strategy

[narrow pendant]

Its like, bring the welfare ops to 10 fights, do 2 endings, reach like, d7 or d10

[azure roost]

i prob didnt touch is5

for 5+ months now

i cant remember

[narrow pendant]

Itd be more funny if they made it like, "do triple ed alters"

🥹

[azure roost]

see i fuckign died on first floor

god i still hate this ice spider floor 1

such a shit early stage

[distant bough]

What start are you doing ?

[azure roost]

@narrow pendant my cn is5

havent touched it kekl

i forgot all shit

[rich plover]

I gave up on thinking, I'm deploying Heisenburg

[azure roost]

lol

[misty fossil]

bro how long did you take to max level IS 2 3 4

on 2 accounts

[azure roost]

you forgot something

4 account.

lets just say yes

[south spindle]

Probably a few weeks of on and off grinding

IS2 is the most painfully slow

[azure roost]

plus i been playing long enough

i just ignore is5 been busy

[misty fossil]

just a few weeks of on and off? recently starting IS2 after ignoring IS for so long and it felt like forever just to reach shalem

[distant bough]

The higher the difficulty, the more points you get

Also you'll get better
=> more runs get to the end
=> more points

[limpid ore]

more relic more points

more fight more points

[distant bough]

And most players will try to get endings, which isn't optimal if you strictly want to get all rewards, you could just grind ed1 (which isn't hard)

I know for a fact I would have more points if I hadn't choked ed4 like 10 times already

[remote perch]

sounds like skill issue smh

[azure roost]

skill issue

[distant bough]

It is

On ed4 boss stage rn knowing I have absolutely no chance of winning

One wisadel and a dream

[narrow pendant]

Hope dies last

Unless its the hope u spent on ops

🥀

[sly drift]

Bro lookin fine af. Can't help but m3 him. Am I insane chat?

[scarlet fulcrum]

This one very dominance, and sounds more like 80 ish song. But the song is good

[surreal star]

dw i did the same 🥹

[haughty flower]

[rapid junco]

Guess what, right after that is "beginning autumn"
The vibes getting stronger

Damn, it's translated as autumn moods gg yostar

[scarlet fulcrum]

Thats quite thematic ig 👍

[hoary rover]

Global carry ah team.

[vocal leaf]

I literally started playing arknights because that skin

[south spindle]

You just learn what works and kind of just spam it

Most IS you indeed get good enough to know what you need to beat an ending so you can also minimize combats to save time

Especially because the highest difficulty for max score is usually not that bad

[lusty tapir]

When building a team can it a mixture of all roles or should there be specific amount of roles for each?

[wicked minnow]

it doesnt matter as long as you beat the stage

it depends on the strength of your ops obviously

if you are new it would matter more but you are looking for ops to help you beat the stage more than you are for roles specifically

[lusty tapir]

Ohh ok thanks U man yes I'm new thanks for Ur help @wicked minnow

[wicked minnow]

does anyone know how the slime spreads the blight in shu event?

[sly drift]

Well yes. You kill the creature on the platform that connect two areas

[lapis hornet]

when it died the hitbox touched both bot and right tiles

ez answer

[sly drift]

If you kill the enemy on the platform while blocking. It somehow spread blight on the side of the blocker (enemy considered reaching the blocker tile)

[lapis hornet]

that's because block hitbox is a circle

and enemies are never perfectly centered in modern ak

by design

so when you block their hitbox will touch defender tile

[full terrace]

Yah what cake said, it's the hitbox

[scarlet fulcrum]

cake dalao

[wicked minnow]

never studied this event's mechanics

[sly drift]

Ffs this S-3 is such a troublesome stage

Very well designed stage ngl

Mid to late game Big rats will destroy the platform and now all farmland on the middle are connected. The filth mob will somehow ALWAYS make their way to these middle farmland and dies there to spread the blight.

Blight are either spread even further by those spitting enemies or absorbed by Miasma to one shot any blocker.

...Neat.

[wicked minnow]

trapmaster deployable work for the pumping station huh

[sly drift]

It does? Haven't tried it

[wraith turtle]

guys im stuck on hs-9 i cant auto it an i need rma

[teal moon]

have you built anyone else?

[wraith turtle]

not rlly

I was considering maybe getting sash's mod

[teal moon]

do you have any defender that isn't maxed noir corn?

[proud bluff]

Well your first issue is tunnel vision on e2ing/module some units instead of spreading ressources

[wraith turtle]

no but i can level some

[teal moon]

get a squad of full e1 lv40 first

[wraith turtle]

even gravel?

even arcehtto?

[proud bluff]

I assume you didn't finish building your base slaves either ?

[teal moon]

can you show your defenders quickly?

[teal moon]

leave her unraised imo

[wraith turtle]

[vital arrow]

why do you assume they listen to our advice

[wraith turtle]

i was told to get zuo's mod first then sash

[vital arrow]

this is like the 5th time this month we told them to raise their base slaves

[proud bluff]

No you were told to raise base slaves and e1 40 your team lol

[vital arrow]

because every single time they went to #help
'raise your base slaves' always shows up

anyways their strat now hinges on zuo le

[proud bluff]

Yep i alone must've said it at least 4-5 times
I also remember a few people, me included, telling you to not tunnel vision zuo e2

[wraith turtle]

ill do that soon enough

[vital arrow]

you mean

never

[wraith turtle]

in like 2 gdays i need me this rma first

[proud bluff]

you're just doing whatever you want and not listening to advice, i also told you to send a recording of what went wrong, but we're left guessing what happen, how you use zuo, etc

[vital arrow]

I dont want to keep harping on this but your squad is literally just zuo le and tequila

[radiant mesa]

beast

[vital arrow]

theres literally no one else to work with

[wraith turtle]

ill try to record a run

[teal moon]

tried to tank the sui with noir corne, he exploded

[proud bluff]

not a full run, just zuo soloing the boss

[teal moon]

no need, we already know the problem

[teal moon]

we are just watching him explode lol

[proud bluff]

inb4 we press zuo when full life and that's the issue

[wraith turtle]

i dont

I let sui smack him first then i use his s3 when he is under half health

[teal moon]

use it before so Zuo Le gets the barrier

[proud bluff]

well no need to record then
you don't have ptilo ?

[wraith turtle]

no

[vital arrow]

most liekely unraised

[wraith turtle]

i started in nov before they made all thos ebase changes

[proud bluff]

well ptilo would have fixed your cycling issue

[wraith turtle]

really? how?

[proud bluff]

Her talent is 0.3 (0.15 e1 iirc) sp per second for auto rec

[wraith turtle]

[vital arrow]

she wont help much

zuo le is designed to work alone anyways

[wraith turtle]

I should just farm with supports and tinytask it shouldnt i

[proud bluff]

Sure but it doesn't work there

Pretty sure you can still clear it with your squad

[wraith turtle]

Does silverash count?

[teal moon]

can you send your roster sorted by level? Ignore the lv1 one, we just need to know if there are some who we can work with

[south spindle]

Put 20 levels on Silverash its pretty much free 🥹

[wraith turtle]

sure give me a se

😔

Should i just farm 2-5 instead

[teal moon]

I'd farm rock at least on hs-7, but wait a moment

[vocal leaf]

what if he gets gladiia e2 mod3 and borrow ulpi, and that’s basically auto deploy with extra steps

[vital arrow]

bold of you to think they ahve the resources

[vocal leaf]

yeah

[wraith turtle]

who is gladia

nvm

[proud bluff]

Suuure you just need to e2 mod3 gladiia without ulpi, instead of using those ressources for your team

[vocal leaf]

under tides free 6star

[wraith turtle]

is she good is the thing

[teal moon]

we're solving a big issue with an even bigger issue. The problem is his tunnel vision on e2 and lack of resources since he doesn't raise base slaves

[teal moon]

ignore it, trust me

[proud bluff]

No this is like fixing a broken handle by drilling a hole in the door

[wraith turtle]

ill just raise my base slaves man

[proud bluff]

isn't kroos2 lappy and teq enough for the bottom lane ?

With a medic somewhere

[teal moon]

btw, my SA with 3 e1 medics can stall the sui boss

but the problem is the level

[wraith turtle]

tequi cant hold for long

[teal moon]

mine are all raised and I can't simulate sth like SA lv20

[wraith turtle]

and lapp is too weak and gets overwhelemed even with silence drone

[proud bluff]

Yep everything raised on my part too and i don't have an alt

[teal moon]

Tequila job isn't holding

[wraith turtle]

so i use sash 2 tiled behind tequi so i can use his skill safetly

[proud bluff]

well that's why you use the three of them together

[wraith turtle]

i do

But one of them gets a spear in the face even if i spam bait

cuz sui even if he is in the separator current tile things, still turns the water polluted,, cuz he has to get near zuo

its fine guys, i can live without rma for the moment

[south spindle]

nope, manually farm

punishment for not playing better

RMA doesn't get easier to farm

🚬

sanity wise not difficulty*

[teal moon]

maybe i found a way to make SA s2 survive but I need to test it more

[wraith turtle]

its fine, ill just grind manually

[proud bluff]

I mean, work on it a bit more, the stage really isn't that hard, grinding it manually seems like an overreaction tbh
there's no reason bottom lane eat a spear when they shouldn't have dealt damage to the boss

[teal moon]

this shit seems to work

[wraith turtle]

ohhh righhttt i can deploy fang back there

it could make spamming bait easier

[teal moon]

the setup is the same, you just need first to deploy Corn to deploy the flying things and then deploy Tequila on the bottom right quadrant in the middle to kill the 4 amalgamtions (i don't remember their names)

only thing is that my SA is lv69 and the medic used were e1 max level

you can work around that probably

[wraith turtle]

did it work tho

[vital arrow]

it worked for them

[vocal leaf]

if you don’t mind to farm manually you can just borrow ulpi, SA takes care the other lane easily

ulpi doesn’t need gladiia, a couple of healers fix it

[wraith turtle]

alr ill try the way jj did it

tho he delayed the sui so imma have retreat zuo early

ok im getting close

I DID IT

[noble hollow]

farming stages manually sounds like human torture ngl

[teal moon]

atp he should just borrow Zuo Le since he doesn't need anything else

[teal moon]

auto?

[wraith turtle]

it works well

[teal moon]

happy to know

[wraith turtle]

it targets silence like it originally did the spear

Tysm jj im infinitely greatful

ill raise my slaves when i get liked 50 rma

[teal moon]

hoping I won't catch you again with that roster

[wraith turtle]

haha wydm as in leveling?

[teal moon]

build base slaves and forget about mod/masteries

and full squad to e1 lv40 before another e2

[vocal leaf]

no, the point of ulpi is that is literally just deploy and forget like an auto, zuo leo requires constant skill activation, that is tedious for manual farming

[wraith turtle]

yeah, i will get my priorities straight

[teal moon]

the problem with ulpi is that it seems he needs multiple healers, if you want to manual farm just use Zuo Le since he doesn't need one

since you're doing manual atp no need to spend resources on medics

[teal moon]

you're on my watchlist

[wraith turtle]

haha yea i learnt my lesson this time

[vocal leaf]

well i saw he had silence, and actually one would be fine, ulpi actually counters the poison water like he does with haze

[glass monolith]

Unless you poison water so much that he melts

[wintry gulch]

he's fine with any pollution as long as you get s2 active iirc

[vocal leaf]

yeah he can’t die in hs9, i dunno about ex or s

[wintry gulch]

at the very least if you have gladiia and s2m3 sustain isn't an issue in any stage (except maybe s 4 since i havent done it yet)

[teal moon]

the guy was already able to auto the stage with SA s2, let's move on

[vocal leaf]

why? we are just talking about whether ulpi is able or not to survive

[rugged lava]

Are there some one here who tried HS-s-4 CM without ling? Meta dps Wisadel/Logos/ Virtuosa are more prefered if possible

[full terrace]

Plenty of people do that

You dont really need Ling

[rugged lava]

anyone already upload one here? need tag

[vocal leaf]

you should be able to find one video in youtube

but idk if with wis/logos

[vocal leaf]

https://youtu.be/7nmaq0H8c2w?si=8o4fh8Zqe6dorkvs

https://youtu.be/Apzlnd82E_E?si=ZhzjV29sYNDfDSJk

that one from even debut, no wis/logos back then

[full terrace]

HS-S-4 CM in case people want it

It's not low-end btw

[vocal leaf]

oh there’s a video doing something similar but logos instead of lapp, fully afk

at least you’re pressing skills

do people really follow those clears? i hope not, what a way to play

[narrow pendant]

Youd be suprised how lazy people are

[rugged lava]

what does this actually do?

[dapper hedge]

Needlework is the red spear skill

Its on the boss description

[rugged lava]

you mean its ranged attack on 2nd form? does it mean it can cast the ranged attack more frequent? (lowered threshold)

[scarlet mortar]

it only casts when the water is dirty enough

so it still won't cast the attack if the water's clean

[full terrace]

Watch this and jump to 1:48 #strategy message

Thats the Needlework

And look how hard it hits Ines

Basically the CM condition is that the boss will use this skill more often if the farmland is blighted

[rugged lava]

i see

[rugged lava]

finally, i did it with logos mountain exusiai strat again

[full terrace]

If it works it works 😂

Technically it's the same boss just with different pathing

Iirc stats are the same

[scarlet mortar]

if you make it waste its shots then it cleans up the water for you

good boss

[narrow pendant]

Call it a good boy

[sly drift]

How come this simple stage almost drive me insane.

How come a stage with only rats can be this annoying*

[narrow pendant]

Rat power

[haughty flower]

Oh wow, the stage is remarkably clean

[narrow pendant]

I rmb trying for like over an hour ling solo this stage during debut

Then i just trued normal run and di it first try🥹

[haughty flower]

Skillish

[elder flume]

i see 3 holes

[haughty flower]

You know what they say about when there's holes.

[sly drift]

Let's goooo.. Done Ex-8 too

I'm telling you Franka is goated

[haughty flower]

https://youtu.be/6GHFfEh7V3M?si=ZnmZLlXI1dcJFbDR
@unkempt mirage

Remember that if an opponent is within or very close to a roadblock when you place it, they will break it.

[remote perch]

Couldn't you just send it at #help when you're just going to be sending a vid

[haughty flower]

I like to try and get others in the habit of heading here if they want a strat, even if it's just going to be a plug from YT.
If it's wrong I'll stop immediately, just lmk why and I'll quit it.

[remote perch]

It's not really wrong, just wondering

[haughty flower]

Just wanna build less bad habits.

[remote perch]

Faer enough

[unkempt mirage]

Ok time to promote my 4* tanks I guess. Thank u

I tried that roadblocks formation as usual but kept getting overran

[haughty flower]

If your guards are good enough they can also work.

[unkempt mirage]

I can try with degen

[haughty flower]

Sure, if you're really stuck you could try just borrowing an extra blocker. Technically wis'adel works, but learning the basics now saves you a bit of pain later, yah?

[unkempt mirage]

[full terrace]

4-4 just borrow a Wisadel

[rapid junco]

Damn bro, shaw got power creept

[scarlet mortar]

shaw doesn't solo CM unfortunately

also technically she isn't the cheapest solo

[haughty flower]

Terra Research Commission my goat

How broken are flingers

[distant bough]

Depends

Usually, pretty bad, Wisadel being the exception

In is5, absolutely goated

[stone dawn]

Level 4-10 is a pain

[rapid junco]

What that's again?

[elder flume]

FN

[rapid junco]

She got deleted by Manny ops now hmm

Welp, idk bro's roster

[elder flume]

its mostly E2 ticket on Lapp or Teq > borrow Wis or Yato or Feater or Mlynar or Exu or degen

[rapid junco]

Exu are bare enough, tho you need timing it

You just need to care middle left lane and not let blocker freezed

Welp, it's can be cleared by Wis borrow
But for fun try swarz s3

[elder flume]

Pot 1 mod3 S1M3 Yato

Deletes through 1.5 hp bar in 1 deploy

Ela

[rapid junco]

E1 catapult

[narrow pendant]

Not our fault we cant e2 her Ia :realmad:

[vapid sluice]

Wait... Is this a clear guide or just chara showcase?

[elder flume]

why cant a showcase be a guide

[vapid sluice]

Fair point, but I thought it's just showcase as in, without demo/stage

If it is, can I ask for the link? I might need help about EX stages cause I'm a bit lazy 😪

[elder flume]

arkrec website

can search throughh every stage

not the best since you have to manually insert for it to be listed but its a good amount of strats to look through

[vapid sluice]

I mean, at least there IS some...

Is there a filter in case if you don't have the chara in there?

[rapid junco]

[elder flume]

not really

arkrec is a trophy website

it searches for records

[vapid sluice]

Alright, I'll sort it myself then

[rapid junco]

Bro should learn moon rune and dive bilibili

[vapid sluice]

I did get some guides from bilibili

But, since I just see they actually name the OP in there, maybe it would be easier to filter

[sly drift]

Is it just me or S-4 boss fight much easier than Ex-8

Like.. too simple. there's no depth unlike Ex-8.

Even S-2 or S-3 are harder

[narrow pendant]

Way better map id say

[sly drift]

I'm disappointed. Ex-8 and S-3 map design are ingenious

S-4? Bleh

[sly drift]

Better?
S stages are supposedly be as chaotic as it could get.

[scarlet fulcrum]

Its just bunch of trash and catwalking boss

[grizzled thistle]

How do I beat HS-EX-8?
https://www.krooster.com/u/axure

[sly drift]

Do you want easier way or hard way

[grizzled thistle]

Easier mate

I've probably did this stage's CM for at least 15+ times by now

I'm running out of irl sanity

[sly drift]

Easier Way is just borrow broken shit like Wisadel and Logos

[grizzled thistle]

Is Lappland alter considered broken?

[sly drift]

Find Wisadel/Logos support then go find guide or something.

[sly drift]

Not really.

[teal moon]

good for general content, far from broken

[grizzled thistle]

Thanks I done it

Logos is indeed broken

[sly drift]

[stone dawn]

I did it i won against frostnova

[narrow pendant]

Good job
Now youll just have to do it again and shes stronger

:ya:

[elder flume]

Spoilers

[eternal ibex]

holy shit i cant jt8-3

[maiden hound]

just wis it

[eternal ibex]

i tried

im still stuck

[glass monolith]

JT8-3 was most amount of pain and suffering I experienced in this game when not using guides.... Outside IS3

[elder flume]

#strategy message

[lilac steppe]

Try borrow nightingale than Wis for that stage

[glass monolith]

When I did stage originally I gained PTSD from constant boss skill baiting (I will cheese it with tactician vanguard pet last deployed + pet retreat if they ever bring that shit again).
Also stacked most of my operators on middle line so I had to tank only 1 row of fireballs, and coped a little Guardmiya S1 dodging

[eternal ibex]

why is my wisadel dying at the start??

[elder flume]

Show

[eternal ibex]

join vc?

[elder flume]

Sure

You didnt let her walk to Gravel tile

[eternal ibex]

yep that was waffle

is it bc im replacing the gravel

[elder flume]

Partially

If youre blocking fireball then block the top

[eternal ibex]

bc like in the video, wisadel doesnt even take damage

[elder flume]

Wis avoids fireball on her own

[eternal ibex]

like at all

[elder flume]

That is the point of camo yes

[eternal ibex]

but mine is dying still

and idk why

[elder flume]

Ye dont replace Gravel

Atleast let her die

[glass monolith]

Is she igniting the thingy and then explodes burns which spread burn on camo units because WHY NOT?

[elder flume]

Ye

Shes not attacking gravel > attack animation doesnt start > she ignites instead

Oh wait

Yea i think my run did remove that shadow

The burning one

[eternal ibex]

is that why?

i finally get why stamina is called sanity in this game

[elder flume]

Wao i forgot to write about it

[glass monolith]

And that's why we have 30 daily free tries of this shit

[eternal ibex]

do i just get rid of it asap

[elder flume]

After 2 shots you can remove

[eternal ibex]

huh. i thoguht those were like permanent

ive been running down on my sanity

[elder flume]

Use 1x speed more

[eternal ibex]

yes sir

[elder flume]

You can drag ops out in pause mode btw

[eternal ibex]

omg i did it

it was the stipid shadow thing

[elder flume]

Retreat after 2block enemy die

[eternal ibex]

i havent like watched anything past this yet lol

[elder flume]

Setup the medic n blockers

You dont really have a 2nd frd after Gravel

Tho yeah thats essentially phase 1 done

Phase 2 is just redeploy Wis face down and kill her the same way

Since there will be another situation where you will be removing shadow again after it gets ignited

[eternal ibex]

dang everyone dying

[elder flume]

Thats why 2 frd is recommended to bait fire

Rip no CS

Jaye Yato combo it is

[eternal ibex]

do i have to level them

[glass monolith]

Or more cursed tactician vanguard pet retreat

[elder flume]

Yato needs level 30

Do u have Beanstalk tho to do tactician kekw

[eternal ibex]

i dont think so

[elder flume]

Ye Yato it is

So in that phase 2 start i setup Teq + 2 blockers with 1 being Gummy so she heals Teq since my Sussuro cant reach him

Saria should suffice to replace Gummy

Ptilo can replace Sussuro

Saria uses S1

Remove Silence Click for Yato Jaye prob

[eternal ibex]

good lord this mission

[elder flume]

Kroos can kill the right side eggs

[eternal ibex]

who should i replace

with

[elder flume]

Block with Lapp if you have to
Tho if you let her walk doesnt she still die

Ye she dies

You want to deploy all of left side immediately

Then 2 frd as last

Before she revives

Or dont put medic yet so you have dp

Wait for burn then retreat
Then finish left side

Myrtle then Sash

[eternal ibex]

oh

[elder flume]

Its fine

Bait again

[eternal ibex]

where did he go

[elder flume]

Lol no dp so he left

[eternal ibex]

😭 i should have looked at his kit

i bait mrtyle?

[elder flume]

Uhh you dont have any dp to do anything tbh

Chalked run

[eternal ibex]

ok

at least i have better idea now

[elder flume]

Put Jaye after the other rdp so he doesnt use dp much

Tbh turning my guide into a youtube vid so every action is slowmo is prob better huh

[eternal ibex]

huh

what jus thappend

[elder flume]

She low rolled her crits

[eternal ibex]

amazing

this game is so fun

and cool

[elder flume]

Shadow not retreated

[eternal ibex]

oop bad inputs

that too

didnt know space did 1x speed

...

[elder flume]

Hmm using another blocker is prob better then

Removing rng by making her swing another time

[eternal ibex]

aight

who am i sacking

[elder flume]

Lapp

[eternal ibex]

do i get rid of her now

[elder flume]

Retreat her for dp

Teq Sash Saria

Then 2 frd

[eternal ibex]

dang

its fine prolly

[elder flume]

You can use Teq skill when 2 casters in his range

[eternal ibex]

should i put healer?

[elder flume]

Put Myrtle on top blue box

Top most

Left 1 of that acruallt

Ye

Teq skill

Gravel deploy

Myrtle skill

[keen lark]

Is flametail good

[elder flume]

Let Myrtle finish then retreat

[eternal ibex]

damn

[elder flume]

Thats fine

Ptilo down

Ptilo down

Bait

Sash skill

[eternal ibex]

is wis next?

[elder flume]

Might not habe enough dp to put Wis then Krooster down hm

Krooster take care of right most egg

You can put her the tile below

1 left

Right

Pause

Gravel on top of bottom egg when its gona blow

Next to Sash protecting Ptilo

Krooster out

Bait

[eternal ibex]

with what

[elder flume]

In a few sec

[eternal ibex]

hm

[elder flume]

Rip not enough

[eternal ibex]

bricked run?

[elder flume]

Ye

Krooster out for Lancet

Cuora out for Noir

[eternal ibex]

this time for sure

[elder flume]

So instead of starting phase 2 with blockers
Start with just Myrtle

She will get burn = use skill
If theres enemies then we setup left

Myrtle immediately after fireballs done

[eternal ibex]

same spot as before?

[elder flume]

Ye

[eternal ibex]

nothing else?

[elder flume]

Yep

[eternal ibex]

huh

[elder flume]

Oh she still uses ignite first hm

[eternal ibex]

dead run?

[elder flume]

Its fine can setup left

Without Ptilo

Sash face left

Bait

WaitnforbYato

Teq can skill

[eternal ibex]

should i have baited?

[elder flume]

Ye

Whenever Gravel is ready

[eternal ibex]

i need to go back to shooting balloons with monkeys

[elder flume]

Pause

Let her burn nothing

Then Myrtle down

Oh not that fast lol

[eternal ibex]

oh

i thought that spawning animation did the burning

[elder flume]

Pause

Jaye out to get burnt

Then retreat

[eternal ibex]

bricked?

[elder flume]

Still works

Myrtle 1 left of where she was

Setup Teq Sash Saria

Not bricked

[eternal ibex]

she bout to burn isnt she?

[elder flume]

No

Bait out

[eternal ibex]

i myrtle asap right?

[elder flume]

Ye

Ptilo

Rip didnt bait in time

Oh saved lmao

Keep them

Myrtle skill into Wis

Sash skill

To hit Talulah yes

[eternal ibex]

sash skill before wis?

[elder flume]

Pause

Im thinking if Amiya should be put down to kill the middle egg tbh

Fuck it Wis down

Yeah

Retreat Myrtle

Pause

Lancet next to Wis

Any

Gravel on Tal

Wis skill

Keeo

Keep

[eternal ibex]

gravel is very dead

[elder flume]

Is that under half hp Tal

[eternal ibex]

This gona ne a bit sketchy

Ptilo skill when fireballs come

When Wis kills the left 2 enemies she can retreat

[eternal ibex]

[elder flume]

Ptilo yeah

Ignore the top enemy

Put blockers on Saria side

Gravel

No more enemy until that ejemy dies

So just wait dp

[eternal ibex]

[elder flume]

Wis when she comes back same spot face left

[elder flume]

Wdym

[eternal ibex]

its a joke dw lol

ok wis down or like a myrtle first

[elder flume]

Just Wis

Stage is done

Only dogs come out

Anything you do is fine

[eternal ibex]

wait so i dont really use these like free attempts

do i have to do this again?

like with sanity

[elder flume]

Youre in normal run rn

[eternal ibex]

ITS OVER

HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUCKK

tqsm bro

youre a lifesaver

sanitysaver

[elder flume]

But yes with practice ticket you do play the stage again

Practice is just for a feel of it

My batt is 2% so im out

[eternal ibex]

i wont forget you 😭

[narrow pendant]

Mention him on your will

[eternal ibex]

bros coming to my fucking wedding

[narrow pendant]

I want a slice of the cake too

[rugged lava]

how actually this thing (heavensfall) takes priority? closest target? last deployed?

and how many unit can be targeted by this? sometimes it can kill two, sometimes once

[scarlet mortar]

p2 can still use the thunder from p1 btw

[glass monolith]

Explaining how to kill it will take less than explaining the fuck it does

I believe each attack has its own targeting so have fun

[scarlet mortar]

the tail strike only targets one op, closest to the boss's nominal tile (bottom right of its fat fucking bod iirc)

oh yh they also have ranged/melee distinction

the thunder prios ranged ops while the tail strike prios melee

horrible

ok it's [vaguely points] there

HG probs thought they were cooking

in practice the targeting is asscheeks and i'd bet most of the casual players borrowed their friends' surtrs and NGs to ignore the fuck out of the boss stages

and then ya2 showed up ig

[glass monolith]

I have no memory of how i passed that boss originally. But i did Heavyrain + Kroos alter buff squad for lulz afterwards

[scarlet mortar]

handling the wisps on release was pretty interesting since it was the first time people found out abt ethan S1

[glass monolith]

I am in this image and i don't like it

[scarlet mortar]

the rest of the boss is a blur though

[rugged lava]

and then, how many thunder strikes to ranged unit can be done simultenaously?

[glass monolith]

He spawns 3 of those cross aoe thingies each time he does them

[slim plover]

should i upgrade crownslayer to E2 lvl 1 and module for IS5

currently running a mission with executors for Patriot and Amiya bosses

using support Texas Alter and Gravel, I don't own any other executors

[vocal leaf]

no, don’t e2 her just for that, what diff you playing and what ending tier?

you could rather build and draft ethan for bind stall bosses if you can’t control the orbs

[slim plover]

A6 and third tier

I was more so thinking about if her buff in a few months makes her viable for other content?

*highest tier, stasis

[glass monolith]

Well it is funny high stun uptime. Which means they will give every cancerous enemy from now on stun immunity

[vocal leaf]

you need 4 frd to control both orbs from boss pillars, i think you will have better luck with ethan bind, use texas s3 to stun the bind casters in case they target ethan

[rich plover]

Alright, HS MO, the Annihilation map

Any tips?

[celest bluff]

How low op can HS-9 get

Video?

[vocal leaf]

https://youtu.be/5CX6jW0Rlus?si=baO-mSSobFmGdqVn

does he need max pot? idk

[south spindle]

Zuo Le, Ling, Kaltsit

[south spindle]

btw arkrec has these records

[haughty flower]

Arkrec doesn't work for me unless I VPN to JP

💯

[vocal leaf]

what skill does she use?

[south spindle]

uh no clue, prob S3 to cheese any DR

Oh yeah for sure

2 cycles of S3 will melt the boss

[vocal leaf]

last time i use monster, it died in like 3 hits

[south spindle]

no clue, but prob max masteries/module

[vocal leaf]

everything is maxed except pot

[south spindle]

damn

no clue

the video is gone

maybe its fraudulent

[vocal leaf]

let me try again, where to deploy monster tho?

or do you have to redeploy top to bottom? does kal eat the flies or what?

[slim plover]

Bet thanks

[rugged lava]

is caster amiya S3 mastery worth to do?

[rocky kelp]

nah

[south spindle]

no idea, the videos gone

just use ZL

[rugged lava]

are there any extra rewards (material orundum lmd etc) if we compelete certain event with trimmed medal? are medals from stage still claimable if the event is put on side story/intemezzo?

[glass monolith]

Medals are just bragging right

Event medals can be obtained only on original run and reruns, afterwards they forever gone, here hold my 2 medal Grand Chief medal set

[vocal leaf]

do you mean the 2 medals missing that newer players can’t get? I HATE THIS! Did they ever fixed that bug? For whatever reason you can get medals from playing the side story but ofc there’s no way to complete it because there’s no shop or even event coins to spend on it

you can see i got that in 2023, when the event was clearly months ago gone

[glass monolith]

Uh.... I don't skip medals to check if thye can be obtained

And after i got my first full set i ma stuck in hell of need to full set each event to flex my ability to idk, still play this game

[vocal leaf]

i think it’s only that event

[vocal leaf]

ye ye same

it’s just that set for whatever reason was bugged when i started playing, wonder if it’s still bugged

[rugged lava]

asking here. if i cleare III adverse, do i automatically get II and I?

[lapis hornet]

ya

[scarlet fulcrum]

si

[noble summit]

i still can't beat 7-9

[haughty flower]

Just beat it.

[noble summit]

my dp

[haughty flower]

DP harder.

There's a few easy borrow options to lock down a lane early and buy time. Mountain is the most braindead-you put him down in your first lane that seems to always falter, click the funny s2 button, then work the rest of the map.
Ines can cover both of the right lanes at once, but you'll need a few braincells.
Hell, Vulpisfolgia might work even at her rather pricey 14 dp.

[lapis hornet]

op op

[haughty flower]

I dislike saga.

[lapis hornet]

cool story bro

[spark sinew]

[full terrace]

What a timing, I was just working on 7-9 and havent uploaded it yet

[full terrace]

It's a Ling borrow clear but my positioning and timing is extremely hellish, do you still want it?

[lapis hornet]

o_O

[muted egret]

how does one

beat that stage

without rerolling

and ragequitting

[vocal leaf]

depends on what you have, it is clear a counter for wis/ros/nara starts, they suffer the most

[muted egret]

usually play with logos/borrowed wis

and die

[elder flume]

Wis top right face right
Wis bottom left face up

[muted egret]

thanks

[elder flume]

Theres also schizo Wis top middle face left ig

Lapp2 S1 can silence so they stop spawning

Silence counters it a lot

[muted egret]

Pull Theresis away from Theresa. You can also use True damage. Use Ethan bind or any good CC to prevent elites from advancing.

[frail vigil]

[scarlet mortar]

[next wigeon]

Looks like a Stone Forest lmao

[rain plaza]

blindly entering any stage
whos ur go to operators?

currently mines ines/myrtle, penance/nearl(tank), nearl(gaurd)/uplianus, gnosis/kjera, and lumen/glaadia

[umbral dagger]

Aegir team, with Deepcolor, Thorns, and Weedy available to sub in as the stage demands. Gonna run a Laterano team now, too, especially with Masses' Travels coming up.

[rain plaza]

ive always wanted to do this

but im missing the 6 star alters

GOD underflow is so coool

[umbral dagger]

I'd look to borrow Specter the Unchained, as her module is very powerful. Skadi the Corrupting Heart isn't super necessary.

[rain plaza]

nah i want to HAVE them

i have NEVER borrowed units

[umbral dagger]

Yeah, I really like her. Initially I wanted to do just AH but that was a problem for pre-Ulpianus days and especially against flying units, so I expanded it so I could have more variety

[rain plaza]

andreana is pretty interesting

the s2 does a shocking amount of damage but because the seahunter squad has no other arial

[umbral dagger]

I get it, but it's expensive to do so, and I say if you want to try a niche team out there's no shame in borrowing to give it a whirl.

[rain plaza]

i mean other than glaadia ig

[rain plaza]

to be honest

just having glaadia and uplianus is basically having the whole thing

the atomic bomb and his retainer

[steel prairie]

Question: is there any range characters that can detect hidden enemies ? (ik Ines can... but she is a ground type)
asking this because is there a more efficient way of detecting those slug/slime in the dirty rice padies in the current event

[umbral dagger]

Tsukinogi

[steel prairie]

oh and also I want to hear about opinions about the Leizi alter (recently released)

on CN I mean

released or tested ???

[lucid junco]

would hypothetically fartooth be good at dealing with these since she has dodge ignore?

[full terrace]

They are invisible

If you can reveal their invisibility from afar, you dont need dodge ignore and simply nuke them

If you cant then by the time they walk closer you can use stabilizer chain to remove their invisibility and phys dodge

And a lot of ops will be better for the dps there

[lucid junco]

yes i had used a combination of ines and ray in s-4 to deal with them (alongside the chains) when doing the stage some hours ago; they were both the mpvs for the stage

but i had the idea of maybe using fartooth after revealing them b4 doing it and i was unsure if it wd be a good or efficient idea

[full terrace]

In CM, the center tiles are banned so Ines doesnt work, it has to be Horn. If you managed to do that, then you are better off throwing some nukes at them with units like Wisadel or Logos rather than coping with Fartooth.

Do not cope with Fartooth.

If you wait til they come to the right side then you dont need Anti-stealth or Dodge ignore

Simply use the stabilizer chain

[lucid junco]

this was kinda more or less how my clear of it was. where ines is is her shadow sentry that wd spot the assassins who escaped shu and logos so ray could help out w her sandbeast which would alternate between there and the right side to nuke the tower big guys somewhat and also the assassins

[narrow pendant]

2nd mlynar

[steel prairie]

ah the memes make sense

[vocal leaf]

late reply, but they didn’t mention scene and totter, scenes use her summons to reveal, totter directly attack enemies with camo

[rugged lava]

Texas normal worth E2?

[haughty flower]

No.

[rugged lava]

vanguard E2 suck?

[narrow pendant]

Texas suck

[vocal leaf]

meta wise you only use flags and agents

[rugged lava]

+2dp early game is good for f2p account right? even in my old acc, i only get to build vanguard *4. some games can dp tight

[south spindle]

uh nah not really

[haughty flower]

Hm.

[south spindle]

like most vgs < 6* are not worth of a E2 any time in early game

E1-40 + Skil Levels

[rugged lava]

never i was interested in *6 vanguard either. they generate slower than myrtle

[south spindle]

Do Myrtle and if you have Cantabile her

in the next limited banner theres surfer

80% chance you will get her in the free 24 pulls

[vocal leaf]

now you have have free flag wanqing too

[south spindle]

nah not worth for newbies because to get worth you need to actually use their S2 or smth

[narrow pendant]

Myrtle glazing crazy

[vocal leaf]

it’s good to have 2 flags imo, ely is not that accessible for new players anymore

i will be forever an ely pot2

[narrow pendant]

I own all 4 and none of them are actually build

[south spindle]

In one squad? Wouldn’t say 💀

[elder flume]

Myrtle needs 2 seconds with Bag P5 to even print dp

while Ines Canta can do immediate with Bag P1

Chilchuck doesnt even need Bag

[haughty flower]

Cantabile needs 0 on s1
How broken is my favorite birb

[elder flume]

Texas Chiave Vulpis gets access to immediate too with Bag + Lapp2

durin race is just chalked huh

[haughty flower]

How broken is Chiave

[steel prairie]

ic... tho are they 5 star or 6 star Ops ???

[elder flume]

1 is gacha 4star
1 is buy certs only

[vocal leaf]

well i use both ely and wanqing for my male only clears

in fact for ccb2 having both made a difference

[steel prairie]

k ty so much... also cause those invisible slimes are such a menance... it prevents me from killing them without entering clean water

also those damn Armorless Union assassins

fuk invinsible enemies

also apparently Leizi Alter "floats" so that she doesnt get hit by Taluhah fireballs (they only hit people standing on smth apparently), so who else also floats ???

[dapper hedge]

Skyrangers

On skills

[steel prairie]

interesting

they all seem like gimmicks tho

[scarlet mortar]

intended response

invis is how enemies get iframes so they don't get vaporized by 2025 dps

though those critters aren't that bad

they die in 2 hits

[scarlet mortar]

new iframe mechanic yes

it's one of the stronger gimmicks since just flying prevents 80% of enemies from ever hitting you

[south spindle]

That’s cc yes sure

[narrow pendant]

U get the water pump on like, most stages
Just clean the water🥱

[vocal leaf]

and i actually used his s2, that literally saved courier from dying, i saw other male clears used vigil, but i was not going to e2 that goofy lupo
boy

[rugged lava]

how is this bombing's mechanic? i have 2 defenders, one is blocking 4+ enemy that it leaks (cardigan) but the one targeted is defender that is in the condition of not blocking a single at all (cuora)

[maiden hound]

is cuora on skill?

[rugged lava]

not at all

it is charging if anything

[elder flume]

its not about blocking
its about block count
my Gavial is block count 6 but not blocking so shes targete

[limpid ore]

didnt we have tutorial on this?

[haughty flower]

Chapter 10 filters the tutorial skippers.

[elder flume]

tutorial skippers have Humus to not care about cannon

[haughty flower]

You can clearly tell who paid attention and who didn't based on how they react to the cannon.

[south spindle]

Lmfao

[haughty flower]

If they don't realize how it works he'll still get ignored by the cannon in favor of their waifu blaze sitting smack dab in the middle of their wandering medics and marksmen snipers. :P

he just isnt dying

he takes little to no dmg?

i can hop on vc

I can't lol

are you dying?

[eternal ibex]

[teal moon]

send your squad again

[teal moon]

wait a moment

[rapid junco]

Sheet my similar unit are max lvl

[teal moon]

did you use 3 medics?

[eternal ibex]

nah

[teal moon]

use 3 medics and put Saria below Silverash

and have you used ops to boost the pumps?

[eternal ibex]

who should i use for 3 medic

[eternal ibex]

yeah

[teal moon]

ansel, if you can give him some levels

[eternal ibex]

sure

how many should i give

[teal moon]

btw, I used Noir Corne on top left (right after the Sui moves slightly) to bait the little flies

once they are finished removed him and used him for the pump, but anyone can fill that role

[rapid junco]

i use degen to one shoot the big slug

[rich plover]

Anyone got the vids to guides for the S stages?

Don't wanna use the outdated ones

Also the MO stage if possible

[vocal leaf]

if they worked back then, why they wouldn’t now?

[rich plover]

Ok fair enough

Can anyone lend me their Lin?

[distant bough]

I can

If you still there

You could also just reroll random support casters tho

You don't need masteries for that stage

[rich plover]

The annoying part of HS S 1 are those drones

[distant bough]

Point still stands tho, no need for masteries, so any random lin support would work

[rich plover]

k got it

[distant bough]

Just refresh for a bit

Then you can even add the guy

[rich plover]

True!

[distant bough]

(It's not that I don't wanna help btw, I just don't usually set Lin as my support 😭 )

[rich plover]

haha fair, who uses Lin nowadays?

[spark sinew]

I'm surprised you even want to use her for s1

[vocal leaf]

lin was the mvp in ccb2

[spark sinew]

seems like a super do nothing support

[sullen rover]

you spelled ceobe wrong

you can replace lin with mostima

[vocal leaf]

he meant the s stage, not the skill

[sullen rover]

and technically ines but you will have her in a slot either way

[rich plover]

Surprised the MO stage is relative medium difficulty

Actually, did Arflanyr posted any HS vids here?

[vocal leaf]

i remember one for s4 but it was high end low op

i suppose you are only doing s stages now

[narrow pendant]

Also does yu's recovery passive work on lings summons?

[void terrace]

Thank u

[narrow pendant]

What recovery?

That hp is for him only

[void terrace]

His s3 spreads it to all operators

Also when he uses s3 is it 1.5% of yu's hp or the operators hp

[narrow pendant]

Oh, didnt notice that

[void terrace]

Its kinda like medicmiyas passive isnt it

[narrow pendant]

Wording sounds like the ops, not his

[void terrace]

I loved her global heal and having a small version on yu that heals enminity too would be great

Whelp

Even more buffs for my pennance and mudrock to eat

[narrow pendant]

Answer is no btw

S3 states "to all operators"

Lings dragons are summons or allies

[hard pine]

So perfumer passive?

(Though tbf that is flat and not % based)

[void terrace]

Rip

[steel prairie]

do all healer heal the same rate or there is one healer that can spam heal very fast ??? (ignoring side things like Silence drone)

[glass monolith]

Attack speed of same archetype is same, aoe medics heal slower than single target. Ptilo S2 make her heal very fast. Sussuro S2 makes her heal super fast etc

[south spindle]

Healer meta falls off fast when you get to harder content, silence ptilo warf enough most gen content

Only ever need 2 at most too

Harder content either those same 5* work fine usually don’t even need more than one, or you need to do something specific (like quilon) or things are too strong to even bother tanking lol

[rapid junco]

Nope
Quilon want healer

[grim elk]

Silence is a previously mentioned global healer that can deal with Quilon's gimmick ez

[south spindle]

Hence “need to do something specific”

[wheat arch]

Also silence is mostly enough for Quilon

Maybe you grab another 4* healer but that's about it

Since dat drone scales with attack apeed

[steel prairie]

whole team made it to 400 but leaked some... mainly the top flank, how do you defend the top flank if they are camo ???

Vulpi nearly held it the whole time but eventually too many of them came and her S3 couldnt keep up

[elder flume]

Normally youre supposed to put a defender there to tank their first hit and remove the stealth

[steel prairie]

uhhh can a multi role defender hold that area or a pure defender is better ??? since my best defender is Saria but she is often described as more of a healer

[elder flume]

If they can tank the first hit then it works

Since only the first hit is buffed

[steel prairie]

ok

[gritty shale]

How to clear sk-4 (dont have operators with strong aoe or crowd control) :/

[full terrace]

You borrow and manual farm til you can auto it

[rapid junco]

Uhh, you only need shaw skill lvl 4 to push caster on top

Bottom lane can be handled by bunch of 3*s

Or like , brute force with your e2 tequila

[merry narwhal]

yeah, definitely borrow a unit for first clears on those stages. You won't need to farm them ever, because you'll get base materials naturally and especially early on it's actually LMD that is the most tight

at least that's how I remember my early game going

[rapid junco]

Actually, you kinda farm it

[gritty shale]

[rapid junco]

Farm sk for base upgrade

[gritty shale]

Should I raise mountain? He's cool
