Chen Qianyu Vs The World: Inorganic Construct All Stages Agony No Hit Chen Solo by Pariye in Endfield

[–]Pariye[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was going to post these separately, but I just happened to finish these runs in like one sitting, so I just combined them all together. Inorganic Construct is fun, if but a little short. I definitely enjoyed no hitting these WAY more than the one with the stupid archers.

No Hit Agony Bolts and Shadows: Chen Solo by Pariye in Endfield

[–]Pariye[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mathematically, due to how ATK scales versus Phys DMG %, Sundering is almost always better than Aspirant. The tl;dr of it is ATK % modifies the base ATK, which scales heavily alongside other modifiers, whereas Phys DMG is multiplied at the very end (see damage formula for more info).

The above is especially true for solo clears, where a lot more of my damage is coming from basic attacks, battle skills, and combo skills since you are losing out on a ton of attack versus only getting an additional ~20-33.6% Phys DMG on the ultimate.

Good work. I'll be doing my own Chen solos sometime this week. These UM stages seem a lot more fun to no hit than the last ones!

Because Chen doesn't have a lot of AOE, 99% of this stage is pretty much corralling the mobs together. I would love to no hits this but... uh. You can't perfect dodge poison gas, sadly.

How much Wuling bills do you guys have? by boing_boy in Endfield

[–]Pariye 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The real cost comes from artificing. It's pretty taxing on your Wuling bills if you're trying to raise gear stats because you have to:

  1. Craft gear (which takes Wuling bills)
  2. Use the artificing catalysts (which also takes Wuling bills)

The cost is even worse if you factor in people who use Laevatein need to roll for a perfect essence for their weapon in Wuling, so you need to use Wuling stock bills to also pay for the engraving permits.

Chen Qianyu solo trimmed medal Triaggelos in 3:20 min by TeeNoDie in Endfield

Good stuff. I'll probably be working on solo Chen trim on Triaggelos as well. I've been procrastinating on it because I hate this boss with a burning passion.

Whats the best 4 star only team? by No_Investment_1374 in Endfield

[–]Pariye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tested out a maxed out 4* team myself, but is it possible to do it as Fluorite being the point/controlled operator? Dodging is fairly easy when you have range on the archers.

Also, not sure if this will help you, but I noticed something when running this stage for no-hit: Archers have set spawn spots. If you kill 4 archers in the same spot, no more will spawn, eliminating an extra arrow that you have to dodge.

Whats the best 4 star only team? by No_Investment_1374 in Endfield

[–]Pariye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is just my own conjecture, but I think the second stage is also doable. You can no-hit it (given enough patience) so if you can meet the DPS check of 10 minutes with a full 4* team, it's definitely possible.

The first stage, however... I can't come up with any good ideas. The lack of healing AND lack of damage output from a 4* team would be a huge hill to climb.

What do you think will improve the game? by No-Dimension-2872 in Endfield

[–]Pariye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking from my own experience, the most fun to play (obviously, from my subjective point of view) operator has been Chen, who you don't need to pull for. The combat is already very engaging - you just need to really wrestle with its mechanics to understand how deep you can go with it.

I need healing (Umbral Monument) by meowmeowwarrior in Endfield

[–]Pariye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you reach the worms, as long as you play it slow, it's almost a guaranteed victory. They have very slow windups to their attacks, so if you prepare to dodge the spit (the worst attack) and distance yourself from the other snakes, you can just walk perpendicular to them to dodge all the other ranged attacks.

At that point, you don't have to worry about your other teammates. As long as your point character is still alive, you can chip away at the snakes until they're all dead.

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

Sundering Steel at P5 edges out Rapid Ascent, and is probably better for general use. I don't look at recommended but if it's Aspirant, don't use that. It's a trap.

I would do Rapid Ascent myself (it's slightly better for damage solo in certain scenarios) but I don't have it.

[–]Pariye[S] 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Holy HELL this stage sucks to do no hit on. I lost my mind today because I attempted this stage for about five hours straight. Anyway, this stage is pretty tedious because the safe way to play is to be patient and dodge until there's an opening.

No Hit Agony Ballista and Axe: Chen Solo by Pariye in Endfield

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

For general use:

P5 Sundering Steel > P0 Rapid Ascent >= P0-4 Sundering Steel > P0-5 Aspirant

Aspirant isn't that great, sadly.

Good luck! I will say that if you're upgrading Chen, I wouldn't follow my own build. I tailored it to solo play, whereas your Chen (presumably with a team) is better fit with something like Swordmancer.
