Oh that's a lot better

[heavy pumice]

that how IS work, secretly being capitalist😂

[remote badger]

we care about profit

resource management

[woeful anchor]

yep now bend ov-

[remote badger]

what the fuck fib

both of u should go rent a hotel room now

[faint rampart]

[faint rampart]

i think he likes it here...with everyone

[west quarry]

u want us to watch?

[woeful anchor]

i wont say...

[crystal niche]

guys

does land reclamation have a plan

[sly harness]

Kill enmies before they kill you. More seriously, having a fast redemption operator to bait Artillery skills and then having someone you can drop to kill them will be helpful

[crystal niche]

no

i meant

[faint rampart]

spine

[crystal niche]

yes

[sly harness]

no

[faint rampart]

^maybe its right idk

[sly harness]

it don't

[crystal niche]

why on tomimi theres a pic

of a spine

[sly harness]

Catastrophes

[crystal niche]

rahhhhh

fuck

[sly harness]

it has a mark and it means that it is from Catastrophes

[crystal niche]

not me bricking a run because i didnt know that

[crystal niche]

fuckkk

[sly harness]

generally assume that f5 has zero Spines/Plans (only 2 maps have one of them, naturally)

[woeful anchor]

just roll catastrophies

[gilded burrow]

How many ending is there for the sui IS? Is the wei qi one the final one?

[sly harness]

3, we will get 4th in a few days

[midnight summit]

Yea expansion is with the ch16 release

[crystal niche]

uh

is this a fucking alternate?

[sly harness]

ye, but very easy one

[crystal niche]

uh

what counts as easy

[sly harness]

Personally, I would say it's easier than the normal version

[crystal niche]

oh ok

[sly harness]

Put everyone on the bottom two lanes and the boss won't even bother them for most of the stage

[crystal niche]

i lost 1 life point

[surreal field]

For best IS experience, would you guys suggest looking up ED2 or trying to figure it out on your own? How obscure is it? (IS6)

[sly harness]

Personally I always recommend thoroughly reading and understanding the mechanics

(on wiki or tomimi, in game descriptions are ass)

[surreal field]

Alright, I'll look it up then! (and to clarify, I meant the way to get to ED2, not the boss fight tactics or whatever)

[sly harness]

Oh… This might be easier to find out. I guess it mostly depends on your preference and how much time you have to experiment and fail before figuring it out

[surreal field]

Read up a little on Wiki, does ED2 boss only do physical damage? Would something like this (stacking defenders in squad to get 50% or higher) be a way to ignore his stomp?

[woeful anchor]

ed2 in is6 isnt obscure

u can definitely stumble upon it

[woeful anchor]

no because if u have 6+ units on field, he attacks more frequently

[sly harness]

It certainly helps a little, but it's not a complete solution

but on d6 the boss is not that big of a problem, only 3 x 920 phys damage

[surreal field]

Does Consiousness of Shu come with a guaranteed Decision node?

[woeful anchor]

it should

im not sure how its currently implimentend

cos in CN its only guranteed after the first update

where they renamed it from encounter to decision node

but in EN, we havent gotten the update yet and yostar chose to change it from encounter to decision already

[sly harness]

iirc it was already guaranteed after the node icon change

[sly harness]

It also was released on CN before the first expansion but the time window between those two things was shorter there

[woeful anchor]

oh mb then

💀

[agile barn]

is this highest dp?

[errant siren]

Yes

[surreal field]

Not necessarily, because supports, right?

[agile barn]

yea, just asking how it works

but its kinda ovbious when you get into a stage

[surreal field]

Actually, yea, it's highest DP because supports aren't on the right in IS

How would you guys prioritize nodes on later floors? Still Red > regular > non-combat? How do Face-off nodes fit in, for example?

[errant siren]

Low prio, they're fraud enough compared to IS5 one.

Harder to beat and lower rewards.

[sly harness]

I think post dlc1 you will be able to turn operators into candleholders with them

Rewards are good but ye they are harder to beat

[surreal field]

Are you guys talking about emergency nodes?

[sly harness]

Btw where are your saved vouchers?

About Face-Off

[errant siren]

Usually you still prio Emergency (as long as you can beat it), Normal Battles, anything else.

If you want to E2 someone, Pathfinder gets highest prio usually.

And Bosky is always best choice of pathing, if you still have to clear there something.

[surreal field]

I thought they were completely free, played like 10 of them and they were all trivial

Was that good RNG on mobs then?

[sly harness]

Ye we are talking about t3 (right most, "better" rewards)

[surreal field]

What do you mean? Like different variation of Face-off? Only got 1v1 and 2v2 so far

[sly harness]

t1 (left most) are easy to beat but mainly worth it if you are fishing for coins

[errant siren]

You have to select enemies to fight. Rightmost one has greater rewards, but usually it's worse to deal one.

[sly harness]

Nope, each face-off has 3 options (tiers) from left to right, each of the options has different pool of rewards

[surreal field]

Oooh, that's why!

Thought they had same rewards and just "pick your enemy"

[sly harness]

Generally for f4 you always want to cap you saved vouchers and go for pathfinder

So you need to path around it

In your case em -> normal -> pathfinder is the path to take (although I am not sure why you don't have any saved vouchers)

If you didn't rob the shop f1 you could also go encounter -> shop (rob) -> normal fight -> pathfinder

[surreal field]

That doesn't usually happen for me, I'm usually pathing to pathfinder node on each floor where it shows up, it's just that I had few vouchers and enough hope to get the units

[sly harness]

Although f4 shop rob is a bit hard

[surreal field]

Did rob the man

Tried the first squad and quit strategy on f1

[sly harness]

On f3 i would almost always prioritize Bosky over pathfinder

[surreal field]

You can't just tank the final boss, you need to win, right?

Also, will Face-off only deal like 2 damage if you lose, or is there anything specific going on with this node?

[static dragon]

you can just tank boss

[errant siren]

No damage.

But

[surreal field]

Oh, great!

[errant siren]

Nothing you will get lol.

Basically skip a node.

[static dragon]

face-off is free relic

if you get duck lord and his gang, it's even more free relic

[surreal field]

I mean, it's great to know that failing against mini-boss from previous event isn't going to finish the run

[static dragon]

those one is shit compared to the actual steam knight which painted darker

[errant siren]

And has Boss HP bar.

[static dragon]

the actual "threat" is the drone with it

[surreal field]

Yea, and I've got S3 on Raidian, so she's probably useless because they can only go under drone presumably

It'll obliterate UFOs, right?

[sly harness]

"free" is a way to put it . They are quite hard to kill without good collectibles/units who can cc Duck

[sly harness]

Raidian S3 should easily solve the right

[static dragon]

it's lucky if you get gopnik and fatty instead

[surreal field]

Ehmmm, yea...

[sly harness]

You can't get fatty in 2v2 in IS6

[surreal field]

UFO could probably 1v2

[static dragon]

unfortunately

[sly harness]

Duck + Bear is the only animal variant

[static dragon]

does the dog ever appear in 1v1?

crying thief

[sly harness]

It seems that no

Only Duck or Bear again

[static dragon]

fatty appears in 1v1

[static dragon]

i remember him appeared in is5 face-off

[sly harness]

Ye but IS5 has a different pool of enemies

[static dragon]

the dog is too much for 1v1 probably to be ever put

[sly harness]

He is in 1v1 in IS5

[static dragon]

oh right

he is ass

[surreal field]

Raidian S1 or S2 for ED2?

[sly harness]

Just time stun bomb or something

[sly harness]

S2

[errant siren]

Finally started S3M3...
Fucking bipolars...

🥹

[faint rampart]

is she good in any IS stages....

[errant siren]

Maybe VS Chong...

Cus she can do shit while zero Dodge and she has Shields to stay longer.

But I don't think she will survive much longer if he launch some arrows.

[surreal field]

Does ED2 boss have a lose timer like Dragon from ITW?

[errant siren]

Human form does not, but there's Dragon form, which I believe, has a Time's Up timer.

Oh you mean Sui Leg

Yes

10 minutes

Or take -50 BaseHP

[open finch]

She's cute..

[surreal field]

"Uses another special version of Sleepless that reduces the Life Points by 50 if not defeated in 10 minutes before despawning"

Oh, so you CAN just ignore the whole stage if you have sufficient HP?

[sly harness]

She can tank Qiu'lon with her shields

(cope solution)

[errant siren]

Yeah, you can leak IS Final Boss, if you have too much BaseHP.

And win that way.

[faint rampart]

[errant siren]

Lol.

The exception is Amiya

That does -9999 BaseHP.

[faint rampart]

thats what you like huh

[faint rampart]

~~now i can cope raising her, thanks lukas ~~

[open finch]

It's all your fault

Now we can't win ooc or wfu

Realmad

[gaunt bay]

i disagree

[surreal field]

Heard so much about how low rarity units are useful in IS but so far they served literally no purpose for me, as you seem to have enough hope to just recruit your 6 stars (because of pathfinder)

Could this be because Raidian fullfills every role low rarity units could have had?

[sinful sparrow]

why is bro "maid"

[errant siren]

https://tenor.com/view/noko-kanoko-anime-my-deer-friend-nokotan-shikanoko-nokonoko-koshitantan-gif-13144930434662220695

[slate hull]

in is6 that is pretty much true on lower difficulties, other is give you plenty of reasons to get lower rarity operators

[errant siren]

They actually most used as bait or additional/exceptional DPS.

When you don't have anyone but Kroos for example.

[gaunt bay]

when we use low rarity units its almost never because of damage output

[surreal field]

But can't fish (Raidian S2) bait AND deal damage?

[gaunt bay]

or to be a cheaper six star

you dont "replace" units with low rarity ones

youre using units that have their own niche

its all about utility

[errant siren]

Hope 0 bar:

[open finch]

What

I saw this banger panel

[gaunt bay]

why are you maid

[open finch]

So now I am maid

[surreal field]

Yea, but I'm talking about people saying things like Steward or Kroos being good for IS, and they are purely DPS, right?

[split void]

All kind of relics have the word "dodge" stack right ?

[faint rampart]

steward Archetto+gnosis

[sly harness]

They are good in IS2 and IS4 because they are free and sufficient to support your carry on f1-f3

You won't pick them in IS5 or IS6 because we have free 4* there (btw anything that isn't a 6* can be considered a low rarity in IS)

[steel relic]

Yes

[raw jewel]

not sure

[open finch]

Hard to say

[surreal field]

Does this have anything to do with ED3?

[remote badger]

lets just cuddle alltoghether

[surreal field]

I'm on D7 though, Raidian doesn't need D7ED3, right?

[remote badger]

she need ed3

in her conditions

but higher diff

[surreal field]

Also went through like 100 doubt nodes and this is the first time they show this board, is ED3 just VERY RNG to get?

[surreal field]

Yea, so no reason to go for ED3 right now it seems

[obsidian needle]

I would say that node is more common than Tavern

It'll only start showing after you beat ED2 that's why you haven't met it thus far

[surreal field]

Oooh, that's why!

[open finch]

We can cuddle in slay the spire 2

🤣

surely best relics on f5

[remote badger]

lol

[quick steppe]

lowk the clover cooks

bonus boss relic pick for ed2/4

[ripe summit]

IS3 experts. Do you guys have any tips. This fordartal doesn't make any sense to me just yet.

[quick steppe]

mix up somewhere in the sentence

[sly harness]

Foldartals are from IS4 not from IS3

[quick steppe]

either way we must look to master bait

[faint rampart]

wasnt master bait busy with purple balls in is4😢

[sly harness]

Generally drafting guide for IS4 was made by Alyssal

[raw jewel]

is there any effective ways to deal with the sui boss in ed2

[sly harness]

Exu alter

Great damage and shield that easily allows her to survive the stomps

[raw jewel]

i don't have

also

the biggest problem is that sui deals ridiculous damage

[faint rampart]

can borrow her

[open finch]

What did alyssal say with regards with is4

Draft tragodia exu and auto win?

[raw jewel]

maybe borrowing exusiai at the beginning is not bad

[astral sentinel]

Does is6 have those completion icons?

[rich thorn]

yes

all IS have completion marks, but only from IS4 they have diff look what depends on difficulty

[astral sentinel]

Right
I've never seen is6 icons tho

[rich thorn]

(IS6 marks are piss)

[astral sentinel]

Yellow you mean? Or just looking bad
Can't be worse than is5

[faint rampart]

what else would you borrow anyways

[astral sentinel]

I borrow flamebringer

[rich thorn]

🥀

[astral sentinel]

Wow

Bland

[rich thorn]

they tried to make it look like jade

[astral sentinel]

Lol

[rich thorn]

but diff between d11 and d12 are ass

same as low ones

[faint rampart]

known is6 best carry

[languid patio]

due to his HP Stacking?

[rich thorn]

also, on mobile its ass to see diff between em

at least IS5 and IS4 have clean difference between em

[languid patio]

but one sh is sure, I ain't seeing him being one of the best, he is a 5 star, so nope, not going to waste hope for a 5 stars, most of my hopes gone to 6

[astral sentinel]

On is5 it's kinda hard tbh

[rich thorn]

still better than is6

[astral sentinel]

Yeah

[faint rampart]

no

dont use him unless some weird reasons

[languid patio]

S1? S2?

oh ok

Ulpianus worth the hope more

[faint rampart]

uhh probably not

there are better guards for is6

[languid patio]

huh?

not even ulpianus?!

then sakiko??????? doubt

[sly harness]

Not updated yet, he is working on it

[faint rampart]

like 3rd option?

@gvg player answer:reallyMad:

[sly harness]

Leizi alter best guard for IS6 for now

Młynar is her significantly weaker replacement

Ente is very strong

Degen rather gvg only pick (3th best pick means nothing since you really will go past first 2 best picks)

Saki would be the next pick

And this is it when it comes to relevant 6* guards in IS6

[raw jewel]

ok but is tragodia raidian sakiko enough

for IS6

i have leizi too but have yet to upgrade her

[sly harness]

For ed1 yes

Tragodia does nothing in ed2 probably Sakiko can be a boss killer for ed2 but will need some help to survive on higher difficulties

Like Rose Salt + Waai Fu

[raw jewel]

welp

im so done

maybe i should reconsider my roster for IS6 as im going for other endings apart from ed1

[faint rampart]

exu borrow+raidian for ed2

for ed3....

[raw jewel]

silverash alter are you gonna say it

[faint rampart]

uh wha

[sly harness]

Built Leizi for ed3

[faint rampart]

ed3 feels pretty ez, idk who to say

[sly harness]

And borrow Exu again

[raw jewel]

oh alr

[sly harness]

ed3 is easy

[raw jewel]

exu alter start

also some ppl says that ed 3 is easier than ed2

but idk if the special battle required to go for ed3 is hard or not

[sly harness]

Kinda, it is very straightforward but a bit more of a stats check

[faint rampart]

ed3 pre req will be easy for you with leizi

[sly harness]

The special battle is simple if you draft characters who can solve it

[raw jewel]

oh ok then

ima need to unlock leizi's module

maybe go for lv 90 if needed

[faint rampart]

heard saki works for it too

[faint rampart]

rich

[raw jewel]

nah im not

i just feel like

getting ops that i often use to a certain high level

will take like

3 months idk?

or maybe not

'cause it took me a week

to get sakiko to lv 80

[topaz gazelle]

Can I knock up sentinel?

(with Angelina yk, for the damage buff with relic)

[languid patio]

ok

[empty perch]

In is3, how do I get the kings series collectibles? Is it nodes specific, buy from shop or reward from battle?

[raw jewel]

i think

uh

the sarkaz king collectible set is only available

within is5

[ripe summit]

Sorry bout that. I typed too fast

[quick steppe]

the kings set is in most IS series

its just that lamp isn't in most IS series

[ripe summit]

There's lamp on IS below IS5?

[earnest shuttle]

at this point I think im gonna reach max lv bp before beating talon run d14

[steel relic]

No

[quick steppe]

no its just lamp in is5
but the kings stuff exists outside of it

[sly harness]

Lamp is only available in IS5 and it is the only way to guarantee Kings collectibles. In other IS editions you can only randomly get them as drop from battles, encounters, shop

[loud rampart]

What is consolidated impressions in is6?

[steel relic]

Isn’t it the skill tree

[split void]

Hi Red

So like

What I have there is whenever my OP dodge, their atk +60% ?

And the dodge tongbao, some relic tongbao can even buff it futher?

[steel relic]

Yes

[wide rover]

Anyone know if I want ink of hidden butterfly?

[steel relic]

Do you want to do ending 2?

[wide rover]

Oh how hard is it?

Didn’t know it gives new ending

[steel relic]

Not very hard once you know what you’re doing in it but probably pretty hard if you don’t

[wide rover]

Ok

[rich thorn]

🥀

Rhodes gate is op

[faint rampart]

surtr

[uneven lintel]

True gvg

[rich thorn]

welp, thats 135

and still 15 hope to spare

just because abusing f1 Rhoder's Gate

[sly harness]

It isn't abuse if it doesn't look like this

[rich thorn]

at least i have more 6*

[sly harness]

At least my was d18 245t3

(but ironically this run wasn't even a highroll, no ASPD and the power level was slightly above Lamp)

[tired wyvern]

Yoo my first ever run without any healers whatsoever

Andi even did hard nodes like out of control too

I hope that's considered a good feat lmao

[faint rampart]

😢

no rights on non d15/18 as usual

[rich thorn]

just wait when relicless players come here

[faint rampart]

who are the good relic less players🤔 here

[sly harness]

Bait, the twink guy and the rest of the team that works on these IS3/IS4 relicless clears they post from time to rim

[tired wyvern]

I'm pretty sure I could do a relicless clear of IS3 at d7

But d7 is slop lol

[tired wyvern]

Also, technically there is no real relic less clear, cuz from d7 and above u get a relic that gives u negative effects from floor 3

[sly harness]

Relicless in the context of IS usually means no relicless that affects (buffs) combat power of operators (there are some extra rules)

[tired wyvern]

Wait, do the extra rules include those hope reducing and the operator promotion or the randomly recruit an alr promoted operator relic?

[rich thorn]

any relic what gives you advantages

[tired wyvern]

Oh alr

[sly harness]

I mean usually when we talk about relicless we refer to clears of single stages not the entire runs

[rich thorn]

what about uh, tongbaos and foldatars?

[sly harness]

Those types of clears have a specific ruleset

Getting extra Hope, Squad size ect. doesn't matter in them

[carmine token]

the lowest relic count u can go is 1 in is5

no way its 0

u could just not interpert the 2 lingerers from f2 propecy

[rich thorn]

em

d17 cursed relic

[carmine token]

urm dont play d17 or d18

[rich thorn]

but what if I just hate myself want to challenge myself

[carmine token]

then it wont be True relicless

u just gotta play bp doodle 😇

[tired wyvern]

Hmm

[tired wyvern]

Ah

[carmine token]

that already challenging enough

[tired wyvern]

U could delete them tho

[carmine token]

that too

[tired wyvern]

Hmm

[carmine token]

u have to play with 4* only + one 6* at e1

[tired wyvern]

Fuck.
That's gonna be so hard lmao

[carmine token]

shop will be the best node

[carmine token]

no, u could get safe house promo

[tired wyvern]

Yea lol.

[tired wyvern]

Promotions on d18 IS? On a 4star?

[earnest shuttle]

why e1 ?

[carmine token]

its d15 or d16 cuz d17 or d18 gives a relic

[carmine token]

no, u could get safe house promo

[tired wyvern]

Without healers or deployment limits and without relics we might as well me giving a baby a knife and asking it to kill patriot.

[tired wyvern]

Okay, d16 then

[carmine token]

u could get a healer from shop

[earnest shuttle]

Ahh yeah but is it like avoiding battle since relicless are tough so u cant promote through level up ?

[tired wyvern]

We should add no shop as a rule to make it impossible

🤣

[carmine token]

trag solo trust

[tired wyvern]

I mean u could do it that way and try to use scout or safe house.
But then u could only get a few operators leveled up tho

[tired wyvern]

Trag e1 does not solo d16 floor 3

[tired wyvern]

.

[carmine token]

just get e2 trough scout

[tired wyvern]

.

[carmine token]

no

[rich thorn]

nice theoretics

now clean that shit what you cooked

[tired wyvern]

U said only 1 e1 6 star

[rich thorn]

[carmine token]

if we are talking True relicless(0 relic) u could do battle

just dont take relics

[tired wyvern]

💀 relic less scout less and shop less.

Maybe u could e2 start wisadel or sm and then use safe house rng to level up

[tired wyvern]

Ye exactly

But better to skip to clear easier

[carmine token]

u cant u would probably need to start bp

[tired wyvern]

Yea, bp squad and safe house and the one e2 op might be our only privilage

[carmine token]

trag would do more then wis in my opinion

cuz psudo true dmg + parazis

[tired wyvern]

Maybe we should be able to use relics, but on only one operator that not wis or trag exia.
But the thing is, we can't use recruitment vouchers.

That would also be kind of interesting to do in IS3 or IS4

[tired wyvern]

And stall too

Alr me go sleep

Gn

[carmine token]

that would turn into normal relicless

-- recuitment

[tired wyvern]

-# Oh damn, guess it contradicts it self

[carmine token]

im talking about 0 relic clear(True relicless)

[tired wyvern]

Yea i get that.

Hmmmmmmmmmm

Alr me go sleep

Give me a maxed account (pots, modules, masteries, everything) then I can think about it

[surreal field]

How does it work with "extra block" relics, such as "operators on 8 surrounding tiles of blue box get +2 block"? Still no block?

[cold fjord]

liberators r hardcoded to have 0 block

[granite pumice]

Was looking for the Leisure node to test out "that" Broken yet stupid strategy, and... God forbid me from having fun😭(maybe because God is telling me to go sleep it's 3 am lol), and guess what... I got Shu, instead of Ling

[surreal field]

Heard Ling is like 7% chance

People said they lowered her chance as a response to infinite resources strategy or something, but somebody here surely knows more, maybe that's misinformation

[granite pumice]

Really.......

[granite pumice]

That's no fun

Aight then time to sleep...

[faint rampart]

[arctic panther]

[astral sentinel]

What do you guys think
Is this too much autism
I also have IS2 but it won't fit in one post anymore, 10 pics per post iirc

I don't even like IS

[crystal niche]

"i don't even like you" typa vibe but you spent half your life with this other person

[astral sentinel]

Yeah right
At this point it's a measurable chunk of life wasted

[sly harness]

I hope the IS4 and IS5 ones were done on d15+

[astral sentinel]

No but with mostly 5* squads

[ripe summit]

Seriously, you are either a day 1 Doctor or a Tsundere completionist

[astral sentinel]

Both

Month 1 though

[arctic panther]

do it all again at d18

[astral sentinel]

I'd die

i must be washed

cuz i dont remember ed2 is that

[arctic panther]

what do you remember ed2 collectible being then

[crystal niche]

idk

i usually do 234 so

my memory must be fuzzy

im returning to is 4 cuz some guy wanted me to play it

[quick steppe]

rookie mistake

[crystal niche]

well she is paying me

so i don't count it as one

[quick steppe]

nvm go get your hustle king

[carmine token]

now is6

[crystal niche]

nah wait for dlc 2

[lusty mesa]

which skill do ppl use

[gray pulsar]

s3

[lusty mesa]

thx

does ange need a team for IS or can she can work by herself

alsoo irene got is module right i bet shes also great with her

[inland elbow]

ange is very strong by herself

[quick steppe]

ange and weedy

[fickle jungle]

s3 and get her is mod if you are intending to use her

[split void]

Retreat Trago to save 4 ingot

[arctic panther]

how does that save ingots

[split void]

Cantible is hitting the thing

Just retreat her too

[tired wyvern]

Uhm, why are there two cats in the thumbnail

[mild coral]

Who are the other units youre meant to use with archetto sakiko?

[gaunt bay]

mon3tr

degenbrecher (s2)

[mild coral]

Mon3tr is s2 too?

[gusty siren]

Would Muelsyse be good for diff 9 IS6?

I find myself getting folded early on in stages if I can’t ramp up enough

[gaunt bay]

3

mon3tr s2 does nothing 🥀

[gusty siren]

Or would mon3tr be better

[mild coral]

Oh thought the plan was to gigabuff saki

[gaunt bay]

muel is not worth it

[gusty siren]

More trial and error with other squads ig

Also why are there no starter teams made for the supporter/defender and specialist/caster squads

Hypergrif when I catch you hypergrif

[gaunt bay]

general practice is to draft agents

[gusty siren]

The evil and devious cooldown:

[gaunt bay]

?

[sly harness]

Sup/Def can just start Raidian (if you are not banning her). If you ban her e1 Trag into e2 Hoshi to rob

Spec/Cast pre dlc was used with Mizuki start since he was able to shop rob f1

[gusty siren]

I wanna start with hoshi alter and radian for the free promotion on that squad

But no recruitment set for support/defender

Mfw I’m sitting here for several minutes trying the random squad for def/sup

[sly harness]

just start e1 (borrowed) Raidian + Humus + Purestream

Rob the shop

And use saved vouchers in pathfinder to get e2 Hoshi

[gusty siren]

Perhaps

Other ting I’ve been trying is always pulling a support 6* I don’t have, since I can always voucher the ones I do have (Hoshi alter, Exu Alter) but no luck so far

Maybe I shouldn’t do that lmao

[quick steppe]

10 hope to do nothing unfortunately not great

or rather she does things but not enough to be worth 10 hope

[crystal niche]

10 hope huh

9 hope supremacy

[sly harness]

7 Hope to recruit the 6* is a base cost

[gusty siren]

Agony

[crystal niche]

not to me

[gusty siren]

Which is why I want to use the sup/def squad to start with cheap e2 hoshi alter + radian

But rng is evil

[split void]

How to upgrade the bamboo ?

Like. What do I do in leisure

[crystal niche]

uh go in and probably pay a price?

[split void]

That one I got from Shu node in that leisure in the pic

[sly harness]

Gamble more

[split void]

That will stay Shu node right ?
And I need to pay 2 hope ?

Just out of hope there

[crystal niche]

does it stay the same?

[split void]

Idk. I have not re enter yet

Just want to ask before I waste another candle

[sly harness]

You can randomly get stacks for those collectibles when you gable. Realistically you won't be able to get higher without like Ling loop

Also since they only work for operators on piss tiles they are not that significant

[split void]

Oh oh. Upgrade mean get more stack right ?

[sly harness]

Yes

[split void]

Lol. I thought it was like change to something else

[split void]

I just burn 24 ingot in Nian node

Before realize i give 0 stack

[split void]

[sly harness]

Nian gives the +ATK one

I once used 200 Ingots to get only 3 stacks

[split void]

I guess only in their node right

[sly harness]

Once when I was lucky I got something like 3 stacks from around 50 Ingots

[sly harness]

Yes

The additional stack will be a reward for spending ingots and you will need to pick it up like the original collectible

[south token]

I'd lie if I tell I'm not bored with how I'm blatantly unable to finish a single IS run even in the most easiest ones as they're claimed to be

[quick steppe]

lowkey starting IS is tough

you often have to unlock a lot of stuff for the full experience

and can be a bit of a box check

but you’ll get there

[steel relic]

The easiest one is 5 and 5 is boring so this checks out

[sly harness]

[crystal niche]

guys

is is 4 ed 3 only possible to get on f3

[gaunt bay]

No

[crystal niche]

then why dont i see the prophecy

[open finch]

wat

oh

f5?

[crystal niche]

yes

[open finch]

bottommost prophecy is replaced with ed3

[crystal niche]

[open finch]

so you dont get to choose ed2

[crystal niche]

ohhhh

[crystal niche]

wait whatttt

[open finch]

sometimes you get two prophecies on one path so you can still choose ed2

[crystal niche]

so i cant do 234 this way?

[open finch]

you still can but in this case theres no double prophecy f5 so you cant

[crystal niche]

fuckk

[open finch]

this is kinda why ppl tend to take scout floor 2 or 3

[crystal niche]

run restart

[open finch]

but then scout isnt guaranteed f3

it's a topic that's been discussed to death lol

[crystal niche]

rawrrrr

[gaunt bay]

Kermimimi

[crystal niche]

i didnt know this

[gaunt bay]

Hai

[crystal niche]

i usually get it on f3

didnt know f5 was fucked

I'm gonna kiss them

I mean kill them!

[gaunt bay]

[faint rampart]

@/birb

[remote badger]

hi kermy

[muted skiff]

kermimi new draft for ed5 ?

[woeful anchor]

draft kermimi for theugry9

thoughts?

[remote badger]

wtf

[crystal niche]

what are bonus things u get if ur index 0

[quick steppe]

blindness

[gaunt bay]

you get Trapped in the White Walls 🤫

[sly harness]

You don't need to worry about going for different endings (you won't find them)

You don't need to worry about adjusting your squad to a given fight (because you don't know which fight it will be)

Generally you can restart the run

[crystal niche]

well then

let me just do 234 with this blind run

[thin finch]

Genuinely what do you do, when those fuckass aoe fire lanterns show up at the last stage of IS6

[sly harness]

Inferno?

Or ed1?

Kill them before they kill you

(in ed1) If you are using tragodia he can group them up in the middle

And then killing them will be easier since it will free the range tiles

[crystal niche]

kill them?

[faint rampart]

broken advice

[crystal niche]

truly a magnificent advice that transcends the limit of the mind

[late pecan]

So many options to kill them

[split void]

Getting Hoshi2

Suddenly feel like hoshi2 look kinda weird

[crystal niche]

wdym

this is the real one

[split void]

[gaunt bay]

Well

It’s hoshi

That’s for sure

[ember hemlock]

ceoballs my goat

[gray mason]

whats this

[errant siren]

End3 Exit

To angy Skadi

Say no more pizza for her cus she's fat

[gray mason]

oke tyy

[crystal geode]

how to beat IS6 ending 1 D1 easy, like no brain required type, i face trouble with those black and white explosion enemy thing

[sly harness]

Hoshi alter S2 + Haruka to tank the boss near the top of the map

[crystal geode]

Also assuming i dont have the hp to tank the right side..

[sly harness]

You can also use Tragodia + fast redeployment operator to perma stall the boss but this strat requires you to actually click stuff and you need to be a bit precise with it

The right side has different spawns of enemies

And most of them are not problematic

[crystal niche]

guys

is 134 possible

is 5

[sly harness]

No

[crystal niche]

so just 14

[sly harness]

For IS5:
f5: 1 or 2
f6: 3 or 4 or 5
f7: 5

[crystal geode]

my hoshi alter is only s7, should i master her s2 or s3, is s2m3 needed for this strat

[crystal niche]

[sly harness]

SL7 should be fine

[crystal niche]

i wanna beat quilon rawrrr

so hard

[crystal niche]

is ur haruka m3

[crystal geode]

yee

[crystal niche]

then u should be fine

[sly harness]

Also shouldn't be important

Her masteries gains are so ass

[crystal niche]

more important than hoshi m3 atleast

for this strategy

[crystal niche]

s3?

[sly harness]

ass

[crystal niche]

s3

so guys

tips to beat quilon?

[sly harness]

ass

Although SP here may be more useful

[crystal niche]

bruh sp and sactuary

[sly harness]

Get Lamp collectibles

[crystal niche]

[crystal niche]

other than that?

[sly harness]

And draft this

[crystal niche]

uh

why indigo and not click

[sly harness]

• agent Vanguard
• Mon3tr
• boss staller for map1 and map2
• lanholders for left and right in map1
• something to kill the boss in map2

Indigo binds the boss on map2

[crystal geode]

this?

[crystal niche]

why monst3r

[sly harness]

To kill the boss (and bout jump her so she is on the both maps)

[gaunt bay]

where kal smh

[crystal niche]

me no have monst3r

[sly harness]

Wis can be on bottom facing up, Trag also closer to the bottom. Haruka can be one down and facing up

Also the boss can path differently so wait for him to spawn

Or place Hoshi directly in front of the red box

[crystal niche]

what does quilon gain if i do not heal the orbs

[sly harness]

If you are not going for 245 you don't need to rob f4 so you can skip Kal

[sly harness]

Do you have Eyja alter?

[astral sentinel]

any idea what are probabilities for an IS shop to jam/stop withdrawal?

[errant siren]

Nah

[remote badger]

rng

[astral sentinel]

yes but rng is probability

Like what is the average amount of ingots I can deposit in 100 runs

[errant siren]

When you have big amount, it will broke at 1.
Like 100%

Because fuck you

[remote badger]

no numbers

[errant siren]

Probably the only pattern I learnt

[remote badger]

go datamine it yourself

[astral sentinel]

I bet someone have it

[remote badger]

no one

even station has none

[astral sentinel]

Then I bet someone at least have testing data, like ran lots of times and calculated probabilities

[remote badger]

no known ppl

go do it yourself

rng is never be the same on 2 clients

[astral sentinel]

huh

no way

[remote badger]

yes way

[terse creek]

is it better to recruit the same operator again for E2 or better to conserve the voucher?

[remote badger]

depends on the operator

[terse creek]

how about targodia

we only use his skill 2

[remote badger]

have u

checked the guides in the pins yet

[carmine token]

❌

[terse creek]

https://is-central.github.io/is6-sui/is6-progression/

I follow this guide for now

[terse creek]

we dont use his skill 2?

[carmine token]

his other skills are good too

[faint rampart]

what are the stages where his s3/s1 would be preferred

||haven't used him alot so no idea ||

[rich thorn]

S3 vs any enemy with camo/invis for example

if no stuff like ines

because cat lures em, enemy go into invis and just igore cat

[sly harness]

e2 allows him to trigger element burst on bosses in 1 cat (you can also do that if you scale his atk enough but you will need quite a bit of stats for that)

And this will generally be the most impactful thing in IS6

[rich thorn]

ah yes, and s3 cages can be triggered on undeployable tiles

but ofk, global cat bomb is easier to use

[carmine token]

s1 can be used for perma bind on a enemy

[sly harness]

S3 in ed2 (don't use him in ed2)

Also cages do some funny things with Sui

[rich thorn]

[eternal wadi]

idk whether rng just hates me or im legit ass in the game. how do i beat is6 ed3 on d10 😭 i always die on f5

[sly harness]

Start with e2 Raidian rob the shop and learn how to play f2 Bosky

[eternal wadi]

other than e2 raidian who do i get?

[rich thorn]

exu2

[errant siren]

Wisadel

[sly harness]

Leizi2/Hoshi2

If you can afford Haruka

You will only use 2 range units other than sustain in ed3 so don't overdraft them

[eternal wadi]

i see

[faint rampart]

no ines....so most normal runs :YA:

[faint rampart]

📝

[faint rampart]

:binoculars: do they work as bait or something

[crystal niche]

not me getting ines every run

[rich thorn]

dw, SA2 will come soon

[sly harness]

The count as a unit for speeding up his skill

And if I understand correctly what happened they bait him but he can't attack them or something like this

So he will just wait until they die and he can target something else

[faint rampart]

erm
after checking your previous drafts, i guess ines is pretty normal

[faint rampart]

so they can contribute for sui skill sp
+but dont work as bait just on their own

[covert escarp]

Chat best IS 5 operator to grind?

[remote badger]
