is-station

[stray dove]

Chalice is the only time i really do ingot hogging

because high af DEF doesn't feel strong enough

not when the more dangerous damage types is arts or true dmg

[proven dagger]

i treat it like a nice bonus rather than something I turn my entire run for

[ancient jacinth]

anyways if so then I am the pioneer of IS6 DEF strat

[stray dove]

it's not exactly turning the entire run around

I would still get fire poking stick

but there's not exactly much worth to use ingots on

outside of Nian Desires

which I'd rather have more ASPD

[proven dagger]

all I need is Specialists execution to win

🚬

[heavy pumice]

the issue is simply only bubble who can abuse it
if there more than 1 maybe they are more into this

[proven dagger]

or watch

watch is my win condition

🤫

[stray dove]

the bracelet for summons?

[ancient jacinth]

the irony is that DEF can be used as a nuke potentially stronger than wisadel no matter how cracked in relics she is in this case

[proven dagger]

yeah

[stray dove]

yeah one of the best relics

makes cat drop faster

makes raidian more absurd

[stray dove]

stacking it is the issue

it's like Ling tiers of planned looping

[proven dagger]

oh I use it for Phantom clone

but yeah

[split void]

[proven dagger]

watch is op

[ancient jacinth]

I mean hey, 1000000 DEF is technically 500k physical damage in one instance

[stray dove]

that map is the hardest F3 alter

[errant siren]

Fisherman.

[ancient jacinth]

from a 4* too which is basically free hope

[stray dove]

seeing this felt like i was in the final wave of an anni....AS A NEWBIE

[proven dagger]

fisherman is a cc check tbh

[split void]

[proven dagger]

the alter

[ancient jacinth]

grand duke map is garbage

[errant siren]

Fisherman Alter is Wis E2 check.

[stray dove]

lmao

OOC strats

[ancient jacinth]

if you only have ranged youre fucked unless you have E2 walter

[stray dove]

makes sense

[errant siren]

Have Wis E2? Win.
Don't have? Suffer.

[stray dove]

Fisherman is talisman spammer

[errant siren]

[stray dove]

so Wis S2 is the best solution

for both throwers

and Fisherman talisman

[heavy pumice]

yeah and its intriguing to me to test it
have to wait ato banner first so IS6 journey can wait longer :ya:

[stray dove]

in Fisherman alter

[muted tundra]

mizuki pulls crazy weight

[proven dagger]

fisherman alter record is like

raidian blacknight

[sonic sable]

Not a bad stage

[proven dagger]

i wanna raise blacknight for is6

[ancient jacinth]

lmk if you manage to actually do it

[proven dagger]

it'll be really funny

[stray dove]

unless you're pretty stacked, that's the hardest F3 boss

[proven dagger]

i think Moonlight alter is harder

[sonic sable]

I think its moonlight

[stray dove]

i found that easier.

[sonic sable]

Easiest is dusk beauty

[ornate wave]

I used ethan wisadel indigo with the bound = arts DMG collectible

And Tequila..

[stray dove]

it was like that IS4 shaman priest alter

in terms of alter challenge

[proven dagger]

yeah but idk i find it a lot more difficult

than the other alters

Moonlight is easy but Dusk Beauty is 💀

[stray dove]

i didn't hug the top anyways

so it just felt like.....a meh-sandwich

it is a healing check at least from what i felt

[heavy pumice]

but dont expect me to do this quickly
irl>games

[sonic sable]

Dusk beauty u raidian s3 the boss

[proven dagger]

i have Miz s2m3 so maybe that stage will be better for me next time I try it

i typically draft Cliffheart for the Dusk Beauty boss

to ground her

then I beat her to death 🫃

[stray dove]

LMAO Cliffheart for hovering stun. Reminds me of IS3 D18 cheap hope manta solutions

[ancient jacinth]

(I spent three days trying to get a run that had both ling and strenuous study again)

[proven dagger]

I get decent use out of her in is6

she's good for apparitions too

since she has DOT

[muted tundra]

goliath alter I never figured out but also I never had super strong teams when I ran into it
but tragodia would instasolve it now lmao

[stray dove]

Goliath alter was toxic

that map was shit

shit to defend

[ancient jacinth]

honestly just do it in a11 or below it's not worth the headache of getting fucked over by 2 cost retosses

[proven dagger]

I've never seen any of the IS5 altars

somehow

[heavy pumice]

that would be bad
i often clear a full run within 3-7 days time :icant:

[stray dove]

Logos Mom Alter was also very choking

[proven dagger]

I've never been on em

how do you find them

[muted tundra]

yea her range is brutal

[stray dove]

and necrosis zone was huge

[muted tundra]

there's a f3 event to convert boss to alter

[heavy pumice]

so trying the idea would take more than that 😂

[stray dove]

it took most of the safest tiles

[proven dagger]

ohhh

you can't get it naturally?

[muted tundra]

afaik no

[stray dove]

yeah

[ancient jacinth]

global range was crazy

[stray dove]

it's an encounter

where you chose to make F3 boss harder

thats the only time you fight altered map variations

[ancient jacinth]

eve of defense or some

[stray dove]

of IS5 F3 bosses

[ancient jacinth]

for like 3 hope

[stray dove]

without it

you only fought alter versions of the boss

on the same map

which barely changes anything

outside of Logos Mom

who gets long af range

and spawns immediately in middle

[ornate wave]

I didn't pick that collectible btw
The butterfly one in IS6 that makes dragon attack your operator

[ornate wave]

Did I miss out on smth good

[stray dove]

it's not a collectible

the IS5 F3 alter variation effect

is tied entirely on an encounter node choice

[proven dagger]

what's the reward

[stray dove]

....just beating it

[ornate wave]

Getting stomped by a dragon

[ancient jacinth]

it's just for end2

literally no other reason to pick it up

[stray dove]

there is one reason

Raidian progress

[ornate wave]

Yes I sent it back for other reward

[ornate wave]

At what difficulty

[ancient jacinth]

fair

[stray dove]

...D5?

on 3 different squads?

i forget

[ornate wave]

I'm at 2 rn I'm alright

[stray dove]

i did Ed2 on D5, D6, and D7

just to unlock difficulties along the way

[gaunt bay]

Curieeee

[stray dove]

I was lucky to get Image Discern IS6 edition

[ancient jacinth]

they should really add more operators that have skills that scale off something else other than attack for damage 😔

[stray dove]

but the other rare Hour is still not in my grasp

after constant throwaway no-combat resets

[muted tundra]

morning pookie

[grizzled nexus]

Huh, in "Of Hundred Forms", Cannot just walks through like that?

[ancient jacinth]

yeah he dips

[gaunt bay]

Omg… pookie…

My heart just melted

[grizzled nexus]

Casually enter blue box and don't reduce life point. Kinda panicked that I thought he is invisible, lol

[ancient jacinth]

god i love this emote

silly goober

[muted tundra]

i'm so happy her mom died

[sinful sparrow]

HUH

[stray dove]

nothing to be panicked about

Cannot's back to being unkillable

he's too tired of being nuked in IS5

[muted tundra]

i hope we get to see his goofy running animation again someday

[copper orchid]

Wtf dude

[stray dove]

he's more of a pain in the ass anyways as an enemy buffing, talisman spawning shithead

[muted tundra]

uninstall tbh

it's all downhill from there

[copper orchid]

What if tho

[gaunt bay]

Curie can we cuddle

Im coldddd

[muted tundra]

https://tenor.com/view/little-reed-arknights-pray-your-morning-gif-16976553366218526563

[muted tundra]

thank you little loughshinny

[gaunt bay]

How does reed feel about being powercrept today

[faint rampart]

wth

[gaunt bay]

Yeah you wake up and reed is kil

[faint rampart]

go back to temprature talk, dont make her feel bad

[gaunt bay]

Unfortunate

[flint token]

huh wdym reed is kill 😢

i thought titi is just le sidegrada

[faint rampart]

naur kiwi just kidding

[gaunt bay]

Er

[faint rampart]

Surely surely

[gaunt bay]

:clueless:

Surely

[faint rampart]

lets go back uh

[ornate wave]

I'm at IS6 floor 5, I'm at the node mangshan town records the first time

Any hints on the mechanics used here

[faint rampart]

is ya

[muted tundra]

is "good luck" a hint

[faint rampart]

lets go back to is talk instead of powercreep

[ornate wave]

I have wisadel and mylnar on my side

[faint rampart]

mizuki?

[ornate wave]

Not got him..

[muted tundra]

since you haven't seen the stage yet I assume low difficulty

[faint rampart]

hmmmm good luck

[muted tundra]

so

wishadel works

just take it slow

[ornate wave]

Difficulty 2
If I clear this my raidian will be elite 2

[ancient jacinth]

basically a horde of gas station tweakers to the left, then occasional blemishes to the right

[muted tundra]

[gaunt bay]

Erm idk how true this is but

[acoustic ridge]

how many ingot usually we get after batle?

[muted tundra]

reed and ines were already powercrept by 5* in is5

[ornate wave]

What's a blemish btw..
Gas station guy is that exploding "where's the flammenwerfer"guy?

[faint rampart]

reed pfp gatekeeping reed dw :cope:

[paper notch]

maybe the reality is more that reed is mid and titi is like above mid 🤫

[gaunt bay]

Yeah but thats a hope issue not a viability issue

[ancient jacinth]

enraged possessed infected and the long ranged mortar enemy from Shu event

respectively

[gaunt bay]

If hope was a nonfactor ines would he drafted every time

[remote badger]

is titi barely useable or anything

[gaunt bay]

No shes reed powercreep

[ornate wave]

I saw that blemish mob, he stuns my ops..

[faint rampart]

not you too...

[gaunt bay]

Allegedly

[ancient jacinth]

sleep on heal looks pretty nice

[stray dove]

unless we get Hour that instaspawns talismans in VG. That would make Surfer/Canta become the better picks

still

Ines's passive

are really good

especially some of the invis enemies

[remote badger]

cant rate a book from its cover

[stray dove]

in Shanhaizong and Wang game

[gaunt bay]

Ines…. Has an s3

[paper notch]

titi is pretty decent utility and CC. i think for most people she's still an easy skip tho

[gaunt bay]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/586588921614303233/1441431444445728828/ff1701ffdf64da5933e5a619f07d2563499171058.gif

[muted tundra]

oh yea I did wanna try ines draft for ed3

[stray dove]

well sure. But i prefer her still attacking talisman off because I want that S2

[gaunt bay]

Okay?

[stray dove]

in the end

[gaunt bay]

Shes still objectively better than surfer and canta

[stray dove]

i still get her

[faint rampart]

+fraud titi will never have as good skins as reed

[stray dove]

as much as i can

[remote badger]

i see time to wait

[gaunt bay]

:lappphone:

[remote badger]

until she is really usefull

[stray dove]

because Conserved Vouchers really make hope econ more forgiving

so I get Ines and Shu

even if not too necessary

[gaunt bay]

Its interesting

[stray dove]

they're my win-more safe picks

[gaunt bay]

We shall see if shes worth picking up by the time she reaches us in 6 months

[stray dove]

i mean

[gaunt bay]

For all we know it could be another post nymph dead year

[stray dove]

she aint' even worth picking in other ISs

[ornate wave]

My node path rn is "mangshan town" → Wonderland → safe house → encounter → prophecy → final boss

What does the prophecy node do

[stray dove]

due to less forgiving hope econ

[gaunt bay]

Er

Is4

🤫

[remote badger]

more time for more orondumbs

[muted tundra]

prophecy lets you select between ed1/ed2 (if you met the requirements for ed2)

[stray dove]

i ignore sweatlord advise anyways when hope econ starts overflowing in latter floors anyways

[paper notch]

i think the difference between post nymph and rn is that the units we are getting rn are almost objectively pretty good units. just not new meta

[stray dove]

and just get my Ines and Shu

[gaunt bay]

Dude we had a solid 10 months postnymph where everyone was mid

[muted tundra]

10

[gaunt bay]

Al the way up to exu

And then

[stray dove]

post-Nymph

[muted tundra]

no way

[gaunt bay]

All hell broke loose

[stray dove]

lemme check

[remote badger]

the cycles continues

[gaunt bay]

Exu into trag into leizi into hoshi haruka into saikiko

Its insane

[stray dove]

hmmm....yeah ngl that's a fair comment

[paper notch]

the only unit i would really call mid is like nasti everyone else feels like high end of good imo

[gaunt bay]

We had insane 6 month compression of meta ops from degen into wis

Then like

Eh from ulpi into nymph

Then

[stray dove]

gen content ops

until Geexu

Mon3tr for IS5 but that's near the end of IS5 anyways

[gaunt bay]

Siege lapp thot yu entel banana mon3tr

I dont think mon3tr is an actually meta operator on her own

[muted tundra]

nasti is the one I'm most looking forward to

[gaunt bay]

Certainly stronger than the others i mentioned

But shes

Solidly mid

Well not solidly

Upper mid

[stray dove]

yeah you can't ignore her S2 and S3

they're solid

but not exceptional

[muted tundra]

is sakiko worth building

wait I have no guards

yea

[gaunt bay]

Fs

She is

[muted tundra]

i don't have leizi or ente

[gaunt bay]

But idk if shes worth pulling

[muted tundra]

i have to

[gaunt bay]

Peter the horse is here

[errant siren]

What a turn of events.

[muted tundra]

slop

[pastel saffron]

even after 20 runs I haven't seen this, what is this hour?

[stray dove]

pulling purely to not be a victim of missing out limited/collab units

and having to rely on indefinite reruns that might not exist

[pastel saffron]

that's a stacked account if I have ever seen one

[gaunt bay]

Kinda fraudulent im afraid

[paper notch]

i wouldnt personally call it stacked

[muted tundra]

chance to be stunned on dealing damage

actually wait, is it rarer or something?

I don't get it often at all

[stray dove]

strong but not my preferred "stacked"

stacked is Geexu Wis Trag

[pastel saffron]

why, he has a while page filled with e2 guards

[sinful sparrow]

@muted tundra

[muted tundra]

oh specifically for is6

sorry

[stray dove]

I'm so waiting hard on ATO

[muted tundra]

for other IS it's fine

[pastel saffron]

Ah

[stray dove]

before i use my EXP and LMD again to mass-promote ops

[ancient jacinth]

wait faster

[muted tundra]

is4 and is5 there's a lotta good stuff there

[faint rampart]

franka damn

[muted tundra]

or at least it seems like in is6 most of the old-guard guards are so relic/tongbao specific

situationally busted with right comp

[gaunt bay]

🤫

[muted tundra]

but generally bad

[pastel saffron]

giga stacked ahhh

[muted tundra]

[flint token]

[stray dove]

I still have a lot of 5* to raise.

[flint token]

You’d prob die from overeating

realisticly though 3 because you’re weak

[muted tundra]

[gaunt bay]

Great question! That would depend on your body weight and the type of apple. Unfortunately, as an AI, I cannot advise you to eat that many apples, however, 100 of them would probably kill you.
If you want, we can create a meal plan to eat all those apples. Would you like me to do that?

[prime mountain]

Oh my god kiwi became an AI

The world is doomed

[proven dagger]

i used m3 ticket on her yesterday

gotta get use out of it

[halcyon flame]

honestly as a generic frd crownslayer works great

for opening it doesnt sound bad

er

[proven dagger]

she can deal damage to the talisman guys while they afk

[halcyon flame]

if you can kill top right anyway

[stray dove]

this thing still eludes me

[halcyon flame]

what if you used crownslayer and phantom to just jump the top right talisman guy

london style

[flint token]

sounds like ass

[pastel saffron]

if I lose a battle while having end of times relic, do I get the vouchers and stuff

or get nothing

[halcyon flame]

nothign

[ancient jacinth]

nothing you just exit the battle with 1 hp

[stray dove]

it's literally skipping the fight

[flint token]

Honestly my only issue with cslayer is that

[stray dove]

thats why it's best to just quit out before they leak

[proven dagger]

oh yeah that can work

[pastel saffron]

Thankyou!

[halcyon flame]

we use ass to have fun

type shit

[stray dove]

because whatvever life loss you get in the skipped battle

it retains it

[muted tundra]

you get nothing and also if you're going for ed2 it resets progress on the foot (if you got it under 50%)

[proven dagger]

i play phantom core for is6

[stray dove]

so its best to use EoT before anything gets worse

[proven dagger]

he can work on the pathfinder I think

[flint token]

eot is good for dodging f6 emers ig

[pastel saffron]

I was gon skip shop rob with end of times

but might not be worth

coz I'll miss out on hope

[flint token]

honestly if you can manage the fight i wouldnt bother

[stray dove]

i just use it on any F6 combat i feel like i dont need the clear rewards for

or yeah if the F6 combat can kill me

I have yet to see emer Inferno from all my squad clear attempts of Ed3

xiexie

[remote badger]

very nice

i steal

[faint rampart]

wth

[grizzled nexus]

Shu can take all of my Hope in Leisure node.

[stray dove]

btw isn't Hour of Sui technically the most in-your-face floor debuffs out of all ISs?

it's immediately hardest level tiered (based on diff, and when compared to paradigms)

it's permanent for the run

[halcyon flame]

No?

[stray dove]

and you can't downgrade it or slow it down like in IS4

[halcyon flame]

Rejections

[stray dove]

rejections is ops based

hell you barely feel it if it keeps hitting your temp ops

but yeah if you keep leaking light and leaking in combat, yeah....might as well give everyone the rejection

[halcyon flame]

Considering a few of the hours are just reskinned IS5 modifiers I haven’t rlly noticed

+4 DP is just Pledge+

[stray dove]

I'd rather take fucking Baro

than eat a Ssu Nung

[halcyon flame]

30% stats is just ball sack

And max sp I never notice since I always have ed3 anyways

Honestly the double talisman one is funny

Actually a get fked moment

Double talisman with ballsack is a moment

[stray dove]

Talismans with apparation buffs

means those talismans also get more hitcounts, right?

[halcyon flame]

[stray dove]

imagine having Ssu Nung

and your gambling in Desires or insta-obtained relics

nets you....

Blademace

I do remember such a potential situation

because I got Charcoal mask without my consent

[flint forge]

If I have auto recovery SP buff, can it negate the -1/s effect?

[rotund copper]

naw

was it multiplier or additional

[flint forge]

Wdym

[ornate wave]

0x100 is 0

Was it +100%
Then it's +0

[flint forge]

I see, but will it drain sp if op not attacking?

[ornate wave]

More like they'll never gain SP unless they keep attacking
It happened with mylnar for me, he stood skill less that battle..

I don't know what that auto recovery SP buff is btw

[ornate wave]

Liberators need SP to attack in the first place

[flint forge]

Such as bottle collectibles 0.2-0.5sp/s
Or the one with each supporter deployed
I think there's more

But you said it is multiplied so if Ig It didn't work?

[ornate wave]

You should add them up and see if it's more than 2
Autoskill regen is 1sp/sec
If it's 0 your op won't use skill unless attacking (that's take a long time)

[prime mountain]

Im pretty sure the -1 gets applied after every other buff

[ornate wave]

Right I mean normally it's 1 sp/sec
That coin will make it 0sp/sec because of the -1sp/s

If your op do damage it becomes 2sp per hit

If the ops you use are liberator they'll be useless

[prime mountain]

Cause I had +100% before anyone uses a skill

and was regaining sp

So if you have any external buff, it will counter that coin I think

ptilo stonks?

[ornate wave]

I didn't have that +100% yea..

[prime mountain]

Idk if its only on field effects or perma ones work like the 0.2sp relic

[ornate wave]

I forgot if I had ptilopsis that run

[prime mountain]

mhmm wait yeah no the ones that say flat definitely work cause its not % so its just -1 + 0.2

[flint forge]

I see, gotta try some combination with it later, like maybe deployed dp=sp relic.
Thanks everyone

[copper orchid]

Wait u can get wish fullfilled in f1 if u get lamp?

I thought no matter what its only encounter/combat

[faint rampart]

psure yea

[prime mountain]

yes but also like dont

you really want fights

[copper orchid]

I didnt want to

I didnt know

[prime mountain]

[copper orchid]

So I got wish fullfilled

I am cooked

[prime mountain]

Learning experience

!

[faint rampart]

is5 in 2026

[stray dove]

Shennong Watches is a very interesting coin to plan for

turning everyone into off rec

is quite something

that does mean jackshit for Liberators

[dusty jacinth]

Scam ?

[prime mountain]

If you spend like 9-10 life points you get a special relic out of it

thats like, if you already have 5 units on the field, next one deployed gets giga buffed

[dusty jacinth]

What's the buff ?

[errant siren]

You can gain Coupons, if high on HP

If low - better skip this one.

[prime mountain]

Its a pretty substantial one, idr exact numbers but I think its like +100% hp atk and stuff for the one unit

But kinda hard to play around

Cause you need to deploy 6 units :/

And idk if summons count

If they do count well huh shrimply raidian

[dusty jacinth]

[ornate wave]

How do I get 20 life points

[dusty jacinth]

Good thing I have raidain on me

I'll go for it

[prime mountain]

See if summons count for the relic, idk if they do

[ornate wave]

Is there no krooster site but for relics

[prime mountain]

Huh yeah the wiki but its not entirely translated yet

[dusty jacinth]

Still good

[errant siren]

[muted tundra]

ethan deserves passive hp regen too

[errant siren]

Legend Node with HP restore cheeze.

[muted tundra]

mizuki sharing snacks

[ornate wave]

What happens if that operator is wisadel

[muted tundra]

also yes this is mizuki+ethan on exemplary service

no it is not very exciting

[ornate wave]

I get other stuff on legends
Like vouchers or smth

Hp is Rare..

[errant siren]

Git gud then.

Upgrade your luck.

[ornate wave]

I wanted to ask something but I forgot what was it

Oh yea
Are guard sentry defenders good at IS or is it my skill issue play style

I usually cheese IS6 stages when I own guardsentry defender (Miksa oji)

[errant siren]

Not quite

Most used is JessAlter

And it plays kinda...

[prime mountain]

They're really mid

just wait for hoshi alt

only good defender

[errant siren]

If lowdiff, nice, enough survivability and damage

If highdiff

Well

Banhammer Deers will smack her head into pieces

Really fast

[ornate wave]

Im saving
Im at 39k
And 0

[prime mountain]

Good luck 🫡

[stray dove]

i remembered when i actually used Jesster

IS4 when there's hope to burn

[copper orchid]

U can even get this node in is4 f1?

[ornate wave]

Myrtle took 19 of it away 💢

[copper orchid]

Dam I really dont play is

[prime mountain]

Yep fun

[copper orchid]

They fixed this in is5

Right

[prime mountain]

nah in is5 you get wish instead

[ornate wave]

The only stuff worth missing out is reclamation algorithm
And #help

[prime mountain]

But you can reroll so its chill

[copper orchid]

Istg

[faint rampart]

#help slander wth

[copper orchid]

But.. What if I rolled into wish in f1😭

[prime mountain]

Well thats only if you have lamp

Otherwise fight > encounter and encounter > fight

(mostly)

Well on f1 its always

[ornate wave]

You should see the help channel in gfl2 server
The pins say "pls don't be toxic when helping"

[faint rampart]

[halcyon flame]

should’ve reworded it to “please don’t talk to people like they’re stupid for asking for help”

[ornate wave]

How do you pronounce the l in mylnar

L with a cross

[muted tundra]

oh wait does borderbound mirror not work with ursus targeteers because the damage isn't sourced to them..?

[ornate wave]

Ok I clicked the pinned message there and it turns out to be a text wall of burnout and other no ranting stuff

[muted tundra]

[halcyon flame]

Which stage were they in

Was it ware user

[ornate wave]

I forgot who that mob is.. or I might've not meet them yet because I'm noob

But it's that "first enemy attack = -90% DMG" relic right

[muted tundra]

the turmoil with the targeteer + three bombtails + two frosts in the middle

never remember its name

[halcyon flame]

Oh

[faint rampart]

mweewnar frfr

[halcyon flame]

Yea then probabaly not

[muted tundra]

teehee

lesson learned

[halcyon flame]

That’s a good thing to note though

Thanks for being the Guinea pig

!!

[muted tundra]

[halcyon flame]

something something OSHA hand book written in blood

[nocturne cape]

[halcyon flame]

Oh actually while on the topic another noteworthy interaction is on Away, Hui. Bordermirror will actually make the flamethrowers explosion deal the 90% reduced damage

So they won’t chain explode

Easily fixed by baiting one of their attacks first

[muted tundra]

wait lmao??

amazing

that makes sense

[nocturne cape]

Yes

This is a common interaction

Be aware

[halcyon flame]

Be prepared

(For this new batch of clues I’m about to send your way)

[nocturne cape]

Can you kindly

🪢

Thanks

[halcyon flame]

Shut up

🤡

🏫

✍️

[nocturne cape]

I know its hover for you bro

[halcyon flame]

🫵

⚔️

[muted tundra]

okay now time to science if stainless s3 turrets count for raidian gameboy

[halcyon flame]

Low hovering altitude my beloathed

[muted tundra]

prolly not

[nocturne cape]

What are you talking about

[halcyon flame]

I was just bitching about this with Senz earlier about how mantas in IS3 basically ALWAYS ADD +1 OP TO THE CLEAR

[nocturne cape]

[halcyon flame]

Cube

[ornate wave]

Can you post a text wall so I can read (I'm an en player)

[halcyon flame]

Open your clue box buddy

[nocturne cape]

No

[stray dove]

I think I've only felt how premium deployment limit + is in IS6.
Not because of Raidian (it helps but not too problematic later) but because of Pathfinder fights having very low deployment limit

[halcyon flame]

Oh wait my raidian is 200% trust finally

[stray dove]

and not a lot of relics to increase it

[nocturne cape]

Theres nothing

[onyx sable]

Hey folks if i clear 2nd and 3nd ending in is6 will it register both 2 ending or only 3rd ending like in is5?

[nocturne cape]

Only 3

[stray dove]

IS only registers the biggest ending you have

even if you marathon a bunch of them

chaining a bunch of special ending bosses is purely for the challenge

[cold fjord]

Open yours

[onyx sable]

I trade the unflinching masterplan then

[stray dove]

lol

it's kinda hilarious to think in a way

[halcyon flame]

I was taking clues off my board

To send

[stray dove]

that Ed2's relic

is actually a perk

[halcyon flame]

[stray dove]

after you beat the foot

[nocturne cape]

Good so you sent 4 more junks

[stray dove]

reminds me of Grave stone route

[nocturne cape]

Now i have 10 clue 7s from you

[stray dove]

being a perk relic

[stray dove]

and not a debuff after you finish the route

[halcyon flame]

Peak

[nocturne cape]

[halcyon flame]

My raidian only being 200% now feels late

[nocturne cape]

My raidian is not even 100%

[stray dove]

it isn't

[nocturne cape]

shes not trustworthy

[stray dove]

i tried to get Raidian early

gave her double dorm and CC treatment

and included her in every farm

only today did she become 200% too as someone who doesn't use 2-4-3 base layout

Cube just curious. What is IS6 Ed4's route relic effect?

just say what it does. No need to elaborate too much on other stuff

[halcyon flame]

+DEF and ASPD to enemies

More to elites and leaders

[stray dove]

ah the normal stat stick route relics

ngl that feels easier to deal with

when compared to Wang's debuff combo

[nocturne cape]

Much easier

[stray dove]

prev ISs have made me too used to ending routes just making enemies have more stats

[severe oasis]

ed3 relic debuffs are genuinely brutal sometimes

or like all the time

[cold fjord]

Ur brutalized by is5 ed3?

[halcyon flame]

IS5 giving you a free bosky

[severe oasis]

is6

[halcyon flame]

Excellent

[severe oasis]

not is5

[cold fjord]

U might be a fraudster

[severe oasis]

tf

smh

[halcyon flame]

Tbf it sounded like you were calling ed3 debuff relics in general brutal

[nocturne cape]

Im attempting e1 entel start again

[halcyon flame]

Which would be accurate

Except in 5

[nocturne cape]

23+4D is kinda brutal

Ngl

[halcyon flame]

Yea it’s really rough

[stray dove]

It's very Wang-coded that his most dangerous strength is his prep time against you.

• 2 really nasty relic debuffs
• kicking out all non-candleholders

[nocturne cape]

The only game ive won is gvg

[halcyon flame]

With e1 start

[nocturne cape]

But i hate playing gvg

[halcyon flame]

I MUST Archetto start

[nocturne cape]

I will cook again

[severe oasis]

i dont like is5

[nocturne cape]

Flower coin squad seems fun

[halcyon flame]

Highroll too close to the sun and you shall fall like Icarus (highroll mode)

[stray dove]

Just imagine that IS6 2-3-5 route would have ed5 boss need to be fought with only candleholders due to Wang's prophecy effect still being present

[halcyon flame]

Give me triple debuff relic like in IS4 or give me death!

[stray dove]

IS4 ed3 route making you waste an entire floor by going to a vertical-less low-path

[cold fjord]

idk ed3 will prolly be jobber tier cuz everyone else gets free scout

unless 3a is super hard

[nocturne cape]

Why does everyone else get free scout

[ornate wave]

Where's the text wall at

[cold fjord]

everyone else is sent on scout

u didnt notice?

[nocturne cape]

[cold fjord]

so logically that would mean they come back from scout on f7

[ornate wave]

Ok I misread clues as in hints to clear IS and not the ones you dump on your friends in reception room

Mb for getting noob..

[nocturne cape]

Yep alyssal is cringe like that

[dusk creek]

It will be changed if they allow 3/4+5 surely

[cold fjord]

[dusk creek]

I wonder where the 3+4 stage is going to appear

Maybe end5 will be multi map and that’s one of the maps

Otherwise it seems kind of lazy if that’s the entire map

[cold fjord]

i mean an ending over different stages hasn't been done yet

so it is possible

[ornate wave]

Are there any t*erlist for collectibles in IS6
Or are there any "must have" ones

[errant siren]

As usual

Find stat increase, preferably ATK and ASPD

Some QoL increase

Stun duration increase, Squad and Deploy Limit, Redeploy Time, more resources, etc etc.

Common stuff.

Same as Coins

[muted tundra]

how am i just learning about the mixed-tile 2v2

first i've gotten it

[ornate wave]

I got this once so I wisadelled it

[lost anchor]

were you avoiding face off nod

[muted tundra]

who meeeeee?

I would never

I love face-offs

[errant siren]

[muted tundra]

[tulip star]

What is the strategy for is6 end3 on hight difficulty?

[errant siren]

https://tenor.com/view/doubt-press-x-la-noire-meme-x-button-gif-19259237

[muted tundra]

i used weedy x ange uwu

[ornate wave]

I would've faced off if they didn't plonk the wander Wonderland node elsewhere

[faint rampart]

[tulip star]

What squad I wanna have

And what's the best start squad? Raidian + yan medic guard?

[faint rampart]

raidian+exu i think

[ornate wave]

Was there a list of yan ops in the 3★ to 5★range cos I don't have many 6 stars

[winter belfry]

Just focus on clearing balls

the boss barely does anything

[faint rampart]

two same leisure nodes wth

[muted tundra]

well well well

[ornate wave]

A dragon has been a bad kid and needs a visit from Santa

[ornate wave]

Wait exu2 is yan? I thought she's laterano

[faint rampart]

🐧

[round trellis]

the penguin logistics ops are all included since they are lungmen

[ornate wave]

I skipped all story..

[earnest shuttle]

I wish my IS6 run was this lucky

[agile hill]

is devotion actually insane in is6

[slate hull]

not really insane, but nice to have because of hitcount enemies

there is also a slingshot that has a similar effect

[distant glade]

I tosssed the coin for temp E2 6*s on F4 and now have Virt, Vivi, and Carnelian.

S3 Virt against ed1's second phase, to kill the bombs?
Vivi to tank the boss?
Carnelian to... not include in the squad at all? idk

My only winning strat has used Ulpi S2 to tank the boss, Logos S3 to protect Ulpi from the bombs, Shu S3 and Gladiia S1 to defent the box, and Perf+GG S3 to clear out the rest of the map

[ionic cradle]

Still fuckin hate this guy

[agile hill]

i feel like coupon is more for refreshing than travelling

[ionic cradle]

it's kinda is for both once a wish fulfilled or smth attracts your eye, just general use tbh, you easily get em one you know how to do turmoil stages

[faint rampart]

it doesn't work when i borrow/use support unit wth

[prime mountain]

Thats useful actually

save the e2 for your pathfind node

[faint rampart]

yeah you're right...

[grizzled nexus]

If I had completed Raidian M3 skill's mission but I'm still in M1 of her skill.

Can I immediately get her M3 skill after I completed her M2 skill's mission?

ED2 is too RNG and honestly has annoying stage.

[gaunt lichen]

yes u can

[distant glade]

chalice came in clutch in this run. I had... a lot of ingots and couldn't use my normal strat

[haughty cloud]

which 4* and 3* are worth to level up for is5 because i use 6* only most of the time so i dont have many of the former leveled up

[distant glade]

gummy

3* not worth at all in IS5 because 4* are free

[wraith warren]

May,ethan,gummy,click

Some of them you don't even need to raise past e1

[distant glade]

gravel, perfumer... the usual

[latent radish]

"Survival is a temporary condition. For all of us." - Commander Zavala

[faint rampart]

ugh

the artillery whatever drones bomb still hits even if it dies

seems logical but

[prime mountain]

😭

None of the 2 shops had coupons in bosky

[raw hemlock]

Hey how come it can do drone strikes after death and Lem cant? /gen

[wraith warren]

Lem can if all ammo is used

[prime mountain]

I made a mistake

EM feng shui got hands 😭

[gaunt bay]

I was gonna say “-1 is fine” and then i saw the guys behind him

🥹

[prime mountain]

oops!

I tought yato could kill (she couldnt)

[gaunt bay]

🥺

[rapid matrix]

just realized talismans attack debuff also applies in aoe... anyway does anyone have ente in their support? she is pretty fun to play with

[faint rampart]

truly messed up at the end

[steel relic]

[wanton rose]

rip

[paper kayak]

wish they would go back and make class squads 100% autopromote at the start of a run on is3/4 so I didn't have to sit here resetting

[alpine solar]

can luo xiaohei get 100% physical dodge with his mod3 and the associated relics

or even with that one coin that gives everyone 55% dodge

[faint rampart]

im pretty sure dodge doesn't add up like that to end up as 100%

[dusty jacinth]

What is IS6 3rd ending core operators?

[dusty jacinth]

Ethan or Ascalon for left lane ?
Just curious

I usually bring Ascalon

[faint rampart]

~~usually leak ~~

[slate hull]

I had both ethan and ascalon on there at one point and it still leaked about 5 enemies

[rapid matrix]

do tactical leaks. kill some of them and don't bother with some of them. works everytime

[slate hull]

raidian + any medic + a defender + 2-3 good dps, it is not really complicated, just getting there is hard

[faint rampart]

spec vouchers needed too much+hope, idk if i can afford asc

[final gale]

just play specast

[faint rampart]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/754047873523384400.png

[paper kayak]

natural double bosky

[ionic cradle]

Somewhat of a risky path IS4-wise

[prime mountain]

depends which floor

if this is f4 its free win

[paper kayak]

f4

[prime mountain]

Yeah you win

[errant lance]

Im already difficulty in 11 and Max Out my Raidian. I thought I got all the medals. unfortunately theres this 1 medal Im unsure how to get this. anyone care to explain.sorry smol brain doctuh here. thank you In advance.

[prime mountain]

you cant yet

its the monthlies

Need to wait another month

[errant lance]

ohhh

thank you

its the zuo le and nian. aight 👍

[prime mountain]

Yeah those

[wraith warren]

Final cadence appear in cannot fight?

[gaunt bay]

no

[wraith warren]

Ggs

4 encounters in f5 and only the last was nymph encounter

[gaunt bay]

ya ive lost 245s from that before

[grizzled nexus]

Spawn camping at this stage felt so good

[little glade]

I keep getting guard tickets but I'm always confused about who to pick

Any recommendations for Sui garden

For vanguard I'm always pick beanstalk
Caster Click
Supporter Trogia (support) or Angelia (is mod)
Medic Kaltsit (is mod)
Sniper Rosmonstis (is mod)
Specialist Yato kirin
Defender Saria or penance (both unmoded)

But who to pick for guard ?

[prime mountain]

With your roster? huh amiya and then 4* skip

If you build tequilla maybe him

[heavy pumice]

from that at least i can tell none of them arent fit for IS (maybe different if at low difficulty)

[little glade]

I do have tequila, back then he was discount SA I think ?

[prime mountain]

Discount mwynar

[slate hull]

that is wild, that is like the entire washed guard starter pack

[little glade]

I come back after 3 years of not playing lmao

[prime mountain]

3 years of not playing
Has yato alt

mhmmm

[gaunt bay]

furrilo :roshype:

[little glade]

Dude, it's MH event

Its a sin to miss that

[slate hull]

I do think Tequila might be the best option for now, liberators are quite good in is6

[prime mountain]

came back just to get yato, too real

[little glade]

MH event, with (heavily) implied romance between operator

God forbid I miss that event

[prime mountain]

With the units you have, the units you mentionned on special squad (once upgraded, gives free raidian to start with) can clear up to pretty high diff just skip guard voucher

Considering they are actually built and dont lack modules or masteries

[little glade]

For some reasons this game really love to give me guard voucher

[prime mountain]

Rng is rng

[little glade]

Just last run, they give me 4

[grizzled nexus]

If you have excess, just pick Luo Xiaohei (if you have from the crossover event), or Windscoot.
Useful as they counted as Yan Operators.

[little glade]

That's where you are wrong, the only module I have is gladia and skadi

[prime mountain]

Yato no mod no masteries? Rosmontis s2 masteries? Kal masteries?

Trag is fine he works e1 anyway

[little glade]

I literally play the event, pull Yato, and uninstall lmao

Also every IS MODULE is already built

[faint rampart]

uhh how cope is kirara (assuming +archetto)or i would just be better off recruiting ethan?

[prime mountain]

You would be better off with ethan yes

[little glade]

Can I send you pic of my roster ?

Maybe it can give you better insight ?

I barely can win on difficult 0 lmao

[faint rampart]

thankies for the answer

[prime mountain]

If your units are unbuilt and you have no skill tree because first run, you will lose

IS is not made for beginners

[little glade]

This exploding minion last boss is hellish

[remote badger]

think of

fucking around and find out

[prime mountain]

Also that

[little glade]

So far it's fucking me all right

[remote badger]

also wis is smh piss this time

[prime mountain]

I want to fucking cry

+def + res coin

Big bob leaked at 1 hp

I leaked slugs

because bob killed everyone

then rat leaked at 1 hp

Unfortunate series of events
