strategy

[scarlet ledge]

when im on cn playing iw for the first time

i didnt beat ex 8 cm

[boreal magnet]

And guess what after that

[scarlet ledge]

cause of kill timer

[boreal magnet]

Friggin EMPEROR BLADE

[boreal magnet]

Yeah me too also

The timer is sucks ball

[weak gazelle]

current event force players with few or very few ops choice to follow map & enemy gimmick
that alone already a challenge not to mention stat buff

[scarlet ledge]

eb is ok

only map make him harder

like wd ex 8

[boreal magnet]

I'm not even finished WD ex 8 normal

Too hard for me

[sly drift]

Suixiang is the hardest?
Bruh I had the most depressing run ever on Endspeaker boss Personally I think SN boss is the hardest of all.

[scarlet ledge]

end speaker is eh

cc exist

plus u can choose what shit to eat for him

[sly drift]

Low rarity run*

[scarlet ledge]

still the same

[tidal sedge]

EX6 NM done

[scarlet ledge]

i beat it with 4★ only
its just cycling and what orb fucker eat

[sly drift]

Idk about others. It's my personal opinion. It was very depressing stages

[boreal magnet]

Grats

[tidal sedge]

Not being able to deploy bottom right

Now the CM

[boreal magnet]

I haven't opened SN yet

I think I'll do it next week

Seaborn enemies are fun

[scarlet ledge]

@sly drift this stage is much more annoying than boss

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/684044989319479319/1042999292073365555/Screenshot_20221118_021841.jpg

[tidal sedge]

I remember doing it when it came out, got stuck on SN-7

[tidal sedge]

The floor is ick

[weak gazelle]

camp at blue box and stack your dps & blocker there
dont forget to bring grenade

[sly drift]

Final Mirror is hardest imo (SN-S-5 or something). Your stage is second.

[scarlet ledge]

no lul

lmfa

[tidal sedge]

Cool

[sly drift]

It took me less attempts atleast. That's how I count difficulty

[weak gazelle]

grenade with chalter/executor are enough to handle the birds facing down

i think even pinecone can handle it too

[tidal sedge]

Ahh

I have her decently leveled

So just camp goal and stack as much dps and blocks

[scarlet ledge]

@sly drift https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/658639480290279435/1042986336409370634/Screenshot_20221118_101402.jpg

[weak gazelle]

yup

[scarlet ledge]

i love indigo

😳

[boreal magnet]

Don't place ur DPS adjacent on deffender or it will deal least dmg

[tidal sedge]

Ive only used her a few times

[tidal sedge]

Elaborate?

Please

[boreal magnet]

U notice there's indicator below the enemies right

U must hit them from the white side

[tidal sedge]

Oh yeah the facing

[boreal magnet]

Yes that

So placing DPS Infront of defender facing up or right (in this map)) will make them hit the weak point

[tidal sedge]

Ahhh

[boreal magnet]

If u place beside them, theyll end up hitting the front side of enemies

[scarlet ledge]

@sly drift what event u most hated?

i think for me its still ToW cause of shaman

[pallid rivet]

is there any point cutting off rathalos' tail? or is it just to weaken one of its attacks?

[sly drift]

SN

[scarlet ledge]

sn is seocnd because of dodge bois

thats it

[sly drift]

Yea. ToW was hardest old gen event isn't it

I experienced the pain too

[scarlet ledge]

probably lonetrail next

annoying event

[sly drift]

Lonetrail stages are hard?

[scarlet ledge]

cause of boss and mechanics

yes lul

its not fun

[sly drift]

The mechanic doesn't seem complicated as ToW or SN

Or that Eben event

[scarlet ledge]

eben event is fine

lonetrail is just annoying

include s stage diffuclty

especially on boss stage

[sly drift]

Idk about enemies ofc.
Have to try it first hand

It just like eps 12 right. It doesn't seems hard until I try it myself. I heard it's harder than eps 10 according to cn

[scarlet ledge]

ep12...

have fun

[boreal magnet]

I forgot what I read, but yeah it's weaken it

[scarlet ledge]

@sly drift its not fun

especially fuckton of annoying enemy

and shit mechanics

[boreal magnet]

All the time when I defeat rath, I ended up cutting it tails

[pallid rivet]

nice

[boreal magnet]

Idk why ppl don't cut it

[scarlet ledge]

how to cut the tails?

i just bruteforce the boss

[boreal magnet]

Hit from the back

[scarlet ledge]

so idk

[pallid rivet]

I did a test run on ex-8, it died before the tail could come off

[boreal magnet]

Oh that's explain. I cannot burst him

[sly drift]

Tail has own HP below Rath HP. Cutting it weakened Rath

[pallid rivet]

fair enough

[scarlet ledge]

i see

[boreal magnet]

The yellow bars

[scarlet ledge]

this is what i did

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/669489344658014208/1152397048696557629/Screenshot_20230916_080945.jpg

[boreal magnet]

I'm totally fine

[cold goblet]

anyone here have a lowend Anni-18 easy strats?

[tidal sedge]

EX 6 CM down

[scarlet ledge]

@cold goblet what ur ops ?

[boreal magnet]

Another step to rathalos

[tidal sedge]

Ye

[cold goblet]

theres Kirito E2 also , this one is old sr

[tidal sedge]

Anything in EX7 i should be worried about?

[scarlet ledge]

u can grab fiametta supprt

[boreal magnet]

Idk if this low-end enough. But we had similar roaster..just borrow thorn.

And I solo rat king with Yato

[cold goblet]

hows the strats?

[tidal sedge]

You can get to 400 with leaks?

[boreal magnet]

B O A R S

[scarlet ledge]

@cold goblet https://youtu.be/q3Ek55PFcPI?si=57uKfwcWULNBaVP6
just adjust ur ops

[boreal magnet]

It's the terminal

Rat king target Terminal since I didn't bring any busted HP op

[scarlet ledge]

use kal for rat king

[tidal sedge]

Ahhh, those bastards

[scarlet ledge]

or any arts damage

[boreal magnet]

It's always them bud

Always

[tidal sedge]

Yup

[kindred galleon]

is there a fire within the sands guide

[boreal magnet]

Mtfkers literally created to annoy players

[tidal sedge]

Mhm

looks at the bullies from CB event

[loud heath]

Texalter cheeses rat

[boreal magnet]

https://imgur.com/a/SdvVdeT

[tidal sedge]

CB was fun...
Fuck those dudes

Code of Brawl aka "Bison's really shitty halloween"

[boreal magnet]

I only hate drunkards/sniper who.keep.hitting the terminals

[scarlet ledge]

only hate drunkard

[boreal magnet]

Every event will atleast have that one enemies

That ruins the fun

[weak gazelle]

drunkards in that anni map was a joke
map itself already prepared us hole, just push them there with weedy or something
even my feater happily push them all

[tidal sedge]

Got to 25/35
With this team plus Surtr

Not entirely sure how to stop piggu

[boreal magnet]

Land mine exist

[tidal sedge]

The shock trap?

[boreal magnet]

Don't use wirebug on that map

[tidal sedge]

Ahhhh

Ok

[boreal magnet]

Yeah whatever the name that palced on ground

[tidal sedge]

That makes sense

[boreal magnet]

Those boars will just destroy everything

[kindred galleon]

who do i bring

[boreal magnet]

For what? If only recources gathering. One ops is enuf

Wait, ujust start?

[kindred galleon]

yessir

[dry skiff]

Flag for DP to fund Frd

[boreal magnet]

This

[dry skiff]

Then just another helidrop

[boreal magnet]

And basically anything busted with 3 bar stamina

[kindred galleon]

no laneholders required ?

[dry skiff]

Lane holder in this game mode is pretty meh outside of Raids

Since most shit will be moving and the map is wide

[cyan gorge]

Ops with drone/summon for scouting

especially if you don't know all the maps

[boreal magnet]

U barely holding a line most of time u just need to erase enemies out of existence

[dry skiff]

You can always just look at a guide to see the maps

[kindred galleon]

does sash reveal enemy identity

[kindred galleon]

?

[cyan gorge]

the reveal is based on the operator's range

[tidal sedge]

Shock trap did nothing

[dry skiff]

Ofc
If they've gonna be affected by SA's invi reveal
Then they're already in his range and get automatically revealed

[kindred galleon]

[boreal magnet]

Fast redeploy is busted if u just start playing this mode

[cyan gorge]

Ex7?

[tidal sedge]

Yes

Nm

[kindred galleon]

wait in the first place r u supposed to fill the whole thing up w ops

[boreal magnet]

Where u placed them?

[dry skiff]

Maps don't show the resources there

So u use scouts to find them

But there are sites with where the resources are at, so u can just use those instead of using scouts of your own

[tidal sedge]

Where i thought piggu was going but it runs right past it

[kindred galleon]

🤔

[mint portal]

hello

[dry skiff]

Hello

[boreal magnet]

Don't tell me it's still cooldown

[cyan gorge]

It shows you the path they take

[tidal sedge]

Yes and it ran right over it

[boreal magnet]

Place it first brother

[cyan gorge]

the mines take a few seconds to set up

[boreal magnet]

If still cooldown that thing doing no shit

[dry skiff]

You don't have to

[tidal sedge]

No, i placed it and it ran over it

[cyan gorge]

Again, needs time to set up

[tidal sedge]

I see

[boreal magnet]

What's ur set up

[cyan gorge]

you can't place and expect it to immediately work

[boreal magnet]

Depends on how, I can pinpoint best location to place it

[boreal magnet]

I mean in the map

[tidal sedge]

Oh

[boreal magnet]

Hi there

[unkempt gale]

What are thorns substitutes

[cyan gorge]

Depends on context

[dry skiff]

Typhoon

[cyan gorge]

cause he can do multuple jobs

[tidal sedge]

I place myrtle behind the bottom ranged tile, vg texas nd zima mid. After that i kinda wing it

[unkempt gale]

For afk strat

[boreal magnet]

If u happens to do something like this.u can place it on middle down..below the single higround tiles

[south bone]

I hate this stage bruh

[boreal magnet]

Only boars walk to that path

[cyan gorge]

If no drones he needs to take care of, any blocker + ranged op will work

[tidal sedge]

Ths CM was actually easier for me than the nm

[north widget]

how do you guys beat rathalos at cf9

[boreal magnet]

Granades + Yalter + Texter

[cyan gorge]

Surtr can solo

[tidal sedge]

Whos a good borrow for ex7

[north widget]

surtr needs myrtle i think

[cyan gorge]

An aoe slow/bind would help

[tidal sedge]

So ethan lol

[cyan gorge]

Suzuran could work

I didn't actually use Ethan in ex7

[south bone]

I used Ethan in EX-5

[cyan gorge]

So did I

[dry skiff]

[boreal magnet]

Shirayuki

[kindred galleon]

or shld i take an eyja / sash / ntrk

[boreal magnet]

I, think this is good

Actually

U can use them too

The other operators

But they just start with 0 stamina

Need to replenish them

[kindred galleon]

im thinking texas + yato cld be abit overkill

[boreal magnet]

Ull change ur mind once u start the mode

This mode overkills u

[fringe jackal]

any other aoe damage dealers? in general you mostly want farming units that are good dps dealers to get 3 stamina (because action 1 is generally a battle or raid or something and action 2 is generally farming )

later on you can hoard the 3 stamina food (from the deer)

[kindred galleon]

chalter, ifrit's the true aoe i got ig

[turbid badge]

dont take saria for the 3 stamina

[fringe jackal]

there are fewer ranged tiles so ranged units aren't too great for the pick sadge

[turbid badge]

take someone who can do aoe yea

or just kal

[kindred galleon]

mlynar surtr texas aint enough ??

that's downright disgusting

[turbid badge]

oh reedics a good one

[kindred galleon]

[fringe jackal]

it's mainly about farming harder

[kindred galleon]

i do have her

[turbid badge]

yea fair but u barley use saria other than for raids and to protect my stuff ( the basic gathering devices) i usually just use frdp or summoner/surtr depends on map enemies

[kindred galleon]

idk abt yato tbh 🤔

[turbid badge]

nah shes great

Youll use her alot

[kindred galleon]

i do have texas in there alr

[turbid badge]

Both good

[kindred galleon]

kek

ok

so uh

it seems saria is the questionable one ?

[boreal magnet]

Yato is broken wood cutter

[turbid badge]

for hunting maps most people just use yato texas and like 2 other fast redeploys kekw

[turbid badge]

Yea thats all

[kindred galleon]

then... replacement w who

[turbid badge]

u just feed her stamina later if u really need her

[turbid badge]

Reedic probably

[kindred galleon]

ight

[turbid badge]

shes decent at farming wood / stone too

[kindred galleon]

eyja could feel slightly more reliable tho (?)

[fringe jackal]

the good thing about reedic is she subs as an attacker (farmer) and medic

[fringe jackal]

use reedic

[turbid badge]

she can self heal

[kindred galleon]

oh right

[fringe jackal]

there are a lot of annoying ass maps where they will take swipes at your units

[tidal sedge]

Got to the last 5 enemies then wiped in EX7

[fringe jackal]

while you are trying to mine rocks or whatever

[turbid badge]

yea when she attack the wood and stuff she just heals

so its really nice

[tidal sedge]

Idk what to do at that time

[kindred galleon]

actl what abt kaltsit

she also heals, has busted range to check tiles

and mon3tr

[deft badger]

RA is boring...

[turbid badge]

shes nice too i guess

just pick one

i use both more than saria

[north widget]

using sultr solo rathalos is quite hard

[deft badger]

yeah because rat doesn't wanna stop moving 😄

[boreal magnet]

Texas S2

Works better for me

[north widget]

solo?

i can borrow texas s2 tho

[boreal magnet]

U have yalter right?

[north widget]

yah only E2 lvl 20

[boreal magnet]

Enuf, just spam them to rath. And hit from the back

[north widget]

how do you deal with all the sheeps

[boreal magnet]

This cf9?

[north widget]

yes

[deft badger]

u block mid, when he comes closer u recall

block entrance

then clap him and u done

[boreal magnet]

Basically this

U still have time until rath enter the map

[deft badger]

and with block i mean u use some guards or something with self sustain

don't know how ur team looks like

[north widget]

my team level is too low ig

[deft badger]

if u are able to use taxas + yato its easy

[tidal sedge]

Fuck. This. Mission

Its not possible

[south bone]

What mission

[boreal magnet]

U mad bruh

[tidal sedge]

CF-EX-7

No matter what i do i get overrun at the 20 kill mark

[cyan gorge]

By boars?

[deft badger]

focus on clearing shop then

same with RA

[north widget]

clearing shop?

[boreal magnet]

U clearly not hitting them from weak point so they got stacked

[deft badger]

i wouldn't waste time on the boss its not really worth

[tidal sedge]

The boars i can deal with its the moonwalking bastards that kill me

[south bone]

who is the moonwalker

[deft badger]

and how u got nearly nothing but u are here since sep -.-

[tidal sedge]

The ones that eat the shell bros

[south bone]

hm

[boreal magnet]

They're like just 2 of em

On that map

[tidal sedge]

Yes and they one shot my ops

[south bone]

Oneshot?

How

[north widget]

alright with texas and kirito it seems alot of leaks

[tidal sedge]

Im asking that myself

[cyan gorge]

I forgot my exact set up on ex7, I think it was something like Penance, Qiubai, Firewhistle

[deft badger]

for real focus on clearing it

[tidal sedge]

Maybe not one shot but they do a shit ton of damage

[boreal magnet]

So u're using Texas s3 right? Try to intercept.them before getting those sells. Or kill the stationary shell guy firsy

That sells make them sturdier afaik

[cyan gorge]

yeah you can kill the idling turtles with Yato/Taxes

[tidal sedge]

I tried that, might have to switch to S2

[deft badger]

anyway if u are willing, i would even reroll that what u got is a joke and u are since SEP in the game
clearing the shop is easy fast, i would bet on getting 2 6* from the beginner yato and surtr
with the events we have right now u are in 2 days on the same point where u are at
with more 6*

[south bone]

yeah the shell make them sturdier for their front

[boreal magnet]

How'd you do that bruh

[cyan gorge]

[deft badger]

nope

[tropic valve]

nice I just did a sniper only RA run

was fun

[deft badger]

used like 10 sanity pods on it

[tropic valve]

-40% SP cost on W goes hard

[deft badger]

this cleared on its own yesterday after i finished ex stages

[boreal magnet]

This is normal

That one

[deft badger]

i have that 5usd thing

where i get daily a sanity pod

[boreal magnet]

Fair enough

I had like... Alot of refill too

But still didn't clear it

[plucky flint]

Rng issue

[deft badger]

when the event started i did have like 5-6 of them wasted all of it day one 😄

yeah rng is a b-

i am swimming in chips and salt right now

"devices"

but i would say its worth, using even if u have to OP on it to clear

[wraith dirge]

hello is there some sort of resource for reclamation algorithm like the constructs/towers info and stuff (google sheets or something)

[deft badger]

u will probably waste like 10-15 worst case

[fierce hawk]

how tf do I beat this kla;jsdlkasd

yt doesnt help lmao

[loud heath]

this event is oddly hard

[fierce hawk]

yeah lmao

complicated

[boreal magnet]

Git

Gud

[deft badger]

hahahaha

😄

[boreal magnet]

Honestly

Wirebug is broken against rathalos

[tidal sedge]

Im either dumb or doing something wrong

[boreal magnet]

U can make eyja does ult, wirebug and redeploy for reset cooldown

Works with other ops

[tidal sedge]

Really abusable with Texalter

[deft badger]

how did u do it at the end?

[dry skiff]

Surtr wirebug best combo

[tidal sedge]

Im putting ops down at the bottom but they end up getting killed

How am i supposed to hit rockbros weak spot?

[dry skiff]

Use a frd to hit it

[tidal sedge]

And i can get all but one shell bro down before it gets eaten

[deft badger]

where u even at?

[tidal sedge]

CF-EX-7 NM

[deft badger]

which one is it this?

i wish they would write the stupid names to it and not some random s-

[boreal magnet]

That one

[cyan gorge]

Ex6 cm

Oh wait

misread the qstn

[dry skiff]

Just use normal lane holding shit then use Omertosa to counter boars

Exu to take down the flies on the left

[cyan gorge]

ex7 = birth of a hero

[dry skiff]

Oh low
Rarity

[deft badger]

this one

[dry skiff]

Nvm

[deft badger]

nvm found it 😄

[tidal sedge]

I dont have Exu

[deft badger]

flashbang and that taser trap

[tidal sedge]

Im trying that

[boreal magnet]

Well u can try wirebug Texas into oblivion 😂

Just put her everywhere to kill anything

[deft badger]

flashbang birds left side they comen at the same time flashbang comes from cd

[dry skiff]

Borrow Exu

[deft badger]

pigs taser them

[tidal sedge]

Thats what ive been doing

[deft badger]

do u have texas i don't remember anymore

[tidal sedge]

Yes

[deft badger]

yato texas the pig

[boreal magnet]

He had like broken comps

[balmy jolt]

Whats the deal with Flashbangs on Rathalos? Idk if I'm doing them wrong but they just won't stun half the time

[deft badger]

get a pozi facing top mid

just abuse the stupid ulty

[boreal magnet]

Throw Infront of him

To his face

[deft badger]

the moment u see pig rush from left u can plant taser on entrance

texas yato that thing

[balmy jolt]

Huh guess I can try that

[boreal magnet]

It won't work if the flash bang explode behind him

[balmy jolt]

word

[tidal sedge]

I tried that, i cannot time it that well

[cyan gorge]

place 5 seconds in advance

[deft badger]

there is nothing to time
that thing charges nearly insta

[boreal magnet]

Just place it bro, only the boar walk to that path

And after that the moonwalks

[tidal sedge]

Ok.
Yall think im worried about the boars. I can handle the boars, its the rockbros i cant kill

[dry skiff]

Oh right
High voltage trap
I should've think about that when i was doing that stage

[tidal sedge]

Bc the way i have to face i cant hit the weak spot

[boreal magnet]

How's your team placement actually?

[tidal sedge]

So what ive been doing is two vgs either side, guards in front. Perfumer left front tile, Jessica back left tile, shirayuki/eyja bottom right front tile.

[boreal magnet]

This is where I placed the damage dealer

[balmy jolt]

Worked like a charm thanks so much

[boreal magnet]

Place eyja on the middle

[tidal sedge]

Do i just not use vgs here? Just myrtle?

Ill try once more, then take a shower.

[boreal magnet]

Use fang atelast for the early rush, my run is not smooth early since mountain leak and myrtle.had to face one dog

[cold goblet]

@scarlet ledge gg thx

[south bone]

Damn i'm stuck in ex-7 cm

[fierce hawk]

just finished klajsdklasjda

finally

wasted 50 sanity

[kind quartz]

I destroyed every block, where are all of the resources?

[sly drift]

You can hit the very right wall. The one that looks like cracked rock

It reveal new zone

[kind quartz]

[sly drift]

[cyan gorge]

it's faster to break the bottom rock

[deft badger]

sound off xD
have to record it again because the music running in the back
youtube...

[loud heath]

how is cf ex 8 cm easier than cf ex 7 nm

[deft badger]

https://youtu.be/BVBrXyti1is

[tidal sedge]

I will look at it tomorroe

I am wiped out. Ill try again in the morning

[deft badger]

CM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HdPQvA4aWY

but i don't think the cm video is going to help u at all, depends if u can hold front with ur healer tank what u even got there

[turbid badge]

mint attack canceling

[loud heath]

washing machine

[north widget]

Someone help cf9 i can't do with sultr solo and texalter with yato

[loud heath]

have you tried clearing it normally

[north widget]

Not yet

What do you mean clear Normally? Clearing it without killing rath?

[loud heath]

well solo challenges need tight timings so

whats ur roster

[loud heath]

well you might want to level up your defenders and healers first

it really helps

[north widget]

Cuora and the healers

[deft badger]

this might even be better for cm

[loud heath]

atleast to 40

[north widget]

I thought soloing using surtr is enough

[loud heath]

well if you want to 1:1 copy a surtr solo go ahead

its actually easier just use wirebugs on surtr

[turbid badge]

just got siege module

anyways hate how its green

[loud heath]

green for 2 star

[turbid badge]

like there all green , the +atk% one is yellow but the green on all of them just looks funky

[loud heath]

what the siege doin there

[turbid badge]

just showcasing the green colored module on like half the vgs

[latent monolith]

What color are flag mods

[scarlet ledge]

i kneel siege

[turbid badge]

im sure theres only 1 variant and there white colored

[turbid badge]

dat leite picture

[scarlet ledge]

thats mine

wtf

[turbid badge]

wtf siege

[scarlet ledge]

imma ban u

[loud heath]

[scarlet ledge]

just dont look at top

vfx overload

[loud heath]

what i can see is passenger and mostima skills only

[south bone]

Mint!!

[scarlet ledge]

see

someone finally see mint

🧎‍♂️

[loud heath]

whar where

oh i htought it was weedy summon

[scarlet ledge]

bruhe

[turbid badge]

siege feel so much better

now i see “siege talent tiles”

[south bone]

I love her skin

so it's noticeable ig

[turbid badge]

ok she feels better but this event i cant really urilize her well as shes getting her ass smacked by birds and boars

[scarlet ledge]

just bait it

[turbid badge]

waiting for chapter 1:

13 glasglow

[boreal magnet]

Tile ban are dougshet

Letse how rathalos doing in cm

[north widget]

texalter solo cf9 with kirito possible?

[glass monolith]

King Siege and her Britishman of the round table

[boreal magnet]

They can solo it with utage

Ain't no way those two can't do it

[fringe jackal]

there are vids of kirito solo alone (but full or near full pot)

use wiredrone

[dull birch]

incase someone struggle in EX, i recommended this channel.
https://youtu.be/SJCaHthJFFI?si=_THHYRXZx7zC3goM

[north widget]

i'm trying to use both i finished it but just 2 stars

[boreal magnet]

Thanks bud, definitely doing it after reset.im our of drill plan

[boreal magnet]

If u having hard time, focus on the mobs first and let rathalos phase 2 for the second map

[north widget]

what's rathalos weak pt btw

[north widget]

you need to wirebug yato and texalter around to finish mobs

[boreal magnet]

Yeah I don't see problem with that

[north widget]

which texalter skill is better

s2 or s3

[high crest]

It depends

[north widget]

vs rathalos

[boreal magnet]

S2

[glass monolith]

Unless you want to be like me who inhaled copium and was chasing flying rathalos with S2 Chen, why the hell would you S3 Texas on single target?

[north widget]

is it unrelenting downpour

alright done

[boreal magnet]

Lesson learned, instead facing rath p2 and adds. It's better to stall it first until the whole wave of adds cleared

I was trying to clear whole boars and dog wave while rath on phase 2 before

[dull birch]

i'm running out of drill plan because of those Boars lol.

[turbid badge]

dagda voiceline make me go aaa

[dull birch]

and increase flash grenade CD in CM i see little hope for my brain...

[boreal magnet]

For real, me to. Those boars are creature of damnation

[glass monolith]

Just kill boss in 1 flashbang

[turbid badge]

A fight? Wicked, bring it on... Ahem, as a Knight of the Tower, i accept your challenge

[dull birch]

heh yeah. in that clip stalling is changing the game for me. after that Rathalos pretty much got gangbang by my Surtr, mylnar, Suzuran, Yato.

[jovial nest]

finally she's ready.

for when i actually need to stall seriously

[glass monolith]

And then JuSan scored r18w1 on CC12 and chilled

[dull birch]

beware. i used Hosii S2 to stall at first. Boss hp dropped prettty fast lol.. failed..

Hoshi*

[jovial nest]

she's just in the benches

just like Ceobe

for when the specific time i actually have to take stuff seriously happens

[turbid badge]

havent even got ceobe mod

Havent used her in a bit actually

[glass monolith]

Lin event map with CM "enemy have +110% DEF"

[turbid badge]

what was the second module here

[glass monolith]

Ceobe got "1 sp on attacking elite" module on CN?

[jovial nest]

ahhhh, there's the real DEF when blocking

[turbid badge]

Yea

[dull birch]

i always used Hoshi with 4 block with 30% RNG to prevent dmg heh. pretty much fearless unless mobs are art dmg.. tho i have Nightingale for that too..

[glass monolith]

And it upgraded.... Wait it upgraded that shitty talent?

[turbid badge]

its not amazing its for some wierd scenarios i guess, s1 shenanagans idk

[jovial nest]

25% is great in its own right and i prefer consistent tanking. So i went DEF route

[dull birch]

heh yeah. i chose because of 4 block. . and more RNG is quite funny. but i'll craft that module later too.

pretty THICC def

[jovial nest]

you would? Data Blocks are premium

you really have to be careful with em

[turbid badge]

Nice u just made me realize siege ate like 12 blocks

[dull birch]

always. i only used it on my main roster ofcourse

[jovial nest]

mod3 6* eats a LOT

[jovial nest]

I've modded some specific ops that are not commonly used

i mean

Hoshi and Ceobe are such

[turbid badge]

kitty gang

[jovial nest]

cause i like to cover my bases

in case of unique situations

I mean.....I invested here too just in case i need 17 seconds of stun

[dull birch]

even they are my perma support units. i didn't even want to lv2-3 these trash module lol..

really not worth it to lv.3

[autumn grotto]

whyd lvl 2 ng mod isnt that mod just for extea range?

[boreal magnet]

Hah, W guide lol

[jovial nest]

it's nice lvl 1

[boreal magnet]

Watching guide just unlock easy mode

[jovial nest]

the extra range for that single guy is great

[turbid badge]

and basee!

[jovial nest]

i never much watch AK gameplay vids

[autumn grotto]

i know

im wondering

[dull birch]

heh yep. i wasted on that one

[autumn grotto]

why lvl 2

[jovial nest]

if it was base only i wouldn't have mod3'd her

[autumn grotto]

ah makes sense

[boreal magnet]

This shit working perfectly

[autumn grotto]

understndable tho

i got lumen both mods

cos i stupidly thought the first mod was good

then my fren told me abt the second one

i was like “fuck”

[boreal magnet]

I'm desperate, out of drill plans. So I seek help

[autumn grotto]

help for?

i clearly was not part of this conversation earlier

[jovial nest]

I am REALLY waiting in on Ya2's 2nd mod

[boreal magnet]

Oh sorry, I implies that gameplay vids

[jovial nest]

it has a LOT more potential

damage wise

[dull birch]

the EX stages

[autumn grotto]

which one in particular

[boreal magnet]

Ex stages cm

[autumn grotto]

for me took abit of experimentations but they kinda ok

[boreal magnet]

Rathalos cm

[autumn grotto]

if i suffering then i shall grant thou:
kyostin is a lifesaver

[autumn grotto]

frd surtr + texas alter yato

[boreal magnet]

I just realized that it's easier to deal with adds first

And stall the dragon

[autumn grotto]

u just keep cycling the tool just to make sure surtr doesnt go into 60s redeployment

[autumn grotto]

yep

[boreal magnet]

Yeah I've done it

[autumn grotto]

i did sweep phase 1

phase 2 half

[boreal magnet]

With yato and texas

[autumn grotto]

then just clear everyone else

using frd surtr

and the actual frds

then settled draon whenever i could cos stun bomb takes forever to come back

[boreal magnet]

My deffender soloing phase 1

[jovial nest]

after using so many redep nukers

I just love including Skadi S2M3 in them

her mod3 really makes her be spammed a lot more

and the beauty of the mod is it also gives her so much ATK when blocking

[turbid badge]

me when i use skadi to mine stone

[jovial nest]

i prefer to use Galter sometimes

her S2 and 3-block helps hubs a lot

[flat sapphire]

Rly not worth coz she can only carry 1

Better off using texas2 s2

[scarlet ledge]

so pro

[flat sapphire]

No u

[dull birch]

for both mining and chopping, i used Mylnar.. and use gathering hub lv.1 to collect.

also Surtr S3 + Aak for mining. throw Eyja S3 in there too... i hate mining rock in RA...

[jovial nest]

the fuck is this? EX-8 Rath's Phase 1 is pathetic

[boreal magnet]

I told u, my defender solo damaging it

[solid dew]

phase 1 is paper in general

[scarlet ledge]

p1 is just that

[boreal magnet]

📸

[jovial nest]

you were saying?

this non-CM is a joke

[boreal magnet]

Wait until u saw CM is a down version joke

[jovial nest]

I guess most people here don't have such stacked rosters as I

and enjoy this thrashing

they didn't even spam birds with rocks in this EX-8

[scarlet ledge]

ngl what even is cm

on boss

i didnt read it

[boreal magnet]

More hp and atk

And more countdown on tools

[turbid badge]

wow thags alot of died ops..

[jovial nest]

dead?

[turbid badge]

yes

[jovial nest]

they retreated

[turbid badge]

oh

[jovial nest]

look at all of the ops

they're meant to drop, nuke, and go out

[turbid badge]

boar 🐗

boar killing

[jovial nest]

nah

Texter and Ya2 handles them

even if they die in the process

[turbid badge]

yeah im saying ur using ur nuke frdp ops to kill boar 🐗

im using bind on them

So tjeu dont fucking steamroll threw like a lawnmower in pvz

[boreal magnet]

[sonic willow]

bro use your wiredrones

[jovial nest]

he is

it ain't 15

[dull birch]

maybe Texalter S3 can finished it off?

[fringe jackal]

if you leak rathalos from this map he will just go to the next one and you get a second attempt since he circles that one a few times before going for the blue box on the second map
but make sure you deal with all the other enemies

(assuming that's the stage with the second map)

[boreal magnet]

Bro don't worry it's a screenshot post cleared

Already cleared it

[fringe jackal]

all good

[boreal magnet]

Appreciated it brothers

[jovial nest]

increased HP my ass. That Rath still died Phase 1 with Texter and Ya2 1 cycle in CM

[weak gazelle]

this already took 3 ops as support to burst him down in one go
cm one have to play differently, all about surviving it fireball

[latent monolith]

Phase 1 is nothing

Phase 2 is literally +400k

[jovial nest]

The only challenge being the flash bomb having a much more annoying cooldown

[latent monolith]

P1 meanwhile is 30k

[jovial nest]

still weak af. No buffers/debuffers used for late game players

and so it was able to breathe fire on some of my laners

[weak gazelle]

400k at cm or normal map?

[latent monolith]

320k on normal, 390k EX, 470k S

Although the flash bomb does double damage taken for a bit

[weak gazelle]

we have s map?
interesting

i just hate his targetting
its completely random
and only flashbang can knock it down

[latent monolith]

I don't think it's random

[south bone]

You can literally kill his phase 1 with most ops tho

or his flying phase also count as phase 1?

[latent monolith]

Phase 1 is no hp yea

It's 30-40k vs phase 2's 400k+

[boreal magnet]

It's prioritize unit with higher hp

And most units stacked

[jovial nest]

CM done. just rearranged my laners so they don't die from that breath

Lumen not even used.

[worthy ermine]

just spawn kill

[jovial nest]

nah

that means I would use buffers debuffers

doesn't require me to go that tryhard

[worthy ermine]

you have skalter

[jovial nest]

S2M3

[worthy ermine]

thats what i used

[jovial nest]

S3M3 is where i consider her worth tryharding

Skalter S3M3 is where things get serious

S2M3 is basic laning buffs for me

[worthy ermine]

i couldnt find a s3m3 but s2 was enough

had to use warf tho

warf is skill level 7

[jovial nest]

I love abusing my investments on Pot6 Mod3 Bagpipe

i love using her as redep nuker

[weak gazelle]

yeah mb
i just read the prts
its not random target but still hard to manage it

at the very least its quite challenging which is good
not some boring boss map on previous events

[sonic willow]

Least scuffed clear ever

[jovial nest]

Ultimate trial my ass.
Just having worse flash bomb cooldowns makes CM harder

[sonic willow]

Both stages you just spam wiredrone on surtr

[jovial nest]

I used wirebug once

on Surtr

thats it

Torched Alight CM is hardest. And even then it didn't warrant buffers/debuffers

the tools are just too good

unlike other bosses where their weaknesses are also hard to manipulate

like Artillery

[sonic willow]

Wiredrone is like the most op event mechanic ever

[jovial nest]

i like cars a lot more

[sonic willow]

Oh right cars

[loud heath]

What event was that

[jovial nest]

IC

[loud heath]

ah the event before i started

[glass monolith]

Oh no, you won't have car parts on rerun

[jovial nest]

rerun ended on CN

[latent monolith]

Car parts carry over to rerun?

[glass monolith]

Well DH stickers did

[latent monolith]

Does bind reset the charging dudes

[jovial nest]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/669489344658014208/1069881488662863912/image.png

fun

iirc bind usually does jackshit on running enemies

[glass monolith]

Yes stun and bind should reset boars charge

[jovial nest]

ah boars are weakasses then

[glass monolith]

I find it stupid than boars on EX-8 gain speed and damage from AFKing

[latent monolith]

It does seem to reset

[latent monolith]

Sarkaz lancers do too

[high crest]

What enemy is that?

Like the cars

[jovial nest]

its not

its ours

its OUR WEAPON

[glass monolith]

That's the best part, that's not enemy

[jovial nest]

think of it like this

remember the NL light gimmick of making you think of how to face operators differently?

IC is that except way better implemented

[high crest]

Damn they freeze enemies for us

[jovial nest]

our ops' facing is how you steer the cars

[glass monolith]

There is enemy which insta kill cars on touch, but if you get it blocked before it do, you can just freeze car rest of stage

[latent monolith]

My IC S5 clear was funny

Elysium and myrtle were the only ground units

and I had pozy warf suzu for bursting boss

that's it

[loud heath]

Cars look fun

[latent monolith]

There are several stages you can nearly 0 op with cars

[glass monolith]

There is one farm stage you can 0op, but it has funny taxi which won't take much from cars

[fringe jackal]

this looks like a nightmare with all those cars

[glass monolith]

My boss stage was: Kill boss phase 1, then cars.
EX-boss: Kill boss phase 1, kill 4 enemies who can break cars, cars

[high crest]

The cars freezes enemies

[jovial nest]

using parts that increase direction nodes?

[latent monolith]

Yea

[jovial nest]

correction, they apply cold

but since you make cars fast

or small gapped

or intersect

they freeze

[high crest]

[latent monolith]

https://youtu.be/apHzwDGREig

[high crest]

Is this a past event?

[latent monolith]

https://youtu.be/8Ce5eQeU_NM

Silvergun transformed to carknights that event

[jovial nest]

its silvergun's dream cause 4* lack enough stats that he will be the one who exploits it the most

well....maybe outside ILA

[latent monolith]

https://youtu.be/1pRDUTWcRjE

[latent monolith]

These are just car solos

He does have carless clears

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXoDgacFc6w

[fringe jackal]

wtf

[latent monolith]

Mud S3 feels great to use
except when I mistime it and boars leak

[jovial nest]

Mud S3.....my god it's been forever since i used that

[scarlet ledge]

sheesh

its near

i can finally get my ya2

120 pull for her

[lethal dragon]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/948754147375730698.png?quality=lossless&size=48

GG

[scarlet ledge]

atleast i got her

[latent monolith]

I got schwarz pot 60 pulls in

[scarlet ledge]

gotta wait for reset to get my free 10hh

[north widget]

cf3 ex swarm at the start solution?

[latent monolith]

no ya2 for me

[latent monolith]

Penance

[glass monolith]

Cold applying cars are just that broken in IC

[latent monolith]

The bomb device helps iirc? but I just used penance

[jovial nest]

Ya2's S2 is love

I love it

I love it as much as Texter's S3

[latent monolith]

Reflect just kills the whole thing

Yato S3 could work ig

[glass monolith]

Add on that "Auto send cars" and "Cars send CD down" and chill

[north widget]

who has an E2 penance with max skil that i can borrow?

[latent monolith]

I have S3M2

You'll want to have a solution for common enemies ofc

[north widget]

i'm dealing with cf3 ex

[sonic willow]

I have pen s3m3

[dry skiff]

I have you

[vernal lion]

[boreal magnet]

It's so hard

How many phases Tal have?

[gleaming lodge]

2

[boreal magnet]

Any good suggestion of how to stall her?

[gleaming lodge]

Try to defend only 2 lanes at most during the fireball waves

[sullen rover]

ng borrow prob}

[gleaming lodge]

You can stall with anything (Saria + NG is great iirc)
As long as you bait the burning DoT

[boreal magnet]

The first wave of casters destroy my lane

Hmm, I guess I can borrow NG

[formal gorge]

I've been kinda half-assing the MH stages, but today I gave it some effort and discovered the fun that is wiredropping Surtr and Kirin Yato around the maps. Good times.

[boreal magnet]

Man, Nearl can't survive casters first wave

This talulah target 2 for the fire dot

[merry jolt]

you need 2 fast redeploy for that

i think she did the burning thing for like 20 seconds a time

yea, it is something like that

[heady hedge]

yeah you can pick gravel red

gravel yato

[boreal magnet]

Mountain can't hold the lane lol

Amiya singe handledly tank the fire storm

[sonic willow]

Borrow NG and use amiya to stall

[boreal magnet]

That's what I did

Now my problem is mountain can't hold the lane

[sonic willow]

How long is chongyue range o

[boreal magnet]

Cross 3*3

[sonic willow]

Why not have chong and nearl each cover a lane

[boreal magnet]

The spear guy will leaks chong

Or maybe I can change mountain beside chong

Behind"

[civic bear]

Just space ops by1 tile

[boreal magnet]

That way, NG heal can't reach mountain

[civic bear]

Swap cy and nearly placement. Mountain 3 tiles above new cy placement. It's fine if mountain dies during fireball
There are only 4 dogs which dies to cy when passing by.
Deploy mountain again later after 2nd fireball wave ends to block last dogs lancer wave

[sonic willow]

Why not kill them with yato

[boreal magnet]

There are two of them after the fire balls

Maybe I kill tall too early

[civic bear]

That's if

It's 2nd fireball

[sonic willow]

You got cuora right

You have vg yato as well

[civic bear]

First wave
18 mobs + tal
2nd wave starts when talulah dies phase1
4 dogs
3rd wave starts when talulah dies phase 2
Dogs+2 lancer

[boreal magnet]

Yeah, honestly I feel stupid because I put Cuora Infront amiya during fire storm to protect magirl

[sonic willow]

Amiya tanks fireball much better than cuora

[boreal magnet]

Wait

[civic bear]

Mobs that spawn during fireballs are just 4 dogs which cy can kill easily. So you really only need 1 lane during that.
Nearl cy ng myrrh solves that

[boreal magnet]

The lancer came after talulah dies phase 1

[civic bear]

That is if you burst kill

[boreal magnet]

I see

No more bursting

I've learned my lessons

[civic bear]

The intended way is to deal with mobs, then stall talulah, then kill4 dogs, stall talulah, deal with the rest of the mobs

[sonic willow]

Yeah, you can empty 1 Lane during fireball

The other Lane, you sustain with unit train of laner - NG - 2nd healer

[boreal magnet]

I see, I'll give it another shoot then

[civic bear]

You can burst but like. Just do it after 18 first mobs dies or almost die

Just delay it a bit

[boreal magnet]

Wait, NG s2 or s3?

Checkpoint

[sullen rover]

s3

it’ll keep your ops alive for the fireball waves

[boreal magnet]

The red stone thing

I think it's killed my NG

[sullen rover]

kill it with kirito and eyja

[sonic willow]

Pro tip, use the cages to tank fireball

[merry jolt]

You need some fast redeploy both baiting Talulah skill and destroying the red pillar in phase 2

i clear this back when Texas alter and Yato alter is still a thing in CN

dunno how i did it lmao

one question, is Talulah in TFN2 easier than story Talulah?

[glass monolith]

Literally same as JT8-3

[merry jolt]

I find her easier than JT8-3

probably because i have monster to chomp her health down now compared to Amiya

[timid acorn]

Her stats are the same as JT8-3 but TFN2 is considerably easier because you have modules buffing your ops, Gelato Stops to take 2 lanes of Fireball waves for free and EBs Dominion to significantly reduce her aspd

[glass monolith]

And you can leak in TFN2

While JT8-3 is eat shit and tank this dog wave in middle of fireball wave

[solid dew]

and H8-3 is eat shit and baby half a dozen civs

[jovial nest]

the challenge is that there's waves that come in after BOTH firewaves.
designed so you leak when you get wiped entirely

and some of those mobs require 2-blocks

[boreal magnet]

This is disgusting, whole run collapsed as soon as NG ded

[boreal magnet]

That stone weak to arts?

[sullen rover]

idk myrtle can do it i dont see how eyja and kirito wont

[boreal magnet]

Aight gonna try again

[vernal lion]

200 def and 20 res

[severe nova]

Ling CF-8

[boreal magnet]

[stable jacinth]

Holy God of Terra, this mode force me doing Mostima, Balans, Suzuran, Saria Cycle WHAT THE HELL MAN

[vernal lion]

just let them come to your completed base

[boreal magnet]

I think I need to place Nearl one tile down

So NG doesn't get double explode damage

[stable jacinth]

Got another enemy coming, see the Enemies, AH SHIT... HERE WE GO AGAIN...

[sly drift]

I thought ed 2 would be very hard so prepare all shits I have

It's fuckin joke if you destroy the backline first

[dry skiff]

end2 and end3 are a joke compare to end1 lol

[sly drift]

What's ed 3 boss gimmick

So I have to discard treasure map in order to get ed3?

[sonic willow]

It's very hard

Very hard to get

[sly drift]

I already have the "crossed list" item

[dry skiff]

he just self heal
literally that

He also hit a super attack every 3rd attack

But end1 hurts more lol

[sly drift]

Can this block it?

[dry skiff]

End3 is just a disappointment

I prepared alot of food for it for it to be a shitty boss

[dry skiff]

Hoshi is more than enough to permanently stall that fucker with a medic

Then just use whatever to kill it

He doesn't hit that hard dw

[vernal lion]

every 2 attack, the next attack deal aoe attack with massive dmg
after being defeated, the pilot jumps out and fix its machine, being invinsible, can't be blocked and reflecting dmg when attacked
after 30s, if the pilot is not defeated, returning to its machine and fight like original

[dry skiff]

Oh ye
He also have those reflect golem with him

So you might want to prepare some ranged dps instead of mlynar

[sly drift]

Just stats check then

[sly drift]

Why

[dry skiff]

Well unless you can outheal the reflect dmg, mlynar will die since he's multi hit

[sly drift]

This is what I have what do I miss for ed 3

[dry skiff]

Discard Map and Ball

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1anE0mIGmPwfoufjOCw5AOCtw9sF6FDr9kF9nPk_oRU0/edit?usp=sharing

There's a guide here

For ending

[vernal lion]

you just need discard map

[dry skiff]

Just scroll down

[vernal lion]

there's missing info I forgot to talk about

[dry skiff]

theres a more detailed on the docs

[vernal lion]

for ending 3, you need to discard map, and talk to Sand Soldier, DO NOT talk to Isin

[sly drift]

Why can't I discard the items

[vernal lion]

do it before starting new game

[dry skiff]

your in a run

[sly drift]

Bruh I did several encounter needed to get ed 3 I thought I can just discard that two items

Already did the manti quest too

Man.. I have several t3 t4 foods too

[vernal lion]

yea you MUST discard the map

[weak gazelle]

yeah it need second part of the map to kill it

[dry skiff]

ye
map needed to be gone

ball is optional, but its easier to get end3 without it

[vernal lion]

tbh the ending 3 is easy because you don't need to care about catapult or fireball dude

[dry skiff]

its more of the boss just have no gimmick

self healing is nothing

[vernal lion]

the boss is just like Bloodknight

[dry skiff]

[vernal lion]

if you don't kill fast enough, you will stay with him FOREVER

[dry skiff]

atleast bloodnight has a stun

[tropic valve]

dang I tried schwarz solo RA (no HQ)

almost made it

but the shieldguard raid has aoe damage which actually breaks the structures comprising the Schwarz lane

it was the last raid before boss too

[vernal lion]

Demolitionist

[dry skiff]

can't u just use the healing support item

ahh

i tot u meant schwartz tile die

[vernal lion]

the red demolitionist deals like 10% max hp of the firm platform lv.3

[tropic valve]

yeah

one of the few enemies that fortify T2 actually struggles to tank

why isn't there a fortify T3

[dry skiff]

just spam t2 forti

[tropic valve]

they break really fast

wait maybe the strat

is to strategically place T2 fortify

so it blocks exactly 5 defenders/shieldguards

so ONLY the demos pass

[sonic willow]

Kinda weird to use platform to tank other enemies will change path

[tropic valve]

then after the demos die to Schwarz

I release the others

holy duck I think that might work
