strategy

[latent monolith]

you can exu the orb

[ocean ether]

just surtr it?

[spark sinew]

yeah people exu the orb

no wonder exalter didn't hit hard

[ivory leaf]

What 4 stars do you guys recommend?

[spark sinew]

btw this is the ideal target for using qb over surtr

stationary unit is fine, thingy has 0 res

CC is welcome

[ocean ether]

damn I failed to 1 cycle boss because of mobs

[latent monolith]

Prob yea

[spark sinew]

can you bind/slow the orb device

[cyan gorge]

I have no idea what to bring to S-5 but I can't be bothered to look at a guide

[latent monolith]

I'm not sure

It's probably an ally you can attack not an enemy

[spark sinew]

so not like stainless, and they finally figured it out?

[spark sinew]

should've used s3 mountain!

[ocean ether]

I got my 1 cycle

Honestly... with the amount of setup you need to block mobs, you are better off doing something else

oh wait, you can just block mobs by deploy mountain at the red box

got it

but typhon is kinda bad for phase 2

[boreal egret]

Can you guys help me clear ls 6 with this current operators

[ocean ether]

Slap your own ops there and improvise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AW7lJoN5e8

[ornate loom]

how do i kill this mf

[glass monolith]

Hit hard enough

[ornate loom]

lvl 8 :(

[hardy fog]

does the same condition in normal mode apply to cm

[glass monolith]

CM has everything normal had. Unless CM changes enemy variety etc.
Don't forget stat buff. It is +20% to HP/DEF/ATK on average, but stage specific and hidden so yea. Glory to sites which parse stage info so we can look them up

[ocean ether]

for S stages? the CM adds on to normal

[hardy fog]

so their stacked

i see

[clear fractal]

Selecting Franka to be tanking "The Thirsty One" was a great call, almost soloed it on Emergency until the 3x Pocket Crawlers were approaching and i let it complete its route to be safe. DEF ignore is pretty good when the boss has a billion HP
She didn't even have any stacks cause I was too busy buffing healers (She is completely maxed on my account though )

[opal drift]

Do I really need Ethan on ZT EX 4?

[hardy fog]

no

you can brute force

[opal drift]

Don't tell me it is BP

[spark sinew]

what was ex4
you can ignore mechanics in EX at least

[sterile delta]

i just blasted them with fiammetta + ifrit while ignoring the tuning nodes

its the one where the enemies walk in loops

[spark sinew]

although it is a really good tile for ethan...

[hardy fog]

i just spam my vanguards there for easy dp and deploy mlynar and jessicat

[sterile delta]

just deathball onto the lane

[opal drift]

I mean ZT S 4

Don't tell me I need a fucking Ethan or BP there

[glass monolith]

Dude you said EX-4 first give chat break before blaming it for giving EX-4 tips

And Ethan DoT bypass shield if it present as mechanic

[opal drift]

hmmmmm.... oh ok, I was getting the spelling mixed but ok

[dapper hedge]

P sure I ignore the node there and just ifrit+blaze wallhack

[opal drift]

Hmmmm.... Ifrit + Blaze?

[spark sinew]

4 was really easy compared to 3 to me, never needed any ethan or bp yeah (although if you can't just mly/exec the waves, i do rec to proc the towers to remove reflect)

[old coral]

Any tips on zt s 3

These are my operators

[opal drift]

yeah agree on the last part

[spice mortar]

Any advice on this stage? Its kinda hard for me

[spark sinew]

thorns right

borrow like exec for the middle

[spice mortar]

S3 fine for exec right

[spark sinew]

the only skill that will work, probably

[tidal sedge]

It's time

My friends it's time for round 2 of Necrosis Technology

Oh and @spice mortar

Champaign does not give necrosis

[spice mortar]

Rip

[spark sinew]

the boss is so weird

i think i only figured out the intended way to fight it on S stages

[spice mortar]

They 1 shot him what the fuck

[spark sinew]

?

[spice mortar]

The initial purple dudes

[spark sinew]

how did they came to him

[spice mortar]

I thought he didnt need cover, rip

[spark sinew]

did you not s3 them

[spice mortar]

I did

[tidal sedge]

I cleared it with thisb

[spice mortar]

Ah

[glass monolith]

"Hey time to do S stages"
Look on S-1 layout
Oh no

[spice mortar]

Ty

[spark sinew]

yeah in hinsight

no no

[tidal sedge]

For stage 2

You can also go the cc route by using Suzuran or Saria S3

And just slowly wipe them out

Since they also pile up in 1 area I used Reedic and Eyja

Any strong aoe can work

[spark sinew]

nothing deployed in the middle but exec

he should do the same to all other waves iirc

didn't even need to activate skill, but usually you also manually stop it and do a lot of damage

[glass monolith]

I ALREADY DONT LIKE S STAGES

[tidal sedge]

The S stages are the fun ones

They actually pose a challenge

[glass monolith]

How on love i suppose to kill reflect clown there

[spark sinew]

11 ops that are left can be used for the left + some support if needed

[rough wedge]

Is the Kazemaru glitch where you can time her s2 with her death patched?

Or do I just need to get good

[glass monolith]

Define glitch, like both clones on field?

[rough wedge]

well yeah, the uninteded bug

I think it was like having the clone permanently?

[glass monolith]

You sure it is global thing? CN during release of H14 deleted like 2500 lines of code so every mechanic broke

[rough wedge]

hmm will do more searching on YouTube for it

[spark sinew]

i put my exec on sup so you wouldn't need to use stinky angle's

[glass monolith]

Dude fuck reflect dude Puzzle offs himself on him

[spice mortar]

Thanks, watching a show rn. Ill let you know when im done

[spark sinew]

no need

do ping me if you fail though

[spice mortar]

Oki

[unreal oar]

is there some mechanic to ZT-S-3 that i am not aware of? at some poin the stage just fails

[spark sinew]

deploy on the left

try not to hit reflect guys during reflect (duh)

so switch it on phase 1, and try to stall/tank through on phase 2

[unreal oar]

is that advice for me?

why does my mission fail even though i dont leak anything

[spark sinew]

oh that's what you mean

boss kills you

he's on a timer

[unreal oar]

guess thats it for me then. dont think i can DPS him any faster

[spark sinew]

use the device

[unreal oar]

thats what im doing

[spark sinew]

might be damage issue yeah

[glass monolith]

Lmao taking DoT activates reflect dude reflect on whoever inflicted it

S-1 CM

Bitch they knew we will abuse Ethan

[brave sun]

just use an exu on the device

[ebon zephyr]

any help for ZT-S-2

[glass monolith]

Not sure about CM cuz i am on normal yet. But that middle path just says "Horn/Firewhistle there"

[copper solstice]

any true aoe really

[glass monolith]

just keep music in purple

[copper solstice]

isn't purple the buff+stun

[glass monolith]

AND slow

So they spend longer in middle

They spend so long in middle they will stack 30 stacks of not being blocked anyway

[dapper hedge]

Easy pick off if you have like Typhon or smt

[glass monolith]

btw army of prespawned medics on left side can eat shit and die

[dapper hedge]

S3 is actually funny ah stage with the teleports

I like that stage

[dark violet]

It's andrea's time to shine

she can ignore taunt for targeting the nodes, and her s2 is permanent full power hits with the hole

[glass monolith]

Fuck S-3

[dark violet]

yeah ok, knowing that, I just made andrea NUKE the boss so hard, he lost 80% of his second phase in one burst

could only teleport the ops once

[spice mortar]

He just dies to second wave caster here 😦

[spark sinew]

damn not using practice, brave

you mean from the left?

btw thorns can be one tile on the right and then you don't need medic at least e2 90 thorns doesn't

[rich rune]

I pretty much never use practice on the off chance I clear the stage.

[glass monolith]

There is "Buff enemy HP" bullshit walking middle path

[copper solstice]

Do you have S3 M1 goes from X2 to X3 heal

[spice mortar]

On who?

[copper solstice]

Executor

[spice mortar]

This is haucks exe

[copper solstice]

Retry maybe double hit rng

[spark sinew]

i can check out if i can replicate later

[spice mortar]

Like a drowning man gasping for breath

Thorns died on the right

Emergency blaze and mudrock stalled long enough for virt s3 to come back up agaon

Then it was just left side goons who are too tanky

[spark sinew]

i assumed you would use gravel if something would go harass him
but i mean

cleared

[spice mortar]

She didnt live long enough

And dw i used her plenty

Im e2ing her she deserves it

[dark violet]

e1 gravel

max power gravel is so useful

[glass monolith]

i have e1 1 gravel and shit is still most tanky unit in my army

Okay i need tip for noob. HOW THE COUNTER REFLECT CANCERS IN S-3

[spice mortar]

Id say virt

Necrosis dmg doesnt get countered right

If no range can do some funky s2 tech

[remote perch]

Just don't get the boss to phase 2 too early cuz he will disable changing the tune, just wait till you kill the reflect before getting to phase 2 so u can still change the tune to remove the barriers

[cosmic thicket]

I just swapped to happy music and killed them

[spice mortar]

Just saw shes sl1 LOL

[spark sinew]

yeah explains it
chad gravel

only was e1 for base

[glass monolith]

I kill wave 1, THEN WAVE 2 START MOVING DURING REFRECT TUNE

[copper solstice]

then wait for refrect tune to end ?

[remote perch]

I just stall try to stall them with blockers and have ines to be a sacrificial lamb

[glass monolith]

Wait fucking how they reach from boss side to blue box during it

[spark sinew]

suzu is one option

i just stalled using whatever, yeah

also if you didn't kill the boss you can change tune back, but i assume wave 2 is during phase2?

[glass monolith]

(Crying after reading CM effect)

[remote perch]

CM is just stronger reflect no?

Just do the same thing

Stall until barrier down

[copper solstice]

you weren't in cm mode ?

[glass monolith]

"Greatly increased HP"

HP risk 3

[worldly stirrup]

How hard S5 compare to S3? 🤔

[remote perch]

not all that difficult, there are less of those reflect dude to worry about so theres not alot of issues

[vocal leaf]

i didn’t have any problem with the cellists reflect, did i kill the boss too fast?

[glass monolith]

No i am just too dumb to fight them efficiently

I still don't know WHAT can fight them efficiently

[vocal leaf]

my boys did it pretty well

i didn’t notice the cellists

[glass monolith]

I swear if boss teleported Phantom facing him second time i would be rolling for next hour

[dapper hedge]

The teleport there is so goofy

[vocal leaf]

boss be like ok just end my suffering

i was confused when you said s-3 reflect cancer, because s-4 has way more reflects

but best friends SA and gnosis deleted them in few seconds

[versed hazel]

Horn is amazing at poppong those shields

Wont even need to change symphonies

[lusty basin]

"maybe I'll try penance for outer lane in ST-5"
👩‍⚖️
👩‍⚖️
"...oh. right."

whoops

[glass monolith]

YOLOoooooooooooo

[regal pagoda]

Anyone could help me figure out S5 with these units? https://krooster.com/u/Sieghiro
S3 was already hella pain but lord S5

[ocean ether]

theres always the borrow typhon and meme it

[regal pagoda]

[ocean ether]

typhon S3 kills p1 in 1 cycle btw

[regal pagoda]

[ocean ether]

#strategy message

you need to block mobs though, and she isnt very good for phase 2 because too many mobs on her targetting

[sterile delta]

in my experience exalter holds the circular lane and kills p1 by himself, might not work in cm tho

[regal pagoda]

I'll try that way and then throw tons of Surtr and Texas alt at him

[ocean ether]

anyways key things to note is to change the symphony for the 2nd purple song

or else your frontline gets fked

[regal pagoda]

Aight

[ocean ether]

btw, if boss teleports surtr, her skill and hp gets reset. Can also lead to some very meme situations

[regal pagoda]

Yeah I had one where he teleported Texalt right into him again and it was funny

Still leaked random mobs

I burned my sanity but I'm trying with Typhoon tomorrow

[ocean ether]

too bad you dont have a solo laneholder or else things will be easier lol

[lusty basin]

y'know on that note I may go back and try Penance S2 since I never have a chance to

I never know what it "does" in practice since it's rare S3 doesn't work like here

Kal'tsit did it for me though

[warm swift]

I can't seem to do S-5 CM AAAAAAA, the boss just hits much harder

[cyan gorge]

get more healing

or space your ops so they aren't all taking splash damage

[sterile delta]

just take less damage, are you stupid

[warm swift]

My Eyja2 just can't survive getting 2-3 hits from this guy when he TP's to the backline and for some reason he also doesn't target the bait I place there

[cyan gorge]

CM boss teleports so rapidly, he realistically only gets 3-4 hits off before moving on

try to put your medics within range of each other

[warm swift]

i'm currently out of Practice tickets so I'll try again later

[ocean ether]

1 eyjalter is enough honestly, you are doing something wrong

[terse sierra]

I put ng and eyja2 next to each other it worked tho

Then later I realised that ng was healing solo. Eyja2 was gone... Like tears in the rain... To a random side corner of the map

[cyan gorge]

I brought Ptilo, Skalter and Silalter s2

[warm swift]

I sadly don't have Skalter as this is technically my first Anni event or something

I just got spooked by Eyja2 when I started lol

i didn't even know what limiteds were back then

[ocean ether]

I brought eyjalter, and only eyjalter S1. Not even skalter. You are doing something very wrong lol

[cyan gorge]

Me being Eyjaless

[warm swift]

i still have time to experiment hnghh

[terse sierra]

With the witch king deploy order also matters a lot. Put the units you don't want targetted by tele first. Bait and teleport bait last

[warm swift]

yeahhhhh, i'm aware of that at leasst

[ocean ether]

are you placing units on right tiles?

[terse sierra]

They also need to be placed so attacking units can remove the brand

[ocean ether]

if you have eyjalter, it would be better to just cramp everyone on the top tiles

you dont need that much healing with her around anyways

[warm swift]

yeahhh, that's what I was doing

[ocean ether]

deploy order?

my eyjalter is 2nd or 3rd on the field, first are myrtle + ines (ines gets retreated)

[cyan gorge]

splash damage

wandering medics have slow aspd

no wonder she gets overwhelmed

[ocean ether]

dosent matter, eyjalter has HoT

She can outheal everything as the lone medic even in CM

[terse sierra]

Another thing that kills is the brand. If the healer is branded it can't heal and will get hit with damage

[warm swift]

would Thorns target the brand first despite having enemies around him (provided that he doesn't get branded)

[ocean ether]

yes

because brand makes ally more likely to be targeted for enemy and ally iirc

[terse sierra]

At the same time other units around the healer can also get branded and cause splash

[ocean ether]

mark of insipidity can be used for some very meme situations

You can get your DPS branded, then immediately teleported to reset their skill

And then burst DPS again

[terse sierra]

The witch king can inflict it on the enemies instead of you as well

[ocean ether]

I did that to my eyja to reset her S3

[warm swift]

i'll try deploying Eyja a little bit earlier next time

although to be fair, I wasn't even gonna think I would reach S-5

[marsh surge]

why am i getting a mission failed screen right at the end of zt-s3 cm?

right as i am about to beat the boss, i have more than half the music remaining

[warm swift]

the boss does have a time limit I think

[marsh surge]

suddenly he swaps some of my characters and i fail

[warm swift]

since he doesn't go to the blue box

[marsh surge]

I feel i'm under the time limit

how long is it?

[warm swift]

i'm actually not sure

[marsh surge]

i was gauging it using the music bar on top

first 2 times it's in 4 parts, then it's a full bar, purple or orange, and when it reaches the 3rd time, i auto fail

[warm swift]

3rd time is a bit early for second phase

if that's what you're saying

i'm not too sure then

[foggy grove]

5 min

[marsh surge]

I reach second phase pretty early, right as half the total enemies are dead, i burst down and clear first phase

[warm swift]

All I know is if I take too long to kill the boss, the mission just auto fails

[foggy grove]

so uh like 2.5 min if you played on 2x speed

[marsh surge]

5 mins sped up to 2x or total 5 mins

[marsh surge]

ok that's gonna be rough ugh, how did y'all clear it

[warm swift]

hmm

lemme see if I can explain quick

do note that I run an abyssal hunter core

but some units should be sub-able

[foggy grove]

the timer reset when he goes to phase 2 so it ain't so bad

[marsh surge]

my core was exu thorns spectre -> used kirin yato to mow down the leftover enemies

[warm swift]

^

[marsh surge]

ok, so I have a total 2.5 mins to beat second phase?

[foggy grove]

ya

[warm swift]

1 - Thorns facing right
2 - Gladiia facing up taking pot shots at Witch King
3 - Specter facing right
4 - Specalter facing up

the logic is that 3 and 4 (with skill) can still attack the deployable device

despite blocking enemies

[marsh surge]

I can run a full abyssal core actually, gladiia pulling enemies into the pit?

[warm swift]

My Gladiia is on S3 actually

[marsh surge]

works for me as well

[marsh surge]

you mean specter facing right?

[warm swift]

I think if you S3M3 her, her pull might be strong enough to drag the stunners for second phase

[warm swift]

yes sorry

directionally challenged lmfao

[marsh surge]

why thorns facing left?

[warm swift]

right*

let me edit

lol

[marsh surge]

yep this was kinda similar to what i ran, thorns facing right at 3's location, and specter in 1's location, and exu above 3 facing down

i put skalter in the middle to buff everyone

[warm swift]

once the Witch King TP's out of his original spot, you can put down a healer to the left of 3, if you don't wait he'll nuke the shit out of em

[marsh surge]

i'll replay and send an ss

[warm swift]

this is assuming you have myrtle of course

[marsh surge]

yes yes

[warm swift]

but yeah, that was the core of my strategy

I was mostly juggling around Redeploys and stuff like a Texalter and Gravel, and sometimes even Mountain (self-sustain, don't need to redeploy if he gets TP'd in a decent location)

I used Specter's S1 for this since you don't want anyone to leak obviously xd

as for me, I probably have to wait for the rerun to clear S-5 CM

[marsh surge]

umm, i beat him....

[warm swift]

nice

[marsh surge]

but i was unsure so it was in practice

i think it was luck for sure

[warm swift]

if it's doable in practice, it should be doable for real

[marsh surge]

i cope

nope, failed in the real try

dammit

[turbid badge]

Kazdel’d

[warm swift]

Rippp

What seems to be the problem

Because this was the one that was most consistent for me, used the same strat for normal and CM

[ocean ether]

team comp?

[ocean ether]

theres RNG involved in the teleport so maybe theres that

[whole crater]

What r good strategies for noreadknights

Im trying to brute force events without using event mechanics

[turbid badge]

tf is that

oh

[ocean ether]

EN cant read

[turbid badge]

is there even a strategy for that?

[ocean ether]

get kal'stit, true damage brute forces alot of shit

[turbid badge]

[whole crater]

Idk I'm just doing random team comps and hoping it works

[civic bear]

block and outheal the shit out of them, then just a lot of damage

basicly every event

[whole crater]

I almost died on event stage ex8

Maybe this team isn't very good

But like I don't like using healers

[turbid badge]

mlynar enugh

i would remove rosmontis for something else

please get jugg modules

there really good

even base upgrade

[whole crater]

But they don't get to block so it's useless

[ocean ether]

theres the no brain typhon S3 which tracks bosses if they teleport
theres kal'stits true damage
there's eyjalter who will probably outheal anything that comes your way
Theres mlynar who just shits on 90% of the game

Theres the upcoming shu who can do alot more b.s
Logos who powercreeps the entire caster class
And Walter who powercreeps all DPSes

[whole crater]

I missed evrry banner in like last 6 months

[ocean ether]

congratz, the next 6 months are more important

[whole crater]

I wanted typhon kinda

[ocean ether]

typhon is good for AFK, and for shitting on bosses that teleport lol

[whole crater]

My units r all very short range

[turbid badge]

no typhn?

[whole crater]

Yea

[turbid badge]

gg?

[whole crater]

No

[ocean ether]

^ typhon even 1 cycles the current event boss P1 lol

Though she is kinda bad for P2

[whole crater]

The p2 takes a long time

[turbid badge]

lol i just gave boss backshots with p2

with typhon s3

[whole crater]

I used Texas and ntr

It took like a long time

[ocean ether]

I was too lazy to re-deploy typhon, so I just made her smack the ball

but that was just a test to see if typhon could solo the event boss

[whole crater]

Is ntr mod2 good

[turbid badge]

iirc her mod is similar to kal

both are the same

about the same

ill stick with the first one tbh

[whole crater]

Ok

[turbid badge]

and no s2 doesnt reactive with mod 2

[whole crater]

Ok

Is horn mod good

[turbid badge]

ye

more atk

[whole crater]

Ok

Is it just me or does yato feel like really bad

Or maybe its the event

Wasn't she like supposed to be insanely op

[foggy grove]

maybe it's you

she literally solo some of this stage

[south bone]

simply an issue in skill

you can use her to kill some trash mobs or maybe even attacking the turret with her s1

[vital arrow]

As 'insanely op' as she is, shes still constrained by her niche

You dont just expect her to roflmao the stage just because shes 'insanely op'

Espeically on a stage with gimmicks like this

[whole crater]

Yea but she tickles the boos

Boss

Noreadknights is pretty hard actually I wasted like 3 attempts

[smoky halo]

did u use the ball

[foggy grove]

that's because you are not reading

[smoky halo]

cause she shreds if u use the ball lmao

[foggy grove]

can't blame the tool if you are doing self imposed challange

[smoky halo]

fr

[whole crater]

No I don't use ball

[smoky halo]

thats ur fault then lmao

[whole crater]

No it's noreadknights

[south bone]

well that's a funny niche, most player do that

[vivid rain]

Most players play kyoknights and they suck at it

[ocean ether]

honestly, why are you coming to #strategy to ask about strategy but then say you dont wanna read...

[tidal sedge]

How are people dealing with the giant ball of HP that is the wind players in S-2?? (Mostly interested in non-6* strats)

Ranged deployment being severely limited because of the tuners and harps doesn't help :/

[ivory leaf]

Is quercus Usable?

[cosmic thicket]

yeah

arguably best abjurer

[ivory leaf]

Okay

[vital arrow]

Ah yes 'X is useless because I'm actively against using the intended stage mechanic'

Surely this is the operator's inherent flaw and not the consequence of my actions whatsoever

[cosmic thicket]

I feel like a possible strat is using ashlock to kill the tuner, and then you have space for your ranged ops

can go something like sad music + firewatch s2 or smth

actually if you eat crayons hard enough you can probably do liskarm bibeak spam

[latent monolith]

Is arkrec not loading for anyone else

[lethal dragon]

For past few days

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1163651074515796018.png?quality=lossless&size=64

[latent monolith]

It worked fine yesterday

[turbid badge]

This sucked

Ended up to utilize deployment order

Lol

[glass monolith]

Good to see someone share my pain of S-3

[civic bear]

site is down waiting for cn government to record
use the direct site 118.193.34.223

[tidal sedge]

Actually i did use ashlock(maxed) + Rope for the tuners. Firewatch+Manticore was pretty damn close, but fw falls behind on sp. Aoe damage is surprisingly hard to come by when enemies arent standing in the same place 😭

Thinking of using Podenco to make that happen, but that'll have to wait for tomorrow

[latent monolith]

Connecting to IP addresses directly

[ocean ether]

@void axle try this https://youtu.be/WMNQMyV6d_A?si=WXodBCqctVebE1Z0&t=571

replace exuia with pozy, thorns with ines, nightingale with eyjalter

replace skadi with typhon and just S3, can also just brute force with mlynar and pray he gets teleported into a good position LOL

[glass monolith]

Fucking enemy info for boss don't mention anywhere bitch does attack to everyone in range before applying mark to 2 in range

[south bone]

he doesn't attack everyone in range tho right

[peak cloak]

damn, zt s 3 cm is another ball showcase

ez walk through

[glass monolith]

Then how the fuck he damaged Weedy in top right corner when not marking her

or maybe i am re- and didn't retreat Puzzle in time

Fuck boss

Simple stage but set up without his trololo teleport and slap my set up away is pain

[south bone]

damn i'm still stuck on s-5 cm

i hate the mid lane

[glass monolith]

Need to survive phase 1 on it and then i plan to Fia part 2

I have no plan and i must rarity abuse

1 operator to hold entire outside. 12 operators to hold middle and boss and healing. proceed to fail anyway

[spark sinew]

took me until S stages to realize that using anything but the event device on phase 2 is just wasteful

would fia even damage it at all

[glass monolith]

I care that phase 2 send god damn rush of 4 trash mobs + medic

repeat 10 times

[spark sinew]

just use idk

[south bone]

yea outside lane can be handled by at least Mountain and a few helps in case he got overwhelmed

[spark sinew]

mizuki

even

[glass monolith]

I DONT CARE I CANT KILL FUCKNIG REFLECT FUCKERS IN PHASE 1 BECAUSE I STILL DONT KNOW HOW TO COUNTER THEM

I HAVE ONLY ARTS DAMAGE AGAINST 80 RES

[south bone]

use the device and change the tune 🤓 👆

those guys are stupidly tanky anyway

argh

[spark sinew]

qb kills

[south bone]

i wonder what ops can handle mid lane, at least on phase 1

[spark sinew]

exec is often used

[umbral jetty]

can anyone explain how the saileach passive 1 works?
Deploys with a banner; Within the surrounding 8 tiles of the banner, allied units have ASPD +10 and enemies have ASPD -10
I get that S2 and S3 plant the banner elsewhere and it functions as written, but what happens with S1? What happens when no skill is in effect?

[spark sinew]

banner is initially positioned on her afaik?

actually it even says so in description

[umbral jetty]

does that mean the passive is active around her all the time regardless of skills? I can't really discern the 10 Aspd visually so I was hoping someone would have tested it

[spark sinew]

it's active around the banner

[umbral jetty]

Mb didn't mean to say all the time, should have said when deployed with S1

[spark sinew]

does s3 "retrieve" the banner after the skill? i thought it didn't

ah

yeah it should be
i can ask around to be sure if you want

[ocean ether]

mountain can handle the whole thing, just need to change 2nd purple tune to yellow

[south bone]

won't he get killed by the wind player even when it's passionate

[spark sinew]

solo ops?

[glass monolith]

Fuck you boss can't read so he can now

[spark sinew]

it's just aoe, no

like splash

[south bone]

wait what the fuck, i never realized

[glass monolith]

Splash is 4 adjusted tiles. He attack Weedy Yato Berry and Fia in same attack

Where in his Bio it mentions that move?

[spark sinew]

idt splash is ever mentioned as having range

does the stage itself state increased range of attack?

[south bone]

well, phase 2 has global range

[spark sinew]

so it can be as large as they want

[glass monolith]

F u and whoever made that stage

[spark sinew]

just stop coping fia

[glass monolith]

So you have no problem with S2 Weedy at all?

[spark sinew]

one thing at a time

fia eats heals from eyja before the s1 (and techanically after, depending) in exchange for non impressive damage, no cc at all, and also being in spot that WK will try to kill a lot

in phase 1

weedy s2 does look like worse than weedy s3 there

or are those purple guys light enough? other non trash enemies weren't afaik

[dapper hedge]

Iirc they're all weight 3

[glass monolith]

Doot dudes are weight 2, elites are 3/4

i think

[vivid rain]

Yeah weedy does jackshit with s2 there

[glass monolith]

WELL NOW I KNOW IT

Which i didn't knew because bitch boss was keep killing Weedy by doing damage to every operator in his range when applying mark to 2 of operators in range WHICH THEY FORGOT TO MENTION IN HIS BIO

[regal pagoda]

I am once again asking for your assistance
Anyone could help me figure out S5 with these units? https://krooster.com/u/Sieghiro
I tried with Typhoon as Klipwc recommended me yesterday but nope

[vivid rain]

They didnt actually

[glass monolith]

[vivid rain]

Uhm doesnt specter guard literally solo that lane

[glass monolith]

There are 3 states of strategies:
It works
It doesn't work
How dumb i need to make it to have it work

[vivid rain]

With s1 even

[glass monolith]

Define that lane

[vivid rain]

The weedy lane

Duh

[glass monolith]

10 second stun during purple dudes come out in phase 2 and i can't control if they stun or not

[formal phoenix]

Will I win ?

[vivid rain]

Just kill boss within 15 seconds

[glass monolith]

How the f you people play vanguardless

[vivid rain]

No more music

[regal pagoda]

[vivid rain]

No more stun

[glass monolith]

For boss i apply same strategy i did for reflect dudes: None. Hit wall with head till something works

[vivid rain]

Peak EN rarity abuse

[ocean ether]

I mean... if you really want a dumb meme strat, just know that typhon's S3 kills boss P1 in 1 cycle

didnt bother trying with P2 since it needs a repo and I was too lazy

[vivid rain]

target ball to kill faster frfr

[glass monolith]

It is CM and bitch teleport to take selfie with like half of map. Unless you want me to have patience to kill everything else first which i don't

[dense swallow]

uuuh hi ,ive been struggling in ZT-S-5-CM for like 5 hours now and am slowly losing it, i pretty much will take every hint or help no matter how small.

[glass monolith]

[ocean ether]

which part are you struggling with

[glass monolith]

S stages and boss gained my abuse of approval cuz i have no time to even bother no 6* it

[dense swallow]

record with this was 4 enemies left that leaked

[scarlet fulcrum]

p5 arturia and max vivi, based

[vivid rain]

Strongest rarity abuser of today vs strongest rarity abuser in history

[dense swallow]

basically the second phase

not onecycling him

kyo in his vid did so and i cantreplicate it

[ocean ether]

then dont one cycle lol

[vivid rain]

You should have more than enough dps to one cycle him tho

[scarlet fulcrum]

2nd phase u chill

[dense swallow]

i went to 400x lol, got a hoederer as my last dupe, and lke 10 vivis🙂

[ocean ether]

2nd phase you can just keep spamming the ball and getting your ops to keep smacking their head against the ball until he dies

[scarlet fulcrum]

Damn, whaling

[dense swallow]

my problem is the speed up enemies eventually just

overrun me

[dense swallow]

i did it for skalter

[ocean ether]

legit, use the ball to kill the enemies

[scarlet fulcrum]

pog

[dense swallow]

any replacement suggestions here?

[ocean ether]

the turret wave clears alot better, I guarded mid lane with just mountain and having everyone smacking the ball all the time

[dense swallow]

i also got base skadi with a selector ticket lol (ill decision ik) i think you can see who my fav char is

[dense swallow]

mudrock should hold i assume?

[ocean ether]

should, just spam the ball everytime its off CD and get your ops to hit it

[scarlet fulcrum]

Alchemaniac enjoyer, truly based bro

[ocean ether]

theres more than enough time if you dont bother about one cycle

if turret is facing towards shield, it will wave clear mobs coming your way

[formal phoenix]

Fuck I slipped

[dense swallow]

should i like still go for it though, like just do as much dmg everytime i can dmg him?

my fear is i time out and lose bc thats fun

[formal phoenix]

I put Mlynar in wrong tile

[ocean ether]

you should try to time your skill activations for that, but if you cant manage to get them up, the piro is to smack the ball when turret is alligned on his position

[dense swallow]

i guess ill record an attempt and send it for further help

thanks for the help so far tho

[ocean ether]

the challenge is only hard because of first phase and the stat buff from mobs

but he resets the timer after entering 2nd phase

[glass monolith]

IS rerun soon-ish. S-5 CM - "Boss has +100 ATK in phase 2"

[formal phoenix]

Appearently Spalter module Y works better than X in this case, since that extra 0,5 SP regen is very good to stall those stun mobs with Gladiia S2

[vivid rain]

100? Not 100%?

[ocean ether]

lol at the rerun for this event... will be hilarious when we do this event with shu teleport b.s

[formal phoenix]

Oh yes, time for revenge

[ocean ether]

watch as the boss attempt to teleport away, only to be teleported back

[glass monolith]

Can she teleport phase 2 back?

[ocean ether]

if skill active, yes

[glass monolith]

[formal phoenix]

Couldn't clear all IS content since I just create account during the event

[ocean ether]

https://youtu.be/1xS6SloItuM?t=33s

thats kinda what will happen to the boss when he attempts to teleport unless they patch it by then

[dense swallow]

https://youtu.be/Zyk3pz9TKoc this could help i assume

just @ me if you have any suggestions

[flint apex]

Hey guys do yall think zt-s-3 is clearable with these ops? Couldnt exactly find a low rarity guide

[peak cloak]

do u know how to use the mechanic at least?

[flint apex]

I saw one where he used only executor alter n mylnar not sure if my silverash can replace

[peak cloak]

and know the witch king's abilities

[flint apex]

I assume is similar to the one in the main event story right? Teleporting at set health intervals, seals, n for mechanics purple n yellow chord, n orbs to hit behind shielf

[ocean ether]

I dont even know when to begin... in the first place... you are overdoing it on middle lane lol

you know what... brb

[dense swallow]

👍

[flint apex]

Im just wondering if the difficulty scaling for the stats and numbers of enemies much higher

[dense swallow]

iirc the one in -3 doesnt bind

[peak cloak]

just say, i think your current ops are enough, however the only matter thing here is how well u can use the mechanic

[ocean ether]

I am almost out of practice because I was trolling in CM just now, so if this fails I cant show you then

[flint apex]

Aights aights imma give it a shot then

[peak cloak]

but micromanagement will be insane so not sure if u could spend hours just for a stage.

after all, the even will be rerun around 1 year lated so u can leave now and come back a year later with better ops

[dense swallow]

its okay we have like, 5 days to get me to beat this stage

surely we can do that

[flint apex]

im having flashbacks no, every event at this point has me spending hours on stages

[peak cloak]

your choices. i would like to help if u decided to keep going

[flint apex]

aights thanks mate i'll try out first n then i'll dm u or tag u here!

[dense swallow]

i usually dont even go for full medal sets but i just like the event a lot so i want the medals

[peak cloak]

just tag me right there

my dm is always close to strangers cuz scammers and shitters spam shits in my dm

but after all, this is a joy for playing arknights.
micromanagements lol

[ocean ether]

you are lucky lol @dense swallow I got it on last practice

let me upload

litreally pure brute force with mostly your units though

[dense swallow]

so if i throw myself at it with the strat i should win eventually?

[ocean ether]

KEK

well... just watch it and you will know what I mean by brute force

[dense swallow]

gotcha

[ocean ether]

litreally no brain strat

[dense swallow]

i hope that my operator mastery lvls wont fuck things up

[ocean ether]

I even placed eyja, she got teleported... and i completely forgot she exists

and still cleared

thats how much brute force was involved lol

she couldnt hit anything either, so she just ate one deployment slot doing nothing

[dense swallow]

i have m3 on most of my ops i used in there except for skalter

[ocean ether]

https://youtu.be/syQUgQjIiek

swap mountain with someone else, texalter not strictly neccesary. Silverash quite necessary, but you can probably just replace him with quibai

just remember 2nd purple song needs to be inverted

but the main gist is... just brute force the ball all the time

just keep smacking the damn ball

[dense swallow]

i forgor but are silver and mlynar same archetype? bc then i could just friend unit him

or a silverash lol

[ocean ether]

mlynar has a problem because he has increased argo

so he will 100% be teleported

which is why SA used instead

[cyan gorge]

Mlynar doesn’t keep his trait stacks when teleported

[ocean ether]

but honestly, quibai is okay in SA pos

all you want, is to keep smacking the ball, everything else be damned

[forest tangle]

any tips to kill boss at this mode?

already try using full speed GG but the horde so annoying af

[cyan gorge]

You need more block

And abuse the devices

[dark glade]

Full block exalter

[forest tangle]

full defender and just high ground attacker wil work?

[cyan gorge]

Try 5 block Exalter

[forest tangle]

which block is good for exalter?

[dark glade]

Or leaking the boss is also fine

[copper solstice]

More healing

[cyan gorge]

3 defender stacks, 2 vg/guard

[forest tangle]

i see

aight gonna try this strat

[soft crystal]

I just do 4 vg 1 def

3 defenders kinda bricking

And just do less damage

[ocean ether]

anyways @dense swallow, you can probably see from the video, alot of mistakes like wrong exalter placement, gravel dying before teleport, eyja getting teleported and then just... forgotten until end of the match, but its still clearable with brute force and something close to your ops

also, dont put the ball on the middle lane, it blocks the turret

if you need more DPS, deploy eyja in the top position facing down and actually use her unlike me

[spark sinew]

don't block and just kill mobs

or the typical mlynar works

any stack works tbh

I'm pretty sure even 5 defender one would be fine

on like defender or exalter

obviously not good on chong or mly

[dense swallow]

@ocean ether I DID IT

YOU ARE MY PERSONAL HERO

[ocean ether]

gratz, probably lots of brute force lol

[dense swallow]

i have it recorded

[spark sinew]

why bother with high ground at all

get like a medic and the rest melee

[forest tangle]

bcs i just have good dps ops almost high ground

[spark sinew]

rip

mixed ranged/melee comps are at the mercy of rng usually

but can definitely work

[ocean ether]

Ok, deleting my video

[spark sinew]

how bad is your melee situation though

2/3 good carries is enough usually

[ocean ether]

why all the bunnies

[violet onyx]

Can anyone help me make a squad to beat zt-9? https://krooster.com/u/StrugglingLol

[ocean ether]

Cant help with that lol, maybe try a low rarity guide

[violet onyx]

I try and always fail

[ocean ether]

just follow something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQbgac91-NQ

[violet onyx]

Alright

[forest tangle]

just have lane holder 3 and boss killer 1

[high warren]

Squad/Op placement recommendations for event S-5 stage please

[ocean ether]

oh god I just deleted my video which is similar to this...

[high warren]

What op are key from mine

[ocean ether]

^ this guy lol

[soft crystal]

Borrow exalter

[ocean ether]

pozy, eyjalter, ines, mytle, blaze, someone to tank middle, probably hoshi

surtr can be on smacking ball duty

oh wait i still have 6 practice...

hmm

ah well gimme awhile

[high warren]

It's fine you don't need work that much

[high warren]

He can solo right or some ?

[ocean ether]

right side use blaze and healed by eyjalter

just keep smacking the ball and you can win bascially

[high warren]

Blaze can solo right with eyjalter?

[ocean ether]

yes

just keep smacking the ball and turret will clear most of mobs

including boss

[high warren]

Should be easy w assuming I won't need skalter

[ocean ether]

you shouldnt, that one was tailored for miunya lol

[high warren]

I see

[spark sinew]

doesn't say anything to me but sure

it's more about the quality and how good they're in SSS

SA mountain bagpipe surtr roster is very different to say, exec chongyue mlynar penance mud

[soft crystal]

He sort of solos middle

[spark sinew]

he can also be used on right but there are better options usually

honestly the clears use him everywhere

i think i saw him being deployed on the far top left as well

[ocean ether]

completely out of practice so I cant take a vid

[dense swallow]

mine is 7 min long but i can send if you need it

[ocean ether]

when are they going to get rid of the stupid 3 practice per challenge.... next anniv?

[spark sinew]

not sure if they did

but failing it would cost 1 sanity iirc

it's not anni for us though

should be the same time as lonetrail was previous year

or was our "anni" not always a summer event?

[ocean ether]

no idea, first year for me

[spark sinew]

cn is still yet to have theirs, and it should be next limited event after logos

[lusty basin]

oh blitzing phase 1 in S-5 CM by end of second checkpoint actually isn't awful since you have time to kill the Cellists

there's a good tile for Pozy to do it

[ocean ether]

theres also a perfect typhon tile

[lusty basin]

eheh

I don't own Typhon so I wasn't sure how quickly you could wind it up without mob leaks

[ocean ether]

Typhon's S3 can solo P1 without any assistance, though you need someone to block mobs

I was memeing around to see if I could get a typhon clear

[lusty basin]

[ocean ether]

P2 is terrible though, she hits the ball too slowly and mobs get in the way

though... it might be possible to redeploy her behind the boss and just yoink him

though I wonder if you cant just use her S2 on the typhon tile and just treat her as an AA DPS

[spark sinew]

sounds like thorns with extra steps, wait that's always the case

although she is notably harder to kill on that stage

[ocean ether]

though typhon does alot more dmg than thorns

[spark sinew]

are you talking about the topmost tile

[ocean ether]

yep

top pointed down

perfect typhon tile that covers mid lane

[spark sinew]

does she

they have very similar dps i thought

post ramp

[ocean ether]

https://youtu.be/t6Bl3jyNuiE?si=BTl9VAYSF0m3xs5X&t=60

[spark sinew]

7-18 "showcase", sure

[soft crystal]

Pretty sure this boss has like really low def to not matter

[spark sinew]

typhon wins because of def ignore

[soft crystal]

Well relatively low

[spark sinew]

the event thingy has 0 res 0 def

ye

boss is like 1200

in p2

[soft crystal]

Yeah thorns also multi hit the thing

With the dot

[ocean ether]

wouldnt typhon be less setup though? Dont need to hit the enemies

though targetting piroty will probably screw up the ball

cant test now since I used up all my practice

[soft crystal]

Less set up when thorns can hit ball?

[ocean ether]

thats true

use both then

[spark sinew]

yeah use exu

[soft crystal]

I actually used exu

[glass monolith]

Just use QuBik

[spark sinew]

yeah exu seems the best one here if you want to burst

god knows you ain't gonna use her effectively going in blind though

[ocean ether]

swap exu for pozy and you can just go in blind while ignoring timings

[soft crystal]

What if ash

[ocean ether]

I saw this https://youtu.be/D1O4qOSXfb4?si=DfNwyD_TgPuRkb8J&t=476

[forest tangle]

after many try/rng, its work

thanks for recommend to use exalter

the right side really stack of enemy but easy shred by suzu and exalter

[lusty basin]

oh also I didn't think Witch King RNG mattered

until Gravel got plopped onto a Cellist and bumped him in range of two ops

funny way to wipe

Herky does a lil trolling

[ornate loom]

the ebenholz and gnosis banner isnt good for beginners right?

[spark sinew]

it's not good for anyone

any "standard" banner with 2 rateups is bad, generally

[clever rock]

need help with placement for cm, I keep getting stunned in the middle tiles

[karmic glade]

You probably dont need that much medics

Every attack from the boss follows deployment order and taunt, just place your ops accordingly

[cyan gorge]

Less medics, more aoe dps

[spark sinew]

they're just showing their roster

stun wise you either don't kill phase 1 and just flip the passionate music

or you need to burst them before they go to the blue

arturia and doro can help with that

[wooden blaze]

Finally.

I didn't know how I defeated this stage lol.

I was really lucky.

[ripe grail]

I need a team for zt s 3 pls
Can't deal with the 2nd phase😭

[wooden blaze]

Do you use the stage mechanic?

[cyan gorge]

Phase 2 is just abusing the turret

Use more turret

[wooden blaze]

Yah, turret is your friend.

Take two operators like GreyThroat and Poze and use the turret.

Also use the fast buff melody

[spark sinew]

well in second phase you can't really "use" it i think

if you're getting wiped by reflect guys, you can use say suzu to just slow them outside of your ops range

[wooden blaze]

What you mean you can't use it?

[spark sinew]

boss locks the music

and plays whatever he wants

you can't influence it

[cyan gorge]

Boss controls the melody, thus no speed buff on demand

[wooden blaze]

Oh.

[dry eagle]

Does anyone have a Executor Alter Lv90 s3m3 mod3?

[wooden blaze]

I thought boss disables the turret.

Lmao.

[cyan gorge]

I have but not 90

[wooden blaze]

Well, anyways my advice still there. Op like GreyThroat and Poze are great with turret without buff.

[spark sinew]

i do but i can't login for...hour or two

[ripe grail]

so i just
put poze in some distant tile and use her skill whenever the turret is available?

[wooden blaze]

Sorry for late reply, was showering.

Yes

Use her turret too.

Make sure the boss doesn't teleport her.

[lusty basin]

most importantly with Pozy, make sure the Typewriter is hitting the boss, not the turret

[graceful bear]

Why the heck is ZT-S-3 much harder than ZT-S-5?

[wooden blaze]

Oh, it's called typewriter.

Why shouldn't it be used to attack the turret too?

[lusty basin]

you want to put its DEF debuff on the boss

[wooden blaze]

Oh it has DEF debuff?

[lusty basin]

yepyep

[wooden blaze]

Understandable then.

It would have killed boss lot faster than lol.

[lusty basin]

depending on whether or not the Cellist in-between is in the way for your strat

[mossy pike]

I never considered pozy against this boss

My strat is like, shower all skills on orb and let turret kill boss

[lusty basin]

:D

[mossy pike]

Also, first event where I didn't rely on guides so im happy with what strat my feeble brain came up with

[lusty basin]

I like how this boss has both anti-Mlynar design (taunting teleport) and anti-Surtr design (no RES to ignore through turret, but gets gated by DEF)
and yet they're both still terrific

[spark sinew]

surtr felt pretty bad

hell, mlynar also felt bad

maybe i just have too big of a roster

[mossy pike]

I don't have mlynar unfortunately

[lusty basin]

yea it's nice to see effective anti-Mlynar design to where you have to work with his downsides

[spark sinew]

I'm sure the situation is different if those are your only 6*

just burst boss very fast and use mlynar after

[lusty basin]

eheh basically, in S-5 I just used him after phase 1 to clear out the melancholic mob wave

[mossy pike]

This was my clear for s-5 (which i just did recently), it's uhh very complicated. I wonder how other people simplified this stage.

It was fun to see yato and texas teleport 3 times in a row tho

[glass monolith]

During Eyja alter event i brought Pozy to S stage and she just uninstalled boss

[mossy pike]

I do have pozy built. I should try that for fun

[glass monolith]

You can have Pozy be one who hit ball too

Wait i can even S2 that ball

[mossy pike]

Pozy on ball and typewriter on boss then?

Probably won't work on 2nd form. Coz boss camps on far left

[glass monolith]

As you like, if you have practice plans go wild

[graceful bear]

Abyssal Hunters make for good teleport baiters since they're very survivable
Exu to hold mid and burst boss

[lusty meadow]

I need help clearing st 5 challenge mode I can't beat it bcz the boss keeps teleporting a lot

This is the squad I'm using

[worldly stirrup]

If you have exu. Try bring her.
She really good for this event.
Or any AA sniper with multi hit like chetto

[dapper hedge]

Finally lol, they key is to kill WK before the stun guys spawn in phase2

[modern plover]

Why sa there lol

[dapper hedge]

Got tp'ed but that's fine, I put the ball in front gav and his s3 still hit there

[modern plover]

I see

[west path]

St 1 is way harder kek

Me who play the team that include 4 specialists

[glass monolith]

S-1 CM slapping Ethan out of my hand

[steady adder]

Is there any tip for dealing with the happy train in SSS challenge mode ?

[cosmic thicket]

I typically use exec mlynar penance as carries

ground comp is the best

[steady adder]

The train is so tanky in challenge mode

I can't even find youtube videos of the sss in challenge mode

[cosmic thicket]

#help message

this is my comp

other ops are just stacks and are pretty replacable

placements, typically u build penance first then exec then mlynar

make sure to give penance 1 defender stack

[steady adder]

I'll give it a go thank you

[cosmic thicket]

i give exec 2 defender stacks most of the time but 1 is fine

[steady adder]

What is exec replacement? If any?

[cosmic thicket]

he's pretty core actually

IMO he's the most important out of the 3 cores

penance is the 2nd most important, and mlynar the least important

if you have qiubai i think u can replace mlynar with her

[steady adder]

I have everything but exec

[cosmic thicket]

borrow

[spark sinew]

would stalker in the middle be a good choice

if adding stuff

i suppose no, since it would overkill anyway and can't really solo carry

[cosmic thicket]

very possible

could try mizuki s1 in my next run to replace mlynar

[normal sand]

are ZT-S-5 Cm usually teleport 3 people at once? (texas alter, yato, mudrock)

almost every guide i watch, the boss only teleport 2 people only

or is this a bug only in EN server?

[spark sinew]

in my run (back in the very first rotation) i missed all my carries at the bottom (and clogged the deck due to quests needing to add some bad classes) i just leaked it
it doesn't actually do anything bad and only costs 2hp

[ocean ether]

You can brute force the stage by just hitting the ball all the time

[mossy pike]

That's what I did. Bahaha put the ball in the middle and activate everyone's skill. Boss was dead before porting to top right/left corners

[ocean ether]

middle is a terrible placement, because it blocks the turrets

place it on 1st or 3rd lane in the middle area

[mossy pike]

For my strat, it was necessary. Coz i kill the boss while he is still on the right side

[ocean ether]

then just keep smacking the balls and the projectiles will kill the boss and all the mobs

[mossy pike]

And everyone gets to smash the ball

But yes, i sure made my clear complicated and rushed.

[south bone]

Damn i forgot he does an effing global dmg when phase 1 ended how can i heal now

[glass monolith]

He does global dmg damage when applying mark in phase 2 too

[latent monolith]

Exalt can attack the orb

[south bone]

well ofc he can, i'm talking bout bibeak and the others

[glass monolith]

Updated enemy info made it readable. But reading it reveals HG/Yostar either fuck up translation (Cliff on global) or simply don't include part of skill in description at all (Part about doing damage to operators within 3/global tiles simply not in description on CN and global)

[ocean ether]

what happened to your healer? Why did you only bring one when this looks like a low rarity ops lol

is that eyjalter?

[vocal leaf]

thats perfumer

[modern copper]

In 3-5, the butcher overwhelms me

Like where am I supposed to place the healers for optimal coverage

[cosmic thicket]

use silence s2

the drone will help u a lot

[modern copper]

SHOOT IT ISNT DEFAULTED

https://tenor.com/view/clash-royale-yay-knight-clash-knight-coc-gif-25371570

[cosmic thicket]

ur also using may s1, click s1, and myrtle s2

[crisp bolt]

[modern copper]

May s2 is better?

[summer copper]

bro managed to choose the worst s

[marsh solar]

the extra stages for zt are murdering me. doing s-3 cm now and i just suck at dealing with witch king. furthest ive gotten is 30 enemies, but it took too long and he used his one shot
could anyone maybe come in vc with me and help if thats okay? im worried about the game turning off if i keep going back and forth to send screenshots (im on phone

[cosmic thicket]

i like it because it hasa high +atk

[dark glade]

Vc gaming

:pausechamp:

[vivid rain]

[summer copper]

[scarlet mortar]

papuka gaming

i like how you proc'd catapult's skill even though it basically did exactly the same damage

[summer copper]

thats for the drones

altho could of replace catapult with kroos and put cata in the lower bush to do afk

[scarlet mortar]

her aoe reaches anw

the last wave needed it ig

[summer copper]

would miss 2 for the 2nd wave

[scarlet mortar]

yh that

actually no her edge tile reaches

lmao

they go into hibi's tile

[summer copper]

it will miss some drones
i tried afk with this at the start but dmg was not enough

[scarlet mortar]

probs some timing shenanigans

[summer copper]

idk ye maybe

anyways this is low enough you can't really expect afk with such a low squad

[modern copper]

im starting to believe that catapult is good

thats not bood is it?

[modern copper]

shit i forgot to default clicks one

and myrtle gives healing no???

[summer copper]

whats bood

oh good

ye 3*s are not good unless u wanna play some low rarity squad oftenly

its just mostly used to carry new players to get through ch9 with help of some extra 6*

[scarlet mortar]

it's poor healing, considering she's the best DP printer you don't really want to compromise with S2

S1 gets everyone fielded the fastest

once your squad is set you just want to retreat myrtle

[south bone]

I don't understand, i just can't get the grasp of this shit

why the fuck did he teleport quercus and executor, they're not even 2 last deployed for fuck sake

[vivid rain]

Prob timing

[dapper hedge]

Ethan has minus agro so he won't get tped if he was one of your last deploy

[south bone]

my last deployed was puzzle and canta

he wasn't even in turret's range when i deployed them

[vivid rain]

He’s just goof like that

Welp -10 sanity

Should’ve brought more backup plans

[south bone]

I'm not gonna touch this cm for a while

[marsh solar]

he just did the same to me

[ocean ether]

did he mark them?

mark is global range in P2, if you placed cant and puzzle after he marked (and you didnt destroy the mark) he is just going to teleport whoever he marked

especially since you are playing very minimal operators and low rarity for some reason I cannot fathom

attack range covers the whole battlefield

[south bone]

right, right let's say that makes sende

but teleporting quercus?

[ocean ether]

where was she deployed in p1

theres a possibility she got teleported in P1 to the same position with a different orientation (happened to my eyja before) and you didnt realize.

That mark dosent clear when changing phases so you enter p2 with exalter marked

and then both of them got teleported

[scarlet mortar]

the mark isn't what's tp'ing them i think

it only binds ops and force retreats them on second cast

[ocean ether]

its possible to be marked just before you burst the boss down, so there isnt enough time to clear the marks

[high kettle]

wtf

i was doing zt-s-5

[ocean ether]

did you clear?

[high kettle]

mfw i thought iwas doing cm

i was still on normal

[ocean ether]

KEK

[high kettle]

HAHAHAHHAHAHAH

[ocean ether]

well, 20 sanity flew away

[high kettle]

also yea i cleared normal

ripperino

[scarlet mortar]

yh but that doesn't change the tp order

[ocean ether]

TP order gets changed if marked because that op bascially gets slapped with mlynar's increased argo talent

[high kettle]

last time on cm i fked up dps timing or smth p2 wouldnt die with exalter, also kept dying cuz of trumpet stabbers not enough dp to deploy baiters

[scarlet mortar]

you can't have more than 2 marks and the boss tp's the last two ops deployed

so taunt is consistent

only exception is when you deploy someone after two ops have the mark

[ocean ether]

there was someone else I helped ystd where I just brute forced the deployment

[scarlet mortar]

idt that's what happened?

[ocean ether]

like no brainstrat, just pure brute force

[ocean ether]

I reuploaded the video last night because someone else needed it. https://youtu.be/Cxq60UdKWLc

Anyways, lots of mistakes in deployment (like exalter deployed in wrong pos multiple times) gravel dying before teleport, eyja panic placement, teleported and then completely forgotten until end of the match... but somehow got a clear for him

[high kettle]

wheeze

i think i have it

last time was just wrong dps timing

also kaltsit kinda cooked for whittling down last p1 hps

[ocean ether]

just keep smackning the ball and you can clear tbh

[high kettle]

when he tp to top right

lol

though i could just do it with portal anyway
