[brisk surge]

You can sweep bosses with him

[final obsidian]

Yeah that too the sustain and total damage much better

[still vessel]

Ok I will stick to mlynar

But I still want degen

[brisk surge]

Degen to kill boss is a bit more cope

[still vessel]

She’s hot

[brisk surge]

Nothing in stands close to my swimsuit myrtle

🚬

[still vessel]

Does degen have swimsuit

[final obsidian]

She has a cool witch skin

[still vessel]

Man imma have 2 old men on my team now

[brisk surge]

Mlynar is cool as fuck

I'd let him bed me

[still vessel]

His lore?

Idk maybe it’s time I dive in

Are you a whale

[brisk surge]

If I was a whale I would've gotten him

[still vessel]

Ok so dolphin

[full terrace]

If I'm making Low-End Clear for this I'd probably do a Virtuosa carry. Aint no way people can micromanage Roadblocks.

[brisk surge]

I do both

Virt and roadblocks

[still vessel]

Ines in shop in August?

wtf I don’t wanna wait

People said soon I thought June not 3 months away

[brisk surge]

Soon tm

[elder flume]

damn single digit blocks left

would be funny if i can do this map like 4-4

[full terrace]

Yah thats the reason I prefer killing over kiting

[still vessel]

Doesn’t even look hard

It’s like roadblock every 5 seconds

[brisk surge]

You clear it then

[still vessel]

I will

Use your wis and solo it

[brisk surge]

Does he know

[still vessel]

[elder flume]

invis moment

[final obsidian]

Damage resist moment

[still vessel]

Isn’t that what fireworks are for

[elder flume]

that fuse pathing takes like 1.5 mins

[brisk surge]

Does he see how long the fuse is

[still vessel]

I have time

Lots of time

World record longest stage

[elder flume]

i would say i have the record here but i lose against CN

[still vessel]

Idk does lappy s3 do dmg to them

[full terrace]

Wis can solo carry dps but the roadblocks management is hellish

Actually LeoTse96 made a Low-End guide with Wis solo carry but the execution is hell nah

I'll make a safer clear for newbies later

[still vessel]

Who’s the funny guy that does low rarity clears with like 4 ops

[full terrace]

If I were to actively chasing after records, I'd probably have quite a number of them by now 😂

[opaque stirrup]

I love amiya ?

[elder flume]

My records are just me doing dumb things with the old 9999s timer

And then anni 1 dp every 11 real days

[compact river]

any help with early game for stronghold? can't exactly beat Walmart frostnova with t4 units

[elder flume]

Haventt played yet

[compact river]

why can't I pick my own t1/2/3 units

[bleak bison]

What do you guys think

[full terrace]

General questions ask in #help, flexing go to #salt-mines

[bleak bison]

???????

[full terrace]

Read the channel rules

[bleak bison]

I was asking about squad???

[brisk surge]

[bold lance]

If you are getting to boss waves with only t4, you are going too slow

[brisk surge]

Real

[full terrace]

And I just told you general squad question go to #help can you or cant you read?

[brisk surge]

arf getting angry

[compact river]

there's no loss/win streak bonus can't rush

[brisk surge]

[elder flume]

It depends on what stage youre fighting since theres a chance you might not even have enough ranged tiles for all of them
Vulpis Horn looks weak in that squad
Your only arts is basically Lappland and lose if theres a lot of drone swarm with no AA

[bleak bison]

Bro is minimod

[brisk surge]

well you deserved it

[bold lance]

you streak bonus are easier waves and less enemy buffs.

[full terrace]

This dude has been spamming his squad images multiple times fishing for reactions, aint nobody got time for that 😂

This is like the 3rd or 4th time

[brisk surge]

they did that in help chat too iirc

🚬

[full terrace]

Yeah and its annoying

Like who gives a fuck

Most people have better squads and they dont even excessively flex like that

[desert prairie]

Strat should still explain whether a team is good or not based of a blind run approach

Then send them to a more appropriate channel

[full terrace]

I would if their intention was not flexing

Thats not the case bro

So

[bleak bison]

Mf i wasnt even fucking flexing

[full terrace]

Language or I send this directly to moderator

[bleak bison]

💀

[brisk surge]

[full terrace]

Stop pinging me, final warning

[bleak bison]

Ok

[glass monolith]

Is this per person or total ping count?

[full terrace]

😂😂

How was your S stages Minus

[glass monolith]

Didn't start them yet. I am still little sick (better than "probably fucking dead" state of 4-6 days ago) so no braining

[full terrace]

You are gonna love it I'm not gonna lie 🤣

[glass monolith]

I know S-1 is "Me at Monday be like"

[elder flume]

S 1 CM was fun

[full terrace]

S-1 is seriously the most unique stage I have seen in Arknights

[elder flume]

Had to print fast dp

[full terrace]

S-3 is roadblock stalls

And S-4 is basically EX-1 with different pathing

S-2 and S-5 are where the fun at

And I'm waiting for Minus's reaction

[brisk surge]

all my homies hate s2

[tall sierra]

But s2 is just so ez no

[full terrace]

It's easy if you have the units yeah

[tall sierra]

Just need to block the rc bomb car until carnival active

[full terrace]

But Minus is playing a 5 Stars only niche

So I can see him struggling

And it amuses me (sorry Minus)

[brisk surge]

this guy doesnt even know what s2 is

[tall sierra]

Oops sry

Wrong stage

[full terrace]

Low-End probably will struggle yeah

But the stage itself is not that tricky

Spade is actually right about abusing Carnival

[tall sierra]

The most annoying is the bloody beer truck

Aoe -1 block

[dark violet]

nice round 7, I guess I need to change strategies

[full terrace]

I generally play IS without blockers so it doesnt bother me that much (because in high diff, blocking operator often gets one tapped), but yeah for a Low-End attempt it can get very annoying.

[desert prairie]

Wdym fun... this is a total joke

Pun intended

[full terrace]

It's fun for Rain 🤣🤣

[jovial nest]

welp it didn't take long to beat S-4 and S-5

S-2 and S-3 were much much harder

i guess thats what happens when you fucking spam trucks

[wicked minnow]

Heavyrain has 4 block

[neon turtle]

got destroyed

[dark violet]

guess I'm not the only one

S-3 was the hardest yeah

[full terrace]

S-3 can be very easy or very hard

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zuatl4f6y1s&t=2s

[jovial nest]

S-2 was harder

[full terrace]

Depending on your Roadblocks execution

[jovial nest]

S-3 was less hard because i love roadblocks

this allows me to swap exits to stall dangerous waves

while also making the fuse line safe from most enemies to walk on

[brisk surge]

difference is that enemies arent all invisible and have dr

[dark violet]

Ok I'm starting to survive a bit more, trust in the karlan memery

[jaunty hill]

First stage is this and then it hits you with the worst shit on earth

[brisk surge]

its an illusion

[tall raptor]

Can I ask for tips on R8-11?

[frail remnant]

Can anyone help me beat LS-5

[brisk surge]

this isnt kindergarten you dont need to raise your hand

send your units so people can see what to work with

[frail remnant]

ill upgrade the lacking ones for the level

[brisk surge]

generally you want a splash caster for the right side

something like lava and 12f should be enough i think

[frail remnant]

can leonhardt work if i level him up

[manic oasis]

Any idea how to deal with the 3rd stage of the new content? Those damn cars been on my case and can't get the second round of fireworks on time

[brisk surge]

i mean sure leon can work

but its more expensive to raise him

5 star moment

[frail remnant]

so i should upgrade lava then to what level then

[final obsidian]

Lava is good

[brisk surge]

usually e1 max but you can leave her at e1 30 and try that

[elder flume]

Show your roadblocks

[frail remnant]

who should i replace here then

[elder flume]

Whats wrong with it

[brisk surge]

you can replace normal casters

lap2 and amiya

[frail remnant]

ok

[manic oasis]

I tried all sorts of roadblocks but this one seemed good for not letting them trample the flame and also getting fireworks boost or at least I thought but there's so many damn trucks

[brisk surge]

that blocky no good

[manic oasis]

Yeah figured it was bad

When these maps are like puzzles and it doesn't let me steamroll the map with W2

[elder flume]

You have like 30 roadblocks

Its easier to change their end pathing back n forth

Use that as a way to group the cars

[manic oasis]

I thought that might have been a part of it but the trucks come out in two pla-

Oh wait I forget you can yoyo these assholes huh

[elder flume]

Roadblocks also instakill popcorn if you need to

[manic oasis]

What spots would be good for the yoyo strat. Trucka come in from top middle and bottom right I believe

[frail remnant]

umm maxxers what about the drones

[elder flume]

You can follow Arf placements
Blocking either top or bottom depending on enemy location

[full terrace]

Popcorns 😂

[elder flume]

Having stallers like Kafka Ethan Mag Red CS Phantom is pretty godsend

[final obsidian]

Honestly you can prob drop Myrtle and slot Rangers for that stage she not doing much there

[brisk surge]

the defense drones or the normal ones

have a sniper on the left side they should take care of that

[frail remnant]

umm monster mk 2 thats the name of the unit

[brisk surge]

like the damn stall itself?

[elder flume]

Ye

[brisk surge]

wtf?

[brisk surge]

just have your marksman snipers take it out

[elder flume]

Popcorn explode when blocked
Roadblocks contrary to popular beliefs... Blocks.
So they explode
One of the criteria to kill a roadblock is by targeting it which can only be done if its blocked
But popcorn cant target and block when its exploding
So its futile kamikaze

[brisk surge]

i thought you meant this guy

can just be killed

[elder flume]

Nah thats cartman

[brisk surge]

imagine

[elder flume]

Which you can shift cancel to stop them from spawning popcorns

Just depends how good your timing is

[brisk surge]

yeah i dont have the ops for that

🚬

[elder flume]

I think Wild Mane is the cheapest option for it

[brisk surge]

dont have her 💔

[tall raptor]

I seriously need some help? This white dragon is the death of me

[elder flume]

More healers

[final obsidian]

Let it leak for hidden stage

[somber falcon]

Isn't nl record already available?

[final obsidian]

[tall raptor]

Please say your joking

[elder flume]

If you cant handle poison mist stacking then healing is a solution

[tall raptor]

Question is ok to use support on story states, since I heard mats mainly come from events

[dapper hedge]

Saria s3

[worthy blaze]

How does the vs mechanic in the boss work exactly? cuz in laptop's phase 2 by the time it ends and I can actually damage her she teleports past all my operators, screws up the timing completely

[full terrace]

Nah he is not joking, that stage is a healing check stage

[dapper hedge]

#strategy message

Like no joke. Put saria on s3.

[full terrace]

@tidal sedge Rosmo left for triple Flingers?

[elder flume]

You calc the kills youve done during Carnevale
If you win then for the next 20s for PV10 or 30s for PVEX8 Lapp loses DR
Lapp moves every idk 15s i think so the timing to start and end Carnevale is dependant on you to time with her teleport

Stall enemies to make Carnevale longer or let them hit it to end quicker

[final obsidian]

Does Greyy Alt need Mod 3

[worthy blaze]

Oh no I'm talking about pv-s-5

Do I only have to kill the bottom ones?

[tall raptor]

Who should I borrow?

[dark mantle]

not needed
but more damage is more damage

[worthy blaze]

Because people seem to be able to end carnival before I can

[dapper hedge]

No need tbh lol

[tidal sedge]

Mod 1 good enough

[somber falcon]

There's still some stages that you'll likely still need to farm outside events
Otherwise fine tho

[tidal sedge]

Grey casually solos left side Quilon 🥹

[elder flume]

I havent tried S5 myself so idk the full timing but if you want to end Carnevale quicker then letting enemies get close and only using dps skills when Lapp is actually in range is prob viable

[tall raptor]

I'll be saving all my mats for Ines Wisadel and ExujAlter so I won't be building for a while I believe

[unkempt lintel]

wth

[worthy blaze]

Nvm I got it just now xd

Beer really isnt a problem

Cartman placement is top 10 most horrible thing you can do to someone

[jaunty hill]

Pls help

🥀

[willow sun]

mb took me a bit but with your team you can pretty easily just braindead brute force the stage

[elder flume]

Have you been playing catch for S3

[tall raptor]

I finally beat it

Can someone please help me? I keep dying

[full terrace]

How?

[tall raptor]

Talulah

[full terrace]

With that squad?

[tall raptor]

Everyone dies from keeping loosing HP and I don't know how you deal with her

[tall sierra]

Do you have gladia?

[civic bear]

She burn target last deploy

[full terrace]

You bait her ignition if you wanna play it safe

But honestly just kill her

[civic bear]

Ulpi talent himself should tank full tho so he has no worry

Just kaltsit s2

Heals her summon works

[tall raptor]

Who?

[tall sierra]

If u have gladia, ulpi can solo talulah

[civic bear]

Even ulpi s3 should kill tal

[somber falcon]

Jt-2 tal only burns one no?
Pretty easy to circumvent

[tall raptor]

Oh I have her but haven't built her

[civic bear]

No need glad

[full terrace]

Only burns one yeh

[civic bear]

Just use what you have

Ulpi use s3 and then pop from right bam

[tall sierra]

If u dun have her built, just need to support him with heal abit

[civic bear]

just do this and one cycle

you have like 4 other laneholder to handle middle

[full terrace]

It's harder to fail than to succeed with that squad

[somber falcon]

^

[civic bear]

for drones

use yato s3

and just chip away

deploy yato 10 million times

[tall sierra]

Mountain and saria should cover the main lane

[tall raptor]

But Yato is ground

[civic bear]

yato s3

is flying

it hits air

not s2

[somber falcon]

ENhands

[civic bear]

she spins

[full terrace]

Deploy Mlynar and have him schwing schwing the drone

He also taunts the ignition

Eyjaberry healing him

[tall raptor]

Also what about healing

[civic bear]

what is healing

[somber falcon]

Want another flavor? Logos s3 the drone

[tall raptor]

And who goes where the arrow is

[civic bear]

ulpi kills faster

[glass monolith]

Amiya S3 with some bait can rush bomb drone in bottom left

[tall sierra]

Ah right uncle mylnar 100% bait the ignition

So put him near saria or healer

[full terrace]

Bro has Eyjaberry sitting there and asked about healing

[civic bear]

if ulpi doesnt kill well you could just slam yato again or kal or something

its best to burst her

logos also works if you hit from like mid lane

theres a lot of options

[tall sierra]

U got eyja, saria and kal is dat not enough?

[tall raptor]

Is JT8-3 easier?

[willow sun]

no but ngl if you’re struggling this much with 3 or 4 year old content (idk when ch8 released) with that squad, it might be worth the effort to sit down, spend some time, read the boss mechanics, watch the enemy pathing, note your dp, and just play the stage a couple of times first

[tidal sedge]

They have raised their Ops' skill levels right?

[tall sierra]

Ur ops are even e2 lv60 which is more than enough

Jt8-3 need a strong healer during fireball phase

[tall raptor]

No it's just that I'm a returnee

[civic bear]

its different

can call it harder

just because its mechanic that you never seen before

[tall sierra]

U should be doin the event 1st since it offer alot of goodies

Should be doable with ur current ops as well

[grand iron]

can somebody guide me at stronghold protocol?

[tall sierra]

It easy

[dry flame]

any tips ?

[dapper hedge]

its tft/auto chess

[grand iron]

wth is tft

[tall sierra]

Pick fartooth strat,

[dry flame]

i cant win with 7 caster in normal mod

[grand iron]

maybe the reason I got to the final mode of this event might be I got an easy ones

[tall sierra]

If u want ez clear just go like this

2 wis 2 rosa 1 ros

Get sniper set item and aspd item

[dry flame]

i dont have wis / rosa

[mint iron]

you're still running tier 1 ops and they kinda suck real bad

[dry flame]

i think the ice and the halo one is the hardest

[dry flame]

for 7 caster

[tall raptor]

That's done

[grand iron]

for me kamikazer is hard ones

[mint iron]

you don't really need 7 casters, if you're trying to unlock that one strategy you only need to buy them I'm pretty sure

then sell for someone actually useful

[grand iron]

halo is just... fine except that fucking rock thing that able to walk

[dry flame]

so only need it in the bench ?

[tall sierra]

U could run the infamous abyssal team?

[mint iron]

nah you can just sell them after you get them

[tall raptor]

Now I'm just doing story as I need to beat EP 8, thankfully ep11 is actually very easy

[dry flame]

no gladia / specter alt / andeana in support

[mint iron]

I was able to grab 4 new strats at the same time running caster + defenders, you only need 4 of each class on the squad and buy 7 from each class in one run

[dry flame]

oh thanks

[grand iron]

somehow your word make me want to make a new acc and start from all over again

[dry flame]

idk what completed section

[tall sierra]

Hmm weird in my roster gladia and spalter is already ob my permanent list and cant be changed

[dry flame]

so i just have 7 in bench + squad then sell ?

[grand iron]

oh btw, the op list at the event is default?

[dry flame]

yes but you can add 4 new op

[mint iron]

don't think you need them all at once either, just sell them if you don't need them for dps

[tall sierra]

Almost all the abyssal team in stronghold are free to use

[dry flame]

i still dont get it

[mint iron]

sell = more money = more ops anyways

[dry flame]

so i need 7 sniper in one turn ?

[mint iron]

it only tells you to recruit 7 ops from that class, not actually do anything with them

which means you just buy and sell

[tall sierra]

Also once ur team is like complete

Try to find the class item

[dry flame]

so BUY 7 sniper in one section ?

[tall sierra]

Like the elite sniper set

And sniper scope

[mint iron]

buy 7 sniper in 1 entire run, you don't need to have them all at the same time

and have 4 in squad when finishing

[dry flame]

entire run ? i think i buy more than 10 sniper in a run

[mint iron]

did you beat it?

[dry flame]

nope

[mint iron]

that's probably why

[tall sierra]

Dun just go full sniper without a someone to block/slow the enemy for u

[mint iron]

snipers are kinda bad in this gamemode anyways

maybe that's because I don't have rosmontis

[tall sierra]

For sniper to be good u need 2 sniper class item set

[glass monolith]

What is skill of T6 multi hand supporter waifu? I don't have her because i own chalter

Draft Wisadel and Logos for Tier 6, they have an M3 skill there

Ascalon and Chelter for Tier 5, just to slow things down

Maybe this?

[mint iron]

yep, that works

[rich crow]

Too much elemental damage in the challenge mode, my lumian can't handle all...

If possible, I want to clear cm without borrowing any unit

[mint iron]

seems to me that you have the right units to clear it

[full terrace]

Ah you have Wisadel and Ray, point both of them at the boss there. Which part are you struggling at exactly?

[mint iron]

also elemental damage should be healed with the berries, not lumen

[rich crow]

not enough healing

[rich crow]

Yeah but too much e-damage so I just decided to heal normally with lumian

[mint iron]

nightingale might help since burn is arts damage

[rich crow]

Hmmmm, that makes sense

I struggle most on the early stage set up

this is my deployment order: myrtle -> ines (1 skill activate) -> lumen -> ulpianus

[full terrace]

You dont really need Medics over there, boss attacks just bait them, or make good use of Wisadel's Revenant Shadows. The fire dancers shoot them from afar.

Where did you suffer the elemental damage from? Lemme see your Firework setup

[rich crow]

give me a minute

[elder flume]

trying Penance against Tuba and its decent

beeg reflect

[rich crow]

Usually, my gladia + saria can't outheal the burn damage

I tried to place ptilopis down to help but dp problem

[somber falcon]

don't burn them then

you can try this one

[rich crow]

My stratergies for the normal mode were to cut lappalter's hp to half with CE S2, then hit a little bit with logos. Finally use mlynar/logos S3/wisadel/laptop S3 to clear out mobs and boss at well

[brisk surge]

replace it with your units/ similar units

[rich crow]

Thanks, but I don't have virtuosa and eyja alter. I think eyjaalter might be important, because she can heal 2 at the same time

My lumen most of the time can't out heal the arts damage. Maybe I can take your order as a reference and try to playaround with nitingale

[brisk surge]

just swap accordingly

virt can be replaced with arts damage

this uses slow fireworks so it slows lappland's damage as well

less healing needed

i think fire fireworks is bait in boss stages imo

[vale raft]

How to beat PV9? I'm getting spanked. 😭

[brisk surge]

bro what is this roster

[rich crow]

it seems like you really need virtuosa...

[vale raft]

What's wrong with it? 😭

[vale raft]

Noooo. 😭

[brisk surge]

https://youtu.be/HecLnUswQWw

this is my clear

replace tequila with your lappland

[rich crow]

wait, your amiya is not even E1?

[vale raft]

Aren't my other casters better?

[vale raft]

Thanks bro!

[brisk surge]

you should stop spreading your resources like that btw

just level good characters first and then you can slowly branch out

[vale raft]

Are units below E1 even worth using?

[rich crow]

maybe just follow that low end video. About your casters, you have interesting choices. Medic amiya is pretty good, one of the better caster options, but you need to clear chapter 14 for that, so don't focus on her. Passenger and marcille are kind of meh. And listen to other people as well, focus on some, don't spread your resources like that

[brisk surge]

not really

you want units at e1

dps at e2

usually

[dry flame]

https://www.krooster.com/network/lookup/duy6800 need help with cm PV S 2

cant kill the car in time

[rich crow]

don't touch vina victoria and viviana now. They are really expensive to raise, and viviana needs her module (coming in a month) to be good. Vina victoria is an just expensive dps option

[brisk surge]

what are these rosters today

jesus

[brisk surge]

@full terrace do you have a clear for cm s 2

i dont have a easy clear for it

[dry flame]

tried Kyostin but dont have suzuran / virt

[vale raft]

What resources have I been spreading wrong? I prio the units I like that are viable. (So I thought.)

[brisk surge]

just

you have so many characters that are just randomly leveled

[vale raft]

Exu, lappland, etc.

[sharp sun]

Spreading resources halts progress

[brisk surge]

all of them are at like level 30

[vale raft]

Those were characters, I thought were good before I seen all the ops

That's why I stopped leveling them.

Thank yall for all the help!

[vale raft]

I see.

Thank you!

[sharp sun]

Well as long you don't spread your resources too thin it's fine

But prio cheap and effective options

[vale raft]

I have enough Guards I never planned on touching Viv. I want to do Vina but as you said it's expensive. I'm prio, Lapp right now.

She's my favorite character.

So I shouldn't prio Lapp anymore? 😭

[sharp sun]

The guard? Or caster?

[vale raft]

Thank yall for all the help!

[final obsidian]

You can leave guard Lapp at that level

[vale raft]

Guard Lapp was a cheaper strong option early.

[final obsidian]

There are severe diminishing return on E2 stat gain past like level 60

[vale raft]

Caster. 🤣😭

[vale raft]

I didn't know that! Thank you!

[sharp sun]

Maybe build your 3 and 4 stars first

[vale raft]

I wish I had Logos.💔

[vale raft]

Okay. Thank you! Any recommendations for best 3's and 4's?

[sharp sun]

Lappland Alter needs some masteries to remove the horrendous 70 sp cost in her s3

[vale raft]

70!? 🤢

[sharp sun]

It becomes 54 at m3 which much more manageable

Okay. I'll level lower units.

Any that decreases protections?

i need help with pv s 2 cm

[sharp sun]

I barely cleared it my self

But essentially

Virtuosa and Ascalon can make this a lot easier

[dry flame]

i can only get one via support

dont have any one with virt s1m3

[sharp sun]

Okay so get Virtuosa

[brisk surge]

i have s1m3

🚬

[dry flame]

can you add me

[brisk surge]

let me get her module up to level 3

[sharp sun]

She's pretty much a must in this stage

The slowing Ascalon is doing can be done by other operators

[brisk surge]

im so broke

[dry flame]

can you add virt to support

[brisk surge]

done

[final obsidian]

I wish you get some LMD when people use your unit or something

[brisk surge]

imagine ?

that would be awesome

[dry flame]

the car just one shot virt and my healer 💔

[brisk surge]

[elder flume]

Beer still targets Mag at some spots hhm

[dry flame]

pure luck

[glass monolith]

JESUS FUCKING CRIST I HAENT STARTED S YET

[final obsidian]

Beer

[elder flume]

Theyre right outside of Sora range

[brisk surge]

you should

its really fun

[dry flame]

nvm i realized i was doing normal mode

[elder flume]

my strat relies on Waai Fu silencing beer and Sora healing Mlynar

[jaunty hill]

Hey can anyone help

I can level up some unbuilt operator if needed

[lyric dagger]

Does anyone have any tips for Stronghold Protocol? I can’t for the life of me beat the final waves and I can’t even complete normal mode anymore lol

[neat mantle]

Need help with pv-s-3 clear. As low cost as possible. I tried the strats on youtube but they're all on CM so i cant replicate it because their fuse is slower.

[lyric dagger]

Oh wait I just realized you can pick your operators for the higher tiers, maybe that’ll help

[jaunty hill]

@full terrace begging for your help I need the medal set 😭🥀🥀

[elder flume]

is this low enough
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1cUUhYHEuU/?spm_id_from=333.337.search-card.all.click

[brisk surge]

not that video LMAO

[dry flame]

cm mode ?

[elder flume]

normal

[sharp sun]

They really managed to top the last stage of Babel with these s stages

[brisk surge]

i dont remember babel at all

[elder flume]

for CM theres Lapp solo or Ulpi solo

[lilac steppe]

Hei2, quick one, with Civ.Eterna (since she shares HP of ops), will it be better to raise AOE / Chain Healer instead of ST Healer if im building Surtr hospital?

[full terrace]

@rich crow There you go

Thats your squad right? I saw all of them in the krooster you posted

[full terrace]

Which stage are you doing specifically?

[brisk surge]

time for s2 and s3 arf

[jaunty hill]

I can't do S2 and S3 challenge mode and S5 on any mode

I'm literally skill issuing this event

[full terrace]

Oof I really got no time this weekend, not sure if I can make recordings

[brisk surge]

unlucky, ill see if i can do some tbh

[full terrace]

It's okay, one at a time

S2 CM you basically need to protect the fuse, hold on lemme see if I can run you a simulation

[wicked minnow]

https://www.desmos.com/calculator/4bnoarok9p @astral cosmos

[jaunty hill]

I try but I mess up with the trucks towards the end with all strategies I tried

Who designed these s stages 🥀

[wicked minnow]

i did the calcs 2 ways just in case. first way using her crits as a critical multiplier
2nd way was using her assuming that she crits 20% of the time and does normal hits 80% of the time. this is to calculate minimum 5% damage

[full terrace]

Alright gimme a minute

[sharp sun]

Ngl if you don't have any of Ines, Virtuosa and Ascalon in this event is rough. Me personally I somehow cleared all stages except PV-S-5 Challenge mode

[astral cosmos]

looks like mod3 isn't that good

[sharp sun]

Virtuosa is a must in the S stages for an easy time

[jaunty hill]

These are my like built operators

Penance and logos tbh carrying hard

[sharp sun]

Damn I wish I had Virtuosa

[jaunty hill]

I wanna like at least manage to do S2 and S3 before the weekend ends

And then rot my brain at S5 before event ends

[dry flame]

where do you put virt in pv s 2 cm ?

[sharp sun]

This is pv-s-3 my guy

[dry flame]

that map is pv s 2

[sharp sun]

Oh I must have swapped the 2

[glass monolith]

S-1. Can't (or maybe skill shenanigans) be soloed by Lutonada (2 3 block cars reach blue box before fuze)
S-1 CM - Can be soloed by Lutonada....
This game

[sharp sun]

But definitely go the range tile near the blue box

[dry flame]

where to place virt in the map i send

[sharp sun]

I've used 4 block Hoshi to take care of the beer trucks

[sharp sun]

The range tile that is nearest in the blue box

[dry flame]

so dont defend the firework ?

[sharp sun]

You can use other ops there

The path near the blue box takes priority because there's more damage reduction enemies in that lane

[dry flame]

cant even defend the firework using 8 op

[sharp sun]

You don't have Wis'adel?

[dry flame]

no

[sharp sun]

When the festival start just kaboom

[jaunty hill]

Getting that medal set next year guys 🥀🥀

[sharp sun]

Well there's always next year

[dry flame]

💔

i havent even tried pv s 3 normal

[sharp sun]

That's even worse than pv-s-2

[dry flame]

tried some time and dont have enough dps

[sharp sun]

You need to manipulate enemy pathing if you don't have Ascalon

[dry flame]

there is 2 event going and i cant clear any

[neat mantle]

finally finished pvs 3 holy shit that juggling tech is crazy

[sharp sun]

Enemy pathing manipulation for the win

[final obsidian]

That map is funny if you use no roadblock

[dry flame]

shuold i replace virth with ascalon

[wicked minnow]

hi guys is this the place to ask if supah is baiting or is he actually that bad and doesnt know how to use the operators to make a cohesive strategy

doesnt this team absolutely demolish pv-s-4

[jaunty hill]

Robot gaming

[elder flume]

better switch Exu to Ascalon

[dry flame]

im borrowing ascalon or virt

[elder flume]

if your path kills fuse then Virt
if your path activates firework then Ascalon

[dry flame]

wdym

[dark violet]

I think I figured out a strategy

get more snipers

[wicked minnow]

this just dies to some rushes. im pretty sure the sarkaz one or the ice one or the big guys that teleport just kill your units

does andreana deal with those from your end?

[dark violet]

sarkaz gets annihilated so far

the burst from 2 meteorites and 2 meteors is insane with the -def

and then the 3K damage andrea picks the rest

[wicked minnow]

oh damn sick

[dark violet]

sarkaz got ended

[wicked minnow]

did you fight these guys yet?

[dark violet]

no I won too fast

also wrong enemy I think?

[wicked minnow]

the spawn sometimes during sarkaz instead of the chargers i believe

[winged badger]

its one of three possible elites

[winged badger]

Punishers/Boneys/Lancers

[brisk surge]

i failed this one because i dont have masteries nor levels on some characters but you can try it

[dark violet]

ah I see

but yeah, they'd have died just as easily

[brisk surge]

they touched me thoroughly

[winged badger]

Punishers are the worst of the three

[prisma elk]

@viscid mist , I finally got the guard build for autochess, no wisadel no virt, all guards, specialist, and wall of will

[dark violet]

that was pretty crazy

only 12 rounds with low tier snipers

lmao

[winged badger]

my sniper teams never pop off

only medics + defenders works

[mint iron]

Wall of will probably my favorite strat

Gravel + redeploy goes crazy

Like a global range londoner

[wicked minnow]

[prisma elk]

Try it with Surtr

[dark violet]

I just noticed, but it's honestly crazy, aside the sniper set, I barely used any tier 1 items

really low budget easy win

[dry flame]

can you add me and let me borrow the purple hair sniper

[dark violet]

andrea?

sure

[dry flame]

Duy6800#8333

[dry flame]

add it to support unit pls ? thanks

[dark violet]

done

you'll want skill 1 for this

though it depends I guess, I haven't tried s2

[dry flame]

k

[dark violet]

more difficult to use

That's the last battle I did, pretty brutal

[dry flame]

no boss ?

[dark violet]

what boss

this is round 12

the squad crushed it so hard the run ended too fast

[wicked minnow]

:clueless:

what difficulty is this?

acc you might've just beat it too fast acc im not sure

[dark violet]

core

[wicked minnow]

yea

[dry flame]

no way

[wicked minnow]

nice job 🎉

if you take a tad too long it spawns a boss

[dry flame]

im still trying to beat normal mode with sniper to get the

[dark violet]

yeah, I got smashed the last runs. But I was going for slower strategies

[wicked minnow]

one time it spawned a giga buffed Pompeii and it killed everything i had

[dark violet]

debuff sniper strategy is deadly

[wicked minnow]

shu didnt get her skill in time 😭

[dark violet]

ouch

[wicked minnow]

i started running more healers now 🥲

[dark violet]

early and hard with GG could be funny

[dry flame]

i either lose to the lava or the frost ghost boss

no counterplay

[dark violet]

my only regret is that I didn't get fartooth in the pool even though I added her

would've been the perfect fit for the fartooth squad

[wicked minnow]

frost ghost you out heal/tank his damage and block him

he has way too much hp

but he deals fuck all for damage

[dry flame]

he just one shot all

[wicked minnow]

oh uhhhh....

idk i had shu mlynar 2 pitlopsisses

[dark violet]

you probably need to focus on promoting some ops

[wicked minnow]

they just lived everything

yeah promote some ops

[dark violet]

it's a huge deal breaker

[dry flame]

it just all rng so

[mint iron]

I used wall of will to stall boss long enough for poison to kill

[full terrace]

This is S2 CM with your squad, it's a bit messy but you should get the idea

Borrow Wisadel btw, she carries your dps

[dark violet]

trying the AH squad this time

mmh nice

it's likely a harder one because it's near useless until you reach tier 3-4

[winged badger]

and with the caster team, last medal obtained
Just need a decent defender + start rolling out casters early

[dark violet]

I'll really need more ops though...

[winged badger]

now to never touch this mode again

[dark violet]

caster team with wisadel?

[winter stone]

is there 3* ops on this new mode

i came from tft for this specific modes

[winged badger]

I got her randomly from VI thing. She was more of a tag on honestly. Most heavy work was done by logos and muddy+horn stalling

3* ops are tier 1 rolls

[dark violet]

nice, how many rounds did it take?

[winged badger]

15

[dark violet]

mmh

[winged badger]

got lucky with Bob instead of Muddy for Sarkaz leader

[dark violet]

I think meteor really breaks the early balance if you go for sniper squad

[dry flame]

can any one help my position ?

[dark violet]

is your meteorite promoted?

if so, place her right of rosmontis

facing up

and move both one tile to the right

[mint iron]

Think you sell those tier 2 defenders for a medic

Also use that mechanist on bench instead of matterhorn

[dark violet]

looks like an easy win overall

use your items well too

[jaunty hill]

OMG THANKS Imma try it when I'm home

[dark violet]

how cursed is this squad

round 6 with midnight as dps

[manic oasis]

I haven't even touched this mode yet I'm still stuck PV-S-3

[dark violet]

good luck, PV-S-3 was the harder for me

I highly recommend using kaltsit to cheat some kills on the wagons

[manic oasis]

I understand I gotta yoyo the trucks but I can't stop em in time they overwhelm me eventually

[manic oasis]

This is my current squad

[dark violet]

this is what I ended up doing

[manic oasis]

Like maybe a different firework?

What the

Wait Doro is good here?

[dark violet]

doro is crazy good here yeah

her mines will temporize real hard

[manic oasis]

What the hell is this set up hold on

[mint iron]

Big stall

[manic oasis]

Do you keep the first firework or stall for second?

[dark violet]

I only do one

[manic oasis]

How?

Hold on are there balloons on this stage?

[dark violet]

it's slow enough that I get to kill a fair amount while the fuse progresses

[manic oasis]

Or do you stall the fuse so it's slower and timed with the second wave of trucks

[dark violet]

then during the fireworks, doro mines nuke the big pain train

[manic oasis]

I do that and the timing is completely different

Maybe I'm hogging blue box? 🤔

[dark violet]

wait

you're doing the regular one?

[manic oasis]

Yes 🥲

[dark violet]

[manic oasis]

I forgot that's important information

[dark violet]

well that's the same strat, but much easier

CM means you get only one fireworks

[manic oasis]

I've tried even beating it with leaks and nothing man

[pure orchid]

Suzuran so broken for pvs1

[manic oasis]

I have Gladiia combo with that punk that took me to spark and STILL didn't get then got him as a pity break

With his dumbass big hat and badass attire

[dark violet]

gladiia s3 with a block 3 is a pretty good stall for the beer trucks

you can bind the duration of the -1 block

[manic oasis]

I also have Suzu but she's actually E2 unlike Gladia and the other dude

Bind the duration of -1 Block? 🤔

[dark violet]

yeah

it lasts 12 seconds

so the debuff wears off before the truck passes

[manic oasis]

I've never actually used her idk how her stuff works

[dark violet]

ah

I'm a gladiia s3 enjoyer, had a lot of experience with it

[dry flame]

cant win

[manic oasis]

Also in the screenshot you just have a ton of 3 blocks in a snake huh where would W2 go here tho

[dark violet]

w2?

[manic oasis]

Wisadel

[dark violet]

oh

[manic oasis]

And Logos

[dark violet]

sorry, I don't use her so I have no strategy to give for her

[manic oasis]

She's usually click button = win

But unfortunately I have to use my brain here which is exactly why I'm currently in #strategy

[dark violet]

she's also quite anti synergy with dorothy so I have even less reasons to use

because she eats even more tiles

[manic oasis]

Benching W2 is like benching Yalter it feels wrong

Oh Doro is facing right?

[brisk surge]

wait for ccb3

[dark violet]

ah wait, you placed meteor

[brisk surge]

you are gonna bench wis again

[manic oasis]

I just realized the top left is open

[dark violet]

I meant meteorite

[dry flame]

i have 2 tries left

[dark violet]

yeah, you need to replace meteor with meteorite next to ros

[dry flame]

?

good enough .

[dark violet]

can move meteor left of chalter now

she's a bit too far otherwise

[dry flame]

worked

saria some how survial

[dark violet]

and stormeye might be better than exusiai here? need to check the damage values

cheers

[dark violet]

yeah, she kills the small wagons

[dark violet]

and yeah, I would alternate openings

[manic oasis]

Which skill for Doro

I don't got the chips for E2 Gladiia atm so I'ma try Suzu maybe her S3

[dark violet]

almost always s3

and she works really well with suzuran yeah

[manic oasis]

I apparently had S2 as default

[dark violet]

her s3 mines slow, so it triggers the debuff from suzuran

[dark violet]

both s3 on get crazy

[manic oasis]

I just realized you have Summer Hoshiguma damn

[manic oasis]

Triggers the what

[dark violet]

suzuran makes slowed enemies take more damage

[manic oasis]

Sorry I turn off my brain sometimes playing this game I really shouldn't

Oh I see

[dark violet]

gives fragility

[manic oasis]

There's just so many lil things in this game that's it's hard to keep everything straight

Where would I place Suzu

[dark violet]

if I had more space in my squad, I would likely use suzu too

[compact river]

is there that much of a difference between non elite and elite ops for stronghold?

[dark violet]

I use her in IS instead

[dark violet]

promotion? yeah it's huge

[compact river]

don't really see the point in getting 3 copies

[manic oasis]

A crime I didn't have Doro alt skin equipped

[dark violet]

you get module, higher stats

[compact river]

I cleared core without any elites

yeah but it isn't that much of a difference isit

[ember epoch]

What strategy is best for Core Protocol?

[compact river]

cuz without it's just e2 lv1

[dark violet]

depends on the ops you use I guess

[ember epoch]

Been using Insider Intel on most runs

[dark violet]

if you spam broken ops, promotion won't matter as much

[dark violet]

no idea, but sniper squad was an easy clear in 12 rounds

[ember epoch]

I just can't seem to survive up to Phase 10, since RNG keeps giving me bad units

[compact river]

the enemies you face are very important

[ember epoch]

I keep relying on Arts, my only issue is the operators in the gamemode have barely any good arts operators...

[compact river]

lateranao and kjerag enemies are harder imo

[dark violet]

requires a tweak in strategy yeah

[compact river]

just reroll if you get them

[ember epoch]

Do I rush to upgrade my barge, or take it slow?

[compact river]

rush as much as you can while buying the ones you get from insider intel

[dark violet]

depends on what you have

[ember epoch]

also, should I reroll the maps I get?

[dark violet]

if you go for sniper squad, you want to get tier 2 asap for meteor, then it's more interesting to have more duplicates before each tier upgrade

[ember epoch]

I really hate the airflow map

[dark violet]

airflow was my easy win

[compact river]

airflow map is the easiest lmao

[ember epoch]

What is the strategy on Airflow

[dark violet]

can't think of an easier one tbh

[languid thistle]

have you guys figured out which defense strategy is best

[ember epoch]

Do I place my snipers downstream or something

[wicked minnow]

hoolheyak is pretty nice

[dark violet]

[languid thistle]

are the maps random or preset

[compact river]

pick insider squad, stall for the first 5-8 rounds, rush barge, caster/sniper on bot and left lane

[compact river]

there's like 4 maps

[ember epoch]

i think the worst map is the one where the center is disabled for ground units

[dark violet]

yeah it's brutal

[compact river]

that map + lateranao ranged dudes is instant rip

[dark violet]

anyway, AH squad is quite bad so far

[ember epoch]

You're literally at a constant disadvantage since snipers will just gun down your ranged operators

[compact river]

ah max HP is fine cuz the ops are good

karlan trade is worse imo

[dark violet]

really?

I thought it was actually broken

[languid thistle]

this map is awful holy shit

[dark violet]

with 2 kjera, I would annihilate stuff

[ember epoch]

is going for Arts worth it

I mean casters

[compact river]

with 3 kjera they still do no dmg

arts is fine

snipers are fine too

[compact river]

probably just enemy diff

[dark violet]

ah yeah

with sarkaz prob give up

or get silverash

🥹

[compact river]

I just go sniper and caster equipment

[white slate]

Gemini is OP, get it

[manic oasis]

Which Suzu module should I get?

[dark violet]

the one that boosts her fragility

[manic oasis]

This isn't help but it's for the stage I'm struggling on

[brazen night]

still no ulpianus on my pulls

dang

[manic oasis]

Gotcha thanks

[white slate]

Level Ulpian he's good on most game mode

[languid thistle]

what does this mean

[dark violet]

+20% atk and def, repeat for each redeploy

[brazen night]

true, man carried me on IS

[languid thistle]

like if I sell the op and give the item to someone else it gains a stack?

[dark violet]

no

[compact river]

good for fast redeploys but not that great because you're using a slot on them

[white slate]

He one shot chest on IS and can tackle spine

[dark violet]

for the battle

[compact river]

they need to die and be redeployed in the same battle 4x

[languid thistle]

oh is the respawn speed based on redeploy speed and counts as a redeploy?

[jaunty hill]

Omg tysm it worked mind helping me with S3 cm and S5 normal/cm whenever you got time?

[languid thistle]

makes sense

[white slate]

Yes

But mostly redeploy is not a good strat

Just don't get breached

[languid thistle]

yeah sounds awful

oh boy

[white slate]

Def +1/2 medic or a lot of CC

For Lancer I think we must spawncamp then

I haven't gotten the sarkaz with lancer

[languid thistle]

I wanna go left but Haste sounds insane

[compact river]

sarkaz lancer shouldn't 1 hit most units even with max charge

[white slate]

The enemy in the packs are random

[dark violet]

bad placement

you want to be top

[languid thistle]

guess I'll move top

[white slate]

Left is pretty much hool pasive

[manic oasis]

@dark violet thoughts?

[languid thistle]

I already have hool

[manic oasis]

Oh pretend Suzu has her module equipped

[white slate]

Yeah

Pick right

[dark violet]

should be decent, do you have a support pick already?

[manic oasis]

Oh and Mudrock has S3 for slow

[dark violet]

if not you can borrow my dorothy

she's max power

[languid thistle]

why is this mode so obsessed with karlan trade

[dark violet]

ah wait, you borrow kaltsit?

[manic oasis]

I try doing it without cause idk why just like so I can show the stage who's boss I guess

[dark violet]

ah kk

[manic oasis]

Oops forgot to equip mine

Uh oh who do I replace

[white slate]

The only good karlan trade ia gnosis

[manic oasis]

Maybe I can swap Cuora for a support Defender

[white slate]

Double of him is a lot of freeze uptime

[dark violet]

yalter seems useless here tbh

[dark violet]

karlan effigy with double pramanix could be fun too

[languid thistle]

like this?

[manic oasis]

I thought she could try to pick popcorn stands during fireworks but if you say so

[dark violet]

back down one tile

though it's more relevant later

[languid thistle]

but then lapp won't hit the bottom tile

[manic oasis]

I love SuzuMom on this btw she deletes those dumbass tuba dudes

[dark violet]

won't matter, the enemies will all be upfront

[dark violet]

if it's not CM yeah that could work

[languid thistle]

is kjera karlan trade

[dark violet]

yes

[white slate]

yea

but not good i think

[languid thistle]

I got this thing might as well use it

[white slate]

you can sacrifice a few rounds

level up asap

[compact river]

unless the enemies have the explosion x2dmg buff then you're dead in 2 rounds

[languid thistle]

I'm so glad I put her in V instead of VI

[white slate]

depends max hp lost is 20

[compact river]

insider intel HP is 30

[languid thistle]

hmm

[white slate]

oh yeah

[bold lance]

Seems cooked. 0 aoe.

[compact river]

what is that melantha

[languid thistle]

she's the main character

[dark violet]

mmh, let's see how things go

[dark violet]

my AH try might not be hopeless

[white slate]

ulpian doko?

[dark violet]

[compact river]

you're cooked

[dark violet]

trust in gemini andrea

[white slate]

gemini is a must pick

[dark violet]

hey not bad

[white slate]

40% is huge, free double equipment

[languid thistle]

not much choice huh

[white slate]

saria

• 1/2 medic with backing of dps

[dark violet]

actually demolished this round, double pramanix go, perfect counter to the prisoners

aspd debuff op

[compact river]

more like prisoners are the easiest enemies

literally no ranged units

[dark violet]

the slugs are pain

[languid thistle]

is manticore any good in this

[white slate]

on some maps

early game

[dark violet]

I have prisoners and lateran btw

[compact river]

I have ascalon on t5

[white slate]

3 of the same damn

free 5 star

[compact river]

laterano will destroy you in 5 secs

[dark violet]

double gladiia 🤩

[dark violet]

bet?

[white slate]

double washing machine

[compact river]

unless spectre activates skill first

[dark violet]

specter skill doesn't matter much here

[languid thistle]

I hope these stack lol

[compact river]

then u might stand a chance until the laterano trucks arrive

[dark violet]

let's see

[languid thistle]

lapp carry let's go

[full terrace]

Sure gimme a minute, my hands are kinda full atm 😅

[jaunty hill]

Sure npp

[languid thistle]

I got wrecked by the dogs

[dark violet]

alright yeah, the whale hunters are painful

[languid thistle]

surely you go wealth

[white slate]

training

[compact river]

I go wealth always

[white slate]

better long term

[compact river]

dmg is plenty at this point

[white slate]

can insta kill enemies in 1/2 turn

[compact river]

training is good too

[glass monolith]

By time i roll Training all my enemies already in 1 round to death range

[compact river]

real

[white slate]

it depends

some enemies can change frequently

some have the lp per round
