[celest bluff]

👍

[spark sinew]

classic

20 caster chips 0 sniper

[celest bluff]

Fia ate those

[turbid badge]

my collectiob looked like thst b4

now its red cert farm always

[celest bluff]

What do you even need red cert for

Modules?

[turbid badge]

yea

and chips

why u bunny me

again

[spark sinew]

1-29
8-24
2-17 👍
we also have shitton of guards incoming

why hg, why

[turbid badge]

oh nice

the supporter stash

[celest bluff]

Get 30 supporter chip

[spark sinew]

why would you need red certs for modules

[turbid badge]

lol mines still alive

[vernal lion]

same, I need module too

[spark sinew]

oh this

[full finch]

I have 3 module blocks left

[turbid badge]

u dont buy it out?

[spark sinew]

it's so cursed i purged it from my memory

i bought it like twice-thrice total

[full finch]

it's the opposite of cursed

[spark sinew]

but yes i've been buying it last two-three months ye

[turbid badge]

module time gate is cursed

[full finch]

it's highly recommended for most players

[turbid badge]

shining ate m last blovks

i have 5 more in event and red cert combined

so i can mod 3

[spark sinew]

teta, did you module ros and kal

[celest bluff]

HG please I beg you, my pulls has been absolutely trash

[turbid badge]

just kal

[spark sinew]

if you did, i would know to not do it

[turbid badge]

i wanna see the other flinger mod

[spark sinew]

ok, so no module for kal

[turbid badge]

so not doing ros

why

the stun module is good

[spark sinew]

you keep doing some cursed modules

[celest bluff]

Kal is still general purpose good

[spark sinew]

i figured it's a good practice to ask what you did and do the opposite 🏃‍♂️

[vernal lion]

good for IS3

[celest bluff]

You literally can't make kal bad

[spark sinew]

not like kal is bad without module

[full finch]

not mod3

literally unusuable

[spark sinew]

i did the missions at least

[turbid badge]

i like the stun cuz it relieves pressure off kal healing if a heavy hitting enemy comes

[quick pecan]

my kal not even e1

[spark sinew]

hey, this kal still carries is3 runs

[quick pecan]

[turbid badge]

waai fu best mod

[quick pecan]

man

kinda questioning my gavialt spark

did i really need that with chong / exalter

the answer is probably no

but she cool

[turbid badge]

my only double mod is schwarz

[vernal lion]

I myself still like modY, its dps is really good

[quick pecan]

me:

yeah ill play 5*

let me get gavialt anyway tho

[vernal lion]

I'm only lacking Melanite pot 6

sad

[spark sinew]

my only double mod is spalter

what a waste

[spice mortar]

What does it do?

[quick pecan]

the centurion modules

are cookin

[vernal lion]

finally got full pot Humus

[turbid badge]

im joking lol

[vernal lion]

now I can cook 4 star clear

[spice mortar]

Oh

[turbid badge]

infected creature more damage

[vernal lion]

isn't that Jaye mod lol

[turbid badge]

both

[spice mortar]

That's pretty bad

Shoulda made her hit air

[vernal lion]

well her s2 is built for chap 4 and 6 anyway

those spiders

[spark sinew]

the best mod2-3 is utage's

[turbid badge]

why

it doesnt decrease deployment time

[spark sinew]

it's op

[turbid badge]

i love the +4% atk and def

[spark sinew]

1

[turbid badge]

what

1

[spark sinew]

1

strongest mod2 to mod3 upgrade

i suppose it's still better than dusk's

[vernal lion]

me, with my Dusk s1m3

[spark sinew]

at least utage's is almost unconditional

[full finch]

dusk mod3 is a whole +2% ATK

amazing!

[vernal lion]

there are 2 mods tho

[spark sinew]

when she kills her 21st enemy

👍

[vernal lion]

annihilation

[spark sinew]

i mean second mod is fine, nothing to particularly dunk about

[vernal lion]

second mod is good for casterknights

reducing cost is important for clear

[spark sinew]

also promotes helidrop playstyle in general

unless you want to wait another 100 seconds to use s3

which most players wouldn't want to

[mint valley]

sl-4 strat?

[crisp bolt]

block + fountain

frd block the big rams

[deft badger]

btw what does the fountain do?

[glass monolith]

[lethal dragon]

Makes your operators wet

Beware of cold breeze they gonna get frozen

[turbid badge]

coom

white goop on adjacent tiles

[glass monolith]

Critical fail on perception? He ask about Fountains, not Bottles

[turbid badge]

does the fountain not do the same?

[glass monolith]

Fountain make ranged operators spawn white smoke when doing damage to ground sheep (We checked that shit on stainless turret, doesn't work)

Add damage from Ling S3 to list of stuff which don't spread white smoke

FFS i spend 3 minutes looking for Mayers S2 and she is on trust farm

I knew Mayer S2 wouldn't work but needed to check regardless

[near folio]

Should I skip Typhon for Jessicat?

[turbid badge]

thats for you to decide tbh

[near folio]

How high are Typhon's damage numbers?

Like compared to Mlynar and Pozy?

[lethal dragon]

It's more her ease of use which matters tbh

[near folio]

So I wont fall off with Mlynar and Pozy as my top dps?

[deft badger]

typhon does more then pozy i think but less then mlynar

let me take a look, which skill do u even use on typhon?

[random widget]

This enemy so strong

[shrewd hull]

They drown in like 7 seconds tho. If they’re underwater they’re sitting ducks

[random widget]

I was thinking of removing the platforms

And having Ines do her job

[deft badger]

typhone mlynar pozy on 1k def 80res wasn't sure what kind of dmg she does because she does a lot i tought she does less then mlynar

[random widget]

But that didn’t work out so I just full spammed 6 stars

[deft badger]

typhone is actually nuts with module, 2k def target that girl still does big numbers 😄

typhone mlynar pozy 2k def target

[turbid badge]

cuz of defense ignore?

[deft badger]

yeah

[deft badger]

where do i add like warf 90% boost?

in atk power or basic atk

[gentle sable]

what site is this

[deft badger]

viktorlab.cn

[gentle sable]

alright thanks

[deft badger]

where are the big brains i wanna know where to add that 90% 😄

@glass monolith i see u online 😄

where do i add that 90%

[glass monolith]

You asking guy who fucking Excel sheet all math questions

[deft badger]

hahahaha

@honest dove next smart guy i am just going to bother 😄

[limpid siren]

Attack power%/direct multiplication iirc

The little i next to it should give examples

[deft badger]

is there like a cap how much atk a op can have

why does mlynar werform like trash with warf buff

mlynar is in the middle..

[limpid siren]

Because it’s additive with his +400% buff

It’s like pissing in the ocean

[deft badger]

typhone doing from 80k to 200k mlynar from 55k to 73k xD

[limpid siren]

Just a soft cap ig, based on what’s feasible
Not sure if there’s a coded hard cap

[deft badger]

but he likes atk speed

anyway typhone and degen are probably the strongest ops in 2024

[limpid siren]

Yea aspd or amp

[deft badger]

whats amp?

[limpid siren]

dmg_scale like fragile

Mostly just suzuran because she catches everyone in her range

[deft badger]

well that's clear if atk buffs don't work use fragile

[gray stone]

bruhge we're not even half way into the year yet

and Ray got positive receptions but she doesn't have funny 1 cycle Patriot skill so I guess no one hype for her

[deft badger]

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

[gray stone]

Is that "2 views"

[deft badger]

2 days ago

[gray stone]

ah

we need some Arknights CC to start releasing her showcase

[deft badger]

i mean she is nice

but who is she targeting xD

with that rage is that whats the little doll for?

[turbid badge]

it increase range

and she prio in range

and s2 works more into the doll

[limpid siren]

cheeky 6k dph

[deft badger]

and btw with 2024 i meant for us 😄

not cn server

[gray stone]

That's why I tell you to wait until we are half way into the year

[deft badger]

when will we see degen in May Jun

[turbid badge]

one more month and i get the 4th year

[gray stone]

Our last banner for the year should be like 2 months after the CN anniversary

[gray stone]

It's also shit so

[turbid badge]

yeah i can use better skills than that

but prio has my eyes so i might use sometimes

[tidal sedge]

Anyone know how to get about 40 gold certs in less than ten hours lol?

[gray stone]

Nope

If I could I would

[tidal sedge]

All good

[gray stone]

Other than just pay lol

[dusky grove]

Spam recruitment

And hope

I hope you have 200+ at least

[tidal sedge]

142...

[dusky grove]

Welp

Why not

Maybe you can get a stray 6 stars

[tidal sedge]

I wanted Thorns but he will elude me once more

Also i only have like...34 recruitment things

[deft badger]

have u done all annihilations?

1-2-3

[tidal sedge]

Yo I got hard stuck on 2-12, I'm sorta new. Was gonna ask if anyone can help me build a good squad for long term.

I already checked YT, but uh I still don't know everything 💀

[foggy grove]

What do you have

[deft badger]

e1 kroos borrow texas-alter 😄

or yalter fixes all ur problems just the brain afk way

[tidal sedge]

Ye I use Texas alter a lot 💀

It's my second day though. Don't know too much

[deft badger]

2-12

u need snipers

actually texas ain't going to do much

borrow a BP she does some nice dmg early

krooster

[tidal sedge]

Ye that was the main problem. Idk what BP is.

After setting up crossbows my defense would start dying though I probably can fix that with enough attempts.

[cyan gorge]

BP = Blue Poison (5* sniper)
krooster = Kroos the Keen Glint (5* sniper)

[deft badger]

bp does fine but u do 2 of them

[cyan gorge]

it would help us if you just showed the ops you have raised

[deft badger]

did try it right now e1 bp kills bot solo

[tidal sedge]

This might help with context

I pulled 2 5* Elysians w h y

Amiya is E1

[cyan gorge]

Try to get mountain e1

guard chips in event shop

[deft badger]

have u done ur 10 pull?

event

yes u got leon?

anyway use her as well

[tidal sedge]

Saved quite a bit of XP in case I wanted to focus the other ops.

And ye I did the 10 pink pulls

20 discount pulls for 6* guaranteed

And another 10 on one of the events. Didn't like the heros in the deal tho

[deft badger]

try to do the first stage in the event btw

leave that story stage alone now

go to the event and try to do the first one

like zenith told u

[tidal sedge]

But in general, have I upgraded in the right direction? And alright, I'll get to doing that

[deft badger]

right now it doesn't matter

if they can help u clear the first stage there its just fine

[tidal sedge]

Oki doki

[deft badger]

btw pm me 😄

[tidal sedge]

The permanent ones, yes

[foggy grove]

Place your stacks

Place penance into the stacks

[cosmic thicket]

wtf is that squad

[tidal sedge]

Hey yall, idk what 5* op should I get.

[fringe jackal]

elysium

[tidal sedge]

K

[near folio]

Run almost ended

Emergency fireworks show

[vocal leaf]

wouldn’t be better to pick an old op? he can get ely from regular banners

[near folio]

I dont see any notable old ops there

[tidal sedge]

Is this good for SL-1

[vocal leaf]

he’s only showing the standard banner list, there should be more scrolling down

well already picked him

[foggy grove]

pluma would have work better if you are that new

but oh well

[foggy grove]

prolly,you can just try
trial and error is normal

[vocal cave]

unless u are planning to farm that stage just get a support mountain or something

[vocal leaf]

you haven’t pulled anything else? why is flametail still your only 6star?

[tidal sedge]

I didn't get a segond 6 star : (

And I have only a ticket

[vocal leaf]

i mean there’s a limited banner right now, didn’t try that?

[tidal sedge]

I uh spended the 10x on the new banner

And guess what, only I got 5 stars

[tidal sedge]

I'm on 2-12, this is 2 days of progress. If I am correct, we r in the same boat. (I got 2 Elysian pulls 💀)

Oh

[vocal leaf]

mountain starter, nice

[foggy grove]

you have mountain,he carry early game hard

[solid dew]

I LOVE DEF -25%, Attack Range reduces, ATK +50%, Block +1, attacks all blocked enemies, and restores 5% Max HP per second

[tidal sedge]

I'm newer. I don't have E1 on mountain but I'd say Elysian ult is carrying harder. It's the only way I found to set up

I kinda dying on SL-1

[solid dew]

once you get e1 mountain he will probably carry you through most of the main story if you build him (E2+)

[tidal sedge]

That's what I assumed xd

This is the loadout I'm using

[tidal sedge]

Btw I haven't pulled the 2 free 5 stars. Was hoping I'd pull one of the ones I wanted without spending them 💀

[jagged tulip]

i need help :(

[near folio]

Fighting hard mode Lucian in IS2 and bros oneshotting my units

[jagged tulip]

to beat SL-8

[tidal sedge]

Which one of this should I start putting?

[solid dew]

what other units do you have, cause im assuming you know the main gimick of the event. you probably just want to make sure to use it

main thing is make sure to place ranged ops (sniper/caster) on the fountain to spread the white vapour

maybe level up your defenders so they can tank the enemes a bit better

[tidal sedge]

This are all my op

[solid dew]

id probably say use kroos or something on the fountain, then a medic on the left to it and defenders in front of the box
and then add other DPS elsewhere

to kill the ranged ones probs

[tidal sedge]

Ok

[vocal leaf]

blue poison and perfumer are pretty nice, could add them to the squad

perfumer is probably going to your only aoe medic for a long time, since they other two are locked behind kernel banner

[near folio]

Actually so stupid

[fringe jackal]

a lot of the great units are locked behind kernel, saria, suzuran, bagpipe, ng...

[sly drift]

I think we will practically use s3 ejya more than s1. Ppl keep telling newbie in #help to s1m3 first is so overrated

[sly drift]

Soon thorns Surtr too

And at that time newbie can't run away from kernel

[foggy grove]

so only them
that's not a lot

[cinder pike]

just recruit them

[foggy grove]

the real loss is only like suzu from that list

and ofc the good 5* get shafted but joever

[cinder pike]

Saria is sad, do we have any new healing defenders

[foggy grove]

nah

but most people use saria for her s1 which is not really irreplacable

[cinder pike]

she is very qol

[fringe jackal]

there's also no hoshi. have to cope cuora or nearl unless you can get lucky on blemishine

[foggy grove]

just get lucky on jess fr

but honestly cuora is not so shabby

nearl is on kernel

just cope bassline

[fringe jackal]

I just borrow Saria daily

most times juggs can replace anyway

[vocal leaf]

tell me about it, but hey i can make myself a hoshi with cuora and bryo

[jovial nest]

that Mousse is doing a lot

[cinder pike]

mousse is goated, S1M3 her

[jovial nest]

no

[fringe jackal]

tempted to raise bryo for base slave for sure

[foggy grove]

mine is e2 alr

[jovial nest]

i have Bryo e2 40'd and SL7'd. Perks of being my base slave

you get the "playable" perks

[vocal leaf]

yeah without her cuora takes like 50% more damage, the full combo makes him do nearly 0

steam knight gets stronger with every big hit right?

[jovial nest]

no?

its just that charge punch attack is dangerous

his sword slashes are weak

[cinder pike]

doesn't boss do 2.1k attack

so what, -40% attack from mousse + cuora is nuts

[foggy grove]

h11-4 does 2.7k*3
stronk

[vocal leaf]

i see, sometimes he was doing more damage without mouse, by more i mean he killed cuora

[little ravine]

quercus s1 also helps cause the shelter can reduce damage and her fast atk speed means it is more likely she can keep hp high before the big attack

[cinder pike]

how are you getting these stats?
https://map.ark-nights.com/map/hard_11-04
I see it as 2.1k attack

[foggy grove]

you didn't see the multiplier

[vocal leaf]

this what he does with just bryo and the little help of amiya

but somehow in one of the runs he managed to kill her

[foggy grove]

wait a sec

1800 atk

1.2 from stage

1.25 from skill

[foggy grove]

and helps from reed debuff

[turbid badge]

reed??

her attack debuff goes a lonnnng way

normal people just use roberta or shamare

[foggy grove]

normal and roberta

[turbid badge]

what

shield u ignore one instance of damage still good if u e2 u ignore two big hits!!

and she buffs defense

[foggy grove]

not everyone is minus and e2 roberta

[turbid badge]

e1 for base

[vocal leaf]

not everyone has shamare, well at least i don’t

[foggy grove]

should have picked her from selector

[vocal leaf]

but yeah reed was another big help there, maybe that was why he could kill cuora

[vocal leaf]

but there’s ptilo, lap and warf too

[foggy grove]

you don't need lap with that acc tbh

[vocal leaf]

ye but the silence niche could be cool to have, she’s not a priority anyway, friend told me to go for warf, 90% atk is no joke

[foggy grove]

it's not that impactful tbh

unless you loves warfing exu,ray or degen for overkilling
well on exu case more like she need it to overcome defense

[quick pecan]

ptilo too dank

[deft badger]

what do u guys think about that one 😄

gave it away i just hope didn't build them a trash team...

[turbid badge]

[deft badger]

which part don't u like 😄

seeing me putting 3-4-5 stars in a team? lol

[turbid badge]

jessic

use the other one

[harsh bolt]

Does anybody know a unique niche for muelsyse

[deft badger]

i know but didn't get anything better just trash

pinecone actually

[rigid sundial]

Why's the event's auto deploy inconsistent?

[foggy grove]

it's consistent but it can lags like shit

ruining your auto

[rigid sundial]

Ahh I see

Thanksss

[vocal apex]

So I wanna ask- is there a healer that does giant slow bursts of heals?

[peak cloak]

s2 Perfumer?

as u said slow

[vocal apex]

Hmm, alright

ill check em out

[turbid badge]

wth

ak cringy ads are back

lmao

[vocal apex]

team doesn't have a single great healer so far, either gaviel, bnnuy or hibiscus

[turbid badge]

use bnuuy

[peak cloak]

where Among us

[tidal sedge]

I've gotten some months ago

Other mobile game ads are terrible too, at least it motivated me to get an ad blocker on the device then and there

[limpid siren]

[turbid badge]

ik it was bew bc i saw mlynar

they still have the old fire effect jump pop up

[scarlet mortar]

this team is actually not terrible if it had the actual levels

unfortunately it does not

so it's trash

[deft badger]

good that we have the event right now

making one for my self right now lol

[scarlet mortar]

i do mean that everyone needs to be around E2

what is thorns even going to do at E1

and then nobody else has proper ranged dps

marksmen are year 0 ah

[deft badger]

i think u don't get that its 15min after the acc got made 😄

[scarlet mortar]

yh and i'm saying it's bad even then

[deft badger]

so i don't know what the hell u expect to see there i do agree to thorns he trash till e2

but he is there so yeah 😄

[scarlet mortar]

kick thorns for someone with utility

[deft badger]

which ops would u put in

[scarlet mortar]

would depend on your roster

[deft badger]

i gave that one away already

[scarlet mortar]

resend it

[deft badger]

but i am just going to say ok because they have to be e2 to do fine is a joke i hope since u have to start at a point

[scarlet mortar]

no the point is, that squad would only scrape up decent damage if it were E2

so by any other metric it's bad

if you had the resources to E2 them you also would be able to make a better squad

[foggy grove]

what's the argument even

[deft badger]

at this point dude argues with him self

[scarlet mortar]

i'm asking who else they have bc surely there's more options than >thorns >a merchant >two marksmen

[deft badger]

i am not even going to bother gave up a long time one some people in this chat xD

[foggy grove]

two markmen is perfectly fine on new acc

why are you trying to fly instead of walking first

[scarlet mortar]

jaye in there is pretty glaring

[deft badger]

jaye e1 is fine

[scarlet mortar]

but anw that's why i'm asking for their roster lmao

[deft badger]

so don't worry to much about that 🙂

takes literally 10min to make him

[scarlet mortar]

....so i take it you're not gonna send the roster

oh well

[scarlet mortar]

completely imba damage and no sufficient defenders
liskarm is noteworthy for her talent but as a defender is bad
healing isn't enough to cover for that
damage is basically reliant on cutter, kroos and click, which is fine, but means that you do want to keep looking out for better supplements

[deft badger]

maybe we talk again when u understand what kind of a game u are playing 😄
i am not going to argue about how perfect it is or not, curies which ops give so much utility in ur opinion that's nearly a sin what i am putting in the squad
but fact u are playing a game where even the worst s- u can come up is going to work in the end

[scarlet mortar]

i... didn't just shit on it bc it's weird

[deft badger]

have a nice one

[scarlet mortar]

my brother in christ i asked for an image

it would make a better convo if i knew what you had

what even lmao

if i could find it by scrolling i wouldn't have spent ten messages asking you for it but apparently it's been hours since you've sent it

[deft badger]

because its not worth discussing, i can put what ever add my main and just spam texas till story 6-7 and be fine

[scarlet mortar]

...then point stands, your squad is roughshod and is getting carried?

[deft badger]

probably e1 couple of them which i can from the event shop and tomorrow is SA so yeah

nah, just explaining u that it doesn't matter... u are talking about utility in a e0 squad

which already is confusing

[astral nexus]

I still cant beat sl8 what should i do

[scarlet mortar]

um no, i'm saying that that's not a good build

[cinder pike]

what snipers do you have?

[deft badger]

i will pull next time mlynar then its going to be good

[scarlet mortar]

and would only deal good damage by E2, since the dps is solely focused on like 4 ops

[astral nexus]

Insider is my best

[scarlet mortar]

and the defensive side is completely lacking

[astral nexus]

Should i level up my other units

[cinder pike]

the boss does shield is based on hits/bottles

[astral nexus]

Yeah i make cuora tank its skills

[scarlet mortar]

i'm sorry you thought i was shitting on them bc they're E0, but it's a bad squad for progression as a whole

[cinder pike]

so if you have someone like exu/kroos/archetto they can burst down the bosses shield

[scarlet mortar]

getting carried is fine but this is a different matter

[astral nexus]

Oh

Kroos is better?

[cinder pike]

kroos alter

mb

[astral nexus]

Oh yeah i only got the normal one

Should i js wait tomorrow and farm sniper chips

[deft badger]

i am really getting curios how u would build that 4 star squad 😄

[astral nexus]

To promote chen

[cinder pike]

yeah, eckogen made a SL-8 clear with chalter

[scarlet mortar]

focus on levelling click, cutter, get cuora/gummy, build cardigan if you can't, then level liskarm and find someone who synergizes well with her talent

[astral nexus]

Oh great

Thank

[cinder pike]

he has it at m3, but workable with SL7

[scarlet mortar]

once thorns is E2 let him carry your main lane and borrow supports to cheese bosses

[deft badger]

i gave the acc away bro

[scarlet mortar]

until he's usable you can slot someone else

[scarlet mortar]

....ok

good to know

[cinder pike]

or you can borrow Mlynar when you have a e2 unit

[deft badger]

to someone who just started playing 😄

[cinder pike]

it won't be autoable but that is fine, can farm SL-6

[scarlet mortar]

manual farming 💀

[scarlet mortar]

frankly i'd get them away from thorns until later on and build the more basic roles

if they're a newbie

in which case idk if they should be rushing the event either

[cinder pike]

I would honestly prefer midnight over thorns if it is that early

[glass monolith]

I knew there was something wrong with Canta during trust farm SL-8

[hollow epoch]

Thorns as starters go is actually pretty basic, no?

[scarlet mortar]

well at least they get to farm crystals ig

[cinder pike]

like arts on skill is very nice

[hollow epoch]

Only simpler ones are archetto or mountain

[deft badger]

btw i made a new one already and this one is even weirder lol

[scarlet mortar]

i would've rather arene

[scarlet mortar]

oh that one's fine

[hollow epoch]

Why?

[scarlet mortar]

does better damage and targets two

[foggy grove]

ew e2 l1 canta

[cinder pike]

workable, but no defender so you are going to have a annoying time with slugs

[hollow epoch]

Oh at e1

[scarlet mortar]

he's more suited for what you want lords for

...well yh

[hollow epoch]

Yeah that tracks

[scarlet mortar]

thorns doesn't spawn in at E2

[deft badger]

i am looking for canta right now if i don't get her i am rolling again xD

till i have eyja and canta in a team

making this one for me

[glass monolith]

I need DP, not dead enemy, give me module which reduce damage to enemy for more DP then i will talk

yes this boss very easy

[glass monolith]

[scarlet mortar]

ah yes this channel

[peak cloak]

ratatatatatata

[glass monolith]

From old player perspective it is just a training dummy for burst strategies.
New players are screwed by fact you need to do damage in 12 seconds

[deft badger]

which eyjas skills can heal 2 targets at the same time...? is it s1

[jovial nest]

It's practice for IS4 Ed3

[timid schooner]

s1

[deft badger]

btw i know s3 is global

[glass monolith]

Practice for IS4 Ed3 Typhonless

[jovial nest]

don't forget that S3 also superbuffs her best talent

[peak cloak]

everytime i watch this guy, always remind about an old CSGO meme with negev XD

[vernal lion]

I just realize, all the stage names in this event looks like disco song names of 80-90s

[deft badger]

and i though i am the oldest here 😄

[vernal lion]

you're not oldest here

[celest bluff]

"We need to hold b"

[glass monolith]

SN-S-3-rushB

[deft badger]

cyka blyat rush b

[glass monolith]

Go go go

[deft badger]

the hell is that 😄

[glass monolith]

I just graphed how much dogs you eat per SN stage

[deft badger]

whats the lower chart?

bot

left side is the count?

[glass monolith]

Left is count, bottom is seconds from stage start

[deft badger]

lol

[glass monolith]

SN-10 not included because kill gates and honestly it send like 10-ish dogs in first wave and stop

[random widget]

Hi Bestie @vernal lion

[jovial nest]

One of the battle themes also gets to the pixel game sounds combined with the surfer rock vibes you might get from PvZ2's Big Wave Beach battle theme

[vernal lion]

[vernal lion]

pov: you're not the one

[jovial nest]

thats PvZ1

[celest bluff]

The pvz

[jovial nest]

[vernal lion]

that's stage 3 backyard

[jovial nest]

i mean DH already gave us water platforms and high tide gimmicks

too bad they weren't able to combine both

but out of all the summer events, SL has the best map asset templates imo

[vernal lion]

now add it with NL mechanism and we have stage 4 fog

[jovial nest]

for my personal tastes

[celest bluff]

EA lawyers sitting in the corner:

[glass monolith]

Meanwhile PvZ3 is limited released in some countries... RIP PvZ, you were good while it lasted

[jovial nest]

it wasn't released anyways

those are akin to beta tests

we all know its dead

[celest bluff]

There was a pvz3?

[jovial nest]

its better off dead

what they've shown and what has been "improved"

you're better off just wanting it dead

[celest bluff]

Garden warfare 2

[vernal lion]

pvz3 looks like for kid tho

[jovial nest]

i mean

think of it like this

1. first footages and gameplay were ugly 3d

2. you can't pick your fucking plants

3. IT'S ON PORTRAIT MODE

[vernal lion]

kid mode

[jovial nest]

and based on reviews of those who have played it....it has more filler and pointlessness than PvZ2's ridiculous high amt of filler stages that it reaches to 30 stages per world sometimes

[vernal lion]

but now they fixed it to landscape mode

good grief

[jovial nest]

it's not fixed still

it should be shotgunned on someone's backyard

there's no news for a long time

[glass monolith]

They removed portrait mode, but it doesn't fix that they turned it into one of those "match 3, with some select background color/lore every 1-10 levels"

[jovial nest]

and i hope it stays that way....forever

[jovial nest]

my god it's still butt ugly

[vernal lion]

yea

[jovial nest]

what have they done to poor peashooter...

[vernal lion]

peashooter looks like a bullied kid lmao

[jovial nest]

campground...LEVEL 27

[vernal lion]

that's world 2, and we just have 3 worlds

[jovial nest]

and you only have 5 laning plants (basic af), 3 instants....AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOUR LOADOUT

[vernal lion]

btw, they use the mechanism of pvz stage 5 roof

into world 3

[jovial nest]

I've seen it

the design is shit

looks like an ugle mountain

makes zero sense how it's perfectly inclined

you know what would've been a perfect way to implement Stage 5 Roof in PvZ1 to PvZ2 or PvZ3?

PYRAMIDS/EGYPT THEME

makes perfect sense why they're in an inclined slope

[glass monolith]

But you can select 1 of 3 premade furniture every now and then when game goes easy on your with brain melting plot of "Zombos drugged dave for 3 months in order to run for mayor"

[jovial nest]

the potential is endless in PvZ world

[vernal lion]

Laura was still there for this theme song, then she had left iirc

[jovial nest]

and they made it boring

i mean

imagine if Dave is just a normal thing in their neighborhood

their world is a zombie apocalypse

so there's a lot of potential for a post-apocalyptic doomsday prepping theme

on the war against zombies

USING PLANTS

[vernal lion]

pvz3 is like camping story lol

[jovial nest]

Sigh....Thank god AK exists...

or else i would've played PvZ2 again

for the tenth time

[glass monolith]

AK3 - Match 3

[jovial nest]

and hated every second of it

[mossy ore]

thats why you snatch a maxed save file on pvz2

[jovial nest]

if thats the case....there's no point playing it then

[vernal lion]

@jovial nest

levitate in pvz lmao

[jovial nest]

a lvl 2 caveman peashooter

the horror!

Dinosaur world is the worst thing PvZ2 released

[mossy ore]

big wave beach is worse for me

octopus zombie is a fucking bitch

[jovial nest]

at least in BWB, you can at least try to counter the dangerous stuff in a very specific way

the "counter" to dinosaurs ain't a counter

[mossy ore]

dinosaurs when they grab a zombie and bring it to my backline:

[jovial nest]

you just have to tolerate Dinosaurs

[mossy ore]

[jovial nest]

the dinosaur counter has the audacity to both be long cooldown AND fucking expensive to drop

[vernal lion]

man having Imitater is a flex

[jovial nest]

even Tater can't solve that issue

the dinosaurs have already done their jobs the moment you counter them

or there's too many at once to counter all of em

[vernal lion]

I fucking hate the flying one

[mossy ore]

drop a zombie directly at your backline

and then you die of cringe

[jovial nest]

imo the one that speeds up the zombies are worse

since it makes every zombie in that lane a problem

Hurrikale can only do so much carrying

[vernal lion]

yea it's actually worse for the beginning

[peak cloak]

cry on my shoulder from super star i remember?

[vernal lion]

pretty sure man

[peak cloak]

i dont remember exact when but i thinki heard it first time when i was in 1999

[vernal lion]

I was that age

[peak cloak]

4-5 years old at that time

[tidal sedge]

OF stage names were mostly music track titles too

[jovial nest]

makes sense

Obsidian Festival is a music concert

[fair estuary]

Uhh Lil help on sl 8?

https://krooster.com/u/Dragviel

My squad...

[foggy grove]

exu to shred the shield
if you have warf or shamere she can even shred the boss

[fair estuary]

Other a bit hmmm

[fair estuary]

I do but this is the only squad that I can use on the stage

[fair estuary]

Any placement idea?

[glass monolith]

Exu in general direction of boss. Bottom lane doesn't exist if you have leveled chain caster

[foggy grove]

exu top pointing left

lanehold with blaze or something

[deft badger]

this new acc is getting just better

blue banner ftw 😄

[glass monolith]

Tell me it was from those 3 free pulls

[deft badger]

u ain't getting those, got just the normal mails

but it was 4 pulls xD

i am going to get eyja as well

[scarlet mortar]

mountain, specter and schwarz

well there goes the early game ig

also arene

[deft badger]

f- arene

that op is a joke lol

[cinder pike]

you have exu, warf. that should melt the boss and deal with allot of top lane.
bottom lane go experment

[glass monolith]

Jessica - Rich
Jessica alter - Credit card disabled
Swire - Rich
Swire alter - Credit card disabled (withdraw enough money beforehand)

[deft badger]

like every other lord that isn't thorn or qb xD

[scarlet mortar]

i'm pretty sure i did 3-8 with like 6 E1 4*

including him

[cinder pike]

probs could do it with NG, BP and lappland

[deft badger]

o 3-8 i did add my self and guess what i did xD

[scarlet mortar]

pop 2 sodas and/or exu on the boss and down him with surtr

ch'alter soloes bot anw

oh schwarz also can punch through dolly's stats

[deft badger]

but sadly i have to waste lmd and xp on arene since i am going to need him for anni 3 -.-

[vernal lion]

show up like a true boss

[deft badger]

looking nice

[glass monolith]

Enemy shield are literally Ice Cream stands. Game literally screams at you "USE SURTR"

[jovial nest]

They be doing the march like back in 5-10 or H7-4

[celest bluff]

Become a medic because fuck everyone, that's why

[glass monolith]

Heal for 800 is least of that event problems

(for players)

[deft badger]

SL-1 is hard as hell with those ops dude...

[hollow epoch]

Id have thought sl1 is doable with lvl 1 ops

[spark sinew]

am i supposed to believe you have 10 ops in total

[foggy grove]

you want to play with the smoke

[deft badger]

bro what do u want from me 😄

[foggy grove]

poke enemy with charger to produce cloud then place your defender

on that cloud

[celest bluff]

I swear seen you have a stack acc

[deft nest]

Guys what if I save for Ray instead of Typhon

[celest bluff]

Raytheon

[spark sinew]

i mean, what are we supposed to say

[deft nest]

I love that pet

[spark sinew]

"you can't?"

[deft nest]

I'm a newbie*

[celest bluff]

Pull both

Then be broke

[spark sinew]

the main problem is that ray won't be coming for awhile

[celest bluff]

That is the only way

[hollow epoch]

Ray is like, 6 months away

[spark sinew]

but not pulling typhon is whatever, she ain't even a limited

🛌

[deft badger]

because i have one lol

[celest bluff]

Why are you doing this

[deft badger]

i spend 4 weeks rolling a account i will be happy with

so this is it

😄

[foggy grove]

[spark sinew]

wasn't talking to you but sure

[deft badger]

i have schwarz now !

[celest bluff]

During Texalt pulling,
One account pull Nearl RK and W in a row

The other got Texalt in 70

[spark sinew]

how new are you you can consider rerolling on this limited

[deft nest]

2 weeks

old

[deft badger]

i was actually asking around if someone has a acc that has texas on it since i gave all my away even if someone has one i bet they are not going to give it to me 😄

[spark sinew]

saving for ray might make sense even outside of simping reasons, since it's degen->ray

[celest bluff]

That one didn't have Texalt

[deft badger]

i did have like 5 or 6 and gave them to new people in the past months 😄

[celest bluff]

You pulled Texalt and then gave it away?

[deft badger]

bro i rerolled

when i am bored i am rerolling

[celest bluff]

I can't be arsed enough to make a new email

[deft badger]

then i leave them standing around and if someone needs one i give them away, i actually say every time i am going to play on that 2nd acc then in the end i just gift them 😄

[deft badger]

proton email, 1min work

rerolling u use 10min emails

easy

[spark sinew]

people will tell to you that typhon will help quite a bit and they would be right but AK is not the kind of game that will punish you for not pulling for specific shit (in regular content) so just save for whoever you want. The only really big fuck ups you can make in this game is leveling wrong stuff on the right side of the base (slows account progression quite a bit, permanently)

[celest bluff]

Nope

Still can't be arsed enough

[spark sinew]

use qbitorent or something

[deft badger]

lol

[spark sinew]

anything but that

[deft badger]

doesn't utorrent have ads?

[celest bluff]

Well I didn't use it much

It been years

[deft badger]

actually nvm i shouldn't talk

[celest bluff]

You see, I not even bothered enough to uninstall something I didn't use

[deft badger]

ahh yes on each of those i have a AK acc xD

[jovial nest]

qbittorrent is better. uTorrent is now a massive selloff with so many ads

and notifications

[scarlet mortar]

insane cap game

[spark sinew]

p2w

[jovial nest]

rigged. look at all those pots!

[scarlet mortar]

yh true that max pot may made all the difference

[spark sinew]

jokes aside the trust bonuses might've played the part

but eh

[jovial nest]

i was about to say that

100% trust adds so muich

[scarlet mortar]

i mean that's why i had to scrounge up a level 1

my 4*s all have levels so i couldn't just sweep

[vernal lion]

this is cringe too lol

[scarlet mortar]

yh

it's free

[vernal lion]

and I don't think 1 star can beat this stage

[spark sinew]

yeah just yse rangeds on fountains

win the stage

[scarlet mortar]

the steam mechanic is extremely oppressive either for or against you

[vernal lion]

even with 1 star cat

[scarlet mortar]

it's basically a perma fragile

[celest bluff]

Well yes but no

Maybe

[high shadow]

ending 2 of is and ending 4 of is will always be the most miserable huh

[celest bluff]

Doctor: "oh what a nightmare"
*wake up

Also #ak-lore welcome you

[spark sinew]

ending 4 is easy on is2

i think they talk mechanically

[high shadow]

oh is it? thank god

i’m just like

[celest bluff]

Yeah is3 is more manageable

[high shadow]

is3 is wonderful

i love is3

is2 for all the rewards is so awful

nothing i tried worked for big bear so i simply reset until i had a cheese ein

*run

[spark sinew]

ok i can't do 6 op

[glass monolith]

Give me IS4 experience of digging snow

[spark sinew]

damage too weak

are sheep weak to arts

[scarlet mortar]

150 def 0 res

the thing though is 5k hp

[spark sinew]

ok, insider out

[celest bluff]

Did you guys make post your strat to make WR or something

[spark sinew]

i'm sure e0 1 can do much better

but i raised all the good ops

[scarlet mortar]

no i'm just flexing tbh

[glass monolith]

To be WR it need to be low op specific gimmick mald which is not my tier

[celest bluff]

I have gacha brain rot

Can only rarity abuse

[tall cairn]

Rarity abuse is good.

[scarlet mortar]

limited abuse (real)

[spark sinew]

don't use bottles, i think that might be your issue

[shell arch]

How do i spawncamp ls-7?

I have troubles in spawncamping

[scarlet mortar]

LS-7

[shell arch]

Enemies are usually alive in more than 2 seconds

[spark sinew]

i think sheep go to you almost immediately so i just hold blue

[scarlet mortar]

activate mlynar skill

[glass monolith]

As soon as enemy spawn use Weedy to push them into box

[shell arch]

Should i just ooga booga with ultrabuffed horn s1?

[spark sinew]

horn 1 🚮

[shell arch]

Actually you're right, i should try mwynaw

[tall cairn]

Indeed garbage. 🚮

[shell arch]

Thanks

[shell arch]

Redboxes can't be affected by pink farts?

[scarlet mortar]

yh they can't

[shell arch]

Interesting. I may or may not finally find mountain s3m3 use

[scarlet mortar]

the sheepbonis are stealthed though

camp ely

[shell arch]

Sheepbonis as the skateboarder? I used mountain to spawncamp it

[scarlet mortar]

the stacked ones specifically

[shell arch]

I'm just having trouble with the 6 last enemies on the center right. They're usually alive too long

[scarlet mortar]

they spawn pink where they go -> they're zomboni but sheep

[vernal lion]

kill them in red box, no cloud

[deft badger]

nah they just 3 hit my ops lol

[shell arch]

Any specific ops in mind to help me spawncamp them other than s1 horn?

[vernal lion]

why s1 Horn lol

[shell arch]

Long reach, high burst, easily scale with buffs

[scarlet mortar]

#strategy message

[dark glade]

mountain just bad then

[scarlet mortar]

keep your defenders in white mist

[deft badger]

bro i did it already

[dark glade]

[scarlet mortar]

[vernal lion]

use Suzuran, Mostima and Horn s2 to spawncamp last wave

[spark sinew]

?

[deft badger]

my words have been its hard not i cant do it

[tidal sedge]

That's probably why they almost always put a banned tile in front of red boxes. They learned from SN

[tall cairn]

Isn’t he?

[shell arch]

Thanks

[scarlet mortar]

the implication is that it's not that hard

[tall cairn]

Can’t be using ops with 0 range.

[dark glade]

~~oh yea anyone have maxed ling ~~

[vernal lion]

@scarlet ledge I have fixed my SL-8 auto well now
pt: I don't know why it repreat 1 more time, must be decorder bug lol

[tall cairn]

P1 fine S3M3 fine?

[spark sinew]

i have you

unless you need p6

[dark glade]

no its my alt

[spark sinew]

or s2 shenanigans

[tall cairn]

[spark sinew]

ah

[tall cairn]

Alt.

[dark glade]

btw should i e2 myrtle 1st

this event shop mats are garbage

[tall cairn]

[spark sinew]

i see you bought her skin

[tall cairn]

I mean, you could.

[scarlet mortar]

no that is Cringe

[celest bluff]

Enemy: *breath
Everyone: hydrogen bomb

[tall cairn]

But you should really E2 Perfumer instead.

[dark glade]

ok e2ing eyja

[celest bluff]

Well I did

[tall cairn]

Eyja can’t heal the dragons tho.

That’s why Eyja is bad trust.

[scarlet mortar]

her DP gen is already strong at E1, you gain almost nothing E2'ing her compared to an actual dps or utility op

[spark sinew]

she heals ED on them doesn't she

[tall cairn]

Yes.

[spark sinew]

already better than trashfurmer

🏃‍♂️

[tall cairn]

[scarlet mortar]

CC-type content doesn't even play by the old books anymore and they're kinda devalued now bc of how annoying they are

[spark sinew]

i love pyro with it's auto skill ban

[tall cairn]

Wdym auto skill ban?

[celest bluff]

I will be so bamboozled if I pulled chen-alt and Gavial-alt but not the main banner

[scarlet mortar]

-90% SP gen

[spark sinew]

everyone only uses their skill once

[scarlet mortar]

[dark glade]

the event shop and event give eyja e2 mats

im forced to

[tall cairn]

Aight e2 Eyja.

[celest bluff]

I skipped POO

[dark glade]

surely enough heals on ex and just ling/mwinar carry

[tall cairn]

My type of gameplay.

[celest bluff]

Hmm

Just use offensive recovery at this point

[scarlet mortar]

it's only when you're standing in reeds

also the t1 version of that risk is -50%

[tall cairn]

I’ve M6 Eyja and haven’t seen her usage yet.

[scarlet mortar]

so it's not that bad if you get the phase 4 tags and just use the t1

[celest bluff]

Also what did it mean by "annihilation"

[spark sinew]

it means that

[scarlet mortar]

4* only trimmed phase 4 so lmao

[vernal lion]

it is

[celest bluff]

Damn

[spark sinew]

did you miss all the previous "mini" annis

[vernal lion]

SL-MO-1

[scarlet mortar]

IC-MO-1 my beloved

[celest bluff]

DM count?

[vernal lion]

yes

[celest bluff]

Then I missed

[vernal lion]

and we all are lacking Typhon

[glass monolith]

DH, my not beloved

[solid dew]

yea it looked so easy with typhoon in CN

[spark sinew]

i would need to press one skill once

the misery

[celest bluff]

Boy I do hate DH

[vernal lion]

just Ifrit

[glass monolith]

Set up AFK on blue boxes
THAT ONE CIVILIAN AT 200: Guess i will die

[celest bluff]

Is chen-alt still considered broken?

[spark sinew]

depends on whom you ask

[vernal lion]

yea

[vernal lion]

for double hit with s3? yes she is

[glass monolith]

They are broken for reason, just because HG design shit to avoid too much simplification by broken operators don't fix it

[spark sinew]

she's less valuable than typhon for example for most people

you need to click the skill

[vernal lion]

typhon is NOT aoe dmg

[spark sinew]

i mean for most stages does it matter much

when everything entering the range dies

[vernal lion]

slugs

[celest bluff]

HG, you just need to release a op with kit like this "mucho damage", no essay long skill description

[dark glade]

mlynar is also not aoe damage

[tall cairn]

Just so happens to hit multiple targets.

[vernal lion]

keep in mind, don't underestimate the power of slug crowd

[spark sinew]

i think she was the first new operator as well

[jovial nest]

DH-MO, everyone's beloved

[celest bluff]

More

[spark sinew]

no

[celest bluff]

Yes

[jovial nest]

wth is Hauc's screen? You added sepia filter on AK?

[celest bluff]

Yellow light

[scarlet mortar]

dockworker boat jumpscare

[celest bluff]

Would never do DH

[tall cairn]

Why…..not?

[jovial nest]

he scard

[celest bluff]

Now hold on
They have buffed stats right

[vernal lion]

#strategy message

how about GG carry

[spark sinew]

does it have unavoidable damage to high ground?

at this point idr

[vernal lion]

no

[spark sinew]

or dragons actually need that extra bulk

huh

[scarlet mortar]

high tides and caster boats

also diver snipers

the casters are annoying bc of their splash

[celest bluff]

Corrosion damage on summons really is a bitch

[scarlet mortar]

you.. could avoid them, but summon management is annoying as expected

[jovial nest]

Dockworkers are like

Bully that turns into Crushers

[vernal lion]

that's why you have 3 oxy pump for that

[jovial nest]

not everyone tries to grind for that sticker

are all stickers given for free in perma mode?

[spark sinew]

oh, it's probably to keep your printer alive as well

[mossy ore]

yes

[jovial nest]

damn

[mossy ore]

im doing DH rerun on my CN acc

it makes all stickers available

very cool

[spark sinew]

early stages are probably such a stomp because of it

[vernal lion]

so then they all will gonna have full upgrade of IC car too

[mossy ore]

yis

[spark sinew]

although same deal with SN

[vernal lion]

[celest bluff]

Wait DH rerun?

[scarlet mortar]

me when the 0op
