concerned
We need a new SW emote
i need for SU to realize surface content is gonna EoS
Design will be 200% more beautiful without those furry ears 
you fool, the nekomimi stay 
Me: I'm snek food.
The snake:
They're changing the focus, don't worry 

oh? on what 
On how the mode is approached
really... why am I getting a bad feeling regardless... 
@tulip quest could you send me 5 teams of your bracket champ? Thank you. 
Whenever you have time online and have the game open.
bit of a resemblance but perlica has no tails
So Arknight regressed in style
leona
Animal humans have no tail. ๐ : ๐คฎ

nekomimi banzai uh 
i need to re-read all of arknight races
kinda forgot what each is called
even pvp channel became arknights
lazy
time to join us and become a factory man
supplychains and sh*et
already there
and it looks ike i don't need to engage with the gacha at all to enjoy the factorio part of the game so that's a big w for me
they're being awfully kind in resources tbh
This is Arknight? I guess they game would make more money because it's Genshin like but I don't see the appeal of the original.
pity is also pretty decent
but OG arknight was also generous
lots of freebie units too
Except the longggggg grind
i never played og arknights and i don't care abotu any of the characters or story
i heard "factorio" and my brain went ok me like
The appeal of Arknight isn't the character but the style. Which I don't find in this screenshot.
Idk how music is like in this new game but OG Arknight music have always been good.
To the point that the players asked if Arknight is a game company or a music company. 
it's decent
battle themes are pretty good, environment music is well done
it's still there, the dark corners of the game are staying 
But TBF, the main points that lost the appeal of the game to me was that they said all characters in Arknight died to ogirinium disease so none alive in this new game.
It both make this game irrelevant and the struggle of the characters in the original game pointless.
I rather they didn't make this game and gave out this bs lore.
uh not sure about that, there are returning characters in endfield, like sutr, albeit with a different name
The dev is just bad at making up story. All their braincell used to making music it seems
oh nvm just read about it
"Surtr is the AK character, Laevatain is Surtr reconvener in Endfield as to what are reconveners you will see in the game yourself. You can kinda see them as "clones" but not exactly"
so what you said is probably right 
Different name or different character with same appearance. Like flame anchor and Himeko. Raiden and Mei. 
It feels so bad attacking the same guy, but it is my only option since the other two, though I can beat, my defenses won't hold and they gem, while he does not. 
I guess mysterious character with no lore, no past memory like Surtr who doesn't have originium disease might as well survive because we know nothing about her. 
if it helps you can think of it as a "what if" scenario, there could be a universe where they didn't die to originium and found a cure
Except red hair girl with a stand
maybe OG arknight will actually make them find a cure and surprise you 
The dev said no cure. 
Not before this new game at least I guess
They could contain the spreading but not curing. So everyone died.
oh wow so they actually already put in on stone
sadge
Maybe they could change the lore in time 
Maybe that it's alternative universe. 
It was all a dream 

you can find practical uses
will this work? kinda scared of siren in t3
your anti scar team is overcommitted
what does it mean?
too much burst gen, you don't need both SWHA and helmT
that makes it worsse?
essentially you're wasting burst gen you could put in T3
here's your matchup:
the way i'd fix it:
uh
you can turn T3 in natural 2RL, which ensures you're deadly on the whole enemy team, while keeping your jackal siren resistant
going 2.5RL means your jackal can be stunned
first screenshot is what
which can be fine if you running siren backup B1 ofc
i'm sorry i assumed you knew what you were doing, taking a step back this is your current T2
as you can see you're 134% to 2RL
that 34% is overcommited, wasted
you're a bit further on than me I just unlocked ferrium mining in I think the 4th or so mini zone in the valley
at that point you can afford throwing in a buffer and still stay 2RL
which ensures you're lethal
you put screenshot with team different to mine and tell you are fixing it in 2nd screenshot
yes because i though you knew what you are doing in T2
there is 3 screenshots now
but you clearly don't if you're confused to the term "overcommited"
did you follow me so far on burst gen?
I'm enjoying more of arknights the further in I get though part of is more keen on the factory/production side than the combat side
that's the main catch afterall 
I like snowballing my economy and I got loads to learn on how to make my factory do more
sorry I don't know is it language gap on my side or smth
I've run out of explosives so I need to get some of the plants to make more
just first screenshot put me into confusion
you're producing 134% to 2RL in terms of burst gen
I understood overcommitment part
meaning you can afford dropping a burst gen unit for a buffer
I didn't understood why it would be bad
cuz you can maximize your team output
when making teams:
- hit enough burst gen to ensure speed
- add buffers/sustain/gimmicks to ensure lethal or increase win chances
basically there is big chance what I posted would already work but it wasn't optimal and optimizing around RL breakpoints is crucial in future
it will work, but it wasn't optimal, correct

@tropic summit may i ask how soda stun work it just random or i can taunt it?
Bruh.
Tauntable. If u bring 2 taunters, both stuns can be taunted
aka Noise + Noah for eg
Do i need a correct position to do that like put noise and noah in P1 and P2?
Yes, ur taunting units need to actually taunt soda before she B1
Easier to just ignore 2RL soda teams
I c , thx

anyone help me beat this? https://prnt.sc/FVpKaqXeTyBT
noah biscuit vestiTU helmT RH
i see rheax already explained, to add a bit of info:
enemy soda in p1 and p2 can be taunted by your noise and noah
enemy soda in p3 p4 p5 cannot be taunted
soda casts stun on 2 units at random, unless taunted
an easier way to deal against such teams is to bring a rosanna and kill their attackers, being a B1 she'll burst at same or near same time as enemy soda, unless you've way less CS% than opponent.
as long as rosanna kills enemy attackers, even if soda stuns your B2 and/or B3, they've no weapons against you
tyty
Thanks
Why Siren stuns Noah here? I thought Moran should prevent that?
you're 2.5RL
your team needs to be 2RL to be siren immune via moran
Does it have to be precisely 2RL? Can 2.2RL work?
you need to B1 when enemy is on B2 on 2RL
siren stun happens a little bit before B2 2RL
you can mess around with timings here: https://nikke.top/
you'll want your moran B1 to be before siren hits, on this graph you can see this team will be too late to get to B1 to prevent noah from being stunned
I understand how it works without Moran but with Moran I still have no clue how stun occurs
should B1 happen before stun line?
with Moran
siren stun moran? i thought noah taunt had prio over moran attract buff
(meaning is there a delay to Moran's taunt*)
and... moran will lose her burst if she get stun
In my fight, Moran bursted and Noah got stunned
as it should be (?
I need to make so that stun doesn't happen on Noah
moran noah on 2RL will have siren stun moran because she pulls siren before she lands hit on noah
although i've heard a certain amount of CS% on noah can nullify it
timing? taunt on charge should keep the aggro against attract
this is what you looking for
as you can see moran B1 is before siren stun
can you just kill siren with vesti/rosanna?
but noah stills get stunned :9
looks like a linked siren
Okay, this team doesn't function without killing my other teams. Welp gg. Gotta make new comps again
there's probably a different approach you can try, or just run noah with noise
noah with noise + noise taunt prio is common for that reason
2RL? if rosanna snipe both attackers you tank blanc burst
if he has rosanna built ye
this was tested before and there was a video here, although it's gonna take a while to search
okay, these are teams I had before. team 3 was Rapi instead of SBS for CP padding. Then I changed them to this (one sec)
or... scar nuke(? but speed check
I put this set up on defense because previous one was figured by my bracket and it worked for now
I have decent rosa
it's mostly issue of defence since this guy has it out for me
I'm thinking about giving 1 Max Ammo for SWHA, is there a specific number that I need to reach or?
is it moran taunt preventing noah stun?
@tropic summit a bit different now
full dmg, 1 ammo work but it doesn't matter for pve(you only lose the 3rd unbuffed hit in bad reload window), for pvp... probably help for sub-dps but specific ammo numbers depends on the exact comp
so 1 ammo after 4atk/ele and some crit work
- siren SWHA VestiTU Blanc Jackal (217k CP)
- Nayuta Centi Liberalio RH THelm (268k)
- Liter Crown Alice RH Drake
(223k)
he is piece of cake on defense
when I attack him I mean
that's the idea but i can't find the vid 
so you want a 3rd win?
I am trying to make team on defense that doesn't lose to his strongest two teams and my third team doens't suffer from being weak
he gave up on bursting altogether in T2 and just embraced CP pad this time
Hmmmm, OK, it's just that I'd prefer to use her for both PvP and PvE, if that's possible. I'm currently trying to use her to counter a specific opponent (indom Vesti)
I am getting popular as well
DEF teams... i don't build or change DEF teams, it doesn't work to me when i know i can beat them (my own teams) with many different combinations
yeah and hes never thrown scarlet in with the blanc team before, thats like omega fast scar
most popular one ๐
@lone sequoia oh, and due to limited amount of crystals, I was able to roll 4 Atk, 3 Ele and 1 Max Ammo
+2 years with the same DEF, only main dps changed in 1
Did Label kick Scarlet from SSS tier? I haven't seen any on defense recently
better than my swha, just keep what you got, you can try to get crit rate or just fill the lines for cp boost
no... is just more of the same, a new unit that work as ATK tool for lazy players that don't build units
scarlet have many counters at some lvl, but label is the 2nd true counter for her... in most of her comps at least
Good to know, hmmm... you said earlier that it depends on the comp, but maybe I shouldn't worry about it too much and just have that Max Ammo for now?
what is the first? noah?
yep, nuke counter
Okay I will try and build new teams. Then I will ask for a feedback here
Please cook. It's like 5 in the morning. Here's my box. If you don't see a unit here that you want me to use, I don't have her. So stop asking me where's Jackal and Noah and Biscuit and Blanc and Rumani and Trina...
Vids for moran Noah vs siren p1 and p3, vs siren in p1-2 Moran wonโt taunt
like... if your ATK or DEF team is indom or a different team that just work during first full burst and die, you don't need more ammo than that, there are some comps that last more time and at that point you check for ammo in your units, for sub dps swha you will need a bit more ammo than main dps swha just because how her burst is
oh so it was siren positioning dependant? you learn something everyday
@ancient sun this answers ur question ^
Yeah I think when sirens in p3-5, Moran can only taunt there
also @shell hazel
damn
so basically when siren is p1,p2 it's all useless. Best thing I can do is CS increase
Oooh ok, I see. That makes a bit more sense. Ugh... the thing is that I'm actually trying to use indom SWHA xD
But ech, since I'm planning on using her in PvE and probably as a sub dps in the future, I might as well just keep it like this. Thanks!
use the previous team i gave you for T2, just ensure you're in time to burst with crown she'll be stunned at 2RL B2 for 3 seconds, i think you need to be 4RL or 5RL but i don't remember
as for the other team, run noise jackal helmt flex noah, just facetank scarlet indom while you nuke w/e is linked
Unless I'm shooting myself in the foot, but I have a feeling that I'm not
or noise taunt priority
also 2RL indom with p1 B1 is siren immune
oh no label for the scar team?
Thank you Jackal
so noise p1 noah p2. 2.5RL work?
eh you can make a strat around label too i guess, keep in mind after she bursted you still gotta tank scarlet indom
You can make some teams now with helm and sw that can go pretty fast even without much cs on the team that allows b2 to go before stun, can input on nikke top and see
yeah, keep the ammo, 1 line is fine in both modes
that's one soultion to it I guess. It's just that I also use Nayuta on defense and if I make one team mega fast, I sacrifice a third team basically. I want to build LaplaceT to address that
man I dont even remember the previous team, time to go look at vids
Building a strong vesti also works, almost always kills siren p1-3

Vesti is my most invested unit rn. Pretty much I am carried by her since everyone in my bracket 50-100k CP advantage in challenger 
at the current state of the game, CP/penalty is the only good defense against people, nothing work after we got cindy +1 year ago... and in this case your options are 2 pvp teams+ 1 heavy cp team that use swha (indom swha is a good cp team)
@tropic summit Was it the crown trina biscuit lib rumani team?
you will be fine, keep playing and pushing campaign if you clear normal/hard mode and get those lvls you will get a huge lead later
I am trying bro. Currenly stuck on chapter 32 boss. I don't have Cindy or Crown so I have to invest into Ein. Meanwhile i am passing my time in PvP
Also does noise want to be jackal linked here?
no sanis?
Nope I joined in 3rd ani
what yo sync
it's easier to send babla link
so no doro... what about ssrapi or swha?
3rd anni would be no sansi
yeah I use them
not sure about ssrapi or swha hyper carry against mirror container, sdoro should work
no sdoro ๐
should work but need electric to break qte still
he can use lib there, she works too, still need other dpses though
this has to be one of the most cursed matchups with your box, T3 gonna need to pray
prob gonna need a rouge invest or something else electric
well mirror container is the hardest boss in the game and the 2nd best after mother whale
Oh man...
ye that one, although beware of siren stun, don't get biscuit bursting or you may no longer be lethal
They knocked me out of CH5.
keep it for when and if you reclaim it i guess
I was there for almost an entire day.
is there a point if I don't have Cindy tho?
i dont see a crown in ur list
at your sync you prob wouldn't be able without her
Well the team is 3RL
so I need to slow it to 4?
My friend told me that sync 241 is when I should actually try something. 261 is more realistic since no Crown, Cindy
just full dmg, nayuta/swha/ssrapi (b1)/ein/helm or naga
unironically prob roll dis
Found an easier one. It's on CH6. Keeps me away from Diamonds.
it was hard enough at 224 with cindy/lib/sdoro
i did skipped investing in better b1 there and used rrh there, but it's dmg check at such sync more than anything else
I'm just gonna CP gap their T1 till they deal 1 DMG.
is sdoro that good for this boss?
DEF stacking is still a problem if he doesn't destroy parts
3RL you probably bursting with biscuit
how is vesti against MC?
unless she's ded ofc
sw prob get to do it
not really, just good dmg agains't bosses
kinda bad without using Ein you know? I built her specifically for this boss
Trina will probably die on first vesti volley, also does noise want to be linked in that team or no
what's ur deficit?
high dmg without the range problems because for a SG she is like a sniper with pierce
just needs to burst, better actually if not linked
Also biscuit will probably die to vesti as well
kk
Yeah try this one for size.
that's around 99% stat reduction
56% deficit
CH6
doesn't even fit in the graph 
I think I can beat this too. CH3.
free wins
gap the world
Don't wanna attack tho. They're probably still online..
I'll do it at night.
you probably want a 3rd team, just because random sh-t happen and is a good place to test things
ye the delay mattered 
Crown burst went off though
I don't have enough units for that.
ye but your lib died pre nuke landing
she loses all the buffs
i doubt u can win this
might aswell just speed it up instead and get a backup B2 bursting
I struggle to get to phase 2 xdd
can u shatter first slipper atleast?
you probably looking at 241 clear without cindy/crown, cp is just too low to deal with that boss
@leaden canyon there you go
Damn. He's fight MC with the same deficit as me but I'm stuck in Chapter 31 boss.
what teams I should be looking for to use? Maybe supplement with Mast? Or just keep investing into my existing set up?

I wanna full OL my Crown to lower the deficit.
31 boss is which?
CC #3
btw hilarious misindom on their SWHA
that thing is just rng no?
31 is crystal chamber
Because the devs decided it's funny to spam the same boss three times in a span of 5 chapters.
xD
it's called budget design, re-use assets without having to make new ones = easy fillers little costs
It sucks. I hate fighting it. I shoot the L side and the R side pops out and destroys my cover. Or my unit just randomly dies.
nothing bad on working on ein or lib, you could use them on that boss if you get cindy, and ein would be especially helpful for missilis tower, vesti isn't needed there obv. and i'm not sure if mast will be the play here, but you could potentially try rrh+nayuta+ein+lib+mmast
i can try it for you kek, cant be worse than doing rebuild vulcan
I beat it with this set up. VestiTU here is unironically good because the defense on this boss is so high on top of deficit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSmU0c4xxBA my kill on your sync, notes in the description. but I had cindy and sdoro + heavier invest
Some notes on the kill:
- 1st phase is complete RNG fishing, and likely cause SDoro to be the target of slippers due to her self buffs, but approach of not destroying them and just fishing for when she survives was taken as it extends ever so slightly the window for dmg that you can deal. Ideally you want minigun that MC has to shoot different ...
yeah that's dumb, get lib more atk% or pad it out
if you can't lethal cindy it's bayover due to deficit
alright I got it
Tell me about it.
i was chill doing normal mode so i obliterate
pure joy
yo that's sick bro. Without Crown is very tough
i was playing my friend's account for that shit
The amount of times I was like:
PLEASE I-FRAME THIS PLEASE I-FRAME THIS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
What if I use vesti?
as long as you can prevent them bursting she might be fine
the iframe shit is so inconsistant cuz i used a bunch of snipers kek
it blows my mind when that there is entire other f-ing region to unlock after valley 4, the game launched with almost too much content, its overwhelming 
it's because you're trying to clear this within a week, just take it easy for once this isn't nikke 
Trying to find old photos be like:
im a factorio enjoyer i want to unlock all the factory stuff now
i've been skipping literally all the side content and shit that gets in the way of the factory game
quit nikke when?
I think I was 5th in my bracket who cleared it at that time, i was pushing hard and saving alot
but way lower cp clears are possible, just need to have right units and right invest +|| asian dna in your veins lol||
If vesti is ever avaliable shes just better for me because my lib isn't that built
i was....? i dont know
wtf is this defence in ph2
also congrats. very wp
That was also with biscuit burst
also realized we bursted with nayuta... swapping crown with nayuta probably would've retained lethal 
that's why you were no longer lethal
ah yeah maybe
@ancient sun my friend pulled cindy right before dis boss 
either way it worked with vesti, will keep it in mind for next times
Vesti doesn't even care about which b2 bursts though 
ye ridicolous anti deficit unit, amazing
real whel killer unit
it's hilarious it's a unit designed for underdogs to snipe even on deficit, goes against SU policy 
No she is tresh. Buff pls
Its a good thing im a paying customer
Now let me in your bracket
it's very gimmicky
mc puts 4 shields on itself and you essentially have to have enough attack/buffs that allow you to break through first one with 1 strong shot when he pulls out one of the spikes/ so called slippers, was easier for me to do with sdoro, but can be done with red hood and others too, after first shield is done subsequent ones are way easier to destroy, this phase just destroys your dps, and even though there 37s lefts to the fight, i realistically only had a few left, because after that he puts 4 shields on itself again 
ok
sounds braindead because it's ultimately CP and dmg check
I reckon RH will be good to burst with for that first spike
I didnt remember your sync so I just went for a big number
How did this even happen, she shouldn't be getting shot in p5 right? shes just taking SWHA passive damage like the rest of the team right?
i guess i gotta do it for the greater good


It must be nice to be able to sit on levels
Bro ive gotta push all the way to cc in hardmode
ur 508 u should be behemoth clear...
Sniper target p5 on offense
So true
Idk if I knew that before tbh
she's taking SR dmg (helmt and SWHA), although it does look too much for 2 snipers, i think he's running her without chest piece
I wonder how long itd take to hit my sync cap with the daily dust pack
I probably did and just forgot
tf 
forever?i'm barely over half
remember their weird indom priority? he might've been messing with it on purpose for that
ironically this is actually backfiring because you can abuse that like we're doing now
also i dont buy the daily dust pack no more 
i feel like come new chapter ill prob clear it 621 anyway
non zero chance 601 clear
Ill clear it sync 201
Wow, did he do this just to mess with me in pvp? because pve wise why tf wouldn't you just overload it
either both your SRs have 40%atk or noway you hit that hard within 2RL 
did me a new banner
Left is helm and right is SWHA
i wish my swha is that good
helm core 7, SWHA mlb
I am throwing rocks at her for 12 lines
that ammo on helm is brick tho big sad
yeah trying to get it off later
oh wowie they're pretty strong on their own then
@leaden canyon maybe you're really just hitting THAT hard afterall? 
i also have 12 lines but i have def

the not sure what i do next kind of deal
roll the line 2 def?
touch the line 1 black charge damage?
mysteries in life dude
if i roll the def into a ele it could be my very first 4 ele character

i could also cheap out and roll the low charge damage and ele a bit higher and call it a day
Would
Other than the level difference... Is there a way for me to beat this?
Nooooo, my punching bag test dummy got shuffled into a different Rookie Arena group somehow
We are literally one account ID apart too
blanc rumani biscuit midhara cindy
noah biscuit vestiTU helmT
noah biscuit SWHA RH helmT
It happened to me as well. From the beginning of the game, I was always in one bracket and then, last week, suddenly I can't find a single guy I know xD
u sure u want mihara before cindy tho?
helm will kill midhara at 2RL

Whose the fifth in the 2nd team? And whats SWHA
โฌ โ๏ธ ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ ๐ฆพ
Nice roll ur goal is 4 ele I suggest rolling the def line on Armor for ELE
What OL lines should I target with Rosanna? Still a ways off from using her but got her a blue doll finally.
Rather have crit so I can be meme tier 3 ele forever 
helm treasure, snow white heavy arms
Aww Man U made it too easy
@shell hazel
this is very satisfying
Holy crap I can actually run this
Ohh
U need CS on jackal and vesti 5% vesti and 15% jackal?
If u have it u can try this

Lets hope he stays with you in SP at least
I never tried the 2rl Nayuta on redhood, is it Killy?
it's annoying enough to be worth running
costs a slow cindy or a noah or a risky indom
What would be the counter?
or ofc always rosanna
So itโs Killy Eah
it does it's job at costing resources
Cost a Noah? So you are saying Noah can manage to block it?
The initial Nayuta aoe that is
she doesn't but nayuta isn't lethal on RH buff
noah biscuit archetype will survive
generally between 40-60%HP
that team works best with a p5 splasher like emi or vestiTU
then it's risky for p2 and p3 if they're unprotected or needed units
which adds difficulty in clearing that team
What if the cursed version 
Could lethal non water units no?
Even if only 2 of them
ye rosanna + nayuta will kill attackers pre B3
assuming no CS% advantage, nayuta is applied before noah and blanc is applied
just make it natural 2RL so it's not abusable with low hitters
keep in mind unlinked rosanna can be countered by SWHA to drop her cloak and drastically reduce dmg either way
i still dont understand how linking rosa makes her keep cloak
linked rosa isn't damaged directly because of damage share
it doesn't count as being "hit" so she won't lose cloak
be keripo, make everyone 20%+
then you'll be always bursting before most opponents
some matchups where you'd lose, you'd suddenly win
exception would be mirror indoms, then you'd lose more often, but that's realistically less important
welp natural 15%
oof that cp dorp
man i really should start trying to get my rls to 15
i'm mostly on 8-11 range
What beats this team?
- jackal scarlet laplacet blanc centi
- rosanna jackal vestiTU helmT noah (rosanna linked and built)
poke it with rosana
Thank you that worked
@tropic summit in general what's the best way to live swha's burst, in ca my salad was keeled
theoretically you can't kite SWHA
moran dies to it aaaaaaaa
the closest attempt i've seen was from Dair's moran anchorIM trina helmt biscuit
swha will win that trade
i dunno if there's anyone who can live vesti + blanc + ada
you'd need somehow to land biscuit stacks twice on a defender and outlive indom by invulnerability
but biscuit will be ded before 2nd stack is applied
assuming
the swha version live vesti indom with blanc only then that's good nuff for me
guys i asking in team building but help me made def arena team to replace my old one is this good enough?
T1 is very rosanna weak, but at least okish
T2 i assume it expects you to have vestiTU with CS%, even then it won't be 2RL
T3 is bad
i need help
if those were def teams, you can probably do better
if those were specific attack teams it's a different story
need one for def team last time i change def team is june last year
btw what is good invested rosana are?
SP arena
- nayuta centi helmt rh noir
- jackal vestiTU drakeT blanc trina
- noise siren swha lib noah
Notes
- finish dolls on utilities
- finish laplaceT, can then sub noir for her in T1
rosanna needs 7/10/10 40%atk 40%ele doll SR15 to be efficiently killing units
post your box and i can see what teams you can run
you can post in this format: #pvp-arena message
@tropic summit 
SP arena
- nayuta centi helmT RH emilia
- jackal vestiTU laplaceT blanc trina
- noise rouge swha siren noah
Notes
- centi and rumani need doll
- biscuit needs SR5
Once rumani is built, can sub rouge for natural 2RL in T3
is sr 0 ok for rumani and centi?
no, R15 into SR5, never SR0
waste of resources
i always sr 0....

there's a problemo with your T3, if lappy is ded who makes burst gen? your sister?
my sister i guess
fix it... 
sir done sr 5 biscuit
p5 label? 
rosanna and helmt will still kill lappy
the attacker is the sacc in that team
sir this is why i hate r 0 to sr 5
life too hard back to kekw
ye that's better
do what you're more comfortable with 
do u think sac rosa scar is better than sac sg?
i could run this but it feels less enlightening
btw for rumani and centi si r0 enough?
SR5 is most unit stopping point recommended
R15 is passable
that's too boring for your standards
lacks spice indeed
albeit they're good teams
centi also rumani
all sr 5 sir
good, sub rouge for rumani
noise rumani swha siren noah
quantum 7 on noah and rumani and you've yourself a 2RL swha noah team
with stun pressure and noise b1
doubles as anti enemy noah (p1-p2) if you've noah taunt priority
else noise taunt priority is fine
@tropic summit
i dont have nuff clip rls 
show T1, i think it's time to beat that one
also sir i got 3 quantum slot left which unit should i equip it?
tired of dealing with his tantrums on T3
I mean we have tried a few times but we will see
i'm gonna CP pad it if it needs to
bit of a test T2, let's see the timing
cubes
noah tempering
biscuit vigor
swha tempering
ada any
noise vigor
rumani tempering
VestiTU any
emi any
laplaceT any
nayuta any
show CP before running
might need to sacc lappy
@tropic summit i can only roll this in theory, my anis dont have nuff invest to live anything
but noise expand hp and helm life steal with nayuta sharing the healing she gets could be interesting
that's a lot of extra steps to get a scarlet sacc
and i don't rly like T4
me neither
your previous teams were better 
its spicy but feels too cope
spicy is one thing, weaker is another
ye seems more reasonable
tis a shame tho its not too different from my current set with the only real difference being rapunzel tech
20% deficit against moran + noah + lib... not sure rumani lives, put lappy in p1 and rumani in p3 for now
k, lap has tempering on
also wait a min... you're on deficit in t2
he's CP padding 3 teams now...? are you for real
yeah his cindy is a huge cp booster
That thing is core 7 and has to be all black lines
need 1950k for T3 i guess we gotta do that one instead
if we hit non deficit you should be able to outlive nayuta RH buffed B2
I wonder with enough snipers we can just kill hood before burst 
forgot to move rumani, final draft
Doesn't always matter, a 20% faster rock still loses against paper. RNGesus ain't care about your stats when it comes to matchups 
true... RNGesus is the ultimate boss 
If he chhanges this team next, thhat means hes in here
Because he NEVER changes that team
honestly, we still had jackal open... could've spared getting your p1 dying 
but well the timing was perfect
thank you ele weak lib on deficit
Could work.
the gap master 
It's the easiest way to win.
I honestly think we've gotten to the point where CA winners (in my bracket at least) are determined almost solely by RNG now. Investment gaps have all mostly been fixed and everyone running copy pasted templates that don't show anything new.
and i thought i gapped hard
yeah that gamemode was meant to become stale
cindy deserve doll of purple
as long as everyone can copy pasta and it's based on RNG and win ratios, it won't be fun
Honestly you are insane
Next Solo Raid. Had to Prio Red Hood, HelmT, and Libe.
even my comps are getting less cursed
I never thought that team would die
tbh you were always close to kill noah, only needed emi to help out
nayuta kinda contributed too
Will be even juicier when surface content stats come into play 
Everyone copying my XSoline-X-VestiT-Emilia-Laplace setup and a good number also running my Moran-Lib-Helm-Mana-Noah setup


XSoline isn't even in Nikke.top still
that libe mana noah is strong, lost to that
tbh i think it's more likely some other asian lads came up with similar ideas, the number of combos you can run are actually quite limited if you think about it
buti instead they added label 
Oh thats where that team came from, damn you keripo I lost to that 
Could be, I know at least CN watches all my videos and borrows from them
oh i don't doubt that, it's easier to copypasta than cook on your own sadly
When is Solo Raid coming? I'm having a hard time fighting the urge to turn the purple SG and MG dolls into a purple RL doll.
1-2 weeks after union raid
union raid is the upcoming thursday reset?
Damn. That's long.
Which one, XSoline or Mana? Cause both combos didn't appear in any CA teams til after the first time I used them afaik
Lot of people still don't use Mana and I've also replaced her already with Label
i glaze my mana and i stopped using her
i was going to last ca
but rail spanked me out of it

She was more valuable when people weren't as invested and there were 2.5RL teams
Now with everyone fully invested with dolls and 2RL teams, plus full stall team being not strong enough anymore, Mana's value goes down
@glad meteor @quick lake @swift mango @placid bloom @worthy knoll you guys know how viper burst chooses its target?
what's the logic for choosing emilia here?
The mana one
Some one some how got their hands on that team in my bracket lol

not familiar with that skill i legit don't know the reasoning behind it 
inb4 it's random targetting
to me its the one she is targeting
It was Cryo from ghosts
It works if you're running C0 Moran or Noah
so if i understand right
SGs are shooting p5
rumani burst happens, SGs switch from p5 to p4, but they shoot emilia? 
i'm confusion. 
Maybe stage target is the one with highest CP. Or maybe the middle unit.
Thats what it was for this CA
nah it's the "affects 1 designated enemy unit"
skills with stage target don't trigger in arena so you can ignore that part
Which of your comp died to it
So, it just picks randomly or it doesn't activate at all?
Hmm, Mana doesn't help here.Moran shouldn't need it and if it's against a SG Rosana team, Mana's rez will get dispelled
stage target skills don't activate at all
because stage target does not exist in arena
same goes for skills that change if raptures are present, like lib
I dont remember
Hmm. I see. I get it
doesn't get it at all
gonna wait for the experts to reply, hopefully they know 
it counters vesti in some way
but tbh.. i do not know
The only value Mana adds in that setup is if your Moran or Lib are under-invested and risk dying before 2RL
i pinged some veterans let's see 
And burst gen
Oh I think it went against my vesti team so lib for sure died quick
for example like this, my high ele vesti killed libe fast but at the end they bursted with her since mana revivied
I dont really remember though
non indom vestiTU tho right?
Oh yeah full Tactical Vesti setup, Mana counters
nope, i am on absolute team now
But I'm surprised someone would run that in CA
then ye she'd die because lib revives behind shield and has time to land nuke
yep
team will sure get more popular
since people are starting to run absolute team
Chat, can we get another pvp b3
Hansel and Gretel, trust
I hope we can skip Velvet
we need carries like SWHA and vestiTU but for wind and iron
I actually just want another Blanc or Noah.
it's gonna trivialize SP arena
the more of those units they release the more the defense breaks
Part of the reason for the current RPS is that Blanc and Noah exists, and they almost guarantee wins for those 2 teams. So you end up with 3 uncertain teams that becomes a pure RPS
That's true too
for CA it will still remain a matter of RNG
i only can see it unhealthy releasing more of those units, unless they actually give defense more tools to work with and that are defense only restricted
All I know is that I'm pretty sure a couple other people will be getting their 10 win frame before me in NA cause of easier brackets 

C7 pantyhose thighs, LFGGGG
they're getting really good at drawing feet... i wonder if someone from GF2 switched team in the dev team
Wait, they screwed up the pantyhose design. The seam line is supposed to be down the side of the leg, not the front of it.
you're... quite knowlegable on the topic 
Whats jackal good at @tropic summit
@tropic summit ?
Iโm not Rail but She keeps your 2 highest attack units alive using her buff Jumpin Jackal Flash
And you can check to see who your 2 highest attack units are by going into Union Shooting Range with the team
And checking for the Jumpin Jackal Flash buff on your units
So basically, like Nayuta but better?
No
Jackal links 2 units with the highest atk at battle start. These 3 share health and become harder to kill, on top of providing extra burst gen when one of these units is hit
This ^
This link can be very helpful for keeping a unit in p1 alive til burst or for managing healths for indom. However, it can become a detriment when going against units like helm because she will nuke one of the links and kill all 3
So basically behaves better than Noah?
No
._.
Entirely different roles
Can u summarise?
Noah?
No, jackal
Because i need to understand her
Before putting her in absolute tu squad
She links your 3 highest atk nikke. They now have the health of all 3 combined. When one of them is hit you gain extra gen
Or any
This
She does not make them invulnerable or immune to dmg
If that so,
What she do? Only buff?
I see
So i assume, to use jackal must have good pairs? And not compatible for Absolute TU squad?
But obviously not compatible to use trio abs with her right?
Jackal best links with counter effect units like Scarlet and Emma
Aight
Emma has a counter?
Emma heals on getting hit
Ah ok
But that doesn't mean you should run the pair in current PvP meta
Like Biscuit 's original ideal pairing was with SAnis
Now she just gets used for her indom passive effect
She lets me bully the leviathans
Think biscuit was more designed to work with nero with less dr
Bisc sanis was really not ever that good, was at best an existing synergy just because sanis is a supporter
Sanis really needed noah to buy time and stop instant nukes
You are a whale with high research+core. You should benefit the most from using Absolute, but you ditch it instead? 
From my testing, there's too many setups that counter it. Including 4 of my 5 teams at the time lol
Plus you forget that I'm in the most competitive bracket
Almost everyone in CA now has full SR15 dolls and probably full +5 OLs
The core and research advantage isn't much anymore compared to rock paper scissors element
It's been 20 CAs after all. Any whale or dolphin with an interest in PvP should have all their main PvP units fully invested by now
Gone are the days of "that team should have lost but managed to win anyways cause of investment diff"
Well those are normal. Not everyone use teams that counter Vesti absolute. And afaik only Biscuit and Nayuta p1-2 hard counter it. The rest could be beaten with enough investment into core/research/crit/atk
Comparing to your enemy
It's why more people use Noise linked though. 
The other thing is that even if I ran team Absolute, it wouldn't actually free up any units to improve my other teams. My current Vesti team is XSoline, MAnchor, VestiT, Emilia, and Laplace+. Of these, maybe Emilia could be moved to a different team, but we have plenty of burst gen battery now that that's not an issue
Yeah, absolute is just rouge option in my opinion, not meta. It's depend on your enemy investment and positioning.
Plus older bracket has Emi.
My VestiT is also already 4x CS + 4x Atk. My union will kill me if I spent 200 rocks rolling crit 3rd line x4 on her lol
I only just recently got Bastian and Resilience lvl 11 lol. But my "bricked" count is still the highest of everyone 
My resilience was the first cube to 11 but I won't level Bastion pass 8-9 anytime soon.
Actually probably more than 200 since you want high crit rolls but want to maintain the existing high CS rolls
Tbh ya better to 15 resil and leave bastion 5 than balance them
Balance is more qol for ppl maxed resil
Well, you could try absolute for a season if you wanted to adventure.
It's all up to luck in the end. Jackal linked without Noise or healer. Nayuta SG but not p1-2. You could meet them and auto win.
Plus Vesti crit every hit

Sometime you may need bastion with 5 slot. 
Level 5 doesn't have the slot
thats also true
That's just too much to invest lol I would rather just keep Ele and hoped I met wind units.
im kinda to the point of removing ele to get atk and some crit
I'm happy with the win rates for my current matrix, but ultimately it's still RPS. Most new cooks I've tried all end up much worse or marginally better than the SG team but using units that would break existing teams or making the overall 5 team win rates worse
keripo, how you feel your vesti against wind units when your build is mostly atk + cs
There are teams I've tested with higher win rates but they are so expensive that the teams you can build using remaining units end up being really bad win rate and it becomes not worth
Those get revisited when we get new "enabler" units like SWHA which can burst AND provide burst gen
What's this yapping
Only team that I consider elemental for is SG team

i see, the rest i guess you go for atk and another line usefull for the unit
Tell me, how does elemental help other teams
Except for SG and VestiT, autos don't matter
i do not have an answer for that, was just asking cuz my vesti is high ele and decent cs but since i have no atk was just considering removing the ele lines for attack
moran centi priv treasure
not sure if zwei treasure useful 
@covert lintel finally priv treasure 
looks like I cant indom priv if needed
๐ญ
we trusted the dino in her skin
Wow a pvp update
My Moran has 0 stars
now centi treasure might be interesting
moran c4 and centi c2 with max doll, im ready
Scarlet counter.
Enough ELE so you don't need buff to wipe a tanky team key unit like Rapu
ReiT used to need ELE to beat Nero team with one buff
It's niche but it's there
Why are they buffing moran xd
Who is in bottom left
because she is a queen
Centi
units getting skins its the sign for treasures
@unique wagon Now it's safe to put Centi and Trina in same tier. Maybe Centi would reach SSS even. 
now is safe...

Still need to see what they do
Cuz it could be barely anything or it could be breaks unit
Zwei, Moran, Privaty, Centi
They could all be Arena relevant. This treasure batch is expensive.
every time Centi full charge, give team 1s invin
just don't run out of ammo
Need to give my priv her skill books back
that fix her kit 
Imagine if Moran gets a 20s cd and becomes usable outside pvp
Or they could be Bay
anyways, what Moran can improve on
Moran can heal 10x at low HP instead of 3x 
Even add dmg is improvement.
Centi and Moran about to destroy PvP.
finally helm lifesteal sogut 
Would be nice if centi got a burst that did something
I could see this happening if it's only during full burst.
Basically Scarlet SSS tier again.
And every slow burster a tier down
Aside from Vesti
Priv 10s stun 
Yeah new meta would make all slow burster into the trash can.
Oh man. I just got over my pain in PvP, now they're gonna double down on it.
Oh shi--- this is the new treasures?
Moran and Privaty, LFGGGG
Wait, Centi too
WTF IS THIS?!!
Oldschoolers remember the old Privaty stun meta
how to improve privaty without making her broken/useless
If priv gets real dmg and some burst gen mbe shes meta now
yess, we going for moran first. wonder how they will make her treasure...
Need so many more doll mats now
Ngl, Moran looks super cute there
I for once, the first batch I could safely use my mileage for Noah.

no besto shieldo mlb yet?
But Zwei 
Every treasure batch after I got her I had to spend 1-2 for treasure dupe
now your new cook with privaty .. maybe her stuns time goes x2 and now stun meta
Got her
imagine tixing treasures units other than helm....
It seems moran would destroy pvp time to upgrade that doll

Cyanide and Happiness is a daily webcomic on www.explosm.net that was created by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson, Dave McElfatrick and Matt Me...
I really look forward to Centi and Privaty upgrades
My helm is core 6 now and I have 2 selection mileage left
I don't have 2 limit breaks on her

Centi goes from being a pure battery to... Something more I guess
I don't even have her.
Not me. We don't know if she's useful anyway
And Privaty returns as the PvP queen
i should have bought her skin
Maybe
Honestly i think she is just gonna be like julia treasure
Oh wait, I'm not very sure either lemme check
probably
Privaty and moran are top priority
i never felt like building her but maybe its time
but for now just gonna go for moran and centi
the rest can wait
but since her bond is 30 ,she just need a max doll
Moran and privaty it is then
Same I don't have either. I guess it's fine to skip Zwei. 
Just like Poli
But how could u upgrade centi she is just a battery
my Zwei have the most copies out of the 4 
zwei is the only one i don't have mlb 
priv and centi been sitting at c3 for awhile now
Favorite Item Update
In 2026, we plan to introduce Favorite Item updates twiceโin February and July.
maybe moran and zwei next month, the rest in July
Is this the return of Team RePrivaty???
https://youtu.be/eeJWEXq2CzU?si=rZ1rLJXEEx-7eSTo
The new Re:Zero collab unit Emilia was a pleasant surprise, not only serving as a top tier burst gen battery but also enabling some old-school PvP teams such as Team Privaty. While this setup likely won't be meta for defence due to being easily countered by Noah, its still a pretty viable attack team. Emilia's ability to provide higher-than-norm...
Oi 
we love pvp here
no they literally wrote in the dev note those 4 get favorite item in Feb 
It's more about adding another batch not spitting 1 batch. 
was just saying...

Ofc but how could you upgrade it for pvp ? Atk buffs maybe?
summer treasures
do not know, i will let SU handle that
it's easy
current kit: s1 reduce s2 cooldown by 7% per full charge shot, s2 is 9s cd trash shield
new kit: s1 reduce s2 cooldown by 8s, s2 give your entire team 1s invin 

could someone help me make some teams for arena with what I've got? sorry for such a huge question, i do want to learn about pvp and know barely anything about it as mine must be godawful since no thought went into them besides some extremely basic knowledge such as jackal good, why is she good, no idea honestly I guess burst charge since it seems pretty important but Ive basically no idea
make her most broken PvP unit 
Truely a return of Privaty meta. Maybe Harran will also get a treasure... Oh wait...
as long as you don't run out of ammo you can't lose
imagine a team 2 RL with soda and privaty

soda stops noah noise and privaty the rest of the team
if you have 26% cs Helm you can even Priv burst before Mermaid stun 

thats crazy
Very old team video 
then again there's no reason not to Jackal p1 without a better B1 
but this team still too expensive outside of rookie
though maybe Noah not necessary depending on Priv stun duration
unless you really scared of getting Vesti tapped
Back before #pvp-arena even existed. Only took me 2 years of lobbying to convince the CMs to create this channel

Keripo our savior

2 years
Maybe I came to this discord just in time
maybe this team weak to Scar counter too, AR + SWHA on link seem like dead
and also weak to Ros
And vesti
ok bet time to 24cs helm 
November 22, 2023. So 2.5 years
What do you think about the win rate of this set?
What are the charge speeds
Er, burst speeds
Is that a Delta sac lmao
Yes it is
Not a bad strat actually
T1 seems a bit too slow, might legit lose before Blanc burst
T5 looks like a throwaway, not sure if that's actually better than an SG team
The only instant nuker in the meta now is Scarlet, which Label counter. So it's pretty fool proof
It's the "Nayuta wipe" team that wipe before same speed Noah shield up. Ofc it's like Vesti absolute to me, defend on investment of both side.
thank you time to copy this

yo Moran and centi are getting a favourite item
privaty 
this wave is super good I like all the choices
But do you have the high core RH+Nayuta? And high investment on Nayuta but not stealing dispel from helm/RH?
its ok we trust in lucky match up

wait rapun non link t4 maybe I cant 

My Nayuta suck, I tried Nayuta wipe before in a CA but it's not enough.
ayo she suck yea 
I like how Moran and Centi basically free treasure for me
sorry i was sleeping, some ppl already asnwered you, here's full answer and some showcase
(1)
- she is one of the best batteries in the game, being clip RL but also enableing a "feed" system, based on bullet counts her and linked unis receive (linked units are the 2 highest atk% in that team when you enter battle, it's static and won't change during battle)
(2)
- linking allows distribution of dmg and receive feed, this is important also for indom purposes
(3)
- linking units ensures lowest HP in the link is generally indommed, under most conditions
i'm attaching a few videos to showcase common scarlet team and example indom
My Moran was sr10
Pushed her to 15 just now
But now i wait and see kit before sr15 other units

no yet
we gonna get to use her treasure before beta season ends in S30
just now,,,
Depend on how treasure Centi looked like we could finally have a new defensive b2 options or they just keep ignore it.
Need 2 zwei dupe, and one centi dupe
Like they did since bay
