 First attempt got wrecked by some of the bulkier nodes. At least it's in the realm of possibility.

Meanwhile I'm not even sure if I'm going to clear, cause I reached the Dog+Fish combo and they just murdered me. Like, jesus christ, I can't see how I can deal enough DPS and manage clashes when everyone who resists Blunt is weak to Slash and viceversa and focusing on clashes means the battle never ends. Like Inquisitors already made me give up on low turning, it feels like the game either expects perfect team combinations or R Heathcliff to deal with these HP values. I'm gonna give it a rest and calm down, I'm probably just playing badly but man, between having 3-4 useless slots on my Sinners and the HP values that feel like they multiplied everything by 1.25 I'm not having fun in here.

111 on the Railway just before the last boss, so I need to clear the final fight in nine turns for the 120 banner, and that's assuming that it's "less than or equal to 120" and not "less than 120." I have a feeling that's not going to happen; had my first attempt get down to the inquistor and the boss before I lost a last-second clash, keeping him from being killed by the indiscriminate karma spam attack. Even if I'd pulled it off there, I would have had to do 1500 damage in three turns, and I don't think even R Heath, W Don and Shi Ishmael can pull that one out of a hat. I know there was at least one early fight where I could have optimized out an extra turn saved from not ending with just one guy alive, so I'm going to be very annoyed if it's a 121 turn clear. The Slithering Inquistor + Four-Legged Beast fight was kind of comical at the end just because the poison does not play nice with Shi Ishmael. Thankfully she got a crit at just the right time and squeaked out the 20 HP she needed to survive. Ibram Gaunt posted:The 3 mutated inquisitor fight is kicking my rear end, any tips? I'd be interested to hear any tips anyone has on this one, beyond "do damage and don't take damage." This one feels the most like me just not understanding some central gimmick to the fight, and it turning into a slow grinder as a result. It's not some form change based on high or low Instinct, I tried that, doesn't change the ridiculous defenses.

I really should have put regular Heathcliff instead of rabbit Heathcliff in this team but now I'm on Stage 10 and if I backtrack I will have to go through everything again. You know, I never thought I'd say it, but Stage 10 gives me so much respect for K Corp. Sure, the constant healing is irritating, but it's easy to set up a proper team comp to fight them and they aren't tanky to the point it's absurd. K Corp was actually somehow one of the LESS irritating stages? You just focus one and batter them down. N Meursault is hilariously good for it. Meanwhile, Slithering and Crawling Inquisitors have 1500, 650, 650 hp, and they're all weak to Wrath! Unfortunately, I used my wrath characters on K Corp because they're ALSO weak to wrath and they got beaten badly and now the only Wrath characters I have are Heathcliff and R Ishmael! It's not even that it's impossible, it's just so frustrating. The giant HP bars are really demoralizing. It feels like you're barely doing scratch damage.

I clashed everything because of all their self heals and always made sure to just Dodge the middle one when he did the attack + 2 mimic skill turn. That's it really, it took me like 12 turns though so I'm sure there's a better way.

The tip I was seeing was only clash with adjust shell and otherwise focus one down at a time letting eerie eyes go through. Specifically top, then bottom, then middle (at which point you start to accept the counter attacks).

Managed to cut down to 119 turns and get the super banner. Best chars to use overall are probably: Grip Faust - Good clashes, added buffs, AoE is king for a lot of stages so having access to representation emittor (and fluid sac if you have it) W Don - huge damage dealers with rip space, having telepole is really nice so you can charge faster. R Heathcliff - need to watch his ammo count, but having excessive burst damage is so strong, and getting the buffs from bodysack pretty much ensures you have a huge next turn thanks to the haste and attack buff. You can pretty much just straight up kill an enemy in the first turn of the last stage which really speeds things up. G Gregor - doesn't necessarily have to be G specifically but having ability to fuel your own Legerdermain is very useful (also you should absolutely uptie Legerdermain if you haven't already). Unfortunately these are all 3*s but since it's turn-based you really need damage and good ego growth.  and yeah gently caress stage 10 btw

Holy poo poo gently caress the Everything There fight. That one took me the longest and the most attempts to clear. I had to alternate between the big guy and a little guy, clashing as needed to stop the heal just so I didn't take too much damage from the bullshit counters. I'm glad I had G Gregor to soak those counters since he can just heal back up.

 Was pretty tight getting in the win against the final boss under the 120 limit with only 9 turns to work with, but R Corp Heathcliff being able to just kill Aida from full health helped a lot. Main team: Shi Ishmael: She got the MVP (19% of all damage done) and pretty much earned it. Getting her down to 50% HP in the first fight is trivial, and from then out on out she'll be one of your best damage dealers and clashers. There's two minor caveats: one, getting Gloom for Snagharpoon is hard when she doesn't make any herself, and two, when you start using Shi Ishmael then she's in for the long haul, because if she's out for a map she's up to full HP again and you need to burn turns getting her back down below 50%. She's going to be a fixture of Railway teams for a long while, I imagine. G Corp Gregor: Legerdemain good. N Corp Faust: Just incredibly solid clashing and good support. I didn't use Resonance Emitter too often, I didn't generate enough Pride. R Corp Heathcliff: Probably the one in the team the least out of the major players, but absolutely invaluable when he was there. Enables so many burst strategies. W Corp Don Quixote: Rip Space does a lot of damage, but Leap was also incredibly valuable, because it's hard to generate Gloom right now and it's a great Gloom attack. Sloth from Rip is good too. Didn't use Telepole much because Ishmael wanted the Gloom more. Valuable minor players: Blade Lineage Sinclair: Impending Day is incredibly valuable for farming Sins, and his second skill is a good Wrath attack. 1, 2, 4, 9, and 10 are all good stages for him, though he was only a main DPS in 10. Seven Section Outis: Reliable clashing, very tanky, The Odyssey Had a Purpose, more Sloth for Legerdemain. Good for stage 8 because of how it pushes you to soak hits. Kurokumo Hong Lu: His first skill being garbage means he only popped in when I really wanted more Slash damage, but his second skill is still amazing and Paralysis always has uses. N Corp Meursault: Pretty much just here to get grabbed by the tour robot without getting staggered. He did that very well. Didn't get used: Yi Sang, Ryoshu, Rodya.

I wonder how the game would feel if you either got a discard each turn or a second action in abnormality battles. It feels bad how like, N Corp Faust's 3rd skill's buff essentially never gets to be used...

Junpei posted:WHAT DOES THE NEW HONG LU STORY MEEANNNNNNNN Given that the story Hong Lu is derived from is about a rock that becomes a human (and then gets into some interesting relationship drama with their blood-related siblings), I think it's extremely literal. Hong Lu is probably not fully human in the way we're used to thinking of it, whether that be from Ruins-level magical bullshit or a Singularity or just a weird little quirk. There's implication the eye itself has powers, and that they've got some familial abuse issues and were treated as a tool / thing for their family to use.

If you are using the upper skill, you can activate a defense skill in the lower slot to get rid of it.

 Second attempt went way smoother, and I couldn't have asked for a more fitting turn count. The Sanity changes have made W Corp. Don, R Corp. Heathcliff, and Tingtang Hong Lu into even greater monsters than they already were.

The sanity change is nuts. It's gotta be adding the sanity to your coin flip percentage or something. It certainly feels like a 95% chance for heads at full sanity. Wondering if it's working as intended or if it's gonna get nerfed. Similarly I wonder if the railway is gonna get nerfed cause drat those boys is tanky.

They've also put out a better explanation on how the Season system works, I'll be summarizing the important details: -From the currently available stuff, all story-related identities count as Season 1 and the non-story related count as Regular. IE: From what it seems, both G Corp Identities, TingTang Hong Lu, Mariachi Sinclair, LobCorp Faust and all LCCB and N Corp Identities are Season 1, and the rest are Regular. And most significantly, all current gacha EGOs are regular. So you can always spark for W Don, R Heathcliff and Telepole for example. -Previous Season stuff will not be removed from the gacha, with the exception of Event IDs. So in Season 2 you can get spooked by N Faust but not whatever IDs will come up on Hell's Chicken. Event IDs never return to the gacha, so get your HamHamPangPang Don ASAP. -Finally, on Dispenser stuff, as mentioned at the end of a Season all Season IDs and EGOs get removed and come back at the start of the Season that's 2 places after, including event IDs. However, Battlepass IDs (lol, spoilers for Season 2?) and EGOs will get added to Dispenser, so you can spark for Legerdermain on Season 2 if you missed it. It seems after something is added it's never removed from sparking. TL;DR: There's no limited stuff as it seems, you should prioritize Seasonal identities over Regular ones for sparks since those are the ones that leave and MD farmers keep winning.

Seeing as how there's people beating at 83 turns (wtf how) and the only real reward for going to 120 or below is a shinier banner I think they'll be content to keep the railway at its current difficulty. If all you want is the practical rewards it's really not hard to just clear it, it just takes a while.

So if I understand correctly, Abnos would have better odds for heads at the start of a fight (and throughout if never hit by san reductions) but could have worse odds if sinners used san reduction effects on them, is that right?

Just finished Refraction in 113 turns! Just got a very, very clean start - none of the first seven fights went over 10 turns which gave me more than enough wiggle room to just sail through the rest of the run without even needing to try and go fast. Knew I had things in the bag when I calced things out and saw I'd beat the target by merely winning the rest of the fights in an average of 13 turns. N Faust, G Gregor, W Don and
