodge]

bruh

no

don't do that

raise Croissant if you need a brick

[turbid badge]

Use nian

[crude oak]

Croissant?

[crude oak]

I do have E2 70 Nian S3M3

[turbid badge]

nian better tank than hoshi

theres ur answer?

[glass monolith]

Best tank is Gravel supported by Roberta device

[ember pulsar]

is croissant that good?

[crude oak]

noted, even without a module?

[tidal sedge]

Guards can block units too right or just tanks ?

[glass monolith]

Block happens if enemy walk into operator and operator has block to block him, in some stages/event where you get to place ranged operators on ground they can block 1 too. But they have issue than they won't attack enemy if they block him with back, while melee operators can freely attack enemy blocked from any direction

[turbid badge]

no u realy want module

lvl 3

thats what makes her tanky af

[glass monolith]

I think you need like module 3 for facetanking Chapter 11 boss assuming your balanced dark souls parry with damage mitigation fails

[crude oak]

on Nian?

and X or Y?

the X I presume?

[glass monolith]

Oh you talk about nian already I was mathing for Hoshi

I just know Nian more stat stick than her, but didn't run maths to find out details

[turbid badge]

her current one yea

The ladder isnt that good

and her +20% hp talent

she becomes a wall

and also +20% defense when blocking

[crude oak]

so you're saying Nian should get E2 90 S2M3 and X Mod 3?

Hoshi recently got pot 5 vs Nian being pot 1

[turbid badge]

mod > masteries but yea

[dark violet]

oh, I thought hoshi was tankier

[turbid badge]

nian is really a brick

[dark violet]

considering her 1/3 chance to dodge any damage

[turbid badge]

sure if u dodge

but like sometimes

well against enemies with high arts dps u can slap a NG, or use hoshiguma dodge ig

[dark violet]

in pure stats, nian is better?

[turbid badge]

mhm defensive wose

wise

offskill shes tankier

[dark violet]

ah, makes sense

so the dodge tips hoshi on the top

[foggy grove]

needing to dodge

💀

[dark violet]

her semi centurion potential is good too

[turbid badge]

it really isnt dodge

its “resist”

idk the is relic doesnt like to use hoshi talent w the dodge relic

lolol

[dark violet]

yeah, that's a sadpepe moment

[foggy grove]

there is nothing tips hoshi on top

[dark violet]

but at least she can resist true damage

[turbid badge]

hoshiguma is cool ig

idk why ppl use s2 i usually use her s3

[dark violet]

her s2 is mostly useful when trying to take down unreachable snipers

[pallid veldt]

why do u use her s3

[dark violet]

her s3 often surprises me in dps

[pallid veldt]

s2 just feels a lot more efficient to me

the def buff is hardly relevant cause shes not gonna die to anything even off skill

[turbid badge]

s2 does like nothing and provides a some extra defense which is cool?

[pallid veldt]

and shes not actually doing any damage with s3

[dark violet]

she is

[pallid veldt]

s3 also does nothing and you have to click more buttons

[turbid badge]

well with s3 she can shred some trash enemies

[pallid veldt]

wow

she can kill the dogs

[dark violet]

the important part is that it becomes a centurion attack

[turbid badge]

ikr!

[pallid veldt]

ok but like

[dark violet]

the big flaw of defensers is being stuck with a sturdy enemy and having crap ones flood over

[pallid veldt]

who is using hoshi to hold a lane solo anyways

[dark violet]

I used her frequently

[pallid veldt]

yeah this happens when you dont other dps helping the defender

no shit the defender gets flood over its because defenders arent supposed to do dps

[scarlet fulcrum]

2023 defender laugh on that

[pallid veldt]

horn s2 moment

[dark violet]

hoshi can, that's the point of s3

[pallid veldt]

shes not doing any damage against enemies that arent basically dogs

[dark violet]

ok, that's wrong but

[pallid veldt]

its also a 50 sp cost skill so i dont really know how hoshi is gonna hold the lane and not get overrun in the 50 seconds shes charging after s3

[dark violet]

enemies go in waves, you rarely need to hold the line that much constantly

[pallid veldt]

i mean if you want to use hoshi as ur dps to kill tough enemy waves

like sure but

we have a lot of operators to do that

[dark violet]

we were talking about hoshi

[pallid veldt]

all of them who do it better than hoshi does

yeah

hoshi isnt the only operator in the game though

talking about an operator in a vacuum doesnt mean anything

[dark violet]

no need to think about other ops when we can use mlynar, I guess

[pallid veldt]

👍

[turbid badge]

so true

just use horse

[dark violet]

the question never was whether or not she's the best op, but her uses

[pallid veldt]

yeah

[scarlet fulcrum]

the only relevance case for her s3 was OD event with defenderknights, her s3 ignore apsd down and kill trash

[turbid badge]

its just s2 feels really bad to use

[pallid veldt]

when has anyone ever been talking about whether shes the best op

[turbid badge]

so i just use s3

[pallid veldt]

she was never the best op and will never be the best op

[turbid badge]

[pallid veldt]

pretty much

[tidal sedge]

bro they consolidated the noob risks with max

[dark violet]

you brought that into the discussion when it wasn't the topic

[pallid veldt]

where

[tidal sedge]

common yotard L

[turbid badge]

lol

[dark violet]

this

[glass monolith]

Hey it is risk i achieved so i can say "LOOK I AM TOP WOOOOOOOOOOO"

[pallid veldt]

elitists in shambles

[turbid badge]

i hate how her s3 can be canceled by stun lololo

[scarlet fulcrum]

week 1 only, yotard doesnt care with w2

[pallid veldt]

i dont see how taking into consideration that there are ops other than hoshi in this game is making an argument for hoshi being the best operator in the game

your point is essentially

if hoshi was the only operator in arknights

her s3 would be better than s2

which i agree with

probably

[tidal sedge]

its both weeks nein

[craggy helm]

hoshi does more damage and is much tankier than most defenders in the game, i borrowed her a lot in early-mid game specifically because she could hold lane and kill weaker enemies
nobody expecting her to hold lane like mountain

[pallid veldt]

nah its both weeks pretty sure

[turbid badge]

nein

[pallid veldt]

wait kirn

u change name

wait kirn were u the one that help me with JT8-3 like

2 years ago

[dark violet]

thing is it never was about the other ops, it was focused on her own kit

[scarlet fulcrum]

That was amigo im sure

[pallid veldt]

analyzing an operator while ignoring every other operator in the game is pointless

its just not applicable to any actual conversation at arknights whatsoever

[pallid veldt]

nah

if amigo was helping me i wouldve never beat it

[turbid badge]

[dark violet]

and analyzing operators while ignoring the autowin ones is pointless too I guess

[tidal sedge]

yotard being considerate of the trash gamers who cannot move the operators on their mobile phone as well as me

[dark violet]

anyway well done, you derailed the topic, let's not waste more time

[tidal sedge]

the fuck was the topic before

[pallid veldt]

yotard being considerate of the trash (EN) gamers who cannot press the pause button while deploying ops (EN)

[turbid badge]

to raise hoshi or not

[tidal sedge]

yes

[turbid badge]

i told them to raise nian

[scarlet fulcrum]

I actually forgor, EN memories 💀

[pallid veldt]

WGT

the guy thinks hoshi s3 is better than s2

[tidal sedge]

no

[pallid veldt]

yes

[glass monolith]

purple

[pallid veldt]

whats the opposite of purple

[surreal star]

elprup

[glass monolith]

S2: Reflect
S3: You can listen to "Beyblade" while using it
Pick your poison

[pallid veldt]

truly

are the beyblade OSTs good

[scarlet fulcrum]

cc blade ost is

[pallid veldt]

ye blade is a banger

[dark violet]

well done being condescending, I never even compared the skills. I guess you're a good example of what you mock in EN

[crude oak]

She has more flat defense with X Mod 3 (Hoshi)

[pallid veldt]

ye im EN

[dark violet]

good to know

[scarlet fulcrum]

we are EN

[tidal sedge]

hoshi is way tankier than nian

but doesnt have shields or a skill

nian like 1270 hoshis like 1650 something

[turbid badge]

No?

how the hell u get 1650

💀

hoshi dodge, makes her nicer at negating some damage, nian usually better at tanking cuz 21% perma her shield break give 21% def perma
hoshi s2 is just 9% more
but Nian got a way larger hp pool which is to consider when comparing who can tank more

[pallid veldt]

@tidal sedge explain

[tidal sedge]

why

[turbid badge]

if it was 1650 ill be using hoshi everywhere frfr

[pallid veldt]

bc he doesnt believe u

idk

[scarlet ledge]

hmmm

k

riase nian

betteru

[pallid veldt]

raise both

u will never die

truly

[scarlet ledge]

[scarlet ledge]

@pallid veldt https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/586589076916797472/1111339636409765938/Screenshot_20230526_003738.jpg

600 pts

[pallid veldt]

pls tell me not

[scarlet ledge]

[pallid veldt]

oh good no kafka

no blacknight

i still not raise my blacknight tbh

[scarlet ledge]

ranged gundam

[pallid veldt]

i was going to but then realize her little summon is not elephant

[scarlet ledge]

have 3.75m hp

i think

[pallid veldt]

if it was elephant i wouldve raise

[scarlet ledge]

i forgot

[pallid veldt]

wtf

at r18?

[scarlet ledge]

ya

[pallid veldt]

how much hp does skalter have

d15

i just want to put into reference

[glass monolith]

More than you like amount

[pallid veldt]

wait

this is so unbased

so basically i haveto kill like 12 d15 isharmlas

[scarlet ledge]

disa

i didntt even bother recording my 600 pts POO

its just too fucking long

[pallid veldt]

good thing i am doing my post-cc8 strat on post-cc12

[glass monolith]

I heard you can wait for more risks to unlock to get it faster

[scarlet ledge]

last day us besy to do 600 pts

much easier

[pallid veldt]

pinch out was like

3 month after cc12 right?

[glass monolith]

But who am i to refuse feeding out Ceobe

[turbid badge]

wait well she can

reach that yea

but nian hp makes her tank better

[pallid veldt]

i just try hoshi s3 on

chp 3 skullshatterer

maxed hoshi but not s3m3

[lapis hornet]

why's everyone riding nian nowadays?!

[turbid badge]

this can be seen with steamknight

[pallid veldt]

she did like

60% of skullshatterer

[lapis hornet]

is it cause she tanked that uh steam dude

[pallid veldt]

[turbid badge]

mhm yup

[pallid veldt]

idk all the nian riders probably dont have nian anyways

so

i still cant believe that her arms are red though

[crude oak]

I used Hoshi, that's what's interesting

[pallid veldt]

i thought that was something else

[turbid badge]

Nian got 3699 hp max lvl + 400 from trust and another 375 from module making her 4474 hp before applying talent
with talent (no pot) +16% it goes up to 5189 hp
hoshi got 3850 hp at max lvl +0 from trust and another 200 from the module that increase her def making her 4050

giving Nian an extra 1139 hp compared to hoshi

[crude oak]

but my Nian is Pot 1 and she's limited

[pallid veldt]

valid

[turbid badge]

what

i guess u can raise hoshi its just nian has way more hp to tank with

hopefully her dodge goes in ur favor when u need it

[crude oak]

SL7 Shining S2

[crude oak]

Pot 4 maybe?

[turbid badge]

help wierd scenarios where u need 4 block are so low

[pallid veldt]

real

[crude oak]

yeah, I almost went 4 block initially too

[turbid badge]

like u can kill the enemies before u even need 4 block, and when u need it its like in niche clears

[pallid veldt]

maybe ill just get both

pull a schwarz incident

[lapis hornet]

yeah just spend some extra op to farm

[pallid veldt]

keep yourself safe

i actually converted all my OP from this event to orundum when i got it

force of habit

[turbid badge]

wtf disa skinless

[glass monolith]

Literally next event: You need 4 block to block this enemy

[pallid veldt]

[glass monolith]

Idk, i didn't watch, i seen memes

[crude oak]

I did S3M3 Nian, but then turned around and used S2 at SL7 for CC#8?

the Near Light one

[scarlet fulcrum]

Its only ends at misha on s1

[pallid veldt]

[turbid badge]

lmaoo

disa moment

[pallid veldt]

[crude oak]

no, it was from the Anime

[pallid veldt]

i play game to win i dont play game to read book

[scarlet fulcrum]

just say infected girl

[pallid veldt]

ah

[crude oak]

I liked how it fleshed out the first 3 chapters in the way that it did

[turbid badge]

yea infected girl

[pallid veldt]

the infected girl

[crude oak]

I can't wait to see season 2

[pallid veldt]

(there are like 27 billion of them right)

[crude oak]

I hope I don't get emotional

[pallid veldt]

ah

misha is skullshatterers sister

[glass monolith]

Waiting for chapter 9 warcrimes arc

[pallid veldt]

that is crazy

i think i killed skullshatterer with SA s2

truly gaming

nvm wtf is this

[crude oak]

oh my, my Shining is Pot 5...

yeah, way higher than I expected

[pallid veldt]

courier s2 usage

i was truly based in 2021

[scarlet fulcrum]

Pogger, u farmed puke bag?

[crude oak]

Rosmontis destroying stuff

[pallid veldt]

no

this from 2021 bro

[crude oak]

those two music videos did great job on those bosses though IMO

[pallid veldt]

isnt the puke bag stage like

in chapter 6 or 7

[turbid badge]

[scarlet fulcrum]

Makes sense there is no way u use melansa

[glass monolith]

She just hit support of building, some people expect Guardians of Galaxy arrow scene from her

[crude oak]

she nearly destroys Patriot before Amiya

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cspL4AQ3FM

[pallid veldt]

the fact that i still dont have autodeploy on patriot on my account is kinda cringe

[scarlet fulcrum]

Kinda surprising indeed

[pallid veldt]

what was i cookin on R8-6

this is truly one of the e1 SA moments of all time

[turbid badge]

wow rare disa e2 4*

[pallid veldt]

ye

[scarlet fulcrum]

Meanwhile my auto scuffed af on pat smh worked till end

[pallid veldt]

i have like

4 e2 4*

pepela

[crude oak]

I've only done H8-4 once

[pallid veldt]

tbf i think

i beat patriot with 2 e2s

when i first did it

[turbid badge]

melansa

[pallid veldt]

so make sense that i borrowed

[scarlet fulcrum]

Speedruner fr

[pallid veldt]

ye

[crude oak]

I remember doing the H stages and he was quite easy

[pallid veldt]

i was so stupid in beginning of playing

i speedrun so hard

now its like

if this skill not afk skill i dont want it

[scarlet fulcrum]

The reason i speed run only for lore now pretty much just unga bunga

[scarlet ledge]

i dont have it too

i have to grab someone supp when i reach the boss

[pallid veldt]

i remember i borrow surtr on 7-18

but still very hard for me

hardest story mode stages for me

probably tie between H8-4 and M8-8 CM

i try for both so long

[crude oak]

I copy/pasta strats because I don't have time to figure it out on my own...

[scarlet ledge]

nglidk what i grab for 7-18

i rushed it when chp7 is released

[crude oak]

did Thorns drop before Patriot?

[scarlet fulcrum]

i bruteforced with SA pramanix Rosa back then, truly bad player habit Rosa realeased early on EN still rember it

[turbid badge]

YEA

haroon

harpoon

[orchid marlin]

How can I kill her a second time, that shield never drop 😤

[glass monolith]

Spawn kill enjoyer: True damage to bypass shield
Stall : Can't shield when rest of stage volunterly died

[orchid marlin]

I'm borrowing sutr, is there a ranged pure dmg op that can reach here?

[gentle finch]

idk

[glass monolith]

Just look on all this god damn ground here

[gentle finch]

only ranged true dmg is Amiya

and someone else probably

[orchid marlin]

Amiya no reach

I can;t stall since she just puts bombs on anyone close to her

[gentle finch]

can u handle the mobs besides the boss with ur current ops

[orchid marlin]

yea if she doesn't wreck my team

[gentle finch]

I heard kal is pretty good for boss

ntrk too

[orchid marlin]

I can try kal, who is ntrk?

[gentle finch]

Nearl the radiant knight

[orchid marlin]

kk let me have a go 💀 💀

[scarlet ledge]

@glass monolith @scarlet fulcrum @turbid badge real

[glass monolith]

So i am not only one who said "Screw it, Eunectes go"

[scarlet fulcrum]

premium melansa interesting skill choice

[scarlet ledge]

s1 eune with aspd 30- on mr nothing

[glass monolith]

Well everyone based in their own way

I used S3 Eunectes in this event

[scarlet fulcrum]

I often use premium melansa s1 eun when lazy tbh

[glass monolith]

It was fun seeing High Priest just 3 tap this stupid 5 hit elite

[scarlet ledge]

my euje is m9

so i just go with s1

[glass monolith]

M0

[turbid badge]

m0

[glass monolith]

I am too focused on E2ing my shit to start masteries

Just recently M6 my Stainless. 3-1-2 because i am idiot

[turbid badge]

lmao

i hate units that all skills are good

make me broke

[gentle finch]

fr

got Pozy and kal but I'm broke

[pallid veldt]

got no one but im not broke

[gentle finch]

truly unfortunate

at least my acc isn't shit for is3 anymore

[pallid veldt]

my acc is pretty shit for IS3

ngl

its so fucking hard to do skalter

[gentle finch]

do you have mlynar

[pallid veldt]

no

[gentle finch]

same

do you have horn

[pallid veldt]

yeah

[gentle finch]

ah

[pallid veldt]

i dont have pozy though

[gentle finch]

I don't

I borrow her every run

[pallid veldt]

pozy is a lot better than horn in IS3 tbh

horn shines on the

f3 boss stages

and highmore

she also does pretty good on um

whats it called

precarious defense

[gentle finch]

mhm

[pallid veldt]

pozy is just great everywhere though

typewriter just not caring is too good

[gentle finch]

I haven't played around with Pozy much

[pallid veldt]

i run pozy start now

its pretty good

you can clear every f1 stage

[gentle finch]

interesante

[pallid veldt]

and most f2s

[gentle finch]

ive been pretty lazy with is3

hard to find motivation to grind it when the level cap is low still

[pallid veldt]

my gnosis s2m3 cookin:

[gentle finch]

👀

what is he cooking

[pallid veldt]

hes cookin d15 knight

trust

(i will die to the f3 boss)

[gentle finch]

chilling

[gentle finch]

☹️

I heard kal is nice for knight when you setup the stall

on d15

[pallid veldt]

hmm

i never heard about that

i think its just gnosis pozy chalter pretty much

for the one i am doing

[gentle finch]

I see

[pallid veldt]

and also

cc duration relics are important

and shawl would be nice too pepela

[turbid badge]

funny knight pushing

[scarlet ledge]

@turbid badge ok i ifnd s3 fsrt tile on ex 8

imma do it later

[orchid marlin]

@gentle finch @glass monolith I did it! Kal stall, heal, KILL

tyty

[clever kernel]

what the

tsuki use? amazing good job

[orchid marlin]

oh yea sometimes she is impactful but this one was more like moral support, this was all Mother of Ri

maybe she saved monster? idk

[unique crow]

Can y’all help with fc ex 8?

Trying kyo and ecko’s methods didn’t help

My operators

[craggy turret]

FC-EX-8? Here are my ops

[unique crow]

I tried kyo and ecko and they didn’t work

Defenders die earlier

now looking at strats on bilibili

[turbid badge]

lmao i used her in ex 7 cm

[ancient hearth]

FX EX 8 normal and CM is just finding a way to stall the boss until the kill you rest of the map

[unique crow]

the prob is fx ex 8 have another mini boss

[ancient hearth]

you kill him before he gets to yout stall point

[unique crow]

it is manageable in fc-8

[pallid veldt]

mountaon solo left side

stall boss with hoshi

heal with NG and uhh

like ptilo and honey

oh lumen too probably

use mlynar and gavial to hold lane and chip boss prob

shouldnt be too difficult

[ancient hearth]

This is what I ended up using. Surtr or other helidrops to stall the miniboss in horn range

Shamare and skalter seaborn to kal's pet alive

[turbid badge]

that miniboss is so weak

lol

[pallid veldt]

[unique crow]

I don’t have shamare

Or Kaltsit

[ancient hearth]

then stal hard with a defender

[pallid veldt]

tbh just borrow a hoshi

or something

[turbid badge]

use someone with high hp

lol

u really just need someone that can tank her disarm

[pallid veldt]

doesnt really look like he has anyone that fits that criteria

[turbid badge]

and her p2 autos

[pallid veldt]

he has penance but penance will die pretty quickly

[turbid badge]

ah true

[pallid veldt]

uhhh gamiya with 3 healers trust

JT8-3 v2

[mental brook]

tips on clearing the normal fc-3? around half my operators are e1 lvl 20 but i keep getting ganked anyways (feels like a skill issue tbh)

[turbid badge]

i used glaadia to tank in normal ex lol

[turbid badge]

fr 30 dr

[ancient hearth]

borrow hoshi or nian, anybody with a big hp pool really

[turbid badge]

uhhh

wouldnt shining tjere judt get disarm

and get zapped

lol

[ancient hearth]

not if you extinguish the fire; bait with nightingale cage until that happens

[sly drift]

She's there for moral support

[turbid badge]

wait who deals with the hoverboard, just texas?

dam

[pallid veldt]

yeah just texas

[ancient hearth]

whatever he has

[pallid veldt]

they arent tanky at all

so

[ancient hearth]

you just need to prevent the miniboss from getting close and reigniting everything

[turbid badge]

hoshi skalter ng should tank yea

[pallid veldt]

yeah i think hoshi skalter ng is what i did

[ancient hearth]

shining's tile is camo'd after the fire extinguishes, so it's a safe tile as long as you keep the miniboss away from it

[unique crow]

I just saw a fc ex 8 Ling strat on bilibili

[turbid badge]

fair

ling is ling fr

[ancient hearth]

the easy strats are basically you either have kal duel the boss, or stall with hoshi; ling is well, what she is

[surreal star]

Is this fine for ex-8

[turbid badge]

ehhh

sure

[ancient hearth]

maybe

[surreal star]

cool

[turbid badge]

just get ur placements correct

[ancient hearth]

idk, healing looks weak

[turbid badge]

and win

[surreal star]

i might swap mostima for ng

i'll play around first

[turbid badge]

oh wait disgusting

mostima w/o module

[surreal star]

yeah i did e2 today

[ancient hearth]

yeah, I'm assuming you're going to have blemi stall the boss

[surreal star]

maybe i should czerny stall instead

[turbid badge]

wtf gaming

czerny tank

[ancient hearth]

That’s gonna be one long ass stall through the barrier.

[turbid badge]

eh who cares they have texas

[ancient hearth]

Does S3 do anything to the boss?

And I’m assuming S3 due to the hoverboards

[gentle finch]

good job

ex-8 has mini boss as well?

[orchid marlin]

😁 kinda, the little knight; texas alt can almost solo it

[turbid badge]

eh the boss isnt that strong other than a big shield tho u prob do want to use phys rather than res

either way when theres no more hoverboards u can go spam on her against eblana

[main halo]

These CMs are very friendly on low rarity team

[last mist]

Reedic redep feels like eternity

[main halo]

How the hell did she die?

[last mist]

She didnt i just did retreat her so she could kill the 2 big mobs on right

High asf def and reedic was the only arts dealer i brought

[main halo]

[last mist]

But hey it worked +1 OP

[steep tartan]

um where do i ask to borrow a hoshi?

[ancient hearth]

just spam the support, hoshi is a relativley popular support unit

[vestal ocean]

what skill for horn did u bring?

[ancient hearth]

S3M3

also, I obvoiusly brought other ground ops to put out the fires
I retreat them after the right side is extinguished then I put down horn, and burst down the miniboss at C9 with a helidrop (surtr or NTRK, whatever works tbh)

my ptilopsis is E2 and Shamare is S2M3 though, so my cursed doll uptime was very high

the cool part is that shamare doll and skadi seaborn can put out fires, so you can actually start putting snipers D10 and C10 if you extinguish those tiles with the adds

apparently trapmaster traps can do the same thing to ground tiles

[grim elk]

I know I have a bunch of purchase certificates available to get if I do the annihilation simulation missions for their first-clear rewards, but I have trouble with annihilation. Send help. Also, know that I am in pain.

[gentle finch]

if you lost by one enemy you should already know what to do, no?

[grim elk]

I think?

[orchid marlin]

[grim elk]

I am not confident in my own thinking ability.

I felt like I would be better off asking here because I know myself and I would waste a whole lot of sanity that I can't afford to waste rn

[orchid marlin]

hard quit and retry no sanity lost

[grim elk]

I wasted 24 sanity for nothing

Knowledge difference

😔

[orchid marlin]

that 24 sanity could of been my bagpipe

[grim elk]

I don't get how stamina turns into op

joke is lost

[orchid marlin]

since the bagpipe banner expired I can't headhunt anymore, 24 sanity equals about 2 origin ingot for first time clear

[grim elk]

Honestly, should I be going for annihilation sim clears during an event? I feel like it's a waste. I'm doing these to get enough purchase certs to get a Wandering medic since Chestnut didn't show up during my reroll spree, but is there any clears of FC-EX-7 Challenge without a Wandering medic?

[gentle finch]

people used wandering medics for ex-7?

[grim elk]

wait

nevermind, I found one

in #media-content

[gentle finch]

I just laneheld top and bottom lanes with Gavialter and Pallas respectively (Mizuki on bottom lane as well to assist)
once the dudes on top lane started moving I used dusk S3 to stall them
Irene killed the mini boss
I also had skalter on a top ranged tile healing gavialter
lastly I had nightingale use her S3 near the ending

[grim elk]

but also FC-EX-8 doesn't have a lot of low end clears

My box is basically empty

[gentle finch]

I should try ex-8

I haven't attempted it yet

[orchid marlin]

I'm close just need to wait for practice drills to refresh; sometimes tho i'm so stubborn I brick through it with sanity then regret later

like when you are sooo damn close

[gentle finch]

yeah purposefully refreshing to do ex stages is a waste

[south bone]

I never used them in this event

used other medics tho

[frigid kite]

Hello Mr.Pros

who's in need of help

[turbid badge]

water theres medal

ex 8

[turbid badge]

i got it

[tidal sedge]

I did cause of their range

[gentle finch]

ik

i cleared but didn't trim

I will trim and cm tomorrow

map was unexpectedly easy

[turbid badge]

ikkr

seaborn and dorothy op

for fire

[ocean bear]

damnnn

her shield is rlly annoying

u gonna use true damages to kill her

or hold her in line for a longgg timee

[gentle finch]

originally i didn't read trim condition and I thought it was something about the mire

wasted sanity...

[turbid badge]

loll

[scarlet ledge]

pro

[glass monolith]

I didn't read trim condition. I jsut came in with plan to extinguish as much as i can

[soft crystal]

If it reignites it still does count right

[formal phoenix]

Does anyone have Quartz ?

I need to borrow her

[turbid badge]

Maxed?

[formal phoenix]

Lv40 is fine

[turbid badge]

…?

e0 or e2

[scarlet ledge]

need fires to removed to be counted

[formal phoenix]

E2

[turbid badge]

wait why would anyone want to be borrow e0

ahdamn mine still e1

[glass monolith]

Wait, wasn't condition is how much reed is not burning?

[scarlet ledge]

i have e2 quartz but

its on jp

👍

[turbid badge]

yea

6 unigniyed

unignited

trim

[formal phoenix]

How many HP does your Quartz E1 have ?

[wary wing]

medal counts amount of not-ignited reeds at stage end

process doesn't matter

[south bone]

Quartz E1 max has around 4k hp iirc

I have one

[wary wing]

modded skadi has 6K hp

[formal phoenix]

Can I borrow it ?

[south bone]

For EX-8?

[formal phoenix]

For EX CM 8

Yes

[south bone]

wait can E1 quartz handle the stage?

[formal phoenix]

Just lemme demonstrate

Can I borrow it ?

[glass monolith]

Wait.... I just did quick math

QUARTZ CAN FACE TANK CHAPTER 11 BOSS WITH STAINLESS S3 36% PHYSICAL DAMAGE REDUCTION

[formal phoenix]

Fk it man

You ruined my plan

[glass monolith]

Or to be exact she can survive 8100 damage punch in face, you will probably need Surtr hospital to heal back

[formal phoenix]

Anyway

The plan is simple

Leader deals Art dmg, and ignore 20 RES with Mark Ignite

So doesnt matter shit if your RES is high or your def is 0

You only need HP

After you survive the burst, your healer can easy outheal Leader dmg (assume she is on the mire)

With that

You can stall her until all the trash mob are death

And bait her Mark with Gravel Yato or any fast redeploy

[formal phoenix]

In phase 2

And than oonga boonga with your Surtr NTR or Mlynar

[formal phoenix]

And yeah, assume you dont have Nightingale as well

So basically

It is possible with fully 4* squad

To clear this shit

It just

VERY LONG

[tidal sedge]

Hoshi + NG + Mullberry to stall Eblana...

But who damaging Eblana? Omertosa? Eyja?

Anyone to add for this FC 8 Squad

Victorian Vanguard Trio and Berry Duo is irreplacable, no... No Myrtles allowed...

[formal phoenix]

Wait, why no Myrtle ?

[tidal sedge]

Me want Saileach over Myrtle, no compromise

[formal phoenix]

Understanable

[tidal sedge]

Else than that, anyone to add

[peak canyon]

get rid of mylnar n borrow shamare instead

[tidal sedge]

Why?

[formal phoenix]

Or NTR

Or Kalsy

[tidal sedge]

Mlynar can help me deal damage to the annoying big sword guys

[peak canyon]

drop doll before her bomb n she will deal no dmg

mountain can handle left side

[tidal sedge]

Have, and able to use 1 slot for her

There are 3 to add

[tidal sedge]

ok...

[peak canyon]

shamare doll can help left side too, it’s almost like global skill of atk n def reduction is good or something
over relying on power house n neglect stat altering supporters

[formal phoenix]

It kinda insane how Mountain can (almost) solo left side

[peak canyon]

fc8 he can, fcex8 he almost can

[gritty eagle]

which way does she go

[glass monolith]

Wait 2 minute, go straight down, go into blue ladder, exit blue ladder on left and go over top path into left box

She is only one taking that top left, everyone else will go down then blue box

[tidal sedge]

Hmmm... Oh okay...

[tidal sedge]

Mountain is enough but Mountain + Blaze make everything comfy

[gritty eagle]

oh thanks

well

ill justb orrow a kal and mlynar it ig

[sly drift]

I legit thought she is going straight from spawn to top left lmao.

Didn't really pay attention

[tidal sedge]

Can flamecaller captains be silenced?

[thorny cypress]

no

[tidal sedge]

sucks

[glass monolith]

Good news Pozy alone S2 can kill them in 2 casts if you bothered to add any mastery to it
