Honestly I didn't find it that hard to figure out.While loving around with it at some point I just kinda noticed that while I had gotten successes on it, it was never while I was actively looking at it and had a bit of an epiphany moment. It helps that this game's very inspired by SCP, and one of the most famous SCPs has a similar relationship with movement and vision.

So I've been playing for a few days and really do like Limbus, mostly for the writing and characters more than anything. I do gotta ask though, how do you go about actually teambuilding? Mostly I've just been trying to use characters with big clash numbers/coins that hit an enemies weakness, and have enough sin to power EGOs. I don't know how much I should be worrying about status effects, they mostly seem kinda inconsequential. Maybe it's the low numbers, but it doesn't seem to me like Poise 2 or Damage Up 1 actually make that much of a difference. Passives, too, seem kinda odd, given that they require certain sins to activate. Honestly I've been just not worrying about them and if they activate, hey, bonus. Game's been easy enough up to this point, I'm just worried I'll hit a wall where I'll have to actually understand how this all works.

Making my way through chapter 3 right now, and just so I'm prepared for the dungeon, can someone explain Kromer? I've heard she's blunt resistant and burns/bleeds are a terrible idea, but I don't know anything past that. I'd really like to not have to repeat a dungeon (after getting my team squashed flat by baba yaga's ice castle in dungeon 2).

So I'm finally back from dungeon 3 to report: Kromer was kinda fine, actually? For all I've seen people complaining about her passive, I found it was really easy to gather 3 A Sign which completely negates it. She was still a heavy hitter and I might've been in trouble if I was under level 25, but it was otherwise smooth sailing. Guess I check out the Railway now? I imagine I'm woefully underprepared for it, but I can give it a shot at least.

Oh yeah, that does make a lot of sense actually. Not being able to disable that mid-dungeon probably meant a ton of people walked in with a team with incidental bleed and were just completely unable to even harm her.GilliamYaeger posted:Don't forget you can grab a unit off support.

Thankfully, Sinclair's base identity is both Slash based and also excellent; even if you pull his blunt identities you uh, probably don't actually want to use them.

Having given the Railway my best shot...I really don't think I'm prepared for this! My dudes are pretty much all at level 25 at most, and I don't think I have a ton of the meta Identities, so it really feels like an uphill battle. Could uh, anybody toss me a support unit to cheese my way through this? My ID's Y798752907.

I restarted Lobotomy Corp thanks to Limbus, with the intention to actually finish it this time. I'm on day 23, spent probably an hour figuring out how the hell [CENSORED] even works, specially crafted an agent to deal with it, and did a long day to grab its weapon. Then when it was loading the next day, the game crashed and I lost all that progress.  It's not the biggest deal ultimately, I really can redo the day much quicker now, but it's just...deflating.

The best guess I've heard about that is the more popular prosthetics are, the more they devalue K Corp's healing bullets, so having N Corp dispose of the prosthetic makers is a win for both Corps.

I think the best rates I've seen for a gacha came from FFRK. Banners usually had like 9-12 rate-up items on them, and you had a 12% chance per pull to get a rate-up. Generally there were one or two grand prize items, but practically speaking any of the rate-up items were useful. Also for that matter it had a system where you guaranteed got a 5 star item on a 10-pull, which wasn't always a rate-up item but it was like an 80% chance.

So it looks like Dungeon 2 is 80 event points base. If you assume you'll be at like 1000 points after clearing it the first time, you'll need 5000 more. That's...63 clears of the dungeon, or 28 clears if you have all the synergy bonuses from Identites and EGOs. Sounds terrible! (though if you just want the unique event stuff that'll only be 7-15 runs. Up to you how much you want to leave on the table)

For multi-coin skills, every hit is effectively base skill power + (number of heads x coin power). So Butcher Vivandi would deal 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 damage on all heads, a max damage of 30. (With minimum damage of course being 5 + 5 + 5 + 5.) And that's of course affected by enemy resistances, passives, ego gifts, etc.

As far as grindable events go I think I would've preferred if there was just a daily mission to do the dungeon (that gives a ton of plushies of course) As it is, though, I'm almost done. Got like 5 runs left I think?

Finally finished getting everything from the event. Wasn't the worst, honestly, I basically just did some dungeon runs whenever I was otherwise watching a show and I ended up blazing through it. Probably helps that I managed to snag both Chef Ryoshu and Sinclair's Stew. Definitely hope they tone it down for next event, because I don't love that. Anyways, now to get back to Railway! I think I'll have a much easier time of it now, I've acquired G Gregor, Chef Ryoshu, and Bunny Heathcliff since then.

Yeah, my general strategy has been to try to kill 2 chickens and break the chicken bucket on like turn 1. Stuff like Shi Don's Dual Strike, Chef Ryoshu's I.C., or Base Sinclair's Halberd Combo/Ravaging Cut can kill a chicken immediately, and if I get lucky with a Quick Suppression I can take the bucket out immediately. From there it's mostly smooth sailing, like he can still bust out some crazy attacks but with less chickens on the board and no ability to summon more it's a lot easier. If you don't have enough damage to take the boss out immediately, ignoring the chickens is -15 SP per turn, which is...not ideal.

Shastahanshah posted:I hope they stop giving generic defensive skills though, they're pretty much useless as far as I can tell. I mean, evasion can be pretty useful. There's that robot abnormality fight in the railway where a sinner with evasion can completely avoid getting kidnapped entirely. Also Sinclair seems to have a pride based defensive skill, so I could see that coming in handy. I do agree that people getting more unique defensive skills would be cool though.

oh thank god i finished before the deadline Pros of waiting: I was able to use Chef Ryoshu, who is legitimately fantastic and I'm pretty sure I achieved some clears way quicker than I otherwise would've. (She's also actually able to do the lust 15 skill check on the final stage, which it seems like very few sinners can) Cons: I'm pretty sure pretty much every piece of advice for this was written under the assumption you could abuse the skill recycle glitch, and I'm not sure some of those clears are even possible anymore.

On my first try none of my sinners could do it. The number was literally always bigger than their biggest possible number, and the percentage chance was listed at 5%. Switched in Ryoshu specifically because it had a lust advantage that she could hit.

GilliamYaeger posted:It doesn't matter if he has high sanity with his skill 3. Its clash power gets stronger as it loses coins. Even if you have positive Sanity going in, that last coin will always be 18-30. That's basically an EGO. Which, I suppose, is fitting considering its animation. I mean, that's cool and all but I'd still be hesitant to use it before dumping his sanity. Kinda feels like a waste of all that damage potential to win a clash and hit for 18-30. That being said though, he is an incredibly strong clasher, huh?

Wait, is "Targets unit with the most HP" based on percentage or the raw number? If it's the number then this is like, possibly the safest corrosion in the game, it'll only start missing bosses when they're basically dead. Also I do like seeing some rupture support, depending on how much dimensional rift you get off these rupture might actually be a thing now.

So there's a whole lot of variables to Railway that makes it hard to recommend a braindead strategy, but I will say that a lot of fights generally boil down to "use 1-3 of the best damage dealers (R Heath, W Don, Tingtang or Kurokumo Hong Lu, probably Chef Ryoshu and N Sinclair as well) and the rest of the slots with useful supports (primarily N Faust and Seven Section Outis), and just try to constantly hit weakness". For something a little more involved, this spreadsheet is really, really good. Features a lot of talk about what characters are good, when and where to use them, and general strategy for every fight (as well as some par times to try and hit). It was written before Chef Ryoshu and N Sinclair came out, to be fair, but they're worthwhile additions due to the crazy damage they can add. Oh, and of course remember that you can always borrow a sinner from a friend, assuming you don't already have all the OP ones. Arzaac fucked around with this message at 21:10 on May 17, 2023 |

I spent the last of my tickets on the banner for a total of 30 pulls. No EGOs, but I did grab W Don so I'd call that a win! I'm sitting on about 7000 lunacy, not sure if I wanna throw the rest at the banner or simply wait and see how far my remaining boxes get me.

Kinda curious if theme teams like that are gonna end up worth it in the future. At least as far as railways goes, it really seemed like the dominant strategy was just running the top tier DPS and backing them up with some damage support. At least the core of this team is what, Rodion, Meursault, and Ishmael? Those 3 don't really have any overpowered identities so you could slot them in a Railway Run without stepping on the toes of a strong DPS team, and there might be a station where they're useful.
