strategy

[gleaming lodge]

But I'm not confident I can explain properly (or that I have the correct explanation)

[ember warren]

well operators and enemies target based on hatred level

the formula for enemy hatred level is 1000*taunt_level - distance_to_exit

not sure how this works for blocked enemies

u might be able to extrapolate this information

[gleaming lodge]

It doesn't

[ember warren]

into blocked

[gleaming lodge]

Blockers attack in blocked order

First enemy to get blocked gets attacked first

[ember warren]

r u sure its not cuz of how they are positioned?

like u block 2 from the front

[gleaming lodge]

Except Blitz who has ranged op targeting and can change target

[ember warren]

and then push 1 in from the back

[gleaming lodge]

Nah I'm sure

[ember warren]

ok

[gleaming lodge]

You can test this with slugs on 1-7 if you want

Drop a 2-blocker

[ember warren]

blocking priority after sleep might follow id

[gleaming lodge]

Wait my bad

That doesn't test priority

[ember warren]

however, if the weight is the same (might happen because of limitation of floating point variables), the operator will choose to attack the target with the smallest fragmented id (usually means the enemy that spawns the latest)

[gleaming lodge]

But ranged ops sometimes target something else than blockers

In any case

[ember warren]

u can check if that works for blocking order

they block the latest spawned enemy first

[gleaming lodge]

If you block an enemy in range of blem, but blem is already blocking, she will hit the one blocked by her, always

[ember warren]

even if its closer to box?

[gleaming lodge]

Yes

Always

[ember warren]

so she retains her targeting

[gleaming lodge]

I've never seen this fail

[ember warren]

from blocking

[gleaming lodge]

Except for Blitz

(not Liskarm, only Blitz)

[ember warren]

does her targeting change after sleep?

[gleaming lodge]

Although I believe Blitz still attacks the enemies blocked by himself first

[gleaming lodge]

Yes
During S2 Blem targets like a ranged op

[ember warren]

I mean after s2

so during s2 blem will first attack the original enemy then swap to ranged targeting

is that right?

[gleaming lodge]

After it can change yes

Because attack prio on blocked enemies is block order
And block order depends on distance to the center of the blocker (aka, the tile you deployed them on)

And since the 2nd blocked enemy might clip deeper into Blem , it can get blocked first after S2

[cursive mango]

attempted watery tidehollow but got 395 instead of 400 ;-;

[ember warren]

ah ok

[gleaming lodge]

Anyways

I want to summarize this

But I haven't found the time yet

I believe that as a defknights player, I should be the reference for how blocking works

[cursive mango]

my situation regarding arts users is very limited but lin is a situational caster, so is it like, investment time, or do I try to hold off?

[gleaming lodge]

Lin is ok-ish

She needs a lot to work

[cursive mango]

better than amiya?

[gleaming lodge]

Huh

You probably want to invest into Amyia and Steward if you don't have any E2s

[cursive mango]

[gleaming lodge]

Max Steward out, it's pretty cheap

You can raise Lin I guess

But she kinds of need module to work from what I understand

However I'm no caster expert

[cursive mango]

ill gather the mats and see what the next banner is

[gleaming lodge]

Next banner is Yato

[cyan gorge]

Steward and Click will fulfill all your caster needs for now

[gleaming lodge]

Realistically you should never pull on standard banners

[cursive mango]

limiteds back-to-back?!

[gleaming lodge]

Yes...

[cursive mango]

yeah ill raise click now

[cyan gorge]

Ifrit and Lin are good too but far more situational and map dependent

[gleaming lodge]

Well, we get Ling event rerun before

Ifrit fell off ngl

[cyan gorge]

Until there’s an Ifrit lane

[cursive mango]

ifrit has carried me through a few maps ngl

[grand ginkgo]

wait so after this event?

[cursive mango]

click is E2 lvl 20 now

[cyan gorge]

Click, Amiya, Ifrit were all the casters I needed for a long time

[cursive mango]

@grand ginkgo how you getting ons with anni

[grand ginkgo]

no progress was busy

[cursive mango]

im going to attempt a new anni

[grand ginkgo]

new anni should be very simple

or you mean without borrow

[cursive mango]

with borrow

[grand ginkgo]

yeah its simple then

[cursive mango]

just looking to clear as much as I can really

[grand ginkgo]

laneholder or arts guard bottom, 4 defenders, couple mages

2 healers

[cursive mango]

its county hillock im doing if thats the one

[grand ginkgo]

new anni is the one that has robots

[cursive mango]

ooo I did that one

just barely I think

yeah I did that two days ago

tbh I should probably focus on clearing some story maps, since im not up to date yet

[grand ginkgo]

spend sanity on event, no?

[cursive mango]

ive basically cleaned it out already

xd

once the extra stages appear, the extra event stuff from those will get most of the remaining stuff

basically I've got from 6-10 to current date to clear ;-;

[shut siren]

can someone help me with 7-16 please?

[glass monolith]

which part get you killed

[tidal sedge]

What the problem?

[shut siren]

i get domed from the missile guys

[glass monolith]

Targets last deployed in range, problem solved

[tidal sedge]

Deployment order

[shut siren]

...i still get domed

😭

[glass monolith]

Spawn camp them with Gummy

[shut siren]

wdym?

[glass monolith]

7-16 is patriot map or i am ahead of it?

[shut siren]

idk

whats patriot

[glass monolith]

If killing them in front of their red boxes is not an option have Nearl/Saria/Cuora or whatever else can just heal from being physically assaulted

[shut siren]

u cant place anyone near them

oh wait

yeah

i can try that sorry im dumb

[glass monolith]

Damn almost every boss in this game is sleep immune, not fun

[shut siren]

ok i gave up and just used my ling 💀

[cursive mango]

phew I managed to do the rest of world 6

[cyan gorge]

Spawncamp top with Horn, borrow if needed

[glass monolith]

Tutorial finished

[shut siren]

i did it ty tho

[glass monolith]

Shamare need to exist for her doll to stay or she can be recalled after throwing doll at enemy?

[cyan gorge]

The doll goes when she goes

Like all summons

[glass monolith]

Aw, boomer

[hoary vessel]

Hello! Does anyone have any advice for dealing with the Ringleaders in WB-6? I'm considering trying Tsukinogi's S1 to clear their stealth but I'm not sure if I have any better options for them: https://krooster.com/u/T

[glass monolith]

[scarlet fulcrum]

Just wait them in bottom, trigger their first hit with frd or smt. U also have mud

They will walk 1 by one

[hoary vessel]

Ah she does sound like a good idea! And @glass monolith I didn't even realize he could attack stealthed enemies, thanks!

Totter + Mudrock was a winning combo! Thanks!

[cursive mango]

didnt know you get yellow certs by getting the amiya extras

[glass monolith]

Oh, Amiya counts as recruit in story? It is one of those things which are done so long ago I forgot

[cursive mango]

ye I got 5 for doing world 6

[surreal star]

isn’t it just tokens

and not recruit

[cursive mango]

if I do the last pot, it puts me on 133/180 for the next shoperator

[scarlet fulcrum]

Its recruit, tokens has different icon

So yea free certs

[cursive mango]

dont know how ill find 47 yellow certs in two weeks tho

[scarlet fulcrum]

just pray in recruit

i got 4 summons tag in 2 days

[cursive mango]

ive been praying and only got 4 fast redeploys in the last week

no summons ;-;

oh I did get mayer yesterday on a random tag

[scarlet fulcrum]

Don't mind me im just little lucky this week

[cursive mango]

[scarlet fulcrum]

Oh also first ever tsukinogi from supporter+survival, perma acc dmg

[glass monolith]

Perma recruitment damage will happen if they add Deepcolor into it

[cosmic thicket]

i'm pretty sure it's a net increase in gold certs because of how much more common 4* tags are vs 5* tags

like i've gotten more than 5x more cutters than firewatches ever since cutter was added to recruitment (and 0 firewatches before she was added)

[glass monolith]

People tell recruit selects rarity at start, so if you have 4* luck you see 4* tags. My issue is than on CN all 5* recruits are 2 or 3 tags already except summon tag

How many Sniper + Survival i missed? How many times i will ignore AoE + DPS?

[cosmic thicket]

wait who's aoe dps

[cosmic thicket]

WTF

[cursive mango]

yay to me missing tags

[opal kiln]

not on en yet

[glass monolith]

CN only, but it will be on global eventually

[cosmic thicket]

ah

ok that's actually hella obscure

[glass monolith]

Okay, AoE is best tag on CN confirmed

[cosmic thicket]

wtf

guard defense too right

[signal lichen]

[gleaming lodge]

Beeswas the GOAT

[cursive mango]

at what point should I consider bring elyisum instead of myrtle as flagbearer?

[pallid veldt]

is this a situation where you have myrtle already raised

and just got ely

[glass monolith]

Are there enemy to reveal? Are your team 11 snipers? Do you want to M3 5*?

[cursive mango]

got myrtle already raised and ely at E1 lvl 30

[pallid veldt]

id just run myrtle for now

tbh

but ely is definitely a good raise

just depends on what other options you have

[cursive mango]

basically got all three flagbearers

[sour mantle]

It depends.
Myrtle has faster first skill activation if you need DP faster, or healing other vanguards for whatever reason (with talent not S2).
Ely is better with Snipers, more DP gen in the long term, need to reveal/debuff enemies

[pallid veldt]

do you have any dps options

that arent e2d yet

just depends on your e2 priorities

also reasonably sure ely only makes more dp gen in the long term with s1m3 but not 100%

[cursive mango]

only dps vanguard I have is vigna at E2

[pallid veldt]

not VG

just dps in general

u have a krooster or smth

like the website

[cursive mango]

i can do that now

been meaning to

[pallid veldt]

just add ur 5* and 6* tbh

[cursive mango]

[glass monolith]

Me with 160 of 5-6 combined

[pallid veldt]

wow

you are so cool

i wish i could be like you when i grow up

[glass monolith]

Owned, only 1/3rd of them e2d

[scarlet fulcrum]

That was so direct ngl

[glass monolith]

After 1.5 years of suffering i am only 1/3rd to e2 entire owned roster

[pallid veldt]

[cursive mango]

how do I link the krooster?

[pallid veldt]

just copy paste the link

of your profile

[cursive mango]

https://krooster.com/u/LittleLucy

[pallid veldt]

what level is your myrtle

you mentioned u raised myrtle

[cursive mango]

E2 lvl 20

[pallid veldt]

alr nice

i think masteries are more important than e2ing ely for you

you have a lot of really good ops at e2 that get a lot better with masteries

texas s3m3 surtr s3m3 reedic s2m3 kal exu penance lapp etc

id get those masteries going before raising anybody new

youll probably be occupied with that for quite a bit

[cursive mango]

if you refresh you should be able to see everything now

just did it because it was quite fast

[cursive mango]

which kal/exu skills are they?

[pallid veldt]

s3 on both

[cursive mango]

thanki

oo actually one more thing, how do I get a level 3 mastery place with 252 base?

[pallid veldt]

downgrade something on left side or dorm

[cursive mango]

wouldnt that harm xp and money? since I dont have a provisio ;-;

[pallid veldt]

you kind of have to

otherwise youll never be able to m3

downgrade a factory or something

are your power plants all max level

[cursive mango]

yep yep

oh yikes, you can never downgrade the training room

is there a time where you'd go for S3M2 for reed alt instead of S2?

[tropic valve]

LS-4 slug showcase

[cursive mango]

we slug murderising

[flat sapphire]

Arts fragility and atk down

[cursive mango]

honestly I think reedalt is tied to be my favourite op with perfumer

[scarlet fulcrum]

when u see crowded enemies. Shes pretty much brainded anni3 with s3

For example

[cursive mango]

ye, I like big explosions, that anni was great for that

[gray oak]

She's a deployable lagspike in SSS against that flower boss

[cursive mango]

is this a good prioity list in order?

its like a weeks worth of training

[gray oak]

Max myrtle first

Fia can be dead last

Others don't really matter I guess

[foggy grove]

Leave myrtle last

[gray oak]

Why

[signal lichen]

why would u leave myrtle last

ever

[foggy grove]

Why would you not

[gray oak]

Myrtle is probably THE most important unit in the game

[pallid veldt]

god this chat makes me wanna kms

[foggy grove]

That texas surtr need mastery more

[gray oak]

My man this person is probably asking this for general content

[cursive mango]

im like 4 months into the game

[signal lichen]

whats this persons highest stage cleared?

[gray oak]

It doesn't matter how much more dmg tex/surtr can do, they'll delete everything anyway

[viscid mist]

why are you e2ing fia if you're not doing her masteries

Just drop the e2 prio

[signal lichen]

another good question

[viscid mist]

it's also really weird how you do a bunch of m1's

then m2

it's better to complete a m3 cycle instead of going on like this

[cursive mango]

oh is it?

[viscid mist]

you will take longer to achieve individual skill powerspikes

[viscid mist]

yes

you generally master a skill because of great gains

and m3 is normally the best mastery (not always true)

Just going through scraps will make it take more time for your squad to turn stronger and it makes harder to commit

[cursive mango]

this be better then?

[viscid mist]

This looks fine

[cursive mango]

[gray oak]

Why do yall do myrtle like that man

[foggy grove]

looks good

[viscid mist]

She's hardly relevant enough to master above something with real impact like texas and surtr

[cursive mango]

this means I gotta find the blue cubey thing first

gotta get 7 more of those

[gray oak]

She's also cheapest, AND gets all od your units deployed faster

She's a more universal buff

[viscid mist]

general stages don't even need dp surge

you're really huffing on copium

It's a little more dp efficiency

[gray oak]

General content also doesn't need m3 surtr + texas

[viscid mist]

over actual good upgrades

I'm sure it makes clearing stages easier

than myrtle s1m3

😇

-3 dp cost, +3 initial sp

for a first cycle 6 seconds faster

that don't really matter because those stages don't rush you

[foggy grove]

wao so broken /s

[viscid mist]

you get the same dp ammount

[gray oak]

I'd still go for myrtle and then spam texas with my dp printer, but do as you guys do I guess

Kill the boss 1 tick faster

[pallid veldt]

me when my myrtle is not m3 so i cannot get any dp and cannot spam texas

its gnover

[cursive mango]

[quick pecan]

me when my myrtle is e0

guess i’ll uninstall

[cursive mango]

howd i get more blue cubes guys

[viscid mist]

i don't know what bosses you're fighting

that texas would kill in one cycle

this woman don't deal nearly as much damage as you're assuming brother

[signal lichen]

hes on crownslayer

[viscid mist]

you can get them in IS

🧐

[cursive mango]

in IS?

[gray oak]

Integrated strategies

[cursive mango]

ive barely touched it

[viscid mist]

yes integrated strategies

you can get resources as level up rewards

it's a bit grindy but it's worthwhile

you can borrow some strong support unit like ling, pozemka or gavial the invincible and easily get at least to floor 3 to farm exp

you have good units so clearing IS shouldn't be hard

[gray oak]

IS2?

[viscid mist]

IS3 low diff is very easy too

[pallid veldt]

both are fine with their team

[cursive mango]

id need level 53 to get more blue cubes on IS3 ;-;

[ebon elk]

IS3 is easier than IS2 for sure.

[gentle finch]

wait really?

Wow...

[pallid veldt]

yes!!!!!!!

[gleaming lodge]

Are we actually saying "Myrtle S1M3 is top prio" ?
What's top prio is having a use for that DP
Ain't no way you'll drom Myrtle to make Melantha arrive faster

[gray oak]

How else are you gonna have a mudrock on the field in 0.003 seconds

[ebon elk]

Myrtle is the most powerful vanguard for the whole reason vanguards exist.

[gentle finch]

I have way too many blue cubes

[signal lichen]

not saying myrtle is number 1 priority

[viscid mist]

oh you want polymerized gel?

[signal lichen]

i just woulden't do her dead last

[viscid mist]

🧐

[signal lichen]

depends on what i have tho

[gleaming lodge]

You should

[gentle finch]

my myrtle is M1

[signal lichen]

and how far i am

[gleaming lodge]

Just like how you should do buffers last

[ebon elk]

Myrtle should not be a first E2 probably, better to E2 something that has an effect on the battle.

[signal lichen]

i agree with buffers last

[gray oak]

The idea I had was "this person doesn't need gigaton damage, so myrtle is a good universal account booster"

[gleaming lodge]

Myrtle is without a doubt the least relevant "good" unit
Get over it

[ebon elk]

Once you start Masteries Myrtle gets higher priority

[cursive mango]

yeah

[gentle finch]

Also am I the only person who finished masteries all the way if I started them
Unless it's a breakpoint like Ifrit S2

I just can't have multiple guys on M1

[pallid veldt]

wdym

breakpoints are only breakpoints for poor people

you either m0 or you m3

[gentle finch]

I was poor

at the time

[pallid veldt]

real

[gentle finch]

and now I don't use Ifrit

[pallid veldt]

dude

exactly the same

[viscid mist]

well not much you can do outside IS
You could farm gel on regular stages but it's not worth going over the event

[pallid veldt]

ive m3d all my m1s other than ifrit

[gleaming lodge]

Almost as if Ifrit fell off

[pallid veldt]

and now ifrit is shit so

shes just gonna stay at m1 forever

[gentle finch]

lmao

[pallid veldt]

[gentle finch]

my mudrock S2 is s7

[pallid veldt]

wtf

[gentle finch]

sl7

[pallid veldt]

dies of cringe

[viscid mist]

It will also take a bit for gel farm stages

[gleaming lodge]

As she should

[gentle finch]

I've used it a grand total of once

[pallid veldt]

m6 or bust

[gentle finch]

for H8-1

[gray oak]

Lmao no 30000 dps = shit

[gleaming lodge]

The real Mud skill is S3

[pallid veldt]

agree

[gentle finch]

I only use S3

[gleaming lodge]

[gentle finch]

it's fun

[gray oak]

Ifrit has both percentage and flat res reduction

[pallid veldt]

wow really?

[gleaming lodge]

Yeah

And it's not relevant

[pallid veldt]

she must be super good then

[cursive mango]

fudgesticks

[gentle finch]

rma AND devices

nutty

[gray oak]

Yes drop all your orundum and m9 ifrit

[gleaming lodge]

Because every decent arts dealer now has their own RES shred

[gray oak]

Now

[pallid veldt]

real and true

[gentle finch]

speaking of eyja

mine is M2

[pallid veldt]

bnuuy

[gentle finch]

I did on purpose because I hate her

[viscid mist]

why god must put RMA and device on a rerun event

[gray oak]

F l a t

[viscid mist]

There's not enough time to farm

[gleaming lodge]

Who tf uses arts anyways ?

[gleaming lodge]

Ok and ?

[gentle finch]

LOL

true

[gleaming lodge]

Doesn't matter, she isn't worth it for debuff anymore

1+1 > 2 moment

[gray oak]

That was not the argument though?

[pallid veldt]

ur argument is that

ifrit gives both flat and % res shred

and most good arts dealers only do flat

therefore ifrit has usage

[gray oak]

There being "better" units doesn't make other units shit

[cursive mango]

we get free 6*?!

[gleaming lodge]

RES debuff is irrelevant.

[coarse rivet]

So I'm on 2-10 and I honestly don't have a clue/strategy to defeat this stage. May I have someone help me out?

[pallid veldt]

hesper

u think phantom is not shit

even though texas and yato are better?

[quick pecan]

chat trying to shit talk ifrit again

[signal lichen]

imagine trying to use phantom s2 now a days

[pallid veldt]

we arent purposely trying to shit talk her

[gleaming lodge]

make sure Skullshaterer (SS) is doing ranged attacks on a single target
use arts damage on the left side of the map, physical on the right
supposedly you only need one operator on the healing tile to take care of those AoE casters

[pallid veldt]

this is just our viewpoint

on ifrit

soldier

[solid dew]

quad D
(what was the point of that lmao)
((why is this a reply tf)

[quick pecan]

well not necessarily just saying right now i hear people in this server go back and forth about arts being dead bc res kills them then others going res shredders won’t do anything like what is the truth

[pallid veldt]

i would say

for players with built rosters

[gleaming lodge]

Ok
Gotta sleep
You all handle 2-10
Goodnight

[pallid veldt]

aka meta options in both phys and arts

phys is the far superior option in the meta as of now

[cursive mango]

I say I am a ifrit enjoyer

[gray oak]

It's a cesspool in here, just think for yourself and play however you want

[coarse rivet]

Alright, I'll see what I can do.

[pallid veldt]

gn squid

[gleaming lodge]

Nah I meant that as "the other mfs should help you" 💀

[solid dew]

can you send a photo of your squd so we can see what you have/need

[gentle finch]

gnite

[solid dew]

bro's bailing
gn

[gentle finch]

Shikikikiki

[quick pecan]

i mean ya makes sense when mlynar just schwing schwing the whole map away

[gentle finch]

I like you

[coarse rivet]

I can send what Operators I have.

[pallid veldt]

its also definitely different depending on what stage of the game you're at

[cursive mango]

you have chungy wungy woah

[pallid veldt]

but yeah

[gentle finch]

ohman

[coarse rivet]

Flattery, appropriated.

[solid dew]

hoshi should be more then able to tank skullshatterer assuming yo have good enough medics

[cursive mango]

chungy wungy should be able to do it no?

[quick pecan]

ifrit felt very nice for that one chapter that said "fuck your arts damage" i still used s2 and went about my day but yeah phys better there for instance

[gentle finch]

next time sort by levels

[coarse rivet]

Mulberry E1, probably the best Medic I have.

[gentle finch]

but this is ok

[pallid veldt]

squid is a very experienced nicheknights player

[coarse rivet]

Alright.

[pallid veldt]

most of his beliefs are probably reasonably late-game oriented

like

arts is fine

[cursive mango]

^ me a ifrit enjoyer

[pallid veldt]

but once u get more ops

[solid dew]

that and maybe gavial should be good, but youll need arts to take care of the defenders, and then some form of AA for the defense drones

[pallid veldt]

u realize that phys ops are better and the good arts ops dont have any problem shelling out stupid amounts of damage by themselves

[gentle finch]

lava and steward unbuilt

[pallid veldt]

so it just kinda eliminates the need for ifrit

[coarse rivet]

Let me load in a few screenshots real quick.

[solid dew]

[cursive mango]

woah you need to build lava ;-;

lava the best

[quick pecan]

i would say i have a reasonably built account of 6*s but i get lazy sometimes and just horn s1 ifrit s2 shit when i’m tired after work and can’t be bothered

[pallid veldt]

eh

as much as people in help lose their shit when people say this

in all honesty ifrits range is annoying

[gentle finch]

arts source in general

he needs

[pallid veldt]

like instead of coping stupid 1 tile ifrit id rather just use like

an op that can hit more than

1 tile idk

[solid dew]

mhm, amiya wont be able to do it all

[gentle finch]

early game loves arts

[solid dew]

not to mention you wont have enough phys to kill the defenders at that point

[gentle finch]

but if he's borrowing

then it won't matter

[quick pecan]

the solution is just creating a choke point or two in the enemy pathing but i mean that becomes kind of null and void when we have ops that murder the enemy before they even get blocked

[pallid veldt]

yeah

[solid dew]

should probably see if they are borrowing tbh

[gentle finch]

in all honesty that guys acc kinda sucks for now

until he gets an E2

[pallid veldt]

like

in most events

i just put mountain on the red box

and watch him punch

he is very cool

[sharp mango]

Real

[solid dew]

mountain moment

[cursive mango]

you needs to levels lava because she the best and also chungy wungy

[gentle finch]

caught in 4k

[pallid veldt]

even in difficult content where enemies have a lot of res

[gray oak]

Can't wait for the next destroy all enemies on the map and move on unit

[pallid veldt]

ifrit still has fallen off

[coarse rivet]

Understood.

[pallid veldt]

just because

again

phys better + good arts ops are fine on their own

but ifrit is definitely valuable for newer players

no question

plus she makes anni very easy

[cursive mango]

can attest, I got ifrit early and she carried me through many levels including annis

[pallid veldt]

yeah

[gentle finch]

better

[pallid veldt]

ifrit shits on annis pretty hard

just bc of the way they are laid out

[gentle finch]

honestly with how your account is I would look to E1 hoshiguma

you don't have any murder units yet

so her tankiness would help

[solid dew]

specter +medic(?) could probably be dps on right, hoshi and arts + medics on left. and AA wherever its needed

[gentle finch]

also melantha for the caster

[coarse rivet]

I think I have more than enough Defence chips to E1 Hoshiguma (I keep forgetting to E1 my Defenders even though I remind myself for the thousandths time)

[cursive mango]

level: perfumer, lava, ansel, chungy, gravel, cuora
if you do those you'll be in a better position for future maps too

[gentle finch]

lol

many stuff can be solved by hoshi + medic + kroos

it's nice

[signal lichen]

perfumer my love

[gentle finch]

not in this order btw

I'd E1 hoshiguma and then get my base slaves online

[coarse rivet]

I usually stick to medics and vanguards, fast deploy and of course, healing.

[cursive mango]

make sure to E2 perfumer first too because perfumer is bae

[coarse rivet]

But I keep forgetting Defenders are one of the important classes for the stages.

[gentle finch]

yea

[coarse rivet]

You simp for that Operator or the Operator is just that good to use?

[signal lichen]

yes

[pallid veldt]

simp

[cursive mango]

I like the operater and I simp for her

perfumer my beloved

[sharp mango]

Simp

[cursive mango]

she carries many maps with global heal too

[gentle finch]

my first E2 was Angelina

[cyan gorge]

Defenders op

[cursive mango]

also allows event clears with units like ling from support

[coarse rivet]

(I mainly simp for maniacs. That includes Sarkaz mercenary W)

[gentle finch]

wow

[pallid veldt]

so

chongyue is not like

a lane holder right

[cursive mango]

chungy wungy

[gentle finch]

ehhh

[coarse rivet]

No clue.

[gentle finch]

if he had self sustain

[cyan gorge]

I hear he is

[cursive mango]

he is budget mountain from what I hear

[gentle finch]

I would call him one

[pallid veldt]

do people like

put a defender behind him

or something

to stop him from leaking

[signal lichen]

u can put one in front

[gentle finch]

idk

[pallid veldt]

cause thats probably what i would do

[coarse rivet]

I just realized what you meant by that is Chongyue. 🪦

[pallid veldt]

if i had chongyue

[gentle finch]

he too squishy

[pallid veldt]

doesnt that just

[cursive mango]

chungy wungy

[pallid veldt]

since he has offensive recovery

wouldnt that just fuck him

over

[signal lichen]

depends ig

[coarse rivet]

(I'm a total f'ing idiot)

[signal lichen]

i am only thinking s3 when i say that

[cursive mango]

ranged guard behind him

[pallid veldt]

yeah

i was also thinking s3

[balmy halo]

chongyue wont really leak if his skill 3 is up

he has like 4 offensive sp cost since his hits r now double strike

[signal lichen]

or mountain + him on s3

but i mean

[gentle finch]

I don't have chongyue but he's fine by himself+Skalter

[pallid veldt]

but like

what if two dogs come at the sametime

[signal lichen]

how many maps do u need that? idk

[pallid veldt]

or smth

pepela

[balmy halo]

his skill hits r also aoe

[balmy halo]

y ah he aint handling shit lel

[gentle finch]

put myrtle behind him

early

🧠

[pallid veldt]

[gentle finch]

not like right behind him

[cursive mango]

no no myrtle solos maps

[gentle finch]

but next to the blue box

in his path

[signal lichen]

this is why we do myrtle first

[cursive mango]

need to get those masteries to be able to solo

[signal lichen]

solos the game

[gentle finch]

so you don't have to undeploy her later

if you want someone behind

[pallid veldt]

yeah

idk

[gentle finch]

chongyue

[pallid veldt]

i dont have him

i was just reading his kit and i was like

this is kinda weirdge

[signal lichen]

it is weird

[gentle finch]

neither do I

I borrowed him for two stages

for test

he died to explosions

[pallid veldt]

pepela

[gentle finch]

from WD exploding mfs

[pallid veldt]

he died of cringe

[gentle finch]

real

anyways

I don't think we actually helped Shiki

with the stage

[coarse rivet]

And here I thought I had enough Defender chips. I think I wasted it on some other Operator. Or I think I forgot to afk farm the Defender chips.

[cursive mango]

[gentle finch]

sadge

[cursive mango]

what are the current ops you are taking into 2-10

[gentle finch]

specter should be sufficiently tanky

I hope

[full finch]

so
how do you clear
WD-5 with garbage units

[gentle finch]

#strategy message

[pallid veldt]

#r-i-i-c

[gentle finch]

what's WD-5

[cursive mango]

witch doctor no. 5

[full finch]

I mean with worse units than that

some E0 no trust kinda thing

[gentle finch]

[sharp mango]

Xolli late game

[coarse rivet]

I usually have two Medics, 3-4 Defenders, 2 Vanguards, 1 Specialist, ? Supporter, 2 Snipers, and I'm f'ed I forget how many class type operators I have into my team.

[gentle finch]

[full finch]

[full finch]

mb

[cursive mango]

seems good, dont really need a supporter in most cases tbh tho

[coarse rivet]

I'm also stuck on that crappy stage.

[full finch]

the issue is that

E0 cuora

[coarse rivet]

Might as well trash my supporters.

[full finch]

dies in like 3 hits

[pallid veldt]

oh

[full finch]

and E0 dps can't clear pylons

[pallid veldt]

[full finch]

also istg JP players have no S2 reeds

wtf

[pallid veldt]

[solid dew]

: clueless :

I have an alt from IS that I never used

[turbid badge]

turtle before myrtle

[gentle finch]

I know I'll skip qiubai so I'll reroll for her

[full finch]

lemme see

[gentle finch]

on an alt

[full finch]

WB-6 has the weird caster right

somehow

[gentle finch]

idr

[full finch]

I'm not sure about this

this is fine

[pallid veldt]

clueless

[gentle finch]

xd

[full finch]

well

lin can tank on ranged tiles

but what do I do about everything else

[sharp mango]

Frd?

[full finch]

[pallid veldt]

xolli is in fact

dying of cringe

[full finch]

mmkay yeah the casters are cracked af

[gentle finch]

hh

mald harder

[full finch]

I can't even kill the 3rd camo sword

how do I kill the casters

[gentle finch]

idk

yeah Lin can't tank arts that well

this is probably where you stop for a bit

would be cool if you got it out tho

I'm gonna go now

[quick pecan]

i just used elysium s2 + pozy 💀

i know definitely overkill

[high crest]

I do in this stage is I let the sword fucker go in to near the blue box tank it with defender and go ham with snipers or casters

And I position my sniper and caster out of the camo sword moving path so they don't get killed

[full finch]

the swords I can probably handle

but the casters

are uh

[high crest]

They are the ones more easier to kill imo

The caster is like two or three you can assassinate them with texalter

[quick pecan]

oh wait i just realized the casters aren’t the invisible ones 💀

en moment

[high crest]

The sword fuckers has the invisibility

[quick pecan]

yeah i had a reading skill issue

[full finch]

ah yes, I will definitely use my texas alter

[high crest]

I thought you are veteran?

[full finch]

new account

[quick pecan]

xolli is just new player

he never been good what u talking about

[full finch]

never been good, that's true

[upbeat plover]

i just started JP guys

[high crest]

[full finch]

hope your reroll doesn't suck

[mossy chasm]

I need some help/advice please

[full finch]

what's leaking

[mossy chasm]

The boss

[full finch]

sandwich him between 2 defenders

since he can only stun one at a time

gav + saria can probably handle the entire top side

[signal lichen]

what are the other 2 enemies leaking tho?

[mossy chasm]

https://imgur.com/a/c4yA9Qa

I think a few leaked after he killed some of my operators

Before I had enough dp to deploy more to cover

[full finch]

so just make sure that corrosion archers aren't doing too much and casters don't break your defenses

and also mlynar should just like

make the boss disappear

[foggy grove]

except when he is stunned

[mossy chasm]

I'm pretty sure he got sniped, things got hectic towards the end

Penance got stunned too and I was counting on her to block that green tunnel exit

[full finch]

not really a good choice to block boss

since he slapp

might use penans to kill corrosion archers since her S3 has taunt on skill

[mossy chasm]

Yeah, I was hoping I could just save her skill and mess him up

That's been my go to for most things lately lol

[full finch]

penans also slapp

but the blood knight is kinda cracked so I'd stick with defenders that can be healed by medic

or mon3tr that works too

[mossy chasm]

So who should block where exactly? I had Saria and Blemi back to back up top and just spammed Blemi's skill to both heal the diagonal tile down and right of her (Pozy) and to hold the insane amount of enemies pouring in up top

[full finch]

gav + saria should be able to hold everything

[mossy chasm]

Gavial and Texas picked up stragglers

[full finch]

and yeah texas can plug gaps

focus on killing corrosion archers, casters, toppola, and blood knight

unless your gav/saria are really low level they really should be able to duo the top, and certainly with texas help

[mossy chasm]

Where exactly do the archers spawn? Is it top left and bottom lanes? Should I use Gnosis and Pozy to kill them fast since I can't drop Texas on them?

[full finch]

top left

then they take the tunnel to bottom right

and then the tunnel to center left

blood knight and casters follow same path

toppola spawns from center left iirc

[mossy chasm]

So if I can just concentrate my firepower up there I can kill them fast?

[north jungle]

What's the better Saria module

[full finch]

yeah

[signal lichen]

what does mod y even do

[full finch]

15% DR, more stats

[signal lichen]

oh damn DR

[full finch]

it's highly superior for tanking

and the bonus attack improves healing

though not quite as much as X mod

[signal lichen]

oh right X doesn't have def

the only thing X has is sp

maybe i will get it after i do other stuff then

since well i already did mod X

[full finch]

I also did mod X

but

Y is better

so I also did that

[north jungle]

Should Saria's S3 be prioritized for Mastery even if I barely use any Arts damage on standard team?

[lost steppe]

S1M1-> S3M3 -> S1M3. S2M3 is good for general use for normal maps, not hard content

[north jungle]

When would I want to use S1? When I have no arts damage dealers?

[solar spindle]

her s1 is healing

[signal lichen]

yes s3 heals

and yes its once in a blue moon useful in that situation

but its literally

a giant ass arts ramp

thats what you use it for

so yes s1 and s2 for heals

[tulip ice]

strategy to get every 6 star from every banner on your first pull: remove mountain from being pull pool

[full finch]

gavial borrow making crownslayer trivial 🛐

[north jungle]

For Arts damage, does Ling's S3 dragons always deal arts damage, or only when her skill is active? What about fused Higher Form?

[full finch]

small dragons deal phys

big dragons deal arts

the aura around the dragons deals arts damage based on ling's own atk

[north jungle]

Thanks, thought so but her skill didn't specifiy about what Higher Form did

Interesting, guess that gives me incentive to alternate between two standard teams, Elysium+bunch of snipers and physical hitters team, and a Ling+Mages+Saria other staples team. For the second one would Myrtle be better than Elysium if no snipers?

[blazing locust]

Man afknights just got so much easier

[full finch]

if you're using elysium S2 you'd want snipers
otherwise it's up to you

[blazing locust]

I love it
