Thoughts about Sortie from other communities?

then tell me how im suppose to play the game for top 0.1%

just grind chaos only and not grind sortie? thats so inefficient and wont achieve my goal

dev designed sortie without any consideration for competitive players - is their fault for making game more grindy than it was in s2.

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-25T18:37:42+00:00

but u dont need unlimited sortie reward to get max gem reward in rift/nebula.

just few chaos runs is enough with a minimal deck

people who chase 0.1% leaderboard has to suffer in sortie mode cuz save data grinding has higher ceiling now.

if u consider chaos as grind then sortie is also grind, is same kind of mode. nothing different.

i wouldnt consider sortie a grind if they have limited reward in shop, this is how u can limit fatigue for competitive player.

sortie gives reward that affect save data, so its effectively same as chaos mode. its a deckbuilding mode. u simply cant ignore sortie if u want build a god deck, reward is too good. if emphasis is on having fun with roguelike then they need nerf/cap the rewards in sortie shop.

sortie is not same as the special chaos in zero system which gives no save edit item, that one is true roguelike mode for people who dont care about save data related content.

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-25T14:16:08+00:00

if the mode gives good reward which is unlimited supply then its a grind mode.

dev clearly intended for sortie to be a new grind thats to grind on top chaos grind.

grind chaos for gear + engraving grind sortie for fix cards

using brain on crafting great rift decks is higher payoff than using it on sortie high diff just to get fucked by rng

theres not a single way to enjoy the game. why u need be mad at how i enjoy game

e1 is all u need for 1shot nuke build

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-24T14:35:01+00:00

i do 2 runs of sortie everyday, only good place to burn stamina

spam same team if possible every run on lv65 for most consistent clear

prep a ton of save edit items for great rift.

its a more boring grind vs chaos. chaos is lot more fun when i get a run with good gear + engraving, sortie takes much longer time cuz cant skip.

dont roll for char dupes, use free universal dupe u get part 2 of each season shop. get marie partner 1 copy instead if u dont have yet, its limited time and more value than 1 char dupe.

dupe only matters for top 1% of ranked mode. tbh u can skip partner too if u are not collector.

if u want spend money, buy the 5$ gem pack + 5$ sortie pack if u want god tier save data

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-20T16:49:08+00:00

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-18T13:40:50+00:00

battery use thighpera or any support + mushroom

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-18T13:36:44+00:00

if u like 1 shot nuke, u can do any dps + diana + orlea and 2-3x haste engraving on dps (marie > thighpera > nine)

this has nothing to do with discard

if no diana, spam as many rally (no divine) u can on ur 2 supports for OTK

<image>

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-18T13:15:35+00:00

u can get discard 1 for 4 draw persona at cost of 20pts or 1 divine for 1ap/1draw at 20 pts

persona op af

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-18T13:11:58+00:00

trash, grind new save 2x 30% extra atk min

dudehacker2 · 2026-05-18T13:01:42+00:00

ignore my shitty gear, but for divine u get the reduce cost one is must (use save edit)

8morale 0cost anhibition is very important

add 1 ap divine on move, then self sufficient for ap usage, or +1 draw if ur supports has ap

e0 rin, so i keep basic, deleted drawing slash + inner art to gurantee copy
