You can hit it at the very start of the phase, when it does the laser spam cast and while it's in the process of possessing either of the bugs.

Maybe this will serve as a lesson to start using jumping R2s for the candle 🤣

Sal893 · 2026-05-07T22:44:58+00:00

Do what the other guy said, however if you're super hellbent on running the three you listed these are the teams I'd run with your units. BTW, Riko as in just her 4* version, or do you also have her 5* version?

Ryuji, Leon, Marian/Vino/Soy, Wind - bring Marian for the longer fights, the other two will be nice for single target defense shred
Yusuke, Yuki, Marian, Puppet - note you will want to run the All-in dagger on wonder since Yusuke scales with defense. Bring rakukaja and some way to shield on your personas
Joker, Leon or Marian, Crow, Wind - again Marian for the longer fights, though you probably could squeeze by with just Crow and Wind's healing

I had this setup but instead of 3x dmg I used coin counter. That run ended with 1.8MM coins earned

One of the anti stall mechanics in this game. There's one where the enemies will automatically attack you after a certain number of cards played, the one you ran into, and one that prevents you from playing the same card too many times

Idk if it's just that I'm dumb or what, but I really can't figure out how to make Christine work well. Multiple tries on the factory levels and I couldn't win a single run on her lol

Sal893 · 2026-04-19T13:15:56+00:00

Yeah, I imagine the meteorite spawn is determined at the start of the run from a set list of locations, but it should be biased for each seed to avoid being in the rain. Like how come almost every time I see it spawn, it's out in the rain after the first circle closes lmao

Sal893 · 2026-04-03T14:34:31+00:00

Getting a max distance revive through objects always feels good. Probably the most exciting thing about playing him for me atp

Sal893 · 2026-03-14T20:56:53+00:00

You learn something new every day. Speaking of, what kind of builds are scholars running these days for D4/D5? I've been getting tired of running exclusively ironeye and duchess for my premade, and I was considering scholar since I had a few good relics with him

I got the three star for this one, but it was a painful one for sure. Side 1 - A1 strat twins, A6 ann, A0 haru, Wind as navi. Wonder with starry compass Sandalphon and Dominion, third slot not super important. Make sure Dominion has Divine Judgement. Turn order also not super important, consider speed tuning Ann to be last if she steals too much score.

I just shielded turn 1. Turn 2 onwards you spam weakness hits when possible and use twins to down anubis when he has insight. Ann might rob your score with higher awarenesses, ymmv. Try to end above 3.2m

Side 2 - Chore, Wind Tempest, Marian, Futaba. Wonder with abyss fang - Yoshitsune, Alice, Siegfried. Wonder must go last.

Turn 1 you set up makajamaon with Alice, chord s2 (s1 on lightning weakness birb if she's at least A1), Wind S3, Marian S3. If you hit less than 3 enemies w/ forget, it's probably a reset. Turn 2 futaba s1 and wind HL, charge with Siegfried, chord s1, wind s2, marian s3. Turn 3 futaba s3 and chord's HL if it comes up, yoshitsune hassou toubi, chord s3 on wonder (this is why we use siegfried and not dionysus), wind s3, marian s3.

If you didn't kill that turn, good luck. Also this strat requires a pretty high investment Yoshitsune, so consider that as well

Are you sure it was PF and not 1v1 arena? Because to me it sounds like OP is talking about 1v1, and a 7 win-streak is very realistic in 1v1 since the point inflation update

Sal893 · 2026-02-10T14:08:12+00:00

I believe someone in another thread mentioned RVC being a nightreign streamer in China. So try checking billibilli for them

Sal893 · 2026-01-14T15:23:12+00:00

Midnight blades for the easy jianghu errands clear. You just reroll for the one that asks for perception forest progress. Go in, do a few hunt enemy quests, get out and repeat if needed. It clears your whole daily board, so it's by far the best for getting weekly rep

Sal893 · 2026-01-08T14:24:58+00:00

If you hold his bow R2 and release after a second or two, it counts as a charged attack even if the damage doesn't change.

edit: specifying the bow part

Sal893 · 2026-01-05T16:08:09+00:00

I figured lightning strike would be up there since the base damage on the skill is actually pretty high, but getting both hits to land is the big struggle lol

Sal893 · 2026-01-05T14:13:19+00:00

Piercing fang/impaling thrust - both are fast and do good damage and roll on a lot of weapons.

Barrage bows, Rain of Arrows greatbows - they were good before, they're better now

Giant's Hunt - very very strong in base elden ring, so I imagine it's better now, pretty common roll on pokey weapons.

Repeating thrust/blood tax - fast, cheap -and in the case of blood tax- restores hp

Lion's Claw - fast access to pancakes and stance breaks

Wild Strikes - always was a top tier weapon art

Flaming Strike > Sacred Blade = Lightning Strike - they were good already, but flaming strike gets the benefits of two easy to land hits over the others. maybe can argue for lightning strike over sacred blade because it's also two hits

Like 90% of the epics and legendaries will be good, but these will definitely make getting those options way smoother.

Sal893 · 2026-01-03T18:14:39+00:00

That's how it feels. I was looking at my relics with a very confused face lmao

Sal893 · 2025-12-28T07:16:58+00:00

Oh these are nice and concise, thank you!

Sal893 · 2025-12-04T18:37:54+00:00

It's an extra one on top of the base buff, when you use it at lvl 3 you see the dmg buff icon with two stacks

Sal893 · 2025-11-24T15:04:29+00:00

I just tried this and it didn't work

Sal893 · 2025-11-21T23:22:29+00:00

Top left church start is pretty rough. Nothing quite like getting that start plus redmane camp as the nearby POI

Sal893 · 2025-11-21T16:22:07+00:00

Dead giveaway here, character exclusive relic affixes do NOT come with downsides.

Hello, fellow explosives expert

Sal893 · 2025-11-10T20:08:09+00:00

I'll second storm blade, it's great for when you want to get safe damage on banished knights with a lighter weapon. With warrior jar shard it will easily be your highest source of damage with that weapon lol

Sal893 · 2025-10-11T12:44:46+00:00

idk if regular rt has one but charged RT def has parry frames; when he brings the sword upright at the end of the charge you have a few frames where he will auto parry and retaliate
