strategy

[pallid veldt]

how undereleveled

[cinder walrus]

E1

not max level

[pallid veldt]

should be winnable

its just an arts damage check

tbh

[cinder walrus]

yeah i'm not having high level art damage

[cyan gorge]

Ifrit makes the stage very easy if you have her

[cinder walrus]

i do have her

level 1 E0

[pallid veldt]

💪

[polar zodiac]

[cinder walrus]

so no sniper needed on this stage?

ranged guard and tank and caster

[pallid veldt]

bring a sniper or two

they can help a little early in the stage

besides if ur that early on you probably dont have much else better to bring anyways

[cinder walrus]

i can't beat the big guy that keep stunning my guy

[pallid veldt]

yeah thats just an arts damage check

alternatively you can just throw bodies

like if an op gets stunned u undeploy it and redeploy

and maybe try to keep doing that until your steward or whatever can kill

[cinder walrus]

amiyi

i have problem with DP

even maxxed myrtle

[polar zodiac]

the bring another vanguard

[cinder walrus]

i did

[dapper hedge]

Those hammer guy can be silenced I'm pretty sure

[polar zodiac]

yea

[dapper hedge]

So lappy

[cinder walrus]

never e2 her

[dapper hedge]

You dont need her e2 just for silence

[obsidian skiff]

Watch CE6 low end squad by kyostinv on yt, how to beat it with only 3 stars squad

[cinder walrus]

i don't wanna

i put ifrint in front of defender line and she keep dying

what can i do

[narrow pendant]

Put her more to the back

[cyan gorge]

There are 0 ranged enemies on right side, how is she even dying

[cinder walrus]

then how am i suppose to heal defender in front of her

i only have 3 defender who have high enough man

[obsidian skiff]

Could u give ss of ur squad so we'll know what u have?

[spark sinew]

why bother beating ce6

[cinder walrus]

i beat it

in practice mode

[spark sinew]

don't tell me it's your answer to not having lmd

but didn't you have like half the team e2

[cinder walrus]

i have E2 team

[narrow pendant]

Then u shouldnt be struggling

[spark sinew]

then why are you trust farming? ce6

[cinder walrus]

i have E2 mytle, gravel, conviction and mudrock

i farm for lmd

[cinder walrus]

yes

[cyan gorge]

Just invest in your base slaves

Better use of sanity

[mighty pagoda]

sanity to drones to drone lmd almost same gain as farming lmd

[cinder walrus]

[cinder walrus]

wdym drone lmd

[narrow pendant]

The thing tutorial told u

[spark sinew]

is it really? sounds insane

[pallid veldt]

whar

[mighty pagoda]

it is insane

[mighty pagoda]

drone trading post

[spark sinew]

but yeah even shittiest base roster gains like 45k lmd/day

[cinder walrus]

i got 35k

[smoky halo]

i think my JP made like 40k at the start

[cinder walrus]

cause i have 2 TP 2 Gold

[smoky halo]

ur doing something wrong

my JP makes like ~45k now asuming i login twice a day

lv up ur base slaves

[pallid veldt]

yeah just e1 like ur 4*s

should be pretty easy to hit 40-50k

[smoky halo]

[cyan gorge]

With bare minimum management, I still average 52k a day

[turbid badge]

same

[spark sinew]

40k is like 2 tp with 90% workers and amiya ye

[turbid badge]

i got lazy on cn'

[mighty pagoda]

i get only 50k, i do use r6 in cc tho

[turbid badge]

never check base

am doomed

[spark sinew]

without droning

[cinder walrus]

i thought CE-6 give 20k

why i only got 10k

[pallid veldt]

its 10k

[narrow pendant]

Because you thought wrong

Thats why

[odd forge]

dont mind me, i just cooking my own

[spark sinew]

btw you should undeploy typewriter if you're not using it

so it begins to recharge redeploy asap

[odd forge]

ah, thats fine, some operators are still alive

[spark sinew]

mostly advice for the future, when chapters will not be so easy because of high levels

[odd forge]

ohhh i see, i will keepin that mind

[cunning river]

Okay I'm seeing what the issue is with 8 CM

You have to somehow manage to hold the initial rush and set up enough DPS to kill the boss ASAP

[spark sinew]

you don't need to do it asap

enemies are fairly squishy so you can make a death zone

well, your acc can

there's also no real "rush" early on, it's like 3 dogs

[cunning river]

I mean they're not that squishy

Also if you don't kill it ASAP the issue is that the later rush of mobs is unmanageable with that -1 block

[cyan gorge]

Bring aoe

[spark sinew]

use slower + some dps

bonus points for two in one like chalter

but ye this is assuming you can't kill the boss asap

killing it fairly fast is still better

[cunning river]

Issue is that AoE units are kind chunky cost wise

Or need more prepwork to work like Fiammetta

Yeah no idea

Phase 2 is just brutal

[cyan gorge]

I used just Executor2 + a random defender

[cunning river]

I'm using right now Gavialter and Mudrock for the top lane

The issue is doing that + handling the boss

Goddammit

[spark sinew]

go do other cms first...

now you don't have plans so you might even fail some of them which is a shame

[nocturne cove]

spawn kill her first phase

and then mlynar

[cosmic thicket]

yeah

[nocturne cove]

top lane???

[cunning river]

Yes

[nocturne cove]

only 3 armored guy come through top lane

like the topmost lane

[cunning river]

I am spawn killing her first phase

[cosmic thicket]

i was gonna drop a clear but it seems like you're already copying it

[nocturne cove]

are you bringing mlynar as support?

[cunning river]

Nope

[nocturne cove]

bring him

[cunning river]

I've been doing my own strat

[nocturne cove]

makes it easy

[cosmic thicket]

https://youtu.be/SHQwDnI4Ajo?feature=shared

[cunning river]

I have no idea how Mlynar works

[spark sinew]

read more carefully

and you would realize that there's no need to

[cosmic thicket]

true

[cunning river]

How reliant on modules is this

[wintry hinge]

Is there an Afk way to beag Hs-9 wihout messing up by rng

[polar crane]

Ling solve the rng problem

if you want just use ines

for slow and chip damage

[wintry hinge]

I have her at lvl70 S3M3 and first stage module

[polar crane]

that's good enough

I bring like 4 ops for that stages

[wintry hinge]

Which?

[polar crane]

ines, reed and gg

Ling in there too

[wintry hinge]

I dont have reedic and gg

[spark sinew]

hs was the shu event right

[wintry hinge]

Yey

[polar crane]

anything that kill the guy bottom right will do

any caster

[spark sinew]

what would be rng there

[polar crane]

the pond, sometime it is so red that ling dragon will die sooner than expected

her dot and phase1 boss thing

[cunning river]

This works for phase 1 but crumbles completely phase 2

You simply can't kill the clone and Ya fast enough

And you get swarmed to death

[quartz pawn]

How do you clear H13-4 without Mlynar?

[cunning river]

Yeah this strat ain't working

[cosmic thicket]

there's like 5 other squad slots bring a texalter or something idk

[cunning river]

Yeah I am doing that, but it's simply not enough

Pozy's damage varies a lot

[bold lance]

Video has Warf. Man brings no Warf. Complains about low damage.

[cunning river]

Yeah I don't have Warf

[spark sinew]

only moduled units are the ones who have meh modules

[cunning river]

That's why I'm bringing Skalter

[bold lance]

Cool. They do not work comparably.

[cunning river]

Well, I didn't know that

So to answer my question above, this strat is module reliant

Good to know

[bold lance]

It's reliant on bringing the correct operators.

[cunning river]

Which I did

Like if you wanted to argue that it's cause I didn't bring Warfarin, then the issue would only have been on the bottom lane

But it's both middle and bottom that failed

Cause they don't do enough damage to phase 2

[bold lance]

Have you tried reading how the boss works? It might explain why failing to kill one of them leads to issues with both.

[cunning river]

Yes I have

I know how the boss works

[spark sinew]

skalter3 might work

[cunning river]

The other big issue with that strat is that using just Gavial for the shield guys is kind of a dice roll

70 sanity in the drain

How long until they do away with the challenge penalty?

Like 3 months more?

[narrow pendant]

With walter yws

[cunning river]

Can't wait

Game's gonna be like 10 times better once the penalty is gone

I can't find a guide that's close to my roster, goddamn

[polar zodiac]

do you have other dps? or just borrow a warfarin

skalter S3 might work but I think it will be tight

[cunning river]

I have plenty of DPS but the issue is kind of everything, not just the damage

Like phase 2 also hits like a truck

I have maybe two more tries

[polar zodiac]

probably the easiest way is to bring 3 dps (the more broken the better, like mlynar or typhon) and then for second phase suzuran heals + slows + fragile

[cunning river]

Right now Typhon is just not cutting it for phase 2

[delicate flare]

wait are you stalling Ya?

[polar zodiac]

I mean she should be able to take care of one of the yas at least

[cunning river]

Nope

[polar zodiac]

[cunning river]

Yeah no, nowhere even close

[delicate flare]

ah alright

are you doing cm or normal mode

[cunning river]

This is CM

Okay, very last try and I'm out of stamina

Any genius ideas are welcome

[polar zodiac]

use practice plans if you are unsure

[cunning river]

I already spent all the practice plans

[polar zodiac]

[delicate flare]

just bring a 2 block guard to stall her once she moves (I really like mountain for his self regen), mop up all the mobs until 19/27, let your guard punch her phase 1 to death and activate Typhon S3 to cheese phase 2

[cunning river]

But then you have her clone she uses on phase 1 to deal with

I can give stalling a try, but no idea if it'll work

[delicate flare]

her clone is really weak, you can place any sniper on the ranged tiles behind your stalling guard to spawn camp her

chalter works well for that tbh

and just generally mop up everything

[cunning river]

Yep, didn't work

Well that sucks

[delicate flare]

what did your op placement looks like

[cunning river]

Does it matter, I'm completely out of stamina

Does this one get archived right away?

[delicate flare]

yeah it's a rerun, medals don't matter anyways

[narrow pendant]

This is your last few hours to get the medals

Once it ends, it gets shoved into side story

[cunning river]

Who the fuck cares about medals

I say that as someone who has trimmed his fair share of CCs

[glass monolith]

Everyone who completed one medal set and has large EGO

[narrow pendant]

If u did cc, then how are u struggling with this

[glass monolith]

Depends which CC, which risk and other shit

[narrow pendant]

What u could use is another actual ground unit
Mudmud solos left lane, and surtr isnt exactly a ground unit for the top

[cunning river]

It's almost like the maps aren't exact copies of each other

But yeah, doesn't matter

Stamina out, guess I'm dropping this one for the foreseeable future

[narrow pendant]

Cant believe it

[polar zodiac]

something something

2 flags for dp

maybe another dps to make it easier

you can use marksman to kill clones too in 1st phase or smt

[delicate flare]

I think typhon off skill might even be able to kill her clones but I'm not sure since she may prioritize Ya's shield dudes

[polar zodiac]

yea she should help but just to make sure a sniper is good. you still got slots in the squad anyway

[delicate flare]

yup, pozy s2 should be more than good enough

[cunning river]

Yeah I did pretty much this, except wiht Pozy added in there

[wintry hinge]

H12?

[wintry hinge]

Where is it?

[polar zodiac]

this is WB EX 8 challenge

unless you mean the H12 tile

[polar zodiac]

then why you lose, not enough damage on typhon?

[wintry hinge]

ok

[wintry hinge]

Which web site do u do this?

[polar zodiac]

https://map.ark-nights.com/map/

[halcyon idol]

that website is od

its so good

[halcyon idol]

what ops you have, maybe you could use the strat i used

#strategy message

[cunning river]

Yeah I have those but as I said, I'm done for today

[cunning river]

Seems like. I think the clone just walked far enough to generate too much mist

[polar zodiac]

ye you can put a sniper there to help, like exu or krooster

[glass monolith]

Boss still has like uh... how much 720 def on cm?

[delicate flare]

550 def 50 res iirc

[glass monolith]

wait THIS small?

On event where +30% damage done to low ground from high ground is just free mechanic (After fucking LE taking away 50% of my SP and Exalter event civilinas consuming all DP)

[delicate flare]

yeah with 85k hp, cm stats btw , def feels weaker than harold ngl

[glass monolith]

Of course feel weaker Harold was damage reduction and this shit damage amplified

[delicate flare]

Harold boss vs haroldberry😭

[round hinge]

Do u need to build thorns if u already got silverash

[glass monolith]

Well nothing prevents you from doing that

[cyan gorge]

Why pick one or the other when you can have both

[neat skiff]

Silverash is more of a nuke while Thorns is more of a gatling gun.

[spark sinew]

they occupy vastly different niches

but if you think SA performs well currently, your roster probably wouldn't mind thorns

[neat skiff]

Really helps that their modules are almost all pretty great and thematically appropriate.

[glass monolith]

i assume he left or whatever, so at least ping him if you want him to know

[latent anvil]

silverash is so op

[polar zodiac]

man is living in 2020

[summer copper]

*also maybe when silverash mod

[cinder walrus]

Why scavenger and corridor are almost the same

I dont get it

It practically same skill and stuff

[strange fable]

corridor 💀

[strange fable]

their s2 is different tho

They work similarly enough so yeah, both pioneer archtype

[narrow patrol]

Ya is mostly more bullshit than Harold due to the most mechanic but honestly. Harold is more straight up fuck you with mapwide nukes

Pretty sure if you don’t maintain the heaters it’ll take a lot more damage to kill Harold compared to Ya

[narrow pendant]

Ya is leagues easier

Hes squishy, does barely any dmg

Only annoying thing is his switching, p2 being hovering and the tiles he spawns

[vivid owl]

Ya is easier she is hard countered by Typhoon S3M3 which can solo her entire phase 2

[sly drift]

Who is the hardest modern boss i wonder

[polar crane]

gardener cuz you cant even kill him

0 def 0 res

[sly drift]

Except you actually can

[narrow pendant]

Touching grass

[sly drift]

EZ. I touch grass everyday

[turbid badge]

cant u hole him with shu lol

[smoky halo]

cresson in sentinel

[turbid badge]

saw ut on bili

[mild fox]

does anyone remember at what kill do i retreat shaw

nvm figured out

[polar zodiac]

[mighty pagoda]

2021 gaming

[narrow pendant]

That gg carry?

Damn

[merry narwhal]

Shaw can be retreated rather early because she only has to kill 2 of the big sanics

i could have sworn that wave was at like 150 (I was wrong)

[tidal sedge]

When is new opperators banner coming out ?

[narrow pendant]

31st

[tidal sedge]

Sad

[spark sinew]

with that setup you needed a pusher on the bot i thought

and then it gets retreated after pushing x amount of casters(?)

[dull veldt]

how did you guys pass dh-5? i tried multiple times by myself before looking up a guide. The guide needed strong vanguards and my units were still not strong enough

any ideas on how to beat this level?

[lapis hornet]

@pallid veldt

help this fella

[astral cosmos]

what's your squad

[polar zodiac]

no fang

[polar zodiac]

thats better but I need to check the stage cuz Iforgor

[dull veldt]

the first squad is the one that the guide recommended

the second one is the one that i used generally to beat stages

[astral cosmos]

using purestream generally is wild

[polar zodiac]

well yea, specially since she is e0

wait water is the mechanic of this so you can stall the big guys I guess. it shouldnt be too hard if you put defenders and just in general block until water kills them, you need decent healing tho

are you gonnw borrow or not?

[astral cosmos]

and you won't get stunned since lappa

[polar zodiac]

dont forget to equipd badges too, they have neat effects

something something

you can use better characters you have like lappland or ray

if your vanguards are weak, you can just support them with cheap units like norma kroos, rangers, durin... these mobs are weak so they provide enough extra dps to hold until you deploy a couple guards/defenders

(btw I kinda inted the steward position, but lets ignore that)

[dull veldt]

Inted?

Im scared my guards will die but I will try this later

[dull veldt]

Who should I borrow

I just want tequila lol

[polar zodiac]

its not very good.

[dull veldt]

Which order did you out your units in

[polar zodiac]

well there are a few characters that can trivialize the stage but since you dont have E2 some good options are: mountain, can hold 1 lane alone and he is strong, eyja alter if you need alot of healing, GG with S2 can clear alot of these enmies easily, same with typhon if placed well

you have quite a few good options

[dull veldt]

Ahh okayy

Also do you not need someone to support the bottom two defenders

[polar zodiac]

vanguards first (where guards are standing), then a sniper to help them like normal kroos, then medics, defenders, then put as many dps units you want and swap vanguards with beefier ground units

[dull veldt]

Ahhh okayyy

[polar zodiac]

they are both healing defenders and there are healers healing them too, they wont die. I have steward helping cardigan but honestly it wasnt really needed. if you feel they do need help just slap a caster or two

[dull veldt]

Do you do this after you put the guards down or before

Also what should be my teamM

[polar zodiac]

before, I swapped the vanguards for guards as last step. btw instead of guards you can also use defenders like cuora and if you have a ranged dps units helping clear small mobs it should be safer

[dull veldt]

I don't have any good healers lol

[polar zodiac]

I have to say my ansel and hibiscus are E1 55

[dull veldt]

Is pure stream worse than those two

Even at e1

?

[polar zodiac]

hmm not worse really, its just she is more expensive and does almost the same

I guess she does have more range but yea

[astral cosmos]

purestream isn't really made for raw healing, but more for utility as a therapist for status resistance
she still has good burst healing though, but build ansel first

[dull veldt]

When do I switch to pure stream?

[astral cosmos]

when you need a therapist

which is not often

[polar zodiac]

purestream is probably better at E2 cuz she just stat checks all 3* healers

but then you will probably have better 5* healers or lumen might actually appear again

[dull veldt]

For now.... Ansel?

[astral cosmos]

pretty much

[polar zodiac]

he is more goated than you think

[astral cosmos]

he's easier to get to e1, too

[dull veldt]

Nice nice okay

I'll try this stage again

Who else should be on my team btw

To give me the best chance

[polar zodiac]

well just use your best units by following the strat kinda. you can also borrow a strong one as I mentioned. you should definitely use lappland and ray. both kroos too

gravel is a nice operator in emergencies to block an enemy or smt

and it would be nice if you had gummy but it is what it is 😔

[astral cosmos]

spot is good enough

[dull veldt]

I guess I'll borrow mountain lol

[astral cosmos]

it's not a farming stage anyway

[polar zodiac]

dont forget the stamps

[dull veldt]

Which stamps are best?

[polar zodiac]

well it depends on the stage

just pick the best ones you can

there are some neat ones like +200 defense or vnaguard/defender

[dull veldt]

For this one in particular

I'm not gonna do the story for a while after I get tequila lol

The pain is real

[polar zodiac]

which ones you have

[spark sinew]

probably level your base workers

and grab purestream from recruit

[polar zodiac]

just pick the ones that benefit ground units instead of ranged, they are the ones taking erosion mostly

[mighty pagoda]

Pick trust buffs

[tidal sedge]

Anyone have fiammetta for me ?

[spark sinew]

depends on your standards

[merry narwhal]

her main selling point is her massive range and her module gains. She's quite a bit more expensive than ansel though and you can always just bring two medics instead of one with a large range, so as a beginner she's not a priority to build

[turbid badge]

ceylon the wackapist

s1 doesn't have status resistance

[dull veldt]

so just take all the ground unit buffs

okay

[spark sinew]

ranged atk seems way way better here

especially since you literally have nothing but 3 melee raised

[turbid badge]

these pillars attack invis enemies

[dull veldt]

Okay so the main problem now is that my vanguards are leaking enemies through, both kroos die from the shooters and yeah overall death

[narrow pendant]

Gramophone meta

[dull veldt]

No matter what my vanguards keep leaking enemies

[dull veldt]

Helppp

[spark sinew]

another case in point why vanguards are useless

are you using defenders?

vanguards can't really tank nor damage

[dull veldt]

i meant vanguards at the start

and then my guards at the bottom also leak enemie

[viscid mist]

did they fix sanguinarch in h13-4

I spent a lot of cycles waiting for the second wave to appear and it just didn't happen

[dull veldt]

i meant my defenders at the bottom

[glass monolith]

You need to have boss, all blood shits, and crystals dead at once, should work

[dull veldt]

are my vanguards and defenders just not strong enough?

[viscid mist]

ah

everything needs to die?

how even

this sounds too complicated

[glass monolith]

[viscid mist]

it was super easy in h13-3

[glass monolith]

I slapped H13-4 will full rarity abuse power because my attempt on no 6* were not scuffed enough

[polar zodiac]

[viscid mist]

i am really bad with ch13 mechanics

keeping the sanguinarch blood aura out of the worms

they just end up swarming and leaking

when i can play the start i always win the stage though

[narrow pendant]

Doesnt true dmg just invalidates the entirety of ch13 revival mechanic anyway

[glass monolith]

My H13-4 no 6* attempt died somewhere around end of wave 1. Then i seen what whave 2 is... And quit

[narrow pendant]

Except the weird guys that turn inti flowers

[polar zodiac]

how are vanguards leaking at the start when they have help from sniper? anyway you can put an extra healers for your ranged units but generally I didnt need it myself

[viscid mist]

even if you kill the crystal

crystals*

at least h13-4 has way too many of them

i kind of struggled against h13-2 too

but that's because my approach was stupid

🫡

[narrow pendant]

I played thru ch13 only on story diff for now cuz needed recipe
Still only on ch12 going thru on adverse but its slow cuz almost 50 sanity per stage

[viscid mist]

[narrow pendant]

And also ch12 mechanic sucks massive balls

Cannon annoyance was leagues better than this dp limit and civilian scanning bs

[distant bough]

Been trying to clear H10-1 with this but it's really not working 💀

Feel like I'm missing smt, bottom and top lane keep leaking

[civic bear]

Can you open

kaltsit handles bottom lane, mountain +1 top middle 2 medic+hoshi or smth.

[crude oak]

S2 and S3 for Shu?

[narrow pendant]

S3 only

[crude oak]

Hmmm, I thought I planned another skill to M3

[narrow pendant]

S2 heals too, but with s3 +25% atk and aspd, it heals just as good if not better than s2

[civic bear]

S1 and s3 if you want

[narrow pendant]

Shu is S3 only really, if you care, ig s1m3 like saria for afk or something

[crude oak]

Gotcha, I thought there was a niche skill that was good with her

Kind of like Ines S3, which I really still don't use

[spark sinew]

yeah just m3

alao don't trust new players like fredi!

[narrow pendant]

I honestly dont see any worth or point to m3 skills that are niche and only useful in certain strats

just use a diff one

[narrow pendant]

Nuh-uh

[spark sinew]

i tried to tell him he isn't one but he had plenty pf arguments that he is

fuming and telling me he is

[narrow pendant]

I did no such thing

Hau is spreading lies and slander

Oh wait

I cant read

[turbid badge]

[crude oak]

M3 for Shu it is

Then she can sit in TR until the next big update

[spark sinew]

are you skipping asca

[narrow pendant]

No

Are u hau?

[glass monolith]

51/50 on standard banner pity, look me lose 100 pulls to get Asca

[spark sinew]

I'm not, probably
just surprised that new player doesn't

[narrow pendant]

Im just saying, i probably will

[distant bough]

By borrowing a Texalter yeah (late answer I know mb)

[spark sinew]

is horn1 really the skill to use there?

[distant bough]

Idk I thought I'd need constant damage for top lane but it didn't work and ended up leaking

But I think my strategy was overall bad

But I got kinda fed up of trying that stage so instead I did some IS3

[civic bear]

toplane prob requires the least op

only 3 types of enemy , the leech, caster, and cars

easily dies to phys

set up ur medic in a way that it can heal middle+ one of the other lane

probably bottom

bottom enemies are more troublesome so

i guess kaltsit top is better

[turbid badge]

oh really? whats your plans

[spark sinew]

you literally quoted the message with my plans

[turbid badge]

well why pull

[spark sinew]

ambushers are too good

and ascalon feels overtuned

[turbid badge]

[mighty pagoda]

its w event on en

[distant bough]

Oh wait

Ok now I understand

When you said w event I thought you meant the rerun was a w

[mighty pagoda]

i actually played back then but didnt bother to finish the ex stages

[urban gull]

my froend said poncirius is the best e2 outta every1 here is that true

[mighty pagoda]

do people even use her

[urban gull]

idk he said shes best girl

[mighty pagoda]

who else you got

[urban gull]

he also said kafka e2 is clutch

this is all

[mighty pagoda]

pretty sure no one uses kafka

[urban gull]

she been useful for me so my tanks can heal while fighting a boss

[mighty pagoda]

Cantabile pretty useful if you dont have ines

[urban gull]

idk the meta tho

[urban gull]

yea i heard cantabile is rly good

but that u dont need to e2 her because she just used for dp

[mighty pagoda]

another option is use it on amiya to not waste mats on her

because you need to e2 her for story anyway

[urban gull]

interesting it seems like ill do that then cus shes best girl too

[mighty pagoda]

i would use it on cantabile tho

[urban gull]

[mighty pagoda]

i dont have any agent tho

[urban gull]

ima do amiya then e2 cantabile afterwards i just looked it up she might still be good for damage in e2 besides getting dp

[mighty pagoda]

ye agents are actually good at both damage and dp

pretty good class

[urban gull]

oh sweet w

she got a good e2 art too

[mighty pagoda]

yep

[spark sinew]

kafka e2 is horrible

if you just need to use it, amiya e2 is a must for later on, so just do her

[mighty pagoda]

its not exactly a must, i didnt e2 mine

but ye its required to progress a story

[spark sinew]

oh yeah

i mean she's a must to unlock shit

also i think CE is tied to her as well

[mighty pagoda]

ce?

oh you mean ch14

ye probably

[novel parrot]

I just got Suzuran on the last days, what should I do? S2M3 or S3M3? And which module is better?

[foggy grove]

s3m3

no mod

[novel parrot]

I looked at Wiki and 40% Fragile os really usefull, and her module might be good to help charging her skill. Thank you

[foggy grove]

her module actually doesn't help her much

[spark sinew]

you also will often hold the skill, so it will overcharge anyway

[novel parrot]

Ah

Yeah, I'm in need of mats rn, i'll hold myself

[nocturne cove]

that was helpful4

[nocturne cove]

dayum

i regret not being there when her baanner was released

😭

[polar zodiac]

well she aint limited so its not the end of the world

[narrow pendant]

I saw people that skipped degem to pull ray, get degen on ray banner instead

She'll spook u somwday

[latent monolith]

degen will also rerun altho no guarantees of her being worth pulling by then

[narrow pendant]

Degen is on the ascalon penance quibai JO

[mighty pagoda]

Just borrow, I don't have her too

[delicate flare]

Hello pepes, i have a question only a true IS stan would know the answer to.

For faming difficulty 6 (which gets you the 2 extra shop items) i use that to enjoy my runs, and i always pick support squad (20 oroginium + 2 hope).

I'm sick of using the reed starter, i want a starter that costs the least amount of hope (5 star, 4 star starter) is there a character that exists for this?

[vivid rain]

Which IS is this, also shouldnt you be farming at d10 or som

[mighty pagoda]

d6 is max for points in is3

[vivid rain]

Yeah but extra shop item should be IS4 exclusive iirc

[mighty pagoda]

oh its d7 tho

if you farm d6 in is4 you can as well farm d5 and get -1 cost

[vivid rain]

Also reed starter is a IS4 thing since is3 loves cucking art damage

[narrow pendant]

[cinder walrus]

How do i recruit castle

[narrow pendant]

Robot tag+guard/melee

[glass monolith]

And then slap table when robot tag cross out, again

[narrow pendant]

Robot tags are supposed to be rare as hell

And yet i got 3 in a single month but only 1 senior is 3 months and no top op

Bs i call

[glass monolith]

Rare af (not as rare as Top Tag and Senior tag don't exist don't @ me) and when it happens there is god damn 4* or 5* combo 80% of times

[cinder walrus]

What about recruit with normal tags

If i do normal tag how many hour i need to put it in?

[narrow pendant]

You dont

[latent monolith]

Forget it basically

You'll get 2 stars

[narrow pendant]

You only get a robot with the robot tag

I never ever saw someone get a robot otherwise

So

[cinder walrus]

Man

[odd forge]

wait robot are rare?!?!

[narrow pendant]

Yeah they are

[odd forge]

shit

[narrow pendant]

As if not rarer than senior tag

[odd forge]

i just skip them many times

or not choose robot

[narrow pendant]

L brother

[narrow pendant]

Why tf is it on 1x but the vid itself is sped up

[odd forge]

MB is too big

[tawdry path]

I've gotten like 5 tops ops and 1 senior ops but no robot tags

[cinder walrus]

Here i am still keep failing episode 2 challenge stage with my e1 team

[odd forge]

ganbare doktah

[jovial basalt]

Robots are the best, especially justice knight-sama. I never use them tho, they're just cute

[jovial basalt]

I've gotten justice knight and lancer using normal

Lancet

[jovial basalt]

Sensei, the free recruitments are ending soon

[odd forge]

im out of luck~

[latent anvil]

When I misclick 1 hr I got

[turbid badge]

rosmonjtis?

[marble parrot]

U can get robots without the tag

[narrow pendant]

Good luck with that

[marble parrot]

Thats how I got a majority of my robot pots

[turbid badge]

why though

it feels more fun to aim for 5* than 1* but whatever i guess, i have been getting random 5* spooks from regular tags recently that could contribute to this thought but yea

1* dupes just suck

hate having og robots all maxed pot getting the new ones suck

[glass monolith]

Why man climb tallest mountain - Because it was there

[jovial basalt]

Okay so, I whaled for iroha bc I mathed wrong, saw I had 4 random tickets laying around. Rolled on makoto, got makoto. Mind blown

Also got Hina and hifumi earlier

[jovial basalt]

Bc robots

Don't disrespect justice knight-sama

[odd forge]

demn lucky, i cant get both

[cobalt peak]

i need help 5-3

[odd forge]

whats ur operators

[mighty pagoda]

borrow mudrock to defend right solo

or borrow executor alter

[proven garnet]

can I get some general advice for OF-EX6 before I try it?

(Second side story)

Cuz I’m underleveled a bit and the map looks odd

Can’t really see where I want to put roadblocks

Maybe it makes more sense once I see the spawn patterns? Idk

[vivid rain]

Oh that map

Uh even after clearing it i still dont think the map make any sense

Just dont place road block around the lava spot since those can destroy the roadblock

[cobalt peak]

sifnidnf slrrr i'm in class rn

here ya go

[mighty pagoda]

oh you have executor alter yourself, he will die without module probably tho

you can put someone to bait casters and he can solo left box

you can borrow mudrock and make gigachad 2 ops clear

[cobalt peak]

which one to bait casters

[mighty pagoda]

just anyone, you can use saria

[split cloak]

They will earn trust hustling by chilling here right?

[mighty pagoda]

yes

[remote perch]

yes, aslong they're deployed somewhere in the base, they will get trust

[split cloak]

Noice tnx

[odd forge]

demn you have good operators

[turbid badge]

Why they not in the 5 sloot

[split cloak]

Cuz they are?

[gaunt seal]

Is Ascalon good in future long gamemodes like RA? I am thinking of pulling for her.
https://krooster.com/u/Yujiko
This is my current roster

[narrow pendant]

Ascalon is great yes
The question is if you can spare the pulls since she is squished between a limited, collab and the another limited

[gaunt seal]

My actual aim was to have 1-2 operators for long battle crowd control, will Ethan and other operators be enough?

[narrow pendant]

Ascalon is more dmg and slow

Ethan is bind

[weak gazelle]

if that your goal
ascalon great, really great in fact

mostima & ascalon and you good to go for CC need in RA

[cobalt peak]

yet idk how to use em

[odd forge]

hmmm im still newbie, but i will try do my best
executor is boss killer (not really) also he can one shot these small guy and big guy with shield in early stages #arknights message look at my gameplay 5-3

[cobalt peak]

i already beat it but tysmmm

[odd forge]

oh okay

[twilit ferry]

@smoky halo ok I definitely did something wrong the last time, should I place saria on the bottom most lane?

[remote perch]

what happened to the NG cages
why are they already used

[twilit ferry]

used it for those 2 drones at the beginning

[sullen rover]

why?

ng with mlynar can kill them

redeploy them later

[remote perch]

save them for the fireball
why are u wasting them at the start

[smoky halo]

oh wait do u have mizuki

or ethan

or an ambusher built

[twilit ferry]

no, thats why I kept borrowing yours

[twilit ferry]

none at all

[smoky halo]

unfortunate

[twilit ferry]

I thought mlynar can block the fireballs angjangaedva

[smoky halo]

he can

[opaque kraken]

he literally got dmg by tbe fireball

[remote perch]

fireball explode in contact, not block

[opaque kraken]

i was wondering why did u even remove uim there

[twilit ferry]

I didnt see i was too panicked

[smoky halo]

😭

[twilit ferry]

I panicked cuz I saw the fireball go past him

[opaque kraken]

and ye don't use ng cage on drones loll

[twilit ferry]

that's her only firewave right? no more on the 2nd phase ending or something surprising like that

[opaque kraken]

Yes

[remote perch]

ofc there is

[twilit ferry]

[remote perch]

this is the same tulula you encounter before
she has 2 fireball

[opaque kraken]

oh wait lol, there's 2 waves for it

[glass monolith]

Phase change firewave, death firewave

All "enemies" belong to wave 1 so there is no additional threats
ALL CIVILIANS spawn at all times

[twilit ferry]

ok so my notes are, use ng cages on firewave, mlynar the drones at the start

hmm what else

[drowsy jewel]

redep NG for second wave

ya got 3 medics anyways

just watch out for the crystals

cuz they gonna kill civvies

[twilit ferry]

does manticore count as built

[smoky halo]

idk u can try

[remote perch]

im assuming absusher is to tank

[smoky halo]

they have 35 res and 50% dodge

[twilit ferry]

my sanity

[smoky halo]

so tanking fireball isfire

[brave sun]

u need to deploy lee earlier

also ur blaze and hoederer are defending air and eating free fireballs

[twilit ferry]

[twilit ferry]

so do I retreat them during firewave?

[smoky halo]

how did ng die

[twilit ferry]

talulah slashed her

and eyja

[polar zodiac]

you dont want them eating fireballs cuz it stresses your healer alot more and since there are no civs in the middle its kinda pointless

[smoky halo]

😭

[obtuse cypress]

Here is a tip : Ling

[smoky halo]

?

what

aint no way borrowing ling is the zolution

[obtuse cypress]

Ling solve every problem

Atleast to me

[twilit ferry]

can ling dragons even tank firewave

[brave sun]

ur blaze could be tanking the firewave instead in a pinch

[obtuse cypress]

U get 60% def upon skill and dragon pretty.much spamable

[delicate flare]

I don't remember the small dragons being able to

[obtuse cypress]

From chapter 1-chapter 11

All i need, was Ling

[smoky halo]

more like u dont have enough deploy slots

[obtuse cypress]

[polar zodiac]

firestorm is arts damage tho

[obtuse cypress]

Oh erm

[polar zodiac]

what was talulah storm damage anyway, 2500 per fireball?

or just 2k

[obtuse cypress]

You know what

Just drop texalter

[delicate flare]

Wouldn't gravel works better

[polar zodiac]

gravel is nice for tanking yea

[twilit ferry]

so I replace manti for gravel?

[obtuse cypress]

Eyja the healer work also

[smoky halo]

😭

what is this

[obtuse cypress]

Top tier advice in 2022

[smoky halo]

hes literally using eyja already

[polar zodiac]

hmm I never tested manticore but she should be better?

[smoky halo]

if u dont need frd

yes

[obtuse cypress]

How did she even die

[polar zodiac]

gravel is nice in a pinch, she can eat like 3 fireballs or smt

[obtuse cypress]

What did bro do

[twilit ferry]

talulah sliced her

[twilit ferry]

at e1? damn

[obtuse cypress]

Nah only 2, even full upgraded s2

If only her health was a bit bigger

[smoky halo]

[brave sun]

are you up for borrowing?

[iron fractal]

They are borrowing ng

[twilit ferry]

I am borrowing ng already

[obtuse cypress]

Sutr require 42 points

[brave sun]

ah right

[obtuse cypress]

What did bro do

[polar zodiac]

my gravel is E1 max level and she has already 4200 effective hp

[iron fractal]

Wait if ng dies to her slice then block talulah further away from ng?

[mighty pagoda]

full e2 max level squad

[opaque kraken]

There's FRD to bait lol

[twilit ferry]

the skill issue is strong in this one

[polar zodiac]

you probably want to retreat and redeploy NG between storms hmm

[iron fractal]

I placed saria 2 blocks infront of ur saria and blocked talulah there

[obtuse cypress]

Skill matter

Idk how u have 4 healer

[iron fractal]

This should eliminate the issue of ng dying, all thats left is blocking fireballs to let civilians survive

[obtuse cypress]

You know what, let em die, no one innocent in war anyway

[gaunt seal]

If I do not have Ascalon, will Shu be sufficient in the future?

[obtuse cypress]

Just 1 tho

[narrow pendant]

Doesnt count, what are u yapping about

[twilit ferry]

the first firewave is done

[iron fractal]

Goodluck

[twilit ferry]

do I retreat ng now

[polar zodiac]

if you dont retreat her you will have to stall talulah

[glass monolith]

No silverash? might as well wait out that stupid skill cd

[iron fractal]

Ye i stalled her instead of redeploying

[smoky halo]

yes

[twilit ferry]

ok I will just stall, man im nervous lmao

[smoky halo]

i mean

up to you

side note do u have bassline built

[polar zodiac]

if you are confident you can stall and keep rotating frd to bait her bs, you can go with that, its fine

[twilit ferry]

no

[twilit ferry]

what the interval of that

[smoky halo]

20s

[smoky halo]

male simp without male built wtfart

[remote perch]

you should probably not use Eyja s3 in the same time as NG s3, just wasteful of skill when NG and Lumen can heal enough

just save ur Eyja s3 when u retreat NG so she gets more cage for the 2nd wave of fireball later

[vivid rain]

truly one of the frauds of all time

[iron fractal]

O ye ig redeploying ng is better cos cage lols

[twilit ferry]

how long do I stall her

[iron fractal]

until ng s3 is up

[smoky halo]

120s

[opaque kraken]

If you're going to redeploy ng you don't even need to wait 120 seconds since it'll take half the time cuz her skill will be up by the time when she's redeploy lol

[twilit ferry]

ok her skill is up what now

[iron fractal]

kill her and rmb to use ng s3 and block fireballs ig

so same shit as first fireball wave

[polar zodiac]

now you kill talulah and tank the second firestorm with NG skill and meatshields

and then you win

[twilit ferry]

OMG THANK YOU PROS

[smoky halo]

ggs

[iron fractal]

wp lil bro

[twilit ferry]

all of this work for 1op lmaoo

[spark sinew]

people would do everything but use scene

[polar zodiac]

[glass monolith]

Relateable

[remote perch]

thank god H has no CM

[smoky halo]

dalao do my h8-4

[twilit ferry]

I literally dont have Scene lmao

[remote perch]

now do H12-4

feel the true hell

[spark sinew]

you seemed like a fairly old player to me, weird

[twilit ferry]

funny you mentioned that

[remote perch]

he is

[twilit ferry]

me and fib started around the same time

[remote perch]

have fun
you will need it

literally the hardest story stage

[spark sinew]

fib is old player!

[iron fractal]

i was stuck on h12-4 for afew hours
have fun

[twilit ferry]

that's why fib is true pro dalao

[smoky halo]

wtf no

i think i got stuck on h12-4 for 3 days

gave up and just borrowed eyja

[remote perch]

smh

[iron fractal]

medic or caster

[remote perch]

skill issues

[smoky halo]

medic

won within like 3 attempts after borrowing eyja this shits too strong

[twilit ferry]

wow if you took 3 days what about me, taking a whole month to even finish 12-20

[smoky halo]

its ok u have eyja

ur fine

[twilit ferry]

"3 attempts"

[remote perch]

tf

[iron fractal]

[remote perch]

[smoky halo]

exec

[iron fractal]

tf

[keen flicker]

what was h12-4 again

[smoky halo]

i tried to phase skip

[twilit ferry]

damatzi cluster

[smoky halo]

exec surtr to dps boss ya

[keen flicker]

oh

[opaque kraken]

many dalaos here

[twilit ferry]

wow I have both, surely I won't struggle there right

[iron fractal]

dalao fr

[smoky halo]

use mly over surtr

[iron fractal]

just use both

[lapis hornet]

how many dalaos

[twilit ferry]

ok but first I need to beat 12-20 to h12-3

[smoky halo]

did you know that bison and cuora and tank h12-4 medicless

[lapis hornet]

i only see eco friendly wood veneer

[iron fractal]

wait he has eben maybe eben can nuke faster

[smoky halo]

!!!

[twilit ferry]

fr fr

[smoky halo]

how do i escape the dalao allegations

[iron fractal]

u cant

[twilit ferry]

just accept it

[smoky halo]

😭 i lost to emer strangers so i humbly reject the title

[lapis hornet]

no one has 100% wr in is

[iron fractal]

frfr

[glass monolith]

house always wins

[smoky halo]

nah that stage was winnable i just threw

[iron fractal]

which stage is strangers

[twilit ferry]

so you lost on purpose just so you can reject the pro title

[lapis hornet]

everyone throws in is

[smoky halo]

drone and trees

is4

[smoky halo]

no sir im just bad

[sullen rover]

true

[drowsy jewel]

im a god at inting in IS runs

[weak gazelle]

huh? well if pick shu then its another good choice
there is nothing bad or flaw with her kit

[gaunt seal]

I am currently thinking I might be underprepared when RA arrives

[foggy grove]

you are thinking too much

[weak gazelle]

yeah, take it easy and not worry too much
RA is reedic s3 playground
just make sure your device can handle the fps

[glass monolith]

There is probability that global get RA2 with baby mode already included while CN added it later

[summer copper]

[glass wedge]

Can someone give a tiny hint on how to beat 7-16

[gaunt seal]

What is your roster?

[glass wedge]

Outdated ss

[mighty pagoda]

borrow executor alter he soloes left box

[glass wedge]

But elys is level 35
Blaze is 45
Mountain is 80

[polar zodiac]

iirc 7-16 was about having some aoe healing, putting some1 on the right and then baiting the rockets with a defender or smt?

I havent looked at the stage in a good while

[mighty pagoda]

this is enough tbh

sideroca dies on right lane so you will need some more units

if you time executor alter skill he will solo left

[mighty pagoda]

use mountain on right actually

e2 specter can also work but i assume most people dont e2 specter

[delicate flare]

I think e1 mountain might die without extra supports

I remember that being the case when I first got to this stage

(just give him a healer)

[mighty pagoda]

snipers will kill healer probably

but you can use some more units anyway to kill stuff

[foggy grove]

if he is borrowing might as well just ling it

[mighty pagoda]

ling cant kill flag guys so they will buff artillery and they will kill everyone

[foggy grove]

what

ling dragon is literal definition of stat stick

[mighty pagoda]

i could try but i closed the game so some other time

[foggy grove]

it's pretty brain dead

[mighty pagoda]

welp, they could do that too i guess

[odd forge]

mylar no?

this is what im cooking heh

[mighty pagoda]

pretty sure he has none of this ops

[odd forge]

neat

[cedar latch]

Is there an easy way to kill Mandragora in 9-19?

[polar zodiac]

use the pillars

[cedar latch]

The problem is getting past the first phase. Who can tank her with minimal healers? I tried with hoshi but she can't do it with my 2 healers

[cyan gorge]

Someone with high hp/res fares better

Guardmiya or any medic defender would be ideal

[narrow pendant]

Guardmiya is kinda made for it, her 20 res and 60% arts dodge on s1 is perfect for it

[polar zodiac]

I dont remember her first phase hitting particularly hard anyway

[narrow pendant]

But then again, just cuz youre on ch9 doesnt mean u have her

[cedar latch]

Yeah I don't have a support who has her

[narrow pendant]

Well, no suprise

[polar zodiac]

just take a beefy saria or smt

[narrow pendant]

Beat JT8-2 and you get her

[cedar latch]

Is that part of ch 8?

[polar zodiac]

ye

[narrow pendant]

2nd to last stage yes

And quite hard too

[cyan gorge]

It would be faster to just borrow a Saria

[narrow pendant]

Mhm

[cedar latch]

Any of you have one of those and are willing to friend request me?

[polar zodiac]

mine isnt really that good. also you get enough time to set a healer so just do that to make it easy

[cyan gorge]

Who are the medics you’re using?

[cedar latch]

No one great just ansel and silence

[polar zodiac]

ansel and saria seem to be doing ok. my saria aint maxed although she has mod1 (the death tile above is me trying gummy xD)

[fathom pollen]

is the not taking damage from sarkaz collectible in IS2 good

[cyan gorge]

Pretty much makes a couple f4 and 5 maps completely free

[wintry hinge]

Doesnt Mandragora stun operators?

[mighty pagoda]

slows attack speed with ray attack

[polar zodiac]

no

[wintry hinge]

Which ops can I replace Blaze to the top line
I dont have Blaze nor Executor altet

[lapis hornet]

tried mountain?

gavial idk

[somber stone]

Mizuki?

[restive valley]

I really want to cry... I didn't know that Totter can attack invisible enemies... I could have a more easier time clearing the new annihilation

[glass wedge]

Dw I beat it
I borrowed Tex Alt but the difficulty in the timings i need for my silence to get drones to heal mountain in the right side is what gets me

[finite trench]

for the little floaty things (the ones that you need to hit a certain ammount of times) in invitation to wine, is there any op/class that just has really high attack speed?

[foggy grove]

dot works better

e0 ethan works wonder

true aoe dot

[finite trench]

ohhh true, thorns does arts dot too right? i can borrow him

[foggy grove]

he is buyable from red shop

ethan

[finite trench]

ik ik i just mean to cover a diff area or somn

[foggy grove]

sure

[finite trench]

👍 ty

[odd forge]

hmmm im cooking
