errant siren
#

Yes.

alpine solar
#

Cause most of the time I start out with temp raidian and exu2

errant siren
#

I even able to recruit her during the run and E2.

#

So fast.

alpine solar
#

What difficulty for you bengal

errant siren
#

Opened 15

#

Passed 15 with End1 only rn

alpine solar
#

Hm, what's your typical squad start

#

Wis and who else

gusty olive
#

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.

alpine solar
#

Maybe I'll try that instead of exu2

gusty olive
#

Should be easy.

errant siren
#

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.

gusty olive
#

I don't recruit anyone on floor 1 with Special Squad

errant siren
#

Trying to avoid Battles in Bosky, especially when no ATK Salad.

gusty olive
#

Having high hope in the first garden can open some good paths, too

errant siren
#

When I do have E2 Wis/Raidian and Salad, I push every single battle I found.

alpine solar
#

So what's the optimal time to visit bosky?

#

Just save up candles for a singular bosky visit at f4/5?

hardy scaffold
#

When isn't (climbs into hole)

errant siren
#

I do every time. Just prefer doing Shop/HP recover Encounter/Gamba.

gusty olive
#

Yeah, I do it every time I can

errant siren
#

Until I get stronger.

alpine solar
#

Problem for me is when all the nodes I need to pass are just turmoils and only have a few candleguests

gusty olive
#

It's very rare for you to get stuck in garden if you don't mess up. It can happen, but it's rare

hardy scaffold
#

Only time i don't actively seek out garden is when i get trolled by bad nodes from all directions

alpine solar
#

So many times rng screws me over

errant siren
#

If you trolled, well, maybe you skip Bosky and stack candles indeed.

gusty olive
#

But it's rare

errant siren
#

If you're afraid you cannot proceed.

hardy scaffold
#

Like +DP cost Hour AND HE enemies + ammo refresh DP stage FrankaWheeze

alpine solar
#

It's doubt nodes I can't pass cause I don't get the yan operator pass or the turmoil stafes

errant siren
#

I usually don't hesitate push Doubts as well.

gusty olive
#

You can check Doubt nodes for what you need.

errant siren
#

Like any button, but if higher is easy to achieve, I push for higher.

pearl kindle
#

Is getting ed3 hard?

gusty olive
#

low HP is free. High HP is free on lower Difficulties

errant siren
alpine solar
#

So ur order of operations is wis priority for candleguests followed by raidian?

hardy scaffold
#

Well surely ed3 can't be worse than getting ed2

errant siren
prime mountain
#

Everything else is easier

#

Ig f6 can be troublesome

errant siren

errant siren

Aka Mlynar check.

It's kind of sad Lappland Alter is kind of bad in IS6

alpine solar
gusty olive
alpine solar
#

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

gusty olive
#

No ,no.

alpine solar
#

I thought there was some secret tech

#

I was missing

gusty olive
#

I didn't say it was. But you shouldn't have just Raidian ever?

pearl kindle
alpine solar
#

I saved f1 candles into f2 bosky and got stuck

#

And only 1 candleguest at that point

#

Aggregated across all difficulties

wraith warren
errant siren
gusty olive
#

I don't actually like any of casters I have in IS6...

wraith warren
#

I don't too

#

Never pick a caster

errant siren
#

Standard GG syndrome.

gusty olive
#

Maybe Necrass can be good in IS6 as far as casters go? Because she summons. But I haven't leveled her

remote umbra
#

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)

errant siren
#

Why I need to put ops in danger, when I could shoot out enemies outside of danger.

#

(But shitty damage output)

pearl kindle
wraith warren
errant siren
gusty olive
errant siren
#

I basically go with Monsta and feel OK.

remote umbra
#

Idk, its either refresh the shop or a normal encounter.
But i have the ingot = attack speed coin/buff at 110 ingots

errant siren
#

Yes. Penguin is in Lungmen.

gusty olive
#

blobthonk I finished d14 run with Monster as a healer, but barely used her.

pearl kindle
#

That kinda scared me, my best healer are quercus and lumen

gusty olive
#

Sounds good enough

remote umbra
#

This is my comp for diff4 ed1 boss.
Am i cooked? Defender E1 and reserve op as healer

pearl kindle
#

Welp, for mod2&3 i shall try

serene jetty
#

Should I unlock face off nodes?

remote umbra
#

Around 110 with 5 chances to reroll the coin (1 ingot for 4 ingots)

serene jetty
#

I got scout and extra pathfinder options just now

#

Idk if the pathfinder ones mattered either actually

gusty olive
cerulean willow
#

i am getting fisted on guided tour 2 and i think iโ€™m just playing the mode wrong? what kind of teams r people finding success with ?

pearl kindle
#

Raidian start always the best

she isnt e2 cuz i havent beat gt2 yet ๐Ÿ˜ญ

oh right LappDumb

I prob had a stroke when writing it

Should be e1 max

With proper relic, raidian is a beast

cerulean willow
#

what starting squad is good to take ?

#

ive been taking first class or support squad mostly

gusty olive
#

blobthonk 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.

gusty olive
gusty olive
prime mountain
#

Start with her!

#

The agenda must be maintained

pearl kindle
gusty olive
#

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.

remote umbra
#

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

true wind
#

Its not the placement but the damage, some runs they one shot my tankiest operators.

gusty olive
#

So you keep them at the top

#

And place everyone you can at the bottom

onyx pollen
#

what do people use ulpi for in is6

true wind
hardy scaffold
#

What if you want ed2, but IS6 said "Ware-User, SHD2 x3, HE8 x1, MT14 x1"

gusty olive
true wind
#

I'll try spamming raidian s1 like what was suggested

gusty olive
#

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?

true wind
#

I miss is5

round trellis
#

The temptation is so strong

nocturne cape
#

Raidian S1 is pretty darn good for ed1

remote umbra
round trellis
#

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

gusty olive
#

blobthonk But S2 can do that

round trellis
#

since it also gives her barrier it's borderline necessary for some of the floor 2-3 bosky clears

nocturne cape
#

S2 is too squishy for those situations

supple vector
#

I think i have severe skill issue

nocturne cape
#

Wayyy too squishy

#

If you use S2 to block the mech they die in less than 5 sec

round trellis
nocturne cape
#

And you run out of summons

gusty olive
#

Hmm... True I guess.

supple vector
#

Like I can't get e2 raidian

#

Cuz I can't beat guided tour 1

nocturne cape
#

If you attempt to use S2 for shop rob on D15

#

1 invuln is all it takes

round trellis
#

s1 raidian barrier is pretty much the only way she can help clear the bosky map with the missile gundam on 15

nocturne cape
#

They melt like butter

round trellis
#

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 bsBnuuy after i finally managed to reach floor 5 with sui squad and them dragons got me cooked BPTiredofThis

#

How do y'all deal with the true damage SkadiDaijoubu

round trellis
#

which dragons?

nocturne cape
#

Pseudomuts prob

round trellis
#

those don't deal true damage

true wind
#

The vore dragons

round trellis
#

is this the yu event cauldron?

nocturne cape
#

Oh unlit sparks prob

spark socket
#

Dealing true damage to everyone on the way

round trellis
#

do you know how the cauldron charges?

spark socket
#

I didn't play that event SkadiDaijoubu

wraith warren
#

Why do i see humus alot what he do

round trellis
#

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

nocturne cape
#

Best ground unit early

round trellis
#

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

spark socket
round trellis
#

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

spark socket
#

Ah i see

round trellis
#

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

spark socket
#

I should've figured this out b4 doing those stages RedOmegaLul

round trellis
#

the little thingies will float towards the appropriate cauldron depending on friendly/enemy status

#

and do not drain lp

spark socket
#

Yaa

#

I gotchu

spark socket
round trellis
#

ending 1 map, the Yi boss fight

spark socket
#

Ah

round trellis
#

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

spark socket
round trellis
#

figuratively, at your current selected difficulty it probably won't

spark socket
#

When does it start appearing? After difficulty 10 or sum? ExuStare

round trellis
# spark socket I gotchu

this is one of the stages in the Yu event, you can watch to see how the wisps behave

There are no free resets anymore

tacit oyster
#

does the 2nd option give more rewards?

smoky tiger
#

What does this do? Can you light up multiple operators in this option?

prime mountain

Depends on which floor you do it

foggy roost
smoky tiger
#

I never try the special battles. Can it light up multiple operators?

prime mountain
foggy roost

Survive in this case meaning survive lightning which scales on a random stat

Does F6 of ending 3 have a way to use reserved vouchers?

prime mountain
slate hull
#

oh, it is not guaranteed, I didn't know that

gentle frost
#

Ty

prime mountain
#

Think its high chance but still possible for it to lowroll

slate hull
#

f6 is the only floor where I have used the combat option, it gave me some insane stage with royal drones

prime mountain
#

yeah dont do that

slate hull
#

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

tacit oyster
#

what's the optimal way to beat Ed3 at A15? should I rob shop at F1?

prime mountain
#

Optimal everything in is6 is just raidian start shop rob f1

tacit oyster
#

honest question: Why?

#

I try to also visit the shop at F3 when I see it

prime mountain
#

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

paper notch
#

shop is guaranteed floor 1. almost every other floor you want to path to bosky

tacit oyster
#

better than F3+ shop then huh to spend ingots

#

oh

#

I should prio bosky/path over shop

vital ember
#

Shop is so hard to get to I've had multiple runs ending with almost 100 ingots unused

prime mountain
vital ember
#

True

tacit oyster
#

so ingots are better spent in bosky over cannot shop?

prime mountain
#

No but pathing terribly to get a shop isnt advised

#

You'd much rather get bosky and pathfind nodes

pallid summit
#

is it better to spend ingots in sui's consciousness if u have the relic or tongbao that gives aspd for ingots?

prime mountain
#

no

#

Unless you really need shields

How are you supposed to rob cannot at F1 at A15? He just starts putting tags on my E1 ops

or that

And still get it

sonic sable
#

Anyone knlws how to clear that three mini boss stage? I always leak one there

paper notch
#

i remember raidian s3 doing pretty well on that cliff of geists stage

prime mountain
#

The problem is its a gimmick stage where you're meant to shift enemies

#

on f3

#

Who has a shifter ready by f3 diesfromcringe

#

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?

we should all start drafting weedy for this encounter

prime mountain
#

Firstly: No

#

Secondly: Mizuki

winter belfry
#

mizuki cant pull cars

prime mountain
#

He can?

#

Does bro not know about his IS mod

winter belfry
#

theyre weight 4

#

how

prime mountain
#

he has significant pull OMEGALUL

#

Its only slightly but its enough to corner pull

prime mountain
#

yes and who early e2 drafts mizuki

#

in what world

sonic sable
#

Me

prime mountain
#

Other than spec/cast (its literally just specialists)

sonic sable
#

Thats why i lose

#

I mean if ypu start with exu ur second spec vpuchr will be an ambusher

winter belfry
#

draft weedy then

paper notch
#

your second voucher will be to candlebearer exu2 BagNino

prime mountain
#

Thats a thing

paper notch
#

what does pre e2 mean?

prime mountain
#

The squad

#

comes with your first unit pre promoted

paper notch
#

oh you support borrow exu

prime mountain
#

If you draft a support unit, you can save the promotion for your next voucher

#

yeah

remote umbra
#

Last attempt at getting raidian E2 voucher.
Imagine going the entire run with radian E1 from starter squad

paper notch
#

and e2 mizuki as candlebearer?

prime mountain
#

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

sonic sable
#

What do u draft as caster in caster spec lol

winter belfry
#

either nothing or go global burn tbh

prime mountain
#

Dont do drone cast

#

seriously dont

paper notch
#

global burn when i fucking make 30 hope vanish

prime mountain
#

Just draft nymph/logos and skip them all

paper notch
#

no benefits

#

literally just made the hope combust

winter belfry
#

you dont need gg AND lapp though

#

its not expensive at all

prime mountain
#

But you do need to waste hope on yu

#

its VERY expensive

winter belfry
#

yu is great anyway

#

so

paper notch
#

err

prime mountain
#

No the fuck he is not

paper notch
#

he isnt

winter belfry
#

from my experience

#

he is

prime mountain
#

Your d0 experience yes of course

#

then why does literally any good d15 player disagree

winter belfry
#

yeah bro totally

smoky gazelle
#

is the 'candleguests get +40% atk once a candleguest is promoted via combat' relic, retroactive when an op is recruited after acquiring the relic?

winter belfry
#

i only play D15

paper notch
#

not retroactive

smoky gazelle
#

winter belfry
#

who is a "good" D15 player

#

Cube only person I listen to โค๏ธ

prime mountain
main bison
#

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

smoky gazelle
# paper notch not retroactive

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?

paper notch
smoky gazelle
#

yeah

winter belfry
paper notch
#

it buffs them all

winter belfry
#

so ig

#

makes sense

paper notch
#

it just needs upto 4 stacks

winter belfry
#

idk who else here is

prime mountain
smoky gazelle
#

so even if i get exia just before f5 boss, she gets all the buffs?

prime mountain
#

Yu is not on the list

winter belfry
#

but

paper notch
#

ye

winter belfry
#

yu has saved my runs

#

tremendously

winter belfry
smoky gazelle
#

where does it say that

prime mountain
winter belfry
#

talm bout rn

prime mountain
#

Do you also do raidian

winter belfry
#

i dont even draft mech accords

prime mountain
#

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

winter belfry
#

sounds easy

prime mountain
paper notch
winter belfry
#

ill just wait for hoshi though

prime mountain
#

Also if you say yu is useful then proceed to do ed1, that doesnt count either lmao everyone clears ed1

winter belfry
#

what other defender options are there even rn

prime mountain
#

Shu/Saria for ed3 otherwise you skip

winter belfry
#

who else woild you draft besides yu

paper notch
winter belfry
#

ew bro

so just to reiterate, if i pick up exia on f5 just before f5 boss, she benefits from all the buffs ? @paper notch

prime mountain
#

Chat we castrate this guy

paper notch
#

the ending where half the enemies oneshot yu when they touch him?

or make him useless?

do you want an example??

Be nice furillo smile

Itโ€™s not their fault

ok its uh

do you want the whole fucking stream

Yes

winter belfry
#

im just showing you my setup

prime mountain
#

I actually do

winter belfry
#

i was hoping youd say no

#

but i mean it has raidian

halcyon flame
#

The fact that you completely ignored the wall breakers and opened anyway is something

prime mountain
#

Yeah its prob a 40 relic run which maxed out coin or something which is why I'm asking for stream

winter belfry
#

i have 3 hp

#

anyway

'aight. d15 boss 1 done. It was suprisingly... Easy?

prime mountain
# winter belfry <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLgTrBqM6_Q>

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 ๐Ÿ˜ญ idk what this clear proves tbh

#

Sorry for hate watching ๐Ÿซก

winter belfry
#

i just knew you were gonna mention the temp saria

prime mountain
#

I mean you wouldve died without her

#

like 100%

winter belfry
#

well

#

do you want my other clear without temp saria

#

๐Ÿฅ€

prime mountain
#

Is it also just raidian trag leizi ๐Ÿ˜ญ

winter belfry
#

nope

#

reed

#

leizi

#

!!

prime mountain
#

That sounds slightly more interresting sure

winter belfry
#

its just the exact same thing

prime mountain
#

So also raidian s2 carry?

winter belfry
#

i couldve done it without raidian since i had 50 LP but yeah

#

in IS6, how do we promote via combat??

i guess

prime mountain

#

but yeah im js saying yu aint that bad

#

hes in pretty much all my D15 clears

prime mountain
#

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

Yu love him?

#

hehe uwublush

winter belfry
#

Ill try no raidian supp/def but I'll probably be lost

prime mountain

Pre haruka/hoshi it aint great

#

most of the power of def/supp comes from early promoted raidian so you can greed bosky

#

whats the better haruka skill for IS is it still s2

#

s3 with levitation relics?

#

im guessing

nocturne cape

2 is usually better

#

3 has a higher sanct

#

Depends on your usecase

muted tundra
#

I'm assuming haruka is good for ed3? iunno too much about her

nocturne cape
#

Shes very good for ed3

#

Best healer to put in the middle

#

Can clear the flaws during his P2

muted tundra

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

nocturne cape

Both are great

hoshi s3 hits air right

Is this a win HellaUnamused

I leaked the mimic

In terms of IS6 Hoshi is more of a carry earlygame type of unit, shes not great in the endings

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)

surtr tanking yi I'm guessing?

Shoutout to the support collectible that debuffs enemies under the support attack radius

muted jewel
#

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

tacit oyster

lol

paper kayak
#

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

ancient jacinth
paper kayak
#

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

ancient jacinth
#

i got 16 alone from odd merchant appearing thrice for some reason

#

then the rest from random turmoil nodes

karinthink
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

rapid pulsar

๐Ÿ˜ญ ๐Ÿ˜ญ

If youโ€™re starting Iโ€™d do high ground breach

even before its upgrade its more forgiving early on and the +deploy and squad size can be really comfy

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

ancient jacinth

the 35 hit brass spears are just not worth it

main bison
#

again, right side was the problem

#

I lost Raidian and Exu 2, but that was a timing issue on my part

ancient jacinth
#

yeah thats why just allocate most of you defense to the left

#

for right just farm shields to leak

main bison
#

no, right side is the one you defend, then leak the left side is the typical thing to do

ancient jacinth
#

damn im been lobotomizing myself so much on IS5 i forgot my left and right ๐Ÿ˜ญ

main bison
#

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

modern iris
# tacit oyster Which part do you need help with?

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.

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

there's a couple I take on purpose though
