not very sure if it's a bug that got fixed or a new bug, but when any belopog character? using their normal actions to Skill or NA, and they reach the hit count for Engine with that action, they will not get AA'd despite being the highest dmg dealer. My speculation is that when they take normal actions their next action has not appeared in the Action Bar yet, so the AA couldn't manage to work properly

I don't really complain about this game mode too much because usually there are counterplays to things this game mode throws at you. But this is genuinely the most unfun boss to play against. She has a fuck ton of base hp so any source of hp inflating just makes her a big chonk with high base res, almost impossible to counter (victory boners or die), summons to dilute bounce dmg AND SHE FUCKING HEAL.

Adjacent Bleed dots debuff on death, dots bond amp this up by a lot, killl elite on plane 1 easily with this good boy right here. Also gives enemies spd buff so they go faster. 10/10 pls add him to the store

oh yeah right the +40 is on a seasonal advantage lmao

if you haven't tried it, I recommend you do because it feels so good hitting those Assist Skills consecutively

All you have to do is, pick 1 random dude to carry this emblem, die and win lol

90% winrate on SSS, some perfect clears, some none, 1 S because of bad rng on anti grav

I trolled 3 nodes in a row and somehow managed to get SSS lmao

As you can see in the video, I got 14 boots stacks before the 1st cycle ended. This is mostly biased towards Agy but I think every Firestorm Surges ramping comps also benefit by quite a lot, especially whenever there's dumb affixes like Heavy Footfall or Speed Alteration or Time Assassins and you need to get to the fight FAST

Just for context:
I banned all seasonal advantages.
I banned the use of 5 cost.
I banned all limited LCs (except for Hyacine because I forgot).
I banned DDD, 4 Eagle setup (except for RMC because technically they're not a limited character).
Unfortunately I cannot ban eidolons and my Tribbie is e1 + Robin is e2 so unluck ig.
Took me 2 days of trial and error and I have come to a conclusion "this is absolutely not how you are supposed to play, unless you wanna make yourself suffer"

unfortunately cannot disable e2 Robin and e1 Tribbie, but I nerf as much as I could. RMC gears are still on because technically not a limited unit

I’m the Agy wheelchair merchant so I hope I can sell y’all some of my good stuffs (tbh idk why I make a post to tell people how to play Agy lol). Here’s the what you might wanna know before you wheelchairing all over the place to a8 wc40 and beyond (probably).

Affixes you should avoid: Beyond Endurance, Time Assassin

Affixes you could avoid: Energy Disappearance, Self-Defense, Magma Bombardment, Speed Alteration, Syncronized Action

Environment: anything that helps with early boots or items or you can even go eco if you like

Investment: anything really but priority item > eco > = characters

Tip: Don’t auto too much (believe it or not, this comp actually takes skill to play lol)

Pic 1: Starting lineup for 1-1 and 1-2

- This thing is pretty much straight forward that if you could, you should go Asta Herta for +3 gold reward on Cat cakes lvl2. But if you do not start with either of them, feel free just to skip this step. But remember to take Agy, March, Huohuo and Yao Guang if possible

Pic 2: Greeding and busting: You should have shop lvl4 by 1-3 without spending any on shop exp

- In 1-3 and 1-4, you should go 2 AE, 3 XZ. This is generally better than 2 Dots since it is not as consistent. But if it is really dire and you have good Dots affixes then you can go for Dots. But back to the recommended start, yeah it guarantees 2 wins with minimal effort and cost.

Pic 3: The real game begins

- Sell everything not needed. Bust to shop 5 (if you poor) or 6 (if you are rich).

- Get Agy, Tribbie, Sunday, Sparkle at front (bonus point if Tribbie and Sparkle on 4 eagle + DDD), Huohuo and Hyacine at back. First supply node prioritize finding boots, characters don’t matter. You need at least 1 anti grav to play this. The reason Sparkle to front is because we need her to ramp Agy FAST (just remember every AV saved is many AV earned due to how the SPD > AV required to take action works), just check to see Sparkle’s AA on Agy or Sunday is better and be flexible. Hyacine is there purely for 3 Day Gods and 2 Heals.

- If everything goes right, you should be fine until 2-2 without spending too much (no need to get any star on anyone but Agy).

Pic 4-5: The mid game

- Try to stay above 50g for max interest and try to go shop 7. Then find 2nd anti grav and RMC + Energy Sail then retire Sparkle (you can pre-craft and put it on Huohuo). As for the 7th slot, you can go any Energy character (5E for dmg amp and aoe dmg), Anaxa (weaknesses and dmg amp) or Sparkle (dmg amp + vul). You should be fine until like 3-1, so no need spending unless absolutely needed. This time onward is where your skill matters.

- RMC is probably one of the highest skill required character to use in this mode rn. Just to keep it simple: 1 RMC ult gives just over 40% Mem charge, 1 Skill gives 13%, 1 NA is 3%, 1 Mem oraora is 5%+, 1 Huohuo ult is about 20%, 1 Sunday ult on other target is 13%, 1 Sunday Skill is about 6%, 1 Cyrene buff on Agy and then she hits gives ~10%, 1 Cyrene ult gives 3-6%, Agy/GM hitting gives like ~3%. You kinda have to pay attention to the number so you don’t overlap AAs. (Tip: if a character is at full energy and receives energy recovery effect, it won’t give Mem charge)

Pic 6: The late game. Go shop 8 or 9 only go 10 if you really need to or can afford it. You can start vul + amp maxxing or get defensive if needed. Personally I found offensive is the best defensive.

- Welt (core) for AV refund, action delay, Def shred, vul, SPD debuff and Dmg amp (just remember to give him Sail). Either send Tribbie to back or retire Sunday.

- Cyrene (core) (Perpetual is a MUST) for fast ramp, True Dmg, Energy funneling, buffs, refresh if GM dies (if GM dies and you have RMC, don’t be afraid to AA Cyrene for faster ult generation and top off Agy via Cyrene ult). Definitely send Tribbie to back if you get her.

All of these are optional or flexible:

- Yunli: best ST sustain (sorry memosprites).

- Robin: teamwide AA, faster ramp, Dmg amo.

- Topaz: 50% vul.

- Black Swan: 72% dmg amp (even more if you have Robin and put the buff on BS), 20% def shred, and 25% vul.

- E9: 30% vul

^All numbers are for 1* version, they will increase, except for Topaz’s vul.

Final words: Who should you get stars?

- Agy definitely go 3 but 2 can clear (or 1 if you are a crazy fucker)

- Welt 2 (better debuff numbers)

- RMC 2 better Def shred

- Cyrene is whatever

- Black Swan 2 (better amp and debuff numbers)

- Robin 2 (faster speed, more amp)

- Huohuo can go 2 or 3, better heal and energy funneling.

Yeah I think that should be it. Have fun drifting around in that ultra giga turbo ultimate wheelchair of yours LMAO.

This vul and amp stacking is just so satisfying when it hits
Therta e0s0 (jingyuan sig) if you guys wonder

Alright let's never do this again but here's any explanation if you guys wanna recreate this

I opened up with 2 Scholars on shop 3, so you get +3 gold on 1-3
I then used 3 XZ + 2 AE to clear 1-3 and 1-4 so I could get a bunch more interest gold and wait for 2nd normal boots on the first supply node
I then proceeded to sell everything not needed and go shop 6 and use front: Agy, Tribbie, Sunday and Sparkle / back: Huohuo, Hyacine
+ my Tribbie is e1 and Sparkle e0, both on DDD s5 so even with 1 anti grav I was able to clear diff4 encounter 1-7. Hyacine being there just for 3 Day Gods and 2 Heal, HH can sustain until plane 2 just fine
I got my 2nd anti grav on plane 1 boss and it's normal gameplay until 2-2 where I had to go shop 7 and found RMC + Welt and put them on Energy Sail and retire Sparkle, Tribbie to back
Then came Encounter 2-5 on diff 3 (can't find diff 4 sorry), got to shop 8, got Cyrene + Perpetual Engine, Black Swan for 72% dmg amp 20% def shred and 25% vul and Topaz for 50% vul, retired Sunday and Hyacine

Plane 2 boss was 3* red Fulwish and she straight up one shotting my Agy + GM, so I started playing smart with Welt and buy time for Agy to ramp and cleared her.

Then I went shop 9 on Encounter 3-5 (diff 4, Wealth Gem reward), got Yunli for extra ST sustain. Now this was the part I sat down for 2 FUCKING HOURS to figure out how the fuck could I win this. It was a 153 difficulty red node with Black Tide enemies and the first 5 fuckers to show up were the corrupted beast that uses 2 aoe beam (that one shot GM and kill the entire team if 2 beams happen) on first action + 2 high star Archers . So I had to play the game where I used 95% of my remaining brain power to win (details too long, if you wanna know, just cmt)

After that was just a comedic relief of Ichor boss LMAO

Fun challenge tho, thank you u/Nemesis233

15/15, almost trolled a bit at 2-5 with diff4 encounter, even got Owlbert on plane 3 but decided not to because it invalids the run. Cleared Blacktide enemies on 3-5 diff 4. Agy is staple lmao
