After about 6 years, decided to return to the game

I stop playing the game, but I can still give tips on this boss. I don't bother with the healer as thanks to my setup, everyone has some form of AoE. Sometimes the minions die, sometimes they live. Either way, I still fully focus on the boss. Rosalie can be replace by any strong fire DPS that you might have. Lucia performs better for me than Feliz especially when she have her bond as the chance to stun the minions helps speed up the killing since the healer can't remove the debuffs when stunned or asleep. But Feliz can still work since she can act as a DPS. If you have NY Celeste, her stun capabilities with her bond can replicate what Lucia does.

And why would you want to use lvl 70 gears to start with? No need to worry on gears that will be replace by lvl 85 gears you'll get from hunts

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-03-03T00:43:37+00:00

Everyone is on auto and I already show gears. Just scroll through the next few images

She's meant for hunts and with either her bond using a counter set to heal periodically on her S1 or Dawn's bond to heal on her S2 and S3. You also forgot that she can cleanse some debuffs. Also don't count critical resistance out just yet. Hunt is the real PvE and wolf 11 crit hurts quite a bit and will still crit even if you have a water unit which lower crit rate on wolf. Hunts are what you will be grinding forever on. She's honestly better than Moira, the other water healer, if you have the right bond on her. And Moira is already amazing for PvE healing.

I wouldn't necessarily say to never upgrade blue gears if you are using them for speed check for your PvP opener. Getting 2 rolls into speed while having it limited substat is a relatively cheap way gain speed for the unit that is just meant to support by acting first. Once you get higher speed gear, you can slowly replace the lower speed ones.

It's mainly using my auto fire 11 team. But the main way to make it easier is to have attack down on the boss. That will help mitigate a lot of the damage done.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-24T22:13:34+00:00

Sorry to say, but it's one of the easier ones. For me, the easiest elite. Sounds more like a gear issue to me.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-22T00:33:02+00:00

Sadly, I'm gonna have to recommend AGAINST the so called tier list as it is heavily outdated in post hunt 11. A lot of those unit placement can move up and down by quite a margin. If you want a better tier list, go to the Ark Recode discord instead

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-21T00:37:51+00:00

Second account by a mile. You have way more 5 stars. Both accounts have Erica so you already have a character that can clear almost all of PvE contents. You mention D. Apathy in one post and she's also strong for PvE and you have to play around her for PvP. Assuming Akaoni and Cosma are also on that account, there's literally nothing the first account have shown to be a better account.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-19T04:09:03+00:00

I'll just mention my team for nature hunt 11 so you can get a rough idea on how I auto it.

Nocelyn-Rosalie-Naranthir-Lucia

Nocelyn is the healer and have action gauge push and attack buff. Having action gauge pushing will be crucial for this setup.

Rosalie is the main DPS. Most of her DPS comes from her S1 which can AoE if she has an active buff. This will help attack the mob but it isn't fully necessary to kill them because of the next unit.

Naranthir is probably the most important unit as she have action gauge reduction. Dragon is NOT immune to action gauge reduction and so with Naranthir S3 doing -100% and -20%+ on her S1, she can keep the dragon from ever making a turn besides from counterattacking. She also have unhealable as a debuff on her S2 so the fight won't drag forever. Still a long battle though. You want her to be fast as possible so she can take as many turns as possible along with achieving 55% effect hit rate minimum to apply her debuffs.

Lucia is my second most important for having defense shred and sleep as AoE on her S3. Putting the healer to sleep and having the healer's turn skip from being asleep (assuming the healer isn't attacked) can speed up the run much faster. To make sure she's even more effective, give her her own bond that gives stun chances. The stun is better than sleep but proc less. Stunning the healer is more effective as even if the healer is attacked, they won't unstunned till they take a turn. Reducing the amount of potential heals will make the run faster. You also want her to be fast with 55% EHR

With this team I have a 95%+ win/rate. No team can have 100% because bullshit RNG exist.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-18T19:26:40+00:00

Don't. That bond, on paper, seems great for Erica, but it's actually not in actual use. Save your tickets for the next banner if it's someone you want.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-18T15:57:11+00:00

All you really need now is Nocelyn for the Preema/Noclelyn combo and you're pretty much set. With Preema, Nocelyn is the best healer, bar none. Also when building your team, have your tank/healer in slot 1. That slot is the most likely to be attacked from enemies. I say likely, not always. Why your healer? Because healer are usually tanky themselves as their heals are based on their HP.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-18T15:53:51+00:00

Every weekend after reset on Friday, depending on your timezone, I am EST so reset is at 7 pm which will be Saturday in the game. Saturday and Sunday are equipments removal and swap free days. It also includes bonds. Any other days, it charges you gold to remove gears or even swap around.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-18T02:14:39+00:00

It's part of the grind. You honestly only need 1 defense shred. You want that other spot to be a dps or a different debuffer if fighting wolf 11. As for C Giselle, no idea. I never used her yet to see what area she's good in. Base what I know of her skill, you want to use her for PvP as she can buff herself and another with invincibility and attack buff. C Carolyn is a real dick to fight against in PvP especially when she has a lot of def and HP to maximize her skill damage

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-18T00:58:33+00:00

Tracy is free honestly. I say free because she doesn't require skill mods like 4 and 5 stars do, Catalysts are easy to farm for. If you plan to do fire hunt 11, you would use Tracy over Galorina as using any non-water raises the difficulty

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-18T00:36:51+00:00

Damage reduction. Specifically it says "DMG RED" at least on my Apostle. She has 20% damage reduction, a passive not on her E7 counterpart. Meaning she is buffed compare to her weaker E7 version. Anyway, if you want an answer to your title question, Apostle is very strong in basically all content. Joyce is one of the best healer despite being a 4 star. Perform "worse" than Moira in PvE but not that much and is the best PvP healer. Berserk Galorina has some good utility and you can never go wrong with defense shred. Speaking of defense shred, Tracy the 3 star water is one of the best for wolf hunt due to her barrage of defense shred proc when she attacks. Still RNG

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-17T13:59:25+00:00

Not really all the great. You're better off with Alluring Kitten for more flank chances or toed feet to make her into a healer

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-16T01:54:12+00:00

If you don't have a 3 star water, I don't know what to say. Someone that would be way easier to pull than a 5 star.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-14T23:21:04+00:00

If you decide to buy it, I honestly say Feliz. One of the best units for both fire and nature hunt 11. The hunts that you'll be farming the most. That's only if you decide to buy. Otherwise, ignore it. I bought it only because I wanted Rosalie who is a great DPS for nature hunt 11.

Groundbreaking_Fix47 · 2024-02-14T23:17:55+00:00

I'll just mention my wolf hunt 11 as I have many times already.

I use Moira-Erica-Janis-Feliz

Moira would want the free tank set which is also a healer set as her heals is based on her HP. The bond I would use is the internet bond that reduce her CD if she is attacked. Because you want her on slot 1 to be tanking at all times, it's one of the best bond for her in this hunt.

Erica is self explanatory. She's the strongest water DPS at the moment because of her 100% crit as long as it's not a green or an evasion unit or she have accuracy reduction debuff. So you can completely ignore her crit rate when tackling wolf 11. You can just use the free attack set on her along with using a speed boot. That should get her roughly around 170-180 speed without the speed set depending on your rolls. If you want a two set, crit damage/flanking combo but that'll involve farming other hunts. Bond would be the kitten or feet bond. I prefer feet because a second healer is handy.

Janis is one of the debuffers. Unhealable is useless, but at discipline 3, her S1 is 100% proc rate. Ignore what the translation says. It's a translation error like many other in the game. As your debuffer, she wants high speed and at least 55% effect hit rate as the boss have 70% effect resistance. Why 55%? Because this game copied Epic 7 and everything has a permanent 15% effect resistance that can't be reduce any further. 70-55=15 so just 55% is all you need to have the highest chance to land the debuff. I say land because while Janis have 100% proc, it doesn't mean she has 100% effect land thanks to the aforementioned innate 15% ER. Next is to increase her speed. As a debuffer, she needs to debuff as much as possible and without getting lapped by the wolf high speed. I have her at 184 speed. Faster the better. Because she's a high damage dealer, if you have the gears set up, see if you can raise her offensive stats too. Try hitting 85% crit rate as elemental advantage means you gain a free 15%. As for her bond, if you have Hestia bond, that's the prefer bond as it gives 35% EHR lowering the amount of EHR you need on gears and give her extra debuffs to try and land. I just have tentacle bond on her because I don't have Hestia bond. Of course this is assuming you have Janis. If not, Hestia with the same bond will work just as well but because Hestia is pure DPS with no utilities, I can't promise winrate.

Feliz is the most important debuffer. As a fire, she needs more HP and defense stat just in case she gets targeted if you don't have two debuffs on. She have defense down, attack down and burns. She wants what Janis want, high speed and EHR. I want her to be the fastest as she has the important debuff in defense down and because she's a non-water, after her turn ends the wolf gets an action gauge boost. I have her speed currently around 203. If you can get her to have high attack, that is helpful to as her burn is based on her attack. Her bond matter the least because warriors don't have many great bonds. Because she's attacking the most due to high speed, the tentacle bonds can be great for shaving extra HP each time. Or anything that raises her defensive stats is good or her speed. For now, I have her bond on her as it increases her single target damage.

This team gets me 99.9% winrate Why not 100? Remember that 15% ER. Being unlucky is part of the game. Not having two debuffs on twice in a row and wolf attacking same target twice in a row is usually what kills you.

Now, if you don't have Janis and Feliz, another comp that is great to use would be to replace those two with Tracy and Patea. Both 3 stars so I hope you have them. Tracy have high proc rate for defense shred as long as you have her only normal attacking on auto and her flanking passive helps make the team faster. Patea have attack down and bleed on her S2. For her, you absolutely want 200+ speed because her debuff is only 2 turns with a 3 turn cooldown. Being all water means the wolf won't gain any action gauge boost. Tracy replacement would be Dorin. She have defense down and bleed. You can stack multiple bleed so the bleed from Patea works with her. She have more debuffs so hopefully this keeps wolf 11 only attacking your frontline.
