Rainbow 6 Doc and Iana | Arknights Operator Spotlight

[@Fizzyon71]

There was a mistake on 6:25 S2 heals 600% --> 750% of Doc's ATK S1 heals 300% --> 400% of Doc's ATK sorry for the confusion

[@KyuubiDragon4]

Oh cool, I never considered thar Doc's S2 Barrier could be used in place of Shining's S3 to survive an Aak buff. That's super useful to know.

[@daidai_kawaii]

You can also do a similar thing with Silence the Paradigmatic and her S3, but the point about Doc being cheaper with faster skill cycling (and in this case 3 uses vs Silence's 2) still remains

[@NearoC]

@@daidai_kawaii For some targets Silence S2 can also infinitely work with Aak, but sadly it's only for medium squishy ops instead of quite the same magnitude as Doc.

[@notusneo]

Iana is actually an ambusher in disguise

[@Fizzyon71]

Definitely!

[@rechtsguy4005]

I like all of the R6 collab ops since I play a fair bit of R6 myself. Tho I don't like Doc's kit at all. His talents are nice, but the first skill, it's not that impactful and yet it's limited. My suggestion to fix this is upon the 4th activation, he still gets the attack speed buff but doesn't get the healing bonus. That way, he'd still be useful to keep on the battlefield instead of retreating every 3 activations

[@Fizzyon71]

I like that idea!

[@fermosofiore1336]

Yeah iana ftw

[@sharkz401]

This banner cost me greatly on specialist chips.

[@ziyanas7711]

I mean yeah, I guess "Fun" were the best way to play the game. Call me masochist, but I think it's more fun to use non-meta op or low rarity op than use something that will vaporized everything with single touch.

[@abrahamwijaya6631]

I'm more to realize that using low end is like walking before we run. It does hard but the progress make us stonk

[@Fizzyon71]

Using meta operators gets boring after a while and non-meta ops adds a layer of challenge that I find quite fun

[@BigGachaAddict]

Absolutely agree with your opinion. I dislike how most EN Arknights players are so obessesed with the meta they just aggressively bash all non-tier 0 ops as well as anyone who thinks otherwise This game requires a functioning brain, not an "arm race" mindset that constantly forces you to save for braindead ops instead of actually playing the game

[@ziyanas7711]

@@Fizzyon71 yeah, it's also help me to understand what each archetype niches in general. (thank to random video that popped up out of nowhere) not only that, they also cheap to build, while bring same utility. even tough they won't smite an enemy in instant.

[@ziyanas7711]

@@abrahamwijaya6631 it is hard, especially for a newbie like me who only knows that "Reroll for mountain or thorns and your early-game will be more bearable" and beside that, I completely had no Idea what to do. even, I was stuck in that stupid early stage with big chunky armored enemy that sent my mountain to Oblivion with single touch while mountain barely scratch that guy (you know, that one stage where you need a caster and supporter)

[@Bunnymisu]

A fun use for Doc I've been experimenting is Doc + a Crusher Operator. The two together can block more enemies than usual with Doc taking advantage of his +20% ATK when attacking enemies not blocked by himself. His S2's massive heal can practically fully refresh the crusher's HP pool. Another, far smarter, use of his S2 is on Gravel for a free Gravel, saving you that massive 5 DP and excruciating sub-20 sec redeploy time. Iana is the first Dollkeeper I leveled. I struggled at first getting use to the fact that Iana has no block and that she needs her skill up before transitioning into "doll" form so no using her as a lighting rod. I got use to her kit when I stopped treating her like a dollkeeper and more of an ambusher. Started placing her in lanes that don't feature a lot of enemies to allow her skill to charge and apply fragile when attacked. Also I hate those invisible snipers too. They caused me to think her S2 has to be manually activated because their stun would cancel her skill activation before transitioning.

[@Fizzyon71]

Iana is an ambusher hiding in the dollkeper archetype XD

[@tridentgreen3346]

119 pulls for Ela, but I love how Iana plays. Already M6'd her and I'm going to module her today. Sadly just missing the pot for the last 2% fragile.

[@DisIngRaM]

Thx for the informative video, Doc kit had always seems strange to me, which prevented me from raising him.

[@Chordat3]

I immediately promoted Iana upon getting her. Such a strange but fun operator lol.

[@rabies6418]

love how collab ops tend to stand out in their class! very unique

[@Raptchur]

I love Iana. M6'd her. But the taking a hit before skill is ready is a bitch lol. It happens a lot when there are ranged enemies. When dollkeepers switch, does it count as newly deployed op? Seems like she gets targeted by ranged a lot. It's kind of crazy how much thought has to be put into placing her with how little the payoff is. But i love her design and i love the uniqueness. Her S2 should last the 20 seconds though. Really dumb that it doesn't. Not like it would be op or anything seeing on how it doesn't get an atk multiplier aside from the 15% from module.

[@blackhammer5035]

Yeah, the frustrating thing isn't that your S2 takes time to charge between swaps, it's the 10-12 seconds of time after s2 runs out and she sits there doing unremarkable damage to a single target.

[@Raptchur]

@@blackhammer5035 Yeah which makes her getting hit and losing the next activation even more painful.

[@jackmaverick6268]

On my way to build all 8 r6 ops

[@Fizzyon71]

Let's gooo

[@delirare]

R6Knights

[@blackhammer5035]

I'm most of the way there (didn't play the first R6 event run) and have been using them in the events and Integrated Strategies. They make a reasonable team for any content that doesn't need Arts damage.

[@fishchips5121]

both sets of team rainbow ops have been so much fun to use. Only exception is Fuse but maybe I just haven't figured him out yet.

[@Creation-tv8kq]

They may not be meta, but theyre still great!

[@selensewar]

Iana my beloved.

[@Fizzyon71]

"Our" beloved

[@pikachutobal]

13:13 I know you wanted to say Kazemaru, but at this point even operators at different archetypes are better than Tsukinogi

[@thatkidfox]

small thing worth noting, Iana hasa larger substitute range (like phalanx) and can hit air units (like bena) niche but important

[@evanderpantillano4995]

i feel week i got 55k left over since acquiring alls r6 ops but wasted that on blue kernel

[@moses9974]

same bad luck as your pulls, 120 to get her, spooked by qiubai and kal

[@WintersTheSixth]

"funny that a doctor is offensive oriented" here's the thing about doc tho that's his most iconic line "Sometimes the only way to save a life is to take one"

[@ZeHeavyArmor]

Doc has basically 4 talents in 1 if one nabs his base module lol.

[@idk-what-to-namethis]

Good video but you got the numbers on docs skills mixed up at 6:25

[@Fizzyon71]

Shit, you're right Edit: thanks for pointing that out

[@ElevatorIsStuck]

Well the banner ended a week ago

[@abrahamwijaya6631]

Btw does fuze will get video too?

[@Fizzyon71]

Nah, sorry

[@abrahamwijaya6631]

@@Fizzyon71 k

[@blackhammer5035]

Fuze is just good, needs little explaining. Centurion/AoE Guard is a very strong archetype, so he’s good based on that alone. His ranged damage resistance is handy, his S2 is gimmicky but has good numbers for buffing, and his s1 is solid for general use. If you don’t have Blaze he’s pretty nice. Specter’s better, but only if you need the burst or immortality on her s2. His s1 is handy for parking him behind a 1-block unit like Eunectes or NTR so he can provide damage at range while using his 3 block to hold enemies for the other to kill.

[@eveakane6563]

I'll just keep Iana to S1M3. Her replenishing landmine thing is more fun than ASPD+ skill.

[@fruitpunchyoutube6794]

[@nicksugoi9366]

Non-meta my ass all operator is good it's depend on doktah to utilize

[@kosmosXcannon]

3:04 "I'm a doctor, buuuut." The funny thing about doctors, they might know how to save lives, but on the flipside they would also really know how to kill people. Also, if they were so inclined on doing, torture people as well. I think there was a sect of doctors from one of the Crusade Wars, where they were primarily doctors but also fought in the Crusades. If I remember correctly despite their location and population, they held onto the area pretty well.

[@FatCrowOnAStick]

Sad that i didn't get iana but at least i can mess around with doc's absurd shield
