[rich thorn]

classic old boss

[rich thorn]

Idk too

bro is from future

[remote badger]

[rough thorn]

1 and half hour wasted

im e2 ing ng , im sick and tired seeing my ptilo got blasted out exsistence with boss aoe arts dmg

[crystal niche]

@steel crest

talk

are

you

a

prophet

[steel crest]

is that not the is icon

[crystal niche]

you were definitely hallucinating

[sly harness]

anyone interested in gatherings some data?

[desert brook]

is it just seeing ending/encounter/relic/combat availability on each floor?

[sly harness]

yep encounters pool of each floor (we have something like this for IS5 and IS6, transalted from CN but i dont think there ever was something like this for IS3)

like this

[sly harness]

Here if you encounter anything new (especially stuff on f4 and f5) please add it

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sn-HcC8pBBOjjxNO7NTOuYVV7AswebEypFUa8h1HtVw/edit?usp=sharing>

[arctic panther]

it is but thats not the module icon

[crystal niche]

you...

[arctic panther]

its the is icon ontop of the original module

[sonic sable]

Easy

[maiden lotus]

which one is best here?

[brazen bane]

fight / emergency fight / run away

[quick steppe]

run away

[arctic panther]

run away

[slim helm]

got it right this time

[simple rover]

finally

[faint rampart]

congrats*3

[simple rover]

thankyou!!

i dont progress her module 2... since it was kinda bad...

[slim helm]

now to do it again two more times with the other squads

[faint rampart]

yep and ed4 will make you wanna end yourself anyways so

[rich thorn]

but ed4 is not that hard anyways

better than wang cuz special bosky and no -sp and bleeding relics

[slate hull]

yeah, the hardest part is learning some specifics like conserving f5 candles, pathing to tavern and drafting 4 block for the boss

but if do know what you are doing it is way better than playing ed3 and praying you get sp relics

[rich thorn]

or just trag

[faint rampart]

its cuz its boring

[rich thorn]

SA2 clear: https://youtu.be/s6PPkAkXJHQ

[earnest shuttle]

yea I just saw on ur channel

[sly harness]

next time i should probably go for Wis

[alpine solar]

how do i beat the guy

[errant siren]

Which guy?

[carmine token]

irl??

[ashen sundial]

https://www.krooster.com/u/des what 4*s to raise for sniper medic ros again

for is5

[errant siren]

May

[ashen sundial]

like to what extent

e2 40 mod3 or smth

[carmine token]

e2

[ashen sundial]

alr

[carmine token]

she is just used as slowbot

[ashen sundial]

like which 4* ops to raise, rn i know may, click, ethan and indigo

to e2 40 mod3 s2m3 right

[carmine token]

ethan and indigo yea

click and may only e2

[ashen sundial]

anything else?

[ashen sundial]

e2 level 1 right

[carmine token]

lvl10 ig

[ashen sundial]

im assuming s2m3 for both

[carmine token]

u use click early on as crystal breaker

may is used as slowbot

[ashen sundial]

figured

im assuming that uh

indigo, click ethan and may want s2m3

[crystal niche]

Isn't may s1

[carmine token]

sl7 is fine, but u can go for m3 on s1 for may

[crystal niche]

[ashen sundial]

oh sl7 works nvm

[carmine token]

may main skill is s1 cuz its powerstrike type skill

[crystal niche]

[carmine token]

and u can spam with high aspd

[ashen sundial]

shit i just realised

[crystal niche]

[ashen sundial]

agh i need to get their

trust up

[crystal niche]

[quaint garden]

At what difficulty does is3 start becoming a little bit more terrible

[crystal niche]

U moddin 3?

[quaint garden]

I just finished d7

[ashen sundial]

dont ethan and indigo want

mod3

[crystal niche]

Ethan mod1 is fine tbh

[ashen sundial]

[crystal niche]

Idk bout indigo

[ashen sundial]

[sly harness]

non, but it becomes great on d16+

[quaint garden]

https://tenor.com/view/dexter-james-doakes-erik-king-stare-staring-gif-1343162792415382650

[crystal niche]

Hey I have her e2lvl70 but I haven't done masteries or mod

So I'll have to try a bit more

[carmine token]

d16 gives a great relic at start

[crystal niche]

My d10 warriors will still be at d10

[ashen sundial]

ok indigo mod doesnt seem

too useful

one more charge and like a

5% extra chance to bind

[crystal niche]

Actually

[low vortex]

[crystal niche]

That seems useful

[low vortex]

lmao

[ashen sundial]

[crystal niche]

[ashen sundial]

another operator to get to 100% trust

[crystal niche]

:clueless:

[ashen sundial]

surely ethan isnt worth mod3 right

0.5 second extra long bind

[low vortex]

7% extra chance to bind

[crystal niche]

Nah not that worth tbh

[ashen sundial]

3% extra chance

[low vortex]

which is up from her 20% base

[ashen sundial]

7?

oh right

potentials

[low vortex]

Effectively a 35% buff to her bind chance

[crystal niche]

[crystal niche]

When did ur PFP become leizi again

[low vortex]

60% -> 81% on skill

[crystal niche]

[ashen sundial]

huh

i see

[carmine token]

he gets like 82% bind chance with mod3 s2m3

[low vortex]

also lmao, on ethan

[crystal niche]

Isn't it 75% without mod

Just m3

[ashen sundial]

augh

[crystal niche]

Or I might have forgotten

[ashen sundial]

so I’m assuming

[carmine token]

its 9% increase at mod3

from 75% to 84%

[crystal niche]

That you're a yuri lover

[ashen sundial]

indigo s2m3, click s2m3 and may s1m3 right

[ashen sundial]

me x you yuri when

[carmine token]

if u running high aspd run may just need sl7..

u arent gonna use her where but there to be a Slowbot

[ashen sundial]

i see

yeah lance should be enough to not need may s1m3

What about click and indigo

[carmine token]

bro

😭

[carmine token]

[ashen sundial]

I forgot

ok so

no real need to e2 click then right

since only need is to break crystals early on

wait isn’t the beginning draft ros Amiya gummy or smth

doesn’t Amiya cover crystal breaking

[inland elbow]

May needs s1m3 and +52 aspd to have perma slow uptime

[sly harness]

Middle of f3 draft

[inland elbow]

Secret hr letter 🫃

[sly harness]

and 2 Explorations in a row

[faint rampart]

go back to trees run, dont waste the luck

[quick steppe]

i believe this is what they call a "mpreg" moment

[ashen sundial]

doesn’t lance give like

150 aspd iirc?

[sly harness]

in tree runs i am luck too (but my skill is lacking)

50

[inland elbow]

Lance gives 50

[ashen sundial]

spinach should work for the last 2 aspd right

[sly harness]

Crown gives +150% ATK if you have 2 other Kings

[inland elbow]

Spinach gives no aspd

[faint rampart]

https://tenor.com/view/susge-sus-suspicious-susgeemote-emotesusge-gif-12862771718631627642

[ashen sundial]

was spinach a dmg buff or a

aspd buff

I forgot

[slim helm]

any suggestions on d9 is2? i feel like im being slapped senseless since the rework on difficulty on this ISS

[sly harness]

You need 1 more than that

[quick steppe]

beign slapped senseless soundsa bout right tbh

mode sucks wcyd

[sly harness]

[quick steppe]

maybe try archetto snipermed technology

[carmine token]

just get elysuim

[ashen sundial]

Cheeto draft just for may?

[carmine token]

[slim helm]

need to train her i do have her tho

[ashen sundial]

Doesn’t sniper med ros lamp struggle with vouchers

[sly harness]

And Mon3tr

[carmine token]

??

[quick steppe]

yes we know ros lamp is middling
tree squad can make do with less tbh

[ashen sundial]

That’s what the is central pin said

[quick steppe]

you can 3 op ed2 once chen3 comes 😊

mantragodia 😊

very flexible drafting in general tbh

esp if you play fatedless

and can pick all the hand ops without feeling the consequences

[inland elbow]

nah bruh don't lie to the noobs

I wouldn't say that ros lamp struggles with vouchers much at all

compared to other squads at any rate

[ashen sundial]

doesnt your guide in is central say it has high voucher reqs

[inland elbow]

yeah but not relative to other squads

[ashen sundial]

Ah

[inland elbow]

it's high in the sense that you have to keep it in mind

and play to maximize the value of vouchers

but not in the sense that a different squad has better voucher availability

[carmine token]

that doesnt means it struggest, i think it mean u have to pick the corect ops

[inland elbow]

except for like ingots squad

[ashen sundial]

I see

I’m still finicky about Cheeto draft for a single operator

Wait nvm mon3 there too

[quick steppe]

cheeto degen 2 op ed4 btw

[inland elbow]

cheeto comp is a different comp

[quick steppe]

or 2 six star rather

low voucher reqs

[ashen sundial]

no degen

[inland elbow]

out of class op and don't ask how many ops you need to keep degen alive

also no eyja is kinda 💀

[quick steppe]

quercus rose salt technology

[ashen sundial]

[inland elbow]

like to keep degen alive with +100%, you need rose salt, shamare, tinman, eyja alt

it's kinda goofy

[quick steppe]

ok but then you look really really cool doing it

and gather fans overseas

[inland elbow]

true

[carmine token]

aura

[carmine token]

s2 or s1??

for tin man

[inland elbow]

s1

the idea is you boat eyja on the first boat

and boat shamare on the 3rd

so you have to place down tinman after that to attack debuff

combined with rose salt degen barely lives

[carmine token]

enfeeble and -atk%

plus damage migation

[sly harness]

[faint rampart]

ballze

[sly harness]

But I got a nice Exu + SA clear with a funny spike chest twist

[jagged heath]

Does irene mostly use s2 in when it comes to her IS module?

[rich thorn]

isnt it s3 spam?

[jagged heath]

Oh?

I have zero clue

[rich thorn]

from what I saw, its VAGA YAIBA KIRISAKU spam

[sly harness]

1. she isn't used even with the IS module
2. S3

I got the most mpre ooc clear ever

And no Wonderland

[iron orchid]

my ass the rotosecond i see earth rage

[sly harness]

Nice ed4

[quick steppe]

i love dancing

[rich thorn]

The more im playing is5, the more im thinking what f1 1 battle 2 encounters are better just for rhodes gate gamba

[faint rampart]

The more im playing is6, the more im thinking that f1 bosky and ling node gamba is better

Idk schtil

[gaunt bay]

[muted tiger]

Ho'olheyak feels fun, ngl.

Ooh, this run is nice.

The horrible part is that I failed to get Lamp or Talon floor 1.

The great part is that I ran into an encounter node floor 3 to get all king's relics randomly.

[desert brook]

lmao

bro got dollar store lamp

[slate hull]

one of those funny flashlights that lets you move the lens

batteries not included

[prime mountain]

Now get f4 shifting city encounter and just win

Its that simple

Wait

This is exactly how my 245t3 run went

are we on to something

New is5 meta

[rich thorn]

to gamble all what you can?

[prime mountain]

nono the routing

[rich thorn]

f4 L&F, bosky face-off, rhodes gate f1

[prime mountain]

No talons

No talons > king encounter > shifting city

just get

[rich thorn]

should add rhodes gate for sure

for total

[prime mountain]

Yeah the ideal world would be rhoder's gate f1 > amiya f2 > king encounter f3 > shifting city at the end of f4

How peak

Such a world does not exist

[rich thorn]

cinema

[rich thorn]

sounds like 2 encounter f1 meta

🤣

[prime mountain]

Actually no cause then you die f2 or something

Cause no fights

no tempo

[rich thorn]

just dont die

shrimple

[muted tiger]

A nice thing about actually having a raised Ho'olheyak is that I have more than one actually draftable Core Caster.

[nocturne cape]

why do you want more than one draftable core caster

[rich thorn]

to pick anything what is not a 0 hope tempo shit?

[muted tiger]

Want might be a strong word for it.

[rich thorn]

core is like

eh

mantra for tragodia

thats all

🥀

if we talking about is5 lamp hands

[prime mountain]

You have the option! It's not good, it's just like there!

[arctic panther]

pram

[muted tiger]

[rich thorn]

thats flinger hand

[prime mountain]

Flinger hand slop smh

[arctic panther]

and

[rich thorn]

and we talk about core casters

[arctic panther]

yeah

[rich thorn]

you dirty handmixer

[arctic panther]

so we draft pram

[dark frigate]

Hello I want to beat Sui but i only have 9hp
Here is my current squad + the units i can switch with
Is there a way to beat it without leaking all of my hp
The main issue is the enemies that spawn on the left
Help would be appreciated

[rich thorn]

dont like pram in is5 anyways

[nocturne cape]

handmixing is heathy gameplay

[rich thorn]

with necro fields

🥀

[arctic panther]

even if i wasnt pram still goes on the te-

[arctic panther]

https://tenor.com/view/thorns-the-lodestar-thorns-arknights-darthilles-gif-gif-2045702477612206878

Aaannnddd I beat up some boats.

[arctic panther]

9lp, cant leak left side

you're fucked

[dark frigate]

my relics

[dark frigate]

im cooked i know which is why im asking for help

[rich thorn]

if I even handmix, it will be gnosis + trag

with sa2

[nocturne cape]

i will be undulation

my favorite

[dark frigate]

So any deployment positions or suggestions?

or is the run over

[rich thorn]

with dusk pick

[nocturne cape]

with passenger pick

Wisadel on S2 + Hoshiguma alter on S2 will be your best bet

Retreat her after taking out a wave of spearheads

Unless your wis can tank the stomps

[arctic panther]

i guess you could try throwing hoshi ines degen wis(on s2) and degen at left (individually-ish) while praying they can survive the stomps and hold out long enough for redeployment cooldowns to go away

[nocturne cape]

Deploy wis whenever a wave comes in

The rdp time will mostly line up

[arctic panther]

listen to the dalao player

[nocturne cape]

For the individual spearheads use raidian S2 + texas

[muted tiger]

Bears are annoyingly too heavy to levitate or something.

[dark frigate]

alr ill see what i can do
I guess i can tank a few spearheads

[proven dagger]

edging with phantom (he kills them without mine)

[muted tiger]

Aaannndddd I died to Theresis.

Apparently I was not ready for E4 buffed Theresis map with the 50% HP epoch.

Rip, me.

[proven dagger]

little baizao is a funny relic

[prime mountain]

bro is on spec/cast and didnt have mizuki to counter ed2 🥀

[muted tiger]

I literally don't have Mizuki.

[prime mountain]

The one redemption of spec/cast

[muted tiger]

Mistakes were probably made.

[dark frigate]

@arctic panther @nocturne cape
Looking good so far
almost done

[prime mountain]

just dont leak left side and you're good!!!

[dark frigate]

yessir

Phantom definitely carried his cat clutched up

holy clutch
1hp left

yessir
Cleared had one hp left
Phantom S2 clutched up

[slim hull]

Any special encounter in is5 floor 6 or no

[gaunt bay]

Hi meowrillo

[prime mountain]

Omg hi kiwi!!! how you doing

[gaunt bay]

Quite shite but i am holding on

[gaunt bay]

Mrow

[remote badger]

weirdly tired but not sleepy

[deft breach]

Is there any reason to take coin geists other than botching my run?

[inland elbow]

Pointsmaxxing

[slate hull]

coin geists are so weird, I feel like you have to do some kind of weird raidian solo run and pick some low dp operator you are never going to use for anything other than trading dp values

I can't think of any other actual purpose

[prime mountain]

To post a picture here to flex

!

[desert brook]

it's funny

[slate hull]

it does solve that one annoying dp thief stage if you are lucky enough

but then you get to ed2 and get 26dp waai fu

[desert brook]

yeah but then you get like 5 dp hoshi or something

[gaunt bay]

Tfw 24 dp exu yup

[remote badger]

must've been the winds

[open girder]

(IS2) I assume that I've been for a long time only going for 6* or zero hope ops and it was working just fine
BUT
To get all collectibles I need to do missions that force me into a more diverse squad (which is great)

so now I'm having a LOT of fun with stuff like SA2 s3 + Gravel (especially fun with Focus as well)

[charred lake]

who can stall the jellies in izumik stage other than pramalt and weedy

[nocturne cape]

nice

gj

[flint token]

Ela stalls relatively well
honse

[charred lake]

need someone to push back

cant use lemon to dps em down

[flint token]

Sounds like you need a certain charger

[charred lake]

not enough

[charred lake]

why tho?

which op fits the job

i have feater gladiia shaw

ascalon

[muted tiger]

Time to do an easier IS (instead of getting my ass kicked by IS5 D18 245 attempts again).

[charred lake]

but then determination and vigil messes with that

[muted tiger]

Like IS4!

[charred lake]

[charred lake]

who?

wildmane?

[flint token]

wait fuck i forgot her name

right wildmane

you can also just check the is-central github for other options

[charred lake]

... 40 sp

[flint token]

Apparently that’s enough somehow

[charred lake]

wtf

i was thinking about feater s1

[flint token]

i mean there’s a super strong stall option but idt you would want to draft her

[charred lake]

until i rwalized that one targets block count

only feater s2 gladiia s3 works

mb shaw s2???

[flint token]

Idt you should take shaw for jellies

cycles bad

[charred lake]

[flint token]

and her push is weak

[charred lake]

feater?

[flint token]

er

[charred lake]

force of 2 is gud enough

[flint token]

what are you trying to stall jellies for tho

[charred lake]

2.96 tiles

[flint token]

are you trying to do starve

[charred lake]

no feed

[flint token]

Hmm

im not too familiar with no feed

You gotta ask bait for this

[charred lake]

ok

[prime mountain]

Is this what #is-station has devolved to

Don't know how to help

Is it is6 related > ask lukas

[open girder]

Do people generally miss not having IS1 around anymore?

Like unique mechanics, story, etc

[inland elbow]

ur really not missing out on much

the maps were reused into is2

and the bosses are in is3

[brazen bane]

there's no mechanics brah

the only thing missing is story

[inland elbow]

so the story goes

coebe eats mushrooms

and goes on a fun adventure!

on one ending she rejoins RI

[brazen bane]

the bosses get isekai'd to IS3

[inland elbow]

in another she dies!

[open girder]

Oh damn

[inland elbow]

you're caught up

[brazen bane]

moral of the story

dont do drugs

you might die

[nocturne cape]

@inland elbow whats the best strat for tryhard IS2 D15

[inland elbow]

so what ur gonna want to do

is pick speccast

and mizuki start 🔥

[nocturne cape]

Why mizuki

[charred lake]

ig its either black hole stall or femboi

so i did some math and uhh the jellies will be 1.26 tiles away after 18s if i used ela mines and ines slow

i think feater can stall

since shes 2 tiles away from the em

[woeful knot]

phantom angelina
lee

playing with slows is also a part of the two

play ela asca or even mag mosti

[charred lake]

ela asca?

[charred lake]

lee?

[woeful knot]

yes im listing ops

theyre used in starve comps

[gaunt bay]

Nah is3 teaches us that no matter what we do we die

So do drugs

[woeful knot]

lee in particular is an old starve core

[gaunt bay]

[woeful knot]

🚬 i dont particularly suggest playing into lee

but if you dont have anyone else

wcyd

[brazen bane]

raise a jellyfish

[charred lake]

i think i dont need feater stall

tho i aint gon throw 2 or 1 more hope for a staller

[gaunt bay]

I heard lee gets you into tourneys

[charred lake]

why lee

specifically

[woeful knot]

lee is op

this is known

[gaunt bay]

Old lore

Dw about it 😇

[charred lake]

guess ill just sttick with feater

shes alr s1l7

might as well double down

[open girder]

Out of sheer curiosity, are there any collectibles or anything that can scale the hp of the citizens that we need to save on that one map on IS2?

[severe perch]

can't i refresh node first before i use my coupon to move node vertically?

[dry tusk]

which is better

[spring sluice]

Is there a suggested AOE caster at 4* or like 5* wellfare? I find my runs like to end on the level where the big thrower guys turn into 20 li'l flying dudes

[charred lake]

which is?

[brazen bane]

[faint rampart]

use ethan

is that mizuki pull is mod?

godayum , nvr thought of that , sometimes im wondering what this hole could be

[faint rampart]

wis s2 can cope too if you use her

[spring sluice]

I'm using borrowed trag + lappland, dorothy a few healers and blaze/saria. The roster isn't particularly peak as I'm "new" (old acc was bound only to twitter and couldn't be recovered)

[charred lake]

[faint rampart]

ripge

[brazen bane]

the small things take certain number of hits to kill, thats why we can Ethan S1 to kill them quick

if you somehow cant pick ethan

S2 Raidian and Click can cope

[frozen walrus]

is this "guided tour 2 or above" as per raidian's e2 mission requirements? i see it says "Guided Tour - 3 in effect" on the left, but i'm not sure if that's referring to the same thing

[spring sluice]

that makes a ton of sense. I'm juuust a bit short on Ethan rn

but I'll get him when I get enough reds

[rough thorn]

this is d0 , clear dem difficulty one by one to unlcok it

[spring sluice]

Ya you need to win like 3 times. It's awful (imo)

[brazen bane]

[spring sluice]

So you don't think I should build some other 4* specifically for this? In some ways that's good news 🙂

[rough thorn]

tbh if you get the hang of it , its a breeze really , esp low diff , but yeah hit rate stages can catch u off guard if youre not prepared

[frozen walrus]

this is quite cooked 💀 everyone online says raidian trivializes is6, but she feels extremely weak, and i'm guessing it's cuz she's stuck at e1 max

[faint rampart]

raidian with the goated mod solos this stage i heard

[brazen bane]

purestream and windscoot are worth too

(they count for Yan requirements)

and are decent enough

[rough thorn]

shes literally the best ops you could use for is6, just look at all those buffs

[spring sluice]

makes sense. I've beaten guided tour zero but the slog to get raidian to e2 is... still in progress

[faint rampart]

https://is-central.github.io/is6-sui/low-rarity-recommendations/

[spring sluice]

wish I could get a good player to win a couple tours on my acc so I could just have no-stress runs xD

[errant siren]

Cylinder.

[spring sluice]

Appreciate it!

I think I don't need the healers because I have a super nice roster of heals, but it's nice to know people recommend leizi

not sure if I can send roster here but it feels like what I'm missing is AOE when no sniper drops

[rough thorn]

there are plenty of guide here in pins, go check em out , is6 by far is the easiest is for me personally

[spring sluice]

I've mostly been following them, but it feels like runs just end after a few hours when I take too hard of a fight or mismanage the final boss and then I get discouraged haha

having exactly 4 operators at S2 can't help either

ooh can somebody explain how the game decides when you get a "borrowed operator"?

like sometimes it gives you an E2 you don't own

[rough thorn]

first time starting you bound to failed multiple times its normal, but as soon you got dem skill tree unlocked and all the squads, everything feels like a smooth sailing from there on

just focus on upgrading raidian, she gon help you tremendously

[crystal niche]

nevaaa

[ashen sundial]

die

[potent gulch]

Btw i met a special mob just now in is6
It look like some baby dragon
When it took dmg until 50? Or 30 hp? It stun all my ops for insanely long duration

[crystal niche]

15 hits

and not dmg

but hits

so you could one shot it

altho it counters exu2 so wonderfully

that I hate it

[faint rampart]

temp recruitment?
usually its not e2
unless special tongbao/random e2 5* or something

[charred lake]

in what way?

[crystal niche]

cuz exu dmg comes from a lot of bullets

so alot of hits

meaning u get stunned

[charred lake]

man

[crystal niche]

[faint rampart]

oh wait

[spring sluice]

Yeah temp recruitment. They can be upgraded to E2 , which is clutch because it's better than most of my characters

They (and my borrowed trag) usually carry my runs

[faint rampart]

~~did you mean e2 starting squad ~~

[potent gulch]

So to counter it require either someone does instant multi hit Or ready another ops or ranged summon?

[charred lake]

whatever go my tragodia

[crystal niche]

no just high damage in a single instance

[crystal niche]

or that

idk if it can be lured tho

[charred lake]

i thinm so

[spring sluice]

no lol

Borrowed operator

big level

my operator

little lebel

[faint rampart]

borrowed could mean borrowing sup op from a friend

[spring sluice]

So how can I get more temp opertors

[faint rampart]

damn reed

[glacial socket]

should i always save recruitment vouchers till i get to a pathfinder node?

[spring sluice]

She's turning E2 tomorrow ❤️

chips map is closed lol

[spring sluice]

imo yes

[faint rampart]

its random
theres is a coin which can you get 6* e2 ops but uhhh, need that encounter

[spring sluice]

sad

ooh I know the coin ya

[faint rampart]

dont save vouchers, doing pathfinder fight is better

[spring sluice]

those guys p much carry my runs

Noted, thx for the tip!

How do you make your ops candleguest then?

[faint rampart]

pathfinder fight does allow you to cguest them
/Face off node

[spring sluice]

ah okay makes sense

[faint rampart]

/lei fa coin
im prolly forgetting something

[spring sluice]

v good tip

I mean 4$ candles in shop

[crystal niche]

4$ candles?

[steel relic]

Smoky whatever in f1

[signal niche]

how do i kill yi reliably?

ive clear him a few times but everytime its messy

if only there is an easy way to ignore the exploding thing

[compact citrus]

what did the update add?

[faint rampart]

check guide in pins

[errant siren]

There is a way.

You just stall him.

With either super ass tanky unit

Or cheap with very fast RedeployTime.

[spring sluice]

:gravel:

[errant siren]

[signal niche]

doesnt he keep spawning more of them?

[spring sluice]

he spawns ghosts in the like 2 rows above and below

so if your ops are on bottom

[errant siren]

Yes, but that's the thing - he only spawns those in same rows as him.

[glacial socket]

if i get 100+ LP against sui, does that mean i can just leak everything

[spring sluice]

ans your gravel is blocking him on top

[spring sluice]

except yi, yes

[errant siren]

If you isolate him, he won't do anything to your main ops.

[signal niche]

ohhhhhhh

[errant siren]

[signal niche]

can you block yi?

[spring sluice]

ya

[errant siren]

Sure

Block 1

[glacial socket]

wasnt there a strategy where you can get unlimited kettles

[spring sluice]

there's an unlimited shield strat basically

[errant siren]

Yes, Ling milking.

[crystal niche]

meh

[glacial socket]

i want to milk ling

[charred lake]

[crystal niche]

milking the drunk dragon

[errant siren]

[crystal niche]

[glacial socket]

i want ling to milk me also

[charred lake]

[crystal niche]

all u gonna do is die bruv

[charred lake]

i think im gon do is3 d18 instead of watching chat implode

pray knight doesnt get one tapped

[glacial socket]

sacrifices must be done

[desert brook]

yes
but foot leaks 50
so you actually need a little more than 100

[crystal niche]

oh what

foot leaks 50

never done that so I thought it was the same

[glacial socket]

should have done this in my run right now lol

can i just skip to S3M3 with it's quest or do i have to M3 form S1 to S3

[earnest shuttle]

no ed4

[sly harness]

Class squad looking draft

Also quite a rare case of no ed4

[faint rampart]

6 e2

https://tenor.com/view/susge-sus-suspicious-susgeemote-emotesusge-gif-12862771718631627642

[earnest shuttle]

I did encounter maxxing tho

but most of them are battle encounter

[sly harness]

You should start drafting like this, this was f3

Although ye People-Oriented Hope can be very back loaded so not having f6/Wonderland to hit lv11 will limit you

Lv11 gives 20 15 Hope

5 max LP and 2 squad size too

[earnest shuttle]

but i dont have ange and kaltsit

[sly harness]

Wait for Kal2 and draft Hool in Angelina place

[earnest shuttle]

always lacking somebody when I play IS

I do have ho'ol but no resources to upgrade her rn

[sly harness]

Do it in preparation for IS6 dlc2

[sly harness]

Know the pain I don't have Qiubai and it once killed me in IS5

[gaunt bay]

fuck hool

hate her

[sly harness]

https://tenor.com/view/susge-sus-suspicious-susgeemote-emotesusge-gif-12862771718631627642

[open girder]

Do all the other IS have multiple endings like 2?

[lunar knoll]

yes

[open girder]

Should I assumed some are like ending 3 with the encounter funfest

[brazen bane]

yea

[earnest shuttle]

encounter rng ending are is2 and is3
from is4 onward its easier to get from other source

[brazen bane]

but over time the player get more control over ending

[quaint garden]

Territorial Tendencies might just be the second worst is3 stage ever

[alpine solar]

do people draft crownslayer in any is

[chilly garden]

Fellow is addict

Can y'all give some tips for IS4

I only wanted to get the operator

[errant siren]

Don't die

Ril

[chilly garden]

Real

Peak tips

[gray pulsar]

borrow exu2 and steamroll it

[chilly garden]

How about roach?

[errant siren]

Roach also steamroll that.

[chilly garden]

Aight

[gray pulsar]

exu2 is better but roach works too

[chilly garden]

I forgot that Raidian kinda mid for the older IS

[gray pulsar]

raidian is kinda 🚮 outside of is6

[chilly garden]

When playing too much IS6

Where is reserve recruitment button?

[crystal niche]

u don't need that even in is6

[chilly garden]

Nah I like that mechanic

Because I'm a sucker in managing hope

[rough thorn]

16 dp summons, might as well use bunch of frd for that

is6 literally pamper her a lot

[brazen bane]

HG cooking her a second (useless) IS module instead of a normal module

[sly harness]

Normal is chill, EM is very ass, especially when it comes to Knight protecting

[chilly garden]

Dagda situation

[floral plaza]

normal you just kill everything from range then deal with pompeii

em pompeii deal with you from his box

[chilly garden]

IS7 when

[floral plaza]

they canceled it we getting IS8 instead

[chilly garden]

We got IS8 before IS7

[sly harness]

On NM Territorial there is this trick that if you block shift Pompeii when he is standing in front of the red box he won't be able to hit middle left range tile.

[floral plaza]

ya IS8 is so good it skipped 7

[cursive verge]

Qiubai is pnly s1m3 right for is5

[sly harness]

she works fine e1

[cursive verge]

So jot even luxury e2 mayerial damn 🥀

[paper notch]

wtf why raidian getting hate

[crystal niche]

cuz she's a god in her own is and a burden in others

[quaint garden]

It genuinely hurts to do ending 2 especially after getting the -80% def relic for him

[sly harness]

don't pick the debuff

this is purely negative for you

[quaint garden]

But he's a pain

[sly harness]

if you don't mind Trag is the easiest solution nowadays

but there is quite a few ways to perma stall him

[crystal niche]

trap

[sly harness]

Trag

Trag and Ela Trap if relicless

[crystal niche]

[earnest shuttle]

funny how the game gave me that encounter after he dies

[foggy oriole]

how many ops are you supposed to send into scout for ed4

like istg

I always die to some random shit in f5

[crystal niche]

13

[sly harness]

Scout only 1, send more in the ed4 Bosky

[foggy oriole]

you can send more??

is this a can't read moment

holup

[sly harness]

Yep in special ed4/f6 Bosky you can use a special variant of Doubt nodes (there is 12 of them) to send more ops

[crystal niche]

just use 300 ingots for 12 candles

then u can get them all

[foggy oriole]

😭

[crystal niche]

or other things like shield and coupons

[foggy oriole]

what do people recommend for the scout send

raidian?

[crystal niche]

matterhorn

[foggy oriole]

I hope this is a troll answer because I don't have him upgraded

[sly harness]

Not really 12 candles from base + f5
30 Ingots / 6 Coupons / 10 LP / 10 Shields = 2 Candles each

[foggy oriole]

[crystal niche]

I don't do +f5

[sly harness]

Nah Matterhorn or some other useless body

Generally some 4* that can be useful in ed4 (second part is optional)

The "carry" stuff will be sent through the special Bosky

[foggy oriole]

I guess the goal is to just get the ending relic not to actually send them in scout

[sly harness]

Yes

Scout used normally to promote ops have a lot of value too (especially with the Scout coin they are insane, 6 Coupons iirc)

[grizzled nexus]

Huh, Sui Feet isn't immune to Bind and Mizuki can bind him mid stomp and stopping it to perform the global damage stomp...

[faint rampart]

wtf tech??

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/976478719499718757.webp?size=48&name=Binoculars

[sly harness]

I think something else must have happened

Like I used Mizuki a few times in ed2 and never noticed anything like this

(I am willing to believe it if I see it on a video )

now how do I clear this

[tacit hollow]

so is there any info on is7 date yet

[severe oasis]

no

[remote badger]

probably around june

[paper notch]

im guessing after ccb5 🥹

[sly harness]

A very cool Wisadel placement

[stable yarrow]

It been quite a while

I forgot how to play is6

[tacit hollow]

raidian it all until f4

[stable yarrow]

So about them candles

Also the draft

Yan yan yan yan?

[tacit hollow]

i nvr take yan if theyre not free

[faint rampart]

damn that squad 👴 ground breach something

[sly harness]

Exu2 and Hoshi2 ban

[tacit hollow]

the only yan worth picking are leialter, and chenalter alter, wang

[tacit hollow]

is hoshi yan or higashi

[brittle grove]

Both

[tacit hollow]

fr?

[sly harness]

I don't know anything about politics

[tacit hollow]

how can 1 be both

[remote badger]

exu2:

[brittle grove]

Lgd stuff

[tacit hollow]

why is bro both jp and cn

thts crazy

[brittle grove]

LGD is yan so

[sly harness]

will there be a long maintenance break today?

[brittle grove]

Yea 10 minutes or smt

[faint rampart]

nop keep playing 😇

[brittle grove]

Around 500mb patch time to steal wifi

[errant siren]

Yes. Be careful.

Actually

A 10min one

Not 4h

But be careful anyway

[sly harness]

but it is the one 4h after daily reset?

[rough thorn]

so is2 end3 boss , his dolls have aggresion -1 , what did it mean?b

[brittle grove]

Start 4h after reset, lasting 10 minutes

[rough thorn]

like if there other mobs around my ops would just straight up ignore the dolls?

[brittle grove]

Ye except special targeting

[rough thorn]

they still can be affcted by splash dmg right? like wis huge splash dmg etc

[brittle grove]

ye ofc

[grizzled nexus]

Brih I just run into a play where there is not a single Scout Node in F3 and F4. I don't remember the F2 though...

[earnest shuttle]

I placed e2 wis on the right side and exu on the left to shoot the drone guy when he comes

[broken imp]

i dont really understand how this thing work

[crystal niche]

it does what it says

[broken imp]

this work like a reset node right?

[crystal niche]

refresh ye

[broken imp]

.....

[remote badger]

talismans

[broken imp]

no the thing below it

is the problem

[remote badger]

cant see

[broken imp]

it is spiky

[remote badger]

must've been the winds

manage your dps well and spike chests are not an issue

[broken imp]

the problem is you dont even see it in first place

this thing good?

[rich thorn]

no

but if you dont have that many ingots, why not

can gamba for vouchers

and if you lucky enuff, can jump into bosky and not toss it before that

and trade for something better, like cocoon

best case is - toss it in bosky, do some battles and either use or preserve vouchers (tempo ops could be rerolled that way in voucher), and trade it in plan node on last candle

[sick mason]

Worst feeling when got this thing from floor 2 bosky was that it was tossed after I exit the bosky and the next node is wish node

[slim helm]

good if lacking ingots and tossed when doing a series of combat nodes, otherwise a bit of a scam

[sick mason]

Yeah it’s better to get this tongbao via bosky/wonderland rather than normal encounter node

Also, y’all prefer to call it the Ascent or Godblessed (old name)?

[rich thorn]

ascend better, but idk why, but always thinking about it as Firework

[next dew]

For me, it's good if your account just don't have much six stars or good operators

Which is usually a new account

I guess it can help reach level 65 faster for that six star masteries

[grizzled nexus]

Welp, tried it again and seems like I'm wrong, Mizuki can't stop the stomping it seems...

Must be my eyes, brain, or something. I remember that the feet just stomp 1 times and just kinda stopped...

[foggy oriole]

is ente not enough to handle beyond mount and seas or am I just bad

😭

I just explode with like -20

should I just always draft ascalon at this point

I hate this expansion so much

[sly harness]

she will most likely at least need some cc to slow the spearheads down

Ascalon/Wis are the two best option for this map and trying to get at least one of them always will help a lot

Prama may work well to

if you are not going for any of them you should probably draft like Ethan (or Ela/Suzuran/Shu) to support some weaker hit count solution

[crystal niche]

how does mizuki fare with pram2

[rich thorn]

mizuki has lower hit count

[sly harness]

like here i have an attempt with Ente + Leizi but no good cc and it is messy https://youtu.be/UJxiXBpErTM?si=JuAn7J88D304ciO9

[rich thorn]

pram works cuz push + cold tiles

[broken imp]

playing with this thing is so hard

[sly harness]

and target cap on cc

[rich thorn]

that too

[sly harness]

only 5 or somthing

[rich thorn]

aska better cuz poison

[sonic sable]

I think nasti might be pretty pointless in is?

All she can do there are relics for it

[rich thorn]

she is good unit to have, but not needed

[sly harness]

i imagine that playing with 2 bad 6* can be hard

[rich thorn]

and wang/chen3 have bigger priority

🥀

[broken imp]

Sky always red

[sly harness]

good for relicless

[broken imp]

Not getting defensive relic either

Everything die in 2 hit

[rich thorn]

next will be titi recomendation cuz she is wang babysitteR?

[sly harness]

yes

[crystal niche]

when are you getting nasti when her competition are angelina,hool,trag, or gnussy

[rich thorn]

bad lukas

bad

[crystal niche]

[rich thorn]

😭

[sly harness]

(i believe more in Titi in IS than Nasti)

[crystal niche]

like truly

wait is titi a caster

[rich thorn]

no
