【Arknights】【IS2】Speedknights vs Sad Lock

[@yanfly]

I'll try to get a Mouthpiece run. As long as RNG permits.

[@mokonaarappa690]

good luck with rng XD

[@bsd2207]

Can't wait to see it. RNG has only let me get to the 6th floor once so far and I couldn't even meet the mouthpiece because I got the emergency op for Ursus Desire :(

[@ntrpotato6675]

A bit off topic but would you recommend Gnosis' Skill 1 mastery, particularly for IS2?

[@akira1722]

Goodluck!

[@yanfly]

@@ntrpotato6675 If you don't have expendable resources, I wouldn't since there's no benefits outside of damage.

[@anca1ag0n37]

Please keep uploading these with your thoughts and comments. Way more helpful than you think

[@COHawke15]

Actually, Gnosis's attack range allows him to hit every single starting Defense Up Drone in the Jetman stage: just have him point directly right while on the middle AA tile. It's almost as if it was planned like that...

[@anonymouse1643]

Passenger might be the MVP of this video but Gnosis has the spotlight his ice attack looks so useful

[@foniksg2415]

nice clear but minor correction, the drone on flying man is not slow drone it's the one that give +def to enemy

[@yanfly]

Oh, thanks! Didn't realize that.

[@kiryukai4313]

@@yanfly whats lowering your aspd is the anti air tile that makes you deal more damage to Air units while slowing down your aspd

[@jojosefixu9648]

Gnosis with aspd is so crazy as he freeze enemies just by normal attacks

[@lucrecia3303]

I wheezed so hard when Passenger appears and the music changes

[@marielcarey4288]

5:25 he actually does 3 laps, the devs changed it (for the better lmao)

[@obeliskblaze]

Mana Khemia top tier OST right here

[@Highs009]

A M9 Passenger, first time i've seen such glory.

[@feng6641]

Welp, it's because it's a free recruit.

[@marielcarey4288]

I mean, it's a temp.

[@Axterix13]

Well, all three of his skills are pretty useful. Even if the first is mostly just when you want a nice lazy AFK run. People just fixate a bit much on his S3.

[@ElliottHansen]

Post more please. I love seeing different strategies for IS runs

[@Haz102938]

Probably the reason why people focus on encounters so much is because it's actually way harder to get yourself on the third ending path than it is to beat the damn fight. I've played quite a bit of the mode so far and I literally haven't even fought mouthpiece yet as the rng has been so terribad for me I can't get the full sequence of encounters to appear. The hardest ending 3 can be is if you literally don't have a single VG which is about 100x less likely than just having the right encounters fail to appear and even then people tend to agree that it's the easiest boss fight by a landslide.

[@yufeng1707]

I'm on the opposite end, I go for encounters all the time, get the requirements, but I'm too weak to clear floor 6.

[@marielcarey4288]

@@yufeng1707 MouthPiece is easy though, just have to hold 2 lanes and have a decent cast of redeployable dps. SilverAsh excels in the stage. My favourite lane holders are Saria + Blue Poison and Thorns + Whisperain. Just kill the things fast and you win, no speedy monsters, global arts damage, shielding cancer, gargoyle bs.

[@marielcarey4288]

Lol fr tho, if you don't have a vanguard you're more likely to lose to the stage with chapter 8 enemies and dp regen down..

[@vindo17]

Yanfly, this kind of "IS Insights" video is really good! Care to made another? General tips and tricks, specific stage clears, etc?

[@Luninareph]

HAHAHA, NEFERTITI! Epic music for an epic run

[@frans-maria1453]

Wrath of the Siracusans and Attack speed is ridiculous with Exusiai S1. If you get a run like this again, you should try it!

[@shaiful666a]

Post more is2 run plz loving it

[@cecakgabut1030]

9:22 imagine having this stage with all ground unit

[@slifer1600]

I'm pretty sure you don't need the crazy puppets to get the 2nd ending as long you have the bear. The puppets just lets you get the encounter that gives you the item that retire big sad lock's healing

[@oflubber6712]

Really selling me on Gnosis here

[@marielcarey4288]

Gnosis is amazing, freeze and fragile debuff is really strong.

[@darkdude1996ify]

Perfumer's passive heal is way more useful than Ptilopsis's S2 imo. Perfumer's S2 also boosts her passive by a LOT, so in general it's more useful than Ptilopsis with her limited range. In general, I prefer Perfumer unless I already have passive healing from Relics.

[@ohhai9309]

I just remembered my attempt at he Jetman stage without any ranged ops It was a pain to say the least but I somehow kills him so... :DD

[@eclaireeeest]

The fact that I hate the Gnosis banner debut even more bcoz I invested 30-40 pulls that I saved to get Irene and the jerk didn't even come home to me. I love the frozen CC so much so whyyyyy~ Should've just saved them for Irene T_T

[@CindyM000N]

who could replace Gnosis here ?

[@nickli1487]

how did you get over 500 in the investment system and only lv65? I'm lv 90 with only 160.

[@telstraroenssel3701]

probabaly did a lot of support start run, invest, then abandon or fail the run

[@brandenp09]

Mana Khemia bringing back some memories
