Arknights now finally global! (NA)

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Daammn managed to beat CM 7. Haha need a long time to break Rat King's shield
I'm happy having 3 powerful defenders that I can rely on. Lappland near Liskarm is just was wis wus with her second skill

[Spartacus]

finally beat CB-EX7 CM, I can rest in peace, without dying.

I wasn't sure why Myrtle is highly valuable at first even after E2'd her a month ago, but her fast charge really helps a lot. Then Rat King's typhoon ability continues to focus on her. I still hate those sand shield guys tho, most of my failed run is because I unable to time my Skills precisely or else my bottom Guard and Defender will die.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Same bruh, oftenly is the top or bottom

Now I can't imagine myself not having Myrtle in my roster

[R.Lock]

Ch'en top, Hoshi mid, Lapp bottom = no leaks, no problem in ex-7.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Daaammnn finally finish all the CM. Damnit

CC IS ON JUNE 12!!

Finally manage to beat the hardest stages on chapter 5 CM. The first time I see enemy still standing at the end of Eyja's volcano duration

[Toranth]

Can't beat EX7, and now I'm out of practices. Guess that's it for me.

Ironically, my biggest problem was my 'best' unit - E2 Exusiai. The 'Angel Blessing' thingy kept screwing up my HP calculations. Of course, it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway; a bunch of E1-45s just can't quite tank the enemies or do enough DPS to avoid the damage. I could consistently clear 2 of: the upper lane, Boss, or bottom lane, but not all three.

Oh, well. I got all of the Bison tokens and other limited stuff, missing out only on some LMD/EXP (and OP). So not that bad.
Did EX8 have another story sequence after it?

[Wandering Swordwoman]

No there's nothing after that.

Yeah, if your E1 are even not on max level, I don't think you can beat Bulldozer and Rat King. Barriers are also pretty annoying since they are hard to beat without strong arts damage

[Wandering Swordwoman]

Now Contingency Contract has been released. The daily rotation map didn't give me a good impression

This gonna be really hard

[Toranth]

Really? This CC daily map didn't seem too bad; even my loser team could beat Risk 6. I could easily beat Risk 8 if I could somehow get a few more deployment points earlier, too, or have my vanguard do about 25% more damage.

The permanent map, on the other hand... I got Risk 3 down, and I think I can do 5 - maybe 6. But beyond that, it's kicking my ass. I'm tempted to spend all 4000 contract points I've earned so far on LMD and EXP to try to E2 my FEater to go for the Avenger Cheese strat. People tell me it isn't necessary at low Risk, but those Hateful Avengers just chew me up - I'm not sure what I can even do to stop them.



Also: RNG sucks.
Example #1: I wanted to E2 Ifrit, so I've been farming chips for a while. Today I used all my potions (500 or so sanity) to finish them off. Results:



Example #2: This week's Annihilation results.


Yeah, I know it's trivial, but man, it's annoying.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

I'm short of 5 orundums too haha

Yes it's not that bad, but it'll show us how more difficult taking more risk can be even with the same map

[GDB]

I beat the daily map risk 8 relatively easy once I got the opening down. Plume and Myrtle were quite good once I got the timing right.

Up to risk 14 on the perma map. Can't get higher until I get more of those yellow things to unlock conditions in a few days. Looks like it's going to heavily come down to RNG on whether FEater lives or dies though, which is going to suck.

Worst case I'll do it next week when easier conditions show up, but I'd rather get it done this week.

[Spartacus]

I don't have Hellagur for daily, but then I remember I have Magallan to ignore unit limits.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

I have lvl 1 Mayer

[Toranth]

I have lvl 1 Mayer

Awesome! She can team up with my level 1 Deepcolor!

[eddyak]

Hellagur isn't strictly necessary, I managed with a Projekt Red- she does need to be pretty strong, though, and you need to be good about pulling her back before she gets popped by the mage.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

My Red is only level E1 50

- - - Updated - - -

Awesome! She can team up with my level 1 Deepcolor!

Cursed contracts

Finally manage to beat risk 12

[Toulou]

Managed to beat risk 9 of the daily.

I tried risk 12, but on the last wave, not matter what I did, I could not stop drones leaking because I don´t have a strong sniper besided Exusiai. Angelina and Meteor were not enough, and I can only borrow one unit from my friend list.

At least today I was able to win Area 59 risk 17, but I am worried that if I take the contract that increases the HP of enemies by 150% tomorrow I would no be able to defeat the stage. Maybe if I use Specter to stall the Armed Militant instead of the caster at bottom, but I am not sure that its going to work.

[Spartacus]

is there any benefit on doing the daily with risk more than 8?

[Toulou]

None, unless you want a challenge and/or bragging rights.

Bruh.... the E2 level is so damn high. You have big three too
