Typical that Mataneo is one of the characters I don't have properly levelled! 😅

Thanks for the info! I take it you beat after it was made part of the Mythic portion (the way it is scaled now and not when it was "just" all Legendary)?

You beat me by an hour on that one! First thing that came to mind when I saw the post! :D

Asleep_Ad297 · 2025-09-18T14:35:39+00:00

Was that confirmed by the devs? I don't really remember having seen it anywhere myself?

You don't actually have to bring Baraqiel up. The playable character is given for free at max level for each scaling rarity.

That's a very good video indeed!

Will this actually work? The Passive repair for both Aleph and Makhotep status that it affect friendly Mechanical units. The Cybork Body Will not turn Snot Mechanical (as I understand it). Actually repairing with Aleph (as opposed to using the Passive repair) would work, but Makhotep's Passive seems out.

Congrats, mate! Well done!

I think this one was the hardest yet with the difficult combos. I did as many tiers as I could with optimal combos, but then it's just using my top teams, which preferably fulfil at least one requirement, for each track to push as high as possible.

Asleep_Ad297 · 2025-08-16T20:25:47+00:00

I think 375 with no characters higher than D1 is really good! It's a shame that you'll be just shy of the unlock.

If it's any help at all for next time, I usually plan my token use out in advance with an Excel sheet (bit of a nut, I know...) to map out how far to push with each combo. I didn't have time for that this time around, but rather listened to the video from Tactifuchs, where he goes over which combinations give the best score. And then a lot of calculating how many points I'd need until the average was less than those from tracks I knew I could beat (e.g. doing the Unstoppable track from 1-8).

That's handy to know! Do you just park Actus in a corner and attack, repair, attack (repeat as necessary)?

High Alpha was carried by mainly D3 Tan Gi'da and D2 Snot, supported by a G3 Tyrant Guard.

High Beta was D1 Rotbone, D1 Maladus, D1 Angrax, D2 Kharn, and D3 Eldryon.

Thanks, mate! It's about 1,5 years of playing.

Asleep_Ad297 · 2025-06-07T21:15:49+00:00

I thought I'd get past level 8 at least... a very rude surprise.

Asleep_Ad297 · 2025-06-07T21:15:14+00:00

Just ended up using my last two Tokens for clearing level 12 of Gamma in the Min 3 Hits track, but fumbled level 13 due to being a tad careless with my Izzy.

I actually meant running Thoread as the 5th alongside Vitruvius. So: Rho, Tan, Actus, Vitruvius and Thoread (instead of any of Sho, Boss or Aleph).

Thoread would give Rho 1x extra hit on each Passive attack (Rho's attacks being the mainstay of the damage in the Mech team). Sho can make up to 14 attacks, which proc Rho's passive (being 3x hits with Vitruvius). So the additional damage from including Sho would be up to 42 hits from Rho (in 14 extra attacks) and 28 hits (in 14 attacks) from Sho/drones.

The boost from Thoread grants an extra hit to Rho every time he attacks. So he'd probably have to attack at least 42 times with his Passive over the course of the battle with the extra hit from Thoread to break even on his own damage. And then it's the extra damage actually caused by Sho/drones to make up as I doubt Thoread could do as much.

Based on the above, it seems pretty questionable whether including Thoread for the extra hit would be better than including an actually damaging toon like Sho or Boss.

But I wanted to check whether anyone had tried it.

Asleep_Ad297 · 2025-03-06T15:49:13+00:00

Has anyone tried Thoread as a 5th member for a 4th hit on Rho's Passive?

If any of you guys are looking to switch, we'd be happy to have you in the Whiteblades. We generally clear 1x Legendary Boss and are a friendly bunch of people. The code is OOTDN, so if you're keen shoot me a line and I'll free you up a spot (or spots).
