If her module levitate was 4 or 5s then you can go for perma cc with frds

no its good for unchallenge content

Ok thanks👍

at least not the biggest ones that matter

and also theres not really any reason to ever use s2 over s3
its just if you're lazy
stray dove
not even...
severe oasis
which wont fly in IS
stray dove
if you want a really good Sakiko AFK Mujica squad
S1
thats the real AFK skill for Sakiko
severe oasis
i think s2 is overall better for laneholding no? s1 can just do actual dmg if needed

S2 is for fever fueling

Either Wang becomes broken in Ed5 or becomes broken in burn.
i know you guys want the former

lets see if HG gives a fuck though
cause right now
if they do nothing, that's a loss for IS
stray dove
btw how long does HG usually fix unintended interactions?
or bugs
there's got to be a time when we just assume that it's intended by HG since it's been long enough
stray dove
waiting for a week is too long by that point?
cold fjord
not exactly
stray dove
regarding such interactions, we never get news from HG anyways
and they just stealth fix shit

it's in patchnotes

stray dove
Idt this is unintended
I mean thats the thing.
I will rely on CN players if HG says anything about unintended or shit
cold fjord
the ones you place manually are sourced
stray dove
or patch notes
cold fjord
so he dies

cause right now we have no confirmation

the ones you place manually are sourced

Is king’s armor going to kill me if I only have 1 life point?
stray dove
no relic can kill you outside a fight
no non-battle option can kill you either in nodes
pure oyster
It says it subtracts 1 life point after each battle
stray dove
cause they'd just disable any sacc life if you're at 1
pure oyster
Ah
I was like uhhh cause I got all the kings things because I was at life point 1 and then I was looking at them and I’m like oops was that a trap 
I’m starting to see why people enjoy is though
stray dove
it's still a shaky thing to use King relics pre-IS5
cause lowering LP without killing your shield is not easy
especially when you get max HP increases in 2 separate level ups
which ruins a 1 LP setup unless you can lower it to 1 easily
pure oyster
I was already at 1 LP
stray dove
what command lvl are you right now?
pure oyster
Level 5?
pure oyster
pure oyster
I see
stray dove
youre in IS5
lowering LP to 1 is easy
hell, lowering LP in IS6 is also easy. But you need to exert more resources in keeping it 1 LP (Ji Shop purchases and revisits)
i guess that's why hand relics returned in IS6 but they still didn't include King relics?
errant siren
It doesn't matter, there's no Kings in IS6
pure oyster
This feels broken but I also feel like I’ll probably lose soon lol

as for King relics in IS2....yeah no such things as shields. Only Temp HP

What’s this portal I can summon with witchcraft
literally portal
its basically portable scout node
remote badger

that's how IS works, you die because of a draft gap and from now on you know what to watch out for and try not to repeat it

nova cedar
the other stage is worse
earnest shuttle
2*
nova cedar
Nerverous impairment + Vision block + 6 operator eating plants that rotate around the only non vision blocked tiles
faint rampart
its not draft choise its have this or lose
well that's why you kinda pick ops which uhh can deal with many mechs instead of failing i guess
nova cedar
either tank 8 lifepoints or have a nuke operator to clean up the eating plants
sly harness
Nerverous impairment + Vision block + 6 operator eating plants that rotate aroun...
this one is indeed hard but you can jsut skip it
nova cedar
nuke as in kirin yato type nuker
woeful anchor
damn i have not heard yato being called a nuke in ages
sly harness
you need specific things for this (e.g. Raidian)
nova cedar
yea lock radian e2 behind fucking difficulty two for what
i cleared difficulty 1 after like 20 attempts
but find out i have to do it again
for e2
i got sakikos best collectable but the run got fucked over by the shitty plants
faint rampart
i cleared difficulty 1 after like 20 attempts
bro many people here have cleared d2 without so many problems
maybe its not entirely the games fault🥹
earnest shuttle
every IS is like that 
you clear low diff to unlock higher diff
lose your run to learn from your mistake, pick your fight
sly harness
It's a bit of a strange design how much this IS is centered around Raidan. With Raidian, it's pretty easy, so d0-d2 can be harder than d3-d10, for example.
woeful anchor
i got sakikos best collectable but the run got fucked over by the shitty plants
thats the issue ur drafting bad guards
draft leizi
🗣️
sly harness
just use a real strong carry to go past first difficulties Wis/Exu/Trag
nova cedar
nice i put down steward to block the projectile but it goes through him
and kills my archetto
faint rampart
😵💫
woeful anchor
erm if ur drafting bad units and losing thats on u
nova cedar
apparently if the projectile leaves the crossbow it ignores any operator deployed after
even if its blocking
sly harness
this stage wants you to place evertyhing on the boss and just nuke him
earnest shuttle
now you know yeah
sly harness
also why steward, 4* are free
faint rampart
its not archetto aspd oonga boonga meta, if you're playing niche then deal with it
earnest shuttle
Maybe they havent raised click
nova cedar
offensive recoery
sly harness
any nerd knows the number? steward with Archetto vs Click
also Click is better agains hit count
with his/her ( ) dron thingi
grizzled nexus
Pudding is not too bad for hitcount, though only if there is at least 2 enemies so it can bounce
sly harness
the DP cost
faint rampart
steel relic
I think Pudding is still worse than Click until like 4 enemies
Cuz chain casters attack slow as balls
And can’t bounce back to already hit targets except during Pudding s2
nova cedar
nice now the recruitment stage not spawn
im sitting on 50 ingots 10 hope and 4 maxed vouchers
earnest shuttle
pathfinder ?
nova cedar
and forced into emgerency ops
sly harness
Indigo has bleed on S2... but her bind is not reliable on e1 (but maybe with Ethan)
sly harness
tbf Ethan is mediocre (only 1 hit per second). just pick Ascalon or Yan 4*
sly harness
f4 is a problem not f2
and you can pick her f2, only 4 Hope in Pathfinder and you get that for level up
steel relic
Isn’t Ascalon also only 1 hit/s
tranquil lintel
i got pepe, stainless, horn, eyjafialla, suruzan, exusai, Gladia and Blaze alter, who should i priortize investing for IS?
steel relic
Exu regular or alter?
If regular then none of them are particularly good anywhere in IS
sly harness
Isn’t Ascalon also only 1 hit/s
To be honest I'm not sure but she has a movement speed reduction, a real attack and a DoT that lasts for 25 seconds so even if something leaves her attack range it will most likely be finished off anyway
and her DoT stacks but I'm not sure about the details
steel relic
I’m pretty sure it’s just the damage that builds up
Thorns delta does the same thing
faint rampart
glad to know archetto players atleast dont use kirara
wraith warren
Is there a list of IS mods only
stray dove
damn i have not heard yato being called a nuke in ages
IS6 ed2,4,5 have some bosses with wide targets
not entirely a "nuke"
but it's pretty good damage
remote badger
Is there a list of IS mods only
no maybe
faint rampart
https://arknights.wiki.gg/wiki/Operator_Module#Specialized
doesn't have irene yet
sly harness
not entirely a "nuke"
and then darft her in d18 IS3 and she can't even kill the spiders in wafu in 1 skill
wraith warren

Never knew gnosis had 1

nocturne cape
Maybe
remote badger
u know what it is
nocturne cape
Deploy your exu first so she wont be targeted
And put shu on the other side
Exu can live with shield + self heal
dreamy rampart
what side
nocturne cape
Normally i put her top but maybe put her bottom because thats where the first batch of enemies will spawn
dreamy rampart
How does the boss targeting work
pastel saffron
this good for is6 ed3 diff 10?
yes u win
shu can heal 2 range units
exia can heal herself
even if someone is about ro die
turn on hoshi red mode
she wont let allies die
dreamy rampart
without medics is hard
dot relic and -sp, shu couldn't even heal fast
i have too many recruitment vouchers after floor 5 i was kinda hoping for a pathfinder node at floor 6 but there's nothing
languid vault
zahahahhahaha
pastel saffron
without medics is hard
damn u lost
long bane
guys just got some Times to do IS5 why it's harder than is 6 and the rest before 5? what starter squad should i use? also any tips to defeat theresis? even with logos i barely kill him
sly harness

lack of knowledge
steel relic
Is5 is comically easy once you learn how lamp of wishes works
Theresis gains massive damage resistance based on how close he is to Theresa + casters are kinda bad
sly harness
IS5 is the easiest and most chesseable if you know what you're doing
long bane
lack of knowledge
true, maybe i just need to learn by doing it
still had now idea what those paper like relic do is(that paper with class icon in it)
sly harness
for Theresis p2 draft some True Damage, Kal, Mon3tr, Amiya Caster
long bane
they seems need something inorder to works no?
long bane
for Theresis p2 draft some True Damage, Kal, Mon3tr, Amiya Caster
i haven't think of that somehow true damage didn't appear on my head since then
fresh cloud
Which stage is the finale? I cleared ED5 run but its still locked
sly harness
Which stage is the finale? I cleared ED5 run but its still locked
clear ed5 again
fresh cloud
Ah okay
sly harness

they gain stacks per Bosky you enter (per "cursed, Bosky" collectible" you have)
errant siren
Which stage is the finale? I cleared ED5 run but its still locked
You need to clear End5 once again.
That's all.
nocturne cape
Yeah?
We know this since day 1 of dlc2
Theyre nerfed too i think
Theres also sarkaz king and hands
But they wont appear in the regular relic pool
sly harness
just one of those "themed" shops
but ed4 and the other collectible and overwrites it
sinful sparrow
@nocturne cape oh yeah, wdyt of 3 combats on F1
after getting fucked by voucher rng runs after runs, i think im advocating for it
just so you can get f2 bosky going
nocturne cape
Only on tourist
sinful sparrow
(i was playing tianshi)
nocturne cape
Then no
Youre wasting bosky into scout on F2
F2 bosky is not the only way to play the game
sinful sparrow
i am fairly interested how people navigate a shit f2 bosky (no e2 raidian)
since you're probably gonna waste your steps right
or do you just
save
nocturne cape
Save
sinful sparrow
of course it is
nocturne cape
If you cant do anything
sinful sparrow
🥀
sinful sparrow
yeah thats fair
dry moss
I was reading some docs but I found kinda hard to follow almost every single meta draft mentioned so far... didnt found in the docs so ill ask here, is there a budget "meta" draft for every IS that used 1 borrow? and by draft I mean something more elaborated than just say something like "just wisadel it", even tho walter is the optimal borrow I kinda want to know how to route, which collectibles to aim for, the initial squad buff to select, etc...
hallow vale
whats sakiko skill prio?

elaborate further on the question
sinful sparrow
it's too vague to actually give any meaningful advice
first off, waht theme
sui, sarkaz, sami, mizuki or phantom
dry moss
hmm idk wdym tbh, but every theme, I want to start clearing every IS available (I didnt really touched it much so far)
raw cypress
So a general one
dry moss
yea most likely, but the pool of collectibles, routing, mechanics will differ for each one ig
also probably the borrow
sinful sparrow
hmm idk wdym tbh, but every theme, I want to start clearing every IS available (...
i would recommend joining ISC
i'll send you an invite
there's a general IS guide, and then for each theme just ask around
dry moss
but what bothered me from these docs so far are mainly the meta drafts, because I cant really follow any 100%... they all ask limited units so not replicable unless u started playing long time ago
dry moss
i'll send you an invite
but yea sure
sly harness
when it comes to low difficulties and first endings usually Wisadel/Exu2 are the picks that can solo carry you
sinful sparrow
but what bothered me from these docs so far are mainly the meta drafts, because ...
on low difficulty, you can very much get away with exusiai alter borrow
she's so ridiculously strong
the very rule of thumb for IS is
prioritize combats over other types of nodes unless you have a very good reason to not take them
dry moss
on low difficulty, you can very much get away with exusiai alter borrow
but like starting squad buff (leader, sniper, whatnot), collectibles, the maps you pick just doesnt matter?
oh nvm, ig ur explaining this part

This should mostly cover the basic concepts when it comes to IS

you need to have your coffer be almost all risk coins too
to guarantee the win against ling
long bane
you need to have your coffer be almost all risk coins too
i did have but didnt find ling
if i do i only have 70ish ingot
also that gambling node only had 2? 3 if lucky or more?
arctic panther
i did have but didnt find ling <:DocSmile:1213036172524126240>
thats gonna be a common occurence

you should first find Ling on f1/f2 then worry about the rest

well ling node is rarer
arctic panther
much rarer
sly harness
apparently 1 in 15 runs
chrome tangle
you are not expected to find it consistently, its just consistent to end your runs early if you don't find it assuming u are trying to get it
arctic panther
i’ve only seen ling node like
twice?
i think?
but thats partially because i dont gamble very often

what happens when you ask radian to scout ahead in the encounter concentricity
long bane
apparently 1 in 15 runs
sly harness
what happens when you ask radian to scout ahead in the encounter concentricity
very easy EM combat
(if your Raidian is e2)
arctic panther
what happens when you ask radian to scout ahead in the encounter concentricity
em combat that becomes trivial if you have e2 raidian
