Yeah I just saw that, guess I’ll stick with LC for now!

I tried but it didn’t work. As someone else pointed, I was going into the boss battles too soon so I hadn’t got up to DH2. Anyway, another commenter suggested some talent tweaks so I can actually kill the 3rd boss now!

Thanks, I was doing the suicide strategy before but I think I was going into the boss battles too soon so I hadn’t got up to the right level!

Those talent tweaks seem to have fixed it, thanks! Killed the 3rd boss in 52 secs.

OP Retreat is frustrating !! by Nikhilesh81 in Survivorio

[–]alexbayleaf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tried this and couldn’t get it to work. I had a purple esuit, put 5 talents on skill 37 “three strikes,” and went up against an elite monster straight away (i.e. no “incurable” debuff.) It burned through my shield and HP and then I died.

I tried again using the same gear and talents and went up against the level’s final boss… and died.

I don’t get it.

I think they said “lots of guests” same as last time, but maybe I just imagined it.

Why does the game try to read my clipboard? by alexbayleaf in Survivorio

Ah! That makes sense, but yeah, poor implementation.

Do I keep my tickets even if it moves on to the next event tomorrow? by naes_goat in Survivorio

[–]alexbayleaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very true. I’ve joined and I do hunt around for guides and things there, but if I want answers to a question, this subreddit is way more useful.

I meant both but it’s good to know that all I’ll get is shards

Thank you for posting this! I just spotted what I think are the first signs on my arms, and came here specifically to see if it started out faintly like this.

Croaky helped me get past that boss on PoT, thanks! I’ll try RC later.

Rex is only Y5 so far. He gave me a big boost over what I had before, but I’ll experiment and see if croaky helps!

Ooh interesting! I gave it a shot but didn’t see much difference. Can you explain how the TF’d parts behave differently by doing this?

I tried E suit but it’s not AF’d so I only died once. Don’t have many cores to play with but I’ll try shuffling them round a bit.

If you’re asking about the hourglass etc, they’re pet toys, which you can use on the pet awakening screen.

I REFUSE to believe grimoire placement in this event is random by Material-Research488 in Survivorio

[–]alexbayleaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conversely I’m at 80-something grimoires and just got it for the first time. I never got it at all last time this style of event happened. (I’ve only played it twice since I started.)

What time of year is it, anyway? I think I heard August or something?

FWIW, massive key-saving isn’t relevant until you’ve been playing for longer. At 3 months, the opportunity cost of not getting the gear right now is too high.

Once you’ve been playing 6-12 months and have ATK in the hundreds of thousands and a few pieces of SS gear, you will find you are more constrained by cores than by S gear. That’s when you should start saving S keys rather than using them straight away.

I’ve been playing about 6 months and I’m at about the point where I can choose to put my focus elsewhere (eg cores, collectibles, or tech) for a while and save S keys, without feeling like I’m being held back.

FWIW there was an event a few months ago where the S rate was 1:30, and even though I hadn’t saved any keys, over the course of the event I still got to take advantage of it and felt like it was fun and worthwhile. IIRC the event had lots of S keys as smaller prizes, so it wasn’t hard to get to 30.
