is-station

[vagrant tiger]

No S3 on Saki is annoying and will drag it out but Wis’s damage will help

Put down multiple fish so once the archer enrages, no one gets shot Immediately

[paper notch]

yeah no that squad has no damage outside raidian 😭

raidian s2 should almost be able to solo it most of the time

might need some help from relics

otherwise just wait till you e2 some of your other guys first

[faint rampart]

e2 raidian....the playlist

[paper notch]

how broken

now show me the clear for breakthrough ursus drone edition

[faint rampart]

nvm this guy is borrowing raidian for d1, so no prof :reallyMad:

[minor bone]

Hm..anyone understands the mechanic of ending4? I have to split my teams into 2 from what i understand, one that can do everything outside of the final boss and rest, that should be fighting the boss?

[paper notch]

i would never pretend

i literally just couldnt find it in the threads i found

im no pretender smh

[hardy totem]

Afternoon

I woke up to my cat sleeping at my feet uwu

[gaunt bay]

Hm

maybe I was too harsh on yato

[faint rampart]

i knew station was the off topic for elitists but wtf

[paper notch]

makes sense ig. i usually just have a melee unit to tank

[sly harness]

Tank

[cunning karma]

the main point of the vid is about how to kill bear but the frame trick is kinda cool too

[sly harness]

Like 4k Phys

[paper notch]

have you ever seen sankta miksaparato get 2 shot before

cuz i have

i meant more like bait but ye

[sly harness]

Wait for d18 and Sui 15k damage per 3 hits

Or ed5 with like 50k ATK

[paper notch]

yeah im a decent bit worried about dlc2 and d18

is6 is very accessible to welfare only (who would've guessed) as of right now

[paper notch]

🥹

at some point the stat just stops making sense

[gaunt bay]

you get to a point and you might as well consider it the ch11 cannibal

[hardy totem]

Which welfare units do you usually use?

[paper notch]

other than raidian, umiri is really good. crownslayer if i have hope to spare. kroos2 can help deal with a lot of enemies and scales well with relics. catherine for ed2. heavyrain for ed4.

i think those are the general drafts

mostly just focus on scaling and currently that's enough to steamroll the mode

[hardy totem]

I see

[paper notch]

im still working on more specific drafts but sometimes you kinda just rely on relics

[sly harness]

Any niche that has Raidian is relatively easy to play in IS6

For now at least

[paper notch]

yeah for now

[faint rampart]

💀

[gaunt bay]

holy fuck i got so trolled by reroll atk

[tired wyvern]

For floor 4 shop rob, is there a replacement for kaltst if I'm doin sniper medic for the top lane?

[potent gulch]

This medal req is so annoying

[gaunt bay]

Is this the part where i build hool

[sly harness]

Just 30 runs

[tall zephyr]

Guess what IS I skipped the most...

[potent gulch]

Can i like finish the region comm then abandon each run?

[sly harness]

Yes

[remote badger]

pins

[hallow vale]

Okk

Time to rail chongyue

[remote badger]

i need it 🥀

[tall zephyr]

Unfortunately during that time when IS 4 came out. I don't have the motivation to play IS4 due to focusing on Event Stages especially EX stages for medals. Especially some of the operators that haven't raised with my limited resources. But now, I don't think I could do IS4 just yet. I need to grind IS5 rewards which is much easier unlike other IS modes thanks to the blueprint sqaud. I am also planning to grind IS3 for rewards as well. As long as I have motivation to grind.

[remote badger]

check dms

[tall zephyr]

Oh and I got two endings in IS3 as well.

Ending 2 and Ending 3 respectively.

[hallow vale]

Is4 is quite trivialized by exualt, tragodia

[solar tree]

Literally the best IS player alive

[sinful sparrow]

didnt ask

[solar tree]

it's ok you didn't have to

[sly harness]

I think your screenshot is a bit blurry, I don't see the "5" behind the "1"

[cursive verge]

A feranmut ate it trust

[golden raven]

how can i e2 raidian?

[crystal niche]

pretty sure it says in the special operator training

[sly harness]

Clear d2 in IS6

[golden raven]

any ending?

[cursive verge]

Yes

[toxic hedge]

Cannot really sell a whole Vehicle for 12 ingots

[cursive verge]

Ed1 is the only one you should be doing rn anyways

[slate hull]

that is your own vehicle that he probably stole

[brazen bane]

Thats what we call creating supplies and demands all at once

[remote badger]

thats called economics

[tribal pulsar]

What does "can be upgrade in Plan" mean?

[crystal niche]

it means what it says, it can be upgraded in the plan node in the bosky

[tribal pulsar]

Got it

[sick mason]

Certain tongbaos/coins can be upgraded ye

[cunning karma]

yes, for example the 2000 def risk coin

[tribal pulsar]

Enya alter any good in IS6?

[rich thorn]

fun tongbao btw

[rich thorn]

ejya? nope

generic healer

[tribal pulsar]

Sorry, Prama alter

[rich thorn]

yeas, good

but from my view, needs e2 s2m3 and some sp regen

also, can fuck up foot

🚬

[tribal pulsar]

SODA

[rich thorn]

cuz you cant remove blue box freeze

[crystal niche]

how does enya = prama also pram alter alter

[tribal pulsar]

That's her name no?

Real name that is

[crystal niche]

true

[burnt lantern]

For sniper, how do you guys see narantuya among other such wis, lemuen, ray in IS6?

[crystal niche]

you can by removing prama

[rich thorn]

🫃

ofk you can

[tribal pulsar]

Wait, how tho

[rich thorn]

because targeting logic of foot

[crystal niche]

[rich thorn]

so if you place her near blue box, and freeze it

[crystal niche]

naran is better than lem and ray tbh in is 6

[rich thorn]

foot will target pram

[tribal pulsar]

Does it have high aggro?

[rich thorn]

[tribal pulsar]

oh

Just get another densely crowd

[tribal pulsar]

Because S3?

[civic tinsel]

Oh wow this is tough

[crystal niche]

because she can hit more than one enemy

[civic tinsel]

I really need to think this carefully

[crystal niche]

hmmm

i say pick the left

[civic tinsel]

you might be onto something

[crystal niche]

do you have sa2?

if yes then that's a goated pull

also

haruka isn't yan wtf???

[civic tinsel]

Only E2lvl1 with S2M2

I dont think I’ve encountered any Vanguard vouchers

[rich thorn]

its fine

[rich thorn]

🥹

[crystal niche]

bruh like why

[rich thorn]

same

5 runs with him

and all with e1 on f5

cuz no vouchers

[crystal niche]

ngl either you get too many vg vouchers or none at all

[rich thorn]

true

[burnt lantern]

During her E1, which skill we prefer?

[crystal niche]

idk i don't use her

I got her once on temp

[civic tinsel]

So…what skills should I use for Gnosis in IS

Seen a lot of ppl go S2

[burnt lantern]

Lol.. yea, ive been running the same team for IS6 up to d15, with very minimum variation depends on the ending.

Wanted to try different strats / team

[rich thorn]

s2 is spammable

s3 is nuke actually

[sly harness]

Mainly about range

[sly harness]

If you want to play something different play class squads with Raidian ban and different 2 op in class cors for f2 Bosky

[faint rampart]

~~play non class bans for ultimate variation ~~

[civic tinsel]

bruh

[sly harness]

Like this?

Nah this is n*che gameplay

[civic tinsel]

Got everything except an actually decent vanguard

thank you HG

[faint rampart]

sorry i didn't type it correctly...no class squads with bans

[errant siren]

But hey

You have a roach

[burnt lantern]

This is sick! Id love to try it

[errant siren]

[civic tinsel]

thank you for letting me continue using my E1 beanstalk

[tidal raptor]

Can two endings clash together? Like I got the caerula relic but now I have an offer from the knight?

[remote badger]

yes

however there are exceptions

[crystal niche]

usually ed1 and ed2 = f5, ed3 and ed4 =f6, and ed5 = f6 orf7

[tidal raptor]

I’m sorry I didn’t get that

[crystal niche]

what did u not get

[sly harness]

*ed5 = f6 or f7

[tidal raptor]

What does ed1 mean? Ending?

[remote badger]

like if u want to do ed3 and ed4

[crystal niche]

yes

[remote badger]

but u can get 1

[tidal raptor]

So I’ll still go to floor 6 but I’ll only get 1 ending?

[remote badger]

2 endings

but the winscreen only count 1

which in particular the last one

[tidal raptor]

Ohhh I get it now

[remote badger]

1 and 3 so winscreen u get 3

[tidal raptor]

Nice! I’ll just decline the knight then. Thanks for the help!

[remote badger]

doing stuffs like 245 in is5 or 235 in is6 is kind of a flex

if u show them the relics

[tidal raptor]

One day when I get better at is

[tired wyvern]

Anyone here know tin mans best skill?

[crystal niche]

[tired wyvern]

[rich thorn]

spearbro wobbled, and just runned full speed down

[paper notch]

oh that part

deep investigation

prolly

[rich thorn]

dont think its because of that

cuz he lagged like crazy

[paper notch]

is it deep investigation?

[rich thorn]

with changind direction

yes

[paper notch]

yes

this is known effect of giving them 3 billion speed

[rich thorn]

idk what could do that anyways

[paper notch]

is ok everyone has to go through this experience at some point 😭

[rich thorn]

https://www.krooster.com/u/banji

[solar tree]

buh???

[crystal niche]

s1 with dream curio

[paper notch]

some people recommended hoolheyak for caster voucher 👍

it appears that caster voucher is so ass that we've regressed to peak

[faint rampart]

does pram2 do things for endings like hool

[brazen bane]

Wdym by that

[rich thorn]

nah dont think so

[hardy totem]

Going for ending 3 in IS6. Is there pathfinder node on floor 6?

[rich thorn]

yes

[faint rampart]

like how hool is supposed to kill ed4 and 5, i heard

or atleast dps it...

[hardy totem]

Danke

[paper notch]

3 tornados = x3 dps or so i've been told

[rich thorn]

hool can target multiple bodies parts

[faint rampart]

yeah
so does pram2 contribute anything to eds

[rich thorn]

cuz each tornado is dmg instance

pram2 is just caster

with good dmg and cc

[faint rampart]

🥹

[crystal niche]

and true aoe

wow dream curio with sash2 s2 can perma freeze with a bit of vg sp plus

im not aware of that being the case

[crystal niche]

It's prob there at the edge

[tulip narwhal]

I need some advice for beating ed4 and these are operators i have

[crystal niche]

what is the lightning dmg for candle lit

true dmg? or arts

[tulip narwhal]

I don't know maybe arts

[crystal niche]

o yea it's arts

[sly harness]

In pathfinder? All

[cunning karma]

It's in the stage description

[sturdy jay]

IS4 Diff 6+ adds a +1 Hope cost for recruitment? Does that mean I'm forced to start a run without a 6 star operator?

[tulip narwhal]

Just pick raidian

[remote badger]

its not is6

[sturdy jay]

It's is4

[static dragon]

just pick +1 hope start or kettle

i forgot if is4 class squad has -2 hope cost for related class

[dim mirage]

which one of these would be good in is

[gaunt bay]

cantabile

[crystal niche]

for raidian "killing" yi, she only needs to do the last hit on phase 2 right

[brittle violet]

looking for opinions on what lane to take, Im considering Path finder then to emergency, emergency then to pathfinder or pathfinder to rogue trader

[gaunt bay]

yea

[grim portal]

Yes

[gaunt bay]

id personally take trader there

[grim portal]

Ops ops trade path

[sinful sparrow]

2 normal -> emer -> pf -> vertical trader

[grim portal]

Or ops emergency path trade (possibly more loot)

[crystal niche]

have you not gone to bosky at all?

[brittle violet]

Am i fucked or not?

[grim portal]

[sly harness]

Amiya caster btw

[grim portal]

Wait lol wrong nodes

[tired wyvern]

[grim portal]

Should be wonderland

[brittle violet]

theres wonderland at the end

[tired wyvern]

Okay, can the team do the theresis boss?

[brittle violet]

I went to it twice

this is 4th floor

[tired wyvern]

Was using medic for spines

[grim portal]

Are you on specific ending run? Or ed1 just fine?

[brittle violet]

Im at diff 1, any ending will do

just started is6 yesterday

[crystal niche]

the sui conciousness

[grim portal]

Ah just take operation > emergency > pathfinder > rouge trade

[brittle violet]

kk thanks

[grim portal]

Should be giving you more exp

[tulip narwhal]

I did it

Thanks guys

[crystal niche]

don't you have logos?

[tired wyvern]

I recruited pram2.
This was more of a test run to see how narantuya and pram would work in IS5, and they are broken

And for some reason I decided to do ed2

Even tho I had escape crane for ed1

[grim portal]

Which narantuya skill do you use?

[tired wyvern]

Lmfao

[tired wyvern]

3

[grim portal]

Ah dang, didnt build her that far yet

[brittle violet]

how good is pram alter for IS?

[tired wyvern]

Lol

[tired wyvern]

In my experience this run she's goated

[sly harness]

Ik but for ed2 take Caster

[tired wyvern]

Okay, can my team win?

[grim portal]

Pram alter is great and is5 and 6 imo

[sly harness]

Borrow p6 m9

[grim portal]

But is6 is easier to start with tragodia or raidian for me

[sly harness]

That is how you play soul Escort

[tired wyvern]

Kay

[sly harness]

Ofc

[tired wyvern]

Mhmm

[tired wyvern]

Okay, imma try it after eating sm lol

[crystal niche]

how does starting with trag in is6 work I always either do raidian or exu

[tired wyvern]

Samee

[brittle violet]

Am I going to struggle with ed1 boss when all I have are ranged units

[sly harness]

No

[grim portal]

Exu might be a problem if you dont have healer early, and the mobs takes time too spawn befcause you're killing them too fast

[crystal niche]

no cuz u have trag but you might wanna get a defender

[sly harness]

(I mean you probably will but you shouldn't)

[brittle violet]

i can pick up shu down the line

[sly harness]

[grim portal]

Pick tank

Need someone to stall Yi at least

[brittle violet]

should I bother trying ed 2?

[crystal niche]

no

[grim portal]

Nah just farm exp first

[brittle violet]

[grim portal]

Unless you are a hardcore player

I have never even gone to f6 after dlc1 so idk what's in there

do yall recc tianshi flower or shadow squad

[grim portal]

The one that give extra recruit slot(?)

[prime mountain]

Shadow squad just rng your way to victory its so fun!

(not optimal, but fun)

[crystal niche]

i don't get shadow, so i basically just have one of the other squads as a random effect?

so like it's just flower but as shadow squad if i roll that?

[prime mountain]

its a random list, one sec

Bad chinese tl lemme check if wiki is updated

can mon3tr s3 true dmg kill the apparition instantly?

[prime mountain]

Which apparition are you talking about? thats an entire range of enemies

If you mean talismans, no. they are hitcount.

True damage does not counter hitcount

Hit count most likely

[prime mountain]

Oh did you roll one of the shitty f6 maps

[sly harness]

His f6 fights are easy

[tired wyvern]

Kinda

[tired wyvern]

Yea but wrong placements

Also narantuya and pram2 work well against theresis

[prime mountain]

no true damage = negative damage

[tired wyvern]

Still, it gives us enough time to wisadel our way through

Plus, if I didn't have extra pram dmg would have lost

Theres only a few things a man without monster or kal can do

[prime mountain]

If you have mon3tr you can just use her

she kinda soloes p2

[tired wyvern]

Yea ik

[sly harness]

Amiya is good enough

Especially without Boats

Btw this is the placement

[remote badger]

harmless

[gaunt bay]

She is in so much pain furrilo

Put her out of her misery

[prime mountain]

Dont care, didnt ask, take a million attacks to the face

[pseudo burrow]

what recruitment set should I start with in IS6? playing for first time. only done endings in IS2 before

[past garden]

Ugh, I freaking full cleared this but didn't see a SINGLE GUARD RECRUIT until right before the final boss and Chong died before he could skill 20 times. So lame

[prime mountain]

How do you go an entire run without seing a guard voucher

did bro just skip every fight

[crystal niche]

did bro not rob shop or reset shop multiple times

[rich thorn]

same as no vanguard vouchers till f5 end

[prime mountain]

E0 unit btw

so it never happened

[gaunt bay]

Pregnant highroller

[solar tree]

is this for an ending or smth?

[nocturne cape]

ending 2

[prime mountain]

This is deadass average support squad run

ed4 is so stupid

[solar tree]

is it harder than ed1?

[nocturne cape]

yes

[prime mountain]

It gives one of your units 0 dp cost!!!!

Huge buff

[cunning karma]

take it and send some feet pics

[solar tree]

what

[prime mountain]

The boss is a giant dragon but you only fight its feet cause it stomps you

Stir fry right after clearing bosky obviously

[rich thorn]

and sedan

[prime mountain]

Why cant I get these earlier...

[rich thorn]

🫃

[prime mountain]

Only 86 relics what a lowroll

[grim portal]

Buy end of times and all the relics, refresh shop and battle cannot

[prime mountain]

[prime mountain]

Draft order is whoever you get first

[raw vault]

who's the starter then

radian?

[rich thorn]

either gnossy or sa2

if only kjerr

[prime mountain]

Can you do raidian sa2? is there a squad that allows that idr

Well special squad duh

but like support squad

[rich thorn]

pram is good but 🫃

no sp

[raw vault]

no need for puritan runs

so gnosis E2 start?

or sash2 start with gvg

[grim portal]

Pram early is possible but most of the time i bring gummy to stall while waiting pram to charge

[prime mountain]

Pram looks like more of a reactive pick if you get good caster relics tbh

Or if you have 0 hitcount

[grim portal]

Relic that gives SPs on deployment really help tho

[rich thorn]

or that bucket

[prime mountain]

+2sp on dealing damage relic with pram goes so hard

how broken is snow

[grim portal]

Her s2 SP wont reduce after activated right?

[prime mountain]

Her s2 is infinite

wdym

[grim portal]

So early SPs on deployment is enough

No no, just confirming something

[rich thorn]

damn, it was a miracle

forgot to take coffin on shop, took it on f4, then rolled scout tongabo

and somehow jumped into last moment into scout

[prime mountain]

That was entirely calculated dude you totally meant to do that

[rich thorn]

and didnt died on foot

with low roll relics

funnies part, what 6* temp tongbao gave shu and leizi2

we fucking do it

[prime mountain]

Temp leizi temp shu what the fuck

[rich thorn]

horn too

[prime mountain]

Put sa on s1 btw, regular one

for gnosis synergy

[rich thorn]

s3 have synergy too btw

via more dmg from fragile

on cold

[prime mountain]

?

Brother

silverash s1 will perma stall anyone in his range

why do you need more damage than the +100% fragile that gnosis has

Im talking regular silverash here

[solar tree]

hi how stupid am I playing this

[prime mountain]

Quite low relic count, someone doesnt know how to maximise bosky performance

[solar tree]

[prime mountain]

What is that bottom path

[brazen bane]

lol

[solar tree]

how do you dos

?

[quick steppe]

don’t run from turmoils

[prime mountain]

You see things like this? always be able to take top option

Do all turmoils

kill the minibosses in said turmoils

[rich thorn]

it was ass

gnosis and exu2 placement was due to panic

[prime mountain]

Why is gnosis on the left

[rich thorn]

[prime mountain]

ok

Why is pram not on the middle tile right side

[rich thorn]

cuz she nuke both statuegists?

[solar tree]

I don't think I even have 4 usable yan ops lowkey

[rich thorn]

[prime mountain]

Does she even reach on s2...

[rich thorn]

yes

[prime mountain]

Dont need to be usable

[sly harness]

Just get

[prime mountain]

just draft e0 windscoot or something

[rich thorn]

@prime mountain

[sinful sparrow]

hoshi exu windscoot purestream
the four horsemen of 2-relic-doubts

[solar tree]

is this the raidan + purestream + windscoot angle

[prime mountain]

Oh idk why I tought they were one tile up

[solar tree]

[sinful sparrow]

i'm more of a sussuro kinda gal 💅

you will take your f2 tribulation fight and you will like it

[sly harness]

Let my artistic skills safe you

[prime mountain]

wow so peak

[rich thorn]

iknow pathing

🫃

[sly harness]

[rich thorn]

its just, placement of gnosis and pram2 is problematic for me

[sly harness]

I heard prama S1 is s pick

[rich thorn]

not to nuke statuegists and nuke cars on right side

but fuck

[sly harness]

S1 trust

You will cc stuff

[rich thorn]

I almost did myself .gif

[sly harness]

They have 0 weight

[prime mountain]

Oh yeah pram s1

broken skill

[sly harness]

Play it like no feed

[solar tree]

does IS-6 change alot based on the difficulty you choose?

or is it roughly the same?

[prime mountain]

The maps dont change

its mostly numbers

[sinful sparrow]

less asking more playing

[solar tree]

well ya but like do the stage clears change because of it?

[quick steppe]

only real changes are +1 reroll cost and +1 hope

[sinful sparrow]

and mango needs to help me with this tianshi guide :realmad:

[quick steppe]

that’s about it tbh

[solar tree]

explodes you with my mind

https://tenor.com/view/explosion-cat-gif-5858640239144030160

you go BOOM

[quick steppe]

😭

I gotchu today surely

[sly harness]

Of you are playing optimally already they won't change much

[sinful sparrow]

bro is gonna dip again 🥀

[quick steppe]

anything I can do rn…

[sly harness]

Raidian still solos most of them

[errant siren]

Enemies may be tankier and oneshoting your ops much more confident as usual.

At some point, you will end up with... bolder approach that works every time.

[sinful sparrow]

stage clears can change if you're playing d18

[prime mountain]

Nuh uh d18 isnt real

[sinful sparrow]

cuz it essentially alters every hallway fight from f4 onwards

[sly harness]

d18 isn't real yet

[solar tree]

wbt d15?

[sinful sparrow]

but also it doesnt change because if you havent scaled enough on the first 3 floor to mindlessly clear it

you're slop and your run is gone anyways

🫃

[solar tree]

🎨

[earnest shuttle]

get a chinese passport and play d18

[sly harness]

Spoken from experience

[sinful sparrow]

allat effort to eat shit on ed5 pre-req

[prime mountain]

Seing avenger in shop is just so wrong icl

[sinful sparrow]

(or ed2)

[prime mountain]

Also damn this is mpreg

[sinful sparrow]

its true

mfw 60 relic f3 and then
n0 bell stirfry coin machine

wtf am i doing here

i might as well be playing relicless

[quick steppe]

low relic clear

[sinful sparrow]

bro pls dont tell me about the low relic clear

[earnest shuttle]

dafuq, no stirfry/drums equals death in ed5 ?!

[solar tree]

btw what's the best starting squad for this IS?

[sinful sparrow]

some guy ragebaited the community with a 48 relic ed5 t3 run

and then its all old fan tier

[solar tree]

I've just been playing with highground breaching for a while now

[sinful sparrow]

:ICANT:

[sly harness]

Stir fry is giga mid because you won't play ed4

[sinful sparrow]

i mean its sorta like is5 ingots talons yes?

[sly harness]

Very weak squad

[sinful sparrow]

you're actively sieving relics to find aspd

in is6 you're sieving relics for the bell and the drum

[sinful sparrow]

me personally i rather pla 245t3 with ed3 debuff

235t3 doesnt look fun

smile

[sly harness]

You can use this as some reference for good squads

[timber token]

For IS6 ed3, which medic defender should i pick?

[solar tree]

bwa?

[sinful sparrow]

(you will explode like 70% of the time if you dont find drum or bell, god bless stat bloat)

[timber token]

Or just bring gummy like in here?

[prime mountain]

If you draft shu instead of saria you summon an angry youtuber

[sly harness]

@solar tree

[sinful sparrow]

anyways i will now proceed to play a run of dlc2 and then fall asleep half-way into ed2 death

cya

🏃‍♂️

[timber token]

I uh... Dont know what's that suppose to do with my run

[prime mountain]

There was a whole thing with shu or saria best draft in ed3

[sly harness]

No

[sinful sparrow]

lol sciel

kinda funny

[solar tree]

Def/Sup and Special
which one is the second refering to here?

[sly harness]

This was just a theory crafting

[timber token]

Who should i pick then?

[sly harness]

It is the name of the Squad

[sinful sparrow]

the squad's name is literally "special squad"

???

[solar tree]

oh special squad

[sly harness]

Hoshi2

[solar tree]

[sinful sparrow]

if you aren't drafting hoshi2 in is6

what are you doing

[timber token]

She would be E1 cuz i only have 1 tix

Or just get gummy like this guide?

[sly harness]

What is your draft

[timber token]

Draft?

[cursive verge]

Is logos even good for ed3 or is that just a placebolder sample

[sly harness]

What other units you have right now

(only candleguests matter right now)

You are on f6?

[timber token]

Yes

[prime mountain]

Xhingzhu solo healer I believe

[timber token]

Who

[prime mountain]

Just get -40% sp coin and spam s1!!!

[cursive verge]

Purestream asw in the corner

[sly harness]

You can draft Saria S2 place her to the left or right of purestream

You don't need to block the boss

Or use fishes

[timber token]

Got it

[sly harness]

Saki will one shot him

Trust

[timber token]

Fishes?

[sly harness]

And only e1 Purestream may be uncomfortable as a healer

[sly harness]

Raidian

[timber token]

Where i put saki in here?

[sly harness]

It can be the Gummy tile

[timber token]

So saria on either F10 or D9?

[sly harness]

E8 E10

To cover everything with heals

[timber token]

Got ot

What to buy here?

No i don't want to risk rob him

[tidal raptor]

bruh my entire squad has hemostatic inhibition in is3 (constant health drain), im still in floor 3 and i dont have a healer. Should i call it quits?

[prime mountain]

It doesnt kill them, only brings them down to 1 hp yeah?

Just dont block enemies

[tidal raptor]

yeah, but im worried about ranged guys

[prime mountain]

Its is3 there are no ranged enemies

[tidal raptor]

yeah there is

ice field hunters

the crabs

acid slugs

[sly harness]

But they only start loosing hp if something hits them first

[solar tree]

what

[sly harness]

Easy

[sly harness]

[prime mountain]

They're all trivial just kill them first smh

[timber token]

I beg to differ

[sly harness]

You should play more IS3

[tidal raptor]

so camp incursion point?

[timber token]

Anyways

[prime mountain]

No

[sly harness]

YES

[tidal raptor]

ok ill try

[prime mountain]

Wait do the spinners hit enemies on the tile accross the blue box?

I may have just skill issue'd a candle

[timber token]

Btw between E1 haruka and e1 puresrream which one is better as the healer?

[sly harness]

No

[prime mountain]

Oh

for fuck sake

WHY DID IT DEFAULT EQUIP RAIDIAN MOD2

AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH GAME

[tidal raptor]

i got destroyed by the ursus guys that get stronger under half health

[prime mountain]

Just exu2 face up and kill them before they do anything 👍

If its f3 stage we talking about

[tidal raptor]

gotcha. ill keep that in mind for my next run

[timber token]

Still waiting...

[rich thorn]

and another one fall into mod B scam

it was spinner stage ye?

[prime mountain]

Yep...

[rich thorn]

bro

[prime mountain]

Why does it auto equip

[sly harness]

Because you have set it as default

[prime mountain]

No like I just unlocked it

and it auto swapped to it

[rich thorn]

it set mod b by default

upon unlock

[prime mountain]

Yeah why does it do that 😭

[cunning karma]

[timber token]

A little help here?

[timber token]

And here

[sly harness]

Only now?

dlc1 is like a month old

[prime mountain]

I never used raidian, practicing for the monthly tournament rn

[sly harness]

Oh

Good player

[prime mountain]

👍

[sly harness]

Raidian ban gameplay

[timber token]

Anybody?

[rich thorn]

haruka

[sly harness]

Your Haruka isn't a candleguest

You can't take her into ed3

[timber token]

My bad i didn't see it

[timber token]

What about this

[rich thorn]

holy shop rob

[timber token]

I don't want to risk losing here

[rich thorn]

BUT NO IGNOTS

[timber token]

You have 10

[sly harness]

Potential Cocoon

[timber token]

Between buffing raidian summons or +5 dp early, what should i pick?

[rich thorn]

cocoon my ass yeye, f6 rob before boss

[sly harness]

You also had Coupons to retoss it 🥀

You are not winning the ISC tournament like that

[timber token]

I'm not participating it

[rich thorn]

im playing for fun ok

[vital wedge]

can’t relate
also just noticed if you give raidian’s fish turrets aspd they also spin faster

[sly harness]

Winning is fun

[timber token]

Any suggestions?

[sly harness]

The SP is cooked by ed3 debuff anyway

It will be like +3,5 SP effectively

[timber token]

So buff Raidian summons

[sly harness]

Ye looks good

[rich thorn]

weird run btw

yep, leizi2 35k on hit

lowrolled as hell

🥀

[tired wyvern]

Which one leads to a new ending?

I alr set up theresis

[rich thorn]

box is ed3 patrick
petal ed4 quillon

[quick steppe]

do petal tbh

245 dalao

[tired wyvern]

Which one is harder?

[rich thorn]

petal

[tired wyvern]

Ohkay

Petal it is

[rich thorn]

after that, need to go into face-off

[sly harness]

idk but petal is the only one I play

[rich thorn]

and use 2 plans there

[tired wyvern]

After Petal I need to go to faceoff

[sly harness]

Yes

[tired wyvern]

Also, after I'm done with face off I need to one more possibility node for another ending??

[sly harness]

1 if you have the skill tree upgrade

[tired wyvern]

Oh lmao

[tired wyvern]

My skill tree is maxed

[sly harness]

No. Encounter for ed5

[tired wyvern]

Which encounter?

[sly harness]

You can't take both lost and found endings at once

[tired wyvern]

Wait wait,

Theresis ending
Then quilon ending

How to get the other ending in the same run?

[quick steppe]

3 and 4 can't be together

but you can add 5

[tired wyvern]

Yea how do I get 5?

What do I do to get 5?

[quick steppe]

encounter nodes

[tired wyvern]

Which encounter do i need to find?

[timber token]

What skill logod used here? S1 or 3?

[quick steppe]

find the cadence encounter(amiya and nymph) and then kill the thing

and then 2nd encounter after to turn the thought into an egg

[tired wyvern]

Can I find on floor5?

[tired wyvern]

Oh alr

Kay imma go see if I can find it

[sly harness]

My internet sucks

[tired wyvern]

Oh alr

[timber token]

.

[sly harness]

[tired wyvern]

Oo alright thx

Just read it

[tired wyvern]

Bruh

I got lucky

Encounter had final candence

And then leads into a face of node

Perfect

Also will this change theresis boss if I take?

[timber token]

.

[quick steppe]

rolling makes ed2 into ed2a

[sly harness]

Yes

[quick steppe]

no face off yet 💀

[sly harness]

Go for 2af4f5t3f

[timber token]

For ED3 boss, what's skill better for logos? 1 or 3?

I'm starting to lose myself

[sly harness]

S3, you almost always use it. The only use case for S1 is IS5 ed2

[timber token]

Got it

[tired wyvern]

@sly harness
The thing made it so that two chariots of sort took away my wisadel and narantuya 😭

Their cooldown stayed the same??

Why did that happen?

The cooldown didn't even reduce

[sly harness]

Face Off fight or ed2?

[tired wyvern]

Ed2

During ed2 fight

[sly harness]

Generally those boats are ed4 mechanic

[timber token]

Keep SAalter or replace him with the 2nd agent for fast redeploys?

[quick steppe]

bro got boated

🥀

[sly harness]

If they run over someone they insta kill them and load up to 3 ops

[tired wyvern]

Yea, I think it's cuz I took the node in floor 5 I didn't have enough time to kill

[timber token]

Boat goes binted

[tired wyvern]

Holy fuck

[tired wyvern]

😭

[sly harness]

If they enter blue box ops stay undeployable

You need to avoid them

[tired wyvern]

Yea I think I read that, I thought i killed them in the face off

[tired wyvern]

Damn, I can't just kill them then?

[sly harness]

You kill them in Face-Off to get ed4

[tired wyvern]

And till ed4 they keep appearing huh

[sly harness]

And then they spawn in ed1/ed2 to make the fight harder

[tired wyvern]

I also got the ed5 thingy

[sly harness]

Then you use them in ed4 as a gimmick to transport some units for the last phase of the boss fight

[iron orchid]

erm

[sly harness]

They also spawn in ed5 if you take the hardest variant, they are there only to annoy you again

[tired wyvern]

Yea, MUCH harder, I didn't even get any healer vouchers, wouldn't hv thought it was a problem before cuz I had kings relics and wisadel and narantuya both had hands relics

[tired wyvern]

So u need to let them get in the boat

[sly harness]

Rolling Ancestor was the bigger problem

[tired wyvern]

Holy shit

[tired wyvern]

Hmm

[muted jewel]

i fucking hate sui IS because vagary tiles mechanic sucks fat dick

[quick steppe]

:handmixer:

[sly harness]

ed4 normally will add only boats to normal ed2

[timber token]

No need to be that harsh there

[quick steppe]

me when my first tongbao reward isn't between stove alight and cocoon

[tired wyvern]

Back when i was grinding ed1 i though IS5 was easy 😭

[sly harness]

Rolling Ancestors changes ed2 completely

[tired wyvern]

It's actually more fun harder and addictive now

[timber token]

Anyways

[tired wyvern]

Mhm, so I should have prolly done it on a lower floor

[sly harness]

Imo the hardest high end IS

[tired wyvern]

Tried to scramble everything on floor 5 lol

[muted jewel]

also the coin toss mechanic is just as worse as mizuki IS

[tired wyvern]

I'm still on d13, can imagine how much fun d18 is

[timber token]

Dice is far worse IMO

[quick steppe]

is5 trivialized by trees unfortunately

[timber token]

Spoken from DnD player

[quick steppe]

just dont ask where my medal is

🥀

[muted jewel]

Fear and hunger has less punishing fucking coin tosses than sui IS

[tired wyvern]

LMFAO

I don't have any medals 😭

I mean, I have 9

Need 2 mlre

Tin man runs and sm elss

[inland elbow]

Idk, it has a lot more highroll nonsense

[tired wyvern]

But fucking hell i died to boats 😭

[timber token]

IS6 is the first is i got full set medals

Anyways

[inland elbow]

The only reason it maintains a semblance of difficulty is because we put restrictions on ourselves

Like not withdrawing 20 every shop and using wis

[muted jewel]

ok question question

Does lapplan alter S3 get affected by this?

[tired wyvern]

I wouldn't use wis if I had other operators to play with lmfao

[inland elbow]

No

[timber token]

I don't think it counts as summons

[muted jewel]

yeah thats why im asking since S3 says
"special drones"
and since arknights is sometimes spaghetti I would've been surprised if those were summons

[timber token]

Summons in AK is specifically those tou jeed to deploy first

[timber token]

Yeah I'm starting to losing it, anyone??

[muted jewel]

-# ah shit this would make silverash alter S2 useless

[boreal shore]

No

[sly harness]

Idk I am mainly playing from the personal experience when I am still far from being consistent and it even though I played quite a bit of it. Also trying to push for Fractured clears, Rolling Ancestors or t3 adds a lot to the difficulty ceiling

[muted jewel]

eye of blizzard is a summon

[paper notch]

is it?

[nocturne cape]

i doubt

[boreal shore]

Do you actually have to deploy s3 lappland alter tho

[paper notch]

i doubt as well

[sly harness]

Like ban-less IS3 imo is much easier then IS5

[inland elbow]

ok now withdraw 20 every shop and play shop squad

[nocturne cape]

what if i still lose

[sly harness]

No-one is doing that

[inland elbow]

but I do think that what's happening is that in is5 we play with a ton of restrictions which makes us think its harder than it is

don't get me wrong it's nontrivial

but a lot of it is because of the restrictions

[sly harness]

What ton of restrictions?

[paper notch]

:nowisadel:

[inland elbow]

no wis, withdraw limit

[sly harness]

Literally it comes down to Wis ban and reasonable withdrawal

[timber token]

This sounds like a fusion of IS and CC

[quick steppe]

withdraw limit not even checked for medal

:binoculars:

[inland elbow]

with the power of marco any withdrawal is reasonable

[faint rampart]

great uncle

[sly harness]

[paper notch]

3000 hours MAA be upon ye

[sly harness]

I am not grinding all night to play 1 run

[inland elbow]

not winrate maxxing smh

[nocturne cape]

what winrate maxxing

youve lost like 30 runs before you're able to do your 1 999 run

[sly harness]

My win rate at my peak of Sniper Medic Lamp was maybe around 33%
