I have been using Melanite s2 on most of the stages, and it's devastatingly effective at clearing crowds low to mid level enemies out from multiple lanes if you line up the flux right.

damn sheโ€™s thick

deft badger

i guess yes since u already have a e1 exe

oh i should do my monthly squad for catalyst

good thing I have farmed a fuck ton of rock, now just in time to use

Will: dude, what crime did I commit

peak cloak

Bill: u did put some pineapple pieces on a pizza.

deft nest
#

I ESCAPED THE TERROR

#

Should I get his token for -1 DP cost

vernal lion
#

it's your choice

#

if you use him

deft nest
#

I'm a noob so I might as well use him

limpid siren
#

i'd shy away from him

#

he's a very specific tool

#

young rosters benefit more from units that can be used in a wide variety of stages

#

for the tokens, they're fairly skippable since this is the rerun, the main reason to buy tokens on an event's debut is to guarantee some gold cert income when the event reruns

#

but now the only reason to pick them up is if you're certain you'll be using him

deft badger
#

she is one of the best free ops u can get

vernal lion
#

she's only best if you invest her fully tho

deft badger
#

at a point he will i guess, but yes u are right gladiia mod is just broken xD

#

i must say arknights has a really good sanity system, u know its good when u try other games out lol

vernal lion
#

the sanity system is when you have to come back after 12-13 hours

glass monolith
#

You mean something like - You actually drop material giving you feeling of acomplishment of used sanity while in other games you spend all energy toward single goal which takes 5-6 days and it is some cringe like upgrade skill from 7 to 8 out of 10?

deft badger
#

it feels like u are playing less compared to arknights where i spend hours wasting all of it

vernal lion
#

depending on gameplay

#

most games just take 30 minutes to 1 hour

deft badger
#

main reason i hate genshin

#

such a big world and u could be doing a lot of stuff but nah there is some stupid energy sistem in it

vernal lion
#

genshin is the combination of JRPG and sandbox

glass monolith
#

Screw it. It takes forever to run around doing dailies alone, then repeat same 20 second kill on domain get trash and leave for today (unless you need to climb each hill in game for ascend trash)

vernal lion
#

and you know JRPG just takes age to beat it

#

just like Persona series

deft badger
#

u don't really get to play much since its all capped

#

meh i don't care wow has a new expansion this year

#

POE 2 is coming out

#

so i will have something to play beside arknights ๐Ÿ˜„

vernal lion
#

go play AFK Arena

deft badger
#

i named wow and poe, u are telling me go play "AFK" arena lol

#

i clearly want something that is going to be engaging

glass monolith
peak cloak
#

i play genshin too, but after i get my main account to 60 and second one to 57, get bored. gameplay just all over again and feel like i'm not using my brain anymore.

main things that keep me playing is helping people in domains and new stories, also i'm kind of a secrets finder.

vernal lion
#

gaming is grinding

peak cloak
#

beside genshin and arknight, i dont play any gacha games, those two are enough for a busy worker like me

vernal lion
#

yea gacha is main reason why it takes lots of your time tho

#

you can just pause your Steam games but not gacha games

cosmic thicket
#

gacha game (derogatory)

glass monolith
#

AK, Limbus, HSR for me, same story, i can't play into games which need big daily commitment because i will physically burn out

cosmic thicket
#

i only play AK

polar crane
#

try nikke minusthumbsup

vernal lion
#

did try every gacha game, but Arknights is just something I only care for

cosmic thicket
#

nah nikke is gacha game derogatory

#

the only reason why i play ak is bc it's tower defense and has a reputation for being difficult

glass monolith
polar crane
cosmic thicket
#

if the gameplay is not challenging or interesting im not playing it

vernal lion
#

Arknights gives me hope, because strategy game is dying

peak cloak

#

lore and music is good tooAmiyaConcerned

cosmic thicket
#

idc about lore

#

and every gacha game fanbase says their music is good

glass monolith
#

Lore twist are quite good FrankaWheeze

vernal lion
#

tbh tho, I would like to play game just because of the present, not too much for lore

deft badger
#

poe 2 is going to be good

cosmic thicket
#

i was slightly excited by genshin's ccg but it's a complete clown fiesta

vernal lion
#

lore in game just gives the reason for gameplay and new characters

glass monolith
vernal lion
#

lore is just a "visual novel" kind of game

#

reading is good, but only if it interests you

#

and not much is good tho

#

that's the fact

deft badger
#

its challenging af u might even never learn to play it properly but the good thing u can do more then just pvp ๐Ÿ˜„

glass monolith
#

My main hates toward PoE:
Need to redo story from 0 each character (In Diablo 3 you do story once and then just level push all other characters in adventure)
Some content literally filter some builds, combined with imbalanced reward distrebution leading to cases when most rewarding can be something you both hate and can't do fast/at all

deft badger
#

i hate diablo with a passion especially after immortal and D4

#

wow is still good if u ask me wow is getting each year better, main reason people don't like it is because its time consuming and compared to like classic or TBC the raids are like 5-6 tiers harder then they have been couple years ago

#

but all other blizzard games are just ๐Ÿšฎ

deft nest
#

Too bad strategy is my favourite type of games and it's the one dying atm

peak cloak
#

best one, i bet.

deft badger
#

btw thats not true, they are not dying we just havent seen a good one

#

in the past years

celest bluff
#

I give up

#

Not gonna fight is3 ed4

foggy grove
#

it's dying

celest bluff
#

There are 2 type of games that get tagged strategy for some fucking reasons

deft badger
#

yeah ๐Ÿ˜„

celest bluff
#

RTS and tower defense

deft badger
#

RTS

celest bluff
#

RTS which already have strategy in it

vernal lion
#

ppl don't like RTS because it's much a war game

peak cloak
#

real time strategy and tower defense

#

yea , like HOI4

vernal lion
#

and have to think much, micro and macro management, etc...

deft badger
#

don't know about other people but i own 90% of the paradox game shop lol

vernal lion
#

just try COH1 and 2

celest bluff
#

Tf hoi4

#

Hoi4 is a map game

#

And people that value their time don't play map game

vernal lion
#

I would say it's a simulation

#

just like Civilization

celest bluff
#

There are RTS before command and conquer right

vernal lion
#

yes

deft badger
#

which one? one of the oldest i have been playing as a kid was warcraft but didn't try anything else after that i joined WoW in 2007 and kinder never left just recently started playing some strategy games

#

first warcraft was in 1994, i played W2 and W3

vernal lion
deft badger
#

have to google that wondering how that thing did look like lol

vernal lion
#

pixel

deft nest
#

I haven't seen a tower defense game in ages I need a quality one now

deft badger
#

bro 1981 i wasn't even born at that time lol

deft badger
#

that's how i found arknights was on google searching for tower defense games on phone

deft nest
#

I love tower defenses with a path that the enemies follow

#

I love paths

polar crane
#

like ballon td?exucurse

deft nest
#

yes, that map design

deft badger
#

have to take a look if i can find W3 with all the tower defense mods

celest bluff
#

The tower defense I like would be

#

You have a map that okay have some terrain features but you can control where the enemies would go

#

Basically Reclamation Algorithm

#

The concept already existed but not many game do that

latent monolith
#

The only games I remember doing that were flash games

celest bluff
#

Fuck

latent monolith
#

But if you are looking at non flash td games there's like btd6 (although the earlier ones were flash), pvz and ak

deft nest
#

I dislike how many ppl do "tower defense" games where you have to defend a circle and the enemies come in the center
I dislike that level design on so many levels

celest bluff
#

What even is that design

deft nest
#

you have to place troops at your base, which is in the center

celest bluff
#

But can I build a maze myself

deft nest
#

no

latent monolith
#

Something like the perfect tower? I consider that to be a different kind of game tbh, it's plays kinda differently to regular td games

deft nest
#

It's straignt to your base

#

Free space

deft badger
#

do u wanna play it solo or online but i bet that thing even still works today

deft nest
#

I love games with a path that enemies follow because you can interact with the background and make it interesting too

deft badger
#

i don't know if u ever played it but w3 is still a option saw now u can even find it online lol

latent monolith
#

bosses/racing on mobile FiaDed

celest bluff
#

There is Taur tower defense but that is more like a top down shooter

deft nest
#

I love deathrun games too (they have a path, yes I adore paths) but the deathrun genre is literally dead, I don't think it even existed

celest bluff
#

Then there is xmorph defense

#

Definitely should go check that out

deft nest
#

looks interesting

celest bluff
#

The riftbreaker from the same studio

viscid fractal
#

Should i get him to lvl 80

polar crane
#

stop building him

#

not worth your investment GGshake

viscid fractal

You will probably die before you done

Hmmmm

Just for the funny

foggy grove

good luck,it's very expensive

deft badger
#

why to e2 two six stars if u can lvl one to 90 xD

My end game goal is just e2 everyone CeobeConfused

vernal lion

deft nest
#

Should I pull on the 4th anniversary banner or pull for Typhon

karmic glade
#

Both BlitzSmile

deft nest
#

I barely have 30 pulls dies

vernal lion
#

yep, that's the disadvantage for a newbie

deft nest
#

headhunt permits my BELOVEDS

#

Do I farm mats for Cutter?

#

For elite

polar crane
#

sure

deft nest
#

Do higher mat stages give more mat rewards at the end?

karmic glade
#

Some doesn't, check penguin statistics or #bot-spam

glass monolith
#

Some stages has more chance for material than others

latent anvil
#

maybe they mean the resource stages Sheew

deft nest
#

The chips

#

The guard chips

latent anvil
#

well chips there are two kinds

karmic glade
#

Chip gives entirely different chips

glass monolith
#

Second stage give chips for second promotion

latent anvil
#

one for e1 and one for e2

deft nest
#

aren't they mats?

latent anvil
#

for promoting the first time you farm first chip stage, second promotion farm second chip stage Sheew

glass monolith
#

And if you promote 5* or 6* rarity second time you need to farm AP stages as well to get certs to buy glue to build dual chip in factory and i think you need factory 3 for that

#

Could be wrong because it is one of those unlocks which i done years ago (suffering of beign 243 max right, i have no memory of what level 2 buildings do RedOmegaLul )

deft nest
#

oh my eliting ops costs so much sanity

vital arrow
#

welcome to arknights

deft nest
#

Now I don't feel as eliting a 4*

#

Which Cutter skill is better

glass monolith
#

You can skip AP stages and factory step for second promotion of 4*s and it is almost half of chips from 36 cost stage (5 instead 8)

polar crane
cyan gorge

S1 general use, s2 when you want to nuke drones

vital arrow
#

don't tell them E2 and mastery costs

glass monolith

~~Don't tell them module blocks are time gate and he need to spend buy out them in red cert shop monthly DIE ~~

rigid sundial
#

Which ones should I max the module of first? I can do all of the chars inside the thing

#

I'm also gonna e2 mudrock soon but I was thinking of Leveling Kal'tsit first

#

Right now, I'm thinking of getting Kal'tsit's module, Ho'olheyak, Rosmontis, and then YatoAlter

rigid sundial
polar crane
#

do kal first

#

other dont matter much in the order

rigid sundial
#

Alright thanks!

cyan gorge
#

Kal (mod y) > Mud e2 > Rosmontis > the rest

deft nest
midnight veldt
#

This will be enough to clear Anni 3?

latent anvil
#

probably yea

#

could also bring a pusher

#

for the bot lane

midnight veldt
#

Replacing who?

latent anvil
#

uh, texas i think

#

only need 1 vg

midnight veldt
#

Do I need Sl7?

#

on the pusher?

latent anvil
#

i think so yea

#

are you borrowing?

midnight veldt
#

I guess I can borrow a pusher

#

but I wanted to borrow someone to help clear after 350

cyan gorge
#

It doesn't cost much to get a sl7 e1 max Shaw

latent anvil
#

just borrow a thorns

#

dont borrow a pusher if youre gonna borrow, honestly with thorns you might not even need a pusher

midnight veldt
#

Put him bot lane?

#

I cleared to 375 without a pusher before, even with no E2s for that matter

latent anvil
#

up one and to the right one of the bottom right ranged tile

midnight veldt
latent anvil
#

er

midnight veldt
#

Can someone backseat gaming me, I'm small brain

latent anvil
#

good thorns spot RosThumbsUp

midnight veldt
#

I'll try it, when do I put him in tho?

#

order doesn't matter?

latent anvil
#

whenever, try to do it after ranged ops

deft badger
#

one tile back or thorns dies

latent anvil
#

just give him a medic

#

or let him die WarsmugBlue

deft badger
#

i am thinking right now would he die ๐Ÿ˜„

#

because gummy e2 nearly dies

latent anvil
#

gummy e2 doesnt kill anything

deft badger
#

just thinking about stats dude

latent anvil
#

oh ye @midnight veldt if you leak you can force close ur game and it wont burn sanity

midnight veldt
deft badger
#

at 350, 2 drones spawn there plus that ballista, gummy struggles hard to survive...

#

but try it i wanna know if thorns can survive it

latent anvil
#

yea im trying it rn pepeLaugh ill let you know if thons dies

#

last time i ran anni 3 mustve been 1.5 years ago on an alt

little orchid
midnight veldt
#

going like this for now

latent anvil
#

ayo he has no medic

surreal star
#

i'm thinking something like this

latent anvil
#

๐Ÿ’€

#

ifrit borrow actually good

#

but face surtr up

deft badger
midnight veldt
#

Don't have warf and Cuora is low level

latent anvil
deft badger
#

switch the top healer to bot dude

#

u need the aoe healer on top

#

and st on bot

little orchid
#

also can place thorns on C8 and when drones spawn, just drop surtr in the middle to draw fire and kill some hammer bois

latent anvil
#

my saria is too strong so i will sell saria later for testing

#

also my placements are actuallyk inda trash lemme redo it ๐Ÿ’€

deft badger
#

keep going i wanna know if he survives 350

#

drone spawn ๐Ÿ˜„

#

but i am kinder sure he doesn't

midnight veldt
vital arrow
#

Thorns too far right

#

Put him one tile left and saria one tile to the right

#

You want to block the midlane

#

Why is there an empty space in the middle

steep robin
#

can I clear this using this party? or should I use a support unit?

midnight veldt
vital arrow
#

Throns will probably just get gibbed on wave 350

#

Oneshot by 3 arts masters

vital arrow
#

Or you can just use gravel and bait them one by one

latent anvil
vital arrow
#

Yeh

latent anvil
#

he just insta kills them tho

deft badger
#

its 2 drones, balista and a caster

latent anvil
#

is it the wave with a bunch of def crushers

vital arrow
#

If he does then its fine ig

deft badger
#

yes

#

right when they spawn

latent anvil
#

i remember he kills them first before the def crushers

deft badger
#

but u have to count in a e1 healer

#

urs survives it

latent anvil
#

yea my healer is e1 rn

deft badger
#

if u have saria and e2 healer

latent anvil
#

i gotta kick saria later ill test it

vital arrow
#

Does.saria even reach him

latent anvil
#

his saria was on s2

midnight veldt
#

E2 Saria 1s1m should be enough

latent anvil
#

yea s1m1 better

vital arrow
#

Why is their saria so far back

#

Whats the point of using her if she cant heal thorns ReedBean

deft badger
#

i did make for someone a video did have kinder the same setup but gummy was in range for them to aggro on her and she nearly died e2 btw with e1 healer xD

torn ice
#

assuming this is s2 usage

vital arrow
#

That is a scuffed saria placement on any skill

torn ice
#

ya need to be 2 tiles up ahead

vital arrow
#

Also why is perfumer chilling up there

torn ice
#

that one is fine cause of double ranged i guess

midnight veldt
#

Most reach

torn ice
#

since her job is to heal the 2 snipers

midnight veldt
vital arrow
#

I'd swap perfumer and silencr

midnight veldt
#

She couldn't reach everyone from back

vital arrow
#

And pull thorns one tile to the left

latent anvil
#

im almost at 200 RosChill

vital arrow
#

Perfumer is just taking unnecessary fire there

deft badger
#

anni3 there are just 2 places to watch out if u use thorns, bot right corner where the 2 drones spawns ince they do a lot of dmg they kill 100% a e1 tank u have to replace him after that its at 350 and at 300 top sniper spot drone

#

put lapp or arene infront the sniper

midnight veldt
#

ok, new plan

midnight veldt
torn ice
#

this is better

deft badger
#

its ok u have 2 snipers

vital arrow
deft badger
#

its going to work out

torn ice
#

tho swapping silence to be behind grey and perfumer in place of silence would be better

vital arrow
#

Put silence behind greythroat

deft badger
#

if they kill the drone fast enough if they don't that 2 snipers die

vital arrow
#

Idk if meteorite can handle the defense crushers

midnight veldt
#

I have E2 surtr for that

quick pecan
vital arrow
#

Well its fine theb

deft badger
#

doesn't have to

midnight veldt
#

Meteorite is E1

torn ice
#

s2 liskarm? :pepelaugh:

deft badger
#

u just remove top defender at 300

midnight veldt
#

S1

vital arrow
#

Idt meteorite is even necessary if you have surtr

deft badger
#

and let the crusher run a circle in to thorns

vital arrow
#

She's just

#

Fluff

quick pecan
#

if the meteorite was e2 s1m3 she would be cookin

#

a lot of her power is in masteries + mod

#

less easy to get over def at e1

Just do it that way first and see if it sticks

Itโ€™s how I did it

vital arrow
latent anvil
#

on s1m1 saria, thorns shouldnt die in my spot mspaintwow

vital arrow
#

In the current setup he camps all bottom half lane

#

If hes bottom facing up he wont kill the DCs on time

Yes theres is also a DC coming botlane

Then leaks

๐Ÿ’€

#

kroos is alive and she was there before 300 if that means anything

#

my silence same lvl as his silence

midnight veldt
#

They killed insider RedOmegaLul

#

But thorns just kills everyone, so it doesn't really change anything

#

Destreze is S1?

vital arrow
#

S3

midnight veldt
#

It's S3M3 lvl 90 thorns

vital arrow
#

Yay?

crystal cargo
#

Ok

midnight veldt
#

Ok 350

#

What is a good spot that alot of Def crushers circle around to drop Surtr, just incase?

vital arrow
#

Huh?

crystal cargo
#

You donโ€™t really need surtr for them Ngl

vital arrow
#

Your problem is the toplane

#

2 def crushers go there

#

Use surte for them

#

And 1 def crusher leader on wave 380

#

Thorns cant kill it on his own

#

So help him with someone

deft badger
#

remove the top defender at 300

#

and place him back at 350 after the crusher passes that part

latent anvil
#

just sell meteorite for a caster

#

and that should be it

deft badger
#

just watch from that point u just need thorns for that map 4 defenders 2 snipers 1 aoe healer 1 st healer... thats it not surtr or any other bs xD

latent anvil
#

oh ye @deft badger my thorns doesnt die at all but myrtle does ChenShrug

midnight veldt
#

Cleared it

latent anvil
vital arrow
#

Ok good

midnight veldt
#

there was alot of panicked placements

#

and sacrifced myrtle

vital arrow
#

400?

midnight veldt
#

to stall the crusher elite

#

yeah

deft badger
vital arrow
#

Ok now just farm anni 2

latent anvil
#

my thorns spot works and thats all that matters WarsmugRed

midnight veldt
#

I already got Anni 2 to 400

vital arrow
#

I mean for weekly auto farm

midnight veldt
#

How do you get these?

#

for 1800 cap

latent anvil
#

rotating one

midnight veldt
#

Oh it's that flux thing

vital arrow
#

I just never bothered with the flux and bruteforced it

midnight veldt
#

Any general tips for it?

vital arrow
#

What would an actual good placement look like for the flux

midnight veldt
#

Will my party be enough?

vital arrow
#

You'll need to keep 2 lanes alive for that map

#

3 if you count the middle one

midnight veldt
#

There's certain ops that would be very good for this, that I don't have

vital arrow
#

Like who

midnight veldt
#

Like mlynar?

vital arrow
#

I dont use mlynar for this stage

latent anvil
#

chongyue horn

vital arrow
#

Since he needs flux and thats a hassle for him

midnight veldt
#

Only 6* i have

vital arrow
#

I do use chongus and horn

midnight veldt
deft badger
#

e2 cutter cantabile

vital arrow
#

Imma just say I'm not smart enough to work around the flux

latent anvil
#

just make a rectangle

vital arrow
#

So i'll just let someone else take the wheel

#

Yeh thats what I tried the first time

#

But it looks so scuffed

deft badger
midnight veldt
#

I didn't play at that time

#

I have cutter

deft badger
#

exe alter was 2 days ago

midnight veldt
#

Ah

deft nest
#

How do you have so many 6*s then

midnight veldt
#

I only played for like a month or 2 methinks

deft badger
#

he was playing at that time he just doesn't know who i mean with exe alter

deft nest
#

ohhh

deft badger
#

look at ur vanguards if u have canta

midnight veldt
#

I thought you meant Texalter

#

I'm blind

deft badger
#

would replace her for texas she is a 5 star ines

#

and cutter just nukes

midnight veldt
#

No I don't

deft badger
#

since u did e1 ceobe well use her

midnight veldt
#

but I know who she is, borrowed her once

deft badger
#

ok nvm use what u have

#

btw go get ur self gladiia

midnight veldt
#

I don't think I'll clear it

midnight veldt
deft badger
#

yes

midnight veldt
#

Which event?

glass monolith
#

Under tides

deft badger
#

minus knows

#

i suck when it comes to remembering names lol

glass monolith
#

I just named random eggs related event DIE

midnight veldt
#

I'll get her on monday then

deft badger
#

she becomes broken at e2 with her mod

glass monolith
#

Module stage 2 to be exact

midnight veldt
#

Which archetype is she?

deft badger
#

specialist

midnight veldt
#

What she do

glass monolith
#

Damn i sould have saved that meme image

midnight veldt
#

I was planning to E2 Ceobe or Suzu

deft badger
#

do people use gladiia specter combos?

glass monolith
deft badger
#

i think u lack atm some lane holders

#

lol

midnight veldt
#

So is she a welfare 6*?

deft badger
#

yes

glass monolith
#

Yes. and she is as broken as we will get

midnight veldt
deft badger
#

skadi specter spalter

#

i am just going to ignore the fact adreana exists since i don't like her

#

saw minus roll gladiia specter seems to work fine for him so yeah AH broken

glass monolith
#

S1 can have charges (not sure if we have any other puller who can do that)
S2 attack 2 targets in increased range (I forgot if it is 2x3 or 3x3) and pull them with decent duration (which is again, i don't recall pullers who have skills allowing to pull with attacks for duration)
S3 roots main target and does some arts damage.
Talent with module stage 2 reduce Physical and Arts from ALL sources, for ALL Abyssal hunters

deft badger
#

i would focus on getting gladiia specter

#

then just borrow spalter

#

skadi is ok but not a must

glass monolith
#

Oh also like 3% max hp regen per second (stage 3 is overkill, but if you go all abyssal hunters, why not HellaKek )

midnight veldt
#

Spalter is?

deft badger
#

AH can clear most of the content without any problems

cyan gorge
#

limited 6* dollkeeper specialist

midnight veldt
#

So u can have both Specter and Specter alter?

deft badger
#

alter version of specter

#

yes

#

in ur case i would e2 now a cutter she is cheap

glass monolith
deft badger
#

then spam the hell out of IS till u clear it

#

u have surtr that will be easy with thorns surtr

#

borrow thorns at the start and just roll

midnight veldt
#

I almost cleared ending 2 the other day

glass monolith
deft badger
#

IS2 then switch to IS3 when u are done till then u will have couple e2s

midnight veldt
#

I don't like IS2

#

It's way harder than IS3 smh

deft badger
#

just start with thorns xD

glass monolith
#

IS2 Hard kick harder than IS3 because you just eat enemy stats +40% from start

midnight veldt
#

even on green difficulty?

#

Also missions with civilians SkadiDaijoubu

glass monolith
#

Roster issueChenShrug

#

If you afraid of civilians IS4 got you covered

midnight veldt
#

They got HE civilians in there

glass monolith
#

STAGE WITH 3 TYPES OF CIVILIANS FROM DIFFERENT EVENTS

midnight veldt
#

don't tell me

tropic valve
#

25% - 40% depending on cursed relic

midnight veldt
tropic valve
#

the 40% (chachek) is one of the harder ones

deft badger
#

don't know why people have the feeling IS3 is easier, the boss yes is but the way to the boss is not i hate that RNG

glass monolith
#

As person who did deep dive or whatever which forces you into hard relic i can say - There are no relics but 40% one

deft badger
#

and someone please tell me IS4 isn't that much RNG based

#

IS2 is just brain afk for me thorns get surtr till end gg

midnight veldt
glass monolith
deft badger
#

i bet i have a over 95% clear rate in IS2

tropic valve
#

I mean at low D you don't really interact with rejections too much

cyan gorge
#

IS3 only feels hard when you brute force without having any form of cc raised

tropic valve
#

so you don't have to trudge through the rng of ops catching metastatic

midnight veldt
cyan gorge
#

May is cracked in IS3

#

do it

tropic valve
#

she's cracked in both

#

worth raising

midnight veldt
#

I once got a temporary one

#

carried me to Ending 2

#

with 16 stacks of Survivor contract

#

was not enough to clear tho

deft badger
#

just find something that works, u don't have to like it spam it get the mats that's one of the best places to get mats to e2 ur stuff when u start

#
  1. Event
  2. IS
midnight veldt
#

I'm lvl 58 in IS3

#

and lvl 5 in IS2 RedOmegaLul

deft badger
#

the moment u find a way u will have a 90%+ clear rate and just destroy it

midnight veldt
#

Never borrowed ops in IS

deft badger
#

i think that i lost in IS3 like 5 times from lvl58 to max

midnight veldt
#

cause I never knew you can

cyan gorge
#

Only at the start

midnight veldt
#

I know

#

but still

#

I always get the guaranteed 4* temporary at the start

#

best success rate for me

cyan gorge
#

Good way to test 4*s you never considered raising

midnight veldt
#

Exactly my thoughts

#

I saw the light of May that way RedOmegaLul

cyan gorge
#

IS converted me to liking Deepcolor and Ambriel

midnight veldt
#

Deepcolor is the first 4* I got

#

but I only used her for the first few levels

glass monolith
#

Summoners be like that

midnight veldt
#

I have Mayer

glass monolith
#

First you don't understand the point. then you break fabric of reality

midnight veldt
#

tho didn't use her yet

cyan gorge
#

Deepcolor, or summoners in general, feels underwhelming till you get her module

midnight veldt
#

I once got a temporary Scene in IS

#

she is very fun

glass monolith
#

Mayer's dog not doing S2 when stunned is so dumb LappDumb

midnight veldt
#

I think May is worth raising for story progression too, since I don't have any 6* marksman gotta do with what I have

#

As funny as that sounds, I'm stuck at Ch5

deft badger
#

6 star marksman are trash anyway xD

#

did u get that new guy?

glass monolith
midnight veldt
deft badger
#

well they are not but its not like they are much stronger then 5 stars

cyan gorge
#

I still use her regularly

deft badger
midnight veldt
#

Yea, full pot

deft badger
#

he is good

midnight veldt
#

I heard alot of folk say GreyThroat is bad

tropic valve
#

Archetto pog

midnight veldt
#

makes me regret E2 max lvling her SkadiDaijoubu

tropic valve
#

well, Greythroat is basically worse Krooster, but Krooster is so good that even a worse Krooster ends up being good

cyan gorge
#

Greythroat is still servicable

tropic valve
#

I also E2 maxed Greythroat 0 regrets

cyan gorge
#

budget Cheeto

#

only bird I don't own tho SkadiDaijoubu

midnight veldt
#

I have her S2M3 even

tropic valve
#

same

midnight veldt
#

and mod 3

deft badger
#

if u have her don't e2 a other one now, i would just save

#

get that cutter

tropic valve
#

in fact all 5* Marksmen are good

midnight veldt
#

It's not like I'm rushing anywhere

deft badger
#

maybe some other 4 stars since they are cheap and do ur events get that gladiia

tropic valve
#

the only Marksman who is meh would be Jessica

#

even then, she has a powerstrike for Spinach synergy at least

cyan gorge
#

May is that with a slow

midnight veldt
#

Hoping I'd get something good at the event banner, gonna save some pulls

#

the eyjaberry one

#

Maybe I'll even buy the 2 10 pull tickets BlitzSmile

cyan gorge
#

Eyja2 banner has new 5* bird SoraWow

deft badger
#

are healers worth even a big investment in future content?

midnight veldt
#

Ppl say Eyjalter is the top meta healer

#

so everyone gonna simp for her probably

deft badger
#

she is but u kinder don't really need healers later lol

midnight veldt
#

well if I get her, It'll be a good investment, since I don't really have much

deft badger
#

better focus on clearing as much u can this month

midnight veldt
#

But I want a 6* ranged guard or some 6* marksman

deft badger
#

story, side story, inter for typhon

#

farm that Originite

midnight veldt
#

Yeah I clear the old events every week

crystal cargo
midnight veldt
#

I doubt I'll get him, if you mean the current banner

deft badger
#

don't roll on that... xD

midnight veldt
#

it will get replaced with Eyjalter right?

cyan gorge
deft badger
#

he has saria

#

so any elemental healer with saria is fine xD

midnight veldt
#

Yeah, I think I lucked out on getting Saria and Surtr early I guess

#

And Ceobe I even got from recruitment, and I heard that stuff's mad rare

deft badger
#

just farm Originite get typhon

midnight veldt
#

The thing Is I often waste Originite to farm mats

cyan gorge
#

Using Saria is fine, but being caught medicless when it matters is LappDumb moment

midnight veldt
#

Let's go

deft badger
#

if u wanna buy something monthly ticket 5usd

midnight veldt
#

it gonna expire in 3 days tho

#

but I'll buy it again

cosmic thicket
#

that's not even a tag combo

cyan gorge
#

Yeah that's a dead tag combo

midnight veldt
#

I thought Incantation medics have DPS in their tags

#

guess not

cosmic thicket
#

none of them are in recruitment

cyan gorge
#

they aren't in recruitment yet

midnight veldt
#

Well atleast you can laugh at this

glass monolith
#

Don't want to add salt on wound... But they are not DPS tag either FrankaWheeze

midnight veldt
#

Yeah I went to check my Hibalter

#

thanks

glass monolith
#

Medic Ranged Healing, exception is reed alter but by time she come to recruitment Yostar will abandon AK and move on

#

Oh, sorry I wasn't replying to you SkadiDaijoubu

deft badger
#

monthlies are the best...

#

20 pull pack and the card..

atomic monolith
#

Is there a new meta brewing in cn or will arturia just be a nice flex unit to have?

tidal sedge
#

Hard to say as of now

#

She saw some use in high end CC at least

atomic monolith
#

Yeah, HG seems to be experimenting with more elemental damage, i wonder iff we'll get an elemental damage focused melee unit soon

tidal sedge
#

6 star primals will probably be a good look at what 6 star elemental packages will be like

atomic monolith
#

Since Caster and support have new element archetypes

tidal sedge
#

I'm interested in what gacha ritualists will look like

glass monolith
#

Eyjaberry summoning ritual - set volume to 0 SkadiDaijoubu

tidal sedge
#

5* I mean

#

I'm really hoping to not have to resort to 6* power to enjoy elemental play

atomic monolith
#

She basically does true damage, since we don't have many enemies with elements resistance yet

#

Also she can widdle down patriot first stage with only skill one

#

Reed alter explosions can spread Virtuosas skill 2 necrosis apparently

tidal sedge
#

Source shenanigans

#

Does Pass s3 work with Virtuosa s2

#

That'd be decently spicy if I'm doing 6* stuff

atomic monolith
#

I'm pretty confident it can

#

Because it looks like the dot from reeds debuff counts as a hit for her necrosis

#

I might be mistaken tho

tidal sedge
#

I vaguely remember how Pass s3 has weird interactions with effects that track source is why I'm wondering

atomic monolith
#

Hmmmm

#

Wish i could check, don't have passenger lol

vocal leaf
crystal cargo

Mudrock carried Fr

crisp bolt
#

I did a similar thing to delete the boss BlitzSmile

but I did suzurat + mlynar sweep

#

and saria s3 to keep the boss slowed while cooldowns came back up

dry night
#

how am i beating this SkadiDaijoubu

foggy grove
#

uh which stage is that again and which part are you struggling with

dry night
#

LE-4

#

struggling with the top path filled with the colossal things

foggy grove
#

point the flux to colosus

#

they need 2 block unit to be blocked

#

when on the flux their res and def is greatly reduced

candid beacon
#

How do I clear LE-8 without Lee bruh

ornate pond
#

just nuke the map with arts dmg/mlynar

ornate pond
#

or theres a ling solo iirc

crisp bolt
#

TiL, that's how you're supposed to use flux

ornate pond
#

tbh the event is pretty easy even if u ignore mechanics

foggy grove
#

ye for developed acc you can ignore it
but 1.2k def and 50 res collosus is too painful for newb to ignore mechanic RedOmegaLul

quick pecan
#

yeah newbies get punished hard for attempting to ignore mechanics

candid beacon
quick pecan

splash arts damage to the face

Ignoring mechanics is the privilege of old accounts, then they get to come here and ask why a new player is having trouble

I legit can NOT find Lee E2 anywhere and this stage is taking longer than Hortus or literally anything I've played

I do not have a high rarity squad bro I'm just 4 months in

@sly pivot has lee raised

field and spire casters are hurting me SkadiDaijoubu

tidal sedge

May I see your ops?

dry night
#

@tidal sedge

tidal sedge
#

Oh. More to work with I expected. That's good.

#

Very unfortunate your e2 has a shaky matchup vs LE enemies though

ornate pond
# dry night

u can copy a ling clear if u dont plan on farming sugar (which you shouldnt). one suggestion though is to use click > amiya as a general caster. you dont exactly need greyy there either, could swap in something else for more arts dmg since your team is physical heavy

tidal sedge
#

The field casters have 15k hp, 500 def, and 60 res wtf

dry night
royal delta
ornate pond
royal delta
#

field casters - either you burst them or you make sure everyone standing in the field has friends nearby to kill the stun orbs

limpid siren
#

Youโ€™re too slow old man

dry night
ornate pond
#

just borrow MudrockNaruhodo

#

but no, shes limited

#

you can spark

dry night
tidal sedge
#

Their DoT doesn't trigger defensive recovery either hmm

#

This might sound weird but Penance s2 might be decent chip vs the field caster

royal delta
#

the DoT isn't that bad - they have a long cooldown and the dot is tied to a summon that dies in a few hits, you just need to be able to hit it

tidal sedge
#

It's not the damage that's the problem

#

It's that Penance has like no way to use s3

#

Anyways, I'd try something like Silence + Cutter top lane. Penance, Lappland, Shining, and maybe Shirayuki bottom?

#

Open by using a filler ranged op and vg to direct beam to the sealed node

#

If Cutter + medic can hold top, then everything else can be dedicated to killing the field caster

#

and by hold top, I mean try to keep Cutter at edge of st medic range to minimize Spire Caster hitting 2 ops

Farming grindstone this event

#

LE-6 has execution gate. Annoying.

sly drift
#

What's execution gate

karmic glade
#

just use firewatch and perfectly time the skill HellaKek

gray stone
#

Kill gate

#

but with style

tidal sedge
#

Execution as in kill ye

gray stone
#

What's the kill gate btw

#

Is it the saxophone guy

tidal sedge
#

12th enemy

#

Although if you don't use originite for farming, there's little reason to care about speed farming

#

Except for the fun of it

karmic glade
tidal sedge
#

That Firewatch s2 at the end

#

Honestly I'm surprised low op speed runs bother to fish for Firewatch rng to such extents sometimes

#

Kinda funny to compare to high end play in other games which are oftentimes more willing to use more resources for better reliability

sly drift
tidal sedge
#

The purple slug spawns are gated by 12th enemy dying in LE-6

sly drift
#

Also it was like one second difference. Do ppl really care about such thing

tidal sedge
#

It's usually done for its own sake like I said earlier

karmic glade
#

you lose like 3 sec if you do it with mlynar, it's just a fun challenge RedOmegaLul

tidal sedge
#

Although for me I only just looked it up and got annoyed as I built my auto ignorant of it

#

I use originite for farming so certain gains in time can actually be worthwhile

#

Like SV-10, I shaved 20~ seconds off my auto after learning of the kill gates. Which adds up when you run it a lot

#

I'm not a whale

#

Just monthly card

midnight veldt
#

4-10 challenge, any tips?

#

I guess that stage is very RNG with the boss skill SkadiDaijoubu

tidal sedge
#

It can be reliable with the right strategy

midnight veldt
#

Who is the best op to borrow?

tidal sedge
#

People typically use Marksmen to snipe FN safely while using Gravel and high hp bodies like Mel to keep FN still for marksmen

gray stone
#

I think Yato just shit on her but Exusiai works

midnight veldt
#

This enough, if I borrow Exusiai?

vital arrow
#

More than enough

#

Pretty sure GT S2 just kills her

gray stone
#

oh lord E2 max Greythroat

midnight veldt
#

So I should just snipe her on the top lane, right?

vital arrow
#

Yes

#

Also use myrtle s1

midnight veldt
vital arrow
#

Myrtle s2 has worse cycling if you're using her as a printer

gray stone
#

No I'm just surprised

midnight veldt
#

Crits carry when they exist

#

especially when S2M3

vital arrow
#

Usually people dont E2 marksmen that much

#

Well E2 is fine

#

Not maxing though

#

Because marksmen are generally low impact

midnight veldt
#

Why? LappDumb

#

Guards for Phys dps?

spark sinew
#

e2 50 myrtle on s2 Bnuuy

vital arrow
#

Yes usually guards are better

midnight veldt
#

GT didn't get her, so Surtrerd her on the second lane

sly drift
#

Ray (new op) 3rd skill is Ebenholdz wet dream

vital arrow
#

Ebenholz could never

#

This is the S3 that ebenholz wanted

tidal sedge
#

Looks like the Sand Beast grants 3x3 range

vital arrow
#

Yeah she practically has a priority 3x3 range

#

That alone makes her interesting

tidal sedge
#

I like the Sand Beast gimmick, it might be what I'd like Poz s2 to have been more like

#

The rest of her known kit is close to what I'd have expected from a 6* hunter.

vital arrow
#

From the preview

#

She looks like she can permabind on S3 for 1 enemy

karmic glade
#

Sand Beast needs to be placed within range though, so it's like at most 7 tile more range

#

Not like typewriter which can be placed everywhere

vital arrow
#

I think the point of the sand beast is not the range extension

#

But the bonus damage and target priority

karmic glade
#

And this sand beast couldn't even just stay there, s2 is suppose to be a afk skill but you still need to do summon micro, lets see if the damage is worth it GoldenglowSad

tidal sedge
#

Infinite skill doesn't necessitate afk skill

surreal star
#

jess s1 is kinda like that

#

and skalter s2 ig

tidal sedge
#

Poz s1 too. But it's number are kinda lacking so it's not really used

karmic glade
#

yeah, but you don't need to do those, but this s2 if you don't micro you just lose out on a lot of damage because of the bullet mechanic

tidal sedge
#

I'm curious what happens when Ray s2 activates when Sand Beast is on cd

#

Does it scale to the adjusted redeploy time immediately?

#

Frozen Monstrosity redeploy increase does such

gray stone
#

or just instant refresh

karmic glade
#

arknight's redeployment time is stored as time passed not time left, so I would guess it would update immediately, but we would need to test that

limpid siren
#

all it takes is a 6* power budget to make an awful archetype usable

#

S3 E17

spark sinew
#

is the archetype even awful

#

they have drawbacks, sure ๐Ÿค”

limpid siren
#

coldshot has no means of managing the unique ammo system, couple that with the limited range and she looks like one of the weakest 5* snipers

tidal sedge
karmic glade
#

you basically needs to remove the ammo limit for this archetype to be good, like this new 6*'s skill RedOmegaLul

limpid siren
#

i'm down for the sand beast stuff if coldshot were to have something like that too

#

it's interesting

south sage
#

Anyone got any tips for this map?

karmic glade
#

or like have a DPH of 10k or something to have a acceptable DPS, but that would be busted HellaKek

dense compass
#

more aoe

limpid siren
#

you may consider trying to cover more ground with the funny beam

limpid siren
#

i remember arts damage - especially multi-target - being nice on that stage

#

Look closely

#

Then borrow an aoe dps

i did look closely

The enemies loop around a bunch, 0 block ops can help redirect the beam while avoiding blocking the golems

Or like, exalter

Missile mechs is like
