    Whew, man those DH-S-3/4 levels are something else. Finally got them down though; back again to farming until the last stage comes out. I'm assuming by the -0 that it's going to be one of those 400 enemies thingies. Looks like there's a lot of the Ch'en note things that you get from it; I assume it's a bunch to mark progress in the partial clears?
    Hopefully it drops a crapton of currency too because I am so, so far away from emptying the shop of non-infinite materials. Is that supposed to be possible? I've just barely made a dent in the second tier of items, but it's like 1500 currency to just buy-out one type of item (or 2000 for all the LMD, yikes).

    Somehow still have to get another 1000 currency in recycling to get the 10 of 10 for the medal.

    I guess I beat everything for now. The MO stage doesn't seem to be out yet? I did all the EXs and the last two DH-Ss over the weekend tho.

    DID U KNO: it is possible to clear DH-EX-5 and its CM with only 4 operators

    Ol79vhd.png

    Challenge Mode all like "The exploding boats EXPLODE HARDER" and I'm just like "okay cool, what if the boats didn't explode at all though"

    Ideally I should've used a solid 2-block Vanguard along with Lapp, like maybe if she were higher level she could solo that entire lane by herself but it got close a few times and I had to heli-drop Myrtle in

    also i didn't bother with any of the stickers that are conditional at all mostly because they feel extraneous with 3 devices available

    It took long enough, but I'm finally max level (120). Really makes me wish the levels past the one that gets you to 135 stamina... did anything. Like, a small currency bonus (of any kind), that's how other gacha games I've played handled increasing the cap when they didn't want the player to have any more energy.

    I should probably check if I have all the medals. I think I do? But I'm not positive if I finished the recycle 10 things one yet or not.

    Anyone know if I'm better off dumping my remaining sanity pots tomorrow in the summer event for the infinite materials? Or better to save them for Friday for the eunectes event rerun?

    All done!!!

    DH-MO-1 was obnoxious, I'd get to like 395/400 and just BLORF my team would explode. Some fine tuning later and ez pz


    1UX0n0M.png

    My basic setup, more or less. I recreated this after the fact but for the actual clear I left Myrtle in there til about ~200 DP, Just In Case. I'd swap SAsh in for Saria at times, Saria being on S1 to cover some healing for inc burst damage (and usually after SAsh used Truesilver, since the deploy cd is shorter than leaving him in)

    Stickers used:
    +200 Atk on Melee
    +200 Def on Ranged
    Melee Regens 50 Erosion per sec
    Ranged Regens 50 Erosion per sec
    Melee no longer has ASPD penalty under Erosion

    Tried a ranged heavy setup and it wasn't working, just went full in on melee beefers, gave them the +Atk since my ranged DPS already hit like trucks, and gave my ranged the +Def since they'd get stomped otherwise.

    I used a borrowed S3 Skadi Alter though and WOWWW Caster Skalter is LEGIT AF. That True Damage fucking melts. MVP for sure.

    I borrowed a Thorns for it, but I should have used Ch'en Alter instead. All these beefy units were made for her to destroy with her S3.

    Whenever I'm feeling super lazy I look up Yanfly's setups and see what I can adjust.

    And yes, the finale of this event is very much made for Ch'en to show off.

    I forgot to finish the challenge modes for this event and I don't know if I have the motivation to do it in the next 7 hours or so.

    Oh well, it's fine, playing less gacha is probably healthy anyways

    More or less "you can't have more than 6 deaths/retreats during High Tides"

    So basically as long as you kept everyone alive it was like an automatic thing :V

    Came back to this during the last event because Ch'en :P. (Who I managed to get :biggrin: )

    Rolled on Kalt'sit banner and got Mudrock. Which is a pretty good way to miss since I didn't have her. Does Eunectes offer anything really over my usual staples for defenders? (Hoshi, Saria, Blaze basically is one...)

    Eunectes was functionally depreciated when mudrock came out imo.

    Giant stat ball, fiddly to use tho. Eunectes is more like an enmity guard you can heal.

    At least the banner 5 Star this event was good and brings something new that isn't covered by current 6 Stars. Enmity Guard with AoE. She's... pretty good.

    Eunectes is pretty niche, but that said she's pretty damn good for her niche. She's extremely good at 1v1s, boasts the longest stun in the entire game at 18 seconds long, and can even 1v1 the likes of Patriot.

    Downsides include only having 1 Block, only able to get SP while blocking a unit.

    Not worth rolling for tho, imo.

    Kinda bummed about rerunning an event sans the best thing about that event. Was it too much of a server load or do they just kind of suck for not bringing the roguelike mode back? Do love the new skins though, so at least there's that.

  • Options
    PolaritiePolaritie Sleepy Registered User regular
    Yeah, the roguelike mode was neat. Also, I love that the entire justification for it is "Ceobe got high on shrooms".

    they probably didn't bring back fungimist because roguelike season 2 will be coming eventually

    also while as a first stab fungimist was alright as a roguelike it definitely had some glaring design/balance flaws

    Throw me in the 'I hated it' pile as well. It was too unbalanced and rng-reliant to be fun.

    Going through the EX stages and enjoying how much damage an E1 max Mizuki is doing. He isn't high on my E2 list, but a nice added extra for the first few at least.

    Also, is the Utage outfit available? Is it an EX stage reward? I haven't spotted it anywhere yet.

  • Options
    shoeboxjeddyshoeboxjeddy Registered User regular
    Fungimist was unbalanced, sure. But it was also the only mode in the game that asked you not to just pick the best possible Operators at the highest level on dunk on enemies. You actually had important reasons to field 3 and 4 stars, and their development mattered to your success. It was also the most fun mode to idly play while watching TV. Basically, Fungimist was the first time Arknights felt like a real game to me, and not just a gacha with surprisingly not terrible levels.

    bugger. looks like the Utage outfit did not make a return.

    I realize now that it was part of the Fungimist content and they kept Kay away form the shrooms this time.

    The Ange outfit brings the hardest choice now.

    Adorable as hell Coral Coast or stick with the badass Bloodline of Combat skin?

    I loved and hated fungimist. Loved the concept but it was too stupidly hard. Like, punishingly ridiculously hard. Your success was dictated almost purely on which characters you were able to get and which rng missions you drew. And most missions were tuned to assuming you had more characters than you probably did when you got to them.

    It was still a fun mode tho. Just way too hard.

    it's not really appropriate to call her that anymore because she has a name, it's Goldenglow, and also
    she's not a dog at all, she's a Scottish Fold cat

    I see they have created Space Invaders in Arknights...

    I only did like 5 of the new maps (I was tired and that was enough progress for yesterday :P) but so far pretty easy. But the early ones are always easy too.

    The currency kinda feels like it might be a pain to get? I haven't even gotten enough for the character tokens yet and I've essentially done 10 stages (5 + challenge mode for each). Is there some kind of achievement thingy that gives more rewards I'm not seeing? There usually is one but I didn't see one here, just the store and movies.

    Regular stages pay out too, just play as normal once you clear the event stages.
