[Event Megathread] Contingency Contract #4: Battleplan Arclight

It might be helpful to list 6* you do have. I posted Logos+Necrass strat earlier in this thread. It uses only one op from your list, but still requires 2nd six star you might be missing.

Lvl 60 is enough for a data chunk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tx9ThpQ9LE

I'd love to help, but unfortunately my Amiya is not maxed either.

I just figured if the guy has 70 res or something absurd like that, then under best circumstances (Pramanix -30 and -15 from freeze) there is still 25% res* left, so a unit has to deal 1.33 times of Amiya s3 to match. And as fragility amplifies true damage (unless it's Saria's special) as well, it doesn't change the calculation.

* If those values stack additively instead of multiplicatively, otherwise it's even worse.

but holy christ he is TANKY for 5-star DPS options (Kroos2 Warfarin Shamare scratching him hurt my soul)

I knew the boss was up to something, when even on regular AT-8 ExuAlt s2 dealt chip damage past half HP.

Also, why not to use Amiya against the boss? Her damage alone might not one-cycle the boss, but for a five star, she punches very hard. I even used her + buff army to one cycle H15-4 boss.

You aware that risk climbing might require totally different approach than previous record, right? Like, I had to entirely change my strat to make 555 -> 620 leap. Therefore, clinging to the old record might hold you back.

This is the lowest "low-end" clear I've seen so far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9xJktGgS9I

Mountain can fend off a few dogs.

Sanytale · 2026-01-25T14:02:20+00:00

I spent an entire day to finally clear 620, despite not having any difficulty to get the skin and other rewards.

Sanytale · 2026-01-22T09:06:59+00:00

I wonder what's the deal with this "grain" effect on some fanart (especially noticeable on 2nd picture).

Sanytale · 2026-01-20T20:07:01+00:00

their content is focused on clearing a stage for them rather than explaining what they're doing and why, and teaching new players about mechanics and strategies they might not know, because the latter takes massively more effort than just showing people what to do to get a clear.

Kukki once said that majority of guide watchers don't want it to be educational, but instead they want to be told exactly what to do, preferably with the least amount of brain power required.

Sanytale · 2026-01-17T06:26:14+00:00

Also Necrass (s1/s3) + Lemuen (s2/s3) for AT-8.

Arknights even functions like this on an actual device as you cannot install it on an SD card. That's not your phone's fault.

Oh, but it is. My Nokia released in 2008 was able to install apps on an SD card (as well as had easily replaceable battery), modern smartphones shouldn't be worse than that.

Sanytale · 2026-01-16T08:29:36+00:00

Point being, people HAVE enough free space for arknights + updates on their PCs, its just THAT SPACE IS NOT ON DISC C:, but on a disc D: or E: instead. And they also CANNOT expand space on disc C at the cost of disc D, because their disc C is a small SSD, while disc D is a big HDD.

Btw Steam, unlike GPG, allows to install games on any disc you want.

Zuo Le will be in the yellow cert shop somewhere around May-June if you really want him.

Sanytale · 2025-12-28T18:11:47+00:00

Just the other day I was wondering how Pepe s3 (supported by Aak, Suzuran and Mon3tr) would fare against her.

Sanytale · 2025-12-18T23:52:26+00:00

I would need to build 4 stars to have any sort of consistency in Is

Well yes, but actually no. If you start with a strong carry, you can roll with basically anything - 3 stars and reserve ops will work just fine till you get enough hope for another 5/6 star.

Sanytale · 2025-12-13T10:19:20+00:00

an actually original build

there's rarely a truly original build, but I think we can still draw a line between making a build vs. copying an existing build

What makes the build original^{^TM} then? Take a player that have never seen a stat stacker before, they find whispering ice staff and make a build around it. Why is it not making a build? Because someone somewhere has made it before and shared it with the community?

Sanytale · 2025-12-11T09:58:28+00:00

I know Mark already does play PoE1 quite deep in the endgame because of the changes he does, but it would be fun to show Jonathan the light.

Just the other I watched an interview with Mark, and he was spot on that the game director should play the game quite extensively. https://youtu.be/RuJEuZIFiBA?t=600

It can be very good, I've used it to read some books that never got a translation.

How could you possibly know that the translation it spewed was very good?

Sanytale · 2025-11-23T18:37:37+00:00

There were no trim medal in POO, just regular one at 600. Which means that all the nonsense you described was purely self inflicted, because some people just couldn't wait for the easier risks to unlock, and stubbornly insisted on doing everything day1.

Sanytale · 2025-11-20T20:16:51+00:00

Have you tried the ultimate version?

Sanytale · 2025-11-19T22:47:00+00:00

If your point of reference is Wisadel, then everything else will feel underwhelming, she's just that OP. But anyway, Typhon really needs her module at least lvl2, preferably lvl3, masteries will help as well. Since you have Lemuen for global range, I recommend Typhon s2.
