Cause most of the time I start out with temp raidian and exu2
What difficulty for you bengal
It probably does. But you get very powerful if you do things right.
If you just wanna clear, grab Special Squad, don't spend any hope on recruiting anyone above 4*, get 3 to 5 recruitment vouchers on the first floor + garden and get operators get their candles right as you enter floor 2.
Maybe I'll try that instead of exu2
Should be easy.
So far, I feel Voucher Squad is more efficient to me.
And I start with Raidian.
If I get Sniper, which is more likely, recruit Wis right away, or if F1, wait for Candle in F2.
I don't recruit anyone on floor 1 with Special Squad
Trying to avoid Battles in Bosky, especially when no ATK Salad.
Having high hope in the first garden can open some good paths, too
So what's the optimal time to visit bosky?
Just save up candles for a singular bosky visit at f4/5?
When isn't (climbs into hole)
I do every time. Just prefer doing Shop/HP recover Encounter/Gamba.
Yeah, I do it every time I can
Until I get stronger.
Problem for me is when all the nodes I need to pass are just turmoils and only have a few candleguests
It's very rare for you to get stuck in garden if you don't mess up. It can happen, but it's rare
Only time i don't actively seek out garden is when i get trolled by bad nodes from all directions
So many times rng screws me over
If you trolled, well, maybe you skip Bosky and stack candles indeed.
But it's rare
If you're afraid you cannot proceed.
Like +DP cost Hour AND HE enemies + ammo refresh DP stage 
It's doubt nodes I can't pass cause I don't get the yan operator pass or the turmoil stafes
I usually don't hesitate push Doubts as well.
You can check Doubt nodes for what you need.
Like any button, but if higher is easy to achieve, I push for higher.
Is getting ed3 hard?
low HP is free. High HP is free on lower Difficulties
Yes, thankfully boss not that much.
So ur order of operations is wis priority for candleguests followed by raidian?
Well surely ed3 can't be worse than getting ed2
I usually candle Raidian faster than Wis, but I don't hesitate doing vice versa sometimes.
The only hard part about it is the pathfind fight you need to do
Everything else is easier
Ig f6 can be troublesome
I don't have Wis, but Exu alter/Raidian/Mlynar/Lemuen works great
Aka Mlynar check.
Peace sign
April, Lunacub, S3 Crownslayer
It's kind of sad Lappland Alter is kind of bad in IS6
I'm gonna follow up on this later cause I want a raidian guide on that one turmoil stage I can't get past and doesn't work with your advice specifically
You do need a few common items for it. And another operator. And use skill2
Like yeah I know I can solo with wis, I think it worked before, but e2 raidian just kept dying on that stage
Okay so it's NOT a solo raidian clear
No ,no.
I didn't say it was. But you shouldn't have just Raidian ever?
As long as the boss stage doesn't require high LP for ez win, then it's easier
I saved f1 candles into f2 bosky and got stuck
And only 1 candleguest at that point
Wasn't she amongst top pick for caster ?
I mean isn't shu top pick for defender, not like defender is a good class for is 6 either
Depending on the squad, you save all recruitment vouchers for floor 2 and use them all. It should land you at least 2 up 4 operators.
This
Supdef best starting squad lol
With haruka and hoshi alt coming up too
It doesn't. You can even clear no leaks easily, if you're confident enough.
Maybe, but her Drones get stuck on those gheists a lot. Or talismans. Or whatever else.
I don't actually like any of casters I have in IS6...
I diagnose LappyAlter users with Range issues.

Standard GG syndrome.
Maybe Necrass can be good in IS6 as far as casters go? Because she summons. But I haven't leveled her
Question: in IS6 i got the coin which lets me refresh a node.
Can i refresh the Phrophecy node? (The node before the final boss)
Why I need to put ops in danger, when I could shoot out enemies outside of danger.
(But shitty damage output)

I heard that we need much healer for the stage?
Don't think so
Why do u wanna refresh that lol
Several strong. But if you buffed enough, one is enough.
Not, really? There are maybe two or three stages you need a healer if you have Raidian.
If not, then yeah. A healer helps.
Idk, its either refresh the shop or a normal encounter.
But i have the ingot = attack speed coin/buff at 110 ingots
Yes. Penguin is in Lungmen.
I finished d14 run with Monster as a healer, but barely used her.
That kinda scared me, my best healer are quercus and lumen
Sounds good enough
This is my comp for diff4 ed1 boss.
Am i cooked? Defender E1 and reserve op as healer
Welp, for mod2&3 i shall try
How many ingnots do you have?
Should I unlock face off nodes?
Around 110 with 5 chances to reroll the coin (1 ingot for 4 ingots)
I got scout and extra pathfinder options just now
Idk if the pathfinder ones mattered either actually
lol, you are more than fine from what I can see.
i am getting fisted on guided tour 2 and i think iโm just playing the mode wrong? what kind of teams r people finding success with ?
Raidian start always the best
she isnt e2 cuz i havent beat gt2 yet ๐ญ
Borrow
oh right 
Sorted by prio - Raidian, Tragoedia, Exu Alter, a healer, a vanguard, Leumen, a Defender.
Mlynar specifically can be very good, too.
With proper relic, raidian is a beast
what starting squad is good to take ?
ive been taking first class or support squad mostly
Come to think of it, I don't like any Guards in IS6 either - apart from Mlynar. So my lowest prio for picking has been Casters and Guards.
but did you try entelechia
It's also nice you are almost guaranteed to get a couple of summon related items.
Don't have her. I am playing for less than a year.
The moment i got summon specific relics, my brain would tell me to recruit maggie
Alright. Was nice to talk to you all. Time to see if I can finish a d15 run so I can boast to my friend who has been playing since day 1.
Ok final tally of ingots.
Exu s2 will be a machine gun vs the boss
Did the mistake of not rerolling the shop node and wasting 3 coupons going to it.
Wasnt able to keep the +25% hp coin flipped
Its not the placement but the damage, some runs they one shot my tankiest operators.
Boss summons them in the horizontal lanes they are in + 1 or 2 up and down.
So you keep them at the top
And place everyone you can at the bottom
what do people use ulpi for in is6
What I'm saying is when I block him up top the operators get destroyed instantly and the rest soon after
What if you want ed2, but IS6 said "Ware-User, SHD2 x3, HE8 x1, MT14 x1"
Hmm... Summons and maybe someone with quick redeployment should do it?
And if you have Tragodia, he is great and looring boss back up.
I'll try spamming raidian s1 like what was suggested
I usually stick to Raidian s2 for that boss
not as tanky, but can clear other stuff.
In fact, I don't think I have ever used Raidian's s1?
I miss is5
The temptation is so strong
Raidian S1 is pretty darn good for ed1
Exu S2 at 253 ingots = 33 attack speed + 30 from specialist buff
- 80% attack speed from gummi who had 40 attack speed on her own
it's the best skill for f1-f3 shop rob, multiple of the bosky fights, and ending 1
unless you're taking the fights on floor 4 or 5 there aren't that many low op count options for face tanking stuff like the sarkaz twins or that one cement truck
But S2 can do that
since it also gives her barrier it's borderline necessary for some of the floor 2-3 bosky clears
S2 is too squishy for those situations
I think i have severe skill issue
not without additional help, the hammer sarkaz on d15 will 2 shot with normal attacks and 1 shot with the rage attack
And you run out of summons
Hmm... True I guess.
s1 raidian barrier is pretty much the only way she can help clear the bosky map with the missile gundam on 15
They melt like butter
unless youhave multiple relics buffing the summons they can't punch through it fast enough
especially the fist gundam circling the map
Man why're the stages with those dragons so bs
after i finally managed to reach floor 5 with sui squad and them dragons got me cooked 
How do y'all deal with the true damage 
which dragons?
Pseudomuts prob
those don't deal true damage
The vore dragons
is this the yu event cauldron?
Oh unlit sparks prob
The one's that go round and round the map
Dealing true damage to everyone on the way
do you know how the cauldron charges?
Why do i see humus alot what he do
it charges via absorbing the little grey thingies to gain sp, attack little gray thingies to change to red thingie that will charge your dragon instead
Best ground unit early
ngl this IS twerks on people that weren't playing during the Yu event
cus they have no clue how the cauldron works
imagine ed1 map being their first experience with the coin frog

So the grey thingies r the one's that charge enemy cauldrons yeah?
i just had to attack those to convert em into red one's?
the flowing grey wisps that the enemies spawn can be attacked to convert them to red ones, which will charge your own cauldron
the enemies can attack the red ones to convert them back
the enemy cauldron and your cauldron are on different parts of the map
when yours is charged you get a friendly dragon if you activate the cauldron
I should've figured this out b4 doing those stages 
the little thingies will float towards the appropriate cauldron depending on friendly/enemy status
and do not drain lp
It's that map that unlocks via an encounter innit?
ending 1 map, the Yi boss fight
Ah
the pre spawned enemies are random, and one of the options is a Yu event enemy that looks like a frog with a coin in its mouth
that oneshots the first thing it sees

figuratively, at your current selected difficulty it probably won't
When does it start appearing? After difficulty 10 or sum? 
this is one of the stages in the Yu event, you can watch to see how the wisps behave

random, just it gets dummy stats as the difficulty rises
This one is pretty useless if you are going the candle promotion route.
Always refresh this
Which one should I pick?
basically
pay a lot
pay less, give up the collectible
fight
Is the fight hard?
last time I saw it was on d6 or something
there's a bunch of the flying sarkaz suicide disks, and like 6 statuegeists
Depends on ur difficulty level, with radian fairly okayish ig?
Ok
tbh, just do it to experience it
Does Ela count as ranged or melee unit in IS6 face off?
Thanks
Does this work with the ED3 Relic?
^for IS6, the relic that makes you ops take damage every second
it does
ty
How much damage red artillery drone does in IS6 or it is just instakill? 
there are 2 types. The one with 9 enemies and the one with 4 lanes and radar cars.
Radar cars are 14k damage, so pretty much instakill. 9/9 ones are 3.4k apparently, so be tanky or perish
what 
which map are you refering to with the artillery drones?
He means map where radar cars reveal operators on vent have oneshot red drone
guess by my current name
bobm
What would happen if I vertical path prophecy mode?
Here we go, for Ware-User
Huh try it lmao
shit, thisi issn't salt mines
I meticulously counted my coupon to exhaust on the second to last floor.
who should I pick? ๐ค i have raidian e2 in the squad too as well as exu alter e1
are you doing ed3?
not rn no
jessica ig
you just get another choice to change the ending

Does anybody else forget to refresh the shop when doing F1 shop rob? I've bricked my runs so many times like this, so annoying ๐ญ
This is the d15 experience of everything costing coupons dw
There are no free resets anymore
does the 2nd option give more rewards?
What does this do? Can you light up multiple operators in this option?
Depends on which floor you do it
what node is this?
Yes, if you clear the battle - IIRC option 1 is normal battle and option 2 is emergency
The one where we can choose using recruitment voucher with -2 hope or light up a candle for 1 operators
I never try the special battles. Can it light up multiple operators?
Depends which floor its on
You can light up 2 operators in this if you are on floor 4+, otherwise only 1 operator. This is similar to a face-off node, except the chosen operator will need to survive for a set amount of time to clear the stage
Survive in this case meaning survive lightning which scales on a random stat
operator's attack, ingots owned stuff like that
Does F6 of ending 3 have a way to use reserved vouchers?
Sometimes it has a pathfinder node
oh, it is not guaranteed, I didn't know that
Sometimes ๐
Better than no chance ig
Ty
Think its high chance but still possible for it to lowroll
f6 is the only floor where I have used the combat option, it gave me some insane stage with royal drones
f6 pathfind
Scales based on your units attack
You have giga broken relics
Lightning one shots
yeah dont do that
I never got support vouchers for Raidian, so I had to do combat, somehow she survived, but that run was really scuffed because I never lit up a medic
but 300 hp on enemy killed relic somehow made it possible
what's the optimal way to beat Ed3 at A15? should I rob shop at F1?
Optimal everything in is6 is just raidian start shop rob f1
Why not? Shops arent likely to show up later in the run, you can spend your ingots other ways in bosky, you get one more fight f1 which means one extra level up which means more vouchers + extra hope for f2 pathfind
Its just goated
shop is guaranteed floor 1. almost every other floor you want to path to bosky
better than F3+ shop then huh to spend ingots
oh
I should prio bosky/path over shop
Shop is so hard to get to I've had multiple runs ending with almost 100 ingots unused
F3 shop is good but its not guaranteed and its way harder with the enemies actually scaling in stats now, a single buffed mob can absolutely destroy raidian summons
Tavern nodes ๐
True
so ingots are better spent in bosky over cannot shop?
No but pathing terribly to get a shop isnt advised
You'd much rather get bosky and pathfind nodes
is it better to spend ingots in sui's consciousness if u have the relic or tongbao that gives aspd for ingots?
best squad to use in is6?
do you guys know how i get new coins?
Schizo arc @gaunt bay
Yappy new year 

is there an aspd cap?
How are you supposed to rob cannot at F1 at A15? He just starts putting tags on my E1 ops
Raidian s1 and another carry unit
One of the squads gives ends of times
Where you can just lose
or that
And still get it
Anyone knlws how to clear that three mini boss stage? I always leak one there
i remember raidian s3 doing pretty well on that cliff of geists stage
The problem is its a gimmick stage where you're meant to shift enemies
on f3
Who has a shifter ready by f3 
Also you can do raidian s1 and shrimply frame perfect blockshift everyone but who has time for that
what do you gain from shiting and how many do you have to shift?
Its like 5 ingots per enemy or something
so shrimple 
oh wtf
Some walk off naturally(along the path) but it's so easy to accidentally kill em when killing the cars
we should all start drafting weedy for this encounter
Mizuki
Me
Other than spec/cast (its literally just specialists)
Thats why i lose
I mean if ypu start with exu ur second spec vpuchr will be an ambusher
draft weedy then
your second voucher will be to candlebearer exu2 
No you do exu e1 > mizuki pre e2
Thats a thing
what does pre e2 mean?
oh you support borrow exu
If you draft a support unit, you can save the promotion for your next voucher
yeah
Last attempt at getting raidian E2 voucher.
Imagine going the entire run with radian E1 from starter squad
and e2 mizuki as candlebearer?
Yeah and hopefully get another spec voucher too to have both exu and mizuki for bosky but if not thats fine you can get by with raidian mizuki prob
What do u draft as caster in caster spec lol
either nothing or go global burn tbh
global burn when i fucking make 30 hope vanish
Just draft nymph/logos and skip them all
err
No the fuck he is not
he isnt
Your d0 experience yes of course
then why does literally any good d15 player disagree
yeah bro totally
is the 'candleguests get +40% atk once a candleguest is promoted via combat' relic, retroactive when an op is recruited after acquiring the relic?
i only play D15
not retroactive
dammet
who is a "good" D15 player
Cube only person I listen to โค๏ธ
Find me someone else who shills yu
I dunno, supposedly he's weak, but I don't remember too many balls up, and it seemed like he didn't want to take a ton of damage
so if i acquire the relic from f3 boss, promote a few candleguests via combat, and get exia on f5, exia doesnt get the relic buffs?
oh that's what you mean? the relic is based on stacks
yeah
im a supp/def shill
it buffs them all
it just needs upto 4 stacks
idk who else here is
Def/supp drafts Raidian, Hoshi alt, Haruka, Trag alt
so even if i get exia just before f5 boss, she gets all the buffs?
Yu is not on the list
but
ye
and are they out rn
"saved" cause you drafted like shit with drone caster
talm bout rn
Do you also do raidian
i dont even draft mech accords
Ok but you play raidian, you can afford to draft anyone when she's on the team
Do yu without her
See what happens to your hope
Oh, oh this is not cool
sounds easy
3 voucher save limit
from wiki.gg
When an Operator becomes a Candleholder through combat, all Candleholders gain +40% ATK, return 4 DP after deployment and have -4% redeployment time (up to 4 stacks).
ill just wait for hoshi though
Also if you say yu is useful then proceed to do ed1, that doesnt count either lmao everyone clears ed1
oh you said 'needs'
what other defender options are there even rn
Shu/Saria for ed3 otherwise you skip
who else woild you draft besides yu
oh mb on the wording
yeah no worries, that just threw me off a bit thats all. ty
Hes good in ed3 too
...
How
tp everything
from other lanes
AHAHAHAHA
This guy cant be real
he makes it trivial
ed3?????

yes??
so just to reiterate, if i pick up exia on f5 just before f5 boss, she benefits from all the buffs ? @paper notch
Chat we castrate this guy
the ending where half the enemies oneshot yu when they touch him?
or make him useless?
do you want an example??
Be nice furillo 
Itโs not their fault
thats it
she should ye. the collectible has the number of stacks on it and it affects candlebearers. the same stacks mechanic can be seen on the Metal Expedition Drum and Homemade Stir-fry
Yes
im just showing you my setup
I actually do
The fact that you completely ignored the wall breakers and opened anyway is something
Yeah its prob a 40 relic run which maxed out coin or something which is why I'm asking for stream
Thank you for timestamps ๐
yeah uh
reed died
Is there a guide in English for is6 kettle collector strat ?
i have one on my channel 1 sec
The IS6 Perpetual Motion Machine Original Author: Oka (ๅฅฅๅก), youxiniao.com Edited by: Mouse In Integrated Strategies #6, there is a strategy dubbed โ็ต่กจๅ่ฝฌๆตโ, or โThe Energy Meter flows backwardsโ, where you aim to achieve an infinite loop within Suiโs Remnant Consciousness, the IS6 equivalent of ...
oh theres a doc
@low vortex can you add this. To pins
yeah thats better anyw
I know ur sleeping rn but teehee
'aight. d15 boss 1 done. It was suprisingly... Easy?
Ok so: Stir fry coin, of course (assuming not that high of stacks on coin cause got it on f5)
Had infinite sp saria carrying for healing (Which was temp btw, which further proves my point of saria > yu in your own run...) , wouldve died otherwise since your reed got one shot.
Rest of the ed3 clear is just leizi + trag (with ah meng making him kill everything) + raidian very standard strat, yu was blocking boss but anyone can cause bro is a pushover really.
Also blew up to ed2 and leaked like 22 ๐ญ idk what this clear proves tbh
Sorry for hate watching ๐ซก
i just knew you were gonna mention the temp saria
Is it also just raidian trag leizi ๐ญ
That sounds slightly more interresting sure
its just the exact same thing
So also raidian s2 carry?
i couldve done it without raidian since i had 50 LP but yeah
in IS6, how do we promote via combat??
i guess
pathfind fight or one specific coin
29 collectibles
but yeah im js saying yu aint that bad
hes in pretty much all my D15 clears
Oh I'm not saying he's like worst operator ever
just like below shu and saria, and even those aren't worth drafting most of the time
I love Yu, actually
hehe 
Pre haruka/hoshi it aint great
most of the power of def/supp comes from early promoted raidian so you can greed bosky
and shop rob teehee
And that
Prob trag start save instant e2 for raidian
for trag or smth idfk
no without raidian
Without raidian, erh idk if hoshi start works

Or like trag start pivot hoshi e2
class squads now requiring support unit starts is so goofy
๐ฅ
whats the better haruka skill for IS is it still s2
s3 with levitation relics?
im guessing
I'm assuming haruka is good for ed3? iunno too much about her
Shes very good for ed3
Best healer to put in the middle
Can clear the flaws during his P2
heal + sanc + back row coverage
yea
@.@
I keep telling myself I don't care if I get haruka or hoshi because I'm only rolling one
lowkey I want haruka
Both are great
hoshi s3 hits air right
In terms of IS6 Hoshi is more of a carry earlygame type of unit, shes not great in the endings
Haruka is alright in the endings but very good en route against some EMs
So
Enrouteslop
๐ฅ
Sure but she carries your entire bosky

With good relics she can also hold ed2 left
Good relics only
can hoshi hit air with s3
oh wait it does?? ok sweet
thnx shields
@nocturne cape yea man expansion is fair and balanced
uwu
vertical pathing is a moment
whats the strat on robbing cannot F1
Should I be pathing to get a pathfinder node every floor
Okayge done
iunno how to improve
me too curie
me when i use 4 candles on 1 stage
ty king
@nocturne cape what was the pram left side solve for ed2 again
wat skill
S1
Ig s2 works too
does the f3 bosky entry item appear on refresh
No rose is dalao
i fell off kiwi
Should I be pathing to get a pathfinder node every floor
how do you deal with this stage? I thought I can finally do it with low cost vanguard but they still drained my dp before I can deploy them
generally bosky > pathfinder is my experience but you try to get both if at all possible
vg
or some lowcost ops
You dont, its really bad
Sad
Is this ED3 node?
what does this even do
does it refresh a random explored node in SRC when tossed or is there some way to manually refresh a node
manually
refresh button
Fighting ed1 boss at A15, and then the Ed3 boss. Am I screwed? I never got a medic voucher aside from before the pathfinder event
If you can get eyja candleholder on f6 you're chilling prob
If not well huh
good luck
Yeah I think Special Squad is my favorite IS6 squad. Makes even D15 F1 Cannot rob easy with more dep limit, Ethan, Wis, Raidian, and a medic.
Chat any recommended squad
how do i kill yi with radian
ts is kinda hard
cuz her explodies just jump all my summons
a pair of old sandals and dodge relics
died on the f1 boss because I also never got any more guard or specialist vouchers
do i just mega buff supporter relics
f5
if you can yeah
does it only apply to certain nodes or?
meow
what the fuck
okay, I haven't done any IS since the run I did back on the 26th, but I noticed I can do 3 new squad types now
should I do the next run with Special Squad again or use one of the new ones? (Tactical Ranged, High Ground Breach, or Ground Breach)
Yea
First choice
I'm so annoyed that I realized a bit late that you can just....drop a ground unit on top of the Talisman spawncampers on the left and they immediately slide off the holes....
Lmaoo i thought this was common knowledge
i previously just
attacked it ranged
until I just dropped either Ya2 or Raidian S2 on them
special squad after e2ing raidian
either that or the breaching squad
thats why its so good

makes it easy to get an E2 Wis and/or Raidian candled too
just need 1 voucher for each
Wadafuq
salad loves this man
either that or ji
Lemme guess, coupon on statuegeist + the bosky maps that have like 8 of them?
Refreshing the shop that containing coupons eh
they couldโve done ling exploit too
surtr tanking yi I'm guessing?
Shoutout to the support collectible that debuffs enemies under the support attack radius
yes and no
normally id stall with ops but i got lucky to bring surtr to speed up the kill
Yi didn't get to spawn proper and was already down to second phase
idea was to put raidian on top left to face the spawn point so she debuffs Yi while surtr tanks and chunks at it as i spam the drones
moment his HP hits 0, pull out both raidian and surtr for re-deployment
(also that one meebo holding yi hostage at the top stage, 25% dodge lol)
this has to be the only IS i made huge progress
this coin roll
Bloodshed spill has no downsides
How
At A15? damn
lol no this is d0 monthly
lol
she probably COULD still do it at high diff given she killed him in seconds
would just need healing
reason why is that I had both the arts thorns on blocked enemies collectable (you start with it w/ the monthly squad) and the other mask one that's +/- 50% damage to blocked enemies
and then every defender book except sp
defender books are insane in this IS especially w/ the blocked enemy collectables and rightmost op collectable
unfortunately no confusion nodes
this was a run I had at iirc D7 while doing raidian progression, while having the SP book as well. her shield was probably in the range of 70k
i got 16 alone from odd merchant appearing thrice for some reason
then the rest from random turmoil nodes
at high diff she would blow up to the minions 
17k hp aint enough
if there was i wouldve had 50-60
but why tanking the fucking bombs
I mean I haven't done D15 but I know at D14 that Guardmiya can survive briefly against the bombs 
highrolling
am i doing something wrong or yi is literally immortal without elemental dmg at like a9 and above?
are you trying to dps him with an operator on the same color tile as his current buff
floor 1 butterfly
how crazy i am chat
well, my exu died and i was left with ente and degen
is steady stream only shows up on first couple floor or something?

should I do a new IS run with special squad (+2 squad size and deployment limit, 5 reserve ops at start), tactical ranged (4+* sniper and medic ops cost 1 less hope to recruit & promote, first recruitment ops are promoted instantly and recruit vouchers show up in shops more), high ground breach (4+* caster, sniper, medic, and supp ops cost 2 less hope to recruit), or ground breach (4+* vg, guard, defender, and spec ops cost 2 less hope to recruit)? I wanna see how these new squads work eventually, but if any are good to try out now I'm down to see
You donโt have to explain to us what every single squad does
๐ญ ๐ญ
If youโre starting Iโd do high ground breach
special squad is pretty good
even before its upgrade its more forgiving early on and the +deploy and squad size can be really comfy
true!
which voucher set? I've got a couple units upgraded since the last run (mostly Gnosis, I'm working on Amiya for the story requirement)
cheeto but no m3

how can you promote to candleguest like that?
WTF happened here?
when did these bosses decide to 1 shot ops?
I have no Risk coins tossed
+30% apparition atk debuff? it do that
What's the targeting of that dragon leg boss?
In pathfinder
ayo
nice!
I just did the thing
held Yi hostage with Nian
Lmao.
should i take this? i already beat the dragon foot fight if thats what tthis is
Also funni coin of everyone being forced to take 100 true damage a second unless on specific tiles
i think this gives new ending
So far my only 2 wins were with special squad so it gets my vote
just having extra bodies is pretty clutch
other Sniper options for ed2 other than Wisadel?
gives the sui fight ending but should i bother on difficulty 4 when i beat him before?
might be more difficult so i wouldn't risk it
goated floor 1 shop
generational shop rob right there
basically wang (the boss) will spawn his balls on the map every so often and every time you deploy an operator, a ball will spawn in a random adjacent tile
if a friendly unit has a ball in all four cardinal sides they are perma-stunned and will die (since you already got here you probably already know)
How about the Garrison stage? Any tips to clear it? It's my first encounter with it
i always go with inferno so i have no idea what inside it
can have the full image of your pfp please i cant find it
mine?
Ask about is6
Is dragon hand (ed2) will appear on turmoil?
he'll keep harassing you in any battle (including turmoil and special battles like robbing cannot and encounters) until you get him to 50% for the first time, in which he'll stop indefinitely
note that its mandatory otherwise you wont get the collectible needed for the prophecy node
thank you
no problem
doing the sightseers scroll feels so trivial after having worked my way up to d15 on normal runs
ending 2 still sucks really bad
because that BS just happened
I couldn't even handle the right side yet alone the left, and I only had 17 HP to start with
tbh just ignore the sharpedges
the 35 hit brass spears are just not worth it
again, right side was the problem
I lost Raidian and Exu 2, but that was a timing issue on my part
yeah thats why just allocate most of you defense to the left
for right just farm shields to leak
no, right side is the one you defend, then leak the left side is the typical thing to do
damn im been lobotomizing myself so much on IS5 i forgot my left and right ๐ญ
I did try and do something on the left side, but the major leaks/wipe was from the right side
I had a ton of ASPD too
right right i forgot the majority of the high ground was beside it
skillfully draft yato
trag not rly useful for ed2
I was using Candleguest ops for the ASPD buff
and at that point in the run, it was probably a loss anyway

paralyze bottlegeists?
whatever happens in ed2 just yato it im ngl
not sure but didnt ammo count as normal attacks
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
btw what raidian skill were you using?
s2 i hope
S2

this has to be the singular worst placement for this map i have ever seen
had an otherwise promising attempt at d15 ed2 cut short by EM Take the Stage. the cannoneer just would not die
omg hi mika
happy new year
Still hunting ED2..
omg hi laqera :MintHype:

I swear sometimes I'm not even sure if going to Bosky F2 is worth it
bait with Tragodia
wtf...
๐ข
ok, how do you handle it when it's here?
this sucks
why am I having such awful luck?
I am robbing cannot *^^
roadblock should be one space to the left of where you put it so they have to go around
which one?
the one you have placed in that screenshot
there's 3 in that screenshot
the first one
I see that now
making them go around the top left and then putting raidian s2 summons on the second row facing left should buy enough time to get Wiลก'adel out
that makes sense, I'll note that for next time
I HATE GREEN HILLS WITH 3 SPIKED CHESTS I HATE GREEN HILLS WITH 3 SPIKED CHESTS I HATE GREEN HILLS WITH 3 SPIKED CHESTS
this new Tetris is kind of wild
Fucking green hills is ass because for some reason none of my ops were doing enough damage and there were 3 fucking spiked chests in a row
Ye idk how to play this new IS none of the tokens/coins make sense on how they help. Never get enough of anything to do much in the grotesque nodes either smh skill issue
Is there any starter other than this list (e1)
ExuAlt Radian Trag Leizi Kal Intel narun
Which part do you need help with?
vampire lady? She's good here?
go on. How is she at A15
At least she can starter
mizuki w/ is module, you can possible cope on chetto
if e1 only then probably just kal
I want someone else other than this
Tell me if u found 1
Don't tell me saki or hoshi alter or any unreleased op ty
penance as long as it isn't emergency to market
Oh peanace can? I wanna try :D
and emergency serious business any melee op at E1 isn't tanking big bob unless it's mudrock maybe
I've heard Entelechia can be used
Oh then not a stable starter then
It's all around skill issue for me, If the grotesque stage node is what we're supposed to try our best to get to I never have enough life points, haven't had any good operator vouchers/enough hope points, IDK what are good coins nor how they help, idk how many runs I've been through that have only tossed crap coins, etc. I'll probably have to turn to a guide on how to play this tbh. Raidan isn't really helpful imo and I know that's just skill issue. All this and I'm only on guided tour 1 btw lol.
Yes I alr write that in list
But uh just wrong name, I write as intel
Fml
What's ur starter?
ngl, raidain needing IS to progress has resulted in a lot of people with 0 IS experience jumping into the mode
tbh you don't need to rely much on the tongbao since it's low diff
Also radian is kinda hard for a normal player
I mean all summoner is hard for a normal player
Especially mag
i'm not sure where to start on advice for these people, a lot of the regular denizens of this channel have been playing IS since 2 or 3
we were born in the darkness
molded by it
I WAS LITERALLY AT THE END. LUGALZARGUS HAD A SLIVER BUT HE HAD TO WAVE DASH WHEN THE SHEILD GUARD WAS NEXT TO IT
Iโm having a headache
If u r below 10 u can do tragodia start
rip
for better or worse...
I wonder if they're gonna do smth like Raidian again
usually try and go for exusiai alter specialist, Wisadel sniper, tragodia, lapp alter high ground units
most of my low ground units I "luck" out on defenders
rusthammer IS and ceobe alter
trust
lowkey casters are kinda bad this is
All caster is not that good in this IS
that sucks 'cause most of the vouchers i get in runs is caster
What difficulty are you at.
Rule of thumb for coins:
Flower: always beneficial, but some can only be used once.
Balance: Situational but no real gameplay changes. Like Flower, some can only be used once.
Risk: High risk, high reward. Some coins give both you AND the enemies a buff as a tradeoff, but some are purely negative and some others have unique utility.
You'll always start F1 with relatively meh coins.
For Hope Saving and Raidian, Use hope on your fav ops and raise Raidian to be useful. Try her out with special squad
Lappland Alter has gotten me some value virtue of high hit count and global range but none of the others have done much for me
the dp pressure is very significant, there are alternatives that don't take up a valuable high ground unit at 20+ dp
the first 1 lol
Or maybe u can wait for saki, she good in this IS
tbh I've gotten more value out of indigo than any of the 6 star casters
These are great starts. When you get the hang of the mechanics it's a breeze
really? interestinf
*interesting
bind + arts dot
like I try to go for emergency ops every run or the grotesque nodes but I don't even wanna start going for ending 2 even if I knew how until I can get fairly consistent runs on ed 1
Basically this IS need some time to learn
So it's not simple like IS5
(Yes that idiot talisman and dragon mouth)
Did you buy upgrades on the shop?
this IS is kind of a bitch in general
Almost at the final boss...
Also the candleguest
in a love/hate way
only have 30 coins invested so far
emergency green hills speak not when hour of sui: shen-chu is active
In every IS, it's normal to be filtered at the first few runs
This three are the worst in this IS
and I can only usually reach it in the first floor
In the IS6 Menu, look at the number on the left panel before you press start
I need to run ED3 on a lower difficulty before I feel comfortable tackling whatever that is
wym? the investment system? Guided Tour? I only have 22 in ageless erudition
when you upgrade leader squad you can spam invest easily since it lets you bail out a fight free
Btw may I know what u do during 2 floor?
Ageless. This is probably your first IS, so you'll want to buy some upgrades
these are permanent and stick to you in future runs
lmao it's not but I totally forgot about the upgrades until now. I kinda feel stupid for complaining without checking haha
I've played all the previous ones
still managed to win after losing 21HP
U can up the raidian squad first
not sure where the other 4 came from
lol
I've just never reached the last ending usually
You get so many life points this IS its absurd
The last ending need u done e2 first
too bad you leak them just as quickly
real shit
like is5 is probably my fav but I can't get past ending 4 but that's an issue for another day lol
especially with nian and support squad
but i really want that boss bgm lol
ragebaiting a feranmut 7 times in a run
you "can" get so many life points it's absurd
so basically in this IS, even if you get tongbao with no effect, it's better than getting a toss with only negative effects.
the key is not to lose them
whats the synergy? just a lot of money to play with Nian?
I avoid most "risks"
there's a couple I take on purpose though
The simplest way is
Raidian squad, catch Exu
Floor 1 shop steal and go dragon body
F2~5 find ending> body > guest > other
nah
yeah, generally I like to have a lot of ingots because I rng plans to get stove alight or hopefully get a golden chalice along the way
why steal F1?
And also a hot tips
U can reroll tongbao
not all of them. Some are just straight up +res/hp/atk/def to enemies because fuck you
hp is also easy to buy back from tavern
because you can get HP back in Bosky
Cuz normally u don't go other floor shop
ic
and 10 ingots for shields? Hell fucking yeah
btw advice for the fights on F6? both kinda kick my ass. The boss and whatever the other one is called
and also for the off chance if you see a ling node you just win
@halcyon flame @cold fjord bro
how broken
tian tian
boss and whatever the other one is called
Since u only lose 1~5hp during F1 shop
Not rlly lot enemies can kill Exu+raidian s1 combo
i got the talisman invuln into talisman invul on cannot rob earlier
so you stall with S1 and pop Exu until the enemy's die?
Yes
And 3 16 open radian skill
huh
The enemy ded count
sisphyus
and i was using this on f3
Ending 1 still can
do you worry about the middle lane?
Middle? There only talisman
wtf avenger + watch
the two big guys at the end
Stall them with radian summon
instant 6* M3, who do I waste use it on?

i played this stage eariler
funny stage
cant wait for it to come to EN a
drop the options gng.
adn watch everyone explode on it
Crownslayer s2
she's already M3
oh god
also what was the cap for ASPD
600
S2
I literally have hundreds of unused mats
she's terrible, there's nothing salty about that
wait nvm
but I get your point
It useful trust me
She give even lesser dodge than flametail s2๐ฅ
And only 9 tile
I literally only use her for Base
Ew
yeah so there's really no reason to stockpile more than 450 ingots with golden chalice then
shame
At least u get happiness
you know they're cracked as hell when they're static in the end frame of their attack animation
๐
^
end3?
yeah
aoe/global
specter gaming
I got specter alter Lappland2 and Logos
for aoe
trag too ig but he's not 60k damage
what diff
End3 clear the black dot and don't keep placing unit
I'm at 10 rn
And don't place unit if there r 4 black dot around
I figured that one out during the pathfinder fight
