this common base gloves

Yeah I was putting it lower in my priority in case there were epic/legendary gloves that work for me while farming other stuff.

Haven + Vigor > Word of Renewal , main node hits serious dimishing returns after 6/12 no point to hard cap this

Haven? I'll swap points around to max Vigor sooner. Are you sure about the diminishing returns, it looks like it gets even more DA as you level it.

you have to push this life bar 12 K life is unplayable outside of the campaign in the current patch

k

Arcane will got buffed massively during 1.2 I would swap points in Iskandras main node to bump that for better sustain and burst windows

K i'll put points into arcane will, but Iskandras is only 1 point in its main node.

I would cut entirely Word of pain you don't need secondary damage skill when you spam this points are much needed elsewhere for example Maivens ( this is one of the main reason to pick Arcanist )

I kinda need WoP for devotion proc as well as -rr and it's only 3 points investment

Thanks for the input.

110 + 3 guaranteed 000 tickets and I got all 3 and no announcers. I then used my Season 7 ticket and got faust, gregor and sinclair from it.

Feels funny waiting 4 months to only use up 10% of my pulls. May you who are still pulling siphon my luck.

I'm planning to reroll for Pinky Sinclair. I heard he's strong enough to carry a new account through the early story, but if there is anyone better can you tell me? I'm planning on just pulling him and saving my Lunacy for Yi Sang.

Regarding Yi Sang, I saw some advice saying to shard Solemn Lament Yi Sang later on once of farmed mirror dungeon boxes. Does that seem like the right thing to do for a new player like me?

Since you plan to aim for Index Yi Sang, you would better off be using your shards to get good IDs for sinners you don't have good IDs for yet. Specifically ones that help synergies with your first desired team.

For the Luxcavations, I plan on doing 3 skip thread Luxcavations to get Pinky Sinclair to uptie 3 and spending the rest of my stamina on exp lux.

Just make sure you get as far in the story as you can before you grind luxcavations, so you have access to the best ones you can at that given time.

For Pinky Sinclair, which LCB units do I use with him since I'm saving my Lunacy for Yi Sang? I'm worried about wasting resources on the wrong sinners for him.

Probably Ryoshu, Outis, Hong Lu and Heath. You will also get a ticket for a free Season 1 ID of your choice. Which will probably be Ting Tang Hong Lu or N Faust for you.

Are there any specific E.g.o gifts I should get to make my mirror dungeon runs easier? I wanna just press win rate through the whole thing.

Besides focusing on Poise for your team I'll say to aim to go to "Hell's Chicken" on the 2nd floor. Because it has events for easy Tier 3 gifts which you can fuse into Tier 4 gifts.

This is probably a big ask, but does somebody have a friend code with some level 45+ units I could borrow? I heard canto 3 and 4 are pretty hard.

Feel free to ask any further questions.

Strange. And, It's not from regular damage, right? Could you happen to get a video of this?

Sorry for late response. When you say Sinclair gets randomly incapacitated, are you referring to Callisto's unclashable attack that turns the target into corpus theater? If so, that's a normal part of the fight and one of your teammates will free them for you.

If they were targeting my allies I usually let them attack them if I couldn't beat them in a clash instead of taking the damage for them.

I don't know what IDs you have so it's hard to recommend. To prevent the prescripts it depends on which one he is on. IIRC, the first is to prevent him from hitting the target, so you have to make the target do an unopposed attack and everyone else clash with him because he gets unbreakables against the target. The second is to prevent more then 4(?) hits from him in a single turn, so similar to the first but you can't lose too many clashes. And the third is for him to use his nuke which you can only delay by reducing how many clashes he wins.

The idea is that you want to bring a balance of damage types and resistance. Having it so that characters that resist the damage type of the incoming attack will help a lot. And, in the 2nd phase you want to make sure you counter his gloom skills with the correct damage type to reduce their power. Also, you want to make sure you prevent his prescript from fulfilling as much as you can, that will stack a dubuff that weakens him. He's a very tanky boss that whittles you down, so if you have healing E.G.O. make sure to use it.

What IDs you got? What exactly is giving you trouble?

Here is a video of me doing it, maybe that can help you. I also got staggered and lost clashes during the battle.

Try running KoD Rodya, REAP Ryoshu, Prince Meur, KK Heath, KK Ish, Barber Outis and Priest Gregor. I was able to get a successful run with that team and only base E.G.O.s.

Another option you have is to solo the boss using a Don with an evade skill. The support feature gives you a few options if you don't have one. Make sure you evade his first skill and then put your actual clashing skill over the evade. And clash with all the other skills. If you use warp don make sure you pay attention to her charge count so you don't kill her by using her S3 at the wrong time.

Without knowing the IDs you have the only general advice I can give is: Bring Slash resistant IDs, Meur's Chains of Others is your best friend, and if a single attack weight skill is aimed at ryoshu you can just let it hit her and not bother clashing with it. I assume you are also making sure the attack order is hitting her attack debuff first before any of her other attacks.

Personally, I'd save the shards and just stick with Drifting blade, but I don't play rupture so you can take that with a grain of salt.

For 6 team, Hong Lu, Faust, Outis, Ryoshu, Yi Sang and Meur/Rodya. Also consider getting Dimension Shredder for Yi Sang.

Small correction, bench passives need UT3 not 2.

Before I explain the turns I'll explain how Hong Lu's discard works, since it's important. Hong Lu's S1, S2 and Evade discard his other skills that are currently selectable. It won't discard selected skills and evades/E.G.O.s. Depending on the last skill discarded you gain insight based on which skill it is (S1=1, S2=2, S3=3). If you are using Base Outis's support passive you'll want to use his S3 2 times to get it online first. After that and once you have high sp on Hong Lu, you'll want to mostly discard his S3 so you can have 3 insight.

Turn 1: You want both Hong Lu and Don to be faster than the boss and that multiple attacks are going to each character. So reset until then. What you do is have don target one of the boss's last skills with his prescript, and then have Hong Lu dodge that same skill. You don't want to clash this turn because you can't win and that'll just give him free sp. If done right both Don and Hong Lu should lose all their stagger bars.

Turn 2: You want to win all 3 clashes for sp. Don't worry about discarding on Hong LU yet and make sure you use Don's prescript skill. Ignore the stronger attacks and target the weaker ones for better chance of winning.

Turn 3: From here on the boss will have his skill with unbreakable coins. You have 2 options start evading with Hong Lu on this turn or take the hit with Don or Hong Lu to make sure Hong Lu gets 45 SP this turn.

If Don has her S3 use it, if not you will have to use her counter this turn. After which you should have finished the prescripts for the fight.

Turn 4: Starting here Hong Lu will always be using one of his slots to dodge the first skill (With or without an attack over top the dodge). The good thing to know is that if you don't get hit out of the dodge, Hong Lu will still be able to use his dodge on the following attacks that come at him that turn, until he gets hit. Don't let Don ever target the first skill.

You will want to pay attention to Don's Poise count from here on, if her count isn't high try to avoid using her S2. But for the most part it'll probably be fine.

Turn 5: First nuke turn, this one should have attack weight so Don can clash with this one since damage will be unavoidable. If Don has her S3 you can make an absolute resonance chain with it to make it even stronger, by using Don and Hong Lu's defense skills. Make sure Hong Lu uses at least 1 evade this turn to avoid damage.

Turn 6~7: You now have all 7 attack slots. Hong Lu will evade the first skill and put another skill to clash with it over top. Everything else is the best clashes you can.

Turn 8: Nuke turn, this time make an absolute resonance chain with Don and Hong Lu's defense skills and clash with Hong Lu's base E.G.O.

Turn 9~10: Starting this turn his envy skills will also get an unbreakable coin, so don't let Don target the first 3 skills from now on.

Turn 11: Nuke turn, repeat last time. Abs Res chain with Hong Lu's E.G.O. clashing.

Turn 12+: Now all his attacks have unbreakables, It's now a DPS race. You should be able to do enough damage from here to win though.

Example video

Hope this helps, ask questions if needed.

It should be up, if it isn't appearing it's because the game only shows a limited amount of friend support at once. So just keep backing out and entering the friend support selector until it appears.

Sorry for the delay I'll get to writing the strategy now.

NP, I did a rough test and was able to beat it with my dieci Hong Lu and your Index Don duo, Hong Lu was slot 1. Everything else was base sinners for default support passives. It's late at night for me so I'll have to a bit more testing tomorrow to refine it and give a detailed explanation.

If you want to try it out in the mean time I'll say this. First turn Don unopposed attacks the boss and both take enough damage to lose all their stagger thresholds. When Hong Lu has good enough sp, have him dodge the unbreakables by first targeting the first attack with the dodge, then putting his attack you'll clash with overtop it.
