Zwei Ishmael is absolutely incredible. High tankiness, stagger protection, good clashing for a defensive ID and above all the best redirect in the game have made her my favorite ID in the game. Before that was Dieci Rodion (unga bunga, also fucks up the damn bull like none other). I love the aesthetic (big ass sword) and the sound design (big ass thwack). Her skill 3 hits like a freight train considering we're looking at a defensive ID. You can slap her onto any team and she'll do good work, even better when she's with either tremor IDs or Zwei Gregor and Faust. She has me very excited for non-fraud Zwei Sinclair.

[@vonRubentroph]

Tested her on my second attempt on RR4, she goddamned tanked almost all the enemies EGOs while the other got staggered and then hit them with her godly greatsword Her S3 really hits like a high speed freight on loose tracks

[@alexanderkosten7611]

Sloshing Ishmael died for not only your sins and ESGOO's sins, but the sins of every other non-base Ishmael ID.

[@sealyaggington7488]

If you value damage, she isn't the best tank. Over the course of a fight, she will do less damage than HarpoonCliff or Dieci Rodion because most of her skills (minus ofc the S3) lack insane numbers or any form of damage bonuses. She also often will spend a turn guarding instead of attacking. However, there's something to be said about the insane ease of use to Zweimael. She can clash well basically every turn, and can reach her peak damage without hardly any effort. When actually taking damage, I'd rather have Dieci's thick shield, but with Zweimael you can just avoid taking damage altogether.

[@archang2719]

Honestly, Ringsang is... a weird case. Is he strong? Yep. Is he absolutely OP? Yeah. But that attributes not to his exact kit per say, but to the fact that he's literally mechanically broken. What I mean is, PM did an oopsie by giving him a conditional on S2 that just doesn't exist with how easy it is to fulfil even outside of a bleed/mixed team. For those who don't know, the "haha I fcking hate Yi Sang" message mentioned was actually them attempting to fix it by making Ringsang's S2 conditional into... well, a *conditional*, also give his S3 a dynamic damage adjustment. But sadly, this was nipped in the bud because people got whiny about it despite the fact they wouldn't even lose anything. His S1 and S3 are strong, yeah, but not overly so. And I think if PM went through with the nerf, Ringsang would be on Lament Yi Sang's level or above right now, where tbh he actually should be.

[@lordpumpkinhead265]

Thankfully we don't seem to be getting an influx of IDs that are on par with Ring Yi Sang's power (at least not until they're at max strength), so him causing absurd powercreep hopefully won't be an issue.

[@meeszijlstra5426]

The changes were also nipped in the bud because of the precedent it would set. Nerfs in a gacha game are a VERY touchy subject, and that's putting it lightly. Like think of the morality/legality for a moment. People pay money to roll for this unit, luck out and get the unit, motivated partially by the unit's power, and then the company can theoretically lower the unit's power, or just nerf it into the ground. Now, I don't think the proposed changes are a big deal, but it's a precedent that gacha companies in general want to avoid.

[@funninoriginal6054]

​@@meeszijlstra5426this. No matter how PM slices it, fact is that they basically shot themselves in the foot with some ID kits and no one's gonna like if the ID they spent money and resources for gets nerfed. IMO the best way to tackle this is when uptie 5 rolls around, since it's once again gonna give an opportunity for weaker IDs to catch up

[@boxtupos7718]

I run a 5 man Sinking Team, had to slot him in because Don needs to be ran in the current Canto (I literally have 0 3 000 Don Id) HE CAN OUTDAMAGE WILDHUNT HEATHCLIFF... IN FUCKING CHAIN BATTLES WHERE WILDCLIFF SHINES

[@archang2719]

​@@meeszijlstra5426 From what you say, the main issue pertains to those who spent money to roll for Ringsang because he's OP (those who got him for non-gameplay reasons would, obviously, have much less issue with the nerfs). However, if we're talking about that topic, then it's important to take into consideration the other factors as well: 1) Those players would get 250 boxes as a compensation, which equals to getting any 000 ID in the game, including some of the most OP ones, entirely for free. And that's while keeping Ringsang who would still, as I say, be on a higher power level. 2) As you said, this is something that gacha games avoid. Why? Because in other games of that genre, gacha is, give or take, the *only* method of getting a character. However, limbus is different in that regard as you have an ability to get IDs outside of gacha, by using resources that you can earn in-game with little to no issue. In that regard, limbus is closer to live service games which have characters that you can buy with in-game resources (and donate for) get balance changes or even reworks. Of course, one could speak of genre differences, but the core is the same. That's why I think it would be entirely viable if PM would go through with those "nerfs" and that the player base massively overreacted, leading to us having a mechanically broken unit that should not be like that in the first place.

I'm realizing now that Wildhunt is actually the RM page in design. You start in a weaker form where you have to babysit a little, then after a couple good turns you turn into a monster that gets stronger and stronger as you get more and more kill, gaining a mass attack, and having a conditional that lowers your sanity if you can't find a target to beat up.

[@lordpumpkinhead265]

Pulling on Heathcliff's banner would be the smart move since even if you don't get Wild Hunt, there are MANY other good Heathcliff 000 IDs you could get. Faust really doesn't have many good IDs to aim for, so using your resources in hopes of getting one specific 000 unit amidst a lot of mediocre ones isn't great odds.

[@Thunderdroceon]

I'm a relatively new player (Initially played for only few hours at anniversary but returned last week) and I was wondering if it would be worth it to shard Captain Ishmael, Harpoon Heathcliff and Blind obsession. Literally for no other reason other than they all look cool to me. I'd still get Fluid Sack for Faust first since I've heard its a very good ego but I wasn't sure if I'd be wasting my shards on getting those above. I just beat Canto IV if that means anything.

[@lordpumpkinhead265]

@@Thunderdroceon Harpoon Heathcliff is a very good ID to shard for, and is one of his best IDs. Captain Ishmael is difficult to use due to her unique SP loss mechanic. Every time an ally kills something above her current level, she loses 10 SP. This doesn't make her a bad ID, in fact she's more than capable of dealing with many things, but she isn't the easiest to use and does require a bit more attention than the standard ID. Blind Obsession is a VERY good EGO, and will help significantly when running Railway 4 if you get there before it closes (which you should be able to since new Railways usually open about halfway through a season.)

Dieci Meursault got massive buffs in Canto 7. Unbreakable coins are pretty common on some enemies, with the highest I've seen being an attack with THREE unbreakable coins on it and four total coins. Given that very specific, fact, Dieci Meursault is actually currently competitive with BLsault, as his ability to just perpetually provide shields to Rodion and Hong Lu (when he needs it) gives a lot more staying power. Atop this, he's just plain good at clashing. For literally all other content, it's no contest, BLsault is just *better*. But with the sheer volume of unavoidable damage being thrown around at points in Canto 7, Diecisault's ability to mitigate it gains a ton of value.

[@lordpumpkinhead265]

Except for the fact that BL Meursault can straight up negate death thanks to Swordplay of the Homeland. It might only be once per turn, but he can absolutely refuse to die if need-be so long as you have a Pride-based team.

[@ZAYKONN]

I'll always advocate for Maid Ryoshu being the most solid ID. Ever since it's release it has been my go to Ryoshu ID against Abnormalities due to how her Evasion works. It also unironically helped me understand how Evasion works, how you gotta point at the first skill used in multi-enemy battles and how it completely nullifies certain enemy skills that'd just kill you by simply "not clashing". Using her Evasion on the first turn to essetially skip it and then restart it with max SP and 2 Skill slots is fantastic and it probably makes her the best "Soloist" and the most safe option for fighting thinhs such as Walpurgisnacht events (Altought she can't 100% the first one). I do hear people say she doesn't deal that much dmg compared to W.Corp or Spider, which makes sense for a self-sustaining poise ID, imagine she had a D.D.E.R. with a natural 1.2x Dmg mult., it'd be pretty dumb. Regardless, she still has the easiest conditional AoE Skill and an S3 that clashes well and hits for not so much lower than D.D.E.R. & Serious Skullbuster. I'll also leave a honorable mention for BL Yi Sang for being a good ID even before Kim Mersault was a thing and 7Faust for having one of the most consistent S2 I ever tried and also being really funny after you grab Thunderbranch++ on MD.

[@froyooi]

he made this video and then theres going to be a busted id right off the bat

[@synchrophrenia]

• While I haven't finished watching the video (duh) I just want to say that the three best ways to tell if an ID is going to be busted is 1: ridiculous coin amounts 2: coin reuse and 3: attack weight (Think about every overpowered/most strong IDs in the game and they all have at least one of these three descriptions.) (Also, every Walpurgisnacht 3 star except Red Eyes Ryoshu [and she makes that up with roll power] fills these conditions, hmm....) Edit: now that I've watched more of the video, I'd like to add one more condition: the ability to take damage AND benefit with something from taking that damage. Dieci Rodya gets blunt damage up, Queecliff gets 1% more damage up to 99%, BL Meur makes Claim Their Bones into Claim Their Entire Skeletons. (Zweishmael might actually dodge all four conditions, her only real thing is that she is incredibly tanky while also having great damage/rolls extremely easily)

[@sealyaggington7488]

You forgot about having ridiculously high damage bonus conditionals. That's why Zweimael's s3 is strong (though I always like to remind people that she tends to do less damage over the course of a fight than Dieci and HarpoonCliff).

This is unacceptable Zwei Ishmael slander. I will not stand for this. (Brought to you by the Zwei Ishmael solo gang) (Also love the video, see you in canto 7!)

[@aesthetic3355]

I literally just started playing limbus, rolled for love on red eyes ryoshu, 0 clue she was good, and got her and multicrack faust, only to then find out they are 2 of the very best Id's in the game, but this video helped me really understand why, and thats pretty cool Also as a newbie i think it would be really cool if Esgoo did one of these for 00 id's, since they are way easier to obtain/stumble into

[@aegisScale]

Yeah people sleep on 00s. They're nowhere near as flashy/silly as the 000s, but they're easy to invest in and help those 000s get to their ridiculous max potential. Hell, some 00s are just as if not sometimes more foundational to their archetypes than similar 000s (Seven Heathcliff/Lantern Don for Rupture, BL Don for the BL team, Ring Outis for bleed and MidSault for Envy Resonance come to mind). Even some of the less essential ones still have some neat traits which make them fun to use (West ZweiClair can keep a team grounded with his EGOs, Rosespanner Mersault and Yurodivy Ryoshu are fun tremor supports, W Faust, W Hong Lu and Crack Heathcliff are great charge supports, and KK Gregor can do some funny debuffs/heal the team with Garden of Thorns if you're feeling extra silly). Unless you're intentionally sifting through the garbage and investing in, like, Sloshmael, Chef Greg, old Zweiclair or the like, you could probably carry a team of 00s through every bit of content the game has to offer, which is one of my favorite parts about Limbus. You don't _need_ to have the best stuff in the game to see everything the game has to offer, but that stuff's there if you wanna flex/have a power trip.

[@Puffman728]

​@@aegisScaleIm thinking of doing a sinking MD run with Dieci Yi Sang instead of Solemn Lament/Spicebush just because I wanna have some fun doing synergy with my other Dieci IDs and im tired of SL always stealing the spotlight. Hell, thats not even his best 00 ID and it still has a use case, however niche it may be, and thats the best part

[@tomskeleton]

I don't know why you didn't talk about G corp Gregor, he's clearly one of the best in the game! I mean, every bug spits out 300 lunacy, and that guy is like 80% bug, so you can just milk him for 240 lunacy on demand. He can't be killed either, so you can just keep hitting him until lunacy falls out again and again. Crackcliff wishes he had that kind of resource gain for the team.

[@Vanessa80808]

Butler Ryoshu might not be the strongest ID but it is still my most used one, limbus is very versatile and unless you specifically go out of your way to only use the weakest id's you can use whatever you want and succeed.

[@goknba]

poor gregor, its like his existence was meant to be benched healing support

[@Zidane007stone]

Gregor is great at warming the bench. It's so warm that the dying IDs just get healing from the thought o

[@alfa1a765]

Back when I started playing this game, I saw you call out “charge bias”. It entertained me greatly. So I saved for Don and her sparkly pole. To this day, I enjoy my warp team. The next season might comparatively crush her into ruby dust. But she will be the last to fall, and pole in hand she won't go down without a fight!

[@kos0ideo953]

25:43 Why there weren't any words about Chief Butler Ryoushu? I mean, you can just oneshot 3 enemies with skill 2 on second turn

[@ФедотФедоров-е2н]

It seems like her best ID is severely underrated. How sad indeed

[@ashgrun]

esgoo said none of the gregor ID's are really any good on their own. then preist gregor happened.

[@kichiroumitsurugi4363]

And then he keels over and dies if he gets so much as a single Bleed Count

[@facundorodriguezrenna7144]

Finally, more content to not die during the update

[@pip2892]

Well done Esgoo, once again you have been struck by the curse and Cinq Meursault is insane

[@timofeydyudin4226]

32:24 me on my way to save ESGOO's wallet: "Boy's love Mersault!"

[@comfiestking6782]

Gregor is one of 4 (Now 3) sinners with 1 id short… so he’s definitely getting something this season My main worry is he gets 2 starred cus please he needs some id treatment like Devyat Rodya, Maidenless Heathcliff and Zwei Ishy. We need a 2 pager for Gregor

[@Rexyer1]

omg, I didnt know of the discard trick for Outis/discard in general. Now I can play her even better!

[@abyssbloodgazer6801]

Waiting for this video to be struck by the curse in the following hours, welcome back Esgoo

[@Paranomally]

I love being a new player and not fully understanding how the game works, makes it fun to find out I rolled the best character in the game in my first 10 pull. We love Ring Yi Sang out in these streets

[@bigdip0108]

ESGOO giving us LC content as we wait for season to drop what a guy

[@ikingof2]

it's finally here, he said he wanted to do this ages ago. it's finally here...

[@justagamer5536]

Gregor, most definitely received a good id (if you learn how to use it)

[@noishfanboy1141]

How does one use this new priest dude

[@withergamer4885]

​@@noishfanboy1141he's not hard to use

[@noishfanboy1141]

@@withergamer4885 from what I can tell he's another ramp up I'd who rapidly builds more bloodied hand. Iirc he has no way to spend ailing heart

[@withergamer4885]

@@noishfanboy1141 bloodied hand take a WHILE to ramp up unless you solo with him (which leads to more slots, more skills uses, one bloodied hand) His archetype is being a tank, he has an insane health pool and one stagger threshold, he also has a passive that makes him immortal for a turn if he took lethal damage (so the main idea is to get the stagger threshold removed early). As a bloodfiend id, he's a bloodfeast generator due to his insane self bleed. Using skill 1 and 2 allows him to get bloodied hand and ailing heart (shield gives 3 ailing heart). The more ailing heart the more life steal he has on hit but also makes his Sp healing passive work less. Only After getting 30 bloodied hand do you usually want to use that skill 3 (even better if he's not at full hp for the exra damage buff) because it makes it deal, SHIT tons of damage while also healing gregor practically to max.

[@boxtupos7718]

RCliff is surprisingly good in RR4 (Ofc, it's a nobrainer to fun Wildhunt there), but RCliff works well. A lot of the good buffs in RR4 is after the 6th Slot; So you can stuff RCliff into the speed slot, open with a fucking Quick Supression on an annoying unit you want off the battle. Then just kinda let him die, or use a Kings of Bind and just again let him die and be replaced. Quick Suppression should be able to 1 shot any ID in the game (Unless they're really tanky and resistant to pierce); It's how I dealt with that NClair that usually starts with a Self Destructing Purge, an unopposed Quick Suppression.

[@sealyaggington7488]

Besides section 1, I found myself running RCliff quite a bit (and I'm doing low turn clears between 40-45 turns long).

[@boxtupos7718]

​@@RelentlessStabbingGoBrrr... yes, that's the point you replace RCliff with another unit; It's taking advantage of the Chain Battle system You don't make him stick for 5 turns; He takes one unit out, maybe 2 or 3, then you make him die

[@boxtupos7718]

@@RelentlessStabbingGoBrrr ... Then why are we arguing about this? You clearly don't play RR There's a slot that bumps a sinner's speed up, you put RCorp Heathcliff there; His Quick Supression will almost always kill a sinner. Him being fragile is also an upside, because in the buffs after slot 6 is alway going to be better. His huge upside is that RCliff, unlike WildCliff needs no setup; It's why RCliff is still used in Low Turn Count runs in RR4. As an example, in part 2 of RR4 there's a NSinclair of loves doing S3 right off rip; So a good answer to this is burst him down with a Quick Suppression.

Bold to post this RIGHT AFTER maintenance

thank you for the baller video once again king

[@RyanSmellz]

PROJECT MOOOONNN GIVE GREGOR A GOD TIER BLEED ID THAT GAINS HASTE AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!!!!

[@asheramundson7231]

you can call DPS damage per scene and it would still be accurate i think

[@Jaynae.]

After being away from limbus company for a decent amount of time, this vid was very interesting to me because it did explain new mechanics that my overwhelmed brain just couldn’t comprehend on first read through (Also if u want precise details, Yi sang is my fav character so canto IV is where i started to lose steam after its story completely released. What got me back into limbus was Solemn lament Yi sang… i am very predictable in this and most of my teams will have a Yi sang as an active participant. On another note even when i wasnt playing i was paying attention to the story, Glory be PM and all that. Have to hold my sleeper agent title somehow)

[@wonderoffour4473]

I'll be watching and rewatching this untill the end of the maintenance.

[@twilighttricksterXXI]

This is a perfect release day for this video since season 5 will start in just a few hours. It also means that this vid will get out dated very quickly.

[@Krystal_G]

I love how my hype rabbit gremlin (why is the ammo refill uptie 4..) and problematic reindeer child (NO DON'T KILL YOUR TE- Not again) got mentioned as great Ids 😊.

[@letmedie.1690]

what i get from this video is if zweiclair manifested ego the original railway 3 team could have been saved

[@steingrenadier]

Butler Ryoshu was done dirty. Literally just a passing mention.

[@Levyafan]

Funny enough, my go-to strat with Dieci Rodion is to discard S3 and gain Insight 3 as soon as possible and then do the Eternal Discard Trick (like you mentioned with Dieci Hong Lu), because Insight 3 makes her S1 actually useable AND, while she loses out on her shield, she instead has the fun feature where Insight 3 allows her to randomly lose the entirety of one random negative event... EVERY. SINGLE. TURN. Enemy applied 25-11 Bleeding? The very next turn, it's gone already. Rupture? Gone. Sinking? Gone. Offense Level Down, Defense Level Down, Fragile, Bind? I sleep. Some effects are too persistent for that passive, but those are unique effects that would literally break a bossfight if Dieci Rodion simply no-sold them (like being Sewing Target for the Barber, or being sucked by a rose against Sign Of Roses). Makes a lot of bossfights a lot less frustrating, since I can trust at least one of my Sinners to be squeaky clean of any debuffs they might apply and also lets me use her to facetank stuff. Oh, and facetanking attacks also gives her DMG+ next turn, which is a nice bonus.

[@ZeroCrits]

Multicrack my beloved carried me through limbus company

[@John_Robertson_3rd]

Requiem is also good when you start off with it to ramp up sinking count since it gives like 5pot and 4 count

red eyes ryoshu is cool and all but i will never forget the time w ryoshu outclashed a high rolling corroded binds heathcliff in railway 4 using ddedr

[@adamf.430]

I hope they will introduce Gregor horse ID

[@celtickawaii57]

Gregor's due to get an ID somewhere down the line (we've had one teased at during the Japan Expo but I don't want to spoil too much for Canto 7; this ID *is* related to Canto 7 though and likely to be pretty tough, given who it is!). He may be our meta-defining Gregor ID!

[@chaoz7370]

Ngl, I think Devyat Rodya not even being mentioned in passing is a CRIME

[@SarcasticTentacle]

Feels bad that I missed out on multicrack Faust and manor Greg. Oh well, as a latebab at least I could make a funny resonance or poise team now

[@juggernautguy7442]

are you ready to update this video when fanghunt gregor is a z tier rupture id

[@skrypto2652]

to be fair, red eyes ryoshu does inflict 3 bind with serious skull buster

[@daneilgame123]

Before watching this video i thought that Dieci Hong Lu was pretty good but not great, and that hes only good at uptie 4 where he gets insight from other allies with discard, but then i found this video, heard that theres gonna be hong lu, skipped basically the entirety of the video, and now i actually know how to use him properly and holy hell hes now outdamaging even R Corp Heathcliff and yellow flower guy Yi Sang sometimes I decided to try to use him to solo abnormalities and its working REALLY WELL Absolutely shredding canto 6 right now
