What Am I Supposed To Do In Arknights!?

[@twizzay473]

So he’s just not gonna bother with medics.

[@cemanz]

I mean he only placed medic when one of his operators low on health

[@astro2372]

He's already got silence and supah so ig it's alright 😭

[@twizzay473]

@ he not gonna deploy them?

[@nabi7701]

To be fair, that's a very valid tactic when used by a competent player. Healers don't matter when you can just eliminate the enemies faster or bring more utility to handle specific problems better. A lot of high end content clears have zero healers or just 1. Emphasis on the "competent player" part though. Of you're inexperienced spamming healers is a good enough strat for most early story stages.

[@Sweet3nE]

​@@nabi7701when you want to clear an harder stage, you may have the suitable account progress to clear without healer by using heli-drop strat, pseudo immortal units, crowd control, push... But when you are relatively new to the game, you have no access to these means. in that case, healers are mandatory in every squad

[@godo9358]

- Who could we possibly grab to complete that level? >picks 34 DP unit - It surely would work, wouldn't it

[@Shallie]

I mean Penance can technically solo 6-5 and thats a 36DP unit (you do need some DP help in the start)

[@VectoRaith]

​@@Shallie Yeah, but he will need E2 M3 Myrtle to succesfully tank those originium-throwing bs during the DP printing process.

[@Shallie]

@@VectoRaith my main point was that high DP cost is not necessarily an issue if you can play around it

[@godo9358]

@@Shallie C&C is at a stage in his path where he can't deploy ranged units out of throwers range i think it's still too early to talk about Solo clears unless it's something like Mountain solo

[@Shallie]

@@godo9358 I mean yes absolutely lol, I personally prefer to see his chaotic way of playing anyway haha

[@Dr.SoloWing]

Spot/Gummy/Nearl are healing defenders, they offer support and can take on smaller enemies, while "Velma" and Cuora/Bubble (both 4 star), are more like "pure tanks", high def that can go even higher with their skills, and they can take enemy elites and bosses with the help or a healer I love Nearl with all my heart, but I'd say you could use another more defensive tank like any of those two I mentioned. E2 one of them and you're pretty much set for a good while in this role

[@exosteI]

yea gummy/cuora is all you need really dunno why people are telling him to build nearl

[@anggarendy4129]

yup gummy with mini stun and being 4 star is clearly better than nearl, maybe its a new player things seing more star being better

[@anggarendy4129]

coura,gummy,and liskarm is already enough tanks i think for a new player

[@noiko4418]

keep telling him to build more tank, he will be full of tank with no dps. i would say build lappland which can kill alot of rock cencer tanker which regen. Also logos s1 is better than s2 most of the time but he lock in s2. If you see from 3:00 his mountain can't even outdamage the regen and only W alter doing that

[@cemanz]

@@Dr.SoloWing I love me some healing defenders, since they have a bit RES. They fall between Protector and Arts Protector. A good mix of both

[@kyubbikcat2281]

6-5 The range tiles on the top part are bait. The spearmen will always attack anyone on those range tiles first because it’s close. So range ops will be within spearmen range before your tanks. BUT, spearmen stand still when they attack and they bleed to death by themselves. Take this knowledge, and you shall experience victory.

[@robert_salazar]

Yeah, the only ranged ops that could survive there are Phalanx casters like Lin or...Carnelian. She's still not worth building since a defender works better, and you were about to borrow Mudrock.

[@III-jh5jq]

so 1 incantation medic 1 guardian and 1 lord

[@cemanz]

Placing medics beforehand might help instead of placing it when your operators health running low

[@nabi7701]

Yeah if you placed them when you need them, they will be targeted by enemies first as the last deployed operators.

[@jesusofsuburbia3675]

[@meep7605]

Uhh, you do realize who he has on his team right? He will just Walter all over the place and instantly win. He might struggle slightly with the redeployment, but as far as damage goes he will definitely just cheese.

[@wickeddave5148]

5:51 goofy ahh noise💀

[@Hurricane047]

Little tip for the stages with the spear throwing "lizardmen", Penance (defender) can basically tank them all day and keep them occupied until they die from reflected damage, even better they charge up her S3 which makes them hit themselves even harder.

[@ipatchymakouli415]

Penance (S3), or Hoshiguma (S2), or Mlynar (passive + aggro priority) all kinda work

[@aivenysfel2531]

​@@ipatchymakouli415 Lin too. Tbh I just user for tanking a lot of things like Patriot's spear

[@Vipertooth007]

Instead of telling him to use busted 6*s he should learn the game and just put Cuora/Beagle down and heal them.

[@Hurricane047]

has he built any medics besides silence?

[@SoulWhiteAngel]

I used to use silence back then

[@martokotka4524]

"we dont have another healer" the gummy ready to deploy : are you blind

[@Zero_Shift]

5:30 Youre supposed to do the same thing you did last stage. Stall with defenders while they are healed. Because physical damage in this game is not percential.

[@xivilius.]

8:05 he found the key 😂

[@LilyBannel]

Aww yea now we are getting into the "up yours" stages. Seriously some of these take so much planning if you don't have strong units. Congrats on solving some of the stages without using too much stamina. Looking forward to more.

[@GillianLou]

you vague explanation is what make him more stupid, though he didn't read 🤣🤣 the problem is he cannot differentiate between total tanker and support tanker, he's thought is tank is tank all the same... just like how you try to explain it now

if you feel like rolling, there's currently a banner up that has a Walter tier character, Degenbrecher (means Rapier breaker, you can just call her ol' rapie) her release was about as controversial as Walter's but unlike Walter, Degenbrecher is only unkillable for a few seconds during her skill + she has a german va so i forgive her lol

[@patroka]

It is kind of surprising how bad Wis’adel is at e1 lol. She has access to less than half of her kit Also, by the way, just finished the story and seems like her name IS Wis’adel. W was her temporary mercenary name, basically, and Wis’adel is her real name now. And she’d get mad if you called her W, lol- though it’s certainly understandable because of how hard it is to remember and pronounce Wis’adel

[@Star135ty]

My brother in christ, using medics is a better strategy then panic placing.

[@cemanz]

@@Star135ty what can you say to people that committed to "the less healer I brought the more DPS I could bring" in his early journey of Arknights

[@EtherSword]

3:35 Not sure if it mattered, but you can retreat the units that aren't doing anything (lappland and silence) and then you could put down amiya and kroos. To pronounce Nearl's name, it rhymes with Pearl.

[@zombieking3571]

Question: What do I do? Answer: Switch sides.

[@PitangerTrad]

6-5 is a famous stage for checking if you have built a defender that is tanky enough. Beagle can absolutely work, but you kinda need her at max level (and supported with a healer)

[@salter11z32]

Mudrock is the key you’re spot on 😂

[@astra475]

Again... deployment order matters and also 2 medics for stalling those "lizardmen" because those guys will not stop throwing spears until they or your operator dead

[@onursenduran961]

Arknights is actually easy. Beat any event stage without support. Auto replay it to farm event currency and buy everything in event shop which should give enough resources to upgrade your party. No skill needed to get stronger.

[@mugen4537]

Lmao I can’t get enough when Clay starts bickering with Lappland 😂 Interestingly on the other hand, in this situation, characters like Carnelian can help a lot

[@theanimeguy6985]

I like that he just forget the fact that the ones coated in a read aura loses hp over time

[@GillianLou]

even if he's not forgot i don't think it will change much anyway ... his "skill" still all over the place, the progress of him understanding the mechanic is slow 🤣

[@Han_Jie]

there is one way to completely cheese the top part of the 6-5 Just bring the caster Lin, not to confuse with Ling the summoner cuz she can just completely block the spear thrower dmg due to her barrier so you can just focus the bottom side

[@darkrealmlight92]

I think you have a little too many ranged DPS there. I usally bring two vanguard (one flag-bearer for DP printing and one pioneer for early landholding to counter weak but fast mobs), two snipers (one Marksman for anti-air and another of any Sniper subclass for pure damage), one single-target caster for Arts damage to counter high DEF targets, two defenders (either bring two protectors/guardian OR a protector and a guardian) and two medics that suits your needs. That's nine slots taken, leaving 3 empty slots for whatever else you need to supplement your team's success, like maybe one DPS with AoE trait to help counter hordes of mobs or an Executioner to assassinate high priority targets.

[@morpheus_000]

Just use Mudrock,most of time, it work.

[@kaguya169]

this is fun to watch i remember my friend suffer on this too when we started playing the game 2 yrs ago luckily hoshi was on my roster to tank thos guys and brought 4 healers, you just need to outheal the dmg given by those guys since they are on timer

[@averosa4444]

3:47 I remember a certain doujin, myrtle can block 3 big guys

[@yumakuga2066]

This stage would have been the perfect stage for Choco Mommy (carnelian) if he just built her somehow.

[@khol1611]

For 6-5, it's better to use Ground squad, & Defender healing (Guardian) to heal them.

[@landonhananta3845]

I recommend using the 1st skill of logos for better damage and multi target

[@lucacenacchi6627]

Pick ling and Place her on the ranged tile at the front of the Blue box. The Spear dudes gonna kill themselves on her

[@pavelkozlovsky6584]

Try using Lin(caster) from the support unit! Not only will she help you clear this lvl but you’ll also learn about some of the new mechanics and how to cheese this annoying guys!

[@HittingBandy]

ah yes... the infamous 6-5. While many people usually say the boss stages are the hardest parts of the chapter, 6-5 is basically a defense check. "Have you been building your defenders? No? Good luck have fun!" That is basically the stage.

[@LoathsomeWhiner]

You know, Carnelian is actually good for baiting attacks from these guys…but you need to build her, at least for a bit…and don’t activate her skill… Lin is another option - same type of caster as Carnelian, but with slight differences. -- Question: are you planning on completing Ch14? After this event ends, it will be closed until you complete Chapters 9-13. Getting Ciwilight Eterna, for completing Ch14, might be a good idea - she buffs attack and provides hp regen, which works on units that can’t be normally healed.

[@VectoRaith]

TIPS: put hi-DPS Guard in front of Defender (e.g Mountain then Gummy behind him). That way you can solve the idle Guard problem while preventing possible leaks.

[@mejakosu]

Those metal spear throwers are basically no joke. They can give even E2 tanks grief let alone the E1 tanks you're trying to win with. You're probably going to have to borrow a Lin (caster) or Penance S3 (defender) in order to get through this.

[@selensewar]

Ironically, Carnelian would've been perfect for this set of levels.

[@ONIGIRIKINGU]

so you can have 12 operators on a team so the golden rule is 2 Vanguard, 2 guards, 2 tanks, 2 castor, 2 snipers, 2 healers. Always place healers before and not when units are about to die.

[@b.a6525]

Dude build Nearl, yeah it costs but its worth the grind to minus the suffering

[@habilpratamaid9009]

what am i supposed ? read enemies info, know to aggro enemies attack range and farm Wisadel to E2

[@jakkab6689]

I feel like you're going to borrow mudmud a lot from now on. I was going to suggest borrowing mylnar but i don't think it'd end well😂. I feel like you're more suited in using operators that can defend and do damage at the same time. Using lin (caster) might be a good idea. You can safely put her anywhere and click on her s3 as a panic button if there were too many enemies.

[@tornic531]

On defenders, i would recommend giving Jessica Alter a try, she can summon a giant enemy distracting shield

@@bravo6going702 He didn't level Coura or Bubble, heals are useless if the operator getting healed have low defense. Hence why its troublesome to heal Crusher guards if they are tanking multiple hits since they have 0 def. Meanwhile Phalanx Casters have natural high defense when not casting due to their talent, so them tanking vulnerable range tiles are a good option. But anyway... he found Mudrock so his problem will probably the dp regen.

Please stop putting down healers last. Or any ranged units last honest except the rare ranged operators that are actually tanky. If you place them down last, they get targetted first. 99% of ranged operators are made of paper and die instantly, especially healers. Even most non tank melee operators are still more tanky than most ranged operators. So even placing someone like Lappland last would be better than placing ranged last.
