Event Guide: Hazard Patrol (maps on sheet), Wasteland Impact, Sojourners - Part 1

[split token]

Event is unlocked at lvl20, will edit for corrections and updates assuming i have time Char limit so will only be for stuff unlocked week 1
__Hazard Patrol: __
locations for area navigator and boss are preset for each stage and do not change. the coordinates count (1, 1) as the bottom left corner, like so: https://imgur.com/a/FQZsyzI. Knowing the locations makes it much easier to hit "no greater than" step counts.

Wasteland Impact
A lot easier to play on pc. Suomi weapon 2 has higher rof than weapon 1 and 50 mag size compared to weapon 1 40 mag size so its better to use. Spas second weap supposedly better for mobile players since lower recoil and rof, as well as spread. All weaps can clear w/ all rewards so just use whatever feels best for you.

Sojourners -Part I
Message count forced me to separate it into another post in this channel, figured it was better to separate the clear guides since its a 1 time clear: #1314152365951160432 message
the clear guides are also pinned

[lyric drum]

To add on if you’re struggling with strange doll/hard mode and need to uncap your tickets remember that assist exists

[split token]

ah yeah i should mention that

[lyric drum]

and you can still sweep even if you used assist to clear

[split token]

considering i cleared hard stage 5 w a whel qbz while i was 10 lvls under

[lyric drum]

i was tweaking so hard tryna beat strange doll before reset

didnt realize event let you use assist

[golden veldt]

i only thought about it when i ran out of things to do in the game aside from being stat diff'ed in hard event and expansion drills

Event Guide Week 1

Event Guide: Hazard Patrol, Wasteland Impact, Sojourners - Part 1

[golden veldt]

me when i realize theres a message limit

[tranquil seal]

Oh hey Heh, Nice seeing you wanting to do Part 1 event with Groza Team! I've already done most of it while also being underleveled, so if anybody has specific questions about those clears I'll be more than willing to answer!

[split token]

i expect for half of it to be autos tbh

[tranquil seal]

to be fair, Krolik sometimes just dies.

[split token]

you are tempting me to use vepley or cheeta since both free

[golden veldt]

[tranquil seal]

It is actually quite ideal because for hard stage

You can have one of your units die usually

Krolik is the most expendable and the one that can do the most damage to the backline.

At worst she can distract the enemies and make them stay futher away from the other 3 as you turtle in a corner and do Prophecy Nemesis with Groza Suppression Fire, and Colphne's S2 has infinite range for her heal and will always target Krolik if everyone else took no damage.

[balmy citrus]

Hazard Hard 1 floor 3 is half correct. Its (3,2)

[golden veldt]

mistype

[tranquil seal]

[balmy citrus]

[tranquil seal]

Thank you Aees btw

You reminded me I should do the hard version of those explorations

[split token]

i even wrote down the rules as general hazard patrol rules seem to be that the area navigator is always on the edge and the boss is always in middle 4 by 3 boxes
these locations are preset for each stage and do not change

[golden veldt]

and then put down impossible location

[surreal hazel]

Man that debuff is punishing for Hazard 2. Probably need to run Cheeta and Cophie

[split token]

for hard?

you can just take reduce max exploration charge and 4% hp damage after 55 steps

since neither make a difference

[surreal hazel]

The boss actually. She keeps utterly wiping out the exploration team and the pulling markers are invincible.

[golden veldt]

oh team comps are very subject to your character roster

[split token]

ooh wow this is pretty rough

[split token]

...does the character need to be on the same elevation for the cleanse to proc

that was awful

lvl20

no stock bar ascension

time to see if i can rember it when i redo

turn 12/12 barely meets dps check is pretty scuffed

yeah this is pretty rng

onyx stele spawns in particular

[split token]

i dont want to do more hazard patrol with level 20 no neural expansion

https://youtu.be/bO1AlLtlymw

[willow oak]

Hi, i dont quite understand this, and i dont have suomi

[split token]

you can ignore the first bit about suomi

[willow oak]

Can someone explain this in depth or show some yt links?

[split token]

and nade randomly then walk up if you miss to try and trigger her attack

creepy doll goes invisible in a certain area, and she only reappears if you walk next to her or aoe where she is

or next turn but ideally you dont wait since its a dps loss

walking next to her kinda sucks cause you eat a hit and lose that units action

so ideally you nade her to remove the invis

[willow oak]

Just random aoe?

Use them anywhere? Just spam it?

[split token]

yeah just aoe someone in the smoke area you think she is

and then if you miss, run units through the smoke area and hopefully reveal her

then rewind regardless

i wrote (1,1) being the bottom left square

[slate vector]

oh f, mb

[split token]

anyway ill try and adjust the invis part to be more understandable

it was written as some quick notes for some friends

[willow oak]

If i still dont find her, repeat?

[split token]

eh

depends

[willow oak]

Alright thanks, ill try

[split token]

sometimes you dont have the movement to cover all the smoke area so if shes far you cant reveal

[split token]

so you might not want to burn rewinds on that if youre only really getting the aoe guess

waiting out the invis isnt that awful

[willow oak]

What to do if i find her? Just burst her down and ignore minions?

[split token]

mostly really matters if youre struggling to dps before the timer

[willow oak]

Gotcha, tysm

Really appreciate the help

[split token]

if you can get away with ignoring minions cause they dont have the walkup range, you can do that

can also burn a turn where shes invis'ed just killing minions instead

so you arent wasting the turn entirely

ok yeah 2k character limit isnt working for that

ill just write it separately

extra notes regarding boss mechanics:
creepy doll goes invisible in a certain area, and she only reappears if you walk next to her (in which case she interrupts and hits you) or aoe where she is or next turn but ideally you dont wait since its a dps loss. this only really matters if you arent hitting the turn requirement for the stage
when she goes invis you can check where she is w/ suomi aoe dmg number (if you own) -> nade that area or nade randomly -> walk up to try and proc her interrupt if you didnt find w/ those -> end turn then rewind if youre still looking
charge atk is pretty self explanatory, tank w suomi shields or go to a different elevation
try not to get hit by afterimages or her interrupt since you eat dmg while losing that units action

tbh this optimization doesnt matter much unless youre failing the turn requirement

clearing w/o full stars is fine cause you can come back to clear later

and the objective is to rush to unlock and clear the first hard mode stage since the tickets for that regen daily

anyway its 6 am im going to sleep

will do the normal maps w the lvl20 beginner units when i wake up

[willow oak]

Alright thanks, ill wait for the vids or anything like it

Im having hard time doing the last stage to unlock hard mode

And im not even aiming for 3 stars

And if possible, could u also include like the investment or sth like that in the guide?

I can find creepy doll, but i cant kill her, at all

[split token]

ok 7 and 10 are the actual difficult stages

auto'ed the rest altho 8 and 9 were a bit close

easily doable manual

10 boss stats are pretty pain for lv20 no neural expansion

not sure if i can meet the dps requirement tbh

stage 7 boss has 3.4k hp and you need to bring her below 30% so only 2.38k hp, whereas stage 10 is 4.5k hp

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf1AVKIn39yrwjEwPYUb2-N-_42p2GtD3&si=PseXjlMEwFZx6pXB

i will struggle with 10 later

please just bring a friend qbz if youre underleveled

hmm maybe i bring vepley instead of groza for more damage

[tranquil seal]

I did do it with Nemesis Key 1

That's a big DPS boost for your team, and overall Nemesis is a good character to train for lategame (at least for secondary team in Boss Fight)

I also did with like

Krolik dead for most of the fight

[split token]

lmao

ill prob do that then if i cant meet dps when i try some more

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, just remember to have Nemesis attack first and alternate between Skill 1/Ult while boss has Prophecy and Skill 2 for when they don't

If you should replace anyone, it would be Krolik, because at least Groza can spam her AOE Grenate Ult nearly every turn if she's close to her team

[split token]

yeah nice for revealing and killing clones

[tranquil seal]

And Krolik just gets locked down by clones and risks dying if she runs through the mist

Because boss also has the same opportunity attack as the clones when invisible

As a side note, you could also buy the two common keys in the event shop

Those also help raise the damage number

[split token]

pretty sure the guide will still be rng and not 1 to 1 copyable, since the spawns and invis locations seem to be somewhat randomized

maybe i write a whole text block on the strategy too

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, best way to do 1-10 consistently is to do the stairs cheese

Basically, you need your whole team to stay on one of the platforms and have two of the characters stand next to the stairs so that boss and clones can't climb

[split token]

yeah i abused that a ton on 7 already

but the issue w 10 is really the dps

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, if you need damage you need to solve it with attachments and certain fixed keys

You still need to make up that level difference

[sharp pier]

is there like a min req for this event, like what do you mean Im getting bodied by the easy hazard patrol 2

[split token]

nah its just kinda rough cause you need to get across the map and repeatedly kill adds to remove the dot debuffs

and then stability break boss and burst while shes broken since she doesnt get the damage reduction for those 2 turns

honestly you can come back when youre really overleveled tho

since only the hard stage tix is something that regens daily

[sharp pier]

the things that do damage and pull that spawn in the middle is impossible to kill, need to remove so much stability

im only lv 21 so ill probably come back at 25? will see if I can rush progress

[split token]

...

this is so fkn stupid

i got the setup down

she cant hit me at all

teleports to nearest tile of lowest hp doll -> nemesis is lowest hp -> closest tile is at the bottom of the ladder

well i did it w lvl20 nemesis exact same setup as before no key

time to actually record and die to early rng

also idk why i said rewind after nades

when you should end turn then rewind

to guaranteed find

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiPvdKjDNdA/

hmm

do i rerecord 7 with the same strat

[winged cave]

can anyone explain this im confused af

what floor 1 : 3,5 mean ?

[split token]

like that

hm maybe i should embed an image

[winged cave]

okay so i start count from the bottom

is it to avoid or to go to?

[split token]

err

its an x and y axis

1,1 is the bottom left

[winged cave]

yeah i understand now

but the location you say is where i want to rush to right?

[split token]

3,5 is where the area locator is

[winged cave]

thx

[split token]

smth smth

[split token]

...

[sharp pier]

just verify bro

[split token]

effort

nah id wait

[restive minnow]

Is there a buying guide for this event as in Prio?

ah I found it there, was over looking it. Sorry getting late for me

[split token]

yeah should be able to clear whole shop if you started using tickets early enough

prio is technically memory sticks/special gifts cause you can improve your logistics immediately

[restive minnow]

I just got 20 myself, I'm reading through that story section but it's long per say, I should just rush through it so I can start using my tickets in it.

[split token]

simply play an unhealthy amount daily

[restive minnow]

haha. I have been actually. Just reading the story and then once I got 20 started the event and reading through it, it does take a lot of time up when I should just skip all that and fight, fight and fight some more.

I just finally got Soumi after 63 pulls.. Think I'm ok with just the V0 of her. Being F2P, I think I'ma save the rest of my gems/pulls for another banner later on

[split token]

alright 7 cheese and hard 1 recorded

dont think ill bother doing hazard patrol or the rest of hard w this cope

hard 1 was already more ladder cheese and the turns were cutting it close

8 level difference moment

basically every stage that was difficult i ladder cheesed

[restive minnow]

you a hero

[split token]

so stupid

[restive minnow]

ah if its there use it

[split token]

its this basically

[restive minnow]

I'm seeing a lot of guides stating that a V1 Soumi is just over killl

so guess I'm ok with V0 and save my gems then.

[split token]

probably is

really depends what you need still

[restive minnow]

it took me 63 pulls just to get her.. and it was the only SSR that I gotten

well this is my roster

[split token]

vertical teambuilding by investing everything in 1 char really hurts as an f2p id guess

[quick slate]

hello. Also F2P, just got Suomi with 21 tickets. Think I should invest my entire reserve of collapse pieces into trying to V1?

[golden veldt]

i dont think im the greatest person to ask for this

[split token]

depends on if you need other roles i guess

not having a good dps hurts a lot

im pulling for v1 on my main as f2p since i already have qbz and tolo

[quick slate]

I'll be honest I suck, I don't know why things people say are meta are meta

I figure anyone who's helping maintain a guide knows more than I do

[split token]

meta is just being better than other options usually

suomi is kinda insane compared to other healers

since we dont have aoe healers till centi

and even then shields do different things than healers since you can potentially tank things that would 1 tap you

v1 basically fixes her weaknesses is what ive heard

better stability regen and hp heal on ult

then again, ive heard that meta doesnt matter a lot outside of pvp?

since you can just borrow a whale friend support for a lot of things

the issues we're facing now are really early game things where we're vastly underlvled but later that shouldnt be a problem later

[slate vector]

normal level 4 (3,3)

[split token]

oh is 4 out

[slate vector]

boss (4,3):D

[split token]

aight ty

[quick slate]

hey, straight diagonal then straight horizontal line

convenient

[quick slate]

What do people consider to be "good enough"?

atm my team comp prior to just getting suomi is groza, sharkry, cheeta, and my beginner pull of mosin-nagant

I suppose I'll guess. Anyway sorry to have bothered you, Thanks for making such a nice guide!

[split token]

sharkry and mosin are pretty solid

its more like having only nemesis as dps is kinda pain

theres another thread for teambuilding in the guides channel that you can ask about team comps there

[quick slate]

gotcha, thanks

[tranquil seal]

By the way, to give a tip here.
Nemesis on the very corner of the high ground platform during the boss fight has enough range to hit both the shrine that appears in the middle of the map and Sextants.
However, you need to break the shrine's stability first, then Nemesis can one-shot it with her Ult because double weakness to sniper ammo and poison.

You can use Ksenia or Nagant's Ults + Nemesis Prophecy to weaken the shrine's stability very hard.

[sharp pier]

good suggestion, I over leveled and brute forced it

LappDiemb

[tranquil seal]

Lol

[sharp pier]

spent like 5 refills, and farmed

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, having Vepley also shoot every turn + uncover boss more easily really helps more than having a deadweight

I-I mean my favourite character who totally didn't die turn 4, yes.

[split token]

yeah i figured i would rather do that instead of having to lvl nemesis more

[tranquil seal]

Also, seeing the video

[split token]

so i can have my full low investment team that only costs character and weapon exp

no stock bars and no helix

im going to swap out 7 if youre watching that one when yt stops giving me a cd

[tranquil seal]

If you wanted a more consistent approach I think you can do the exact same thing but do a Groza ult to make sure that the boss wasn't gonna do an opportunity attack before Nemesis moved for the ladder

[split token]

yeah i couldve check if boss close

or kb w vepley to be even safer

anyway the cheese removes so much rng

its so stupid

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, but it's a very good clear nontheless, and in any case as you said

You can just rewind back if necessary

I also did two rewinds on the last turn (for 3 star clear) just to land a Groza Ult at the boss while hidden

[split token]

i spent 2 rewinds to find location

anyway the better strat is to just end turn

[tranquil seal]

🤝

[split token]

since youll guarantee the location

and then you can rewind the previous turn

(the 2 rewinds i spent were during separate turns)

and then i spent the last at the end cause i was bored even though i was basically done w stage already

[surreal hazel]

When in doubt, Cheeta is a pretty effective counterattack healer if you pair her properly with Groza. It kepy my team alive long enough to blindly charge into the fight

[split token]

the cheese makes it so you dont get hit by boss

at all

once you have the setup and kill the adds

the clones and boss cant hit you

[split token]

tldr

[surreal hazel]

You only get 2 nades per turn though...

I hate invisibility...

[split token]

you can end turn and burn the rewind

or just sacrifice the turn

i cleared in 11/15 turns w cope so there should be a fair amount of leeway

[surreal hazel]

I take it that survivability is important to fight Sextan?

[sharp pier]

having suomi for sure helps but I think this is mostly just a check to destroy all the things sextan spawns

[split token]

yeah she places debuffs on your team that are only removed when you kill her spawns

and those debuffs hurt quite a bit

[surreal hazel]

Underlevelled fighting really sucks

[split token]

vepley is very good for knocking back the sprinklers

https://drive.google.com/file/d/15C2zmFy2NekQLEOpX4Q9X7NoTNUIelHs/view?usp=sharing

fucked up late turn but still did it first try

same thing as usually lv20 char, lv20 weap nothing else

god i shouldve used vepley for this stage earlier

yeah i uploaded it to drive cause 10 daily limit upload on yt and it was too large for streamable

no direct penalty

stat difference usually hurts tho

[tranquil seal]

Not really, you can make up for it with Helix Upgrades and Attachments

The difference is on the stats itself

Enemies will hit like 900 damage at some point at your lv 20 girls

And that's a 1 shot

[winged cave]

anyone have guide for this boss ?

[tranquil seal]

if I could make a video I would, because I beat them using Groza Team as well

[split token]

i did this for the boss

kinda scuffed cause i forgor the mechanics from when i played earlier

but still did first try

[tranquil seal]

me too

[split token]

groza movement down is nice for the onyx when you dont want to kill them yet since it stops them from ramming you

[tranquil seal]

can you tell me how you make videos?

Like the one you did

[split token]

middle sprinkler you ignore and let the other sprinklers spawn outside of the box so you can kb them w vepley

i record using obs

and then upload to yt/google drive/streamable

[tranquil seal]

Streamable is the one you use for like

[tranquil seal]

This?

[split token]

its for shorter clips usually

nah that was just a short recording

and then i converted to 480 so it wouldnt be too large

[split token]

heres 7 and hard 1 cause idk how long i have to wait for the yt cooldown

https://drive.google.com/file/d/166cytzG38-exhBIbXQ9DuHcBy6LKpYND/view?usp=sharing

ladders abuse my beloved

[tranquil seal]

I will be sending the video soon

[golden veldt]

over lvl 20

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, I only got helix enchantments up to lv 20

and also no double fixed key bonuses

But you could genuinely do the same thing I did but at lv 20

I promise you 100% it works

... video is processing ...

https://streamable.com/dxtepl

Ultimately the result is the same even at lv 20 trust me, you just move Colphne first for her support fire and use Suppression Fire with Groza over her ult against the filler enemies

[split token]

its a lot faster and a lot less close

why’d you kill the onyx early

free debuff cleanse later

[tranquil seal]

To also kill the stealth guy without risks

This also sets me up for next turn anyways

where i want Nemesis on the corner of the high platform

[split token]

yeah but then you have to struggle in killing the sprinkler instead which is 10 stability

instead of popping the onyx

[tranquil seal]

Did you see how Nemesis oneshots when it's out of stability?

[split token]

ye cause high ground but thats still a lot more shots

[tranquil seal]

All of you need is Groza's Suppression Fire + support fire from Colphne and Nemesis to take out the stability, then do Nemesis Ult

[split token]

onyx is just nemesis ult tho at most

maybe a bit more

ig theres not much else to do w actions but it seems like a waste to fully kill

whatever it works so good enough surely

[tranquil seal]

And keep in mind that like

I still take out the debuff you mentioned by killing the shrine

the one that Colphne got enemy turn 2 and cleansed ally turn 3 my bad

[split token]

honestly half of my grievances is just me coping because of how easy it looks when it took twice as long and 5x as scuffed and a total of two hrs for the lv20 clear of that

its fine it just looks so much easier

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, because Nemesis spot is amazing

With the right position Nemesis can hit both boss and spawning shrine

[split token]

nah she cant hit further shrine spawns

[tranquil seal]

and because Colphne is super healing basically every turn

[split token]

so it gets a bit rng

[tranquil seal]

No, those are chariots

[split token]

oh wait

[tranquil seal]

Shrines always spawn in the middle

[split token]

onyx

[tranquil seal]

Onyx can be taken out by Colphne approaching with base attack (or S1) and then Groza Suppression Fire + Colphne's Support fire

In worst case you have Krolik who reaches there, uses S2 and still applies burn to boss when she returns

Or again, you can just ignore them if they are that far away

That's basically what I would have done for 2 more turns

Since you have a very generous 12 turn limit you can keep that loop up for a while

futhermore, any stat difference that I had you can make up with attachments

since I did this with 0 attachments

[split token]

actually how is enemy defense calculated

cause lv20 felt a lot more miserable

like look at this

at 3:45 you do the same thing and 1 tap w/o even needing nemesis support

lv20 is just awful

[willow girder]

how do i scroll to this faster

[split token]

theres an arrow here

[willow girder]

im at phone, where is that button?

[split token]

...i dont know if there is one

[willow girder]

thanks anyway, at hard stage 2 now

[split token]

i wonder if moderators can pin the initial forum post as a pin

[split token]

it works

ty

[split token]

ye edited into pin already

gonna try and keep it in text format for ease of access

until the character limit bashes me over the head

no nitro moment

ty for trying to help tho cause i mistyped like 3 of them earlier and forgot one when one of the new stages opened too

[tranquil seal]

Admittedly I also have 2 Helix Levels

I mean like

the first two enchantments

Also Uh

hehe

How do you do the Google method?

[tranquil seal]

Did you not do Colphne Basic or S2 first?

It should be a kill like this

[split token]

3:45 you dont use anything else and you kill fine w colphne support and krolik skill 2 w/o even needing nemesis

whereas this dumps nemesis shot and doesnt even kill lmao

i tried applying the shelter stacks too to match it up closer but it hardly changed it

[tranquil seal]

[split token]

my current guess is that defense is flat

so its really punishing if youre underlvled

[tranquil seal]

Best I can say at that point

[split token]

since stat difference would hurt a lot

[tranquil seal]

is just stack all your attack

But it's not really that nice of a solution

Since I'm basically just saying to farm attachments at level 20

or when did you unlock them anyway

[split token]

23

...holy shit the stat difference now that im checking

[split token]

compared to

[tranquil seal]

WAIT

WHY DID YOU NOT

LIMIT BREAK THEM????

[split token]

groza and krolik have 1.5x less stats

because its cheap as fuck

[tranquil seal]

Just limit Break gives them a stat boost

[split token]

thats the point

super low investment

[tranquil seal]

Ah ...

[split token]

limit break makes the total stamina cost double or smth

4* cost to lv20
5224 char exp
4945 weap exp

[tranquil seal]

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NGkURKCTId2VC4d1DlnC1tMqoUbvBhmj/view?usp=sharing

By the way, tell me if it works

[split token]

~20 energy total for each * 8 = 160 energy

[tranquil seal]

Holy shit the quality

[split token]

stock bars is 1-2 per run * 20 so like (4/1.5)*4*20

which is 213 energy

[tranquil seal]

I'm so fucking tired I had to do this stage 3 times manually because the first 2 times OBS did not work

So I only I got this video with double audio for some reason

AND NOW IT LOOKS LIKE CRAP

[split token]

so it doing stock bars too would be smth like 2.33x the total stamina cost

that being said, lv20 no limit break is fine for the normal stages + hard 1 which is what really matters since hard mode ticket regen

yeah thats pretty pixelated lmao

[tranquil seal]

But yeah, that is me clearing UF-1-4 hard with groza team at lv 25

against lv 34 enemies

[split token]

honestly for those you should really just wait

no reward for clearing early

and theres still 3.5 weeks till event ends or smth

same for hazard patrol

[tranquil seal]

Assuming you put the same amount of investment I did into other, better units (2 Helix Upgrade, 1 Key, filled out attachments for each with At least 1 Calibrated Purple Piece of Attachment for each)

[split token]

and if you do want to clear early for the love of god use a friend support

[tranquil seal]

Then you can clear it at this level

[split token]

stage 5 will just be a dps check again lmao

[tranquil seal]

And like heh

[split token]

since the cheese still works

[tranquil seal]

you are right 100%

But this is cool

like, clearing it at this level

[split token]

yeah but if youre challenging yourself dont follow a guide smh my head

[golden veldt]

do it yourself and mald

[tranquil seal]

When you put it like that

[golden veldt]

[tranquil seal]

Yeah this might have been a waste of time

[split token]

ngl

i hardly knew the beginner kits before i did this

[golden veldt]

and now i am intimately aware of how much better my other units are now

[split token]

tolo qbz sharkry suomi doing hard sextans in 2-3 turns

instead of barely clearing on last turn, turn 12, on normal sextans

[raw valley]

what is best power for this (i always pick +1 charge when getting a item)

[split token]

hard modes are 2 debuffs instead

but tbh it doesnt matter a ton

[raw valley]

yea its not helping me too much lol

[split token]

unless youre really coping in which case you actually want to min max tiles for buffs

and get below the target tile count but as many buffs as possible

[raw valley]

how do i jump back up top top again?

[split token]

pins

i got holo to pin it

[raw valley]

nvm i got it

[split token]

if youre not on pc so you dont have the button

[raw valley]

yea i just swap to pc for it

[split token]

anyhow mobile pins work now too except its hidden in a couple menus

channel name -> settings -> pinned messages

[raw valley]

wait im commander lvl 20 am i too under leved for some stages or it ajust based on my levels?

[split token]

you can clear sojourners part I fine

which is the part that matters since you get 3 daily tickets for hard mode that you can spend on hard 1 because it has the same efficiency as the rest of the hard mode stages

the rest you can just come back when youre properly lvl'ed or overlvl'ed

for this week at least idk what next week looks like lol

[raw valley]

uh explane it a way i can understand lol

im kinda stupid

[split token]

theres 3 different sections in the event

that are unlocked for us currently

hazard patrol, wasteland impact, and sojourners - part I

the only one that has any urgency to clear is sojourners, because you get tickets daily that you can spend there

whereas the rest you can clear anytime during the event and not lose anything over time

because of these vouchers, you want to clear to hard 1 with full 3*s so you can auto the stage

hard 1 drops 560 event currency each time you clear or auto it

which is the exact same as the rest of the hard stages, ergo it is the same efficiency as the rest

[raw valley]

and its the same for other hard stages?

ahh ok

[split token]

yeah theyre all 560

[raw valley]

u smart

[split token]

the only difficult stages for the event are normal stages 7 and 10, and hard stage 1

but these can all be cheesed with ladder strats

[raw valley]

ladder strats?

[split token]

however, i would advise bringing a strong friend support since it makes it a lot easier

[tranquil seal]

I don't even remember what I did for stage Hard 1

I remember taking stage 3 hard very slowly but also little risks

It is much easier to do than hard 2 while underleveled

[split token]

it has to do with positioning: melee units cannot hit enemies on top of a ladder and they cant climb it either if youre blocking the top, so you can ensure they cant hit you at all

the boss is that plus a teleport which you can also block because its completely deterministic, being nearest tile of lowest hp unit

[raw valley]

all boss are melee??

[split token]

so you can force the boss to teleport to the lower elevation and miss you entirely

nah just this one

[raw valley]

for hard 1?

[tranquil seal]

No, for Normal 10

[raw valley]

oh

[tranquil seal]

And Hard 5 I think

[split token]

stage 7: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zuiVBDdirh3U6HjZ9mzMU0x9Cr4YKZrS/view?usp=sharing
stage 10: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf1AVKIn39yrwjEwPYUb2-N-_42p2GtD3&si=PseXjlMEwFZx6pXB
hard 1: https://drive.google.com/file/d/166cytzG38-exhBIbXQ9DuHcBy6LKpYND/view?usp=sharing

[raw valley]

damn thats alot of info

[split token]

normal 7, 10, and hard 5 all have the boss

the videos are things you can generally do but theres some rng so you might have to adjust and rewind and whatnot

highly recommend bringing a stacked qbz or smth to make them easier

[raw valley]

so i just sit ontop of ladder and just shoot them until they die?

[split token]

actually, a good suomi makes it so you can infinite tank ive heard too?

[raw valley]

qbz?

[split token]

uhh a bit more complicated than that

qiongjyu

gfl1 name and weap she uses is qbz191

[tranquil seal]

Yeah, we should probably

Just use the GFL2 name

[split token]

muh 4.5 years in gfl1

how will i be able to talk about killing snytos w her again

[raw valley]

oh i have her, got her from starter banner

[tranquil seal]

Very nice

[split token]

you can use your own but id still recommend bringing a friend support of her or someone else since the levels make a massive difference

i have a lvl37 friend and their dps is miles ahead of me

[raw valley]

damn i have no friends

[golden veldt]

go search in #👥friend-id-en

[raw valley]

wait where do i add friends

nvm fround it

[sharp pier]

Not sure about infinite, but it for sure gives you so much more time compared to someone like cheeta for example

[restive minnow]

Hey question Is there an archive of this event that I can go back in game and read through the story at a later date? I want to rush through it but if I can't go back and read the story.. then I guess I'm at a lost here

[split token]

theres a past events tab that it might get added to

[tropic fractal]

What should i be picking?

[split token]

max exploration charge is pretty useless

since you dont have to pick up charge immediately and if you know the coordinates, the charge doesnt matter much

[golden veldt]

i dont rember the other ones and when i launch the game im in the middle of a peak value assessment, wait a bit

[tropic fractal]

Tyt

[split token]

dangerous item or are we there yet for the second id say

[tropic fractal]

Alright thank you very much

[quick slate]

with Hard 2's boss, have you guys found it easier to go up along the high ground, through the center, or split? I sent two down each earlier and go annihilated

[split token]

bottom area gives you more range on adds but youre more exposed, if you have a good healer you can get away w it

top has less range and cant hit far away spawned onyx’s but you actually have cover

some other things is that movement down II makes it so onyx’s cannot move that turn and its nice for delaying them to kill later if you dont have any damage over time debuffs

and that if you dont kill the middle sprinkler, the new sprinklers get spawned outside the concrete barrier, making them a lot easier to kill with vepley/lotta knockback

movement down II is vepley and groza off the top of my head

[quick slate]

much appreciated, I made it work with 2 action support/heals and groza charging along the bottom and mosin along the top

🙏

partially just rng that mosin didn't get a stack of Devastation that lasted more than a turn lmao, but I'll take it

[alpine gulch]

Thanks for the guide!

How do you clear hazard protocol normal 2? The boss sextans is hard to kill!

[split token]

basically starting from are some strats

vepley is pretty good for this

20% vuln nade, knockback for sprinklers, and movement down II

example clear: https://drive.google.com/file/d/15C2zmFy2NekQLEOpX4Q9X7NoTNUIelHs/view?usp=sharing

maybe i should upload to yt like the rest

kinda fumbled late turn and didnt abuse the move 5 tiles for movement down 2 because i forgor about it

but smth like that works

also, hazard patrol doesnt have any rewards tied to time, so you can come back when you have better characters to clear it

that clear was done with minimum investment

only character and weapon exp

i also didnt pick up many buffs from the exploration bit

fwiw lv20 has serious dps issues

lv25 has 1.5x the atk stat

[willow oak]

I just clear lvl 10 boss with a borrows

[split token]

yeah friend supports are very good for sojourners part I

cant use in hazard patrol tho

so you need to use your own units

[willow oak]

Also, do i farm the event stages?

For more points?

I havent been farming them and just farm hard stages

With the tix

[willow oak]

This one is quite hard, maybe im bringing the " wrong" units
I brought vepley, qj, nemesis, and groza

[split token]

hard 1 is all you need for the highest efficiency

since theyre all 560 per auto

[split token]

might want to bring sustain

[willow oak]

So i dont need to auto the normal stages?

[split token]

healer or suomi or smth

[split token]

you can only use the vouchers on hard stages no?

yeah hard only

[willow oak]

Nono i mean just redo the battle on normal

[willow oak]

I am using the tix daily to farm hard stages

[split token]

you can go back and do them but theres no reason to unless youre missing the objectives

assuming youre talking about sojourners and not hazard patrol

[willow oak]

It doesnt gives event point?

[willow oak]

Yeap

[split token]

once you clear all of normal with all objectives, theres no reason to touch again

for sojourners

[willow oak]

I seee, alright thanks

[willow oak]

Alright thanks

[spring hollow]

I an getting my ass kick when doing your cheese strat

[split token]

do you have the positioning right

shouldnt be taking damage after the setup

i moved the dolls next to the lowest hp doll a couple times for more dps, but if you want to be safe you shouldnt move them

since the clone can occupy the tile at the bottom of the ladder and then the boss teleports up if theres an open tile

[spring hollow]

Some the boss keep teleporting when i block the ladder

[split token]

this should be the setup

assuming youre on stage 10

check your hp values too, since it counts current hp not max

also its the value not percentage of hp left

[spring hollow]

got it thanks

[quick slate]

btw your coordinates for stage 5 are 1 too high on the y values

there's no 6th row

[split token]

gdi its 6,4

[golden veldt]

how do i keep typing them wrong

[sly glen]

any one got unlocked map of diff stages of hazard patrol which shows eveything at the end?

[split token]

wdym

like the stages we dont have yet?

[sly glen]

no i mean ss of tiles right before we fight boss or go to next lvl so all tiles are visible

[split token]

only the area locator and boss locations arent randomized

so not really any point

[sly glen]

huh i think they arent randomized tho, i used a vid for 2nd chap, had to redo it and all tiles were on same place even the med for heals

[golden veldt]

[split token]

pretty sure ive seen enemy locations in random spots

maybe the enemies are variable with empty tiles

and the items arent

[fallen linden]

im gonna check now i think they aren't randomised

[sly glen]

i have done more than 2 times for that stage, it was on same tiles all times, i was trying to auto, then lvled up and autoed again then realized u have to do manually, maybe on hard move its randomized, but they were same, no way they would be randomized and i still get same as vid 3 times

[golden veldt]

sounds like a lot of effort to compile all screenshots because youd have to either dodge enemy tiles and label them or open them last or overlay them as a separate image

[sly glen]

once u know the enemy tiles, u can just do it pretty fast as u dont care about hp if only doing for ss XD

[split token]

true opening last sounds easiest

[fallen linden]

oh yeah it is the same

[sly glen]

where are the enemy for 3rd stage? on pinned i only saw boss ones

[split token]

pretty sure i dont have the word count to add that many characters in

could fill out a sheet or something but that sounds like a lot of effort

[sly glen]

just enemy position would help a lot as u can do 2 times, take ss for urself for buffs for 2nd run

[fallen linden]

yeah it seems like a bit of a ballache im debating doing it now tho hmm

[split token]

if someone else does it i can get holo to pin it

[fallen linden]

cus this last normal map i think you get more value from interacting more with the buffs you can collect

as in the fights are ramping up a lil in difficulty ehe

buffs seem to be random

would i just use imgur? and pop the links on a list and give a bit of context or something? never really done a big guide thingy before lol

[split token]

yeah imgur is probably best

could put it on a sheet or docs or slides too ig

since itll all be complied together then w/o having to make new ones when more stages are unlocked

[fallen linden]

ah yeah that makes sense

[sly glen]

normal 3
floor 1: key (6,1), enemy (1,1) (3,2) (6,4)
floor 2: boss (3,2) enemy (2,3) (5,1) (5,4)

[split token]

...a friend has told me they have screenshots of the maps to optimize the routes

[fallen linden]

WHEW i was literally just about to start

[split token]

lmao

[fallen linden]

thanks for the save ahaha

[golden veldt]

as long as the work is outsourced to someone else so i dont have to and it gets done i dont really care who does it

[split token]

hmm should i separate hazard patrol or sojourners part I into another pin

actually running out of message count

i want to say sojourners cause its a 1 time clear

[fallen linden]

yeah probably since they're both technically different game modes

[golden veldt]

pull my gfen connections and force holo to pin it again

[fallen linden]

[split token]

Sojourners - Part I
doable at lvl20, video playlist of clears normal 1 to 10 and hard 1: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf1AVKIn39yrwjEwPYUb2-N-_42p2GtD3&si=PseXjlMEwFZx6pXB
1-6 and 8-9 autoable, 7 and 10 are the boss stages which are actually difficult, in addition to hard stage 1. Highly recommend using friend dps or suomi to those stages significantly easier to beat if youre struggling
Used lv20 no neural expansion groza, nemesis, krolik, colphne with their free sr weaps at lv20, vep instead of krolik stage 10

You get 3 hard mode tix a day at a cap of 6 tix, and you need to clear all 10 normal stages to unlock hard, so rushing to get to hard advised. All hard mode stages have the same efficiency of 560 event currency per ticket so only hard stage 1 needs to be cleared and then you can auto with tickets. Friend support is allowed during this portion of this event so you can abuse them

[sly glen]

thnx a lot

[split token]

hmm i hope the sheet looks fine on mobile

thats annoying

its too large if on mobile but too small on pc if i shrink it

[sly glen]

works fine on mobile, i am using chrome

[split token]

ah

surely it works fine for all people on mobile

[golden veldt]

[split token]

ty mr holo

[fallen linden]

my tism is enjoying pissing about with google slides maybe ill make one anyway aha

[split token]

alright i made more mobile friendly sheets

[copper wigeon]

normal 5 2nd floor is (3,5)

[split token]

i throw

[golden veldt]

keep thinking its a 6 by 6 axis i think

[split token]

ty

good enough surely until the next map releases in an hr

[split token]

Event Guide: Hazard Patrol (maps on sheet), Wasteland Impact, Sojourners - Part 1

[golden veldt]

surely people will look at the sheet and my 15 minutes of hard work wont go to nothing

[split token]

dammit the link doesnt copy

have to manually input

i will do upcoming maps like this so itll take a bit more time to post because i have to find all enemy locations and redo like 5 times

but the enemies and items wont have check marks and will be more visible

ok time for me to actually clear it myself

ok the number of tabs is kinda annoying

maybe i should just make it vertical

and link each map cell

this is a dumb amount of optimizations just to make the sheet easier to use

[fallen linden]

thats the fun part

[golden veldt]

i did hard in a different format and i dont want to redo normal in the same format

[split token]

forgor that hard maps were 3 images wide and paid for it

surely everyone on pc can use the links

anyhow i have now spent an uncomfortably long time on the sheet so i wont touch unless theres an issue

and when maps update 5 hrs before and at server reset ofc

actually hmm how much time would it take for me to convert normal to hard

prob like 15 min

[split token]

alright surely im done now

[elfin pebble]

hard 3

[split token]

already on the sheet

also i redo the maps so i can pick the enemies last

so theyre highlighted better

in particular, its smth like pick enemies last -> take screenshot -> pick up items -> go to next floor

so they wont be grayed out and will be more visible

[golden veldt]

at least, thats what i did for hard 3

[split token]

ones before that were from ender so i couldnt be bothered

hmm but it should be a ~30 min fix or so...

i could...

sure wynaut

time to waste more time on le sheet

damn its impossible to show all 3 w/o killing 1

[brazen cape]

@split token hi would it be possible to make a video on gold stage 3 on your youtube....?

[solemn harness]

uhm i think map 3 hard is wrong the last floor is (6 , 6)

[split token]

i dont really want to do hazard patrol or hard stages cause 1) theyre significantly harder and dont have readily available cheeses like the ladder cheese 2) theres no punishment whatsoever to doing them later when youre overlvled since theres nothing time related to them like the hard mode tickets that regen at 3 a day

[split token]

the grids are 6 by 5

actually what do you mean by gold stage 3, do you mean the gold stage at lv33?

prob smth like lotta for aoe and qbz for bossing if its what i think it is

i could be mixing up w 38 tho

[golden veldt]

that being said i dont have it unlocked on my main yet

[split token]

only cbt memories

will have it unlocked tmr tho

[solemn harness]

my mistake, sorry for bothering you

[brazen cape]

standardizing sync mode, stage 3. then one with 2 entries per day, seems like i cant make a max score...

[split token]

can also bring a whale friend

or overlvled friend

ill record tmr when i have it unlocked

[brazen cape]

im able to one shot them, guess i just dont have any aoe units, coz hitting each is taking too long

[split token]

lotta or vepley is probably the ideal aoe

since they can continuously ult

since vepley gets confectance for every enemy she hits and lotta can extra action from ult into skill 2 to max confectance again

groza also can stack ults but her damage is prob too low and range is also lower

lotta skill 1 also aoe i suppose

[brazen cape]

ok ill try lotta once i unlock her. also any chance you have a weekly boss guide? 🙏🏻

[split token]

weekly boss w/o qbz/sharkry/tolo is prob pain tbh

esp since its only your units

i could record boss 3 but itll be w pretty stacked units

smth like qbz v1 w weap, tolo, sharkry, suomi

[solemn harness]

my team is Qionjiu, Suomi, Sharyky, Ksenia is a good comp ?

[split token]

depends on the map

suomi makes it so you can take out ksenia a lot of the time for more dps over sustain

but longer maps ksenia is also nice

[brazen cape]

that woul dbe helpful, just need to know whats the aim or what to do to get enough score

[split token]

ok but i also want to do it tmr because i can actually dump my 10+ keys on attachments then

[golden veldt]

are you ok with waiting till the last day of boss weekly reset

[solemn harness]

I'm already on the 3rd floor so whatever

[brazen cape]

im actually waiting till last hour i can so i cacn squeeze out as much upgrades i can, but yeah this is when it ends for us...

[solemn harness]

my team kinda weak at recover stability at weekly boss @@

[split token]

math says that ill hit 33 from dailies from tmr so ill record at reset after filling out the hazard patrol maps

[brazen cape]

ok ty, will be waiting for them

[tough jolt]

excellent gsheet

[golden veldt]

ty

[quick slate]

is there any good strat for normal 6? the boss is healing about as fast as I can hurt it

[split token]

the boss keeps healing until you break stability

and then it swaps modes to offensive mode

boss passive reduces stability damage it takes excluding weaknesses so you want to bring in characters that its weak to

eg suomi, spas, tolo

[quick slate]

I've got a mosin, that's electric and pierce right

[split token]

ye

[quick slate]

ok well I'll keep trying with this fight, if I screw up I'll bring Lotta next time

thanks

also will adds keep spawning constantly?

in offense mode, that is

[split token]

i think so?

lemme break and check again

[quick slate]

no prob, I'll find out pretty soon myself hopefully

[split token]

nah no more add spawning

[quick slate]

oh cool, that's good

[split token]

if you have suomi you can definitely out sustain

assuming you arent way too underlvled

https://youtu.be/WXne6YqMD68

lv30 team

my sharkry is pretty scuffed lmao

that atk stat tho

also threw late turns cause i figured i could just dps down so i let ksenia die

any properly built dps should make 2nd half a lot easier

unfortunately my qbz and tolo stole all priority equips

tldr is you can definitely out sustain w a healer and suomi

prob shouldve focused on breaking faster so i couldve done more dmg rather than wait through like 6 turns of it healing

[golden veldt]

cant wait to go through 18 keys of stamina in 3 hrs for actual attachments

[surreal hazel]

Pain...

Hard 4 seems all but impossible with a underlevelled team

[split token]

we're still week 1 of event so you have plenty of time

[quick slate]

I got it to offense mode and then got wiped. Maybe I'm just not playing well enough, but it wouldn't hurt to wait a little and get the team above 26-28, I guess

[split token]

yeah thats probably underleveled

[sharp pier]

UF 1 5 hard

alhumdulilah

how do you guys even try to reveal the mist that the creepy doll goes into btw

[split token]

guess some nades and if you dont get it, end turn, and then rewind after seeing where she was

im not going to bother recording stages above hard 1 cause theres no urgency to clear them since all hard modes are the same efficiency

also friend supports make it so much easier

he says as though he didnt get bored enough to record multiple hazard patrols for fun

anyhow theres also a cheese for the boss fights that turns the fight into a dps check because you wont get hit by the boss at all

[split token]

this thing

apparently someone else actually found it out before me but i didnt even realize it

funny how gfl makes you want to clear clogs but gfl2 and rc encourage clogging

[split token]

https://youtu.be/gj06Q1ZEoyM

im not sure this example helps anyone

its kinda a rich soln to have both lotta and vepley

in addition to qbz and tolo

[golden veldt]

i dont think the bossing will be much better

[split token]

umm yeah i killed boss 3 turn 3

just like gold 3

[golden veldt]

[split token]

https://youtu.be/VScTnCI2H84

[split token]

anyway for gold id probably do only lotta if i didnt have both and send 1 dps + 1 support/dps left and 1 dps right w lotta

and keep single target enemies alive so i could get lotta to places with better grouping before killing them and spawning the whole wave while lotta has her ult

so like keeping the wave 2 elite alive till lotta gets to the left side

boss... you kinda have to tank hits

bc you really dont want the boss to get the armor

and it always attacks closest and furthest ally as well

[solemn harness]

It's mean you have to 1 colsest, 1 furthest and 1 tank package

[brazen cape]

@split token you know if next tier bosses are any different? or waiting till last day 👀

[split token]

tier 6 boss is bosses

lv40 and lv45

need two teams

[brazen cape]

thats....unfortunate

[split token]

yeah idk if ill get my second team put together by the end of the week

thinking smth like
tolo nemesis ksenia mp7/col
qbz sharkry groza suomi

[brazen cape]

so just call it after tier 5?

[split token]

yeah you can auto instead of doing t6

should give you rewards of tier 5

[brazen cape]

gotcha, coz im sure as hell out of stamina to farm for more chars to 35+ 😂

[split token]

only really the dps need to be at 35

but yeah its pretty rough

[brazen cape]

im guessing its not really worth it to split the resources too no? or is there any other content that needs 2nd team atm?

[split token]

boss fight and guild boss fight are the only ones that require multiple teams iirc

[brazen cape]

hmm, ok ty, ill keep this in mind in case i wanna raise the units to try it out, if i lose the fight the ticket goes to waste?

[split token]

nah

you can exit the stage and it spends nothing

as long as you dont confirm the fight at the end it wont spend it

[brazen cape]

🫡

@split token are units like lotta and sabrina not good for this coz they're more aoe? already have them built so was wondering... also i did not pull ksenia yet somehow any other ones for replace?

[split token]

yeah they arent great

sabrina can help bc the counter procs certain atks like qbz but lotta is near useless

[split token]

yeah ok i can survive all turns, the dps is the issue tho

42k total

[brazen cape]

wait we just need to survive?

[split token]

no, but its pretty important for getting pts

you get points as you do damage

so ideally you want to live all turns to maximize points

if not kill the boss before those turns end

[pine gust]

Any tips for hp 6 norm? Can’t get pass boss healin

[split token]

once you break boss, it swaps modes and stops healing

the boss passive reduces the amount of stability damage it takes though

so you need to use the things its weak to since that isnt reduced by the passive

[quick slate]

I just cleared hazard patrol 6 (and 7 a few minutes after). Why is 7 so easy… it feels wrong

[split token]

i cant tell you because i auto’ed it so i have no clue what the mechanic is

[tropic fractal]

is there a strat for hazrad patrol 6 hard? i cant get past its regen.

[willow oak]

Yeah me too

I cant seems to deal with the flareberus?

I am using qj, groza, sharkry and ksenia

[warm hollow]

Break the armor asap cuz it healed as long as the stability is up

Lotta actually quite useful to deal with reinforcement

[willow oak]

Ahhhh allright, thanks

[willow oak]

And i assume so does vepley?

She also works to deal with the small bots?

[warm hollow]

I dont use her but ig she can

[warm hollow]

^

[wicked gull]

did anyone try the Hard 6 yet?

[spare mantle]

yea

[wicked gull]

so still same old tatic, kill robot mob and burst boss's shield right?

[spare mantle]

i killed the melee dudes first but ignored his summons until after i broke his stability

[wicked gull]

hmm, i saw that he can absorb his robot mob to raise back stability tho

[spare mantle]

i broke him before he could so i guess?

[wicked gull]

nvm beat it

[sly glen]

do u just attack boss and ignore the ads? seems those ads keep spawning

[wicked gull]

I kill the first wave plus 2 melee guys at front, and then destroy boss armor

from then just keep bursting boss, ignore everything else

[sly glen]

do u keep moving to chnage postion or just camp at one place?

[wicked gull]

i don't go over the 2 containers line

just ignore the sniper from afar

[sly glen]

i hardly did any dmg, it killed all my team, what lvl char do u need for this?

[wicked gull]

I'm currently 35, but yeh, can see that DPS may need a certain threshold

[split token]

i likely will be busy over the next few weeks so wont be able to answer questions, ping me if i didnt smth wrong on the sheet or pins or smth

[golden veldt]

finals soon

[split token]

ok i cleared boss 6

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLf1AVKIn39yrR6mNCl1YtnjsZZ79DTxVn&si=qZINO9JFRtc1drQh/

[golden veldt]

f2p btw

[surreal hazel]

Would Suomi, Vepley, Petriya and Cheeta work? I'm hoping that the support actions would cut down the adds before they can melt the rest of the team so I can focus on the boss

[split token]

not sure you have enough single target dps

[surreal hazel]

Hmmm... I attempted it before with Col, Nemesis, Groza and Cheeta, but I kept getting wiped cause I couldn't take out the mobs fast enough

[wicked gull]

Yeah quite a bit lacking with single target dps there. Well event is quite long so I guess you can leveling them more and try again

[surreal hazel]

I... I can't believe that worked

Everyone wiped except for Nemesis, and somehow she's has the indestructible full cover for 2 tiles between her and the boss, and I manage to survive for 3 turns because it's stuck pounding the ground

[bitter magnet]

level 7 hard

[wicked gull]

boss Hard lv7 is nothing compare to lv.6 lol

[summer halo]

the problem wit lv6 boss is it heals too much lol

like 20% of its max hp is crazy

[split token]

once you break it stops healing

its just kinda painful bc of how much dmg it does and the adds after that

[summer halo]

and its summons are annoying af

[upper jewel]

anyone got the layout for level 6 hard?

[wicked gull]

yeah, the only problem with lv6 is massive heal and beefy armor

[split token]

initial post (which is also pinned) has the sheet w all the maps on it

[upper jewel]

bruh the Flareberus is so annoying

any tips on killing this piece of junk?

or is it legit a DPS check boss

[split token]

once you break it stops spawning adds and healing

and goes into offensive mode or smth

[upper jewel]

the problem is getting there though

it spawns mech every other turns

and the armour is thick af

i probably shouldnt bring Lotto

i thought she would help dealing with the mobs with her AoE

[surreal hazel]

And then proceeds to disintegrate your squad...

Any tips on survivability? Or is it just level up and get a good Suomi?

[wicked gull]

did you push forward btw?

[split token]

you can live if you sit on the edges of the map

in that the boss doesnt stomp you if youre here or so

[surreal hazel]

No, I actually hung back and had Nemesis at the top of the circle in red for the last desperate push.

...I don't look forward to Hard

[split token]

https://youtu.be/tu3LFD0CtAo

example hard vod

its kinda scuffed

but then again so is how raised the units are

[split token]

uhm

yeah i dont think so

[summer halo]

For lv6 i use krolik, groza, suomi, sharkry maybe try that?

[split token]

nah thats overkill

point is to make guides for poor people

suomi is stupidly good and i wish everyone had her but alas they do not

[summer halo]

At the same time i think most players out here gonna pull for suomi, and i recommend this team based on that assumption

If then replace suomi for colphne for heal maybe?

[split token]

eh old guide works fine

if i didnt mess up late turn wouldve been even cleaner

since no stech death

anyway ironside is awful w/o good dps or suomi

so if anything id make an exception for itd be that

[surreal hazel]

Is subbing Ulrid for Krolik, and Cheeta for Sharky workable?

[split token]

i did this with nemesis cheeta ksenia lotta

all pretty poor on neural helix and equipment

[summer halo]

u can try and see, the point is u need to break the boss stability index asap\

[winged cave]

shit high rank 6 today kinda hard

[split token]

i added sheets for flareberus and ironside mechanics and strategy to the sheet earlier today

theres also an example vod

[golden veldt]

theyre both kinda scuffed tho

[split token]

me when my lv35 nemesis w key 1 and scuffed phase strike doesnt do well as the only dps when mobbing and killing boss

wait no shes only lv30 and her weap is 35

[restive minnow]

lvl 36 and you're F2P? How if I may ask. I haven't used my Stamina tickets yet and once I hit lvl 26, the EXP drasticly slowed down to progress content and lvl up. I Will edit this with screen shots of my lvl and tickets, I just don't think I have enough tickets to power lvl my self to 36 and I know i'm 2days late on this reply. THIS IS A EDIT OF THIS POST FOR FUTURE READERS I WAS LVL 30 AT THE TIME OF TYPING THIS. Sorry

[surreal hazel]

So, from what I'm getting from the sheet, the fire doggo depends on us busting down the mobs before they can kill us, and for Ironside, it's finding a poor Doll to take the attacks to the face since the AoE is the whole field.

What kind of enemy gets that horrible type of attack? Multiple times a turn?!?

[warm hollow]

If you play on day 1 and grinded the game consistently since then you should be lv 36 by now

[restive minnow]

I did start on day one. Maybe I didn't spend all my stamina or something.. I dunno I played till I couldn't anymore since then if i remember correctly and and I misspoke, I'm lvl 30 but I don't think I have enough to push myself to lvl 36 though. The only thing I bought was that starter pack to get extra Gems for 30 days. It doesn't give stamina. Maybe I'm on the track to become 36 if I spent my stamina tickets. So you are right, I would think.

[warm hollow]

U still have plenty of key tho

that is prob why

i only have 9 atm

[wicked gull]

yeah, don't save them tbh

you want LEVEL

[warm hollow]

save a bunch tbf

you also have to spend just so you can catch up to the event

[wicked gull]

with rushed event pace like this, you either want to fast leveling to progress or struggling at start, but i guess it's personal choice

idk about future event but this event, stamina does nothing, only first clear and Hard stage give you event currency to buy

so level matter more

[restive minnow]

https://tenor.com/view/sorry-im-sorry-sad-tears-cry-gif-25812284

Yeah I haven't used them yet, it's why I saying I don't think I have enough stamina tickets to boost myself to lvl 36.. but maybe I do. I was still thinking I was lvl 26....

[warm hollow]

Also you have quite a lot of gifts and cards

you would wanna get your dispatch lv higher

for me personally id try to get efficient as fast as i can but also don’t wanna fumbled my resources

im also lv 36 and f2p so ye

You would also want lv for challenge 2 in the event

I mean we alr have lv 42 creepy doll in challenge 1 so who knows the lv for the boss in challenge 2

[restive minnow]

Ya you are right. I do have a lot and I also try to save because "1. I don't want to waste resources without knowing what I should do with them, correctly of course. 2. Being F2P I want to stretch as much of said resources without wasting"

[warm hollow]

I understand that

I mean we f2p have that mindset

[restive minnow]

lol same 2 points just doubling down haha

[warm hollow]

but also we should know when to spend as well

we still have time for event tho

so no need to rush or anything

[restive minnow]

Yeah that is true. I should look to see if there is guide to spending resources in the discord

[warm hollow]

spend and leave some just in case

that is what i do

[warm hollow]

for gifts just spend them on affinity

get the dispatch lv up

it does not cost you anything tbf

unless ur saving to covenant ur fav doll

[restive minnow]

I will do this today, maybe get them to lvl 2 at the least to expand dispatch

[restive minnow]

Eh I don't really have a favorite per say, I just enjoy turn based games. Never played GFL1, so this is all new to me.

The "Targeted Study gives 30exp per fight" I feel like this is the fastest way to increase my lvl currently, but wouldn't it be better to lvl up farming the "Stock Bars to break lvl caps" ?

[warm hollow]

Just farm enough to uncap ur main dolls

then you could grind neural helix thingy

[restive minnow]

Yeah, I'll do that. That does seem to be the best. I do have 4 main dolls, and 2 side dolls for boss fights.

[warm hollow]

lv 33 is where you do attachments grind ( Or targeted study if you wanna put it that way )

[restive minnow]

hmm thats just 2 lvls away from me.

K well thanks for the advice, I'll work on getting my dolls to lvl 2 today for the dispatch and see how much that unlocks and burn through my stamina tickets to get as high lvl as I can.

[warm hollow]

Just don’t deplete your entire resources

leave some and you should be fine

[restive minnow]

Right. I think my Keys / stamina tickets should be ok to burn, as long as I get the proper stuff to lvl up my dolls and increase my commaner lvl to 36.

[split token]

the main ways to get exp are first time story clear exp from chapters 1-6, dailies for 300 exp a day, and spending stamina for 1 exp per stamina spent

youre currently locked out of the second half of chapter 5 till lvl27 iirc so youre missing around 600 exp from that, another 600 for the lv29 timegate, and another 600 for the second half of ch6 timegate at lv31

ive spent all my keys too as mentioned earlier so 32 keys totals to 32*60 stamina for 1920 exp

you also might be missing additional keys from places like lv1 affection giving you 1 key, end of chapter stages being 3 keys iirc so another 6 from that, and sojourner event giving keys (normal end of stage clears for part I and part II are 3 keys each iirc and theres probably more places to get them from there)

technically speaking the most efficient way to spend stamina is neural helix materials since we dont get better rates for them, but you also get enough from first time clears to raise a first team except for some of the later helix mats, which is all that is needed for most content, w/ tier 6+ boss rush and guild fight being the exception, so you could hold off on farming for those until lv30 and lv35

then again IVs are pretty low for how many you get iirc

you can save keys because dailies are 300 exp but on the other hand theres also rewards youre missing out on for clearing

being expansion drills, pva, and boss rush mainly

hard mode tickets of event that regen at 3 per day is fairly fine since you can clear w/ friend support, i know i did part I at lv26 w/ a lv36 friend support

but yeah a lot of it is how actively you want to grind for rewards and how far you think that stamina will get you now vs later

[split token]

yeah flarebarus is actually fairly easy to tank once you get rid of the summons and ironside is just reading how the aoe mechanic works

that being said, ironside is unironically worse if you cant burst down with dps

[golden veldt]

the stupid amounts of aoe damage and 20% max hp shields every other turn

[restive minnow]

Right. I'm currently lvl 32 now, only farming what I need to break lvl caps on 4 dolls to get lvl 40 once I reach that point. Going to also raise the dispatch lvl, so maybe getting a few dolls to lvl 2 and see how much that unlocks to get more per day in there. Event stuff I'm also farming as well. So I'm probably closer to lvl 36 than I actually thought once I use my keys

[surreal hazel]

I really don't want to burn my keys yet either... mostly cause I have no idea which supplies I'll need the most

[restive minnow]

Well the story only goes soo far, I'v completed the story now at lvl 32. I still have a lot of keys left, Also took all my dolls up to lvl 2 affinity for the dispatch upgrades. Only thing left for me to do is, farm Helix upgrades and or Finish off the event and try to get as far as I can in there.

Higher lvl you are is obviously going to help to do said content when it's the event ect, but It also means that without any story stuff releated for a huge boost to EXP, you'll forced to burn a LOT of keys to reach higher lvl.. If you can do the content that is at hand, try to do it and only lvl if you start struggling and can't beat content. After the advice I got from earlier and doing a bit more research this the terms I come too.

[summer halo]

U did ALL the main stories? They are the best exp income rn

[split token]

as said, its impossible for them to have done all of them

[split token]

since levelgated at lv27, 29, and 31

[surreal hazel]

They're all out man... we're all out...

Sadge

[restive minnow]

The current story that is in the game yest it is done. We only have 6 chapters or is this not correct

now.. I'ma have to double check..

[summer halo]

im currently lv36 and i literally burn every single stamina key i got to reach that so

[restive minnow]

Yes as of this msg, the current story which gives you the most EXP when you clear is done with only 6 chapters. lvl 32. To continue the hard mode of it, I need to get to lvl 35 for Chapter 3 Hard... But these don't give EXP.

[summer halo]

hard levels aint givin no exp bro u have to burn stamina unless u decided to save them

imo them keys u gonna get alot in the future so it shub be fine if u just use them to pregress faster

*progress

the sooner u reach to the end game contents the better

[restive minnow]

Right, that's what I said. Hard doesn't give EXP. I did save my keys as well. After todays talk I'm sure I prob can reach lvl 36 if I used them all to lvl.. but I'm on the edge of the seat in saying this.. To get to lvl 36 Is going to take nearly all of them, so I try to beat the current stuff thats in the game before using them to lvl up.

[summer halo]

aight at the end of the day its ur account

its on u to take your time or rush all the way

[restive minnow]

This way, for some odd reason as a F2P I'll have a reserve just in case no story stuff comes out soon.

[restive minnow]

Yeah I don't disagree with you, It would be easier to beat the content that is reamining for me to do if I just lvled up. But it's like having Soumi v2 yeah.. she allows you to beat stuff "If the rumors are true" 10 lvls higher than your lvl.. hence if I can beat the current stuff I have at lower lvl and just save my EXP in case no story content comes out, I can still power lvl up and see whats coming next month.

I should also edit that post from earlier today, later on I said I mis-spoke and that I was lvl 30 at the time of writing that, I was some how thinking I was still lvl 26. Thats my bad.

^ this. I also laughed too at this.
