This Is Fine

DV-EX-4 CM, Defender Only, First Clear
After 2 years, Defenderknights has finally fully cleared Dorothy's Vision. CM x2 cost is insanely hard for Defenderknights, but it's not impossible. In this case, by using all clever opening tricks we have (Shu S3, Noir + Friston, Jessica Alter shields) together with incredibly tight timings (to open, I pause and unpause in 100ms windows to hit skills and deployments asap) and Jessica shield SP RNG (Shield gives SP with 55% chance per hit, 6 hits out of 7 need to give her SP for ~9% chance), it's just barely possible to make it to the ending.
Clearing this map was very satisfying.
If I had to say one complaint, it's that the 6 mecha battle with limited DP is too easy with Penance S2. If they increased the mecha HP by another 20-40%, I would have had the chance to go all out and start testing out 8 or 9 op near permastall cycles with Saria S2 Blemi S3 Shu S3 Nian S3 Jessica S2 + Shield. This is something that would only be possible to consider because Shu's grass (18% Shelter + 85 HP/S) is incredibly good for large squad tanking. It's straight up the best large team tanking tool in the game by far and I really wish I had more opportunities to use it.

I cut out 80% most of the pause spam (you usually cannot see the differences in game between the two pauses 100 ms apart) but I kept some of it in, both to show the enemies moving a little instead of jank cuts, and also because I thought it would be more clear how tight the timings are. Sorry if the rapid clicking hurts anyones eyes

Tks

The edit is pretty good, congrats on the clear!

Do you play arknights in pc? If so, what program do u use?

It’s challenges like this that make Jessica’s screaming E2 art very appropriate XD

[@nevrankroaton]

It is very impressive because defenderknight has some really insane unit to make proper clear but any map with very tough early/DP restriction make it so so much harder for this niche than for like Sniperknight or Guardknight. Also our girl Jessica grew so much that she freaking held 3 lanes by herself, I genuinely think she has the most fun/interesting and "non broken" (even if very good) kit of all recent operators.

[@Zackery_Dempsey]

Definitely one of the most suspenseful clears I've seen; loved the opening. On a side note, the RNG was actually more favorable to you than the mere 9% you were thinking: it's 10%.

[@tumsYT]

My bad, I realized now I was looking at the probability of 6 successes out of 7 and not 6 or more which gives an extra 1.5% Nice catch

Oh god, I'm only watching first minute but Jessica's hold already made me feel things I didn't know I can feel.

[@Natsuke1104]

The wonders of Jessica's grip.

The music really elevates this clear to a whole ‘nother level!

[@ShakeyMac18]

Experts agree that the solo Jessica S2 lane-hold for 60s+ was fucking lit.

[@allyt6967]

This whole strategy is so creative.

[@Icarus-13]

I don't think I've ever seen Penance S2 used before. This is actually awesome.

[@hendrihendri3939]

It just cant get any tighter than this. Impressive. *Sorry, Childrens*

[@KalinajCrimer]

my brother in Christ, that beginning scared me a lot, but the BGM made it epic, as if the protagonist was giving his last decisive blow against the villain

[@nootnoot1537]

Very tight timing work, and you still have the audacity to wish for this stage to be harder😆. Stay awesome dude

Holy that is so satisfying. Thanks Tums!

Part of me is really curious if underflow will change defender knights opening moves by being a defender with arts damage built into her talent but I doubt she’ll be close to Jessica alter’s impact like here still great clear
