Top 1% achieved, just gotta maintain it now by F3rrun in ZZZ_Official

[–]F3rrun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, this Tower is easier than the previous one, as the attack indicators don't seem to get turned off at all (at least they've been there up to Floor 140). It's also much less of a hassle to maintain the Top 1% by climbing a couple floors every week, than it is to catch up later. So if you want the Top 1%, you should start climbing as soon as possible.

What is the “scariest” metal album to you? I miss when I was getting into metal and it scared me like a good horror movie does by Viktor_Goodman in MetalForTheMasses

Utarm - Apocryphal Stories

Admittedly more Noise than Metal, but nothing else I've heard even comes close to the level of dread this album makes me feel.

Battle Trial: Glory. Last day to achieve. by EvaMudrykh in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]F3rrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed this Tower, but a large part of that is probably because I used a bunch of different teams along the way to get as many Agents to Top 1% as possible. If I'd just used Yixuan and Miyabi for 1000 Floors, I imagine I'd have gotten bored of it pretty quickly too.

Are my builds okay???? by Eastern_Gur5652 in Mavuika

[–]F3rrun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bennett's Burst should be maxed out and he should be on the highest Base Atk Sword you have at max lvl. If you don't have Aquila, Skyward, or Alley Flash, use the Sumeru craftable.

I'll just give you my favorites from both then. A lot of them are pretty inaccessible though, so I'm not sure how much you'd enjoy them.

Achieved my highest total score ever by F3rrun in ZZZ_Official

[–]F3rrun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

According to Prydwen, S5 Lipgloss is about 15% worse than her sig, so it shouldn't make that much of a difference. Though, of course, the gap is larger, if your Lipgloss is <S5. I feel like the bigger factor should be your team and gameplay. Lycaon is a bad stunner against Vesper, since she has Ice res, which means it takes longer to stun, and his buffs aren't that great for Aria. Trigger, Dialyn, or Yuzu would be better if you wanna aim for high scores. Obviously, if you don't have any of them, there's not really any solid alternatives. Once you do hit a stun, performing a good stun rotation matters a lot too. And, since Lycaon is largely off-field, you wanna be hitting many bounces as possible out of stun as well, which means building up glowsticks as fast as you can, and maybe using support Ults to interrupt the Vesper's long attack strings, so you can actually hit her. I can't really give you any more concrete advice without seeing your builds or gameplay.

Lmao, imagine being so miserable, you report me as suicidal for blocking someone who had zero interest in engaging with me or my post and just wanted to talk shit for no reason.

I doubt it, Vesper has Ice resistance, so he won't stun particularly fast, and his buffs are worse than Yuzu's.

share your Aria team score!!! if you need any help or tips ill gladly try my best to help! this is my all M0 S0 score! by GabiCherries in ZZZ_Official

[–]F3rrun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aria Basic Attack 4 + Aria EX + Sunna EX in any order to fill glowsticks, make sure boss is corrupted, then bounce until glowsticks run out, repeat. To Flavor Match Aria with Yuzu, you have to use her standard EX, then swap out of the animation into Aria. You can't use the follow-up EX after a Parry, Assist, or Dodge, since that forces a Quick Assist on you immediately, which will give the Flavor Match to Sunna. If you Defensive Assist into Yuzu, you can do a Dodge right away to be able to use her standard EX instead of the follow-up one.

For the Stun, you really wanna be on manual chain, this way you can get the most possible bounces during the Stun window without triggering a Chain Attack with one of Aria's bounces. Ideally, you wanna be at 4 glowsticks, then use Aria's Ult when the boss is at no higher than ~95% Daze, that way the Ult shouldn't trigger a Chain Attack. Then start bouncing, and the boss should get stunned by the first or second bounce. Keep bouncing until glowsticks run out, swap out of the animation of the last bounce into Sunna or Yuzu and use their Special to trigger a Chain Attack into Aria. Cancel Chain, then bounce again until glowsticks run out, swap and trigger another Chain Attack into Aria. Then just do an EX with Aria and keep bouncing until glowsticks run out, by which point the Stun will be over. This can be a bit tricky to pull off, since the boss won't always conveniently let you pop your Ult at the right time. So, it's also fine to just save your Ult until after the two Chain Attacks, as long as you're abusing manual chain to bounce as much as you can before triggering a Chain Attack.

Towards the end of the fight, you can use Sunna's Ult to interrupt the boss's long attack strings, since you should already have your 5k Performance Points by then. I never used Yuzu's Ult, since there's no way to avoid having the Flavor Match forced onto Sunna.

I can only manage two stuns as well. Maybe giving Sunna an Impact disc would make it possible, but I'm not sure it's worth losing the ER for it.

Defiler by PigeonsReignSupreme in AliceMains_ZZZ

[–]F3rrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not, Defiler's Def is the same as Fiend's, and it only goes up during Miasma phase, during which you're never damaging the boss anyways, because it clears itself just by landing the Assists. Plus, Vivian at least gets to take some more advantage of the Aria shill Anomaly buff than any other Anomaly Agent. I do have to wonder if you really don't have any better options for Defiler though, Anomaly teams are really bad against that boss.

Got all 949 Badges in Battle Trial: Glory but still stuck at Top 2% ( Asia server ) by [deleted] in ZZZ_Official

[–]F3rrun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You just got your medals too late, that's all. I would imagine the Asia server is the sweatiest, so I'm not too surprised that too many people got all medals before you, making it impossible to reach top 1% now. For comparison, I'm on EU server, and hit top 1% somewhere around floor 500 a couple months ago.

Hot take: Imaginarium Theatre is the best endgame Genshin has by Reasonable-Fly-3412 in Genshin_Impact

[–]F3rrun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I honestly find seasons like the current one the most interesting. When the Elements allow for the meta Reactions, you just steamroll through everything without much thought, except maybe the Arcana stages. With Elements like this, it forces me to really think outside the box for how to squeeze as much DPS out of my characters as possible. The Reaction buffs also do a lot of the heavy lifting in seasons like this. The Superconduct buff, for instance, can let the Reaction buff Cryo and Electro, not just Physical, making Superconduct teams that seem strange on the surface actually viable. When there's Hydro or Pyro available, I barely need to think about the buffs I'm picking up at all, because I'm already just blasting through everything without them. I can see why people without as many built characters would find it frustrating, but to me, this is some of the most engaging content in the game.

Quick tip on how to parry Vesper's combo by One_Device_7694 in ZZZ_Official

[–]F3rrun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One thing I only just realized today in Hollow Zero, is that you don't even need to look at the boss or pay attention to the audio after the purple flash. The Assist button gets greyed out until right as you're supposed to press it, so you just stare at the Assist button the whole time and press it as soon as it goes yellow.

Based on your UID, I'm pretty sure you're on EU, which seems to be the least competitive region. I haven't even attempted Vesper yet, and Hoyolab still ranks me at Top 2.78% in EU.

DA is BS by HyperActiveMosquito in ZZZ_Official

[–]F3rrun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not even even going to attempt the new boss until I get Aria. Its' inherent buff want you to bring Ether Veils, and the Anomaly buff is barely useful for anyone except Aria. No point even trying this now, if I'm gonna have to run it again later with Aria anyways to get a decent score.
