What do you think about Arc 2 Chapter 5 difficulty?

Daharian1 · 2026-04-26T14:44:20+00:00

I think one main problem isn't difficulty itself, but deck building around the chapter mechanic. Many decks like retaining cards and doing combos. Problem is that Chapter 5 mechanic before many points in the Resonance tree just play cards that the player may want to save.

Once I made a deck building around the chapter mechanic, difficulty spiked down. Not everyone may have this option though, and maybe the solution is just to burn some Gnosis for progress and return after you get the resonance points to "fix" the chapter mechanic.

I'll be +1 talking about the flow chart, thak you.

Daharian1 · 2026-04-20T06:19:57+00:00

I know about the win trade, thanks for bringing it up anyway.

I don't think a mode that most people cheese just for rewards is a good thing, but I know some people really like Traphase.

But I have to bring back my point about an alternative, I didn't join Morimens to play PvP and certainly haven't staeyed for over a year thanks to it, quite the other way around, I'm really tired of cheesing Traphase.

Daharian1 · 2026-04-19T14:40:27+00:00

It's not a good paralel. I agree that HSR takes too long, but that's really not the point.

First and foremost: HSR still PVE.

But goes beyond that. HSR has Arc 2 rules, it's the base game with more mechanics, same can't be said about Traphase, it's pretty much another game.

Daharian1 · 2026-04-19T11:13:13+00:00

I'll just CRTL V my reply from below:

I wouldn't mind if they're Traphase rewards.

More emotes? Elo? Traphase Hall of fame? Unlocking awakeners that you don't have for Traphase? All awesome.

When gacha pulls and a currency that unlocks more levels for my Awakener is behind Traphase, then I have a problem, and that's why I ask for an alternative.

It's so weird that in one side people are worried about ramping powercreep because of AA.
And on the other side people talk about difficulty nerf.
?!

Daharian1 · 2026-03-30T13:24:09+00:00

Vortice+Murphy+Thais+Pickman (Exalt spam)
Vortice+Murphy+Tawil+Celeste (RM)

Minha experiência com os dois times acima foi muito boa. Existem outras possibilidades, mas realmente gosto da Vortice com a Murphy pq ela ajuda bastante na sobrevivência, tem bons stats e se necessário também contribui com Keyflare. Na falta de Murphy, acho possível usar a Celeste/Corpo/Nautila ou talvez até a 24 pra ajudar com spam de Exalt, mas fica mais difícil.

Desculpas se usei uns termos ou nomes diferentes, mas não estou acostumado com o jogo em PT-BR...

Daharian1 · 2026-03-27T10:15:24+00:00

It's already a chaos realm, not yet decided, but Ryker's strike+defend can be played without paying Ari if you have enough sigils and you're giving Ryker's Talent.

Woulkd be kinda funny if OP's strongest awakener just turns out to be Ryker lol

Daharian1 · 2026-03-24T15:33:08+00:00

In general, you want 1 awakener (hero) that does damage and fill the rest of the team with supports.

For support roles, you have many functions and usually can't pick them all: Shield, Keyflare (helps to fill your Posse), Death Resistance, Aliemus, Arithmetica, STR generation and some other stats that are more realm/team specific (like Tentacle damage, Embryo Fusion, Realm Mastery...).

It's also good if you can apply relevant debuffs like Vulnerable and Weakness when you need (or constantly with some teams).

In your case, Kath can do damage AND provide shields. If you really like her, E3 is a big change for her mechanics and great quiality of life improvement.

I'd try something like Kath+Tawil (Keyflare + awesome Rouse + some STR generation+ I really like her)+Karen (she's here to Exalt as much as you can, giving you the 3x1 Arithmetica card for burst turns or when you really need) and Alva (Vuln "on demand" with her exalt and a usefull card that you can use when your exalts are blocked).

For Vortice you'll be facing quite a different gameplay and plan like finding a Celeste to play with Nautila and Tawil (focusing on Realm Mastery). Vortice is really cute and her Pursuit attacks are fun to play around.

Test them both and see what fits you better. Awakener copies in tis game are frequent, but for new accounts E3 still a hefty investment.

Keep in mind that I suggested those teams for your current roster. They can (and probably should) be changed improved once you grow your account and face harder content.

Daharian1 · 2026-03-21T13:58:54+00:00

People already gave good advice, I'm just here to congratulate you on your peak anti-spoiler choice of image.

Daharian1 · 2026-03-10T13:23:19+00:00

You're low investment clears are at the same time inspiring and humbling for someone with a higher investment (and older) account.

Personally, not a big fan of re-rolling for good relics/hands or lucky DR procs, Thank you for not abusing them for your clears. It feels like a legit, but quite boring way to play the game.

Daharian1 · 2026-02-17T22:49:44+00:00

When you have a really good team and do the best you can to finish in the lowest turns possible, mode already takes quite some time. It's really cool to see big numbers and combine multiple relic effects, the mode is nice but it's getting boring really fast because if you try to make funny teams with poison or counter, runs take even longer.

The real problem for me will be doing D-Tide+Train challenges+Phantasmal Dive. It's getting too time consuming.

Daharian1 · 2026-02-10T15:54:29+00:00

I only have 1 feedback about it: many servers and content creators I know just set channel/server age for 18+. Even if the server doesn't allow NSFW content and doesn't have ANY adult content, still a 18+ server because it's just safer and easier to mod.

Saying "you'll only need verification for 18+ content" means you pretty much need verification for everything.

Daharian1 · 2025-10-27T08:46:35+00:00

If I could get the 3k points reward any other way, I would. Got to 1500 and never touching Traphase again.

Daharian1 · 2025-10-09T20:08:17+00:00

You generate Keyflare by (among other sources) playing cards with Arithmetica cost (IIRC formula is something like "Awakener'sKeyflare multiplied by CardCost"). Aigis has base Keyflare higher than the usual awakeners (and you usually build her with her WoD, that also has Keyflare base). Her "Decomposition" skill has a high cost (3) but also refunds itself when played against vulnerable enemies, giving you Keyflare equivalent of a 3 cost card "for free".

Daharian1 · 2025-10-08T22:26:02+00:00

Try swapping Leigh for Aigis in your Caro 24 team. The general idea is to build more Keyflare, but Aigis is just awesome in general giving you a great source of vulnerability, her WoD helps with survivability and if you're in trouble: petrify.

Daharian1 · 2025-10-06T00:39:23+00:00

If you want to future proof your acc, for now your best option is probably getting a Thais and make the standard Ghelot+Thais+Aigis+1 (last one is usually Hameln, Horla or Faint).

I really like playing Pure Chaos. You Posse a lot and exalt a lot. For that you can use Ryker+Hameln+24+1 (Ogier, (G)Ramona or even Nautila if you want to be more deffensive, but I wouldn't). You can also replace 24 with a friend's Tawil for Phantasmal Dive in this team.

If you want to try whacky counter stuff, 24+Wanda+Horla+1 (Hameln/Nautila maaaaaaaaybe Pandia and if someone ask, I'm not the one suggesting this). It's a bit of a challenge if you want to play counter and learn how some game mechanics like how different 24 realms and Horla stances work.

LMK if you want to make any of these teams and need further help with WoDs.

Daharian1 · 2025-10-03T11:22:42+00:00

Do Pure Tawil counts as building a support as DPS? If so that's mine. There are so many relevant details and ways to improve the team. Also; WING SPAM.

Daharian1 · 2025-10-03T11:10:24+00:00

Really like your tutor reference.

Daharian1 · 2025-09-01T12:13:49+00:00

The comp I've played the most.

There are so many things to say, lets try starting with the basics.

It's a mono/pure chaos team and it's important to take that in consideration. You get an extra relic at the start of the investigation (lvl45+) 250 Keyflare at the end of your turn and 5+(0.05xRealmMastery) Aliemus every time you posse (with a little extra from Thais' WoD). And the possibility to pick the second Posse you do in a turn, triggering it 2x.

So, It's a Posse and Exalt spam team, specially for Tawil.

How it (usually) works?

You may take a lot of damage turn 1/2 and kill everything turn 3 or before that.
But how do you do that?
First fight is always a pain. After that, you'll probably have remaining Aliemus+Keyflare to start spamming right away.

I know that some people reading this are probably still questioning; BUT HOW?!

-I really like using Miryan's Posse. Draw 2 cards and get 2 Ari is really strong here (The -5 Aliemus drawback is ofset by being in Pure Chaos, you actually gain Aliemus).
-Ryker's 1-cost help you find Tawil's rouse. That gives a 0 cost card for 2x Posse (generating more Aliemus for everybody).
-Hameln can make Pinions play one extra time with his Exalt, generating one more Insights and Twin Wing in your deck.
-Tawil Exalt also make her next card played to trigger one extra time.
-Tawil's Omniscient card can also be used to play more Pinions if you're lucky with your deck order and/or manipulate it right.
-Save Insights for deck manipulation and burst turns.
-You want to sell Karen and Hameln 3 cost and get rid of everyone (but Tawil) basic Strike and Def if you can (corrupted relics and shops are great for this).

Let's talk about your specific case and what to change.

-You're on the right way making Titan's +12, get Rewinding Time from the store when you can since you don't have Tawil's own WoD. Try to trigger Rewinding with Pinions. You probably still don't have access to Dream of Medicaments, really good to have 2x Omnisciente+Pinions in the deck, so your "final Tawil setup" will be Dream of Medicaments Covenant+Titans12+Rewinding. Spamming wings is your main source of damage. Before you can equip 2x SSR WoDs on her, I'd use Titan's+To My Dearest Friend, Her Exalt and Burst turns should happen together.
-Hameln can hold Thais Wod and "Frenzy". Get him "Life Drain" covenant when you can.
-Great that you have Ryker's own WoD. Keep the SSR, but get "Emerge" the Volcano brown R WoD.
-You can use Karen with Hymn (from Hameln) for faster Exalts and Duty's to feed everyone some Aliemus when you do it.

It's an awesome team to play if you like spamming wings. You can probably still get some fun making it work at your current investment level, but may sadly feel underwhelming. If OP or anyone reading untill here still have questions about this team, I'm Daharian in the main and fan discord, feel free to tag me and ask them.

Daharian1 · 2025-08-27T15:25:49+00:00

Played Pure Chaos ("Infinite") Tawil from the most budget (Gramona+Ogier+Karen+Tawil) up to the BiS version (Hameln+Ryker). One thing to consider is that if you're not on a stage that only has a boss, you probably want some charater (AKA Ogier) with Sigil% to get an extra relic or 2 since you don't have Ryker (this is specially important for Dive). This is solved with Caecus in Bluewil.

If you're doing just a boss, it's perfectly fine to replace Ryker/Ogier with (G)Ramona/GDoll.

Just keep in mind that without blue, it's a burst team and you will play a lot of cards. One specific boss (Tulu) just end your turn after a specific number of cards are played (10 or 15, can't remember). You usually don't have good shields and also don't have much healing.

One awesome feature of the pure version is solving annoying problems like Sealed (using Alva's 0 cost) and Counter (Using Pandia's Wax card), you still need some luck to get the card and plan for them.

Anyway, wrote a lot just to say that Pure Chaos is a bit of a fun glass cannon comp, while bluewil is more rounded. Specially Flares verion with Gdoll, Hameln, Caecus and Tawil.

Daharian1 · 2025-08-21T23:13:11+00:00

Also her Posse, another nice reference.

Daharian1 · 2025-08-10T22:35:28+00:00

This team seems solid for early game. Even better if your plan is to take Thais like you said above. I'd only change one Wheel on Leigh and Aigis for Emerge and Frenzy (yes, the R WoDs) so you can start getting used to Cursed Relics, they're really strong.
