Esp for ed1

rocky agate
#

I dont like how regular kal works

#

PLUS

#

She lvl 1 for me rn so

sinful sparrow
#

Do you have Haruka

prime mountain
sinful sparrow
#

literally draft her and your ending 3 heal concerns are gone

#

(as long as you don’t fuck up the opening)

rocky agate
#

plus

#

I did just see footage of her just dismissing bombs in ending 1 with the silly bubbles

#

So I guess that could help next run

prime mountain
#

Which squad you run btw

rocky agate
#

I kinda switch between a few reduce hope cost groups

#

Some variety

remote badger
#

4 class

#

or 2 class

rocky agate
#

Usually 4, but last run was 2

remote badger
#

running 2 classes one might be better

#

especially defsupp

rocky agate
#

Why so

#

Just for more supports

#

?

prime mountain
#

Erh defenders sorry

remote badger
#

oh yeah

rocky agate
#

My main defenders are Saria, Yu, Hosiguma Alter

sinful sparrow
#

Run def/supp
Hoshi raidian haruka

prime mountain
#

yeah hoshi raidian haruka is a comp

#

E1 raidian start into e2 hoshi voucher + another supp in shop?

#

Prob solid opening

sinful sparrow
#

It’s what i played until dlc2

#

its so good

#

because you’re almost guaranteed raidian hoshi e2 into f2 bosky

prime mountain
#

Right but then you're a Raidian abuser fraud

#

!

sinful sparrow
#

you can jist ban raidian and take trag for tempo

#

primarily its hoshi doing the work anyways

#

🤫

prime mountain
#

Hoshi trag when ed2

#

how to blow up

rocky agate
#

I mean I could take tragodia but sometimes hes stinky until e2

prime mountain
#

?

#

He gets 99% value at e1

#

wdym

rocky agate
#

Nah

#

Stinky e1

sinful sparrow
#

you’re fine

#

just draft other solves

prime mountain
sinful sparrow
#

its like gvg having a good matchup into the endings but its way less resillent against shitty bosky maps

stray dove
#

someone doesn't get that some of the strongest ops in AK for IS are ones who get their strongest skill in S2

prime mountain
#

Borken combo

rocky agate
prime mountain
#

!

sinful sparrow
stray dove
#

yeah that needs relics and/or coins

#

for the reduce DP fight

sinful sparrow
#

show leizi alt entel clears ware user C, with no first world falls

stray dove
#

enough to kill the bozos roadblocked

sinful sparrow
#

thats right

sinful sparrow
#

no proof

stray dove
#

before they start draining

sinful sparrow
#

🫃

rocky agate
#

Welp another run

prime mountain
stray dove
#

DP hell

rocky agate
#

Im going until I rech level 80 on the rewards

stray dove
#

i got the gist

prime mountain
#

Oh it clears

rocky agate
#

Then I just give up again

prime mountain
#

Leizi can open

#

its easy

#

Like unironically

#

simple

stray dove
#

when he said no first world falls

#

is Lazer cheap with some relics?

sinful sparrow
#

max pot leizi probably

stray dove
#

like 7-8 DP?

sinful sparrow
#

🫃

rocky agate
#

Wait dude

prime mountain
#

but its fine

#

Ive done it before

rocky agate
#

The 2 squad reduce I took was the defender support

#

And I only got two support vouchers

stray dove
#

RELATIVELY SIMPLE ......1 FRAME DEPLOY

rocky agate
#

wth

stray dove
#

YEAH FUCKING SURE

prime mountain
#

Average is6 bosky fight

#

Just spam pause until you see the one frame

#

then deploy

#

shrimple

#

!

remote badger
#

1/60 secs SoraWow

prime mountain
#

Alternatively, any source of shield also works

#

Since it makes the snipers not steal dp

#

dodge too

stray dove
#

wait

#

those types of relics buff those roadblocks?

prime mountain
#

Yep

#

And the snipers need to actually do damage to steal dp

stray dove
#

that's at best 10-15% for the dodge

prime mountain
#

Brooch stocks going up

stray dove
#

shield....does Tongbao shield coin work?

prime mountain
#

Yep

stray dove
#

damn

#

so that's a cheat code for Ware C

rocky agate
#

Wish me luck twins pear_sad

prime mountain
#

Mika been real quiet since I posted proof BlitzSmile

stray dove
#

1 fucking frame...

#

i'd rather just try to get relics or tongbaos

#

that help Ware C

prime mountain
#

yeah do that

#

Or just get max pot leizi

stray dove
#

i skipped Lazer for a reason

#

she wasn't must-pull when i asked Cube

#

during her banner

prime mountain

  1. Are you using S3 2. Are you using haruka and 3. No way shu is ur answer for survival

Does Bilibili like require a CN ID or number to get an account?
No not exactly

remote badger

i hate using my id card for stuffs like that

floral mist
#

It need your citizenship ID, but yeah, can see why people don't want that

sinful sparrow
#

guess you're not playing CN then

remote badger
#

govs and companies could just literally track ur activities

sinful sparrow

🚬

#

it's all just a problem between
"we're publicly saying that we will your ID"

versus

"we already have your ID thanks to agencies selling your data to us"

remote badger

ig borrowing time

it's not that deep

skipping silveralt is fine bc i will get p6 wang

Yo guys

In IS5 floor 3

The kaltist boss can be soloed by wisadel rt?

sonic sable

Why does no arts fighter aside from surtr has res shred

tired wyvern

Do yk any way to prevent that from happening?

remote badger

just bait the drones

rocky agate

Beat it with just 2 lives left too 😭

#

Lowkey was shaking

But now I dont have to do ending 3 again basil_smile

cyan pasture
#

Nice, no more balls to deal with

rocky agate
#

I honestly like Wang

#

But damn bro

#

Typical ending 3 boss

#

Just such a tedious task to reach

cyan pasture
#

if i recall only candle holders can fight him right?

rocky agate
#

Yea

#

Which sucks cause I got my haruka too late for that fight

#

But a win was a win

#

Honestly my coins were fucking amazing too

cyan pasture
#

Nice

rocky agate
#

Not a single one was a big drawback

cyan pasture
#

Pretty cool

rocky agate
#

So now I just wait for the next update

#

Or go play IS4

cyan pasture
#

I have a bunch of resources to work towards for is2 for me

Is Lin good for ending 3 since her aoe?

#

Why did I have to fight frostnova and patriot in Is??

#

Like i wet inside the gap with 2 plans, it out me in a boss fight 😭

#

But I still managed to finish the fight, although patriot went in the objective on his second life

#

Surprisingly i didn't die, I lost 5 life points

#

Are there any other modes which put u in random boss fights like this?

severe oasis
#

its not random

#

its the ending 3 route

tired wyvern
stray dove
#

ending 3 route makes you go through a bosky

tired wyvern
#

I still fought fre mont

woeful anchor
#

yes u did

stray dove
tired wyvern
severe oasis
#

did you take the time and light relic from the prophecy in the bosky

tired wyvern
stray dove
#

THERE

severe oasis
#

then yeah thats why

#

you take that and then you will get ending 3

woeful anchor
tired wyvern
#

OHH I COULD HAVE GOTTEN Another ENDING???

severe oasis
#

yes

woeful anchor
#

and didnt get the 2nd ed3 relic

tired wyvern
stray dove
#

take gun -> fight fremont -> get to floor 6 and fight Patriot Sankta

#

simple as that

tired wyvern
#

I should have done it

#

😭

woeful anchor
#

white patrick

severe oasis
#

its fine its easy to do, just go to lost and found and take the square box option again

tired wyvern
#

What's on floor 6?

stray dove
#

some just take that Ed3 horn, take the free bosky, and skip gun

#

just to have more fights

#

and stall the run

tired wyvern
#

Yea

#

That gives more bp exp too right?

tired wyvern
stray dove
#

ending 3 fight

#

or ending 4 fight

#

depending on what you took

tired wyvern
tired wyvern
stray dove
#

IS ending 3 or 4 bosses

Ahh okay

you only get floor 6 when going through Ending 3 or 4 routes

honestly not sure

#

ask cube

which 4 star sniper would be the most useful generally for IS?

severe oasis

heady robin
#

thank you

woeful anchor
#

does nasti s3 remain on field if u retreat her

cyan pasture
#

any 6 star core to start with in an is5? is raidian good there?

stray dove
cyan pasture
stray dove
#

it's not like it needs to be lvl3

#

but you might as well max upgrade it

#

before removing Nasti

#

to get the best value

cyan pasture
#

i recall it being required

stray dove
#

either way it's better that way

woeful anchor
#

im thinking nasti for a relicless

sinful sparrow
#

fib pls

#

ur not cooking

😢

woeful anchor
#

but i need to calculate if u have enough time

This mode is sadistic

#

7 runs

#

All failed on floor 2 because I didn't get a single ranged voucher

#

Specialist vanguard specialist vanguard specialist vanguard

#

I wasted 4 hours of my life

icy lake
#

no exialter or swire alter IS mod?

uneven dew
#

I'm already using exu

#

She can't deal with everything

#

Multi exit maps

#

How am I supposed to kill flamethrower guys with only defenders and vanguards

#

Ridiculous rates

#

I swear sniper vouchers are like SSR rarity

#

Like 2% chance to show up

#

Not even a single supporter voucher

#

It's INSANE

#

Is it lowering my rates of getting snipers and casters because I'm running high ground squad or what

#

If so that's a cruel joke

sly harness
#

The flamethrowers stage shouldn't be that hard. You can use Exu rotated left positioned on the right range tiles to cause chain reaction

#

Like e.g. just E2 Ente + e1 May can clear this stage

sly harness
pastel saffron
#

I assume ur talking about IS6

#

there is one that comes out from top

#

u kill it, explodes

#

and chains

#

usually having an agent helps too at low diff

#

can kill a thrower and start chain

#

Map knowledge will help ig, early maps are usually simple enough tho if you solve stages regularly you can figure them out very quickly

uneven dew
uneven dew
pastel saffron
uneven dew
pastel saffron
#

u juat deploy her, when she kills enemy u retreat her

#

use s1

uneven dew
#

She can't kill a flame before dying to it

#

And then there's the stupid tree level with 2 lanes of high density enemies

pastel saffron
#

if u put exia on top whwre I place red cross

#

she can kill flamethrower when it comes out from red box

#

that can start chain too

uneven dew
pastel saffron
pastel saffron
#

she can even then survive atleast 1 fireball no?

#

and her dmg should be pretty good to kill the guy in that time

#

with s1

uneven dew
#

Don't the flamethrowers also have 2 range

pastel saffron
#

even if canta dies enemy lives, hp should be low

#

just use any one else

#

I am pretty sure they dont hit canta on that tile

#

I have placed her there many times

#

Raidian can solo it so u xan start ur runs by borrowing raidian too

uneven dew
#

Does she respawn fast enough for the next wave

pastel saffron
#

see they are not hitting raidian summon

chrome tangle
pastel saffron
#

having raidian makes multi lanes very easy

#

from next time do borrow her if ur d2 or above

chrome tangle
#

D12 wtfart

pastel saffron
#

but with sui hand u need quite the help

uneven dew
pastel saffron
pastel saffron
chrome tangle
#

you can't borrow ops mid is

pastel saffron
#

so u start with exia + raidian + myrtle

uneven dew
#

But how would I have enough hope for that

#

That's 12 hope

pastel saffron
#

raidian costs 2 hope right

#

oh wait

chrome tangle
#

u need kettle

pastel saffron
#

u dont have hope upgrade prolly

uneven dew
#

I only have 6

pastel saffron
#

or raidian + humus + purestream

#

just start with this

#

raidian costs 2 hope

#

4* cost 0 hope

#

u should have 4 left

#

just conserve f1 vouchers

uneven dew
#

Why does raid cost 2 hope?

pastel saffron
uneven dew
#

Like literally half of my vouchers were vanguard

pastel saffron
uneven dew
#

I draft her every time

pastel saffron
#

and if u keep getting them

#

get myrtle

#

if u get them again

#

just skip

uneven dew
#

I have her too I start with her

pastel saffron
#

every run is different anyway

#

Well if one run u get vg

#

surely next run u dont

faint rampart
pastel saffron
#

u can also use special squad @uneven dew

uneven dew
#

I tried 7 times

pastel saffron
#

u don't need to borrow raidian in special squad

#

if ur d2 or above

uneven dew
#

I've never gotten anything other than vanguard specialist for my entire first two floors

faint rampart
uneven dew
#

The only time I got one caster I gambled on Lapland

pastel saffron
#

like tell u what to do

uneven dew
#

Only to be hard blocked by two aoe heavy levels and died

pastel saffron
#

maybe that helps

uneven dew
#

It's 4 am I need to sleep

#

Maybe tomorrow...

btw do you take SAlter in IS6?

damn

i can imagine boss-worthy slash assistance is part of the reason

woeful anchor

i think he just scales better with relics

than ines

#

cc relic
atk relic
all buffs him more than ines

also gnosussy combo ig tho idk if its real or just new toy syndrome

#

when do you feel comfortable to draft him?

#

after having 2 DPS carries?

pastel saffron
#

this was my convo with him

#

when ur ready to draft vg which is usually agent, if u have spare hope u can draft sash instead is what I understood

stray dove
#

that means he brings enough to the table to be a comfortable 2nd 6* recruit

pastel saffron
#

u can prolly just use him as the only vg throughout the run

Any Operators Good for Ending 5 of IS6?

pastel saffron
stray dove
#

just no hesitation

#

SAlter and Gnosis as first words

#

and yeah i can see the lack of specific ops suspects

#

and it's because they aren't made for large amt of mobs

#

but they doing the entire triple 6* Karlann combo (excluding Degen of course)

sinful sparrow
#

good 6* guard (its mlynar)

stray dove
#

of course it is

stray dove
#

he scales better

#

i even remember Cube talking about a tongbao in expansion

#

that increases ATK flatly

#

and it scales to a cap

sinful sparrow
#

you probably don’t need gnosis

stray dove
#

and i said, sounds perfect for Mly

#

and he said absolutely

sinful sparrow
#

i dont see yyx drafts it for his 235+4D t3 runs

stray dove
sinful sparrow
#

(mf drafts sakiko so idk)

pastel saffron
#

Believe in Saki Chan

sinful sparrow
#

the meta seems correct

#

i’ve seen a couple nerds saying exu isnt needed but i am still not sold on that yet

stray dove
#

theyre built for large amts of mob

#

the lack of Geexu cemented it

pastel saffron
#

bait did say exu wisadel

so they are still picked

#

although i reckon based on comfort

#

cause Hoshitter and/or Raidian can just carry Turmoils

for guard he have seen these 3

#

hoe is only if you see chalice

#

if you dont have aspd

#

please dont draft this mf

pastel saffron
#

well they are doing 150 relic runs

#

what are the odds of not

#

getting chalice

sinful sparrow
#

degen might be replacable once we get chen if her numbers surpass

#

and mlynar is mlynar

pastel saffron
#

Yeah chen might I was thinking that too

#

Archetto comp also gets better

#

if irene js good

remote badger
pastel saffron
#

I wanna see what Irene mod does so bad

#

I hope irs good

stray dove
#

Degen mentioned

#

damn that's 4 Karlann if you really wanna go the full combo

#

it really depends on the runner

#

i reckon

pastel saffron
#

things happen

stray dove
#

isn't that technically what happened in IS5 with Lamp consistency?

#

everything molded into a squad that best uses Lamp spawns

pastel saffron
#

Yes

stray dove
#

to the point that triple flinger became THE thing

pastel saffron
#

Tjats why hoe was good too

#

IS5 is so bad

stray dove
#

and Hoed kicked out Ulp

pastel saffron
#

🚮

#

I hope they never make an IS like that again

stray dove
#

i mean

#

we got IS6 up to Exp2

#

i think we know we're in good hands

#

but yeah, HG does get a LOT crazy

#

when they want to implement power

pastel saffron
#

Real

#

They are mor3 sensitive as I said to IS feedback tho

stray dove
#

cause just reading new tongbaos in exp1 and exp2

pastel saffron
#

so lets see

stray dove
#

from Cube's description

#

is absurd

pastel saffron
#

people are saying they want hands back

#

so they might re add them

stray dove
#

up to them

pastel saffron
#

why exp1 is easier

#

I never asked

stray dove
#

for me the new designs of relics to be still specific

#

but not TOO specific is pretty good

pastel saffron
#

but everyone says u can do crazy things atter exp1

stray dove
#

it doesn't filter relics to just work on a few subclasses

pastel saffron
#

yeah I like that too

#

I really like IS6

#

might be my fav besides IS3

pastel saffron
#

what happens after expansion 1

stray dove
#

the only reason i still like IS5 is because of Quilon and Amiya's multiphase boss fights

pastel saffron
#

rn I know we have new endings

stray dove
#

even if it does devolve into stat checks

pastel saffron
#

and then u have the actual mechanics

stray dove
#

crafting relics was boring

#

reroll-oriented mechanics are too strong

#

Lamp didn't help those issues

#

but yeah the other parts of it are pretty good

pastel saffron
#

what were they even thinking crrating a sandbox type environment

#

did the cries of IS3 players

#

hurt them that much

stray dove
#

no its more like

#

Foldartals was pretty good

#

and it did warp what nodes you can change

#

they just went overboard in turning it into a major mechanic

#

aka doodle, talons, lamp

arctic breach
#

2

stray dove
#

yeah i was about to say ed2

#

due to design of the node

pastel saffron
#

why didn't u bring exia

#

the idea is to use haruka to keep raidian alive

#

raidian should be on s2

#

if raidian dies ur cooked

arctic breach
#

I don't have apple pie2

pastel saffron
#

for right lane, m3 + raidian summon can take care of it

#

for left lane ethan can do with hitcount

#

u cant leak everything on left

#

idk how much dmg miksa does

#

but if he can kill those enemies

#

ethan can do hitcount

arctic breach
#

Eh i just picked him and saga because they were free

#

Should i switch the old man for Ethan

pastel saffron
#

I would take ines s3 maybe, ines atk steal can help keep ur raidian alive

pastel saffron
#

actually what is rosmontis doing, Can she kill the guys

#

Ig u can keep her

arctic breach
#

I have lots of hp boosting relics would that help

pastel saffron
#

u can place raidian and haruka here

#

keeping them alive is most important

#

for left lane if u kill initial stuff u can leak a bit

#

and then kill late waves too

#

ethan + help

#

Ig help can be ros or miksa

#

u can put haruka and raidian both at top too together, just make sure u bait boss somewhere else

if u forget to bait, very likely he attacks ur raidian coz his hit prio is highest density>bottom>left

#

u can just bait boss with 2 raidian summon towards bottom

#

actually another issue is dealing dmg to boss later

#

but if u can atleast get to 54/55

#

we can see

#

mon3tr can prolly do good dmg along with some raidian summon, ros aint gon do shit for boss if u run s3

arctic breach
#

Yeah s3 rosy won't work here

#

We can't block the foot

pastel saffron
# arctic breach I don't have apple pie2

borrow her from nezt time, she cheeses ed2

without hwr u need atk reduction, in ur current squad only atk reduction is ines and she needs to stay on field to keep it activated

just make sure with s3 the thing hits the boss, the sentry

pastel saffron
#

Ig pillar does spawn on an enemy by default tho

arctic breach
#

Is the blue x suppose to put raiden there?

sinful sparrow
#

on DLC1 changes

#

That makes it easier

@nocturne cape any reason why some nerds start with sus over purestream

they might be up to sth new

pfinderf2 fight?

sinful sparrow
#

there isn't a pf on f1

faint rampart
#

oh wait

#

mb f2

stray dove
#

curious

#

wonder what the reasoning is

pastel saffron
#

maybe to keep shit alive for f1 shop

#

rob

#

weirdge

stray dove

it shouldn't be

quick pond
#

How to get Old Steam Armor in IS6?

stray dove
#

F1 rob is non optimal

#

post-exp1

stray dove
#

you just wait for it to drop or get sold

fickle jungle
#

I read cube's strat and i kind of get it
Start sus since you gotta choose the special fight option on f2 and f4
F2 special fight is for a 6* thats not radian
Pureatream is really slow at healing so it might be the case

#

Tho cube's strat also includes f1 rob as well

stray dove
#

cube still robs F1 huh

#

so he isn't valuing the extra 3 candle visit as necessary

fickle jungle
#

Its pre-dlc strat

stray dove
#

who the fuck does Pathfinder fights in F2

#

if it ain't post-DLC D18 that lowers hope discount of conserved vouchers

#

unless this is Tourist squad to get more fights for coins

#

there's no reason to do an F2 Pathfinder fight

fickle jungle
#

We are still in pre-dlc...

stray dove
#

Cube plays CN

sly harness
#

For Bosky you only need Raidian + Amiya

fickle jungle
#

Actually i re-think about it
So f1 candle radian
F2 special fight 6* + bosky option to use saved voucher
So thats 3 man with 2 6* and another 4* or 5* to start clearing f2 bosky

#

Dlc2 nerfs hope discount so it might be legit

stray dove
#

i mean that's the biggest point

sly harness
#

I would use vouchers normally and save the 1 Candle

stray dove
#

why CN players

#

don't do conserved voucher shit anymore

#

it's just not valuable enough

#

not in d18 runs

sly harness
#

More Candleholder, like fight is only 1/2 per node and saved vouchers 4

remote badger
#

pfind nodes is now -1 isnt it

#

on max diff

stray dove
#

yeah

#

-2 -> -1

#

people thought they'd attack vertical coupon use and inflate it

#

naw man

#

they went bigger

#

and nerfed conservation discount by fucking half

sinful sparrow
#

yawn

stray dove
#

even in vanilla?

#

damn

faint rampart
#

wtf is vanillaCeobeConfused

#

also idk much about blockshift, but is it possible to push this guy into hole?

sly harness
#

pre dlc1

  • Special and Def/Sup can use it to force Raidian to be a Candholder
  • Def/Sup opens e1 Trag into Hoshi in shop to rob then Hoshi takes f2 fight
  • Gvg can open e2 Leizi or e1 Ente into e2 Leizi for shop rob. Leizi takes f2 fight in both
  • Spec/Cast opens e2 Mizuki to rob, he also takes f2 fight
stray dove
#

so it really is just all about squeezing every value in a node

#

instead of just spamming candling+recruit/promote on multiple good voucher picks

sly harness
#

currently this is mainly about having a option to shop rob and minimizing the risk related to not getting the vouchers needed to clear f2 Bosky

stray dove
#

i guess i still don't play optimally enough

#

I actually try to avoid clearing any Turmoils in F2 WiW

#

just in case i get F3 stirfry

#

the lack of relic drops or vouchers is not an issue due to F1 purchases -> refresh -> robbing

#

and Ji shop purchases

sly harness
#

Not worth it. You are risking exploding on f3 boss/f4

stray dove
#

for context

#

i don't ban anything

#

i just feel like Raidian Geexu and/or Hoshitter can carry so much

sly harness
#

Especially in this case. Raidian has great Bosky matchups and she takes most of the animals

#

So you will get a lot of collectibles

#

Like Raidian f2 Bosky = having 20+ collectibles when leaving f2

sinful sparrow
#

not doing combats also necessarily implies wasting a lot of candles on shitty nodes

#

leading to unexplored maps

sly harness
#

Also after f3 boss you will only get 5 more Candles on f4 (-1 for ed3) so if you don't have ed2/you haven't saved candles from f2/f3, 4 Candles won't be enough to do anything meaningful

sinful sparrow
#

sounds like a disgustingly shit cope to "save combats for stirfry"

#

like i could understand if you're running Tianshi dlc2

#

but pre-dlc lol

sly harness
#

What is more not doing Turmoils = no Coupons = no verticals

stray dove
#

yeah requires doubt luck

#

but that means my F2 is purely for opening up the WiW

#

and F4 is cleaning up

sinful sparrow
#

...why?

#

ew

stray dove
#

i thought i could get away with it. Got lucky i reckon

#

was trying to preserve turmoils

#

for 2 reasons

sly harness
#

You should save Legends for later

#

They have better value then

stray dove
#
  1. Stirfry. Fucking stretch i know
  2. I prefer to clear Turmoils with 1 candle
sly harness
#

Especially if you don't have Ingots

stray dove
#

so F4 was a safer bet

faint rampart
sinful sparrow
#

...and how does raidian hoshi not clear 1 candle turmoil on e2?

sly harness
#

And the Retrieve nodes are shit in 90% of cases

stray dove
#

i greed a LOT

sinful sparrow
#

?

faint rampart
#

both help and IS station having fun convosFlameHappy

sly harness
#

You just need to learn Raidian metchups most of them are 1 Candle

stray dove
#

your definition of #help "fun"....what is it?

sinful sparrow
#

stirfry savers 🤢

sly harness
#

Even things like Confusion should be 1 candle with Hoshi some collectibles

sinful sparrow
#

coping on the one singular relic and int progression

#

🤢

sly harness
#

The only Turmoil I would save is Four Difficulties A

sinful sparrow
#

i cba to read from the start

#

i would save four diffs

#

sweet sweet ingots

#

😋

#

and relics

faint rampart
stray dove
#

btw any videos on how to do F2 clears of 2 Turmoil types:

  1. the one with the hallway of statuegeists
  2. the one with one half purely for flying enemies, the other half spams either Smartys or revenant fuel
remote badger
sly harness
#

B can be done with Raidian Amiya all chests in 1

sinful sparrow
#

confusion - revenant variant is hoshi amiya raidian 1 candle

#

confusion - sapid variant lol good luck, f2 not doable

Wait for 80 DP turn everything off

Place raidian S3

sinful sparrow
#

what if i want to greed the ingots

stray dove
#

good to know

sinful sparrow
#

then you're forced to take s2 or those things aint dying :joyplush:

sly harness
#

With the map with flying enemies on right? Raidian takes them

sinful sparrow
#

but then if you're taking raidian s2, you'll need someone to kill air enemies

#

yeah

#

me personally i have been leaking big bob if i can't kill him on f1 so i can reap 4 ingots

#

🚬

#

how broken

sly harness
sinful sparrow
#

yeah it's a good habit

sly harness
sinful sparrow
#

the ingots add up quick

#

and more ingots = more relics

(for dlc2)
