Thanks

[tidal sedge]

[high warren]

What you using for support

[tidal sedge]

No one

[high warren]

Ling can solo stage

Without even those cars

[tidal sedge]

How?

Omg.
Even with suzu i cant get all of them.

[high warren]

There's a video in arkrec

Can we throw links here?

Idk rules

[glass monolith]

As long as it is clear video i think yes

[high warren]

[glass monolith]

Jokes on you mission is use all 10 car pads btw

[tidal sedge]

I did that already

Im on CM

[green gazelle]

Hello can I ask for help for ic-7 the event and this is my current team

[polar crane]

use \/rectags next time

[random frost]

what challenges do you face

[green gazelle]

The cart

[random frost]

hard counters for cart are status inflicters
try a supporter for constant slow to reset their atk stack or a stun op like click

their base atk without stack is quite low

so your defenders should be able to survive at least

imo best counter for cart stack is ines

[green gazelle]

I don't have her

[random frost]

do you have supporters

podenco at least

goldenglow has stun rng on her drones but it’s kinda risky to rely on that

[sonic cargo]

Which cart btw?

[random frost]

i’m assuming the marble cart

that thing does hit hard

[sonic cargo]

Oh, the Volleyball thrower. I call it that way.

[random frost]

vending machine

[sonic cargo]

Lemme check

[green gazelle]

I only have this guys

[random frost]

proviso is quite good

you just need a slower to counter the carts

[foggy grove]

do you have car parts that gives cold/stun?

[scarlet mortar]

oh IC-7

arts damage

bottom text

[sonic cargo]

My advice, bring more defenders and try to deploy one of them as the last deployed operator. Bring more casters to cheese those volleyball thrower and the car

[scarlet mortar]

just have three defenders covering the lanes and rain arts damage

the volleyball carts die in the crossfire

[sonic cargo]

Yep. Goldenglow and Lava will do

[livid delta]

e2 Proviso

[vital arrow]

GG has stun RNG?

[ivory nimbus]

Carts are overpowered.

I had more difficulty struggling through the early stages without good parts than the EX stages when I've got all the stuff I need.

[high warren]

I missed it 2 times cuz misread and than filled whole Map with those ☠️

[void terrace]

Hmm is aak carnelian or aak lin better. In the mood to use a modal caster today

Aak lin has better cycling but carne has the firepower to go with aak

[high warren]

I still want that better cold timer one 💀

[foggy grove]

aak lin to insta charge her sp

[void terrace]

Cd drops to aaks cd which is 35/1.55 including ptilo which is 22 seconds?

With carne and ptilo it's 35s

Hmm yeah significant difference

honestly 22 seconds cd lin S3 dosent sound too bad

Cycling is better than mylnar for not too high end content since modals are the caster equivalent of liberators

Aaks cd can further be dropped by saria S2

By another 4 seconds in theory

So 18 to 20s cooldown of lin?

Lemme test

Yep about 20s cd on Lin assuming you end her skill the moment aak's ends

Pretty neat

[latent monolith]

Why would you have to end it instantly tho, you can go a bit longer too

[void terrace]

Slows it's cd with aak

[latent monolith]

Ig you expect around 23 sp from aak

But if more enemies hit her then you can get more free sp

[void terrace]

If you end it as asks skill ends it's perfect

[void terrace]

True

[random widget]

Help 🤧

[glass monolith]

Step 1. Hole half map with Gladiia S2

[random widget]

[dark glade]

step 1, plant your sunflower

[tropic valve]

step 1. use Schwarz

https://youtu.be/JzRRHpw7IP8?t=658
(emergency too btw)

btw I see you have 2 supporters, you might want more supporters or else you're gonna run out of cards fast

[jovial nest]

sprays Cirno

[tidal sedge]

what other ways are there to kill the alcohol lovers aside from arts dmg

[glass monolith]

Lethal dosage of cars

[random widget]

Whats the best stack for Goldenglow @tropic valve

Also should I take 4 supporters?

[vocal leaf]

GG wants 5 snipers or 4 and 1 caster/vang

[random widget]

Got it tysm

[tropic valve]

anti-dodge

[tidal sedge]

such as whaot

[tropic valve]

also 5x different stacks, if you're running that equipment

or 4 is prob enough

[tropic valve]

Schwarz, Pozy, Fartooth, NTRK, Kalt'sit

another option is silence like Lappland

[glass monolith]

Or finally use arts damage

[sly drift]

Is Shu s3 heal comparable to ptilo

[tropic valve]

"aside from arts dmg" tho

[foggy grove]

it's prolly more comparable to blem

higher but st

[sly drift]

You mean shu has the highest single target hps?

With saria s3 Range it seems great though

[foggy grove]

rough maf it's like over 1k and that's discounting the regen tile yet

[random widget]

@tropic valve want to help me make a team for SSS lol

[void terrace]

Stack vanguards and casters. Then throw in a few ops to be your 'main ops'. 2 multi medics and a guardian would be good too

Casters are generally a stronger choice over snipers since arts scales way better than the stupidly high defence. The sp/s also makes skills super spammable

Personally I take about 6 vanguards and 7 casters in the initial opening

[vernal lion]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LtidfQYSEE&ab_channel=LeoTse96

[glass monolith]

Imagine if S-4 had Lobster dudes

[vernal lion]

bruh

[glass monolith]

I bet my cringe spawn kill set up still somewhere in screenshots dated 1 year ago

[cosmic thicket]

Mlynar can solo it

[cosmic thicket]

which map and what 6* do u have

[cosmic thicket]

I wouldn't personally trust cirno's strategy because his schwarz usage is heavily reliant on the slow from manticore, blocking from healing defenders etc

I recently beat emergency Mama John's low end and that video should come out in a day or 2, which uses Lin as a carry

[cosmic thicket]

The strategy involves a fair amount of stalling though but it's pretty brainless
The hardest part is surviving the opening

[vernal lion]

Lin carry real

[glass monolith]

Lin carried me hard against RA cheesepults

[cosmic thicket]

It's probably also possible with mlynar or irene but both are much harder to use

Mlynar takes a fat L on f5 and Irene is reliant on her S3 to make ends meet

[vivid rain]

Yeah mama john boss stage can be stalled indefinitely by blocking the first wave metal crab with a medic

[cosmic thicket]

yeah similar strategies can be used for F4 divers and F5 any trash mob

[tidal sedge]

Hmm, this one might take a while...

IC-EX-7 NM

[vernal lion]

use bomb car
100% solved

[high warren]

Or just ling it

[tidal sedge]

Ok this is bs

How the hell do you kill this stupid tank?!

[high warren]

There's one record with Ling in arkrec

[tidal sedge]

...

[high warren]

The 8th one is more bs

Ling solos most of current event stages

[tidal sedge]

That assumes im smart and know how to use Ling.

[scarlet mortar]

wait for it......

freeze cars

[tidal sedge]

[scarlet mortar]

[high warren]

I just copy pasta

[ivory nimbus]

Playing ping pong with carts using freeze components. I tried it, and it's basically a perma stun-lock for them.

[tidal sedge]

So basically im just set up wrong?

[scarlet mortar]

this event trying to find freeze car lanes is like finding ifrit lanes in 2022

[tidal sedge]

Lol

[high warren]

I wish I get that 5 second cold gadget

[scarlet mortar]

basically ping pong the cars here

[high warren]

it's stopping my easy runs

[scarlet mortar]

the 3 block cars are the more fucked up part

[high warren]

Lin been pretty handy this event ngl

[tidal sedge]

So...
Where can i set up the roads to do that?

Hmm

I did use her for EX6 CM

[scarlet mortar]

tiles up top, defenders bot

you need defenders to stall the 3-blocks anw

[tidal sedge]

Visual?

[scarlet mortar]

wait kek i didn't even bother with roads

@tidal sedge

[tidal sedge]

👍

Thank you

[scarlet mortar]

that's surtr S1 btw

[visual cove]

what is the strat for ic-2-s?

[tidal sedge]

GG borrow carry.

[ancient hearth]

the normal cars go round the map, GG meme on the water tanks

[glass monolith]

Make cars go around water tanks too

[ancient hearth]

like, the big trick the first time around, was to push one of the top lane robots, so you could hit both of the with surtr

then have some plan to deal with the casters

in the normal map you can just drop somebody on top of the robot and i'll push them a bit into surtr range, but in the CM you'll need a pusher

the water tanks you can camp with eyja or gg

as long as you has somebody to deal with the casters

Mlynar GG Penance are all core, the rest are pretty replacable

[glass monolith]

This and next SSS reward reset left and i still haven't done shit for missions

[cosmic thicket]

Basically mlynar gets a combination of VG A/Caster A/Spec B/guard A or B if you're feeling desperate, same for GG and penance

Strat is basically "just place your stacks + final ops down and proc skills when it's getting scary"

[ancient hearth]

Mama John final stage lin with 2-3 defender stacks fucks

literally thanos

[random widget]

Got it I’ll give it a try

[cosmic thicket]

Lin in general is very good vs mama johns

[ancient hearth]

just standing there, eating hits forever, S3 charges in 5 seconds, wipes half the map

[cosmic thicket]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1120573094671695914/1192542576411148359/image.png?ex=65d79952&is=65c52452&hm=888129364ec68f1bbe82149d539e5ca506e9f93da0f5c1873f00403b43291b0a& something like this works for final stage - Penance destroys top lane robots and mlynar + goldenglow take turns destroying bottom 2 lanes

[glass monolith]

Then proceed to get oneshot by god damn bonk dude on last wave

[cosmic thicket]

Nah it's not that bad as long as u bait the first 150% ATK hit

[random widget]

Can i replace Skalter with Reed alter?

[cosmic thicket]

I've had a run where Lin gets hit by a defense crusher hit and lives

[cosmic thicket]

Sure I don't see why not

[random widget]

Mmmm and I’ll replace lin with Skalter

Or I mean I could probably just look for them in support

[cosmic thicket]

Pro tip for F6: You can beat the first wave bottom lane with ops that don't have stacks

[ancient hearth]

what's deploy limit on LT 6?

7?

[cosmic thicket]

sounds right

[ancient hearth]

this is usually how my final setup looks like for it

[cosmic thicket]

funny

aggro lin goes hard as fuck

is gnosis even doing anything tho

[ancient hearth]

helping penance and catching strays

[cosmic thicket]

penance can solo top with 5 stacks

[random widget]

Which stacks for penance?

[cosmic thicket]

i use a mix of VG A, caster A, spec B

[ancient hearth]

depends on how much dp I burn; otherwise I would replace gnosis with horn

or reed alter

[random widget]

Reed alter is 5 VG?

[cosmic thicket]

most stacks will likely be VG A because vanguards are very good for SSS

I have never used reed alter aside from jungle SSS so idk

[random widget]

Ohh alright

[ancient hearth]

allllll the spiders and slugs

reedic heaven

[random widget]

Goldenglow S2 or S3

[cosmic thicket]

S3

[random widget]

Got it

[merry narwhal]

i think the mama joes stall with a medic is the easiest solution

you can helidrop any medic onto that crab and set up in peace

[cosmic thicket]

Yeah that's what I did for low end but it's boring

[merry narwhal]

you only clear this stage once anyway, so imo it's fine

[cosmic thicket]

Meh I do mama johns for my SSS farming bc raythean is mind numbing

[ancient hearth]

something like this also works

[ancient hearth]

not mind numbing as much as poison is just...boring

it forces everybody to clump together in a ball next to the medic

which is already normal behavior, but having it forced that way is boring

[cosmic thicket]

I guess

It's also harder to lose to bad opening hands in mama johns

After playing it a number of times I might actually think it's easier than raythean

[ancient hearth]

yeah, you really want an early healing defender for raythean

or something like mountain

[merry narwhal]

Do you have a lot of module blocks? You don't have to farm SSS as a veteran because all recipes that use that resource also use module blocks which are the real bottleneck

[ancient hearth]

since medics don't exactly block

[cosmic thicket]

I do
I play SSS for fun

[waxen swan]

I dont

It's easy as hell now

[cosmic thicket]

It's the closest thing AK has to a card game mode

[merry narwhal]

yeah, but once you figured out how to build a winning team, it's alawys the same

[waxen swan]

You know yugioh is free

[cosmic thicket]

yugioh is ftk cancer

[waxen swan]

Skill issues

Didn't draw handtrap

Should have bring 9 hand trap instead of 6

[glass monolith]

arknights is red box kill cancer

[quick pecan]

modern yugioh be like: ok if i can’t empty half my deck, summon my entire extra deck, cover my entire board, and negative my opponents every move with my starting hand then i scoop

[glass monolith]

Okay i use Bagpipe and 5 vanguards to summon my entire kill squad in first 20 seconds of map before first dog reach blue box

[ancient hearth]

nah, that's an oversimplification

modern ygo is where both players are given a loaded gun

the question is who has the better aim

even though the outcome looks onesided, there are factors that can make games closer than they appear

though if you're on master duel atm, yeah, that's a bad time

[tidal sedge]

Gdi

[ancient hearth]

too many medics, not enough vanguards

or lack of the freezer part

[turbid badge]

how the fuck

please dont borrow exu

borrow mlynar

honestly

[torn ice]

either borrow someone who kill the beach guards

or borrow someone who kill the boss

[cosmic thicket]

exu without warf here is like
bruh

[turbid badge]

pozt boss kill

[cosmic thicket]

Exu can 1cycle with warf and shamare pretty easily

Don't know if pozy does as well

I felt like not thinking

[glass monolith]

Pozy can speedrun boss ass before it drop stun move with warf shamare easily

On original IC run i quickly grabbed Pozy and made all boss incounters into pozy showcase

i did ebenholz Ifrit

this is one of the moments where i was like

Oh fuck you ifrit s3

[tidal sedge]

I was able to do it by bouncing the cars at the bottom and Pozy/Mlynar for boss

[turbid badge]

Nice

mlynar always works

[glass monolith]

Fixed. Boss didn't had abuseable wait point so I made one

[tidal sedge]

Yeah...Mini got cooked lol

[tropic valve]

who made cars bro

literally most cracked event mechanic

I used this strat for IC S 4

[acoustic fox]

This strat was easy enough for me

To follow

[tidal sedge]

I beat it already

[acoustic fox]

Nicu

Im still waiting to gst the exploding car part

Only thing i have left to get

That and 500 rmas

And maybe like 200 of the blue shiz

If rocks ever came around... and loxic id be farming to 1k for each lol

[tidal sedge]

When you think you got a good strat...
Then the stage goes to hell.

[tropic valve]

you might want to put Lin somewhere she can hit more enemies

true AoE arts damage is great here

Just make better car course

Thing is thats the only enemy ive seen go there

Everything else goes to the top

If u want carless run, i think i used chain caster for this map

But u have car so nvm

Now we have smone like sexas, yato, maween too

Oh wait reed alter 💀

[unkempt lintel]

guys... what would be a good strat for ic s 2... rly having a hard time

[limpid siren]

Killing the surfbots early is bait, they’re not the problem in that stage anyway, and in cm you can’t even deploy on top of them

The problems are the volleyball throwers and casters for top and mid, and the three trucks that spawn bottom

Ranged arts dps can work for bottom lane pretty nicely, but you’re probably going to need a couple blockers that can take some punishment, especially for whoever blocks the far left lane as they’re probably gonna need to survive two trucks shortly after each other
It can be worth separating blocking duties for left side between top and bottom, as it is easy to overload whoever is blocking there

The redirect tile beside the middle red box can be retreated if you would prefer to use it to deploy an executor there to handle mid lane casters, but the timing for this is quite tight

Here’s a silly video demonstrating all of the above if you like: https://youtu.be/lNBVBZUuWC8?si=TRVsgsrse4KulSwT

[vernal lion]

nice

found a very good spawnkill strat

[unkempt lintel]

holy... now that u said it im too fixated on killing surfbots asap with kal, but then will be punished with other enemies on the maps... yeah ill try this tnx igne

[limpid siren]

good stuff

[agile perch]

I did

And I have to get module

Rip money

Went from 5.5 mil to 2.8 mil in 3 2 weeks

And I have to m3

Rip mats

[limpid siren]

i'd say not worth, her cycle is already very consistent and the chance for extra sp isn't enough to move the needle given how expensive it is

[void terrace]

Fair enough

Might just get first module for the stats. Was thinking interms of S3 activation. Mod 3 would reduce it by 5 seconds naturally most of the time

[limpid siren]

S3 already has a great cycle though

it's like 20/28 that gets shifted down to about 20/20 already

[void terrace]

Thinking of using it with ceobe to deal with high defence high res

I mean 20/20 is a mad cycle tho

For a flat 20 res reduction

[limpid siren]

yea it is

[foggy grove]

at least you are not doing this

[limpid siren]

more isn't really more sometimes

she's already meeting pretty much every required activation

[void terrace]

Then again I don't particularly use ifrit that much anymore

[limpid siren]

and ceobe is the limiting factor for that duo anyway

[void terrace]

Still haven't mod3ed texalt gavalt or yalt urf

All of them stuck at mod2

I've only mod3ed those who really need it

Waiting for Texas other mod

[limpid siren]

valid decision given how expensive 6* mod lvs are

They keep giving +max hp% to recent ops

[turbid badge]

Yato czerny Ng also have taunt

mlynar -> lee -> ng for me ig

tauntuse wise

Ng taunt was very useful in H12-4

[vernal lion]

why taunt when you can kill

I mean silence alter exists for smoothbrain

[turbid badge]

not ra

limited banner usually have 3 months gap

[void terrace]

Damn I heard candle knight is kind of a meme

[crisp bolt]

She's pretty meh

[cosmic dagger]

[void terrace]

Haven't seen her numbers but I heard the shield is too inconsistent

[cosmic dagger]

ifrit module is really fking bad

take it from me, i had to mald ifrit module rng for pyrolysis

never again

[crisp bolt]

I still use it for the extra bit of damage

[vernal lion]

the only time I used her is to beat Big Ugly because I need to counter the stun from its explosion

[turbid badge]

huh?

[limpid siren]

[agile perch]

Damn

Can’t get spark pulls

Texalter is on the banner right

And also there is selector with that?

[foggy grove]

yes to all

[acoustic ridge]

imo, S-3 CM but it's not that high of a bar

both stages can be trivialized with cars for the most part so

[visual cove]

yeah I used cars to make my mlynar attack speed + 60

[vernal lion]

the hardest stage of this event is anni 21 because there's no car abuse

funny shit lol

[muted quest]

so should i keep letting lapp be stunned to make them go to center?

[sly drift]

Gladia tile

[tepid sigil]

I'm more wonder why is lappland doesn't silence the crusher tbh

[muted quest]

yippee

[scarlet fulcrum]

Antagonizer shield nerfed hard atleast

[vernal lion]

because the silence duration is shorter than the attack interval

[random widget]

🫢

[timid schooner]

https://youtu.be/nAud9s5FFPY?feature=shared

yes

[scarlet mortar]

no no, he has a point

[timid schooner]

this is s-1 so just spam cars

[scarlet mortar]

S-1 is a car solo

can't clickbait that

[limpid siren]

it's only phys dodge for them anyway

mt arts dps handles that stage without cars

[scarlet fulcrum]

Truly gaming

[void terrace]

Damn the new joint operation banner looks great tho

Lee is the only low roll

Pozy mylnar and pennance in the same banner is a dream

Wondering if I should roll...damn tempted by typing coming upppp

[weak gazelle]

ohh JO11 banner
finally at least i have something to play with rather than repeating current rerun event

[void terrace]

I just want my final pot on pennance mylnar or lee

[weak gazelle]

then good luck
the best i can say

[vocal leaf]

i only have penance from that banner but i must save for hoedie

[timid schooner]

oh god not zaro

[glass monolith]

Phase 2 is not stun immune

[tepid sigil]

No matter how many time i see it
It's funny af

[timid schooner]

[tepid sigil]

An actual

Vehicular manslaughter

[timid schooner]

this and s-1 are durin worst nightmare

[glass monolith]

Nah, for real manslaughter refer to Solo Penance EX-8

[high warren]

Can eyja one s3 kill all 4 big ass robots?

[vernal lion]

nope

but, I think she can if you have her max level and mod3

[foggy grove]

she comes really clsoe last year

idk after module

[turbid badge]

Yes

[high warren]

Thanks

[quick pecan]

where’s ur exalt e2

[glass monolith]

Where is e2 Penance

[vernal lion]

yea, she definitely needs mod

[latent monolith]

I surtred them

throwback

[glass monolith]

Most meaningless tile bans in AK history

[tidal sedge]

A lot of tile bans seem to be like that

LE-EX-8 comes to mind

[cosmic thicket]

CW-S-2 as well

LE-EX-8 actually does something, it prevents you from AFK laneholding the 2 blue boxes

meanwhile CW-S-2 tile bans are ????????????

[tidal sedge]

They typically target only 1 specific strategy it feels

[glass monolith]

Honestly i didn't even consider 2 blue boxes hold on EX-8,
But those slugs who can 1v1 Saga spawning this close to banned tiles have me worrying

[tidal sedge]

So if you don't do whatever that specific strategy was, it doesn't affect you

[quick pecan]

man i need to buy astgenne and mulberry skins

dorothy rerun probably delayed and mulberry skin probably not coming back for awhile

[glass monolith]

Buying Astgenne skin before it exist

[ivory nimbus]

Does Ceobe unfreezed enemies she hit with her S2?

[tropic valve]

yeah these tile bans don't mean much lmao

[vernal lion]

what lol

do you even read her skill

[ivory nimbus]

Probably got confused along the way since one of those water cannon slipped through the mass of frozen enemies at the same time I activated her skill, but no, her skill description doesn't mentioned anything like that.

[vernal lion]

so like, if the enemy gets Freeze, the duration is always 3 or 5 sec, multiple cars won't stack on the same time

the only thing matters this, is the stun from the cart when it hits the enemy

so with Stun and Freeze, the enemy has like no way to move

unless you don't have good cycle time with cart

[ivory nimbus]

Stun, Freeze, and the half launching time chip slot, I use all 3. Took a few more tries, but it finally worked.

[glass monolith]

To guarantee perma freeze you need car to pass same spot twice on it path

[low shard]

Best way to beat the horde of dodge enemies in ic s 1 cm?

[glass monolith]

Penance or Lapp and sleep

[void terrace]

Or ling dragons deal arts dmg

4 block arts guard defender much

[quick pecan]

reedic s3 is good on that stage

[tidal sedge]

No Santalla for us

[limpid siren]

isn't she from typhon banner

[tidal sedge]

Yes

[limpid siren]

that should be pretty soon

[tidal sedge]

I know. Just lamenting a downside of our scheduling shenanigans.

[limpid siren]

[tidal sedge]

It's realistically not that big of a loss as it'll be easy to test Santalla in IC stages via Sidestory

But it's fun to be a little dramatic

[timid schooner]

this gonna take a while

[limpid siren]

[scarlet mortar]

someone didn't realize to put the vg down first

you could've eyja'd them

[next frost]

I need help for H12-4

[sly pivot]

team?

[empty hawk]

I'd like to help too

[sly pivot]

okay...

[civic bear]

Just show op

[empty hawk]

He's probably making a krooster

Or not

[civic bear]

Ss is enough since the leveled are the ones that matters eitherway

[sly pivot]

i see mlynar

in his krooster

thats half the stage done

[civic bear]

(1/3)

🤓

[sly pivot]

okay buddy

🤬

[civic bear]

Or 1/4

Ling is 2 op worth

[sly pivot]

bro dipped

[civic bear]

Oh bro acc is p stacked

Just need to learn the mechanics and it'll be ez

[sly pivot]

whens the 4 guard only zuo le h12 4 coming out

🚬

[civic bear]

When I get an acc

Still don't even know the 4th member

[sly pivot]

skadi rdp mod

[civic bear]

Need 2 block

At minimum 2 reliable 2 blocks

[sly pivot]

pull out the forbidden thorns s2 technology

[vernal lion]

real

[civic bear]

Actually hmmm

[onyx ocean]

guys is there a guide for Watery Tidehollow with eyjalter in it?

also eyjalter best skill for the annihilation?

[vital arrow]

just use s1

actually what you need isnt eyjaberry

but someone to handle the eggs

[onyx ocean]

what eggs?

[scarlet fulcrum]

Crawler

They will come from top right

[empty hawk]

Just stun them with borrowed ash

[vital arrow]

good thing theres 4 of them each wave

[onyx ocean]

can i just yatoalter it?

[vital arrow]

the right side tiles are undeployable

[onyx ocean]

oh

[vital arrow]

but you can probably use yato when they group up in the center

[empty hawk]

Her skill downtime isn't that bad

[vital arrow]

but her range is

she can only hit like 1 per skill

[empty hawk]

Right

Texas

[cosmic thicket]

does this count? https://youtu.be/DMUCpKN7hLw?feature=shared

[onyx ocean]

oh cool i can just borrow ling here, but is ines necessary too?

[cosmic thicket]

you can probably replace with other ops

[glass monolith]

https://youtu.be/GXHTgj-Sl_Y?si=A0dcSRWLIMlC-iTc

[foggy grove]

ejoying the fad?

[onyx ocean]

how do i beat these annoying shits? im at 9-14

[cosmic thicket]

Pillar instakills, but basically do phys/unless you can silence refraction
When it flies it's actually quite slow

[onyx ocean]

whats refraction?

[latent anvil]

[onyx ocean]

oh ok i read it

[onyx ocean]

there arent enough pillars to kill it

[cosmic thicket]

Then do damage

[onyx ocean]

fuck this shit ima just do kyostinv

[tepid sigil]

I think i can do faster

What to improve to be faster

[onyx ocean]

omg i can just chalter it all along

[empty hawk]

Group them up then pillar

[vocal leaf]

weedy for that little extra push

actually you don’t need weedy, just to block them 1 tile ahead makes them easier to fall in the hole

[vernal lion]

just use slow cart

[vocal leaf]

slow car has stronger push?

[void terrace]

Hmm interesting concept but you can double Chen s3 within aak buff with stainless s2

[glass monolith]

i think it end up pushing several times not sure

[void terrace]

I'm trying to see if it's possible with just saileach to further increase aspd

[vernal lion]

no, because of the distance they have been pushed, the cart will refresh its push attack, so it will just push enemy as long as they're kept being pushed away

[cyan gorge]

Besiegers can deal with them pretty easily

[empty hawk]

Weedy thing

[worthy fern]

This level is hell

Why can they? tank ange s2+gg s3+exu s2

[polar crane]

he?

[dark glade]

They?

[polar crane]

the boss have damage reduction, you have to use true damage or use rock tower on her to disable it

[glass monolith]

Wrong gender assumed, use squad against waifu bosses
Also 60% damage reduction shield because have fun

[polar crane]

kalstit+mlynar

suzu for even faster kill

[dark glade]

Did you fight dolly last event?

This boss is quite similar

[glass monolith]

Refuses to elaborate on how to use Pillar mechanic to remove boss damage reduction

[worthy fern]

Yes but

[dark glade]

But instead of aoda bottle you need to throw pillar

[polar crane]

just use rock

[worthy fern]

Wha i just used arts/chen alt

[dark glade]

You can do the same here

Blow up a pillar on her

She lose hover

Chen alt

And repeat

And iirc phase 1 is infinitely stallable

[worthy fern]

Phase two si where j lose

Cuz somehow low alt

[dark glade]

Yea you need to prep the pillar and the burst beforehand

[worthy fern]

I tried to do it the dumb way with texalt s3 and kirin s3

[dark glade]

You can do that with 3 pillar probs

Texalt the pillar

Then yato on her face

[worthy fern]

But the uhh shield takes so much damage

[dark glade]

Thats why pillar

[worthy fern]

K

[dark glade]

You can prep pillar by making it 1hp too btw

So when p2 start you only need 1 hit

[worthy fern]

Oh ok

[latent anvil]

oh 9-19 fun

phantom good at popping pillars

[polar crane]

phase 2 boss will collapse any rock that have operator within range btw

and phase 2 can be kill with only rock

all the rocks

[empty hawk]

3 tiles adjacent

[polar crane]

yes I said what I say

also

[vernal lion]

finally, I have found the best one for this

cart didn't get much disturbed from lobster

[crude tiger]

I can't seem to figure this out..is it simpler than i realize? Any advice?

[glass monolith]

Don't have car hit crab. the end

[latent anvil]

and dont do it in cm

[crude tiger]

I did a run where i didn't use the car at all

And a run where i used the cars sparingly to avoid hitting crabs, neither of which gave me this objective

Also yeah i didn't run it in CM

[dark glade]

Idk about the wording

I just launch car once on enemies

And i get it

[round yew]

I just did it without cars
is it a bug on your end?

[scarlet mortar]

think some people had to restart the game for that particular mission

[crude tiger]

Okay i try

It worked. I also sent like 5 or 6 cars straight to their deaths

I appreciate the help

[deft nest]

Is Heavyrain alright?

[turbid badge]

Shes really niche

your better if using something off if your new

her s1 is kinda

[deft nest]

i still use noir corne idk why he's so good

[turbid badge]

Hes cheap defender

[glass monolith]

Regen for reapers

[tidal sedge]

friend of mine is in a dire need of a caster and cant really get kjera, would they be better off leveling Amiya, Minimalist, or just bite the dust and level Click?

just sorta wondering about second opinions

[gray stone]

Amiya Steward

but Amiya requires E2 to be better than Minimalist/Click

[tidal sedge]

i figured yeah cuz her module

[gray stone]

not just the module, it's the talent

[little ravine]

you gotta level amiya anyway, her module is more major lore spoilers than combat benefit

[gray stone]

you can just, not read the module lore

[little ravine]

maybe spoilers is the wrong word, but her module basically foreshadowed recent events

[tidal sedge]

base layout?

Hmmm

[vernal lion]

alright, afk strat

the power of ice and fire

beat the water

[turbid badge]

wheres the ice

the car

[vernal lion]

fire is too bright lmao

[tropic valve]

I like using her, even outside of her camouflage niche, her stats are bulky

[royal delta]

damn the ex-4 stage was painful

my best burst op was either eyja or SA

they really said "make a stage that will cause anyone who attempts it to roll for pozzy/mlynar in a few days"

[flint falcon]

did u mean s-4?

[royal delta]

checks yea

anyway I think shamare saved me

[void terrace]

Vehicular manslaughter is the solution to the majority of this event

Also funny little thing but with aak and saileach Chen can tank the steamknight by dodging all his big hits or triggering his phases fast enough

You can squeeze in 2 Chen s3s into Aaks duration perfectly with a little pausing

[scarlet mortar]

"triggering his phases fast enough" EB-

*gets shot*

[turbid badge]

or i can just hit a roberta

[void terrace]

True

Just funny seeing Chen going toe to toe with the steamknight

[turbid badge]

Just use vivi

frfrp

i was about to say just use talulah

[void terrace]

I mean I've used everyone from skadi to pennance now

Just seeing what dumb things can actually survive the steam knight

It's the new patriot for bullying

[turbid badge]

penance is

Blem+Aak

to stall better get her Mod

[void terrace]

Non cn player things T-T

[tropic valve]

or do like, who can one cycle steam knight (as in take out half his bar and make him fly up)

afaik in H11-4 it's only Schwarz

[void terrace]

I mean so many ops can it's kinda lame. Steamknight is a great stress test for 'lane holders'

[tropic valve]

with 11-20 stats it should be more

[void terrace]

It provides high but reasonable pressure

[void terrace]

Isn't there mylnar and the rest too

Pozy chapter executor all and trigger it and survive

Ceobe more than covers his h11-4 stats she completely melts him

[turbid badge]

bru

by laneholders u mean castle walls?

[void terrace]

I mean how do I put this it's a great test a great balance of survivability and dmg against a simple boss that throws out great phys and arts dmg

Any combo that can deal with it is more than able to handle waves of elites

[turbid badge]

combo sure but just by itself yea thats rough

[turbid badge]

ok rexas

[tropic valve]

there's absolutely no way Mlynar can kill half of H11-4 Steam Knight's bar

that boss has 2880 DEF

[void terrace]

Oh right I have pot 5

[scarlet fulcrum]

Maybe phase2, boss self debuff

[tropic valve]

phase 2 yes

his DEF goes down to a quarter or so I think

[glass monolith]

500 in normal and I think 600 due H effect in H

[void terrace]

Yeah I'm probably remembering this

I'm gonna test a little he's a little off

I mean mylnar does 4300 per hit

[sullen rover]

whos better

[foggy grove]

the 6* male sniper in the future

[turbid badge]

the big bow in theice

[glass monolith]

Strongest is Rosmontis because she does her best while being child with memory issues and PTSD

[turbid badge]

strongest is Obviously kroos

[glass monolith]

https://youtu.be/YZk8Ri9Oq0o?si=SglrvXh1BZAe6nac

Also about strong males - Holy shit new guard is busted

[vernal lion]

strongest snipers, versus, this guy

[turbid badge]

minus u didnt know?

he eats

[glass monolith]

He eats rice in CN game, yes yes

[foggy grove]

[glass monolith]

(Forgot we don't talk lore outside CN lounge)

[foggy grove]

he looks real fun doe

[vernal lion]

gain more sp when at low hp, and attack has chance to gain 1 sp per hit,
and the barrier from s2 and s3 is like x2 time of his hp

basically, a competitor to Saga and CY

spamming skill likes it's has no cooldown

[foggy grove]

i wan't expecting a musha to be that good

[glass monolith]

25 SP cost but you gain SP at speed of Penance blocking Brawlers

[vernal lion]

and he only needs 8 sec to spam his skill when at low hp

so 4 sec in x2 speed

[glass monolith]

Assuming he don't have chance to land autos for SP in that time

[vernal lion]

keeping him at 30-40% hp is also a heart attack moment

[fringe jackal]

I've used Shu a few times now and she feels really different from saria (I always use friend saria on s2)

[glass monolith]

If only we had some free operator giving damage reduction to low HP ops in range

[vernal lion]

we have

you can just use Silence

[glass monolith]

(if only was sarcasm part)

[vernal lion]

the requirement for +2 sp rate is at lower 70% hp

[civic bear]

Shu feels more like

Suzu+skalter ish

In a sense that use skill for heals + dmg buff. And then u give them talent for passive Regen and shelter and other buffs.

[gray stone]

The talent tax your squad slot

[vocal leaf]

can we also use silence to save a ranged operator from aak?

[gray stone]

4 of the same kind is a lot

Realistically you will proc it through Guards

[civic bear]

It's 3

[glass monolith]

3 of same, 3 of different, 4 of Sui
And AH just so happens to have 2 guards. And Sui happens to include guard.
So start cooking

[latent monolith]

Yeah, with her S3

In some situations S2 can work too

[ivory nimbus]

So, which module should I picked?

[drowsy jewel]

bread

[waxen swan]

Cookies

[glass monolith]

Both for doggo lore

[near folio]

Does Jessica alter have any value in endgame content?

[tidal sedge]

Supposedly she's a good IS4 starter until expansion.

[near folio]

What subclass is she under?

[tidal sedge]

Sentinel

Liskarm/Blitz

[sly drift]

What's happening after expansion

[tidal sedge]

Supposedly the new maps are unfavorable to her

[scarlet fulcrum]

Most notable one new stage each on normal flrs yeah

[near folio]

Unfavourable for even such a versatile defender?

[waxen swan]

Versatile doesn't immediately mean good at all situations

[near folio]

Well does she at least do her job at taking hits then?

[waxen swan]

Idk i dont play cn

[near folio]

I dont really mean that versatile should be good but do those stages actively punish you for using Jessica alter?

Cause even in the worst case she could just be used as a regular defender

[waxen swan]

Doesn't that just mean just use a regular defender

[near folio]

Like what I meant is that jessica alter does have her strong points but even at her weakest she could be used like a normal defender no?

[lapis hornet]

matter of opportunity cost

[waxen swan]

Imma just wait for her to come to answer that

[lapis hornet]

I'm a jessica believer myself

like look how many times nian was used in cc

she's probs only good option for the nerdy tryhard tho

[waxen swan]

We're talking about the 1% of the people playing

These mtf inject arknight to there blood

[lapis hornet]

i assume ppl who come to strategy are much more likely to be in that category

[scarlet fulcrum]

Not anymore

[waxen swan]

No they dont come here because they look up a video for it

[near folio]

Think strategy is always the place to come to for stage clears

The guys in help dont want to bother with those

[waxen swan]

The help refuge

[timid schooner]

CRAP HE WALKS SO FAST

[vernal lion]

you just need 2 vg and a boss killer for this stage and CM too

[shell arch]

99.99% people in #help gonna slap you with kyostinv video
The 00.01% people in #help gonna slap you with oyuki/eckogen instead

[shrewd harness]

And I gonna force you to play other game

[vernal lion]

[dark glade]

Im sure 1% of them will send you to strat

And when in start you get 'lol skill issue use the mechanic this stage can be cleared with x ops'

[foggy grove]

try y

[latent monolith]

Go play an actual good td like btd6 true

[twilit ferry]

damn, gonna ask here from now on

[scarlet fulcrum]

No way u did the summon ritual
