I actually hate f1 bruh

[gaunt bay]

[steel relic]

it's so shit

[finite ocean]

Say, does anyone here know how to beat the 1st Ending of IS6 short of just letting a full squad of 10 sharpedges pass through to the objective whenever they spawn? I have gotten my tail handed to me 4 consecutive runs to those things. I must be missing some obvious strategy to deal with the instant fail condition when it arrives whether or not I kill those things or not, right?

[nocturne cape]

Shes not maxed

Teehee

[gaunt bay]

its fine

mine is uh

🥹

no time to grind

[nocturne cape]

Ok shes up

Wait, the free unit Raidan is OP for IS6? What about Tin Man? Why can't we use him as good as raidan wtf?

[nocturne cape]

feel better soon

[arctic panther]

well it was a good effort

[proven dagger]

radian gets a billion buffs

and benefits

tin man gets a new pair of sneakers

[remote cradle]

Why not tin man???

[proven dagger]

tin man simply didn't receive as many in-mode things as radian

[gaunt bay]

cube im kidnapping your exu as well

[proven dagger]

• IS6 is designed around her

[gaunt bay]

[gaunt bay]

How fucked up is this start

:icant:

[proven dagger]

[arctic panther]

[ancient tree]

oh is that just infinite farm?

[remote cradle]

I'm not illiterate right? Is this just basically bad even if tossed?

[ancient tree]

ok then, time to Definitely no life grind to 999 investment

[cold fjord]

you should because dlc changes this

👍

[nocturne cape]

Yes

[steel relic]

yes it's strictly negative

[proven dagger]

it's been a hot minute since I've used schwarz

[remote cradle]

I see, I thought it's a ceobe abuser kind of thing

[proven dagger]

🫃

i gotta give them all a chance to shine in IS6

especially Jieyun

OH

I SHOULD TRY ASH START

[agile hill]

aparently there is node in wonderland that depends on tossing risk coin to win stuff, if you have enough risk coin, it could help you snowball very strong, but if you are not plan to do that, usually you want to replace

[stray dove]

I feel like the big difficulty of it is on performing really well in WiW visits for valuewhich are very restrictive

[ancient tree]

I can't tell the value of nodes yet

which is the biggest issue for me

[arctic panther]

also that event is super rare compared to the other leisure events

[ancient tree]

like wonderland pathing is idk

like does the wonderland fights get harder the more floors I clear

[agile hill]

idk what happens if you just aim to get leisures instead

[arctic panther]

what

[old geyser]

didnt think I was going to clear this one but it turns out stacking dodge chance made me functionally immune to the regular enemies on the boss stage and let my ops survive two passes of the foot without needing to redeploy

[arctic panther]

i can never escape the lamp

[kind swan]

Is conviction good? Shes in the guard selection as a temp op

She or he i forgor

[old geyser]

neither

[gentle frost]

Better than a 3*
Thats... About it really

[proven dagger]

yay d14 done

@cold fjord schwarz is speaking 🗣️

[arctic panther]

https://tenor.com/view/arknights-conviction-yostar-skill-solution-gif-26283947

[proven dagger]

they bursted him down so fast

didn't even have to trag stall 😭

[rotund copper]

no need to stall if you can just vaporize him (this goes to everything)

[proven dagger]

schwarz nation 🗣️

i should draft her more often

she seems great

might cook in ed2 👀

[wintry void]

How does Leizi fully lane hold left lane on ed2?

[stray dove]

Some maps have a lot of differing variations

and i can only imagine they get to a harder and harder version the more floors you clear

[glacial bane]

fk this stupid boss. every fail idea will pay with another run. wat is this bitch weakness?

[arctic panther]

who

[glacial bane]

ive no tanker to blocked him. all i can do is nuke him before he nukes me

[arctic panther]

if its yi his weakness is tragodia's cat or raidian's gun fish keeping ihm at the top of the map

[arctic panther]

use raidian

or borrow tragodia

[glacial bane]

my raid is e1 lvl80

[arctic panther]

ok and

[glacial bane]

is she too weak?

[arctic panther]

no

she can use s2

therefore she can stall yi at the top

i assume you're on d0-2?

[glacial bane]

im on ending1

i beat ending0

[arctic panther]

you mean difficulty 0

or d0

there is no ending 0

[glacial bane]

oh yeah

[arctic panther]

ending 1 is yi

[glacial bane]

im on d1

[old geyser]

the marks on the upper left of the squad types in the selection screen are showing which endings and on which difficulty you've cleared using that squad, right?

[stray dove]

this is actually an ingenius perk to give to the squad meant to keep you alive as much as possible.

[arctic panther]

the more vibrant the colors the higher the difficulty

[glacial bane]

tell me can wis n lemuen nuke him? max masteries

i do have exu2 n lapp

[arctic panther]

at d1? definitely

you might need a few relics though

[glacial bane]

and mon3tr leizi2

[stray dove]

huh....get Raidian's E2, and then use Special squad with a temp Raidian while yours is unfinished.

I'm guessing that's the play?

[arctic panther]

they cant get raidian e2 without killing yi 3 times

they already did it once

[glacial bane]

thats the point i cant e2 her without beating d2 n im on d1

[brittle saddle]

is lappland alt a decent draft for the ed3 boss? will her dmg be enough to get all the go pieces on the map?

[stray dove]

thats what i meant

when getting Raidian to E2.

[arctic panther]

i've seen it work but you might want to draft yu alongside her

[brittle saddle]

ill get more than enough defender tickets for him

the game loves giving me defender and medic tickets

[glacial bane]

raid with s2 n block him at beginin? i will try it

[arctic panther]

also make sure to have her on s1 when you get to the boss

[glacial bane]

fk u yi

[arctic panther]

you can push him back a tile by waiting until he's in the middle of a tile, then placing the summon on that same tile

if you do it when he's too far into the tile though that'll just push him forward

[glacial bane]

hm ivent used her yet. i will try

[stray dove]

Does Temp Raidian not have the other many perks of your own Raidian?

or do they?

[ripe summit]

Guys. I want to retrospect myself a bit. Am I just bad? every time I try new difficulty I sucked. but when I toned it down a bit. It becomes somewhat managable. d2 was hard. Now I'm okay

[stray dove]

i mean

ain't your account fairly new?

[ripe summit]

I dunno. Maybe

[stray dove]

at least compared to the endgame players like me

[ripe summit]

True

[ancient tree]

how is IS6 ED3?

[ripe summit]

I still ain't got a wide spread roster. Still haven't seen what other subclass do

[arctic panther]

you probably arent highrolling enough

[arctic panther]

en route is fucking hell

the boss itself isnt too bad though

as long as you can take a few leaks

[onyx sable]

Is raidian racist? Her firing squad make me feel she is

[ancient tree]

humm, sounds fun

[ripe summit]

Money wise or IS6?

[arctic panther]

is6wise

[ripe summit]

Huh???

[arctic panther]

how good were the relics in your d2 runs?

[ripe summit]

First or second one?

[arctic panther]

both

it could've just been you got unlucky with combats you were unfamiliar with too

(and/or just got screwed over by shitty combats)

[ripe summit]

The first time I try to maximize as much as I can. Second time it was more managable. Not too many collectible that synergize with raidian or anything. But

maybe that combat one is the one that got me.

Especially the one that march big mobs. When they die, they spawn unblockable minions

[arctic panther]

yeah inkwaves will mess you up if you dont have aoe

[ripe summit]

I mean color me surprise how exusiai and Aak is the same subclass

But significantly different

[stray dove]

oh wow you can stall enemy killing with Raidian's S2 because they only attack in one direction

[arctic panther]

specialists are wildly different in general

[ionic cradle]

I'm lovin it

[ripe summit]

Yeah. I just noticed that too after a few runs

[ionic cradle]

I just wished there was a 150% True damage relic variant here

[arctic panther]

civilight eterna isnt in this is?

[ripe summit]

true damage, everyone love that

[ionic cradle]

Don think so

[arctic panther]

surprised i didnt notice

[sinful sparrow]

CE relic is in

[arctic panther]

oh

[ionic cradle]

huh, whar the unlock condition or smth?

[ripe summit]

Hold on. What the heck is that pink dragon?

[ionic cradle]

Sapidity mechanic

Thought ya might've known Yu's event

[arctic panther]

just highroll better

[ionic cradle]

If you're talking about the statue guy, just a numbskull compared to his other bros

[ionic cradle]

Damnit

[floral plaza]

I took every wonder land and found the damn bfly in f5

Last node

Cant even try to kill early feet

💀

[random ingot]

Will this still work on Ulpianus S3 after his skill ends? Since it counts as redeploying, right?

[arctic panther]

ed2 moment

[arctic panther]

no

the effect ends globally when any op manually activates their skill

its not localized to each operator

[ionic cradle]

Need to have Sui squad and skipping the first remnant but still claiming the candles

[floral plaza]

Does auto cast rune null the down side

[arctic panther]

great for opening stages(especially with ed3 relic) but not much else

[arctic panther]

probably not

if the skill is labelled as manual by the game, then it'll probably cancel the basket

no matter how its activated

[ionic cradle]

Feel like that stuff was mostly made for thorn lovers

oh wait no offensive

Rip

[floral plaza]

Its made for caster amiya s2 enjoyer

[arctic panther]

nah thats what cheeto is module was made for

[floral plaza]

Og exu s3

Surely

[ionic cradle]

It could be ight with Zuo Le or most ops if paired with that relic that gives more sp regen per skill activation

[stray dove]

.....ok yeah Raidian is fucking strong af

not just the perks of having her

she is absurd in combat too (IS6 combat)

[ionic cradle]

encounters too

she really feels more of an MC there compared to Leizi

[old geyser]

whenever you have a bad map, take a moment to analyze where things went wrong, and what your options are to mitigate that in the future. Sometimes its just bad RNG, but usually there will be something you can improve on. And if your account isnt built then take advantage of the fact that your starting three can be support units.

[old geyser]

pocket candy OP

[stray dove]

i want to keep telling this to people but

the MC of an IS isn't made to dominate the IS they are mascoting

[arctic panther]

they should’ve given all of the buffs to leizi

[stray dove]

same reason operators released in their event do not need to excel in the event they debuted in

hell i still remember when Chalter felt like ass to use in Dossoles

due to the high def boats and physical dodge mobs

[ionic cradle]

Id say IS4 and IS5 was a wee bit of an exception, Necrosis was dominant there , and generally Typhon really pairs with alot of the relics and folelaterals

[sinful sparrow]

uhm no

Typhon slop in endings

sorry bud

[stray dove]

Typhon isn't even fucking close to good in max diff IS4

[sinful sparrow]

🤢

[ionic cradle]

Nah ain't just using er right

[stray dove]

my dude

I used her in Vanilla IS4 release

i know her

and she is not it

[sinful sparrow]

show d15 234 win with typhon and then we will talk

else, 🫃

[arctic panther]

well now i dont wanna

[stray dove]

the only great thing she does is make EB boss in F3 a tad easier. But here's the thing, Ray does that too easily

[ionic cradle]

eh IS5 is still closer but I'd like to think was more on made to counter only the 1st and 2nd ending for Typhon in some way

[sinful sparrow]

is5 nymph is whatever

[stray dove]

and Tin Man is just a benchwarmer

there is nothing like Raidian

hell, even Highmore's IS3 buffs were laughable

[ionic cradle]

every 5* stuff on IS is just free starter floor material anyways

[stray dove]

they cost something in higher diffs...

free starter my fucking ass

[ionic cradle]

except for 3 and 2 since it wasn't that much implemented with a hope reduction

[ionic cradle]

That's why I said starter smh

[ripe summit]

I'm kinda afraid when this IS is over. We're all gonna feel 16 DP Raidian summon becomes a nuisance. Maybe not. But man

[ionic cradle]

just Myrtle + Ines(or Cantabile without)

[compact citrus]

random question, will the boss die if you have the tongbao to start with 99 dp, and the cang blade?

[ionic cradle]

I don't think the next events are gonna be dp stealing typa stuff anyways

[stray dove]

ummmm I don't think anyone's using Raidian outside of IS even when it released in CN

[ionic cradle]

if you still know what you're doing maybe

just need a dp generator since dp cost can hurt when it's Sui

[compact citrus]

just was a random thought really

[crimson nest]

Cangtong blade isnt even that much dmg

[flint token]

which boss

[compact citrus]

all 3 I guess

[flint token]

also cantong is like 2k it cant even kill most trashs

[compact citrus]

oh really

[flint token]

that’s the equivalent of 3 raidian auto attacks

off skill

[compact citrus]

what if you pair it with the true damage puppets and stun multipliers

[flint token]

well it’s slightly worse

[crimson nest]

You can just

Do the math

Its bad

The nice thing is just the stun

[flint token]

bosses have HP value in the hundred thousands

[crimson nest]

But most bosses are immune to it

[flint token]

cangtong aint doing shit to them

[stray dove]

btw how do i prio Spec voucher?

Geexu...after that should I go for Ambusher (Mizuki/Ascalon)?....or Ela?

[compact citrus]

like I said, random thought

[ionic cradle]

Ascalon and Ethan

[flint token]

Personally i do geekxu > yato > ascalon

ethan is budget pick ig

[stray dove]

Raidian's default skill is S2, right?
So when to use S3?

[ionic cradle]

I hate those Talismans so Ascalon/Ethan

[sinful sparrow]

why do you take the time to say X, and then immidiately pull a defensive move “its a random thought” when called out

[flint token]

When she’s e2

[sinful sparrow]

[crimson nest]

You use both

Just depend on the stage

[ionic cradle]

On maps where range tiles are dominant duh

[crimson nest]

And what you want her do

[stray dove]

in general, how do i decide? Just map dependence on which summon would do best?

[compact mist]

does is6 have a special node for prophecy?

[ionic cradle]

Yeah

[crimson nest]

You know if you just play

[ionic cradle]

Near the final floor

Just before the boss

(as always)

[stray dove]

....map knowledge must be amazing once you do Raidian S3 to keep the summons range-chained

[ionic cradle]

it's kinda simple, just see if the map has many conjoined tiles until one Thorned gourd blocks em

[stray dove]

is this S3's range?

or shittier?

[ionic cradle]

it's that

[stray dove]

noted

[flint token]

Range be generous

[old geyser]

those gourds have ended more of my runs than anything else so far

[ionic cradle]

Especially the Mimic gourd now scaling with how much greedy you are

[stray dove]

what's S2's damage type?

[arctic panther]

physical

[ionic cradle]

Physical

[stray dove]

S3 is arts?

[ionic cradle]

Hits three times during skill activation

[arctic panther]

and s3 onskill inflicts arts fragility

[stray dove]

S2 has multiple hit count while S3 has 1 hit per shot?

[arctic panther]

multiple if you chain summons together

[ionic cradle]

Well technically can be also multi hit on S3

[stray dove]

i know the chain range

but per summon

how many

[arctic panther]

one

[ionic cradle]

+1 obviously

[stray dove]

ok now i know when to use S2 and S3

its very distinct from one another

[ancient tree]

ED3 fight is wtf

where am I supposed to setupo

[stray dove]

i heard from a CN player in #cn-lounge that Wang's gimmick is fun. But the prerequisite fight for the route is hell

[ionic cradle]

Need alot of starting dp and alot of operators that can hit stuff around them

[ancient tree]

yeah all my units got killed by the ballz

[tribal pulsar]

So how does robbing Cannot look like in IS6

[ionic cradle]

Same as IS3 but simpler I'd say

it's just those cannon dudes being annoyin

[arctic panther]

is3 shop rob is simpler imo

in is3 theres only one spot where enemies can come theow

is6 has multiple

[ionic cradle]

Well raidian was also a thing for it so eh

[arctic panther]

still not too hard but you have to use your brain more

[ionic cradle]

Just immediately kill cannon dudes

[obsidian needle]

what if I don't want to use my brain

[arctic panther]

play is5

[stray dove]

I'm seeing 2 modules for Raidian in CN. Which one's better for CN?

[arctic panther]

(ed1 only)

[arctic panther]

raidians getting a second module????

[ionic cradle]

On expansion I think

[stray dove]

btw, S2 is still what you default on Raidian?

safest option as a blocking tool i reckon and safe to kill furniture with

[ionic cradle]

Really depends fr

Some maps the straight line range does shit

[obsidian needle]

a lot of stage is design around her s3

[stray dove]

hmmm I'm curious what the sweats default to...

@nocturne cape Raidian's default skill?

[ionic cradle]

Id say S3 as it's essential for taking on some elite enemies there since sealed tiles are dominant on later stages where elite enemies reside in

That fucking gift map for example with the flowers and arsonist wolves

[stray dove]

yeah i can imagine S3 is the heavier hitter

and you need as many elite killers as you can

[halcyon flame]

It’s 2

The main skill is 2

S3 is used on some maps though

And 1 in a few bosky maps + ED1

[nova pasture]

Best squad to go in IS2?

[halcyon flame]

Any class squad

Snp or speccast

Take ur pick

[limber coral]

Which IS is easiest? I've never done one

[stray dove]

1. if we're considering max diff and have maximum game knowledge, IS5 is easiest just because Lamp is too consistent and too broken

2. As a newbie, start with IS2 to be the LEAST overwhelmed

3. As someone who wants faster progress, just do the latest IS while there's EXP missions still

[arctic panther]

first off, how many operators do you have e2'd atleast?

[limber coral]

https://www.krooster.com/u/noble-cherry-spot-53jr

[stray dove]

hmmmm.....

[arctic panther]

ok you should be good

[stray dove]

low difficulties only that's for sure

early enough that masteries are only in Geexu S2 and the E2 levels aren't even all 40

so the resources aren't too good

[stray dove]

How do you use S1 in Yi fight?

[obsidian needle]

probably to stall Yi

[halcyon flame]

You put his ass in the baby cage red box

And just spam summons

Because of refund

And the fact that he cc’s himself for a long ass time when casting

[arctic panther]

this box is red enough right

[errant siren]

🥹

Absolute cinema

[halcyon flame]

It appears the baby has broken out

[severe oasis]

i mean yeah i see some red in this image for sure

[arctic panther]

close enough

[stray dove]

ah the 1st module carries that strat

[halcyon flame]

Ya

[stray dove]

I'ma practice Yi fights doing that then

considering I already have Raidian

[severe oasis]

its pretty consistent, bro just cant go anywhere

dont even need trag

[agile hill]

how much does raidian refund

it feels like she refund only some summon

[severe oasis]

theres a chance for her to refund her summons when they die/retreat

[agile hill]

oh ok

i do not want to go read radian skill stuff lmao

[stray dove]

is this one ever used? It sure does make Raidian herself be the monster.
While 1st module is a summon reuse recycle fuel

[agile hill]

you probably get even more lost with how mmuch she got

[severe oasis]

pretty sure i heard 1st one is still best

[stray dove]

makes sense

Raidian herself being the attacker ain't her biggest asset

especially since S1 cycling with 1st module is what's making Yi stall easier

[agile hill]

what does can use up to 5 summon but max 3 deployed even mean. isn't use equivalent as deployed in this case

[stray dove]

Also there's a high chance Raidian gets a 3rd module designed after her S3 summons

[stray dove]

....I've had a map that allowed me to drop 4 S2s (Temp E2 Raidian)

no clue what changes or something

[ionic cradle]

Ending 5 in a couple more aeons

[stray dove]

S1 and S2 respectively

cute af

[halcyon flame]

There’s like one usage for 2nd module

Forgot what map it was tbh

[obsidian needle]

"can use up to 5 summon" probably mean 5 charges

[halcyon flame]

Might’ve been feng shui

[severe oasis]

fucking feng shui bro

[agile hill]

what

[severe oasis]

i cant with that stage

[stray dove]

its the summons of S1 and S2 respectively

[ionic cradle]

Please time the flamethrowers

[agile hill]

but you can store up to 10, i guess maybe that is for is only

[severe oasis]

wrong stage

[ionic cradle]

Wait whar was it agai

[severe oasis]

feng shui is the one with the roadblocks and big guys that break up into 5 billion furniture

[agile hill]

flammethrower is away hui

[ionic cradle]

They sound a wee bit similar

[old geyser]

you need hitcount ops for this IS

[obsidian needle]

that fish with gun look so menacing

[stray dove]

oh yeah i didn't ask. Who's damaging Yi while you stall him if you're doing Raidian S1?

[ionic cradle]

Oh the one with the spear dudes, yeah it's ascalon/Ethan or death

[stray dove]

or do you just want everyone else dead first?

[severe oasis]

its early enough that i usually dont have any aoe besides raidian s2 when i reach it

[low vortex]

fengshui is the road blocks you place down, 3 of them

[halcyon flame]

You just stall him till kill gate ya

[ionic cradle]

A dps op on the opposite colour as him

[stray dove]

does he have phase 2 mob gating?

[halcyon flame]

Yes

[kind swan]

I found out the hard way

[stray dove]

noted

[halcyon flame]

IS6 loves kill gates

lol

Wang has a kill gate too

[south mason]

😭 😭 😭

[halcyon flame]

And ED2a

[agile hill]

oh yeah btw, fengshui routing can also screw you over and then some furniture pass through the road block if you were unlucky

[stray dove]

Sui foot doesn't iirc

[halcyon flame]

And ED4

[agile hill]

wtf is kill gate

[stray dove]

since you stall it above 50%

[severe oasis]

usually i just kill him with leizi

[halcyon flame]

Sui foot normal doesn’t

The alter version in dlc1 does

[agile hill]

oh the wave gate

[stray dove]

fucking alters

[sonic sable]

This stage cpuld be horrible at d15

[ionic cradle]

it's either have an unhittable op or have all of your dp stolen

[agile hill]

the other stage is worse btw

[halcyon flame]

It is!

But human town is worse

[sonic sable]

Garrison?

[halcyon flame]

Right side spawn anyway

[severe oasis]

i feel like this is a spawnkill or explode stage

[halcyon flame]

Yea Harrison

Garrison

[sonic sable]

My eyja helped a lot

[ionic cradle]

Ascalon

[agile hill]

yes gaarrison, people town is even more literal translation

[sonic sable]

Also that coin that makes skills automatuc actually a buff

[agile hill]

bro always have been

[stray dove]

Ford

[ionic cradle]

Include it with the thing that reduces supporter max sp by -50%

[agile hill]

unless you mean strictly the automatic part

[sonic sable]

Insta cats

[ionic cradle]

Or -40% kinda hard to rember

[severe oasis]

is6 f6 stages are pretty scary. surely the expansion ones arent worse.

[halcyon flame]

Smile

@cold fjord send the gif

[agile hill]

-40% is insane, also you gotto watch the ed 2 skill charge for exu

[sonic sable]

The boss stage felt pretty okay

[stray dove]

depends. IS3's don't have other perks tied to it so it feels like shit using non-ammo ops.
IS4 Bosky's effect and IS6's are always perks due to SP cost discount

[severe oasis]

the boss is like the easiest part of doing ed3 lmao

[sonic sable]

Yato carried hard

[stray dove]

so its like Mouthpiece? The route is harder than the boss?

[halcyon flame]

That’s the story of IS6

[sonic sable]

Does yato good in d15 ed3 too?

[halcyon flame]

The en route EMs are all harder then the actual bosses

[agile hill]

oh yeah guys what if you get to sp -40%

2*

[ionic cradle]

More conditional, but it's more on needing operators that can have a range around 3x3 area, Narantuya being peak again

[halcyon flame]

ED1, ED2A, ED3, and ED4 are all jobber

[sonic sable]

This was my roster

I love regulator squad tbh

[stray dove]

oh so that's where the Nara high tier for IS6 comes from

[severe oasis]

ed2a isnt harder than ed2?

[agile hill]

apparently standard strat actually leak less

[sonic sable]

I feel like 2 plus 3 will be pretty hard

[stray dove]

compare this to other max diff IS2-5 bosses. How jobber-tiered we talking about?

[halcyon flame]

Nope for the single reason that it has a fucking kill gate

[severe oasis]

wow

[halcyon flame]

Literally stall one enemy and then focus ur entire operator pool on killing the foot

It’s so funny

Kill gates

[ionic cradle]

This is why I gamble -30% max HP tongbao on tourist squad

[halcyon flame]

Ima be real

Easiest ones

Unironically

[stray dove]

well

IS6 does give you some really good powers

one of the better designed relics I've seen

and coin effects are nice and thoughtful

[sonic sable]

Is5 ed1 prob easiest

[halcyon flame]

Kill gates is a little silly

[severe oasis]

ive struggled more with f3 bosses and emers than the ending bosses

in is6

[sonic sable]

Of all is bosses?

[agile hill]

old fan like collectible appear pretty frequently in is6 dk why

[ionic cradle]

Tbh that lich was more of a nothing burger compared to Phantom

[sonic sable]

That fishing boss very annoying

[stray dove]

Phantom is pretty high tiered as far as Ed1 bosses go

due to how he ruins the map and his unblocked-dodge buff

[halcyon flame]

Ya that sounds about right

3 masters is diabolical sometimes

And the alter for fisherman is just lol

[ionic cradle]

mhhh maybe IS3 ed1 boss, since I kinda just Lemuen phantom nowadays

[severe oasis]

literally the only 2 ive been struggling with so i guess im not that stupid

[rough kindle]

how exactly does this work?

[sonic sable]

That stage i feel like its better if u leak tge first one

[pastel saffron]

if I am going end2 what should I pick from supporter voucher assuming I have no ange too

[stray dove]

D18 Highmore is pretty rough unless you're doing Weedy push
Speaking from experience

[sonic sable]

Raidian

[ionic cradle]

I think it's operators promoted via special battle from candle nodes

[severe oasis]

i havent beaten alter fisherman yet

i have no answer to it

[sonic sable]

Are the alter bosses random?

[severe oasis]

think so

[pastel saffron]

I take her at start, so 1 voucher

what about the next ones? ig yan ops grainbud and xingzhiu

[sonic sable]

I hsve not gotten fisherman alter

[severe oasis]

normal fisherman is fine tbh but the alter one having no safe ranged tiles is just funny

[stray dove]

rolling ancestor and IS5 encounter node that superbuffs F3 boss has been the only way we get consistent Alterification

[sonic sable]

Whats the strategy to beaf fusherman anyway?

Bro pulls everyone

[ionic cradle]

He barely deploys fishing spots near him

Looks like he priorities deploying ranged tile spots further from him and ground spot midway the map idk

[sonic sable]

Ya but hes surrounded by tailsman

[stray dove]

i mean that's the point why they're there

[sonic sable]

I need to see a vid

[agile hill]

does anyone know how to even use this? like pathfinder nodes are very valuable for ed 23 run, you rarely have excess of them before f6. or i guess its best for f6 boss fight boost, i guess boost of dps on f6 is pretty important due to you get those tanky devour enemy in that fight, so it is not uncommon to beat ed 2 and struggle ed 3 no?

[errant siren]

25% to appear.

[stray dove]

it protects him

[ionic cradle]

Hidden gets ignored so Wisadel is viable

[agile hill]

but path finder on f6 is not guaranteed

[sonic sable]

Ya i can knly beat him with wis

[agile hill]

also la fa punishment could ruin a run i think

[sonic sable]

Its not? I got one

[ionic cradle]

I think you were also meant to beat him with raidian's s2

[obsidian needle]

I usually got 2 encounter and 1 battle on f6

[agile hill]

yeah, i literally had to do one with amiya as only healer because didn't have a path finder yesterday lol

[ionic cradle]

Though you need to sacrifice an op for the spot

[agile hill]

funny troll

[sonic sable]

My gummy feels tankier than nearl

[agile hill]

but got through it because i think i have some where +300%+atk buff

[sonic sable]

Tanked yi without heal

[agile hill]

i didn't even had a defender

[ionic cradle]

Oh right dodge coin and relics also viable against Wang if they can't kill off the ball things fast enough

[agile hill]

dodge coin is always viable

[ionic cradle]

Still needs a brain for Sui

[sonic sable]

Risk coins that can end run is the sp one

Wanna activate skill? Nope

[ionic cradle]

Which? The one that only gives sp per hit?

[agile hill]

nah sp doesn't end run that much

its -40% sp cost

[sonic sable]

+20,-10 sp

[agile hill]

oh that shit

[ionic cradle]

Oh the gamble one

[halcyon flame]

The bells is pretty shit tbh

Because of how contested pathfinder is for ed3

And that it’s usually not on the same path as bosky

[sonic sable]

How high is the chance of f6 pathfinder?

[agile hill]

also it may not even be a positive ev gamble due to you are likely going to be waiting on full cap or some where thats not 20 sp away from full cap and therefore losing return

[sonic sable]

Hmm

[hasty galleon]

[burnt lantern]

Hey2, days ago i saw someone suggest to rob shop at f1 IS6.. i want to confirm if this is recommended move? And is there requirement or condition for it (e.g: only applicable at low dif)?

[stray dove]

F1 Cannot rob sounds like a joke

is it really feasible?

[obsidian needle]

they just retreat instantly

they use a squad that give them second chance

it's for early game advantage

[burnt lantern]

I tried this.. but then the game ends.. lol

[burnt lantern]

Oooh which squad is this?

[stray dove]

maybe Leader Squad with End of Times?

[obsidian needle]

yeah that one

[stray dove]

thats one way to perk up Leader Squad's early game....

I'm guessing they're using the ingots post F1-Cannot-Rob (if there's no chalice) on Recreation nodes in WiW?

[obsidian needle]

yeah just spam tavern

for 50 shield

[warm drum]

Insane run..
I got this floor 3

[stray dove]

no 2nd-skin Lin

[hasty galleon]

[burnt lantern]

I still domt get the shield stacking mechanism.. to afraid to enter fight and lose health. I already at dif 8

[stray dove]

shield has no difference to HP in terms of leak value

it's just that LP is currency in IS6

[warm drum]

Temporary recruitment is the reason why she doesn't have a skin (I also don't have her)

[stray dove]

oh i didn't check that she's Temp

jesus christ

5 out of 6 ops are borrowed

[warm drum]

Life point = your HP and currency
Shield = also your HP but not currency
Shield is used first when enemy leaked

[warm drum]

Yeeeah

The 3 supports are really good

The 6 star promoted temporary recruitments are from that one coins btw

I happened to have only few coins when that one encounter appeared

And it activated very next floor

[stray dove]

can't be too harsh on your choice picks just yet

doesn't matter until the diff is high enough or you're struggling

[brisk forge]

when you got all the summons related relics
ling and raidian spawn camp Yii, i even forgot to deploy exualter

[agile hill]

oh yeah guys, did you know that the walking chest actually increases stats based of ingot owned

[warm drum]

I forgot the boss floor drops a recruitment ticket too

[stray dove]

aren't all chests like that or something?

in IS6 at least

[burnt lantern]

Ah, what i mean is, i dont know how you guys can stack shield (intentionally)... so far my run is so randomize, sometimes i win with 1 life point, sometimes i wreck havoc .. but its random.

Already at dif 8, but i dont feel im doimg the right thing, rarely pass Doubt nodes, and always wonder how much LP i need to trade for items

[stray dove]

Did someone say Ling spawncamp?

[agile hill]

dk tbh

[stray dove]

random based on coins or relics.
Also don't leak too much or at all

[warm drum]

You can get shields from encounters... Err... Idk too.

[arctic panther]

just bribe dusk in the tavern node

she gives so much shield

[warm drum]

I've seen someone get gazillion resources somehow

Lemme get the image

[stray dove]

that might be with Ling encounter "feature"

[arctic panther]

they abused a glitch with dragon ling probably

[stray dove]

not a glitch. Just that someone found a loop

[warm drum]

Ling encounter?

[arctic panther]

in sui’s conciousness

[stray dove]

this one

[arctic panther]

you know the leisure nodes with nian and shu in dragon form?

lings there too

just much rarer

[burnt lantern]

Ah this, why we want to give up 50 inggot?

[polar flint]

wtf why does a talisman end the face-off battle as well

[stray dove]

IS6 is designed enough that the gambles are sometimes worth it

[warm drum]

I found the image

[stray dove]

just make sure your coins are planned

[polar flint]

i placed down my walter and it spawned a talisman and i lost immediately lmfao

[arctic panther]

if you have all risk coins, you can earn back those 50 ingots while getting the rewards from paying those ingots

[arctic panther]

yeah thats definitely using the ling exploit

[stray dove]

more like boredom would set in before that amt happens

[arctic panther]

and then you can go right back into the node and do the same thing again

[warm drum]

Time to collect only risk coins for the funny ling exploit

[stray dove]

it's not exactly fast to do the loop

[arctic panther]

forever.

[warm drum]

What about the candles tho

[stray dove]

support squad upgrade solves that iirc?

[polar flint]

it doesn't consume candles if you don't exit out of the node

only once

[warm drum]

Oh

Wow this is op as hell

[polar flint]

its kinda rare though

[arctic panther]

thats why she’s so rare

[stray dove]

Ling ended after I won the Balance gamble -> 65 ingots

I'm guessing that's just designed to end asap

compared to the other gamble?

[arctic panther]

wait did they actually patch out the loop?

[warm drum]

I really need to learn placements of operators more because I've been wasting candles because if it

So I'm not going to miss out on these

[polar flint]

how do you do this turmoil node with the beer car

[arctic panther]

the what

[polar flint]

in one try

[warm drum]

Exu alter destroy everything

Put exu alter next to the beer car

[polar flint]

what if i don't have her

[arctic panther]

die

[warm drum]

Errr....

Good luck

[polar flint]

my walter cant even kill it in 2 full skills

🗣️

[warm drum]

W alter? In is6?

[arctic panther]

should’ve bribed ji more

[polar flint]

walter is actually still decent for is6

[warm drum]

I thought w alter wasn't good in is6

[arctic panther]

why would you ever think that

[stray dove]

nothing beats Wis IS5 Lamp

doesn't mean she's shit

she's still great in all IS

just not godlike

[warm drum]

Because of the multi hit enemies

[arctic panther]

s2:

[polar flint]

the only stage she probably cant do is that one stage with like 20 spiked chests lmfaoo

[stray dove]

she can do S2

[arctic panther]

and her auto attacks are multihit too

[stray dove]

if you want her to kill furniture

[warm drum]

I actually don't know what her S2 is...

[obsidian needle]

and her mine can stall boss

[arctic panther]

i just said that

[stray dove]

my god you really didn't do IS5 huh

heh

[hasty galleon]

how to do something like this, or this has been patched?

[polar flint]

auto attacks but larger aoe and hits multiple at the same time

[hasty galleon]

[polar flint]

iirc

[warm drum]

Waow

[stray dove]

did you never ever use an E1 Wis in IS?

[warm drum]

Sounds good

[stray dove]

cause E1 Wis is S2

[arctic panther]

and can go into overdrive or whatever you call it

[warm drum]

Yeah never

[arctic panther]

more hits that are better suited for single target

[burnt lantern]

Can i share what i usually do, and which one went wrong:

F1: enter WIW, but since i got no op to fight, avoid fight node. Nothing much to do except hoping for luck here.

F2 and so on: always prioritize nodes that upgrade op. This mean losing so many interesting modes like face off, etc..

Usually i dont take risky move, includimg trading lifepoint at WiW.

[arctic panther]

what

[stray dove]

unless you're that scared, there's no point to "conserve" LP

[warm drum]

You should enter that area floor 2..

[polar flint]

idk i kinda just get e2 walter on first recruitment and then just breeze through everything

as long as you avoid some of the harder stages

[stray dove]

"avoiding"

sooner or later you need to learn to fight them

[polar flint]

i mean i know how to

[stray dove]

we don't have stage rerolls compared to IS4/IS5

[arctic panther]

yes we do

[polar flint]

ive done every stage on d10 already

[warm drum]

Some of the normal stages still make me lose

The ones with multi hit enemies

[polar flint]

but for the purpose of farming the points

there's no reason to trouble yourself

[pastel saffron]

which squad should i do for a raidain start?

[polar flint]

with the harder stages

if you can avoid them

[hasty galleon]

so this "infinite" ling encounter "exploit" is not patched yet right

[arctic panther]

dont know, havent tried it myself

[polar flint]

i like oyw better since it has a healer and some of the f2 stages are tough without one

[arctic panther]

-# mainly because the conditions are so hard to fulfill normally

[warm drum]

Left one is more balanced imo

[obsidian needle]

I'll pick OYW then get Windsoot, Purestream for 2 yan op

[warm drum]

I borrow tragodia and get a healer

Guard... Idk what to take for guard honestly...

[polar flint]

that one stage with mudrock golem is actually so annoying

[warm drum]

I need to level up a 4 star

[stray dove]

the one with Gramo or the one with Raidian S3 summons?

[arctic panther]

cutter

[oak birch]

i mostly pick xiaohei as 4 star guard

[polar flint]

luo xiaohei is pretty good

[stray dove]

I have never seen anyone use Cutter in IS5 or IS6 unless they're not using 6* at all

[oak birch]

his s1 saved my ass quite a lot

[slate pine]

Just curious, what is the hardest IS boss on max difficulty?

[warm drum]

If I remember correctly windscoot was a Yan operator..?

[oak birch]

yea

[warm drum]

Maybe he's a good option..?

[polar flint]

imo is4 ed4 is pretty hard

ive not played is5 yet though so i cant tell

[lofty quiver]

They "greatly increased" the chance to 0% it seems

[stray dove]

Sweats by this point consider Sentinel (IS4 Ed3 Alter) easy by this point.
I remember some rank Amiyi high for being both fun and challenging

[lofty quiver]

I must have misunderstood it somehow

[stray dove]

This is Bait's ranking.
But he mentioned that it's based on "flexibility/variety/fun" as well. Since sweats most likely have solved all bosses to not have anything "too difficult"

Izumik D18 is dificult.....just too difficult UNLESS you do Weedy push

it's the only boss that forces you to not kill it conventionally or else you need to do some niche combos to make it possible

[polar flint]

ah yeah jellyfish is really hard on high difficulties

[lofty quiver]

Amiya was fun, I had a real skin-of-my-teeth finally beating it last week. I read the mechanics but didn't understand them as well as I thought and only figured out on the third map what the deal was with the floating balls

I had her blocked right in front of the last blue box and entered second phase with only three rows of tiles left to my name

[stray dove]

Amiyi eating the balls permalocks you from dropping ops

lulz

that's quite the danger

[main roost]

Which ending is Scroll of Scars?

[paper notch]

ed2

[polar flint]

2

[main roost]

Oh yeah

This is gonna suck

[polar flint]

get butterfly node and pay em

[warm drum]

I fear the day when I have to do ed2 for raidian

[main roost]

I have to do it right now

[oak birch]

you gotta do ed3 too

[main roost]

And I am so scared

[polar flint]

whats the way to do ed3 again

[warm drum]

I'm so scared

[main roost]

Is ED3 the one with the big tree?

[pastel saffron]

if I conserve, will the ceobe stay?

[stray dove]

iirc the highest requirement I remember for a complete Raidian is D10

in other words....you're not even hitting the "middle point" which to me is D12

[polar flint]

yeah its d10 only

its not that bad

[oak birch]

[polar flint]

strat for ed2 is to gamble for ling node and just skip the entire boss fight

[warm drum]

6 more difficulties... Yeey.

[stray dove]

the difficulty scaling of diff modifiers is a fucking cliff near the final modifiers

[meager pier]

where is my wisadel tile

[burnt lantern]

If we get free one 5 star rec voucher, and save it, will it become a normal voucher (we can select op) or remain the same original 5 star.

[polar flint]

read the description

its 2 melee ops in your case

[stray dove]

LMAO

i love that

[warm drum]

.... Do I want to know how bad it is?

[stray dove]

it's showing which tiles you're restricted

[stray dove]

there's no fucking point unless you're doing it or out of curiosity

[polar flint]

i love the face-off node

[stray dove]

some of the biggest cliffs in IS is D14->D15

[polar flint]

you can also read enemy descriptions by tapping on them

[warm drum]

I'm curious

[stray dove]

lmao.....talisman'd ops burns a 3x3 area

[meager pier]

theres no way my e1 melee ops can beat that

[warm drum]

WHAT

[stray dove]

IS6 FO mixing what ground or ranged tiles allows you to drop is funny af.

at least it makes sure there's no "1 solution" in FOs

[warm drum]

I think I'm not getting to D15

[stray dove]

btw who's Xia?

cause +50% on ATK and HP is something

[warm drum]

I think that's the ed1 boss...?

Maybe..?

[stray dove]

that's Yi.....

[warm drum]

Errr...

I don't know...

[stray dove]

don't tell me...

lemme check

[pastel saffron]

This is bait right

[warm drum]

Ed4 boss...?

[stray dove]

it's Wang?

[warm drum]

Get the exu alt...

[obsidian needle]

Xia is Wang 's Ball

[stray dove]

there we go

cause by pattern

IS5 and IS6 have D13 affect ed1, D14 affect ed2, and D15 affect ed3

[warm drum]

That buff is not changing anything for me if I just go ed1!

[pastel saffron]

Mulberry Is yan right :clueless: is this also bait

[stray dove]

talisman burn tho

[cedar ivy]

Why did i try to fight yi with arts damage

[stray dove]

[narrow cosmos]

GAOO

[warm drum]

Just uhh.. use exu to destroy them

[cedar ivy]

Dif6 done, i have unlocked radians true ultimate no deployment slot summons

[warm drum]

Yeah that's a bait

[stray dove]

at the very least i can say that the diff modifiers of IS6 ain't as bullshit as IS2-4's stat stick approach

oh wait....IS6 will still get D18 in expansion 2

[pastel saffron]

what does this encounter give again?

[hearty plaza]

Her is mod not out yet unfortunately

[errant siren]

Random Relic.

[pastel saffron]

Thankyou!

[spring sluice]

hey guys im currently on IS6 D3, should i head to end2? does it unlock anything for finish end2 at D3?

[errant siren]

End3 exit

[stray dove]

oh yeah

since IS6 had relics that work around going above 99 DP

makes sense why they gave Swireter that IS mod now

[errant siren]

Guys, I found her.

🥹

They nerfed Ling so fucking hard.

[meager pier]

Lee found dead in a ditch

[errant siren]

You cannot milk her like in CN for 999+ relics anymore.

[meager pier]

yoo ling

[muted cypress]

It's 10 instead of 50?

[errant siren]

First time

I already ramped to 50.

But it's not a big deal.

[arctic panther]

because they only have 10 ingots

it scales with how many you have

-# i think

[muted cypress]

Ed2 feels easier than ed1

[errant siren]

Price increased for every entry

Up to 50

[arctic panther]

it started at 20 for me when i first found it and i had 20

[errant siren]

The issue is you will be thrown out from this Encounter after first ingot gacha.

And it will waste a candle for you.

So YOU BASICALLY CANNOT DO THIS ENDLESSLY.

🥹

[polar flint]

yeah you cant loop it anymore

you need a lot of candles and when it runs out ur gone

[errant siren]

This shit is so ass bruh.

Wanted to have 200 HP and 700 relics.

[polar flint]

tbf it was a bit overpowered

[errant siren]

But no.

😭

[polar flint]

they should catch up global to cn

so we get all the funny bugs and exploits as well

[meager pier]

so you can use a coin again on next floor if it doesnt revert ???

[arctic panther]

if it doesnt say it reverts into a dayan coin(or smth else), its reusable

[meager pier]

ok tyty

[stray dove]

btw i didn't get what happens in the Mo Yu encounter

what happens to the 3 coins that you give to her?

[rough kindle]

finally cleared ed3 at d10

[rough ingot]

Is there a single reason to pick up blademace

[arctic panther]

stats

[stray dove]

yes....because DP costs/limitations are a joke to you

so it's only perks in that situation

[paper notch]

bladedance is a really good relic wdym

[stray dove]

they meant the one that increases DP costs of ops

for more stats

[paper notch]

oh the sword in the stone one?

[stray dove]

depends which IS

different names sometimes

[paper notch]

in is6 i pick it up

[astral sentinel]

99 collectibles

[stray dove]

that background still gives me chills

as well as Ed5 bad end

[south mason]

GOD I NEED TO CLEAR ED 2 TWICE

[calm path]

So not sure if i'm imagining things, but does anyone find Raidian S2 summon does more damage to Statuegeists than expected? Like they don't even need to be on the 4 adjacent tiles

[errant siren]

Still don't know why, but whatever, I'm pleased they can do that.

[pine sun]

Radian summons scale with radian stats right?
So more level = more stats?

Also how many lives to completely ignore leftside of is6 ed2

[obsidian needle]

17

[pine sun]

Also when does the summons not take up deployment slots

[obsidian needle]

4th floor

[pine sun]

Any difficulty?

[obsidian needle]

any difficulty after you unlock her buff

[pine sun]

Which buff

[south mason]

what's the indication to know i made the hp 50%?
i will got the spesifics relic at end of match?

20sec smh feels really fast

[obsidian needle]

This one

[errant siren]

You cannot just... open Raidian upgrade menu and check?

🥹

[south mason]

oh lord

[errant siren]

Literally half of the HP bar.

And your relic that summon leg will change

To "Give 0 DP cost to random operator every battle".

[south mason]

seems like my exusiai fail to do the dmg in last second

[errant siren]

Should be complete

Check the relic

[south mason]

the feet gonna showed up right here isn't?

[errant siren]

No.

[pine sun]

Fck so thats where it was, need to get to d6 first 🙁

[south mason]

ouh that one?

the one on top left?

[errant siren]

YOU DID IT.

🥹

[south mason]

GODDAMN LEMUEL THANK YOU

[errant siren]

Now beat the leg on final.

[paper notch]

so true

but with 6 lp

i dont have high hopes

[south mason]

man, i hate this one

[young field]

Is there a way to see previous teams you used to beat and ending?

[tulip narwhal]

how

[fiery raft]

To unlock that steady stream collectible, does it have to be a regular operation? I just beat it without leaking on emergency and I didn't get it unlocked

[remote badger]

brain

[young field]

Aww man

[remote badger]

ling node gambling

[remote umbra]

If you finally manage to clear an IS difficulty do you need to win for every +1 difficulty or multiple difficulties unlock with 1 win?

[remote badger]

+1

[tulip narwhal]

the dragon node?

[remote badger]

leisure one

[remote umbra]

Raidian will take forever to max out

[stray dove]

[remote badger]

note that its rng-ish

[stray dove]

Holy shit it turned into an emer if I have Raidian

but this looks fun

[tulip narwhal]

do u have any screenshot of that node?

[remote badger]

no

[remote badger]

the just use raidian s3

[stray dove]

everyone's chained now

[sonic sable]

That relic spawning three slow machinrs feels so pointless

[stray dove]

it's free. I'll consider it in Trade

[young field]

By the way, why don't they chain with the s1/2 summons?

[stray dove]

...because it's not the same summons...

[young field]

The description says it bounces off of raidian summons in general

[stray dove]

thats not how that works

[young field]

.

[remote umbra]

Saw a solo GG clear on iS6, maybe i should use it

[stray dove]

and which skill says that?

S3, right?

[young field]

Ohhh

I see the issue

Could've been fun tho

I guess the fish don't have the dome
