I started playing LoR again and I'm stuck on the first Gebura abnormality battle. I'm using Emma, Rose, and Oscar with page draw passives and prescript/puppet cards but I'm having trouble keeping Red alive and/or I'm at the mercy of the RNG and one of my team gets killed in the first 2 turns. Is there an appeal to Yujin besides BoD? I've seen it proc twice I think and the page has such low health it tends to die first.

I somehow managed to unga bunga the 4th phase of Chesed's realization, 500 HP just beating down 2 at a time  I think I'm hosed though, I was looking at what a card did in the last phase and it just vanished.

She's insanely good. +1 to everything is good, Faint Memories is a really good card, Wrath of Torment is a good card, she gets even better when you can get Health Hauler and Extract Fuel. e: R corp cloning deathmatch battle royale is hosed Acerbatus fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Feb 6, 2021 |

The only downside to Yujin is that anything that works off %HP is going to wreck you, but otherwise its an incredible page, yeah.

Do not divulge my secret technique. On a more serious, star of the city note: Carmen is 100% way worse than the Sephirot give her credit for, isn't she? They talk about her like she's a saint but she even put off the R Corp captains with how casually she talked about starting a war, not to mention authorizing the experiments on some of the abnormalities... I hope binah gets a better deck because man she's really falling behind. Acerbatus fucked around with this message at 10:50 on Feb 6, 2021 |

If you finish all the core suppression previously and then do a day 1 reset, there's a glitch that let's you beat the game in under 3 hours. Pretty impressive stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLiTIWpgOl8

I hadn't realized how few Endurance cards there are after like, Urban Legend until I went to look for things to use with her buff propagation passive. Work's pretty nicely with enlxmfflsdis yan's buff prescripts too. Black Silence is strong though not as insane as some of the other special key pages. I think Crystal Atelier is the secret best card since it opens with a 7-10 dodge die. Acerbatus fucked around with this message at 05:47 on Feb 10, 2021 |

This came up a bit earlier, but the lady in the R corp book is currently thought to be someone other than Carmen. She's a character from Distortion Detective whose name currently escapes me. But they do both have brown hair and red eyes. edit: oh what the gently caress awesome.

You can attribute the passives which reward you for having a Singleton deck, sorry, should've specified. Locked Potential and Raging Torrent seem to work pretty well on it.

I honestly went in with the full intention in mind to kick the crap out of Red the second I was done killing the wolf. If you're having problems, wait for after you get the books from R-corp to do it, one of them pairs with Gebura to give her +5 power on her infinite die, which will let her solve a lot of problems for you and practically solo the thing if you have to.

I never found Red as difficult as people claim her to be, after I grokked that the way to go is to just straight up not attack with most of your dice and only redirect attacks away from Red, unless she's slapped the 5 Disarm debuff on the wolf in which case you're free to go to town.

I wound up getting a good run a bit after I made that post, and the rest of the realization was easy. Especially since the length of it let Geb pile on the buffs until she was getting something like +10 on everything.

If Red hadn't wasted her turn dodging and had just shot the loving thing we wouldn't be having this discussion. Regardless, now that I've cleared Geb's floor, my new white whale is Xiao - who, having very solidly kicking my rear end the first time I went at her, was the very reason why I was powering up Gebura's floor in the first place. Round two with her went much better than my first go, but still ended poorly after I thought that I could firing squad down her last few hundred HP while forgetting about her completely nullifying power buffs on the first turn. Guess I'm going to have to actually figure out a good team to act as cleanup after my A-team bites it. Maybe using Yesod's floor? That Forsaken Murderer EGO page would do wonders for staggering her if I'm lucky enough to roll it...

I have absolutely no idea what to do with these send help Her book has 3 pages for each stance so you can singleton all of them(just throw Multislash and Will of the Prescript into each one, along with whatever 0-cost light boosters match the stance), just don't use Unlock. Also while you can use the Guard stance for shenanigans don't forget that Serpentine Barrier is an incredible page with a couple defense boosts(which Guard stance gets by default), it's effect is basically "block 3 pages worth of dice entirely". I keep a couple on the Nemo keypage(with 2 +1 def die boost passives) and it leads to hilarious shenanigans on the Floor of Religion with it's handy "double all defense stagger damage" page her one issue is that she can run out of page draw/light when you change stances as it also randomly changes your current pages for those of that stance's deck, so you might just get all your 3 cost stuff with no light and welp Yinlock fucked around with this message at 22:30 on Feb 16, 2021 |

With Xiao it's better to have Gebura take on round 1, then have your backup floor take her 2nd fight at first while she's weaker and they can work up Emotion, then let Gebura finish her off. Binah's floor is good for this as even halved Fairy is still extremely powerful against a boss taking that many actions per turn(and Pillar will outroll most of her stuff that isn't big number unga bunga, just remember to throw out fairies to keep your light up) Also remember to never ever clash with Inverted Scale on nullifying turns, as it means next turn she'll get that beefy boost Yinlock fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Feb 16, 2021 |

I bought this series on the steam lunar sale and i have a couple of questions. How long, in real-time hours, is lobotomy corporation? I know library is a direct sequel and while the gameplay aspect of lc appears to be fun, my main interest is really in library. If lc is one of those games that need 10s of hours of different playthroughs to get the true ending i think i would prefer to just read on the story and go on from there. Sorry if it's a frequent question but i haven't scoured the thread for fear of spoilers.

It’s hard to answer because it varies so much. My first run took ~120 hours to 100%, some people I know have spent over 200 hours and haven’t beaten it yet. It is rather time intensive, particularly late game where you get to go deep into the day before losing and wasting a half hour or 45 minutes as you start over.

GilliamYaeger posted:It needs a fair bit of time investment and at least one time jump to a previous day to complete, which will very likely be back to day 1 if you haven't been playing optimally (since day 46 is a point of no return and will bad end you if you don't have the entire facility built by the time you reach it). From what I've gathered the trick is to have the final two floors built up at 3/2 by the time you got day 41 so you can build one up to 5, clear the floor, then go back to day 41 where they're at 3/2 and build up the second one to 5 and clear it as well. Use books from the same tier, there's a general reception for everything up to and including SotC now. Axe Gang for whatever reason is the molar books, iirc.

For more data it took me just about 100 hours to 100% LC but I restarted more times than really necessary to give myself an easier endgame. And the 100% ending, which is what leads into LoR, is just a video that plays when you reach 100%, no reason you can't watch it on YouTube if you don't want to grind out completion.

MotU posted:Finished the 1st Tier of SotC, any recommendations on which stage to start on next? I do have some Abnos to make do to catch up, too I highly recommend setting up a "firing squad" floor that uses the Full Stop first turn power passives to act as cleanup for the harder fights like Index and Red Mist. Properly set up you can burn off a good few hundred HP in a single turn alone, which is invaluable when taking on opponents that would normally be out of your league.
