strategy

[full finch]

damage is kinda mid but it's solid

but yeah I really can't understate how fucking terrible default splash is in arknights

[lapis hornet]

see coping splash radius is like coping chen hai

both irrelevant smh

[full finch]

chen hai t3

[lapis hornet]

ak just lack the mob density to make splash worth halving numbers

[full finch]

that's just splash radius

[lapis hornet]

esp when there's aoe that does full dmg

[full finch]

1.1 tile splash radius hits 1-2 targets unless there's blocking or unusual circumstances

but expanded radius hits on average 2-4 enemies

[lapis hornet]

you're coping ngl

well

[full finch]

I'm speaking from personal experience though

[lapis hornet]

or show me an example of when dusk s1 vs eyja s2 matters and not in a gimmicky way cause I just never ran into this situation

[full finch]

it doesn't matter

[lapis hornet]

I'm not trying to gotcha or anything I've just never experienced it

[timid spade]

Does the game prevent people who haven't played in a while from showing up as support units?

[polar crane]

dont think so

just have less friend

[timid spade]

Damn, I must be really unlucky then

[latent anvil]

[void terrace]

Keep rollin haha

Who do ya need?

[void terrace]

Need some high pot unit or something 0_o

[timid spade]

Nah I was just trying to borrow chalter, but I only have 2 chalter friends, one who hasn't played since august and another who has her M2 😅

I just went with the M2 cause the other was not showing up and the cooldown was increasing

[void terrace]

Rip

[timid spade]

I refreshed quite a bit though

[void terrace]

I have mylnar and ling up at the moment

Could swop to chalter for a bit

She's low pot tho

[timid spade]

Nah it's fine, I think the M2 one will do for now, thanks
I'm just trying S-4 CM

[void terrace]

Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I mean it should be enough but s-4 is pain

[void terrace]

Aak module is cracked as hell. His self sustain as long as there are enemies is just so good

Very weird s-4 cm clear starring penance aak in top right

[tidal sedge]

Oh fuck

[lapis hornet]

dem that looks like a whole cc clear lmao

[tidal sedge]

WHY

[lapis hornet]

are the s stages that hard

[tidal sedge]

Yes

At least for me

[void terrace]

They sent nightmarish if you white soda properly

But if you try to smooth brain brute force it's hard

Managing soda and white smoke is a pain. Sometimes you pop a soda and its just instantly nullified by that annoying enemy dying on the tile

[tidal sedge]

Of all the CM conditions they pick the absolute wors one for S-3....

[tidal sedge]

This is the bane of my existence for this event.

[void terrace]

S-3 is stack chalter mylnar thorns and whatever good ranged units you have and destroy dolly asap

[azure lichen]

SL-EX-7 is actual torture for my 1 month old acc, how do people do this lmao

[void terrace]

Then either stun all the flying sheep

Or pray chalter and mylnar cycle in time for them

[tidal sedge]

For me it was Mlynar, Pozy, and Chalter

[void terrace]

More than enough

I used ceobe mod 3

[tidal sedge]

Just took me like...10 tries lol

[void terrace]

I feel you

[tidal sedge]

Due to aforementioned "pop soda then immedistely have in changed!"

[void terrace]

Whelp at least that's the worst of it

S4 and S5 are not that incrementally harder than their original stages

[ancient hearth]

borrow golden glow w/ s3 if clearing the pink gas is too hard

[void terrace]

Interesting

Does gg work?

Global range I guess is op on white steam

[ancient hearth]

if she's on the white gas tile, yes

[azure lichen]

o, interesting

I've been borrowing a yato to nuke the casters when they appear

since texas seemed to instantly explode

[ancient hearth]

i'm not sure if S3 has enough damage to 1 shot them if they're in the pink gas

on the CM mode

[azure lichen]

Just trying to get a clear

[tidal sedge]

I borrowed chalter for NM, but i might borrow Mosti for CM.

Or should i stick to Chalter?

[ancient hearth]

I basically camped left side, had GG kill the first casters, then spawn white gas on the top so that saria and 1 caster can hold it

white gas means the sheep do, I think, 25% damage to you?

basically means that any healing defender should be able to tank the casters

unless this is some shit like an E0 gummy

[void terrace]

Wait ex 7 isn't that bad

[azure lichen]

I've been using an E1 Gummy, and she seemed okay in white steam

[void terrace]

I cleared it with my enimity squad

[azure lichen]

although sometimes it got spooky

[ancient hearth]

Ex7 is fine as long as you get white steam on your high ground ops and front liners

[ancient hearth]

otherwise the caster sheep have a fun day

[orchid talon]

Does anyone here have a mountain I can borrow

[void terrace]

Sl ex 7 clear with enimitu

[azure lichen]

das a lot of 6 stars

[void terrace]

I used the same strat for cm

[azure lichen]

I got like 2

[void terrace]

Oh shit rip

[ancient hearth]

show roster

[tidal sedge]

Id say its more frustrating than actually hard tbh

[void terrace]

Yeah

[azure lichen]

I can feel the clear in my hands, I just need to time things better

[ancient hearth]

10 hours later

[azure lichen]

A clear is a clear

I'm saving all my pulls for the upcoming joint operation banner

[void terrace]

If an enimity squad can do it a normal squad with a shit ton of healing can too

[azure lichen]

I want all of those chars, they look cool

[tidal sedge]

And iirc all four are really good

I have 2 of them

[orchid talon]

SOS looking for mountain friend

I spent 3 minutes refreshing guards and couldn’t find one

[tidal sedge]

Oof

[orchid talon]

Too many guards in the game lmao

[void terrace]

Which stage?

[tidal sedge]

I can put him on my support if you want. S2M3 E2Lvl60

[void terrace]

If it's s5 anything works lmao

On the right side

The lane is super weak

[orchid talon]

Hmm

I mean I guess I could slap mudrock back there instead

Just dunno if I can get the dp gen fast enough

[void terrace]

Uhh maybe not enimity

You have fish squad?

[orchid talon]

Uhh I have a gladiia but no specalter

[void terrace]

Specter normal with gladia mod 3 can hold it

With good skill timing of s3

[orchid talon]

Does gladiia need to be deployed I forgor

[void terrace]

^boop

Gladia can pull the stupid smol sheep off whatever guard is in bottom left to prevent them from being pink misted. Alternatively just use her to freeze the big sheep in place while golden glow s2 or ceobe kills them

This clear is super overkill

Yeah gladia needs to be deployed

[orchid talon]

Xtorsion#4376

Idk if I have you added yet

[ancient hearth]

Seems perfectly doable with just gg, one other caster, and a bunch of healing.

[azure lichen]

I'll have to try that then

I never really liked goldenglow's playstyle tho

[ancient hearth]

Just remember that you need white gas on your blockers and ops in range of the wizard sheep

[orchid talon]

Nah that’s what I thought then I owned her

She’s great lol

Esp with this mechanic, white spread global is so clutch

[void terrace]

I should have tried that lol

Brute forced too much of this event with ceobe

[azure lichen]

Ceobe is pretty neat, I like the hungry doggo

Dang that Saria Nearl combo

I want both of them

[deft badger]

why do i see on my alt only support ops of friends

did i turn off something

[azure lichen]

wtf goldenglow is godlike? I got an instant clear with her

was like activating a cheat code

[ancient hearth]

this man has been converted

anyways, she's on the standard banner at the moment if you want to throw your pulls to the mercy of the rng gods

though that'll put your savings for future banners at risk

[orchid talon]

LMAO

[azure lichen]

Nah, she's great but I like the joint op more

[orchid talon]

Yep Goldenglow is great, her stats seem mediocre but then her things explode and everything dies

[azure lichen]

The last goldenglow I used tho seemed to have a different skill

which is probably why I didn't like her

[orchid talon]

Also Ty mountain OP, cleared

Kyostin cheater that’s me

Now I can afford that Surtr skin 😂

[deft badger]

s4 reapers do top side solo...
saw a video someone posted with penance ++++
self sustain op + yato s3
or just reaper for the range of the atk so that soda can be placed to their left side

[lapis hornet]

fuuu I forget to do all these break 5 soda missions

[deft badger]

hahaha

hf

[tidal sedge]

S3 CM IS BULLSHIT

[ancient hearth]

borrow Ines

if holding dolly in place is the issue

[deft badger]

dolly isn't going anywhere if u knock him down xD

he has yato and texas

which shouldn't be a problem

[tidal sedge]

Ok. There are like...20 othet add

There are other enemies besides dolly you know...

And in CM they move faster
INCLUDING THE FREAKING TORNADOS

[tidal sedge]

I need Chalter tho

[deft badger]

and u have the most broken ops in the game

[tidal sedge]

...

Hard to use them when everyone is dying or one of the flyers just goes right past

[deft badger]

s3 texas

they ain't flying anymore

[tidal sedge]

There are the torandos too

Which were already fast. Now they are moving at 4× speed

[deft badger]

texas again

[tidal sedge]

...

Fine

[orchid talon]

Ines is really good for that one

[deft badger]

2nd eyja s2 1 hits them

and u have eyja and i bet urs is on s3 sitting in some corner AA

[orchid talon]

Oh dang they dont let you auto deploy cm

[celest solstice]

Im scared of sl-s-4, I saw Kukki stream and saw him struggle man, heres my current team and my other leveled ops, can someone at least give me an idea how to approach this?

[orchid talon]

Kyostin goated me for this one

Would recommend

[celest solstice]

I would want to refrain for now

[orchid talon]

Normal mode was fine but CM was a nightmare

Are you doing NM or CM?

[deft badger]

u are fine use casters for bot left maybe borrow a reaper for top right or use ur ops

if u can output enough DP for penance

[celest solstice]

Penance for top right?

[deft badger]

yes someone has to hold them in place so that u can yato over wall or u use a reaper

which can do it solo

[celest solstice]

Penance or Mudrock

[deft badger]

one of those

or gladiia with module

or reaper

[orchid talon]

You can also use medic + blaze for top right

[celest solstice]

Gladiia isnt raised

[orchid talon]

That’s what I did

They can 2 man it

[deft badger]

and ur medic did survive sheeps shooting on cm?

[celest solstice]

I wanna try Penance but which skill? S3?

[orchid talon]

Is this NM or cm?

[deft badger]

did it survive on cm or not xD

[celest solstice]

normal

[orchid talon]

No not on cm

Cm I had to Kyostin I admit

[deft badger]

i just wanna know if i can say after taht u can use a healer on cm as well 😄

[quick pecan]

who should i bring

[deft badger]

but i don't think the healer survives the sheeps lol

[celest solstice]

Ima go try to Mon3tr Penance Eyja and Lin

[orchid talon]

Yeah CM is a load of bs lmao

[quick pecan]

couldn’t get a second guard ticket for e2 exalt

[orchid talon]

I mean honestly can’t mountain solo hold top right

[deft badger]

don't know i never do phantom without lumen and blocking his ass in place XD

[orchid talon]

Deadass

[ancient hearth]

More than enough. Just borrow Ines to deal with the invis sheep that camp on the top middle

Use ranged dps and Mizuki to burst down the tornades

[deft badger]

depends when skateboard comes

[ancient hearth]

or gravel to detonate them early

[deft badger]

what whit u and ines lol

[ancient hearth]

the invis fuckers must die

[deft badger]

well they die anyway lol

[celest solstice]

RAHHHHH

[deft badger]

u have to yato over wall

place soda on the wall

[ancient hearth]

use the damn bottles

[deft badger]

and yato

[ancient hearth]

this was rougly my setup

you need to make sure your blockers are in white steam, it lowers the damage taken from the sheep by 75%

and throw frds or binding effects at the tornados

[quick pecan]

ok never mind

that was really easy

💀

[orchid talon]

If you put mylnar on that tile

He can help clear the mobs that monetr are dealing with

[ancient hearth]

bruhhhhh

[glass monolith]

Give bottle to mudrock why you hate her

[ancient hearth]

the event mechanics

y u n read them

the sheep are tanky af in the pink fart, and you take a lot more damage while you're in the pink fart

you gotta clear it

[orchid talon]

Gotta put the bottles on high ground + mudrock spin hits them too

[ancient hearth]

mudrock can directly attack the bottles on high ground in her attack range

just point her down

[deft badger]

and that will do what? sheep stills standing on purple

[ancient hearth]

use frd to do the same to create white steam in front of her

or cheat by borrowing gg and putting her on a geyser

like I am

[deft badger]

or u just take a reaper

[orchid talon]

You can put bottle on the high ground where sheep stand

[deft badger]

and not gg

[orchid talon]

And mudrock spin will break

[ancient hearth]

reaper will do too

[orchid talon]

And/or yato it

[deft badger]

or u place soda and send yato with s3

[ancient hearth]

point is, that mudrock needs help

[orchid talon]

First event where I see yalter s3 really shine

Also cuz I’m bad

[deft badger]

which i told them like 15min ago 😄

[celest solstice]

Done

Should I torture myself with sl-s-5?

[ancient hearth]

I see a rat

[deft badger]

s5 is easy

[celest solstice]

👀

[orchid talon]

S5 is only easy if you know wtf to do

[ancient hearth]

S4 CM first

[celest solstice]

Im sorry, I just saw Kukki struggle for an hour

[orchid talon]

Idk I beat my head on it for over an hour with no progress

[deft badger]

i don't know who that is xD

[celest solstice]

Kukkikaze

[deft badger]

but took me 3 trys to figure out a way to handle stupid casters

[orchid talon]

Does anyone know if puller is good for the annhilation mission

I think I see some holes by the right side, haven’t tried it yet

[ancient hearth]

borrow krooster to stun the helicopter sheep and drop them

[celest solstice]

Well I at least k ow I should yato s3 the fuck out of the casters

[orchid talon]

Oh it’s flying dudes coming over the top

I understand now

[deft badger]

u don't have to actually they are kinder weak

for anni

[orchid talon]

Just make sure to put a bottle between yato and the casters to guarantee they’re in white steam

[celest solstice]

What scares me tho is dolly line of death

And the left line

[orchid talon]

MLYNAR is the answer

Just put him in a solo column to eat it

[celest solstice]

I roughly have an idea for the right, using Eyjafjalla and mountain

[orchid talon]

And have ppl ready to pop bottles on him

Mountain can solo right side btw

Balanced unit

[celest solstice]

But

But the sheepnados

[ancient hearth]

gravel to pop them

[celest solstice]

How about left lane tho

Other scary

[orchid talon]

Put everything you have on the left side

Basically

[celest solstice]

Wont dolly fuck me up?

[orchid talon]

MLYNAR taunt

On his own column

You might wanna borrow an eyjaberry to keep him alive tho

[celest solstice]

I do not have an eyjaberry

[orchid talon]

Thus, borrow lol

[celest solstice]

I refuse to, would honeyberry work?

[orchid talon]

Yea

Should be fine

As long as you keep him on white steam with bottles

[ancient hearth]

needs another healer to be safer

2 wizards will kill him if he's in pink fart

with just 1 healer

[lapis hornet]

okay I rushed ex til the dreaded s4 let's see how tough it is

[orchid talon]

Yeah, they can probably add in reedic to help with that

[turbid badge]

oki

[wooden blaze]

Yes

Fuck

I finally beat it.

Finally.

After 11 hours later.

[tropic valve]

nice!

[celest solstice]

I have no idea how to position it

[wooden blaze]

I barely beat it.

The boss was near the blue box.

But thank God Amyia destroyed the coke in time.

[celest solstice]

Guh I might Kyostinv this

Nvm theres no kyo vid yet

Hahahahaha

[turbid badge]

just play normally

[wooden blaze]

Guys, is Sl-S-5 CM harder than SL-EX-8 CM?

[ancient hearth]

easier I think

the map placements for S 5 are a lot more generous I feel

in terms of bein able to deathball your dps units all in 1 spot

[vernal lion]

it's CAR time

[alpine pumice]

I think if you can beat s5 normal you’ll beat s5 cm unless your stats are too low

[deft badger]

where is typhone

[vernal lion]

wait for IS4

[deft badger]

they are already running late with typhone xD

[vernal lion]

same as Dorothy

global schedule isn't same as CN anymore

[glass monolith]

Died in 4 way car accident

[vernal lion]

Imma get ready to enjoy this event again

[deft badger]

mlynar in hiding

[vernal lion]

GG carry fr

[deft badger]

saw that cars like 1000 times from u guys and i still don't know which map that's on lol

[glass monolith]

mini annihilation from IC

[vernal lion]

IC-MO-1

[deft badger]

since i am extra extra stupid

now i am going to ask whats IC

lol

[plain knot]

whoever designed SL S 5 CM must be a genius

balansknight is not working :c

[wooden blaze]

Nah, they are sadistic.

@vernal lion Sorry, I forgot to mention that your strat didn't work out for me.

[vernal lion]

this is the gacha game when you only have fun when you know how the stage work

[plain knot]

Found a strat that worked from an asian channel

[vernal lion]

repost for n time

[plain knot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCK-pqZgdwo

This is honestly the best after I tried everything

and it works for CM

still mlynar tho

[wooden blaze]

Lmao

I don't have any 6 stars

They are all e0.

[plain knot]

oof

wait for kyo then

[vernal lion]

explanation, he only plays 5 star and 4 star

[wooden blaze]

Well, I already defeat it in normal. Now, I'm seeing if I can do it by borrowing 6 star for cm.

[vernal lion]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGGVMjKRB0Q

[wooden blaze]

Nope.

[thorny silo]

Can Executor alter hold the right lane in SL-S-5 CM? I see people use Mountain but I don't have him

[wooden blaze]

I'm not big brain like ZPKF.

[plain knot]

it's doable but you need Mlynar

for CM

[tidal sedge]

Gfdi

[vernal lion]

if he doesn't die to the caster and tornado, then it should work

[plain knot]

No
cuz he needs to hit to heal

[wooden blaze]

Yea. But the thing is that pink little shit keeps attacking him.

[plain knot]

lmao

[wooden blaze]

Baiting doesn't work.

[thorny silo]

He can hit the sheep, is the heal not enough?

[plain knot]

bait with gravel

[deft badger]

he can plss

[plain knot]

there is a downtime for the sheep
so he hits air and bites the dust

[vernal lion]

Mlynar has taunt, what you are gonna bait lol

[deft badger]

did try it like 10min ago

just have to time skills ofc

[vernal lion]

you suppose to use him as a BAIT

[plain knot]

oh yeah

[thorny silo]

I see you mean the boss will kill him while there's nothing to hit

[deft badger]

do u have ines?

[thorny silo]

Yes

[deft badger]

place her behind him if u do and just leave him be

[plain knot]

caster sheeps will kill him before that

[thorny silo]

I see

[deft badger]

ines first then palce a soda infront of her let her pop

place him on the tile and he is fine

[vernal lion]

even with 75% dr from white cloud, caster sheep still hits like a boss

[deft badger]

did try it out, wanted to know if he can take it 😄

[vernal lion]

<@&586570970345635868>

[thorny silo]

Ok I'll try Ines + Executor alter

[deft badger]

i wanted to do penance actually but i cant generate enough dp

[thorny silo]

Yeah I thought of Mudrock but there won't be enough dp

[spark sinew]

[deft badger]

btw u can kill stupid casters on spawn if u have yato

[spark sinew]

if your exalter dies it's skill issue

plan and simple

[wooden blaze]

So, wtf is happening?

[spark sinew]

i'm pretty sure if you kill tornadoes even pluma can hold

https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1n841197dv/

[deft badger]

btw they kinder don't do dmg

[spark sinew]

took like 5 seconds to find exalter standing in a very ballsy spot

[wooden blaze]

Was I too slow with bait?

[deft badger]

is it because he is standing on white?

[vernal lion]

Mlynar has taunt tho, read his talent

[spark sinew]

on cm, doing fine

[wooden blaze]

Shit. No wonder.

[thorny silo]

Nice, I'll get him e2

[spark sinew]

oh, mind you his module and masteries are big spikes

at least module is

but he probably can do it in a safer spot

[thorny silo]

That will be abit of a problem cause his trust is still 10

[tidal sedge]

Once again.
Dolly is FUCKING BULLSHIT

[spark sinew]

sad times

[turbid badge]

humus op

[vernal lion]

see you again in TfN ss4

[spark sinew]

you can try and see i tried a bit of 5* gaming and moduleless pluma held the right on mountain spot

[turbid badge]

Ez

[turbid badge]

noobie pluna

[spark sinew]

leaked when tornadoes came because 5* damage kinda sucks and i couldn't kill one in time

[gray stone]

I'm killing myself

[turbid badge]

bad

[vernal lion]

[turbid badge]

its just a sheep

[spark sinew]

it's fine, peace and quiet now

[gray stone]

My CN account is not geared for this

[spark sinew]

only blocked messages

[turbid badge]

noo

💢

[gray stone]

wtfart you blocked teta

[turbid badge]

oh

[turbid badge]

it regulat

[spark sinew]

he's a chronic recidivist

no more second chances

[turbid badge]

im not a fugitive

im just a ako player

[thorny silo]

I see, then I will stick with Executor alter

[spark sinew]

well i meant more like

if pluma holds, exalter should

but i didn't test him without the module so i urge you to practice it first etc

[thorny silo]

I'll try to put him in a trust farm stage

[turbid badge]

u use plum s1

right

[spark sinew]

no

pluma s1 sucks

it dies without a reason

s2 held though

before you say anything

[vernal lion]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDYXLCoVYgM&ab_channel=AcELord

another masterpiece

[tropic valve]

truly LMG gaming

[tidal sedge]

Mfer

Too many sheep moving too gd fast

Who thought this was ok?!

[vernal lion]

[tidal sedge]

I feel some HG designers like making infuriating maps like this

[spark sinew]

deploy another vang

chalter should help a lot

like 3 of your units are not deployed during 21/50 🤔

[tidal sedge]

Ok

[tropic valve]

Manticore solved the too fast issue

[spark sinew]

well not like "deploy" but add another one to the team i mean

manticore is great in this event yeah

you could probably use ethan but it won't be as consistent

[brazen stream]

S stages to gatekeep weaker players

[tidal sedge]

I had to take mrytle off for moyntain so i can protect the right bottom boxes

[plain knot]

Finally done
This strategy helped

[tidal sedge]

Sorry

That was uncalled for

Just getting very frustrated.

[tidal sedge]

That just sounds unfair

[cosmic thicket]

I think these stages are an outlier

SN, IC, IS (mostly) even CW were doable low end

[spark sinew]

those aren't too bad i think if played really... sharply?

[tidal sedge]

Boy is buffed to all hell lol

[spark sinew]

the mechanic is very polarizing

like for s-5 if you don't know when casters sheeps spawn and your bottle is on cd and your unit is on pink tile

god help you

because it's going to die

[tidal sedge]

If you had a set amount of bottles say...20. It would be better than it being on a cooldown

[spark sinew]

ideally you have like 2 max

but the refresh, like currently

but that would maybe make it too easy to clear stages blindly
hg doesn't really want it

[tidal sedge]

Or have the white steam have a wider range

But idk
Think i will take a break before i thow my phone across my room

[spark sinew]

done s4/5?

[tidal sedge]

No

[spark sinew]

can do them before CMs

[tidal sedge]

Also need to let my sanity go up

[spark sinew]

only one sanity per loss as well
so can just ignore practice plans

[tidal sedge]

I rately use practice plans anyway bc i usually do it in practices but still srtuggle in the real mission

[turbid badge]

wow nice attack scale

[vernal lion]

atk scale is busted fr

[turbid badge]

that is like all my soege

soege

10 siege s3

[spark sinew]

remember when patriot's defense was considered high

[turbid badge]

lol

did they use a mine

[glass monolith]

Nope

[turbid badge]

probably rigt

Oh

yeah stonks

whats sp costs

[tropic valve]

good ol' days

[glass monolith]

Only Suzu 50% fragile, 96% Stainless buff and Skalter and i forgot Warf

[spark sinew]

forgot warf

[glass monolith]

28 on SL7, his archetype gain 2 SP per second when on 30% hp

[turbid badge]

A

his talent

Salao

[lapis hornet]

there's a vid on yt of myrtle killing pat

[tropic valve]

tfw arc shields from Lone Trail have more DEF than Patty

[lapis hornet]

with enough buffs you can do anything

[turbid badge]

well ofc

[tropic valve]

and they aren't even elites, they're trash mobs

[spark sinew]

myrtle is too strong

wasn't there yato killing patriot

2* yato

[turbid badge]

👍

[glass monolith]

There was Justice Knight killing Degen

[spark sinew]

but still, his defense is laughable nowadays
we have shit like is3 ed4 with each jelly having around that def and 90 res

[turbid badge]

[glass monolith]

Meanwhile Shu event boss has 4000 ATK and DEF

[turbid badge]

sheet

[tropic valve]

and said boss having 2760 DEF

[turbid badge]

wtf

[lapis hornet]

is shu actually good

[turbid badge]

shamare

[turbid badge]

[spark sinew]

weak baits
she's strong

[tropic valve]

4000 is the level where you bring Shamare and she makes the boss as frail as Patriot

[turbid badge]

lol all these shu trol vids

[lapis hornet]

the teleport looks fun ngl

not sure how many ppl will use it effectively tho

[turbid badge]

practical in is4

ig

[spark sinew]

event boss is another hitcount abuse victim i thought

[glass monolith]

RA2

[turbid badge]

would need to watch more videos

[quick pecan]

the grass stays if she’s retreated right

[spark sinew]

you probably peel it off to reasonable numbers

or bring Spozy nvm too big
bring uncle ig

[quick pecan]

this is probably the only enmity regen i would recc bc she can be a normal healer / guardian without wasting a slot just for an enmity heal on its own

[acoustic ridge]

ye

[spark sinew]

that's a name

[spark sinew]

can she even heal enmity directly
you need another operator to be attached in one of the 4 cardinal directions right

seems convoluted for like 75hp or what it was

[quick pecan]

ppl mentioned frd

plus with module she applies it in a cross wherever she’s deployed

[lapis hornet]

hmmge

who can solo top right in s4?

[spark sinew]

just make that redeploy kill whatever is harassing your enmity

[lapis hornet]

can exalt do it

[spark sinew]

yes

[quick pecan]

i just think if i’m gonna cope enmity heal

[spark sinew]

isn't that the base effect

[quick pecan]

i might as well bring a slot that actually does something more significant than coping perf or low rarity bards

[spark sinew]

oh, when she deployed

[quick pecan]

skalter is ofc still skalter

[spark sinew]

how often do they need heal though

🤔

[quick pecan]

realistically i probably won’t

[turbid badge]

she can only hit operatoes right

with the seed

[lapis hornet]

why you need to heal enmity

[turbid badge]

cuz we do

[quick pecan]

i’m just saying she is at least the most general use op that doesn’t feel like you’re trolling ur squad by bringing her

[turbid badge]

[lapis hornet]

I thought ppl coped perf for like ling

[spark sinew]

saria was the same

[lapis hornet]

or is that boomer tech now

[turbid badge]

i can heal my deppcola summoj

wore

more

[spark sinew]

skalter ling clears a lot of shit

[lapis hornet]

shouldn't discord when you're high smh

[spark sinew]

skalter s1

[turbid badge]

hey

[turbid badge]

Yea

[spark sinew]

stalls bosses, holds basically everything etc

[glass monolith]

Next keyword to be released will be Shu immunity

[spark sinew]

perfurmer is probably used when the pressure is super low but the flashy clears are with skalter now

[wooden blaze]

Yes.

I finally did it.

It was easier since I borrowed Mlynar.

[deft badger]

every op asks for sl7

sl6

like 5 of the ops i wanna level up want kohl

[wooden blaze]

Man, I hope future events aren't frustrating like this event.

[deft badger]

i hope they are... enough with easy events 😄

this one was easy btw

[wooden blaze]

Well, they aren't easy for me.

I really didn't like this feeling of playing whole day so I could pass the stage.

[wooden blaze]

[wooden blaze]

What is the annoyance level?

Is it like this event?

[cosmic thicket]

it's another "play by the rules and you'll be fine" i think

[deft badger]

spend 8 hours remembering every skill activation i do have to do at which poin of the stage in pinchout, h12-4 spend like 16hours i think to figure out a start that's going to work

[lapis hornet]

wtf exalt gets killed by the casters he can't solo

i was lied to

[vernal lion]

wtf pink cloud

[cosmic thicket]

pink cloud moment

[jovial nest]

White steam his ass first

[deft badger]

soda not on cd, where soda should be i see skalter pet

lol

[spark sinew]

low op cm

[quick pecan]

@spark sinew oh also i lied

shu on deploy only does grass on her tile

cross grass only on actual heals from skills

[alpine pumice]

clear with op team first then redo it with the team you want to play with for less pressure

[glass monolith]

Utage S2 meta?... Fuck i am trying

Kazemaru the grass spreader

[muted quest]

how to do this

my people keep getting set on fire

[quick pecan]

ok zuo le somehow broke all my expectations

is this even a musha lmfaoo

the downtime does not exist on s2

[quick pecan]

what

i mean shu heals

on deploy she will do grass on her deployed tile only

with heals from skill she will do cross

[vocal cave]

am i good for the rest of the S stages (im at s-4) or should i swap some of these out

[tropic valve]

more than good

[cosmic thicket]

looks fine for S-4, idk how you handle left lane in S-5

[jovial nest]

it's hilarious that Stainless gadget has to be there due to off-rec

[loud edge]

Some who cleared this annihilation please help my boy out

[cosmic thicket]

that's stainless S1 though?

[jovial nest]

oh it is?

[cosmic thicket]

why else would it be pointed at him

wait it could be s2

[acoustic fox]

Eyalter made this real ez

[jovial nest]

well

[cosmic thicket]

but usually buff armies will use s1

[jovial nest]

it is pretty fun for some to do such huge setups for a nuke

can't blame em

[loud edge]

I don't know what @muted quest has for this stage

[muted quest]

i use eyja healer, bagpipe, archetto, lappland, specter, perfumer, silence, gummy, cuora, myrtle, rockrock

[jovial nest]

they mentioned the fire being the issue

[acoustic fox]

I just know im fuked for SL-S-5 CM

[jovial nest]

so Eyja healer should help a lot

[muted quest]

i started trying to do the event stages instead

because i can do that one later

i think

[loud edge]

👍

[acoustic fox]

No mynar or moutain

Not much to work with lol

[loud edge]

Post ops

[cosmic thicket]

I don't have either but I got it done with this squad + mountain borrow

[muted quest]

thsi my team

[loud edge]

C

[acoustic fox]

I was able to beat non cm but that was a close close call

[cosmic thicket]

Wait what the actual fuck is ur account

Why do you have max pot thorns

[loud edge]

Is that all the 6 stars you have?

[vernal lion]

I feel sorry for you but you can't do that anni with this roster lol

[acoustic fox]

I started like the 8th of jan

[acoustic fox]

Lost alot of 50/50 to thorns

[vernal lion]

this current anni is kinda stat check tho

[jovial nest]

yeah Firelight anni is...quite the stat check

[muted quest]

ok do i have to get more of my people to the 2 promotion

[jovial nest]

for all parameters

[acoustic fox]

But i like thorns

[jovial nest]

tanky, require a decent amt of aspd and damage, and healing

[cosmic thicket]

No shot you dumped like 200 pulls into thorns doro

[acoustic fox]

Nope

Most was from trying to get swire

[jovial nest]

hope he's worth it for you

[loud edge]

Its not that it's just the current selection is kinda bad

[jovial nest]

I've stopped loving Thorns after a while

used to be a huge Thorns user

[loud edge]

Can you show me all your ops? @muted quest

[vernal lion]

in my opinion, that squad will do nothing much to enemies because they are kind tanky

[muted quest]

ok

[jovial nest]

Firelight feels like an anni that could actually be troublesome for most early/mid players

the mob type and gimmick ain't kind

[muted quest]

gimme a sec im doing event stage rn

[jovial nest]

especially when Eblana is there to burn it all anyway on phase 2

[loud edge]

I would take this anni or the Navis one any day

[jovial nest]

over what?

UT?

LE?

those are indeed more toxic types

[vernal lion]

those are no joke

[loud edge]

I think it was shipyard something

[muted quest]

this stage too hard

[vernal lion]

it's not hard, it's just stat check

and op pick

[jovial nest]

I don't blame you. We saw your squad. That specific map either gets destroyed by Chalter with a nice amt of help

or explodes your frontline

[muted quest]

chalter?

[jovial nest]

Chen Alter

Chen Summer

borrow her

[muted quest]

my friend has ch'en the holungday

but it isnt summer

[vernal lion]

S stages suppose to be a hard challenge,
so it's not like everyone could just deploy op and win

[loud edge]

Shipyards

[jovial nest]

i meant which anni WOULDN'T you take and prefer Firelight

[muted quest]

this one?

[jovial nest]

SN one is really difficult for you?

[loud edge]

Oh ok my bad

[vernal lion]

yes, but, you still need to know how to counter the enemies in stage

there are big man, tornado and caster sheep

which are your main issue

[muted quest]

i know white stuff means less damage

[jovial nest]

just try to have white on your ops

as much as possible

[acoustic fox]

I used alot of fast redeploys to pop the clouds and bigman before they get to the other side

[vernal lion]

yea white stuff is good, until the other sheeps just paint whole the map with pink and the tile your op on too

[tall cairn]

Use FRDs to tank the tornados before they get to the other side yeah.

[jovial nest]

thats why Skateboard duo is the worst enemy

invis

[drifting agate]

Ebenholz was surprisingly useful for sheep anni

[jovial nest]

and paints everything pink

[drifting agate]

Stopped most sheep bombs in their tracks

[cosmic thicket]

Ange did well too

[muted quest]

wow she does lots of damage

[loud edge]

Real?!?

[cosmic thicket]

Very proud of her

[muted quest]

but too much exploding black stuff

[drifting agate]

And W just blast all flying sheep into pits

[jovial nest]

sounds like that'll only work on maps with few sheep mobs

for Eben to work specifically well to hit tornadoes

Chalter S3 works the best for it imo

just have to not....mistime the S3

[muted quest]

sheep too strong nvm

[drifting agate]

Can send setup in a few

[jovial nest]

ummmm

[muted quest]

they explode medic then anything i put down

[jovial nest]

aim Chalter to the right?

also Chalter on cooldown?

why?

[muted quest]

i used skill

[acoustic fox]

What I used to first clear sl s 5

[jovial nest]

use it when the troublesome mobs arrive

don't use it asap

[muted quest]

ok

[vernal lion]

let me phrase this, you need to time the skill in right moment

not just use it in a waste way like that

[muted quest]

if i put her facing right, how will she hit the sheep on the bottom?

she has small range

[vernal lion]

you just don't know how to use her well

once you have played a lot with them, you will know tho

[muted quest]

going to try something

[vernal lion]

Arknights is still a strategy game after all

[loud edge]

Should I give him the forbidden one or would she not be of any help? (Ling)

[vernal lion]

if you have Chalter and Mlynar, you have like 70% chance to win this event already

[muted quest]

use skill on these guys or the tornado

[vernal lion]

bait the attack of the big man

he can throw a conehead sheep on your op

[muted quest]

i had to use it

[jovial nest]

I mean she hits anyone that spawns on those RED highlights. Sometimes it's enough to kill them in one shot if you borrow an E2 90 Chalter

[loud edge]

What stage is this?

[jovial nest]

EX-6

[vernal lion]

SL-EX-6

[shrewd hull]

“She?”

[vernal lion]

she = chalter

[loud edge]

Chen alter

[shrewd hull]

Ah

[acoustic fox]

Chalter is nice but i need mynar now...

[jovial nest]

well, good luck...

[loud edge]

I don't remember does that stage have flying enemies?

[muted quest]

the moment her skill goes off i lose.............

[jovial nest]

his actual banners are finished. You gotta risk it up on normal banners

with worse rates per ops

[muted quest]

i have to use her skill too

[vernal lion]

borrow Ling

[acoustic fox]

Thats how i got most of my other 6stars

[loud edge]

That's what I'm saying

[jovial nest]

Specter's still alive

you haven't leaked at all

or lost yet

[muted quest]

nah

i los

t

[jovial nest]

or is that before everything goes to shit

[vernal lion]

middle is leaked bruh

[jovial nest]

oh the pause button is blocking it

thought it was a bottleneck

do you not have more ranged DPS?

[drifting agate]

The occasional tornado goes off but you can heal that

[loud edge]

Is there any flying?

[jovial nest]

they're just being blasted by tornadoes and the caster harass

[muted quest]

no

[jovial nest]

cookie if you still have some practice plans

try to use Chalter's S3 a bit more later

see if you can survive the earlier parts without her

[vernal lion]

I think you need to show him how to bait the Big Man attack tho

[jovial nest]

they have Gravel

[acoustic fox]

I pointed chalter down

[loud edge]

Just use ling if you really want to clear the stage

[jovial nest]

that should be kinda obvious

anyways

[acoustic fox]

And used gravel and other quick deploys

[jovial nest]

try Ling

[vernal lion]

no, like, he doesn't know that, you know?

[acoustic fox]

To pop clouds

[muted quest]

ling person didnt work

[muted quest]

the big dragons die

[acoustic fox]

Sacrifice gravel for the greater good

[vernal lion]

I think this is truly skill issue tho

[jovial nest]

ok

[loud edge]

What level Ling?

[muted quest]

90

[jovial nest]

to anyone still willing to help Cookie hard, try to setup a screenshare session

unless Cookie can't do that too

[muted quest]

i can probably do it until i win

[vernal lion]

nah, they need a video lol

[muted quest]

its what i usually do

[jovial nest]

so anyways

I really recommend at least

you make Chalter be on the geyser tile

she makes white steam a lot as long as there's enemies to hit

cause the decision to put her on the rightmost tile was weird and not as helpful

[vernal lion]

ok let me sacrificed some sanity lol

[jovial nest]

Naga, try to find a video first heh

[vernal lion]

I've already known each wave of enemy bruh

@jovial nest
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lO7YR18foQ0&ab_channel=LeoTse96

shit

[loud edge]

What's the pathing for ashy marsh?

[turbid badge]

for who

[vernal lion]

1. top left > top right
2. bottom left > bottom right > top right

and there are some cannoneer and caster spam in bottom middle

[alpine pumice]

maybe ranged tiles should also be in white fog to tank casters better. idk why there's a pink on one of them though

[loud edge]

I think I get what you're saying but not 100% sure

[muted quest]

it was easy trust

smh chen and ling bad

they didnt work

[loud edge]

@jovial nest big new

[muted quest]

i used the op character

[loud edge]

Thanks

[bold lance]

And Eblana just goes around in circles becuse fuck you

[jovial nest]

I guess in a way, Tex2 is easier to use since she basically is the most direct counter to tornados

And if she fails to kill it, she tanks it

[loud edge]

Perfect she can meet up with specalter, gg and Pozy at the same time

[bold lance]

Does he know?

[loud edge]

No I don't

[jovial nest]

So anyways, Cookie

Good luck in EX-7

I hated that map

[vernal lion]

let him cook

[loud edge]

Not even the worst one

[glass monolith]

This woman look hot, does she have a sister?

[loud edge]

Texas alter too now

[vernal lion]

hope so

[bold lance]

You should have put the whole shield part in the screenshot as well

[turbid badge]

ask her

[vernal lion]

actually should have made a gif for that

[acoustic fox]

Dose this look like it can beat sl s 5 cm?

[vernal lion]

looks fine

plan your deploy order first

[jovial nest]

sure looks like it.

ok first of all

the setup has a lot of options

i guess easiest is setting most on the left?

and only a self sustaining laner on the rightmost?

[acoustic fox]

That's what my plan is

[jovial nest]

the window to kill Dolly is a bit stricter

[vernal lion]

Mountain can solo right side, but you need to kill all the tornados before they reach to him

[jovial nest]

but there's enough time he idles

[acoustic fox]

I'm debating if chalter or exu should be on left gyzer

[vernal lion]

left, Exu to pop the shield faster, and Chalter to burst the boss

[cosmic thicket]

not sure what thorns is for

but then again your acc is like

[acoustic fox]

To pop bottles left side

[cosmic thicket]

in the state that it is

[jovial nest]

let them use Thorns

it's one of the most invested or built

might as well take advantage to whatever he can help in

[alpine pumice]

keep non carry operators on white tiles and have dolly nuke unused columns and should be fine

[acoustic fox]

That's what gravel is for

To bait the columns

[jovial nest]

oh yeah

[vernal lion]

yea but, you need to time the Gravel

[jovial nest]

keep forgetting column attacks are aggro-oriented

wait

you memorized when Dolly does it?

[acoustic fox]

Yeah

[tropic valve]

I also Gravel'd every column

[jovial nest]

aligns well with FRD cooldowns?

[alpine pumice]

gravel should be tanking tornados so an alternate to bait is good too. you only need to burst past first phase anyway

[tropic valve]

yep

[jovial nest]

huh

[acoustic fox]

It's like 1-2 seconds after she's off cooldown

[jovial nest]

Talulah strats

nice memories

FRD baiting almost aligned to the FRD cooldown is very JT8-3

[tropic valve]

but in JT8-3 you needed two FRD

[vernal lion]

you need 2 frd to bait 2 tornadoes

[acoustic fox]

The hard part is actually doing enough damage

[alpine pumice]

the left tornado should be dying to your dps

[jovial nest]

back then it was Red and Gravel for me

i had no Phantom back then

[tropic valve]

Phantom and Gravel for me

[jovial nest]

so killing Red crystals were rough

or i just didn't bother

and tanked it

[acoustic fox]

Only need one

[vernal lion]

yea I forgot you have Chalter

[acoustic fox]

Cause after a while I use Texas and Myrtle

To rotate in

[vernal lion]

I'm doing too much 5 star clear right now

[acoustic fox]

I leveled up gg, eya to 80

I cleared regular with them at 60

I just don't know if I have the damage

[vernal lion]

eyja, maybe.
gg, not highly likely

[acoustic fox]

Gg is to cover left side

[vernal lion]

drone caster atk is pretty ass

and funny enough

[acoustic fox]

She was doing fine at 60

For the most part

[vernal lion]

4 hp for 1 level

🤏

[muted quest]

anyone have a potential 6 texas the omertosa

i need her to be stronger

[vernal lion]

I don't think anyone here is a whale lol

[acoustic fox]

Then I'm planning on using using the extra deploys to pop the bigmans

I guess I'm a whale

[balmy jolt]

Can you knock enemies into the holes on SL 4?

[acoustic fox]

But I just started

[jovial nest]

Drone Casters will always have the low ATK growth based on subclass

same for Bards and Liberators

[vernal lion]

ugh there is no hole tho

[jovial nest]

but at least Liberators' ATK growth charging on subclass type makes it more prominent

btw

[acoustic fox]

Gonna atempt

[jovial nest]

water ain't holes

[acoustic fox]

Brbs

[jovial nest]

holes look like this btw

if it ain't looking like that

it ain't holes

[vernal lion]

remember when they make each hole for each tile instead of a long-sized or big-sized hole?

[loud edge]

Tex alter

[vernal lion]

that is some nice and old design for map

[jovial nest]

only DH gets to have priveleges of a REALLY HUGE hole

all dem holes

[loud edge]

Anyone else remember when the jetpack enemies would drop right into holes?

[jovial nest]

well, thats HG saying

LOOK THERE'S HOLES HERE

abuse this shit pls

cause some people just didn't use holes much in anni2

[alpine pumice]

idk how many people would think to use shaw at blue box without a guide

[loud edge]

Yeah I wonder who would do such a thing

[polar crane]

friend told them to

[alpine pumice]

close enough to a guide

[polar crane]

technically not using a guide

[jovial nest]

I meant Cliffy strats too

not just Shaw kicking Wraiths

[loud edge]

I just used more gun for them
