Don't you guys just hate it when you accidentally messed up on an other wise perfect challenge mode run? Then you have to risk a ton of sanity to go through it again with a frustrated mindset which makes you mess up more.

[@tomywijaya2442]

Or when you success beat cm until you realize is training mode I did once on MB ex7 cm on middle night after done I close game I didn't notice I didn't get originate I was sleepy and I forget is training On morning I confused why I didn't clear yet 😂🤣

[@untemperance]

The server timed out and refused my EX-8 CM clear after I spent 30 minutes stalling yesterday. I hadn't even messed up.

[@Banonymous-]

During the Dusk event this happened to me it was really easy but I kept forgeting and messing up the "Bait Free's Ink, and the Surtyr part near the Blue Block

[@Fesax69]

I think it'S worse when I perfectly clear 2-4 times using practice mode but on the actual run I fuck up twice or so

[@untemperance]

Yes, it's a bad mechanic that's like that Because Gacha. It goes against the very design of Arknights which is about fine tuning strategies and iterating on them. The Sanity loss/drill plan loss is just punitive for no reason, it's artificial ""difficulty"" or more accurately, tedium, and if you asked me we'd take away the drill plan system altogether and maps would cost nothing until you actually clear them. Even a game like Alchemy Stars that I feel is much more poorly designed at least knows to make all its non-farming maps cost 0 AP whatsoever.

[@wrathfirex]

This is why Arknights for me will be my go to mobile game. It's 100% fair (except when you want waifus or husbandos) you can use 3-4 stars and even borrow 6 stars to complete stages. I mean you and other KZbinrs such as Eckogen and Kyostinv are proof of this. Well done~!

[@Kairu_zulkf]

its insane how you manage to clear this level with low level opt. I wasted 300 sanity with eyja chen and firewatch to clear this

[@kukkikaze]

I spent my sanity to create an easy guide for you all, so being familiar with my guide helps to improvise and think of how to do it on lower levelled accounts.

[@TheyCallMeDio]

Reminds me of that one time when he had to handhold someone with a 2-block Saria

[@shlhu]

My account is level 54 (started end of 8/28), similar op levels, and got the clear earlier today. I've found eyja core to be easier to manage bc she can clear more of the map at once and make it so you have to spend less on tanking boss, so less time to make a mistake. My tank squad was e1 55 Ansel, e1 30 hibiscus, e1 70ptilopsis, and e1 70 Hoshi. The Angie talent was what made the healing enough

[@kevinaxl6144]

i complete it with cuora E1 60 max trust, cuora can manage the boss damage, the prob is the medic must always ready to heal from almost zero to 100% every time

[@forget3100]

Apparently the secret tech is the Dominion fog debuffs enemies too. Source: I Love Amiya's 3 star only run.

[@TwoSouthFarm]

Sincerely wish more people interacted with the mechanics more often because I'm sure many people are still unaware of this niche interaction. Another thing that is worth mentioning is that EB always casts Collapsing Fear after 5 melee/ranged attacks. As long as you know how many normal attacks EB has dealt, you can afford to choose not to retreat "fogged" operator as soon as EB cast Collapsing Fear to maximize the damage you can deal. Oh and yes! EB only casts Collapsing Fear globally when he loses his Stage 1 HP pool, meaning that any "fogged" operator outside of EB's normal Collpasing Fear's affect range won't be forced to be retreated becuz they are indeed too far away for EB to do that (This is probably the most widely known mechanic of EB among the 3 I mention here). Overall, I love EB. A very fun boss.

[@enterchannelname7395]

Just go to ak wiki page about EB, it is stated after EB die the fog will debuff enemies

[@forget3100]

@@TwoSouthFarm EB sounds like a very well made boss, but as a person who owns Exusia, learning the boss wasn't needed.

Also congrats on beating the stage dude! Holy shit, that was sooo exciting to watch not gonna lie. I know its stressful for you and the acct owner but for us its really damn entertaining. The anticipation the suspense the thrill! I started 3months ago and whaled a bit and it was still difficult for me even with meta operators. I wasnt a believer that you dont need meta to beat this but now that youve showed me, my mind is blown! Arknights really is f2p friendly

[@utsuhoreiuji6155]

holy smokes this is impressive I used 2 E2 unit(M3 ejya and M2 SA) and i barely passed the game (while also toasting my brain in the process, like literally i can feel my smooth brain slowly cooks itself from inside out just to pass this game)

I wasn't there at the stream, but hot DAAAAAAAMN this is some kind of miracle.

[@diddoess]

Was there for the stream, definitely was a hype moment when he beat it

[@haveiszalfaroqie1628]

You showed it yourself, Kukki. The key to stalling the Boss's phase 2 is keeping Cuora's HP at 100% as long as possible. If you can't, Cuora skill 2. You should've alternated the medics' skills and Cuora's skill for continuous stalling (also as one of the sub mentioned it, retreating Gummuh removes a healing power to Cuora). But in the end, you beat the stage. GG!

[@valornium]

wish i could have caught the stream, this woulda been hella fun to watch!

This is an incident where a human uses 101% of their brain

[@DmtryAtroz]

It's weird, i was introduced to the "steal heal" concept in OD EX 8, at the last phase of that boss i failed like 5 times in a row because i was stubborn and wanted to keep Dusk on the field to help me wave clear until the boss self destructed. Turns out that Pincecone is way more op than i give her credit and she + Blaze managed to sustan all the waveclear needed In that stage i had to use a weird, double AoE healer + Saria heals + Jaye heals, only then i was able to survive, i was pretty amazed

[@Desticy]

It's possible to clear with this team, just requires use of fog and more healers, WD-EX-8 CM has been cleared with a full 3 star team. The thing with Dominion Fog is that it can debuff enemies as well, this is how you use your advantage of the dominion to be able to clear with 3 star only.

Makes me wonder if I got lucky. I’m level 45 with most of my units being around e1 lvl 35 with my only six stars being eyja and nightingale, which I didn’t use and I managed to pass this cm stage without using any 6 star besides silver ash support unit

[@cheesegan4070]

One thing I have to point out: Ansel has 2 extra tiles range when his skill is up. I put Ansel on Sus location to reach the defenders in the centre lane.

[@kukkikaze]

I rather not do that, in case Ansel heals Gummy instead of Cuora and cause the run to fail. That was the reason why I chose him in the way that I did. I think it doesn't matter however, since my Ansel already has Perfumer and Cuora in range, so I also run the risk he heals Perfumer instead. Give and take, maybe both would have worked.

[@cheesegan4070]

@@kukkikaze actually I was thinking of the early waves of Bear n casters. It might be less DP needed since Ansel would be able to help the defenders hold the line.

Not failure, just need to take your time to love your team and enemies more, to know them inside out

[@tempota7792]

Stallknights is the name of the game. Ofc, nobody is expected to have fking FIVE built defenders, so I borrowed an E2 Saria. This Support system remake was a god sent. Could borrow the same unit ad infinitum, and can add friends even before stage completion. That Saria and 2 healers kept the boss busy long enough for my SA to redeploy his way around the map like 6 times total lmfao. And then, at the very end, bc I fked up and put Mudrock in the fog early, to spend her whopping 49 DP early then gain it back while I'm stalling, I let the boss go at 15% and he 1-shot Mudrock across the wall on the left side. Now I'm down 2 defenders. But a clutch Saria+Gummy combo, plus the striker standing in the fog, stabilized the bottom right lane long enough for SA to continue doing his world tour lol.

[@tempota7792]

So, in case you didn't know yet, the fog also slows down the enemies once the boss has been killed. You can use that to neuter the last 5 strikers at the end. Stalling the boss and killing him w E2 meta units is no problem; holding 5 elite strikers at once with 99 DP is the real challenge. If you'd put 2 ST healers on the middle right island, you could even make do with 3 healing defenders as well. 2 on the outer Lanes, 1 in the middle, 2 on the inner side Lanes.
