strategy

[scarlet fulcrum]

Yea lmd and exp from event shop are ur prio

Main prio

[undone portal]

ok

also thank yall for having the patience to deal with my bumass

[scarlet fulcrum]

Take it easy

[undone portal]

ye

[somber falcon]

np
we've had far worse, you're a walk in the park

[brisk surge]

yep

there are people who instead complains and doesnt listen to advices given

[undone portal]

huh

[scarlet fulcrum]

Ppl who insisted ling to solo all stages, ppl who refuse to use shift. Those kinda of ppl

[somber falcon]

that takes me back lmao

[scarlet fulcrum]

[undone portal]

why would they solo stages????

[brisk surge]

or people who isnt gonna aknowledge that its a strategy game and they want to close their eyes and win with no effort

[elder flume]

ego

[undone portal]

fair nuff

[brisk surge]

my ego is that i make clears for people it makes me feel needed

[undone portal]

and to that i thank ur advice

[brisk surge]

[elder flume]

E2 CS is pretty pog ngl
her art alone intrigues me
and shes a specialist

[scarlet fulcrum]

Her and ascalon still no skin, sadge

Oh wait CE nvm

[undone portal]

thats what i was trying to aim cuz the portrait looks fire ngl :o

[somber falcon]

ascalon should be anytime soon imo
she's pretty popular afterall

[brisk surge]

i cant justify building CS when i have the goat mlynar unbuilt

[scarlet fulcrum]

Yea, ppl expected her the most on stream

[somber falcon]

female > male
ez

[brisk surge]

nah bro

his skin in anni 6

so fucking awesome

i need young mlynar

also is there any reason for me to build irene, shes just sitting there

[scarlet fulcrum]

I prefer his skin with Toland, quite g*y

[elder flume]

actually does Shaw keep PV9 mid safe

SL4

or do i need S2L7 hm

[inland robin]

until joining this disc, i wasnt sure how popular ascalon was, but it seems like everyone here really likes her

[brisk surge]

pv9?

[elder flume]

ye if mid is problematic just shift

[brisk surge]

you cant put him in the middle though

middle has no tiles

[inland robin]

her design is so cool

[somber falcon]

50% training duration

[scarlet fulcrum]

To pathing the caster?

[brisk surge]

[somber falcon]

combat wise still solid tbh

[brisk surge]

i still have mlynar hoe laptop before its irenes turn

[elder flume]

ye

[brisk surge]

smh

not enough mats

[brisk surge]

YOU GO TRY IT

[elder flume]

my Shaw is M6

[brisk surge]

mr pusher making me do his dirty work

[somber falcon]

hot woman with booba
not that high of a bar

[scarlet fulcrum]

Ah yea caster probably will target altar first? Idr. Or splitboxed between ranged tile

[inland robin]

as a unit to suggest for pulling anyway lol

my buddy is new and was asking what to pick on the vouchers

[somber falcon]

well yeah she's good

[brisk surge]

E0 max shaw?

will it even be enough

[somber falcon]

help dwellers just advocated to skip back on her debut because every single one of them fomo for wis

[inland robin]

i dont give too good advice, im way out of touch with meta i think

[brisk surge]

with slow fireworks?

[somber falcon]

😴

[elder flume]

if they cant die then level shouldnt be problem

burn

[brisk surge]

burn

but push power?

[inland robin]

pain

[elder flume]

SL4 is force 1

against weight 2 is roughly .4 tiles

[brisk surge]

MY LMD

holy shit making these guides costed me all my money

[scarlet fulcrum]

Atleast it cancel their skill

[elder flume]

• Shaw buff

[brisk surge]

alright

maxed shaw e0

lets run it

[elder flume]

imagine not having E2 shifters

[brisk surge]

well i do have e2

but isnt this like for low end

[elder flume]

ye

[brisk surge]

im gonna touch you rain

[elder flume]

thats why im asking u

[somber falcon]

can't you just combo it with a puller

from above

[brisk surge]

dont make me spend more lmd

🥺

[somber falcon]

sl4 doesn't need money

clueless

[elder flume]

if you can afford the blocking sure

[somber falcon]

there's a free tile up top no?

boxed tile

[full terrace]

Leewwwdddd

[somber falcon]

or are they not on the same column

yeah they are

[brisk surge]

ye

i see

[full terrace]

I opened discord first thing I see Maxxers touching Rain

100/100

[elder flume]

hm my strat is more on blocking as many enemies as possible so if i were to pull i would also utilize their block 2

im still pure dw

[brisk surge]

i didnt bring blockers

i dont see the vision

i cannot get shifters to work

in my hands they are just shitters

there are just too many enemies that they end up blocking enemies instead of shifting

[full terrace]

Shaw can push but this does not work because all the bottom enemies wanna walk through that tile

So Shaw just blocks them

From behind

[brisk surge]

that

that

i wasted 100k lmd to be bricked

[elder flume]

Tuya killing too fast

[full terrace]

Yah but I mean, Shaw is only shifting the ones coming from middle red box

[willow sun]

just realized my old graphs were capped at 1000 pulls when its more realistic to be looking at 300 pulls which is the spark count so:

[clever hedge]

enforcer use case?

[elder flume]

it was mostly for this

oh still 1 more limit cuz robot

[brisk surge]

you think thats enough

ill try again

[elder flume]

idk

certainly hard with Eo 1

as thats what ive been using and failing

[brisk surge]

i have e1 lappy and e1 pine so idk

ill see how it goes on my end

[elder flume]

supposed to time Shaw deploy after a defender blocks car in burn range

its ambitious

and so annoying to do

[brisk surge]

its hard

i se

see

i see the potential

hold up

[full terrace]

If you are gonna use Pinecone just have her shoot enemies in front of firework

And throw Lava at it as well

[willow sun]

@wispy condor oh yeah i just got reminded of it but i think you'd like this chart/find it interesting

[wispy condor]

having a hard time parsing the y-axis. explain

[willow sun]

and here's a less deceiving version with a probability that starts at 0

[willow sun]

basically for the first 50 pulls pity is impossible right, so the probability of getting a 6* per pull is 2% or 0.02

but once you pass 50 pulls, you start getting into pity territory, so on average when you do more than 50 pulls your chance of getting a 6* per pull goes up

and this graph just shows how much it goes up

it stabilizes at around 2.9% chance per pull for a 6* (which is where the "average pulls per 6* is 34/35" comes from) after like 5000 pulls but like

[elder flume]

Pine is for balloon

[wispy condor]

so its the chance of getting a 6star on that given pull, accounting for pity

[elder flume]

Since E0 Kroos prob cant

[willow sun]

accounting for the average pity at the number of pulls you're at

[elder flume]

Tho Pine n Kroos switch position is prob better

Then ye Lava can be 8th op

[wispy condor]

average pity so this also accounts for pulling a 6star along the way and breaking your pity then

[willow sun]

so basically what i did was i simulated 5,000,000 accounts each doing 300 pulls, pity system included
each time they pulled a 6* i added +1 to their six star counter, and as they did pulls that counter would be constantly updated and divided by the number of total pulls they've done, creating a line that bumps up everytime they pull a 6*
now average all of those lines and this is what you end up with

[willow sun]

yup

[wispy condor]

out of curiosity what was the mean number of 6stars pulled in this sim

[willow sun]

in 300 pulls?

[wispy condor]

yes

[willow sun]

err i have another sim running right now so i can't check

if i had to guess based off of looks though

8.34

its very close to the number that light's gotten

he's done similar calculations but i'm just graphing them since my coding language supports graphing better

[wispy condor]

35pulls/6star estimate is pretty accurate then

[willow sun]

yup, its just a bit higher than realistically because 35 pulls assumes youre doing an infinite amount of rolls an infinite amount of times as your dataset

so like say you only did 100 pulls

[brisk surge]

im getting cancer

shaw i s a fucking fraud

he pused the same enemy twice

thank yopu

aw] fkjp[\adf

aFUCK

[willow sun]

on average you wouldn't be getting 100/35 = 2.86 6 stars, but rather 100*0.0257 = 2.57 6 stars

[willow sun]

😭

i believe in the fireworks

they'll kill him

trust

[brisk surge]

it did not

[willow sun]

gg

[wispy condor]

following the above graph, thats . about 5.5 6stars on average in 200pulls then

[willow sun]

yup, 5.5

actually let me turn on the grid wtf am i doing

[wispy condor]

lmao

cant wait to put that average to the test in 3months

[willow sun]

ok there you go

this is with the test data

its pretty trippy

basically each dot represents a simulation where it pulled that many times and pulled enough 6* to average that specific chance

you can see some outliers like this guy who pulled 285 times and got 23 6 stars 🥹

[wispy condor]

blessed..

[willow sun]

or this guy who pulled 274 times and got... 4 6 stars (point and laugh)

this is in a sample size of 5 million accounts though and it's pretty cool how ak pity system makes you much more likely to pull some crazy lucky stuff rather than some crazy unlucky stuff (which, waow, thats like what pity's supposed to do )

[wispy condor]

i <3 pity systems and sparking

[brisk surge]

@elder flume

E0 on pinecone i think impossible

[narrow pendant]

I love u

[willow sun]

fredi got cut off

[brisk surge]

nope

fuck you fredi

[willow sun]

wow max stealing fredi's love

[brisk surge]

im the bridge in between him and his love

[willow sun]

that reminds me actually, i took friston p out of my clear because i was afraid newbies wouldn't have him 🥹

[wispy condor]

ive been playing gacha games for years and never felt like i was gambling once planning out pulls for months in advance is my lifeblood

[brisk surge]

thats also what i thought

i dont think they have friston

[willow sun]

"i dont have the 1 star, who can i replace him with?"
literally any 3 block ever:

[wispy condor]

accounting for lacking robots is actually pretty real, i recall hitting ch13 before getting my first copy of justice knight

[brisk surge]

i got it from POO so

and with this strat

you cannot not have friston

its literally not doable

[willow sun]

not even cardi?

[brisk surge]

he doesnt cost deployment

[willow sun]

the video is not loading btw, i can hear the audio but its stuck on the thumbnail

ohhh

[brisk surge]

thats the issue

[willow sun]

wow rng clear smh

[narrow pendant]

Fuck me yourself coward

[willow sun]

into my photos folder

[wispy condor]

immortalized

[brisk surge]

am i really gonna post every run to youtube

because discord is shit

[willow sun]

streamable?

its more "temporary"

just can't handle super large files like >2 gb i think

[wispy condor]

noir corne opener . sure looks a lot more intuitive than the 'marcille s2 slows car 4 times before starting 2nd charge' bs i went with for this

[willow sun]

[wispy condor]

at least she gets to double as both noir and pinecone

[willow sun]

yeah when i came up with my low end clear i just stalled for as long as possible until the cars were in the right position while also not stepping on the fuse

[willow sun]

i think an e1 55 catapult can actually solo the balloons

but like

ew catapult

[wispy condor]

assuming anyone normal has a maxed catapult

[brisk surge]

yeah but that E1 55

[willow sun]

mine's only e1 10 for base

sl1 i think

i'd rather not give her skill levels

[brisk surge]

mine is E1 0

because i got her to do this shit

https://youtu.be/F0fAl2yNnPE

there

[smoky halo]

fraud

[willow sun]

fraud

[wispy condor]

[brisk surge]

i think

lap was replacable there with midnight

but i dont have him upgraded

definitely not doable at e0

[smoky halo]

why isnt midnight built

[brisk surge]

man

[smoky halo]

hes good tho

[brisk surge]

i dont play 3 stars fib

[smoky halo]

spend 100k lmd for 200 orundumb

good deal

[brisk surge]

i only just started using them because of this event

just to help people

[smoky halo]

its not even a 3 star thing

its for pulls

[brisk surge]

its 200

[smoky halo]

🗣️

theres like 30 3stars or smthing

[brisk surge]

i work 1 hour at macdonalds its like 10 pull

[smoky halo]

thats like 10 pulls

[brisk surge]

im gonna touch you

[smoky halo]

[rapid junco]

No touching in my Christian chat room pls

[brisk surge]

you definitely up there

in the list

[willow sun]

ia #1 on at least ten touch lists

[brisk surge]

thats true

[rapid junco]

Wtf , why I got aimed

[brisk surge]

you have always been top 1

[elder flume]

I'll get to it when i reach home

Tldr raise your ops

[brisk surge]

yeah

e0 is too far of a stretch really

[elder flume]

or E1 max all 3 stars to copy guides

Tbh idk how Friston is nowadays

Still the only robot not P6 for me

And Confess is coming soon

[brisk surge]

they should bring back POO 1000% hp modifier

[elder flume]

Friston is almost way too useful to not go for tho

[brisk surge]

yeah but

i dont think you can just get robots just because you wanted to

im still missing 1 or 2

[elder flume]

They have hundreds of recruits

[brisk surge]

i spent 400 and ive seen it like twice

[elder flume]

Like the tags?

[brisk surge]

yeah

[elder flume]

I just do 1hr defender

[brisk surge]

is 1 hour the best for it

i heard like 3 50 or something idk

[rapid junco]

Did rain spam guard 1 hr for castle 3 too?

[elder flume]

3 50 but if it fails i have another chance for another robot

Ye

Phonor is a cheat code with elemental tag

[brisk surge]

wait so is 1 hr spam better?

[elder flume]

You can go 3 50 spam if you want with the tag

Tagless 1 hr better

[brisk surge]

i see

maybe ill do that

i have too many tickets anyways

[rapid junco]

Rangers asmr incoming

[smoky halo]

i hope confess can hit air

🥹

[vivid rain]

confess is a fucking pioneer bro

[smoky halo]

zzzzz

first pioneer to hit air

trust

[rapid junco]

Texas is a pioneer, still can hit air

[elder flume]

Texas

[vivid rain]

Nope texas

[smoky halo]

oh wait texas cam

ya

mb

[brisk surge]

smh

[vivid rain]

but only on skill

[brisk surge]

i thought you dalao

[smoky halo]

i am noob

[vivid rain]

guess what confess skill is

[smoky halo]

couldnt clear go ex 8 cm

😔

[brisk surge]

wtfart

[smoky halo]

i have no medics the situation is dire

bro i feel like this stage is impossible without a medic or tank

[rapid junco]

Raise lumen angle

[smoky halo]

i play lateran only

[elder flume]

Increase dp regen by 30% when deployed for 25s

[smoky halo]

🥹

[brisk surge]

starve

[smoky halo]

man i hope lemuen isnt too strong

otherwise the clears will just me lemuen solo

😭

[brisk surge]

wow

fib meta player

im waiting for lemuen so i can archetto battery

[wispy condor]

solo with miksa instead

[smoky halo]

that means i need to move to harder stages

zzzz

[brisk surge]

d18 sentinel solo?

[smoky halo]

btw can exualt stun air

[smoky halo]

d18 highmorb relicless

if theyre strong enough

i will try

[rapid junco]

Exu stun?

[smoky halo]

she has a stun no?

[brisk surge]

no?

[rapid junco]

Idk, not read her skill but geek have stun chance on trait

And ya, it's can hit air

[brisk surge]

oh alter

reading is hard

[smoky halo]

ok so my options for stunning are exualt

or ambriel

(both r cringe)

[sly drift]

Geek trait is literally just losing HP over time. It's laughable

Stun is coming from Aak talent which Exu don't have.

[limpid ore]

she has no stun

[narrow pendant]

Geek trait is changing tho

So that makes it bit better

Less hp drain and cant die from it anymorr

[sly drift]

What changing. Did I missed something

[toxic orchid]

how do you beat PV-3

[limpid ore]

^ @sly drift

announced during the stream

[strange hazel]

get the spark to the fireworks then shoot balloons to make your operators invincible longer

then just dps down the other enemies (particularly jugglers) with whatever you have that does damage

[limpid ore]

use the event mechanic

[strange hazel]

basically that

[limpid ore]

read the event tutorial

[steel prairie]

Im facing Frost again... where does she appear on the stage ??? Is it the same as the first encounter or she only arrives late now ???

also what those T things ???

[brisk surge]

play the stage and find out

you have practice tickets

[steel prairie]

bruh... thats of lot time wasted... and I already got into that

[brisk surge]

then dont play the game, me when i play a strategy game to not play it reasoning

whar

[steel prairie]

you kidding me ??? other strategy games dont have that issue

I already dive into that so Im not gonna argue with it

[hasty spruce]

like whats up danger

💔

[hasty spruce]

i mean OTHER strategy games, were talking about arknights here brody

[steel prairie]

hes the one that first mentions strategy game ok ???

[hasty spruce]

and besides you already know where she spawns by those arrows

[hasty spruce]

mb gang

also had trouble with that stage

even with a support operator

[brisk surge]

[steel prairie]

those are for hordes... and there are three enemy spawns,,, so she has 3 options to go from

[brisk surge]

other strategy games hes gonna bring out al again

[hasty spruce]

brother

[brisk surge]

where you pick 6 characters and autobattle

[sly drift]

What's ur roster

[steel prairie]

bruh I didnt even mention al as a strategy game

that was for a different topic

[pure orchid]

Alright everyone shut

[hasty spruce]

heres the layout brody

[pure orchid]

Lets restart

[brisk surge]

nope

[steel prairie]

thats his problem

[pure orchid]

We would tell you, but it’s better if you find out yourself

But if you’re adamant on not doing that, here’s your spoonfeed

||Cold/freeze devices spawn there later||

[steel prairie]

Ik but I dont want to constantly reset every single time especially how much time this game burns when you try to reset

[steel prairie]

oh so they do shift ??? just like the hidden crossbows

[hasty spruce]

just waste those 1 sanity on retrys brody

[steel prairie]

no thats not the issue... the loading in and out and constantly spam clicking just to get everything to reset

[brisk surge]

hes here for spoonfeeding everyday, playing the game normally is impossible

at this point i can record a schedule on when he shows up

[pure orchid]

They never shift, they’re set per map in order and placement

The only rng here is frostnova’s tile ban skill

[pure orchid]

If he wants to play the game that way, let him

We can only show the way, not force him to walk on it

[steel prairie]

look if you dont want to help then dont say anything... or else ask the mods to remove the help section

[sly drift]

why the fk are you guys arguing over something this mundane.

Insane

[brisk surge]

its discord

[steel prairie]

I wasnt even the one trying to argue... @brisk surge started it and all I want to ask is info

[pure orchid]

Anka’s perspective was humanizing, through him I somehow found patience I didn’t know I had

[brisk surge]

hes feeding into it by replying to me

[steel prairie]

bruh your the first one to reply to me

[pure orchid]

Thats why i said lets all just restart and get back to the problem

Guys pls

We here to solve stage not argue

Get to work or im cracking whip

[brisk surge]

go ahead

[steel prairie]

just block him

[brisk surge]

im only helping people who help themselves in the first place

[pure orchid]

Maxxers is good dw

[maiden hound]

just borrow gg bro

[pure orchid]

Its all honestly just misunderstanding

And clash of values

[brisk surge]

i fail to see the point even even playing the game if this is how you play

[hasty spruce]

thats what im thinking about

but theres no one with gg 💔

[brisk surge]

you might as well type into youtube , kyostinv xxx stage

to find all the answers

[steel prairie]

sry I misphrased... I mean the blocks suddenly turns into obstacles... like how the previous maps you have hidden crossbows and such

[strange hazel]

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

if you figure out where things are it lists every enemy spawn / path which i use when optimizing stages

[pure orchid]

Not sure what you mean by that but whatever helps you understand better

[somber falcon]

what's your id

[pure orchid]

Map.ark is great

[steel prairie]

oh rip the english there is not working

[strange hazel]

just click map on the top toolbar

the eng works there

why did you remove the embedded video

wtfart

[pure orchid]

Yh i was watching that smh

[elder flume]

Oh did it work for you

It was blank for me

[pure orchid]

Rain on bootleg discord

[elder flume]

Im never updating Discord

[brisk surge]

im still not gonna use her though

i dont see where id use her

[pure orchid]

Block ch10 drones

[elder flume]

She avoids fireball

Quite fun

[pure orchid]

Kinda sad how modern stage design doesnt have much aerial threat

[brisk surge]

i guess fun is the only thing

[pure orchid]

Contrail was too late to the party

[brisk surge]

i hate aerial threats

ccb1 gave me mini cancer

[pure orchid]

I hate threats

Can we just have no enemies straight up

[brisk surge]

arknights but its just shu farming

[pure orchid]

Start stage
Load in
Mission accomplished

[strange hazel]

yeah the big ursus drones / tombraiser grotesques might have been perfect contrail usecases

[brisk surge]

dammit bro the artist that you recommended draws vtubers

smh

[pure orchid]

Whats wrong with that bruh 😭

She draw a lotta shit

I love her style

How much color? Yes

She made suisei’s coverart for her Budokan concert

[brisk surge]

surely im not talking to a suisei fan

[pure orchid]

I am not a suisei fan

The only vtuber i watch is anny

[brisk surge]

okay i was about to click on block

whew

anyways

[pure orchid]

Wtf

Suisei phobia

[brisk surge]

suisei racism

[pure orchid]

Whar they do to u

[brisk surge]

i do like the color usage but im not that into special effects

maybe ill try something like this one day

[steel prairie]

lol the suicopath... also which vtuber is anny ??? I mainly watch Sora and Azki (yes Im a normi XD)

[pure orchid]

She’s indie, probably more familiar to others as artist for neuro-sama and evil

[steel prairie]

ah ic

[pure orchid]

She is really funny in her own right tho, ended up watching her more than neuro and co.

But thats just me yapping

[maiden hound]

should i watch "v" tubers

[pure orchid]

Up to u

Essentially theyre you’re regular streamer but with animated model

Theyre still selling you the same base thing, their personality

Think of it like a diff flavour

[maiden hound]

they can't sell me pre-owned 4090s for $10? 😔

[pure orchid]

Wtf is a 4090

[maiden hound]

[maiden hound]

Those are the ones i like

[neon forum]

Tysm I’ll go try this later today then

[brisk surge]

[elder flume]

didnt you experience it in chap 4 already

[glass monolith]

Starting around that point of game 95% of bosses will revive instead (or with) boosts around 50% hp

[steel prairie]

I thought I said I beat chapter 4 a long time ago ???

I said chapter 5 was super difficult... not 4

[strange hazel]

also bosses will gain funny new gimmicks and in certain circumstances their phase 2 is nothing like their phase 1

in either case you will probably have to read the boss description to understand it (the horror)

[glass monolith]

Which you can't even see before taking a healthy dose of beating

[strange hazel]

might be worth it to enter stage and back out if you like to come in with an idea of what you're doing

but you wont know enemy spawns and sometimes the boss attack descriptions are insanely misleading

eg: what do you think the second sentence means

if it was anything along the lines of 'the boss will then shoot through the targetted operator to hit other operators behind them', that's incorrect. the answer is actually 'the boss will teleport 1.5 tiles ahead on its path'. you can read all about it (and similar confusing boss skill translation whoopsidos) here: https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Cliff/Enemy

[glass monolith]

Btw about shitty boss descriptions. Virtuosa event soon. And it has global AoE in phase 2. Because phase 1 has teleport and deal damage to everything in range. But phase 2 is stationary but still does that. How are you suppose to know that? Your operator outside medic range and boss phase 1 died, that's how

I wonder if Global will have Logos bug on rerun which can just one shot boss via event mechanic

[strange hazel]

did they patch on CN?

sounds awesome for lazy / afk clears

[smoky halo]

its not a bug

his s1 shoots a missile that does 250k(?) true dmg (i dont remember exact number) when the enemy is below the hp threshold

the device is below the hp threshold so he just shoots the huge dmg missile on it

and it gets transfered over

[maiden hound]

it's 1m -1 true damage iirc

[glass monolith]

Device transfers 25% damage taken as bullet

And I doubt device execution was "As Lowlight wished" as Logos didn't exist

And it is fixable by making device 10k hp immortal instead 1 hp immortal

[smoky halo]

i thought its 100%

but as phys

[wicked minnow]

physical? I remember using exu for it

[smoky halo]

it records all dmg taken

then converts into 1 phys hit

so 300 hits of 600phys becomes like 180000 phys hit

so exu is good there ya

[wicked minnow]

oh right i forgot the mechanic

[glass monolith]

Pretty sure it was not 1v1 convert. Also it convert every 0.25 second or something so you not really gonna stack 600 hits in that timeframe

[smoky halo]

well ya u wont reach 600 hits

i was just giving an example

[wicked minnow]

Wiki says nothing about reducing the damage

[glass monolith]

Maybe missremembering

Found only that it is convert to physical, every 0.5 (so 0.25 on x2), and device has 100 hp in game code

[civic bear]

9999999

[wicked minnow]

@full terrace do you still wanna try out a crownslayer?

[hearty bough]

Do you guys think an E1L70 Ines can solo the left side?

[narrow pendant]

With micro management maybe?

[steel prairie]

wait why did some of those bonethowers stop moving ???

[narrow pendant]

But it throws those casters and harolds there

[tawdry path]

E1 sounds weak so prob not

[narrow pendant]

They stop moving when they have a target to atk

And the melee guys simply have a checkpoint telling them to wait over there

[steel prairie]

that bonethower wasnt attacking anyone

[narrow pendant]

Checkpoints

[steel prairie]

he just stopped

oh

[narrow pendant]

Enemies have checkpoints they move thru to reach blue bpx

Some of them sinply have a wait timer before they move again

[steel prairie]

well it just feels odd for them to just sit there and die out without me doing anything to them

[narrow pendant]

Melee guys technjcaly dont die iirc

And the bonethrowers are meant to be a threat to your ranged ops up top supporting the rest

[tawdry path]

Games just trolling you in those kind of stages

[narrow pendant]

Iounou, im not a stage designer

[tawdry path]

Like kevin

[opaque kraken]

Not entirely sure, because you'd be facing multiple sarkaz that gives inspiration and caster, and my vulpis who's supposed to handle left, need support in the end 😭 she's e2 too ofc bc who tf would bring her ass below that elite lvl

[full terrace]

Ah I got one already, thanks anyway

[viral edge]

Is there a better way to farm lmd and battle strats? Like it takes forever and so much sanity and IS takes a while as well

[brisk surge]

Base

[viral edge]

Already doing that

[brisk surge]

Then no

Having a good base is most of your income

[full terrace]

Swipe that credit card for OPs, then convert them to Sanity. Subscribe to a Cloud Phone and spend that Sanity on Cloud Phone

[brisk surge]

Spending sanity to farm them is not recommended

[full terrace]

Not recommended to the poor you mean 😏

[viral edge]

Hmm

[brisk surge]

If you aren't poor you don't need to farm

Anyways

[viral edge]

Guess buying monthly lmd packs and records is the way

[hearty bough]

Maybe with a healer then?

[tawdry path]

Well sanity is a luxury usually so spending them on lmd/xp stages isnt that efficient

[viral edge]

Maybe the real farming was the job we had along the way

[rich plover]

What's the timing on JT8-3 Tallulah's bombings in the first phase?

[full terrace]

Or that yes, that works

Make sure you buy the events' LMD packs as well

[tawdry path]

Like 40s or so

20s on 2x

[viral edge]

Already did just had to e2 a bunch of stuff since I just came back to the game

[brisk surge]

This shit is still going on in help chat

Today is just not the day huh

[full terrace]

Her ignition? She did it every 30 secs

[rich plover]

The timer starts at the beginning yea?

What about planting?

[full terrace]

??? Stop making up your own term

[rich plover]

As in the planting 2 fires on your ops

[full terrace]

Thats ignition

[opaque kraken]

Problem personally was the need of adding more block, because if you're not using pusher there, you'd be needing a real laneholder imo that's also self sufficient for them to live

And I'd still need a little bursting help from tequila

[rich plover]

Ah right, what about detonating?

[full terrace]

If there is no ops ignited, she wont detonate

So bait the ignition = your ops are safe

[rich plover]

I'm pulling out CS

[full terrace]

Or Gravel yeah

[hearty bough]

Hmmm, maybe I could try with Tequila solo instead

[serene umbra]

Hello ! What is Mlynar's best skill ?

[opaque kraken]

s3

[serene umbra]

Okay !

I'll up him E2 when I have enough resources thanks

[somber falcon]

just put mud there and leave the lane to her

or mountain

[full terrace]

Here #strategy message. I'll repost:

JT8-3 basically you need to survive ignition, the crossfire explosion, and the fireballs. There are 2 techniques to counter them:

1. The FRDs technique like this #strategy message. Basically you bait the ignitions with 2 FRDs every 20 secs (Talulah's cooldown is 19 secs), and then retreat. No ignited operators = no crossfire explosion. The fireballs damage can also be shared with your FRDs later.
2. The constant healing technique like this #strategy message and this #strategy message. Basically you use Nightingale's RES buff to survive ignition, crossfire explosion, and fireballs.

[hearty bough]

Well, here's the problem, This account don't have both.

[somber falcon]

who does it have?

[hearty bough]

SilverAsh, NTRK, Ines, Hoshi

[somber falcon]

where other

or guards

this the acc? #help message

[hearty bough]

Yes

[somber falcon]

hellagur then

[hearty bough]

Need E2?

[somber falcon]

idk, probably not

[hearty bough]

S2?

I'll try spawncamping with the old guy then

[opaque kraken]

Just be careful because he's still 1 block, and with having multiple sarkaz buffer, I believe they stack? From defense, maybe hellagay won't kill fast

[hearty bough]

Thanks

[somber falcon]

you can put him below too

so there's more time to kill

[hearty bough]

Idk, if I don't spawn camp it feels like hed die to the casters

[tranquil tree]

Uh projekt red or crownslayer

[hearty bough]

I'll try both strats anyways

[somber falcon]

spawn camp then ig

[hearty bough]

Is this a question? If it is, then my answer is no.

[tranquil tree]

Damn

[hearty bough]

Gravel is way better than both

[somber falcon]

cs still wins bcs stat if you're really need it

[brisk surge]

I really don't see the crown slayer angle

[somber falcon]

only in tanking

[brisk surge]

Even the stall isn't great

[hearty bough]

But what can CS do??? 😭

[tranquil tree]

Look cool

[opaque kraken]

I think gravel should just be fine

[hearty bough]

All her kit is shit

I mean CS

[opaque kraken]

I use it in my run for my kr account she's mainly just to take hits on ice drone and my... Emergency... Blocker on left side when I saw my vulpis fuckin deadge

[lofty sundial]

what is this "window"?

[viral edge]

This is my base the 2 tradings farm like 24k lmd and the factories give me like 16 is there a better way for me to set it up or is that normal?

[tranquil tree]

How though
Isn't she lower rarity
Sorry I'm new

[brisk surge]

rarity doesnt mean shit in this game

[somber falcon]

Gravel s2 gives her shield that can help tank stuff

[hearty bough]

Tbh, I would've liked CS if her S2 "gain shield, taunt enemies then do dmg based on dmg taken to a certain threshold", that would've been a cool gravel upgrade.

[tranquil tree]

Can she block more than 1?

[somber falcon]

No

[tranquil tree]

Damn that sucks

[opaque kraken]

Gravel is like, objectively better than CS when it comes to a bait fast redeploy due to the barrier / shield she gain, she's amazing and much cheaper

I mean cs just fucking suck anyway but wbk

[tranquil tree]

Does this game not give buffs? Or is this just permanent

[somber falcon]

tanking here more specifically means ranged attacks
so block doesn't matter

[tranquil tree]

Ohh

[opaque kraken]

I'd say even cases where her 1 blk is good bc of her S2 where she can stall what's the most threat in there

[somber falcon]

for cs just use s1 if you're gonna raise her
plain and simple but works

[hearty bough]

You don't really use fast redeploy to block enemies tbh, it's just mainly stalling for a bit or baiting strong attacks. Or in the case of Texalt and Yatoalt, helidrop dmg or stun.

[opaque kraken]

I believe you'd gain an epoch where you'll have HP increase bonus and increase likelihood of getting chest

[tranquil tree]

I usually use them to get some hits on the red and black casters

[lofty sundial]

ty, people in #is-station also answerd that 👍🏼

[somber falcon]

idk the levels but upgrade them if they haven't
and build/use the baseslaves

[tranquil tree]

Wdym by baiting strong attacks btw?

[opaque kraken]

Ah alright, sorry for the late reply

[rich plover]

@full terrace Oh right, what about 2nd phase? Nothing special other than DPS her down?

[somber falcon]

example boss hits 200 4 times and then 1000 once
bait the latter with gravel then pull her out

[tranquil tree]

Ohh

[rich plover]

Assuming I've survived the firewall

[hearty bough]

Most of the enemies in the game are programmed to hit the last op deployed. so by dropping a frd, you make them target that frd with that attack.

[tranquil tree]

I don't think I'm at that stage yet

[hearty bough]

You encountered bomb drones already?

They're one of the things you need a bait for, by dropping gravel in their range, they lose the bombs they're carrying that would've bombed your other ops.

[tranquil tree]

I don't think so
Just completed the stage with the mortar soldier

Yeah I'm still really early on lol

[hearty bough]

Mortar soldiers can be baited too. You can redirect their attacks to gravel for a while to lessen the burden of your healers for a short period of time.

[rich plover]

You can also just kill them if they are in range of your FRDs

[hearty bough]

I think gravel can kill them too

[rich plover]

Mortar enemies have nay nay def, so I think it's ok

[hearty bough]

They kinda do small dmg if melee iirc

I meant the mortar btw, they don't do explosive attacks in melee range iirc.

[tranquil tree]

I usually place down PR or CS to kill the mortar for me while my main setup worries about the swarm

[hearty bough]

Also, if you only need bait. Gravel is easily better than CS and Red because she's cheap and has better survivability.

[tranquil tree]

Ic

And it's easier to get more copies in order to make her cheaper right

[hearty bough]

She's cheaper by default because she's lower rarity.

Being cheap to deploy is a big plus for FRDs because you deploy them many times per stage.

[daring swan]

How to beat PV 10?

[hearty bough]

Btw, if you need a 2-block fast-redeploy, there's Yato(the vanguard).

[tranquil tree]

Thanks

[maiden hound]

can you kill lappland

[hearty bough]

Lanehold both sides with Blaze and Zuo Le then focus all you dps on the boss methinks

You do more dmg during Carnavale so make sure your ops have their skills ready beforehand.

[somber falcon]

mlynar makes the attacks ignoreable

[smoky halo]

mlynar + ng 🚬

gogogo

[daring swan]

I get her low then the final wave just kinda gets through all of my units

[somber falcon]

use the slow fireworks

[coarse beacon]

I'm stuck at pv-9. does anyone have a recommendation on how to complete this mission?

[elder flume]

what does your map deploy look like

[glass monolith]

Abuse immortality to not die

[tawdry path]

once carnival is up make sure to pop balloons and route the enemy as usual

[full terrace]

2nd phase ideally you kill her quick before she spawns those flame flowers, but the catch is that you need to be able to survive her 2nd wave of fireballs. Alternatively (if you bring Nightingale with you), you can just destroy the fireballs using FRD and whatnots while buying time for Nightingale to recharge her skill.

[sharp pine]

Dumb question but im curious, who's the best arknights player?

[elder flume]

idk but prob a chinese player

[vocal leaf]

the illusion of a choice

[glass monolith]

Correct choice is abandon run

[tawdry path]

some chinese player who don't record their runs but played alot of IS tourney locally

[wicked minnow]

fellas, i am not gonna lie. crownslayer is not that bad in IS

is5 at the very least

like more useful than a lot of 6*s i can think of at the very least

[pure orchid]

Me

[limber fox]

You are requested to elaborate such outrageous affirmation

NOT U QYURII

[pure orchid]

Its not outrageous youre just a hater

I am the best arknight gamer period (.)

[smoky halo]

its @azure roost

[wicked minnow]

with any of the + stun/freeze duration relics she can perma stun any non-stun immune enemy for the entire duration. up to 3 enemies

[glass monolith]

She sucks because she doesn't scale up from buffs as hard as other people. But at same time she care little about debuffs so double edge cringe

[wicked minnow]

it's kinda nice

[azure roost]

[glass monolith]

Best player in PvE game is hard one because everyone do their own thing and also players specializing in specific niches and then among players with same niche kind of competition for least amount of operators used to clear stage

if anyone know this sc prob know me already

just figure it out

[glass monolith]

Which "there"?

[azure roost]

@limber fox honestly u have shu just use her to handle top for lane holding and get aoe to handle waves on top
middle grab typhon and extra support to damage him

invi lane

just use medic def

or idk what defender u have

[wicked minnow]

what the fuck vigil is fucking broken bro 😭

how is this even allowed bro 😭

[azure roost]

ngl that sc i posted

is very old

[wicked minnow]

vigil s1 solos patriot

[azure roost]

top lane shu degen thorns medic and any aoe
ya is pozy walter white and have extra backup sniper
invi lane is yknow what just fucking grab mudrock

dont bother that fucking lane

focus on ya

[glass monolith]

Relate able Invis strike for like 2400 damage is BS

[azure roost]

i use s2 blitz there

perfect frame skill

or he gonna die

ofc silence drone there if he get damaged

[glass monolith]

Btw reminder - -1 blocks means ranged operators no longer block enemies walking over them

[azure roost]

ye

thats why he abuse it

since sniper get ignored on cm

but focused making top lane good

so u can ignore it

then ya killing

pozy should killed p1 p2 honestly

walter kinda overkill

but ye

[glass monolith]

Does he abuse it yet? I see only your screenshots and I don't see shiet deployed on ranged tiles except 3 in middle

[azure roost]

idk

well thats rosa setup

idid

[shell olive]

Will Lappland Boss p1 just continue indefinitely until I shoot her?

[azure roost]

but ye pozy should be in ranged tile if he gonna use her

then on p2

the deployable typewriter on ya clone

and pozy focusing other ya

thats it

ngl wb ex 8 is so simple

u prob died more on mob leak than the boss

@limber fox

[elder flume]

ye P1 is infinite

P2 is 2hondo s timer

[azure roost]

minus

shoudl i m9 pozy on alt

she been in my m9 list for so long

i kinda forgot

but rn i m9ing cs

so she might kinda be late too

[glass monolith]

Not sure where her S1 could be useful, suit yourself

[azure roost]

so ye

[smoky halo]

s1 poze for afk

🤫

[azure roost]

YA is just pozy and her typewriter

add Walter for ya insult

u should have not a problem
