[true mango]

Would you say thorns is the best laner that can also kill air?

I guess it's degen

[smoky halo]

isnt he the only one

[true mango]

Atleast he still has a niche i think I might only get module 1 for him

[full terrace]

If you have Ela there is no need to raise Thorns. She has the same attack range as him, hits harder, has lower DP cost, faster skill activation, and also the "unlimited duration" as long as she still has ammo.

By the time her ammo runs out you'd have enough DP to deploy everyone

[true mango]

Ugh I do have ela

I'm running chongyue and stainless and was thinking to just pop thorns in since the charging would be effortless either way

Anyone else work good with stainless s3?

[nocturne cove]

I've been saying this that ulpi is good in is

But is station doesn't agree

[jovial nest]

let them do their own thing then

[opaque bridge]

since I passed normal, I should be able to pass CM...?

[nocturne cove]

Wait ex stages are open..dang

[slender terrace]

if i were you id borrow logos… he can solo right side

oh wait nvm chalter can do the same as well

[opaque bridge]

oh lol so I just focus fire on the left?

[slender terrace]

wisadel is more than enough for left side

and a few defenders and medic to stall for wis skill

[opaque bridge]

I just got her mod

[slender terrace]

i mean you can always try first, if not enough damage then add more dps

if chalter is able to clear right side solo then you can just borrow another burst like mlynar instead

then you can cycle between their skills

[ripe girder]

Game: "You cannot deploy operators in one tile"
Me: "Is this tile important for my defence?"
Game: "..."
Me: "IS THIS TILE IMPORTANT FOR MY DEFENCE?"
Game: "Well yes, but technically no"

Sadly i didn't screenshoted it how i passed it

[opaque bridge]

oh that stage is piss easy even with the tileban imo

[ripe girder]

I use only Ægir ops for this event. No other ops is allowed

So i can't take Typhon or Schwarz or someone else op for this event. There all banned

[opaque bridge]

mmyes challenge max

[vocal leaf]

when are they going to give maleknights a puller, in some stages i wish i had one

it’s funny that the closest we have to that is ulpi and he’s a guard

[foggy grove]

puller is just suckier reverse pusher ril

[vocal leaf]

i mean for situations like this, pulling the mobs instead of waiting them to break the wall, i guess it’s also my problem for trust farming ex stages

[opaque bridge]

that map was a bit tricky for me
I had to borrow a healer instead of the usual texalt

[ripe girder]

I did different tactic here. Abyssal Hunters except Skadi was on top and when there were getting stunned by running flower Highmore was near base to defend it cause she can restore herself up. Rangers with Skadi defended down.

And for healing hunters i was using Purestream cause her S2 heals way faster than Whisperain's S2. Literally a quick fix from TF2

[rocky kelp]

rare footage of the medic with the highest hps in the game 👍

well if the is ignored anyway

[celest bluff]

kaltsit win, straight up

[proud temple]

how do i counter wraith leaders in outskirts...

[smoky halo]

do more dmg
cc them
or shift them

[proud temple]

how many of them are in outskirts

is there more past 350

[smoky halo]

i dont remember

u can check enemy count and pathing in
map.ark-nights.com

[somber falcon]

how are you failing anni 2 with full e2 team? 🤨

[full terrace]

@pure orchid my alt got Suzu 😭

[smoky halo]

oh he has full e2 team

[civic bear]

isnt outskirts anni2

[proud temple]

i dont have full e2 vro

1 e2 and all e1

[civic bear]

no more wraith after 350

its all avenger/caster/butcher

[proud temple]

okay awesum

[smoky halo]

yes

[civic bear]

theres also barely any enemies from bottom lane

its like one wave or smth

[proud temple]

which bottom lane

[smoky halo]

bot left

or bot middle

idk how to explain

[proud temple]

if it's bottom middle im using rope for that

[somber falcon]

❓
#arknights message

[smoky halo]

LMAO

[proud temple]

Oh that's my main

This is what im working with rn

[hazy sinew]

gg

[proud temple]

goldenglow

[pure orchid]

Literally 😭

[civic bear]

Bottom right

[proud temple]

oh yea im using rope for that one

[civic bear]

Last waves there are avenger tho

[proud temple]

i have teq

i'll be fine

trust

[civic bear]

No as in there are avenger going bottom right

Not sure if rope pulls them

[proud temple]

rope can pull

she's sl4

[narrow pendant]

Hubby, i got a hater

[civic bear]

Sl4 is force 1

[narrow pendant]

💀

[civic bear]

Force 1 vs weight 2

-1

[proud temple]

it's moderately tho

[civic bear]

Yes moderately is force 1

[proud temple]

but she can still pull

[civic bear]

Most enemies yes

I'm specificly talking this specific wave has avenger

[proud temple]

yeah she pulled the avenger

[civic bear]

Oh then that's fine

[proud temple]

ggs

[spark sinew]

huh, what was the support

[proud temple]

are you talking to me?

i didnt use any supports

[stiff beacon]

how do you start 5-3 with all the casters?

can anyone only give me a hint?

[spark sinew]

figured out you would want clear anni3 as well

[stiff beacon]

damn you can kill those nvg guys fast enough?

[proud temple]

i dont have that many ops built

[spark sinew]

ig using tickets on anni2 and clearing anni3 with sup is a good idea

[proud temple]

tequila w/ overcharge kills them

[stiff beacon]

ohhhh

[proud temple]

oh i think i can clear with e1 max ops

[spark sinew]

roster looks enough for anni3... i think?
maybe an aoe medic needed but i'm clueless about thresholds nowadays

and like support typhon

[proud temple]

yeah im definitely set for anni 3

i have silverash and ifrit left unbuilt lel

[stiff beacon]

you have my respects for not watching guides on anni

[proud temple]

well i am on an alt

[spark sinew]

better get to clearing it

go get that higher cap!

[proud temple]

im farming event

[civic bear]

i assume cm

[spark sinew]

start by directly addressing the problem

[proud temple]

you can use cantabile s1

[civic bear]

kill the caster slowly one by 1

the stage is even designed around you holding first bottom right, then top right, then left sides

[proud temple]

hibiscus and ansel are enough for healing

[civic bear]

using helidrop op would be ideal

[spark sinew]

less talk, more action!
show me that completed 400 clear

[stiff beacon]

just normal, i always have slight issues starting a stage

[civic bear]

whats ur squad currently

any op that can use their skill instantly/fast?

[stiff beacon]

helidrop?

[civic bear]

ye

[stiff beacon]

too expensive for the rush though

[civic bear]

not if

you dont force

a vanguard

mobs spawn at like 25 dp. so it would only reach close to blue box at 30 dp

[stiff beacon]

oh i haven't tried that

[spark sinew]

force a charger, superior vang breed

[civic bear]

its the classic newbie mistake

dogrush, forces 3 vanguard thinking it'd help

[narrow pendant]

Omw to build grani

[civic bear]

said 3 vanguards dies to dog anyway 😭

[spark sinew]

even grani works

[civic bear]

even on cm?

caster huge range

[stiff beacon]

my starter is usually ely + sniper

[spark sinew]

chargers are basically free to deploy

[civic bear]

well yeah they are

[spark sinew]

no i mean like
you deploy grani, even if she does nothing (she will likely damage some shit) you just undeploy her

[civic bear]

opening with defender just better tho

[stiff beacon]

i absolutely got destroyed because there are no safe spots

[spark sinew]

and your map isn't fucked

[proud temple]

but im still farming event

4/6 rn

trust

[stiff beacon]

damn vigna did like only 35% of the red caster's hp

[civic bear]

on nm technically there are safe tile

3 tiles left/right of casters

you got any e2s right

[stiff beacon]

oh wait helidropping lessing works

[scarlet mortar]

borrowing surtr or ya2 will vaporize the problem

[civic bear]

any helidrop works

[spark sinew]

go old school and borrow chen/skadi !

[civic bear]

e1 1 utage kills a caster afterall

[spark sinew]

remember the hella3 clears

[stiff beacon]

isn't that in the way of the runners?

[scarlet mortar]

you want to kill them

[civic bear]

yeah and? you block and kill them

[scarlet mortar]

might as well block them

[civic bear]

caster not hitting

runners are blockable they arent wraiths

[scarlet mortar]

i had vigna poking them back then

[stiff beacon]

damn i might actually need to bring kal tsit because i have skill issue

[proud temple]

whats ur roster

[opaque bridge]

For the H stage version do I use the same dualtank heal strategy, or do I carry on with something different?

I tested out the dual healing tank and they only work until like the enemies go from the different path(in white)

bird is already defeated by then

[scarlet mortar]

where's wis at that point

[tawdry path]

faust would hurt alot so get ng

[opaque bridge]

i used shu until the other guys went in from the right lane

they leaked

[tawdry path]

oh you leaked?

[scarlet mortar]

try this tile instead

[tawdry path]

hm

[scarlet mortar]

there's a wis solo iirc

[tawdry path]

wisadel right next to the blue box yeah

should work

[opaque bridge]

so I just use shu again

[scarlet mortar]

kekw

[tawdry path]

real

[stiff beacon]

oh nice i just needed to spawn camp those casters

[tawdry path]

yup its that straightforward

[opaque bridge]

Nice… Just in time to redeploy too

[pure orchid]

Where

Let me at em

Ill approach them and beat their ass

[proud temple]

hm

[stiff beacon]

holy damn he actually survives

i can't believe it

[proven shore]

Ulpi carries on the steam knight stage damn

[near folio]

S2 up with Gladiia and Warf S1 should be able to just sustain against it

[spark sinew]

s3 duos the h4 stage

[glass monolith]

Good because we will fight Steam Trash can in future event because HG run out of boss ideas

[near folio]

With how many unique events they keep churning out its not a surprise

I think Harold will stay as the hardest event boss for a while

But Cliff seems like more of a statstick than Harold

[civic bear]

Harold hitting very slow makes it too easy to cheese

He's hard solely if you try to facetank everything

Oh he also moves like a snail

[glass monolith]

"Sorry I casted turn off oven during invulnerability from health gate, get fucked"

[near folio]

Even then that final wave with the exploding guys coinciding near his snowstorm in ex-8 cm is pretty threatening

[remote perch]

Harold is only hard if you try to Speedrun him cuz of his retaliation and frequently invul, he's really easy if you actually just take it slowly

[near folio]

They punish slow runs with that last wave

You have to hit both Harold and the boomers

[glass monolith]

I can infinite stall Harold but setting everything while not fucking up with Ovens is not on my to do list

[scarlet mortar]

the defknights duo which stalls for 15m:

[remote perch]

Can't you just bait those

[near folio]

Had a pretty cool setup to keep the ovens alive for most of p2

But yeah any boss that made me use Silence Alter I would say is hard, and Cliff and Harold are the only ones I had to do it for

[civic bear]

Ehh

I mean you could stall the boss with like 2 operators

[proud temple]

i got 384/400

[civic bear]

The the rest just deals with the right side

The mobs on that map are just usual ex stage tier

[near folio]

This was quite a close call

[near folio]

Still requires some real brick walls built doesnt it?

Like you cant just drop a Saria and expect her to tank a hit from Harold P2

[opaque bridge]

i mean… it is victoria after all

[opaque bridge]

wait its in intermezzi now?

[civic bear]

No

You spam frd

[near folio]

This was its first run

[civic bear]

The boss is slow and attack slow

So you just slam body and it just stuck

[near folio]

So S1 phantom and Gravel spam

[civic bear]

I mean not even those

Beanstalk gravel

[near folio]

I see, Beanstalk

[civic bear]

Verdant gravel

[near folio]

We didnt have Verdant did we?

[civic bear]

They don't even need lvl technically

Isn't verdant release that event

[glass monolith]

#strategy message nah I'd Quartz no vent ex-8 cm

[civic bear]

Or atleast one event before

[near folio]

Crushers do be good against those def reduction stacks

No defense to reduce in the first place

[spark sinew]

get better

[proud temple]

wtf

bottom lane sucks

[glass monolith]

Funniest part of Cliff was need to use status resist to stall phase 1 because he start moving twice as fast with same stun duration

[near folio]

I used a frd to trap him on the same tile

[opaque bridge]

Consumes 100 HP-

[jovial nest]

this map was pretty fun

actual mazemaking

[remote perch]

i mean its just funneling

[jovial nest]

thats maze in a nutshell

funneling is one thing

mazes are built as funneling+lengthening the route

[vocal leaf]

what you guys mean with funneling? no one is entering here

[wary imp]

mid squad?

[vernal lion]

new tutorial stages after update,
remember to do them

[spark sinew]

are those different from the ones in menu

[vernal lion]

yes

[pure orchid]

what the

free stuff!!!

[sly drift]

Can't use Wisadel. Completely unwinnable.

[dry pelican]

bad squad, kill jessica hibicus hung

[wary imp]

ok

any tips for SK-3?

[pure orchid]

use slowers, have better placement

gitano is wasted there

and more aoe

[wary imp]

i dont think i have a slow operator

[pure orchid]

Everyone has orchid

[cedar hound]

Orchid

[wary imp]

btw farming XP for upgrading other guys

[pure orchid]

blaze e1 is nice here

lappland e2 just rotting away

[vernal lion]

yeet all the physical dmg away from those SK stages,
it's all heavy armor, physical dmg is useless for you

[wary imp]

hmm.

[vernal lion]

just use arts dmg

[wary imp]

should i bring a def too?

else they just waltz in

[vernal lion]

yes

high def is better

[wary imp]

aight

[opaque bridge]

This should be easy… right? the old nightingale strat?

[wary imp]

uhh
excuse me but whats nightingtale strat?

[civic bear]

its same but you need to cover 4 lanes here

cuz civilians exist

[opaque bridge]

oh lord this will be tricky

[civic bear]

you need to prevent civilians from dying

if you borrow NG mod1

she can cover 3 lanes

then cage covers one

[scarlet mortar]

cmiiw but don't you have logos

or was that someone else

[civic bear]

diff guy

this isnt the guy that brute force

[dry pelican]

just strategy that use nightingale

[opaque bridge]

ng mod1 S3M2

still workable?

[scarlet mortar]

oh ik they're different people

[civic bear]

workable

[scarlet mortar]

eh it's fine without logos

[civic bear]

then the next worry is

the boss

[scarlet mortar]

NG carry

[civic bear]

baiting the fire burn

[scarlet mortar]

oh yh you actually can't let backline ranged ops or nobody eat the burn this time

since talulah will just target the civs

/your backline ops, then later explode them and spread burn onto the civs

[civic bear]

have you understood what the boss does yet ?

from playing jt8-3

[opaque bridge]

yeah p much

the two drones though are a problem for me

[civic bear]

wisadel

heck

chalter on the middle

she can target both drone

on that one place

[scarlet mortar]

wis is easy game though

just open with her

drone go bye bye

[civic bear]

doc tachanka fuze is kinda deadweight

[scarlet mortar]

the doc overheal technology....

[civic bear]

cuz there are basicly only 2 lanes

i guess doc is more usable

but fuze tachanka

bringing any frd would be ideal

so you can just keep baiting the burns off civilians

nightingale+saria stalls the boss while other deal dmg

can even remove ceobe too tbf

[wary imp]

this good for sk-3? (the high def guys)

[scarlet mortar]

exu and jess won't be doing much

[civic bear]

quite literally just spam caster

[spark sinew]

is this lapp1

[civic bear]

also yeah lapp2

lead off the usual

vg-casterx3- medic-medic-defender

[wary imp]

lemme check if theres any casters left rq

[civic bear]

even 12f

is good enough honestly

[scarlet mortar]

if it does arts, bring it

[civic bear]

earthspirit is also arts

so technically

[scarlet mortar]

cluel

[wary imp]

ok

[civic bear]

I mean I'm of the believe even slow supp is better than aoe caster

[opaque bridge]

can suzu actually outdps an aoe caster tho (for the memes)

[scarlet mortar]

suzu S2 would win

i belieb

[civic bear]

She would

[glass monolith]

Is damage inflicted from Fragile count?

[civic bear]

Her s2 is like 900 dps

[scarlet mortar]

ok viktorlab

[civic bear]

Wait no

[remote perch]

does suzu even benefits from her own fragile

[civic bear]

How fast does she attack again

Nvm it's just 500 dps

[scarlet mortar]

unless suzu has some weird interaction, she should

[civic bear]

She doesnt

Her fragile applied after

[scarlet mortar]

huhge

[civic bear]

Unfortunately

[remote perch]

yee, i remember people saying she doesn't

[scarlet mortar]

ggs

[wary imp]

still fail
sigh
more casters?

[remote perch]

since it requires sluggish, and she only applies it after she attacks

[scarlet mortar]

does the mod which extends slow duration not make it work

[civic bear]

Nop still

[scarlet mortar]

aintnoway

[civic bear]

Only 500 DPS smh

Losing to passenger s1

[vernal lion]

too bad, she's not
because I've already tested her in Pinch Out

[wary imp]

smh

-# exu just added after my def gone wrong

[vernal lion]

it's almost there

[civic bear]

Ignore sniper

Add more 3 blocks

[vernal lion]

yea, exu is physical dmg

[civic bear]

Literally even lvl 1 3 blockers is ok

Exist solely to just buy time

Also gitano should face down so it can hit those that went past (which definitely exist)

And lava

[opaque bridge]

[civic bear]

Wait wtf is that lava facing down

[wary imp]

mb 💀

[civic bear]

There are a bunch of value ops that is nice to bring for newbie even at level 1

Solely because at worst It can do smth

Defenders are that

[opaque bridge]

mfw E0L1 clears

[civic bear]

Yato (2*) clears

[wary imp]

geez

[scarlet mortar]

vg yato is broken....

[scarlet mortar]

spec when spec ban (2021)

[civic bear]

Bro that Amiya even worse now

Why she facing left

[opaque bridge]

isnt the one facing left gita

nvm

im blind

[vernal lion]

remember, facing left is better

because they can cover both above and middle lane

so more dps

[civic bear]

The bulk of enemy on the left, right, and center of blaze tile

[spice mortar]

hey guys how are you dealing with bp ex 6 top lane? with no 6 stars

[scarlet mortar]

i've always thought that these tiles were very funny

[civic bear]

For vanguards

So they don't die ofc

[opaque bridge]

what was the point of them Lol

[scarlet mortar]

nah zima'd win

[wary imp]

who at d7?

[vernal lion]

cardigan

if you don't have, you just use other defender

[wary imp]

2 defs?

[vernal lion]

yes, 2 defs

[civic bear]

Naturally if (o is low ground, x is high ground, b is blocker)
oooo
xxxo
bbbo
xxxo
oooo
Enemy comes to the right. Most of the enemy would first be blocked at the right of 3rd B, then next would be right of 2nd B (aka left of 3rd B). And the fewest would be at right of 1st B (or left of 2nd B).
So you just need to cover the range to be up to
B[bbo]

[wary imp]

almost there
the last dude somehow survived at ~5%

[civic bear]

As can be seen from nagas pic. None of the caster can target left of cuora because you don't need to since they'd likely get blocked on the right of cuora which would be in range (altho since your level a bit low might need 3rd blocker but the fundamental are the same)

[wary imp]

aight

[vernal lion]

your defenders still died, did they?

[wary imp]

yes...

[civic bear]

Deploy courier to block for a few seconds?

[opaque bridge]

what was the point of this lane if enemies never walk through them...? dp gen?

[civic bear]

Don't play x2 so you can be ready to deploy courier/vigna just to buy time

[wary imp]

ok

[civic bear]

Actually did you even use vigna lol

Bring in any defender no need level

Just for this one

Bandaid gaming

[civic bear]

P much . Or ranged melee

[wary imp]

all set (or is it?)

YESSSSSS

[civic bear]

[vernal lion]

I forgot you have e2 lappland

[wary imp]

yessir

relax time

[opaque bridge]

this is getting on my nerves due to lane management issues... What do I borrow?

[spark sinew]

why are you juggling through every stage but not current event, just curious didn't we just have CW anyway

[opaque bridge]

free op

no i meant

[civic bear]

Where exactly r u struggling

[opaque bridge]

phase 2 when the cars and the lightsabers come

[civic bear]

Oh so not everyone dying right

But more like leaking

[opaque bridge]

no death issues

[civic bear]

Left or right

Left I assume

[opaque bridge]

its just more of struggling to lanehold on both sides

left suffers more

the right at least i can stall for a while

[civic bear]

Right side is 1 lane since you just block between the fences

Ela handles it quite well

(deploy at fence and kills cars

Left side could saria and then bunch of helpers

This is mainly the sabers

You got pusher leveled?

[opaque bridge]

i dont use them

so no

[civic bear]

Actually nah better just play normal on this one

[opaque bridge]

oh wait i forgot shaw

[civic bear]

You could use shaw for the sabers since they take dmg when shifted

But normal play works

Saria then idk. Any DPS chalter or smth

[vernal lion]

except for boss, mobs has 0 weight

[civic bear]

The shielded not a problem since u got wisadel

The balls on cm can oneshots

Either borrow Ng or ines if you wanna cheese

Kinda prefer ines cuz you get to destroy the balls more safely

And cuz it's big map

[opaque bridge]

right.... cus we're "technically" in space

[stiff beacon]

oh damn 5-7 has slug spam

any tips starting this stage?

[nocturne cove]

Uh

Nea spawn

Use vanguard

Maybe charger

And a pioneer or os

Lappland then near blue box can silence don't effect before eventually taking it iut

[stiff beacon]

you want me to use a charger on a slug spam?

[nocturne cove]

They stay there for sometime

Enough time for chargers to deal with them

While pioneer can block

Just improvise on that

[spark sinew]

do you know the core mechanic of chargers

full dp refund on retreat

[stiff beacon]

i found that ethan just solos the slugs

[spark sinew]

i want to say something but i'll be humble and won't

[stiff beacon]

the thing is like that charge is at most going to kill like 2 slugs then retreated or wait there doing nothing

at that point you might as well throw someones else down to charge their skill

[spark sinew]

i mean you shouldn't have enough dp for that someone

that's the premise

[stiff beacon]

mmm although i would rather bring extra casters and snipers so i can clear the freeze drones faster and start setting up before the drones arrives

i guess this just becomes the argument of how much that slot is worth

[novel robin]

is it possible to clear BP-EX-5 CM abyssal hunter only.
Can't promote yet, I'm out of resources
I'm concerned with the netherseabrand

[stiff beacon]

lore gaming?

[lapis hornet]

what's skalter doing there

[novel robin]

healing or buffing andreana for no reason.

[lapis hornet]

to answer your question there's a a gladia ulpi duo but you're missing a lot there so you'll have to figure out something on your own

I meant skalter's not an abyssal hunter she's just an abyssal

[novel robin]

o wait

[novel robin]

forgor

that means I gotta do it all over

[lapis hornet]

should be p doable tho

[novel robin]

I'm going to see if I can get more lmd from other gamemode for gladiia.

[flat sapphire]

Skadi2 is aegir 🤓

[lapis hornet]

I mean gladiia's there also for mod so you're quite a bit away

don't think pressure's that big on that map tho can probs wing it with the other units

wait did e1 glad alr have regen

[novel robin]

1.5%

[flat sapphire]

Weak but ye

[lapis hornet]

oh should be ez then

[flat sapphire]

Less dmg reduction too

[novel robin]

Did it

[lapis hornet]

gg ez

now do it for realz tho

[novel robin]

failed multiple time because of the elemental stun. but then I remember that ulpian refresh it when canceling skill 3

[narrow pendant]

Why are u doing AH only when barely half is even built

[lapis hornet]

bro what let him play like he wants

[narrow pendant]

Im not stopping him

Im just asking

[novel robin]

I don't want to clear events with meta characters except they have relation with the event, so I usually play niche

[stiff beacon]

true gamer

[novel robin]

just happened to have all AH squad so I went with it.

[lapis hornet]

yeah it's fine

ah kinda special niche ngl, like they're v strong but like

there's 6 of them total lmao

[spark sinew]

yeah

i mean when it released chargers were very good pick there

if my memory serves me well

[lapis hornet]

chargers were ok yeah

if memory serves for that map the common suggestion was to borrow eyja s2

but surely there's easier ways now

[stiff beacon]

does kyo not have any low op methods?

[lapis hornet]

why you asking me

[tidal sedge]

Kyo low op method is "borrow Wisadel" now sadly

[stiff beacon]

[lapis hornet]

haven't you been here a while tho why we still on chap5

[stiff beacon]

i was grinding events and there isn't any events recently

[glass monolith]

Because low rarity guides assumes you don't know what you are doing and friend support some overpowered 0 brain needed 6*

[lapis hornet]

guides aren't meant to be impressive clears

they're just meant to get you over the hump in the easiest way possible

using units you probs have or can easily replace

[acoustic slate]

Low rarity guide is meant to be the most fool proof for the most people’s brains and account just to progress. Of course it’s “borrow wisadel”

It would be borderline trolling to make a general low end guide with some niche support unit and cook up some silly strat when Wisadel is available (and easy to find in support)

[stiff beacon]

rip low rarity guide for auto

[narrow pendant]

Not mine supposrt tho

[glass monolith]

Everyone cook their own auto

[narrow pendant]

Mine has 3 males

[ripe willow]

Currently running this team to beat 7-18 and its breaking me rn, what can i do

[lofty stag]

so what exactly is killing you

[ripe willow]

After the boss goes to their second phase, thats when shit hits the fan and things fall apart, the Mortar enemy kills my units and the boss makes sure to make a path for the other enemies to walk to the end

[somber stone]

Spawn kill the mortars

[ripe willow]

Trying to find a way to do that, i just thought using Skadi S2

[lofty stag]

that, or have a tankier op as the natural bait

from what im seing

dmg is not your issue

[ripe willow]

Wis'dael is carrying me for DMG

[lofty stag]

are you also properly baiting patriots spear

[ripe willow]

?

[lofty stag]

in phase 2, patriot will throw a spear to the farthest ranged unit

which is practically an instakill

[ripe willow]

yeah i have seen that, didnt know it went for the farthest ranged unit though

[lofty stag]

yeah it does

thus relative to where patriot goes p2

put a random ranged unit as far as you can from him

so that theyll die, instead of one of your dps/healers

as for the mortars

i could suggest placing down someone like horn last

hence shell be targetted by them

and lessen the urgency of spawnkilling them

[ripe willow]

another problem i have is after the phase change, two enemies spawn on the upper path that i cant seem to stop from leaking

[lofty stag]

wdym, like they overwhelm the primary laneholder?

[ripe willow]

i tried placing someone to stop them from leaking but having Patriot's buff they just steamroll it

[lofty stag]

oh as in your ops just die

and they just walk through

[ripe willow]

they appear on g5/6, and then from there they kill the operators and i cant manage to stop those two and the rest of the things happening

[lofty stag]

im guessing theyre the helidrop crossbow men

[ripe willow]

they arent crossbow men though, im pretty sure they are melee

[lofty stag]

oh right

melee versions exist of them

so they along with the main mobs

overwhelm your #2 column

correct?

[ripe willow]

yeah

[lofty stag]

i think the main problem is the healing

ptilopsis is fine enough

but i have to admit

e2ing gavial was not a smart move

[ripe willow]

it was ages ago i did that so blame past me

[lofty stag]

fair

do you happen to have sussuro

[ripe willow]

the 4 star right

[lofty stag]

or purestream

[ripe willow]

no idea who purestream is, here's my sussurro

[lofty stag]

oh that should be plenty enough

see sussoro s2

is quite a cracked skill

tho only 2 uses

she may end up as a way better medic than even your e2 gavi

considering a lot of low end clears

take sussoro as the main medic

[ripe willow]

huh. . .i see. . .

[lofty stag]

what other medics/guardians you have?

[ripe willow]

my medics

I dont have a single Guardian built, the best i have is E1 Lv60 Gummy

I still havent spent the free 6 star ticket recently given so I CAN get Saria

[lofty stag]

yeah id just stick with sus and ptilo

[ripe willow]

aight

[lofty stag]

another idea that might work

other than healing

is to position your execalter in f2 or e2

that way

if deployed last

he can bait the mortars

[ripe willow]

Who?

[lofty stag]

without the mortar splash doing unnecessary dmg to other ops

[somber stone]

Executor alt

[ripe willow]

Oh okay

[lofty stag]

and s2 might help with his tanking

as long as patriot goes nowhere near that area

[ripe willow]

Patriot never gets to that area on my runs, but thats also around the time i have trouble continuing

[lofty stag]

if you see exec dying to the mortars still

i might suggest using gummy instead

obv deployed last

but she might be better suited to baiting mortars

while sacrificing dmg

tho idt you need any more dmg than what you have

[ripe willow]

W'Alter just makes sure to do most of the damage for Patriot and some other enemies

[lofty stag]

also i highly suggest to make proper use of the mines

that the stage gives you

a lot of single op clears of this stage bank on proper mine usage

[ripe willow]

trying to use the mines when i can

its a bit hard to micromanage

[lofty stag]

its not much about micromanaging as much as it is about predicting

if you dont want to think

there are tiles where only patriot enters

[ripe willow]

which ones?

[lofty stag]

i believe d6,c6,d4,c4 are some such

tiles

[ripe willow]

oh yeah

[lofty stag]

granted this is just to help hasten the patriot death

so he stops buffing the other mobs

but yeah

you should be good now

overall, use sussuro

ranged op to bait p2 spear

exec/gummy deployed last to bait mortars

use mines

[ripe willow]

Now i just need to find what are the best places for operators

I FINALLY GOT IT

tHANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE HELP

[lofty stag]

no problem homie

[ripe willow]

that was amazing, tysm

Onto Chapter 8 i go now

AND i got the 3 star result :3

[lofty sundial]

to buff ulpianus, should i buff him on his original tile, or at his destination
(warfarin buff)

[glad forge]

original so he benefits the atk buff with his anchor toss

[spark sinew]

does he keep the atk buff

buffing him doesn't seem too great regardless though, since it will be diluted to hell

[glad forge]

He does but the atk increase is piss

[foggy grove]

hmmm

[glad forge]

And

if u whiff the anchor and he 'redeploys' himself the buff goes away

so u keep it when he teleports to his anchor but loses it when he whiffs or when u end his skill

the increase is like 6227 -> 6792

probably less considering i didnt full stack his passive first

[foggy grove]

so i did a test
this is wrong

you need to warf him on his destination tiles

[glad forge]

yeah ur right

im just stoopid

[smoky halo]

activating s3 is a redeploy so u need to buff after its done

[glad forge]

it goes to 8.5k,

[smoky halo]

even if u dont move tiles

[glad forge]

thats so piss

[smoky halo]

just use stainless

[glad forge]

therefore best support for ulpipi atk buff is skadi

[spark sinew]

smh i got pinged just for misinfo

is this the quality!

[glad forge]

[smoky halo]

[glad forge]

22% atk buff that follows him

[spark sinew]

skadi buffs according to her attack

oh you mean og skadi

she exists, i forgot

[shell plank]

Benched just like Andreana

[spark sinew]

never was used

🫡

[opaque bridge]

this thing took me a few rounds to figure out a solution w/out logos :l

[full terrace]

It's not that hard. Even my 2 weeks old alt account with only Wis and a bunch of L1E0s could do it.

[wary wing]

2 weeks old
wisadel

[civic bear]

Wisadel e0 🥺

[foggy grove]

e2 5*,borrow maxed wis
brain rot

[twin jetty]

chat, am i too underleveled for cm ex bp 8?

[civic bear]

what levels are you

cant exactly see all op levels there

[livid tiger]

Help in challenge modes bp

From ex-1 to ex-8

[twin jetty]

nvm, i dont think im underleveled, i think im overleveled. cuz i kill the boss linked minions so fast that wisadel doesnt have enough time to redeploy to kill the 2nd phase minions

[civic bear]

yeah

with all those e2s does seem like it

[twin jetty]

i tried another run without using skills on both amiya and mostim, and it still happened

mostly because boss link target*

[civic bear]

where is wisadel deployed?

id just have wisadel help lane holding bottom, all link target eventually moves towards you

and since it seems like its what causing problem for you

the right side moves quite slow so you just want aoes

[twin jetty]

for like 1st phase, on the white block left bottom near midnight, and on 2nd phase. she should be in either where ptilo place or right next to her

[civic bear]

i assume you used her 1st phase facing up

[twin jetty]

yes

[civic bear]

so you kill the boss fast?

[twin jetty]

basically

[civic bear]

you dont have to do that

[twin jetty]

kyostinv vid

[civic bear]

just play it slow

[twin jetty]

in his vid, he used chain caster. i didnt have that, so i used mostim

[civic bear]

mosti is good enough

[twin jetty]

so i just had mostim + amiya combo

[civic bear]

yeah

[twin jetty]

and i think that's the problem

i wanna do 1 more run in where i dont redeploy wisadel and just let her be in the 1st phase

and i just cope that saria + ptilo s2 can hold out long enough

[civic bear]

you just want to make sure everythign would be within wisadel range on the bottom left

i would just make wisadel face right or smth

i mean it also works facing up tbf

since you got a blocker on the right i guess

just no need to redeploy since everything goes to that path yeah

[twin jetty]

that may work, but 1st phase gonna be ass if it links to the left minions

oh wow, i might be ded

gravel clutch into amiya into yato

time to actually do it

[opaque bridge]

I hate this map
what do I do

[full terrace]

That Wisadel positioning is so so awkward

[civic bear]

damn reed kinda carrying as a support

[full terrace]

Thats your alt account? 😂

[civic bear]

i dont think this shit is clearable without support tho

noone is dealing any dmg to mobs

[full terrace]

Block the boss and then ranged burst her quick before she spawns a million minions.

[civic bear]

😭

[full terrace]

Phase 1 ~ Phase 2 transitioning you can cheese it with Shu's teleportation.

[full terrace]

Yeh I used Support all the way. Perk of an alt account I can just borrow any unit from my main account.

[civic bear]

ok

maybe

only early stage

later stage got the tower shit

and thats actually op

oh welp never mind still dies to the ranged mobs 😂

[full terrace]

My BP-EX-8 is still cursed tho. I brought a million cheap bodies and keep throwing them at those big thingies to push them back until Wisadel recharged her skill 🤣

[remote perch]

I just shoot them until they die

[regal frost]

big brain

[civic bear]

yeah def need atleast 1 borrow this shit so stupid

[full terrace]

Yah rarity abuse kinda killed the fun for me, BP-EX-1 to BP-EX-8 plus CMs in like 45 mins going in blind after the EX stages opened #strategy message, not much fun to be had.

I enjoy playing my alt account more

[scarlet mortar]

are you still doing E0L1

or speedrunning

[civic bear]

e0 1

im trying to clear farm maps

[full terrace]

bozos

[regal frost]

ancool are you ok

[scarlet mortar]

[regal frost]

it would be very chaotic

qyurii if you become a doctor strange main, don't kill us all please

[pure orchid]

[regal frost]

oh that happened to me yesterday actually

I just walked out

[civic bear]

nooooo

fk

3rd last guy spawns ranged guy

immedaitely lost

😭

[regal frost]

take a break, it sounds like you need it

[civic bear]

nah im just very clsoe

keep forgetting to use good op like orchid

[narrow pendant]

Never cuz i aint installing that shit

[regal frost]

whyy

[narrow pendant]

Idk, maybe i will

Gib me link to it in dms, install when home

[regal frost]

if we need a healer main we convince kotkai to play as rocket raccoon

[narrow pendant]

Sometime, i need to study for a programming test

[regal frost]

I keep telling myself I'll do assignments

instead I've been binge playing rivals

[narrow pendant]

I'll suck tho

Neber played overwatch cuz its shit now

Played other team fight games like it tho

[civic bear]

oh ez i rolled god rng

[scarlet mortar]

it's just that easy

cluel

[nocturne cove]

i uninstalled it 😭

let's play chained together instead

[proud temple]

dante

[pure orchid]

Counter-proposal: I will chain you instead

[proud temple]

@spark sinew this took years off my life

[worthy mason]

Bro that fish stuns everything

changed berry to lumen

right lane needs help for phase 2 fr

[proud temple]

borrow texas alt

[worthy mason]

IM TWEAKING OUT1!!!

everything was going well, but the two tiles in front of ela got blocked

[worthy mason]

tried to not use her but i succumbed

[proud temple]

[celest ocean]

Any advise how you can handle the right side on ex-8 event challenge mode?

Every Meelle op that I place get instant stunned.

Is it just "have a really good arts ranged DPS"?

[worthy mason]

THORNS DIED TO HUMANITY'S BANE RAHHHH

[proud temple]

i used typhon facing leftside

s2m3 lvl80

[worthy mason]

i remember blemichi made an afk clear of smth, using horn s1 with nearl to help her

[proud temple]

oh

[full terrace]

Hmm I thought I'd never see people struggle with EX-8

[full terrace]

What your best ranged op there

I mean even Click can handle right side

[worthy mason]

lies

[full terrace]

Nah Kyostin used Click and Pudding on right side.

[celest ocean]

Amiya and ifrit

Don't have click build yet

[full terrace]

Could you show me your operators, that way I can build a better image in my head

[celest ocean]

For my understanding
Wouldn't pudding also get stunned in 1 shot?

[full terrace]

Not if you position her right

[celest ocean]

Can post it later can't open game right now

[full terrace]

Do you want me to send you kyostin's video?

[celest ocean]

I will watch it

[full terrace]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OlsV6oFSE80

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=focuy1xNU48

[worthy mason]

do i put thorns like this so he can kill everything and not get overwhelmed later?

[full terrace]

If he can survive the etc minions circling around before Phase 2 yea

I just drop Logos on right side, do 1 skill and retreat

Then redeploy him next to Wisadel

[worthy mason]

he just gonna 1v1 a herald with ranged tile buff later

im scared now

[proud temple]

he'll probs die

[full terrace]

Yeah exactly

[worthy mason]

FUCK I DIDN'T SCREENSHOT THE CLEAR ENDSCREEN

whatever

[full terrace]

My positioning is like this:

• Wisadel on red circled tile facing up
• Logos (S3) on blue circled tile and do one skill then retreat. Later on redeploy Logos on blue squared tile facing up
• Spawn carapace on white squared tiles to change the pathing so that enemies walk through Wisadel's range. During Wisadel's offskill, keep throwing cheap bodies to push enemies back to stall.

[proud temple]

[full terrace]

Yeah congrats its not that hard

[worthy mason]

harold still harder guh guh

[proud temple]

harold is a pain in the ass

good thing i can nuke with aak s3 and horn s2

🙏

[spark sinew]

?

[worthy mason]

i had to go around and remake kyo guide cuz i got no damn blaze and gg (now i got gg)

[proud temple]

400/400

[proud temple]

[tidal sedge]

Hey guys is it posible to clear EX-6 with lower rarities?

[wary imp]

so far so good

[spark sinew]

how low is low

although 3 stars still clear it, so the answer is yes

[tidal sedge]

Hmm rats I don't have those

I'll just stop at 6 for now.

[full terrace]

Yes it's possible

If my 2 weeks old account with bunch of L1E0s could do it, any developed account can definitely do it.

Just make sure you borrow Wisadel

[spark sinew]

ling soloes, so zzz

insta e2 is too op for progression

game isn't ready

everything breaks

[full terrace]

Yeh newbies can just steamroll everything and thats not counting the free 6 Star selector.

With L80E2 5 Star, borrowed Wis/Logos, the rerolled 6 Star, and the 6 Star from selector, newbies start with 4 powerful units they dont even need to build 2-3-4 Stars.

[blissful wagon]

guys

https://youtu.be/qXXIw-3QzAE

I did funny thing

but

because I am a masochist

wanna see if there's any way at all to make this 3 OPs

"Almond, Ambriel, Andreana, Ash, Blitz, Castle-3, Catherine, Cement, Coldshot, Crownslayer, Doc, Ela, Elysium, Fiammetta?, Firewatch, Folinic?, Franka, Frost, Friston-3, Fuze, Heavyrain, Horn?, Iana, Jessica, Jessica Alter, Justice Knight, Lancet-2, Liskarm, Lutonada, Magallan, Melanite, Meteorite, Mudrock, Phonor-0, Saileach, Schwarz, Spuria, Stainless, Tachanka, THRM-EX, Vanilla, Windflit."

So can anyone watch the vid and look at this list

and then tell me if 3 OPs is possible at all?

kinda hitting a blank

[civic bear]

Magallan in

Hmm

[blissful wagon]

would she be useful? the bone blocks can't have summons on top

and without them there are not many ranged tiles

[civic bear]

Tf

She can't?

That's dumb nvm then

[blissful wagon]

I tried to deploy Ela's mines on them

they don't work

[civic bear]

3 ops u need summoners p badly

You could try

Mudrock

[blissful wagon]

Mudrock, Ela and Horn?

[civic bear]

Ye

Mud s3

[blissful wagon]

hmmm

I see, yeah

guess it's time to suffer AGAIN

[civic bear]

Or

Could also try mag s2

😂

[blissful wagon]

I'd need a friend with that

kekw

maybe it can work

[full terrace]

There is a video out there with Wis+Asca clear

[blissful wagon]

the nurses have low-ish res

[blissful wagon]

yeeee, but I'm doing a niche run

if Wis dressed appropriately she'd be in this niche

ahem

[civic bear]

Ela prob better tho

Cuz you can slow while mud s3

[blissful wagon]

that is true

[civic bear]

Uhh

You can also consider

Stainless

Instead of horn

[blissful wagon]

can Stainless solo clear right?

[civic bear]

Idk

Lol

[blissful wagon]

lmao

I suppose that's some experimentation to do

but did you watch the clear? how was it?

the fact that I made mistakes and still won is why I asked for a 3 OPs idea

lol

[civic bear]

Does seem like it just slight issue to remove meteorite

Mud maybe would help

Also having good rng spawn prob would too

[blissful wagon]

yeah

funny thing

on the run with good enemy spawn

I got too excited, forgot right lane, and Horn died

then randomly won with prolly the worst spawn ever

[blissful wagon]

seems improbable, or at least my Mudmud skill timing is too bad

cooldown kinda fugs with her since the dudes move so quick

[civic bear]

Mag s2 it is

switch to mud s2

Mag s2 for arts dmg

[blissful wagon]

do you have Mag S2?

lol

[civic bear]

No slots

Or do I dunno

Not that it's mod3 on the good mod

[blissful wagon]

actually, I'll just see if it's probable first, so I'll just refresh with an SL7 Mag

if the damage is nowhere close then I'll prolly give up

lol

nvm @civic bear I think it's Joever. 3 OPs mean that at least one of my important OPs will be hit by Martus phase 2 debuff

when it's 4 OPs I just ignored it cuz it's Horn and Meteorite

but if it's Mag/Mud/Ela

then I just lose

is it

joever?

[civic bear]

Gg

[blissful wagon]

aye

then that means 4 OPs is as far as I'll go on NM

[civic bear]

Just do cms

Cm is quite a jump

So 4 op cm might be more doable

[blissful wagon]

4 OPs CM sounds cringe for the same reason. Stat buff + Martus have all skill cooldowns reduced

instead of just Humanity's Bane

[civic bear]

That the challenge tho

[scarlet fulcrum]

Well dressed knights interesting

[blissful wagon]

I actually didn't notice how fast the debuffs were in my normal run kekw

but if the debuffs can be on 3 units at one time then I'm prolly cooked with just 4 OPs

[hearty bough]

In BP-EX-8, the boss's link dmg would heal Ulpianus right?

[blissful wagon]

realistically yes
