Who should I replace
tidal sedge
Here my very old strat lol
pearl musk
one of the snipers

jessica is not good unit, may and kroos (both 3 star and 5 star) is better
ionic mortar
Like this?
ionic mortar
Put her where?
sly drift
Blud really think random *4 is better than Chong E1L80 
And successfully convinced other 
silent spear
Is it just me or is dif 3 twice as hard as dif 2 in IS3. I'm struggling on normal combat stages with the same ops that breezed through dif 2
silent spear
It only says +10 res and I'm not even using arts damage
sly drift
Maybe just misfortune.
glass monolith
Skill issue, like you dying to +3% STATS PER FLOOR?
silent spear
Which squad is the most efficent?
sly drift
Squad with Texalt on it 
silent spear
Like the starting thing, people oriented squad?
sly drift
Yea people oriented has the highest win rate
Because how easy it is to get your op promoted
silent spear
Yk what I'm gonna build podenco for IS
turbid badge
tf?
sly drift
I think resources and the other one is fine too if you play on diff 3. Since *6 only cost you 6 hope
silent spear
Don't got any support class that are cheap
silent spear
But she can heal
sly drift
Try scene or something
turbid badge
podenco only good if u got the supporter damage per tick w s2
sly drift
Podenco heal isn't good either
silent spear
She's gonna cost 3 hope though
turbid badge
But she can heal
the sp isnt consistent
her sp
beter to just get ansel
from a random meeic ticket
silent spear
What 4 star units are useful in IS?
sly drift
Tbf I think the best way to play IS is having *6 and *3. And no between
Unless you specifically want niche op
turbid badge
Yea
supporter tickets literally for me only reserved for 6*
Ling skalter suzu gnois
sly drift
Tbf I think the best way to play IS is having *6 and *3. And no between
Or just go the reaper IS3 reward
Who is she again
silent spear
Highmore
turbid badge
no 5* supporter thats putstanding other than starting with Mayer
which can help in the later edpansion when the floaties clme earlier
sly drift
Highmore is really good for IS3
sly drift
The cringe dragon 
celest solstice
cringe hard hitting dragon
tidal sedge
Stack everyone on top. Bake a cake. Milk some heal. Done
silent spear
I think his issue is the vase dragon thing
celest solstice
done it

I did it before seeing that suggestion
had to bring a lot of healers but it worked
tidal sedge
Hard stage, maybe some art?
pearl sentinel
Oh shet I cleared ex8cm second try. This boss really do be ez af
sly drift
"Second try"
What a loser
silent spear
Wiat is Ethan worth building?
silent spear
I want ops that could be bought with 1 hope 
autumn grotto
I want ops that could be bought with 1 hope <:LappSad:723540365214220449>
3* at higher difficulty, 4* at low but all ops cost -1 hope to recruit
5* with 5* ops cost -2 hope to recruit when u hv either none or both of -1 hope and high difficulty
silent spear
I’m actually gonna kill myself this is fucking stage one. Why are the enemies so tanky
whats going wrong with this
last run pozy couldn't clear either
autumn grotto
its called emergency
silent spear
You could get emergency on the first stage???!?
autumn grotto
this stage is probably worst stage to face in floor 1
autumn grotto
You could get emergency on the first stage???!?
no?
idk honestly
but i do know that emergency on this map does make those enemies tanky af
silent spear
I swear you can only do this with highmore
autumn grotto
what difficulty
silent spear
3!!!!!
autumn grotto
try
silent spear
It's only dif 3!!!
autumn grotto
texas alter
pretty ok sniper
and fang maxed
or can do maxed kroos
and maybe like a good vanguard idk who tho
im stuck on difficulty 9 i do texas alter, fang, kroos
i may leak but i dont die at least
silent spear
Dawg theres more than 9 difficulties and I'm suffering on dif 3
autumn grotto
i think without highmore la pluma works as well
silent spear
silent spear
its takes time
Is your cognitive shaping maxed?
autumn grotto
idk
i forgot abt it
what is that ah
isit the battle pass like level thingy
or the bonus thingy
silent spear
isit the battle pass like level thingy
It's the thing that you upgrade you units with
autumn grotto
er
silent spear
like you get stronger for the next run
autumn grotto
i think so
at least whenever i end a run now i basically dont get anything
except at the beginning of months cos of extension
silent spear
like 5% extra damage or 1 more originium when starting
ionic mortar
So close
autumn grotto
relying soley on texas alter and is2 experience 
silent spear
So your telling me you got to dif 9 without powerups????
autumn grotto
So your telling me you got to dif 9 without powerups????
i prob got some
ionic mortar
An enemy leaked on the right side

An enemy leaked on the right side

like for cliffheart skill

Which op is good for the knight boss (is3)
autumn grotto
i only remember bck when i hit lvl 60 i spent everything i had then forgot abt it
silent spear
Wait, so you run people oriented with the first squad?
autumn grotto
Which op is good for the knight boss (is3)
er i think ops with spawns eg poz with typewriter, then texas alter, mainly cos of freeze
autumn grotto

Pozy is a sniper unit and typewriter is her summon thingy

I take texas alter but she isnt doing enuff dmg to boss
I dont own her so i borrow her

It's 20 per phase and an additional 10 during the last phase after the boss spawned
autumn grotto

hmmm i mean i think u csn brute force the boss and stall him?
autumn grotto

So I can prolly leak like 2-3 in p1 and burst it down with like mlynar and surtr
autumn grotto
i mean texas alter is used for alot of mob clearing and stalling
silent spear
Why is IS3 so much harder than IS2 
silent spear
yesh kinda
timid acorn
So I can prolly leak like 2-3 in p1 and burst it down with like mlynar and surtr
imo it's easiest to just leak only the first and second phase and kill for the third
silent spear
no need to focus cos it wont exactly run away
true
lavish snow
Take your time tbh, you soon will realise is3 is easier than is2
silent spear
Take your time tbh, you soon will realise is3 is easier than is2
It added way too many new mechanics
It made it so much more luck based
I guess that could also be good thing
latent monolith
IS3 skill tree is huge
Once you clear it and unlock all the new mechanics low diff IS3 is significantly easier than normal IS2
Although IS3 also wants more specific ops
somber falcon
I’m actually gonna kill myself this is fucking stage one. Why are the enemies so...
some tips:
- ethan is pure crowd control, don't expect him to do more than tickling the enemies
- seaborns generally have middling to high res (also buffed further with diff), so arts ops (esp without res shred/ignore/etc) aren't very good picks here
- cuora is practically worse than a baggage for a 1 hope cost. if you really want a cheap blocker with good survivability, just take cardigan instead
odd ivy
Can I ask about base optimization here ?
silent spear
Although IS3 also wants more specific ops
15 difficulty changes is crazy though
latent monolith
The rewards cap out at difficulty 7 though
silent spear
So it's basically a flex to go further
latent monolith
It's still probably easier than hard IS2 but the reward multiplier is higher
Yeah the trim medal is d7 too

If they have high res I'm guessing ling is also not worth the hope?
ionic mortar
Oh I did it
latent monolith
Ling is an okay starter purely because summoner
But if you want to borrow someone for both start and the boss it's probably going to be like horn
somber falcon
not sure since i never use her in is, but she's ok ig
silent spear

Imo horn is a terrible blocker though
somber falcon
but yeah she kinda fall off quick
somber falcon
Imo horn is a terrible blocker though
s2 exists
latent monolith
You can use her S2, it helps a lot
(turns melee attacks into aoe too)
She has good performance across all of the run
somber falcon
and her atk stat is actually worth the cost
silent spear
(turns melee attacks into aoe too)
fr?!? I've had her for a while and I've only used her S3 and S1 since it looks like S2 just kills herself
somber falcon
s3 also does it
latent monolith
S3 kills her more than her S2
S2 only does self damage if you cancel skill in overdrive
silent spear
Whats the boss for the knight ending, skadi?
lavish snow
Knight
somber falcon
if anything, you can squeeze out s2 more and let her come out unscathed compared to s3
latent monolith
It's the 3rd ending
stuck ermine
you bonk her
stuck ermine
yes, you down them both and they will die
silent spear
But they gotta die simultaniously?
Or make them both go into a coma
Doable? If Texas can solo?
stuck ermine
when one of them dies they will revive for some time, as long as the other is still alive
thats your squad before boss?
grand ginkgo
The rewards cap out at difficulty 7 though
You dont get more candles past d7?
silent spear
thats your squad before boss?
wait I'm fucked
I gotta stall the guy until the top guy walks onto a deployable square
stuck ermine
i think its doable, using texalter to kill scorpion, while bagpipe kills the other
silent spear
Oh crap I'm doing the exact opposite
Problem is the guy on the top doesn't wanna move
And I have no way to damage him
somber falcon
just continue killing the bottom guy, he'll move eventually
silent spear
Corrosion stacks though right?
stuck ermine
texalter on low diff can solo those scopion, and its revive time is also about same time as her redeploy time
somber falcon
the status attack? yea
silent spear
Holy shit the guy on the top almost went in, he has so much res
silent spear
the status attack? yea
The 3 purple water droplets is corrosion right?
somber falcon
Corrosion Damage causes the victim to take 800 Physical damage and have their DEF permanently reduced by 100, which can stack without a limit
silent spear
Yikes

Closer to 40 without the gold cert pulls

By stall its like Sleep (kafka or erato) Texas Stun, Gnosis , Mr nothing stun , +stun duration relics are amazing

you roll dice in a lot of places; floor start, wish fulfilled nodes, some events, you can use them in battle for an enemy debuff
what exactly dice do depends on where you're using them; for example, at floor start you're rolling dice to check for rejections/enlightenments. at 100 light, a 6+ is a buff (enlightenment) and you cannot roll rejections. at certain light thresholds, your chances of getting rejections gets higher
you can roll them in shops to refresh slots. it can refresh 2 slots, the whole shop, or if you have some effect that upgrades your dice it'll even spawn rarer relics
at wish fulfilled nodes, 6+ is a bonus relic, and 1 is an entirely different relic than displayed

how do i get light?
glacial depot
you start out with 100 light, on the map it's the big number that's displayed at the top.
if you leak enemies and it drains life points, you lose light, and if you're below half of your max life points you lose light every time you end a battle. other effects can drain light, and there's a few places like events or safe houses that can give you light
deft badger

ok, when i lose light i am getting a debuff?
glacial depot
at the start of the floor, you roll the dice. if you aren't at max light and if you roll too low you get a rejection. rejections debuff one operator for the rest of the run unless you (very rarely) cure their rejection

tropic valve
is3 is so annoying -.- first of all why do i roll some weird dices all the time?
I guess it's all in the spirit of being roguelike
but I agree it's annoying when you reroll a rejection and it lands on the same person
and that kills the run sometimes
glacial depot
i still don't know how i gain light? 😄 or did i skip a part of ur explanation
you can get light from a few random encounters, and from safehouses. generally though you just want to avoid losing what light you start with instead of gaining more

I think i have him at e1
just e1 will do, his 2nd skill does a splash he atks fast and u can place him on the ground but i dont think u really need anyway... u can place any splash caster that is not like lvl1

place him where my weedy stands in case something leaks up there
i even forgot to change her skill -.- lol
splash caster only if ur ethan is trash like mine 😄

Go to #friend-id and find an m3 Surt then
thick badger
What part of the battle is killing u exactly? Are u at least reaching boss phase 3?
clever lantern
i have reached boss phase 3 but its exploding before i can kill it
thick badger
So is the ol space beam the issue
cyan gorge
This is why I recommended Heavyrain, camo makes the beam on phase 3 useless
thick badger
Dollkeepers serve the same purpose
cyan gorge
yeah them too
clever lantern
i am following kukkikaze guide but at the first stage surtr isnt doing enough damage so im forced to use kaltsit to do dmg which wastes time
thick badger
Maybe use a pozy or mlynar strat, or ask for a maxed surtr if u feel it's almost working and u just need that extra stats
clever lantern

I actually tried a guide that did that.
Problem 1: Where the Winterwisp Blood Magisters get killed is very important, cause there's not really time to retake a 'Gramophone' when one gets stolen, but at the same time, these dudes hurt bad with their suicide damage.

Try using gravel to make them stay outside of gramaphone
Any fast redeploy
So they die where you want them to

Problem 2: Despite trying to guide the Hexed Colossus around the 'Gramophone' to their death by waiting till the last second to swap Roadblocks, I ran out of roadblocks before they could be finished.

Try using dicel binders to slow them so they die faster in the gramaphone
