strategy

[cosmic thicket]

how's it going so far

[radiant plinth]

actually got 378
in theory 387
copium 393

[cosmic thicket]

damn

best of luck

[real jacinth]

Penance heaven

12 block charge

[frozen cedar]

mudrock shield is pretty good in that chapter too

didn't try penance there because pretty sure she wasn't released when that chapter came out

[lapis hornet]

yeah mud can solo that stage

not 100% reliable tho

[deft badger]

ok nvm forget the pic... i should learn to read

[radiant plinth]

real question

do yall know the size of a defense crusher's hitbox

[glass monolith]

I'm not Rainchan

[tidal sedge]

The only possible motivation for that question is some sort of cursed strat. Unfortunately I don't know much about enemy hitboxes.

[crisp bolt]

quick and easy 600 so I never have to touch this again

Finally my last past event stage

(Skill issue for the screenshot)

Hilarious how worked better with few operators.

[neon dragon]

dead chat

[turbid badge]

@formal moss

its hoshiguma above chong

[formal moss]

guide pls

[turbid badge]

leak last 2 rockets

[formal moss]

ah ok

is this just afk?

[turbid badge]

Yea

Dont need to do anything

Its like 5 mins

[formal moss]

what risks

[turbid badge]

can afk if u want to stall last 2 robots

yeah im looking rn

[latent anvil]

teta pro do I do weedy or rosa first

[formal moss]

does this team work

[turbid badge]

ok so

iirc it got way easier with day 3 risks

but what i did was full afk with my full setup complete

after hotting chong 5times

u have gunny?

gummy?

raised

if ur struggling u can sub some atk risks

for these

eh should work, you have mlynar
healing couldd be rough cuz only 1 guardian

theres uhh liskarm there but

Id use s1 if shes the frontline tank

hmm let me replicate without 2 guardians

[turbid badge]

ah nvm

could try a burst strategy thh

tbh

my e1 blitz gettin ate

hmm u have blemi

cuz no mod ill take mine off

ok blemi works

u have to use a NG cage tho

to bait doro attack

cuz its not a hoshiguma

really takes the afk out of my mouth

zable u got shining?

[polar crane]

yes I have shining

[turbid badge]

with blemi mod she ez tank the power gundam

nvm dorothy taps her

this is really a brick gaming

if u have surtr

you can Surtr the gundam.

[proud drift]

Wtf kinda powerful god being is it that not even a modded blebi can tank

[turbid badge]

well

this is saria ng boosted skalter healing rocket gundam and power gundam too

smd her defense isnt cough cough 1.5k

[proud drift]

The more I read about pinchout strats the worse the gamemode sounds

[turbid badge]

ok

This should work for you maybe

blemi has no mod

cuz they dont have her mod

[turbid badge]

well well well

i found a conclusion

dont borrow skalter, borrow a maxed hoshi,

[gray stone]

Is this 600

I went for the stall approach and took me like 15-30 minutes for the successful clear

[long quiver]

I have completed most of is3 but struggle with is2 normal difficulty (I usually only manage to beat the first boss) any general tips you give me for is2?

[gray stone]

Yeah, instant E2 squad and a good carry

[proud drift]

Depends on what you struggle with?

[turbid badge]

tryna downgrade the afk clear

turns out i either lose too much dps and make it not afk ( using surtr and mlynar )

or loose too much healing which forces me to die

i see the good in hoshiguma now

[foggy grove]

[turbid badge]

yeah saw her as a basically never used side grade to my nian.

[spark sinew]

||you were right||

[vernal lion]

PO is jover

[gleaming lodge]

Not the Hoshi shilling please...

[glass monolith]

You get into hole, and you get into hole, and you get into hole, No wait not civili**(beep)**an.

[proud drift]

If no Nian, why not Hoshi

[polar crane]

he did not pay tax

[glass monolith]

Ambriel tax evasion skin soon

[pliant furnace]

what event is this

[vernal lion]

SSS

[polar crane]

new sss is out?

cool some more module block

[glass monolith]

Yes. On CN. Get back to 1-7 mines

[polar crane]

I play cn

[gleaming lodge]

3 elbows woman

[latent monolith]

unironical tsukinogi usage

[frozen cedar]

No her arm is just broken

[red cosmos]

What team should I use?

[vital arrow]

map where

[latent anvil]

Heart surging flame

[vital arrow]

is that the pompeii stage

idr doing that stage

[red cosmos]

Yes

[vital arrow]

if you're fine with borrowing

jaye solos pompeii

[tidal sedge]

It's not Pompeii yet

[vital arrow]

its not?

[red cosmos]

its pompeii

[vital arrow]

which one is it

[red cosmos]

I tried use trashtr and she couldn't kill him

[foggy grove]

pompei has high res

[fiery marsh]

Jaye > sutr fr

[foggy grove]

pompei doesn't appear on ex tho

[proud drift]

Mf really called surtr trash

[spark sinew]

did you forget to activate skill

[proud drift]

Idk how different strength is in CC pompeii and event pompeii

But if your ops die you should prob consider some healers

Or alternatively have Jaye solo it

[spark sinew]

I'm very doubtful of surtr not soloing it

[cinder pike]

Surtr comes with built-in res ignore

[lapis hornet]

you wouldn't have used jaye on cc pompeii lul

[latent monolith]

There is no pompeii in OF EX 5

Or indeed OF EX as a whole

[spark sinew]

cc pompeii is just leak city

[latent monolith]

[spark sinew]

unless you're doing max and that max has 1hp risk

[proud drift]

damn didn’t know surtr has 70 res ignore

That’s kinda strong

If no external factors come in

Surtr does approx 1.6-1.7k per hit to pompeii

Pompeii has 40k hp

I can imagine her not killing it tbh

[glass monolith]

She has enough res ignore to be OP AF

[proud drift]

772 atk, 330% from skill m3, divided by 50% because pompeii has 70res so surtr makes it 50

772 times 4.3 times 0.5

Maybe if you drop her at max range she can do enough hits

Cuz what I can imagine happens is the guy drops her facetank on pompeii

[weak gazelle]

so toddi was too strong for Manfred huh

[vernal lion]

ft. Shamare

[weak gazelle]

shamare just for her mod bonus

the last doll just to make texas survive Man swing

[glass monolith]

"mod bonus" of your team not fucking dying to fred attacking 2 targets at once

[vernal lion]

[weak gazelle]

a reason why texas there so Man focus solely on her
(mainly to croissant before but she didnt survive long enough)

[lapis hornet]

surtr fell off?!

can't even solo boss from 4 yrs ago doomed unit

[gleaming lodge]

Surtr can't solo a boss with 70 RES

[cosmic thicket]

needs res ignore pot

[vernal lion]

is that pot 5?

kinda admit that GG and Surtr are 2 op that importantly need 2 talent pots

[glass monolith]

Or quit trust farming EX stages

[vernal lion]

do mod farming instead

[proud drift]

Surely the pots will help and are useful

(2% damage boost if target has >20 res)

[spark sinew]

i think p3 clears

as long as you don't block pompeii

[proud drift]

It’s like 50 more dmg per hit

[spark sinew]

there's a tiny problem if you want to truly solo surtr though: pompeii goes out of range at the last moments

[proud drift]

Ig p5 surtr overall would do approx 70 dmg more per hit

20 hits and that’s 1.4k

It can be noticeable in a solo scenario

[vernal lion]

instead of solo-ing, just add a fucking buff for her, or debuff on boss lol

[spark sinew]

surtr is kinda ass to buff

[vernal lion]

and castle just works

[spark sinew]

outside of the usual aak

[proud drift]

Well the guy’s main complaint was surtr is trash cuz she couldn’t kill pompeii, but in fact, she can almost solo it

[vernal lion]

she can, but that is when you whale for her

[proud drift]

Yeah, pots add up to a lot in a longer scenario

Cringe ass p2w game

(/s before I get ass blasted)

[spark sinew]

tbf, a lot of ops gain a lot
mly gains so much from pots

[proud drift]

It’s mostly that the pots are only noticeable if they spend, say, an entire skill duration hitting the same target

[spark sinew]

you would definitely see the difference if you try to attempt some low op shit that cn did

but without pots

[proud drift]

Naturally

But in an average player scenario where you take idk

[spark sinew]

but also AK is very mild with it, compared to other gachas

[proud drift]

6 6*

[spark sinew]

cough cough hoyo

[proud drift]

You won’t notice the pots

[spark sinew]

like holy shit

[proud drift]

Unless its nightingale tanking

[lapis hornet]

the one time I noticed ng pots making a dif was in uh

cc6 I think? idr exactly

[proud drift]

Weren’t multiple high risk ccs nightingale pot gates

Where arts was involved

[vernal lion]

croc caster with arts dmg?

cc6 is crocodile

[lapis hornet]

ya I know idr which one it was exactly

I mean max might be gated idk I'm not a whale with everything max pot so I usually try max -1

[proud drift]

Didn’t cc10 also have ng tank freddy

[fast basin]

cc10 has pot gate for ng

cc6 idk cus i only did 32

cc10 ng pot gate was for low ops afaik

[vernal lion]

they gave this mf a large atk range

and 2 of them coming out, and you know what happened next

[fast basin]

cc6 is a nightmare cus of infiltrator tbh

croc is more like aggro management

[vernal lion]

infiltrator and brave croc

[lapis hornet]

10 was doable without ng pot iirc

maybe for 6 op or some shit idr

[vernal lion]

we have invisible brave croc iirc

[fast basin]

brave invis, and ash cant cycle fast enough for them

max is suzu mudrock stuff iirc

[spark sinew]

crocs do arts damage?

[lapis hornet]

anyway I was just saying 99.9% of players won't ever notice pot dif lul

[fast basin]

brave is phys, shaman is arts

[spark sinew]

their melee is physical at least i think

hmm

[vernal lion]

they are still annoying if they coming in a horde

just like that Manfield event

[fast basin]

ch 11?

wait

mansfield event is jesselton right

[vernal lion]

yes

we only have daily map

[fast basin]

that cc daily map is obnoxious

with the invis risk

[lapis hornet]

I remember prison daily as p easy lol

[fast basin]

doing max on them is dogshit as far as i remember

maybe i skill issue'd

[lapis hornet]

just sa them ez

one time I just leaked the two big chainball dudes

unless you were tryna do some 2 op

[fast basin]

2 op was kal mountain iirc

[lapis hornet]

otherwise don't remember that map among the harder ones

ya I remember a 2 op with kal once but it was pot gated

[fast basin]

and its leaking stuff with mountain disabling s2 or smth

[lapis hornet]

p2w game smh

the ones I remember as consistently tough rn were like uh

cc5 and the w map

[fast basin]

i dont even remember anything at all

maybe ufo map also

and east armory

[vernal lion]

still remember that 2 drone maps

[gray stone]

Ah yes

W(eedy) map

[vernal lion]

when you remember W bomb is truly a nuclear bomb

and Mudrock being chill with her own lane

[lapis hornet]

there's also the earlier dailies when most ppl didn't have cracked rosters lol

like uh slug one, high rise, yeah east armory

pyrite was always fun

cc2 when they put in the sp risk which they loved to do

[gray stone]

Abandoned High Rise was such an ass map

[vernal lion]

the slug map

and spider

fuck that

[gray stone]

Also there's the Plaza map

With DP down tags

Making Siege unironically good

[gleaming lodge]

If it didn't have that cringe tile ban you could just put Hoshi in front and do the funny

Also, I still laugh at how beta had 2 daily maps, but they still had them rotate daily

[frozen cedar]

I dont mind poo ui that much, i just mind they expected us to select 100 from the categories and they weren't sorted in a way to make that not a chore

[radiant plinth]

DAMNIT

[crystal cargo]

Would this work for this annihilation

I borrowed thorns

It did not work

[radiant plinth]

f

[radiant plinth]

all 350 crushers killed

[turbid badge]

angina gold cert real

[gleaming lodge]

Damn
Nice stuff

[frozen cedar]

post team if you want help

[bleak hill]

Yo I was able to finish one cc today ^^

[bleak hill]

I got a 4star to e2 as u told me, took a while to farm the last mats due ti sanity

[crystal cargo]

I didn’t use Ethan

[cosmic thicket]

what's lapp doing
also 2 vanguards for an anni is unnecessary

[crystal cargo]

I took my normal team to anni

[cosmic thicket]

yeah it's better to modify slightly simply bc it's a different type of stage

[crystal cargo]

My other ops I didn’t use

I wanted use Lapp and thorns aimed up to kill everything before I learned there were splash casters at bottom

[tidal sedge]

Put him on one of the floating platforms in the bottom left section (bring at least a couple of medics and a caster)

[crystal cargo]

Yeah I beat it

[red cosmos]

I need help, I am in rhodes Island channel

someone just entered and got out

[turbid badge]

[peak cloak]

[red cosmos]

I finally got it

after 20 trie

[vernal lion]

truly eng can't read moment

[radiant plinth]

391 kills

so close

[proud drift]

is it a world first or has someone done it already

[latent anvil]

think ima grab

or maybe not

[timid schooner]

NO NO NO NO DONT WALK IN NOOOOOOO

[golden merlin]

Let's her in, Rhodes lack 6* art guard

[frozen cedar]

tank her with like hoshi, she shouldn't get thru

[bleak hill]

Pain

[radiant plinth]

Dam

[timid schooner]

pain

[frozen cedar]

judging by the lack of chevrons e0 only?

[radiant plinth]

the one and only

[quartz cliff]

could u technically beat the game with e0 only?

[crisp bolt]

someone probably has done it

but it requires more rarity abuse than normal

as in you'd probably need specific ops with pots

[quartz cliff]

thx, no more explaining needed, boutta restart the game, beat it with starter characters and then do it again with e0

[latent monolith]

Everything until chapter 8 has been done if you include H stages

Anni 3 has not been done yet, as you can see ironcobra is trying it

But these clears require a lot of limiteds and stuff

Not really something you can do on a new acc

[quartz cliff]

hmm

[heady garden]

was it chapter 7 that you need amiya guard to finish?

[latent monolith]

8

[heady garden]

ah okay

[quartz cliff]

lets just see how far we can go with e0 basic characters

[little fractal]

Need Squad and Strat suggestions for H10-1
Currently what I'm trying to do is balance top and mid to take out Manfred w Canon but it's not paning out my units get overwhelmed when chain casters arrive

My build ops below not including Czery, and Reed Alt

[nova wing]

Have lane holders at top and bottom. Defenders+ healers to bait cannons on mid

You can also borrow a kaltsit to duel Manfred

[little fractal]

Oh, yea def borrow her since true damage

[nova wing]

I tried Yato and texalter on Manfred but it's wasting alot dp and his damn dodges

You'd better use them for top and bottom leaks

[little fractal]

Good call

[nova wing]

While monster died during duels with Manfred use defenders to stall while baiting cannon fire

If you have extra deployment slots try to add some debuff with caster burst on Manfred. But watch out for cannon range tho

Maybe SA can help a little for the redeployment cycle of defenders and monster

Good luck

[little fractal]

Hmm SA s2 moment :V make him a lane holder

[high shadow]

im trying to use cliffhearts s2 a second time on m8-6 and it genuinely just won't let me use the skill twice??? is this a known bug or do i just misunderstand something?

im just going Insane trying to keep all the shielders alive

[crisp bolt]

I hated that challenge so much

[high shadow]

im malding bc i've had like

5 good runs that get ruined

because i try to activate cliffhearts skill

and it just, doesn't

if need be i'll try to raise rope but it's so strange

[crisp bolt]

the only way I managed to do it was using saria s3

[little fractal]

Update, 2 stared it, got the Heidi token, I am not returning

Thanks for the advice

[high shadow]

the berserkers ruin me

ifrit and saria are the GOATs

wait can the shielders be healed??

[crisp bolt]

no

unless for some reason skalter/ange/perfumer works

[foggy grove]

regen works yeah

they can also be buffed

so stuff like castle/gamiya/etc works

[high shadow]

its not even that cliffhearts s2 won't go off a second time

after a certain point it just decides Not To

i got to 70/77 kills and it just won't activate

[cinder pike]

Lol, I just used Hoshi + 3 medics for that stage

[high shadow]

im just borrowing a throns

i've decided that its simply not worth the effort do to without support units

[cinder pike]

Hoshi S2 (def module) + Warf + shining + honey

[crisp bolt]

friston 3 carry?

[cinder pike]

if it helps you, this is what I brought for that stage

[crisp bolt]

tachanka

[full finch]

wtf the wrong mizuki module

[cinder pike]

the idea was to use mizuki top lane to deal with the casters as well

and have ines stop them from walking past

kinda worked

was very scuffed

[crisp bolt]

would ethan module be more reliable?

[cinder pike]

I still need them to kill tho, mizuki can't take the caster harrass

[full finch]

...maybe use mountain

[cinder pike]

mountain kinda dies, tho that might be a mountain diff

[full finch]

add medic

[crisp bolt]

shining not enough?

[cinder pike]

because My mountain is E2 1 S2M3

[full finch]

bruh

[vital arrow]

Lv1

Skill issue

[full finch]

more like XP issue

[vital arrow]

Lv1 lane plug is just asking to die

[full finch]

[cinder pike]

its not even an exp issue

[vital arrow]

Its just skill issue

[full finch]

so it's just skill issue

[cinder pike]

it kinda is, ch'en is also in a defective state

[vocal leaf]

try it again in the future, if you had schwarz you could kill manfred in 10 seconds @tropic valve would be proud

[cinder pike]

surprised that penance has enough health to tank manfried

[little fractal]

I do not have Schwartz

[latent monolith]

Penance ehp on max shield is like 14k

[cinder pike]

tho I guess I also don't use penance so

[latent monolith]

Actually that's prob lowballing

I wouldn't use her to tank Manfred, but cannon is fine as long as there are fodder

[crisp bolt]

A Schwarz is all you need

[vocal leaf]

penance can tank the cannon very easily with her shield but you gotta kill the cars fast otherwise she will have to wait a lot to charge her s3

[cinder pike]

about 4.3k real hp, 300% max ehp is like 13k + 4k hp

thats pretty nutty

[vocal leaf]

now imagine when she gets her module

[latent monolith]

Doesn't her module not buff her shield max hp

Yeah it doesn't buff the max only gain

75% hp initial, 12% HP every kill

Up from 50 and 10

[cosmic thicket]

she'll get to triple dip the HP buffs from mod though

[latent monolith]

Oh yeah

[tropic valve]

so true

[crisp bolt]

yeah HP buff also affects her barrier as well

hence why Aak s2 on her is really funny

[cinder pike]

I kinda dissapointed that H10-2 is easier then H10-1

but also I did take the drones out of play with ines so idk

[blissful wren]

So my currently only 6* Medics are Lumen and Shining, which should I build?

[spark sinew]

shining can work with s2 sl7 for afk stuff
lumen wants s3m3, assuming you want to continue to invest

(Also eyja medic is coming soon, so...)

[blissful wren]

Ah that’s right. Thank you

[tropic valve]

yeah Manfred doesn't regain dodge fast in H10-2

[spark sinew]

oh wait sorry i misread
thought you already e2d them

you can just wait for eyja, if you're planning to pull (and even if not, we'll have 24 free rolls)
just raising someone like Ptilo will suffice for now

[frozen cedar]

...how did you get thaat much XP tickets without farming, and why did you farm that many................is this your e0 account?

[cinder pike]

Time

[frozen cedar]

yeah but why dont you use them?

[cinder pike]

https://www.krooster.com/u/Flipblade

I use them, I just don't level allot of units

[spark sinew]

lvl1 with m6 just screams "i don't level stuff because i want to", since it's so cheap to level ops

especially in cases like Chen when she just...does damage

[cinder pike]

I was not going to use her anyways, so it was funny to M6 her.

[spark sinew]

oh god

interesting choices in mastery/moduling for sure

[frozen cedar]

boy has 4 limited units unleveled, though specter alter is skill level 4

[frozen cedar]

I mean personally my account has a ton of units leveled purely for their paradox sim

[cinder pike]

ok, I am not that stupid, let me do a full update later on

It is just a pain to update details for 100+ operators

[turbid badge]

m9 ling is good wym

[cinder pike]

There is a module that is not showing

[latent anvil]

Ling s3m3 is especially good for 4-9 solos

[turbid badge]

use s2

s3 rng too real

[vernal lion]

Exalter mod is kinda broken

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQRT17NHZ3o&ab_channel=Storn

[foggy grove]

the mod is really good yeah
unless you are clown like arckchive

[glass monolith]

I'm clown who simply don't care for him

[deft badger]

we ain't getting the mod tomorrow -.-

it comes with eyja right?

[foggy grove]

jp getting it

so we are

[somber stone]

Imagine we don’t

[deft badger]

we will see tomorrow as far i know we don't

if we do i am happy

shouldn't gladiia record restore come with exe/alter?

i don't see a timer

[scarlet fulcrum]

EN will follow JP for sure

[glass monolith]

Yostar hate that one guy with p5 Gladiia

[glass monolith]

You doubt Yostar ability to desync timeline even harder?

[spark sinew]

jp are getting mod?

[foggy grove]

yeah we don't follow cn to a tee sometime we get it early
but generally we have the same content as jp

that pic aboves is mod news

[scarlet fulcrum]

They will also add Glad RR on 21

[foggy grove]

artificier,geek and reaper mod

[dark glade]

The en notif has a mod update too

[spark sinew]

well...if i could read jp i would play jp

[scarlet fulcrum]

yeah i just checked, same

[spark sinew]

so weird how they put reaper module here
this is the first time we're not following cn, right

[scarlet fulcrum]

Nope

[foggy grove]

nah

[dark glade]

By mod release or timeline

Because our timeline are so fucked

[spark sinew]

mod release

new module branches always were released on the same events as on cn remember dorothy event delay uproar? marksman modules delayed

[dark glade]

i dont because im not playing the game at that point and just watching kukki video that timeline is fucked

[lethal dragon]

Nope we have prior examples

[scarlet fulcrum]

U forgor enforcer, no mod because no rerun yet

[spark sinew]

what about enforcer?

[scarlet fulcrum]

well most ppl didn't realize it

[spark sinew]

you couldn't get his module while rerun ended, but shop was open, which was...yeah

[spark sinew]

care to remind me, actually curious

i see what you meant with enforcer
I was thinking actually new module branches being added earlier than in their intended event

[scarlet fulcrum]

It doesn't follow CN

[thick folio]

Guys need help with this map. Cant figure out how to stop the big guys that stuns

[glass monolith]

Well killing it works

[dark glade]

Dont you just... Spawncamp it

[spark sinew]

unrelated, but level your e2 to at least 20

[somber stone]

Silence him?

[dark glade]

[thick folio]

All E2s?

And is my line up good?

[glass monolith]

Cost per level up reset with promotion and you gain 0 stats from just promoting

[spark sinew]

can leave myrtle at 1
others wouldn't mind more stats

[vernal lion]

defender crusher is weak to arts dmg

he doesn't has too much hp, just big def, so arts dmg is solution here

Shirayuki s2 does have 70% arts dmg from atk so you can try her

[dark glade]

unrelated but using myrtle s2 and shaw as aoe guard based

[somber stone]

Borrow texalt

[verbal badger]

how can i clear annilation 3 with these raised ops

i can always raise my unraised ops before coming back if the stage is too hard for my current units

thorns + qb should hold mid right?

its just the drones are annoying

acc to help eyja s3 will have too high sp cost

[vernal lion]

I know why you can't clear with those

[verbal badger]

why? ik im not putting as much resources into 4/5* as i should

[vernal lion]

nah, your medic

[verbal badger]

i was using silence + gummy for top lane and lancet + perfumer for bot

i can raise another ST med like lumen or warf

[vernal lion]

so what made you fail

[verbal badger]

the drones

[vernal lion]

ofc it's the drone

[dark glade]

Its thorning time

[verbal badger]

this was kinda what i had

[little orchid]

why not just put mlynar in the center of right side? shining should still be able to reach him there, and he can delete drones or whatever when they spawn

[verbal badger]

i tried that, the waves dont come all at once

so like he hits a couple then goes off skill

then the drone wave comes back up again

[thick folio]

All right and should I go with Shaw or do I need another operator?

[verbal badger]

maybe im just bad idk

[spark sinew]

why are you not using mlynar

also qb pointing top is overkill

meanwhile your mid and bot are not defended at all

[vernal lion]

you need to borrow someone to kill duo bosses

[small spindle]

That is a lot of e2

[thick folio]

Any suggestions?

[vernal lion]

Texas alter

[keen rain]

So where are you even leaking? Bot where only gg hits?

[verbal badger]

yea

[somber falcon]

You opted for friston even though you have blemi?

[verbal badger]

no deployment left

hit limit

[glass monolith]

[verbal badger]

ill just come back with thorns and eyja, my dumbass cant handel all these drones

[somber falcon]

Suzu ain't doing shit there

[vernal lion]

you won't expect to tank the drone and ballista with your ranged op tho

[somber stone]

Suzu 💀

[ornate pond]

spalter + ines seems overkill

[glass monolith]

Let him cook

[vernal lion]

ranged op may tank the ballista but not the drone, you should put someone to bait the drone attack

[verbal badger]

hmm ok

who do u suggest

[verbal badger]

spalter to block/dps, ines to actucally hit the air

thats why if i raise thorns i can just plot him there

[vernal lion]

Exu and GG are fine here, your problem is later

[little orchid]

back in my day, i think i used matterhorn s2 to bait/tank drones 🤔 but you could simply just borrow NG and let the cage draw all drone aggro

[vernal lion]

a bunch of defender crusher and spec op caster

[somber stone]

Does exu not hit air

[verbal badger]

something like this maybe?

[somber stone]

I feel like lancet will die

[verbal badger]

blemi should be able to keep exu alive if fed enemies since shes on s1

i think

lancet is just there because i had extra space in squad

if bot leaks bc gg isnt enough i click mlynar or qb s3

[spark sinew]

I would deploy qb to the right but eh

the bigger question is what's killing you

mlynar feels too far back as well

[verbal badger]

we'll find out this run

i kinda always just leaked a drone or 2 bot lane and then proceeded to restart

[spark sinew]

this teams is super overkill that's why i'm curious

either way, even if we don't touch the comp

[keen rain]

Obv its just gg not doing enough dmg bot thats leaking

[spark sinew]

gum to the right of gg is better

[keen rain]

She focuses on some ground unit for a bit instead of a drone and boom leak

[somber stone]

She’s gonna die to casters

[spark sinew]

exu swap places with lancet, then lancet swaps place with perfurmer

[spark sinew]

i was typing you use shining instead of perfurmer there

same with qb and mlynar, move them to the right

[verbal badger]

welp we're at 300

[spark sinew]

i think some enemies spawn here very early on

[verbal badger]

hopefully nothing is too bad at the end

[spark sinew]

but that's the only thing that you need to keep in mind

[keen rain]

They spawn right above where spalter is iirc

[spark sinew]

perfect then

[verbal badger]

325, nothing has gone too wrong yet but gg/exu has gotten very close to dying

[spark sinew]

||did you deploy exu after blem ||

[verbal badger]

im not sure, but the drones are targetting her so i dont think so?

[somber stone]

Who is her

[turbid badge]

lancets not dieing?

oh they have a shining

I would of swapped their positions ngl

[verbal badger]

exu

[spark sinew]

[small spindle]

[verbal badger]

welp, looks like runs over

[somber stone]

[spark sinew]

you need to brush up on mechanics a bit

[keen rain]

[somber stone]

Reason frds are good in anni:

[turbid badge]

should had mlynar more up

[small spindle]

Need a nuh'uh button for those crushers

[spark sinew]

idk anything recent though, most that i remember is Dreamy's vid but i mean mechanics didn't change

[turbid badge]

is that spalter e1?

[verbal badger]

i can prob try keeping surtr in team

so when they do leak

[keen rain]

Probably not modded spalter

[verbal badger]

i can press delete

[verbal badger]

unit lvls are up here

[turbid badge]

wtf

why didnt u bring her

[small spindle]

Keep in mind you might want surtr to be ready for the "red crusher" at the end

[turbid badge]

try to afk woth half assed team smhsmh

but yes bring surtr

id rather use spalter s3 than 2

cuz shes just gonna get stunned

[spark sinew]

That said it won't help with crushers much

[turbid badge]

and uhh no mod so u gonna do no damage

eh you have surtr its fine

[spark sinew]

about targetting: units in this anni target last deployed op

[turbid badge]

[spark sinew]

so deploy exu earlier than your melees

[verbal badger]

ahh

that would help a lot

[small spindle]

It's a basic game mechanic btw

[somber stone]

Or mlynar if he’s in their range

Taunt gaming

[small spindle]

Ramged enemies will target your latest deployed operator in their range

[turbid badge]

the drones will target mlynar when in range yeah he has taunt for e2 talent

thats why you deploy your defenders last/ tankiest ex, your qiubai etc if possible to relieve medic pressure

as ranged units ur using are squishy

and they being hit by the ballista and arts drone not fun

[verbal badger]

how would i stop this tho?

just prep something behind?

oops wrong comment

but uh

the img below it

[turbid badge]

Surtr?

or you can try spalter s3

it does good aoe damage

[verbal badger]

would surtr not go to sleep too?

[small spindle]

Texalter would be ideal. But i guess you are trying to get an auto right?

[verbal badger]

yea

[somber stone]

Mlynar in front of exu to kill them?

[spark sinew]

with this team you can auto current anni psure

why do you want to auto anni3

[verbal badger]

current ani too hard, i die at like 50th enemy

[small spindle]

The crusher stun ability has a cooldown iirc. You cam silence them btw, so they can't stun you

[verbal badger]

oh?

so i can just raise lappy to e1

and bring him for top

[turbid badge]

they stun after 2nd attack

[small spindle]

Uh, lappy need e2 to perma silence enemies

[verbal badger]

ah that sucks

[turbid badge]

and have a attack interval of 3.5 seconds.

you should have a window to kill them using surtr or spalter s3

they have 0 res for surtr soo

[verbal badger]

i mean i got pretty close i think its just some small stuff at the end

ill try with surtr

[turbid badge]

if u really want to be braindead

[verbal badger]

and mlynar a bit more in front

so he can kill elites early

[turbid badge]

just move mlynar up one

[verbal badger]

yea

thats what i was thinking

[turbid badge]

he can deal with that lane than

basc just put mlynar behind blemishine

[small spindle]

If your problem is the top wave at around 370 when the crusher and drone squad pulled up, you can deploy a mlynar near their idle point and clear around 3 crusher at the start up top

[verbal badger]

ive gotten reccomendation to put mlynar like 3 diffrent places now

😭

ill just experiment, i get orundum anyways for just doing it

[small spindle]

https://youtu.be/m-pKohpNMOo?si=KgoW4Jp-2Qymmx5U

You can use the moment around 4:34 as an example

[spark sinew]

ah, the memories

[small spindle]

You place mlynar there while waiting for the last mob before the crusher squad arrives and charge his skill

This way you will only have to think about bottom crushers

[somber stone]

Just surtr it

[ornate pond]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E32T-tMAdbk&t=406s

following this should be helpful

[somber stone]

Huh ambriel

[glass monolith]

Ambriel skin soon

[scarlet fulcrum]

Mlynar like decoration with that team on thumbnail

[vernal lion]

dude really said get that E2 Mlynar

[random widget]

:>

[crude oak]

Exalter worth E2 90, or is 70 ok?

I guess he needs module out of the box (glad we're getting it), so guess I'm wondering if it's worth that investment

[spark sinew]

70 is always ok, but you probably won't regret 90

[crude oak]

so, who you want?

[spark sinew]

hell, 60 is okay, depending on the content you do

[crude oak]

most of my 60's are E2 70, unless I don't use them much, then minimum is 60

[spark sinew]

I'd say try him a bit (with module though) and see if you like his gameplay

[crude oak]

but some talk about him like he's the next Surtr

[spark sinew]

~~probably better if you do challenge clears ~~

[crude oak]

yeah, he'll get a module if I get him, I'm more focused on Eyjalter and Typhon

I don't even use La Pluma much these days, so I'm honestly hesitant with him

[spark sinew]

they're very different i feel

[deft badger]

well there isn't much to pick from

[spark sinew]

like, pluma is very squishy, and her range being smaller she has way less applications

[deft badger]

hope for suzu and lets go

the only funny part that's on my main

i know i complained about not getting them but that doesn't mean i should get 2 in a month now lol

[crude oak]

exactly, almost requires Skalter

[crude oak]

good luck

TO tags net me pots these days, and the fun part is when you get a Saria, despite her being Pot 6 already

[deft badger]

-.-

[spark sinew]

nice

go get 4 more and do mizuki d15 relicless

[deft badger]

used her one time and wasn't impressed by her, don't like her drones

don't even really know how to use her

[crude oak]

I have her, don't use her

[spark sinew]

use s1

[crude oak]

even got her module on release

[spark sinew]

that said nowadays you can just nuke enemies

[crude oak]

S3 is my most used, but I see the benefit of S1

[spark sinew]

with s3 i believe second module is way better

s1 as well, depending on the usage

[crude oak]

well, I didn't realize at the time we'd be gated by blocks

otherwise I wouldn't have even bothered with her module at all (or Scene or Mayer)

[spark sinew]

heh
yeah idk why i mod2 some of my stuff either

[deft badger]

nvm i wanted kitsune..

[spark sinew]

i think the last time i used scene was pre module

and yet mine is mod2

[gleaming lodge]

Mag doesn't have a spot anymore

She fell off pretty hard with Ling

[ornate pond]

She very much does for optimizing 1-7

Ling too expensive for that

[proud drift]

Imagine farming 1-7 ever in life

[weak gazelle]

force to bring toddi no matter what cost me full slot roster
well at least having fun bully Man

[gleaming lodge]

Imagine not setting up a macro for 1-7

[turbid badge]

mag second module hard to use

i left my invis module lvl 2 because there are legitimate reasons to have lower invis time on drones (and u can just borrow mod 3 from a friend if u really need it )

[glass monolith]

[tidal sedge]

Will Degenbrecher be good in SSS like Irene?

[turbid badge]

Uhh

probably

Vanguard stacks are win

so

[latent anvil]

Probably better

Because her dmg

degenbrach dmg is kinda dum high

[turbid badge]

u dum high

[latent anvil]

[turbid badge]

wtf copy

[latent anvil]

[glass monolith]

(Jump into hole before civilians)

[latent anvil]

Teta you done d15 end4 yet

[turbid badge]

have you

[latent anvil]

I keep skill issue everything

No

[turbid badge]

first time i did it mizuki ate me

[latent anvil]

I never even got to the stage yet

Because my friend tell me to take free random e2 six star

[turbid badge]

[latent anvil]

Instead of free win

[turbid badge]

take ho ol

[latent anvil]

holyak suck

[glass monolith]

I did only d12 so far. At least i spawnkilled walmart Skullshutter

[turbid badge]

nopp

she good

can use for weightless

in mizuki stage

[latent anvil]

Okay she good but

Why tornado

[latent anvil]

Hit only one enemy

[turbid badge]

Idk become intern

[latent anvil]

And not go through anything

what kind tornado is that

[turbid badge]

imagine degen branch hit like chen one enemy at a Time

[latent anvil]

[turbid badge]

gravestone

[latent anvil]

Try click start

And Irene start

They are so op

Every single time I start a d15 run I lose 5 hp on first stage

no clue why

[glass monolith]

I know why, Because it is not synergism or whatever, otherwise you would just lose

[latent anvil]

Stmbiosiz is fine

Bad one is mtjtjal aid

[glass monolith]

Okay, on high D it is

I don't even mind shield boy dying, i mind 2 giga chads comming and leaving because i am not killing that

[latent anvil]

I mind

Every single flying enemy

And last twi

So -5

[tropic valve]

mai waifu

Vigna pog

[deft badger]

will the banner be up after the reset

or later when the event starts

[limpid siren]

After maintenance

[frozen cedar]

if you reset there will be 6 hours of maintenance you cannot log in

[turbid badge]

ah yes sss

and no i cant get gnosi module

oh wait

this one needs atleast one medic

[tropic valve]

Quercus trust

[turbid badge]

budget santalla

[limpid siren]

💪

[turbid badge]

ok doesnt work as well as planned

25%

for a second

[limpid siren]

the thing that really annoys me about pramanix module is that they didn't give its effect to kjera

[turbid badge]

yeah

[limpid siren]

25% chance for pramanix is cute, but it would have been really good for kjera

[turbid badge]

5 star second mod trust

[limpid siren]

second mod will fix vulcan

[frozen cedar]

vulcan needs correction?

[limpid siren]

yes

[lapis hornet]

do 5* get second mod

[turbid badge]

not yet

[latent monolith]

Surely Vulcan will be the first

Not like I'll use her anyways since I have both the 6 stars raised but still

[deft badger]

maintenance starts in 1 hour?

[limpid siren]

Should start in about 8h

[deft badger]

ahh that's the -7

never did understand the - + next to the time zone its a bit confusing xD

[spark sinew]

just remember server timezone for ak

[scarlet fulcrum]

Isnt that in elementary class?

[frozen cedar]

Check the pinned message in help

[deft badger]

we did just get a map with time zones

but didn't learn anything specific about it

[scarlet fulcrum]

Yeah

Idts

[deft badger]

i mean i get what it means but when u google utc -7 u get the UTC time

then do the counting

[scarlet fulcrum]

[deft badger]

that's why i did say its confusing just write down we start at 11 am UTC

[somber falcon]

just remember your timezone and count the diff

[deft badger]

nvm u have to write it together lol

[scarlet fulcrum]

Its their server time, the right thing to write tbh

[deft badger]

where does the server stand? US, Canada?

[scarlet fulcrum]

California

[latent monolith]

Alternatively just remember when the maintenance occurs because this happens like every month

[scarlet fulcrum]

That's it, nothing hard to do

[deft badger]

i am just hypped... 😄

its 4am i will see exe at 6pm

[rose root]

Theres maint tomorrow right?

[spark sinew]

during the next reset

[deft badger]

worst part i am on leave since today woke up 20min ago for whatever reason
zero plans for today and have to wait 14 hours for exe/alter

btw nice..

[tidal sedge]

Ouch

[spark sinew]

exealter mats are pain

like 8 polypreps

because they release his module at the same time

[spark sinew]

hopefully you're prepared on that front

[timid schooner]

tutorial:those panik laterano npc thingy can stand on those statue to reduce panik state
me:ok some stage dont have statue h o w

this is why i do not like escort stuff

[vernal lion]

Game: So be it...

[timid schooner]

what inside those thing lmao

is it very important stuff or smt that somehow -1 life for every boat destroy bruh

[tidal sedge]

how do i beat m8-6 cm

[vernal lion]

Rhodes Island's lunch

[spark sinew]

from the first glance the mechanic just exists to punish stall

[tidal sedge]

Fortress defenders help a lot on that stage.

[frozen cedar]

M8-6 CM is easier than M8-6 normal keeping all the tanky boys alive

[tidal sedge]

how

💀

[spark sinew]

he means you don't need to keep your "allies" alive anymore, so if you did the secret mission (assumption) then you should be fine
what's your current team and strat

[tidal sedge]

hol on

[tidal sedge]

NM for that one was a pain in the ass

ight nvm i did it

👍

Congrat

🫂

[spark sinew]

all credit to me, you're welcome

[tidal sedge]

i did aak'd horn

they got blasted

[vernal lion]

when you hit too fast, it becomes Sword Art

[turbid badge]

thats a weak mlynar!

[vernal lion]

weakest Mlynar belike

[scarlet fulcrum]

Weakest using mlynar real

[spark sinew]

swinging so fast you can't even see it

[sturdy crown]

How do I beat 6-16? I can kill frostnova but my ops keep getting frozen

[somber falcon]

position your ops better

[spark sinew]

[deft badger]

u know i am 😄

gave up counting btw, passed 2 weeks ago 1k pulls

[spark sinew]

not what i meant but sure, how would you not shoehorn your number of pulls

[spark sinew]

.

[deft badger]

what did u mean

[spark sinew]

mats for module and mastery and whatever

[deft badger]

didn't look what i need but i did farm the chips

[polar crane]

do you have lappland?

[deft badger]

so that i don't have to buy again the pack

lol

was hopping for some packs with and 10 rolls but nope

they are just going to give us a chip pack ofc to bait bots like me who forgot to farm chips

[spark sinew]

so funny cause

[deft badger]

and ofc they are going to release that op on a day u can't farm them

[spark sinew]

you can just farm chips during event

[deft badger]

i wanna e2 him today

[real jacinth]

does heidi restore mudrock and penance hp

[foggy grove]

all bard is

[deft badger]

if its passive then yes

[real jacinth]

theres other bards?

[foggy grove]

sora,heidi,skalter

[deft badger]

who is sora

[real jacinth]

oh spra

[deft badger]

xD

[real jacinth]

the jumping jellybean

[spark sinew]

suzu should

[real jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/sora-arknights-gif-26232967

[spark sinew]

that said if your penance is losing hp, it's almost over for her anyway

[real jacinth]

true!

shes thrashing these stages tho

the manfreid ones

the artillery is like totally irrelvant to her

LMAO

[deft badger]

i hope we are going to get a other 6 star bard in the future

[frozen cedar]

i mean, they went with ritualist for virtuosa, who is very music based.

[verbal badger]

kinda going into rest avenue blind here, would something like this work?

[verbal badger]

here are the ops level btw

[full finch]

there's saxophones, be aware

[proud drift]

how often does yato s2 get used vs s3

[full finch]

I only use yato S2

[proud drift]

hmm

[full finch]

S3 is still fine, but S2 is better

many would say M6 is worth

[proud drift]

I was mostly going off of wiki

and was wondering how often they get interchanged

[full finch]

sus

not sure why it's so highly rated

[proud drift]

has massive range potential, deals with DEF better, is invuln during it

ig

[verbal badger]

ok that was a lot harder than expected

[full finch]

makes sense

[verbal badger]

around 250 range when the saxo people start spawning in healers die and thus my team

[full finch]

yeah rest avenue is above average in difficulty for annihilation

the best carry is horn btw

[verbal badger]

i was told yesterday by some ppl in here that i could do it with my lvl

guess they lied

[full finch]

she covers like 2/3 of the map

[verbal badger]

ill come back when i raised more healers probably

[proud drift]

ppl tend to do laser like this

[verbal badger]

what do the lasers do?

[full finch]

it increases auto SP gain to normal levels

it's halved otherwise

[verbal badger]

ah

[proud drift]

shred golems resistances, make sax bros useless, Auto SP is normal

and some enemies deal a lot less damage

such as the casters

[full finch]

violin damage travels along them so remember to focus fire

this mf

[turbid badge]

atrocious

[proud drift]

also nice to have a dps ready near those with a laser on them so that the funny field can be destroyed

[verbal badger]

these are what i have like raised... do u guys think it might just to be better to come back later

or are my units around good enough lvls

[full finch]

is this first clear or for auto

[verbal badger]

ideally auto

but i have auto for annilation 3

so i dont have to do auto for this

but apparently acc to some ppl its more efficent or whatever because no rng issues?

idk

[full finch]

I mostly used the laser for blocking saxophones

and a little for debuffing golems
