Well, I suppose recent events have been showering us in LMD, whereas rocks are evergreen.

Also some other mats, but it's mostly the rocks I need to farm.

Rock farm is also a good place to grind Trust for less powerful operators.

The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!

Yeah, doing that too.

Well, the boss+bladehelm buff is one hell of an annoying challenge. These results before I got it. Despite swapping in Exu and SA, the real difference was just having Mudrock get whaled on a bit longer before activating skills on the left, which gave Schwarz/Mon3tr enough time to kill archer boy.

Blue Poison alt as a Brawler? With multiple stacking Arts damage DOT debuffs as she punches away? Yes please.

Closure #16. In which Amiya is a good girl who deserves head pats for reorganizing the base to run much more efficiently and without unnecessary overtime. And why Closure is in the red if she doesn't give Texas dolls to Lappland.

Also I think this is the last one?

The greatest myth is that Amiya will ever get time off.

No, Amiya, you live in the command centre. Accept it.

I'm gonna miss Closure Secret Files series. And we still haven't learn who her VA is.

Anyway, i finally beat the last Cc challenge with the two buffs for the Corrupted Knight brothers thanks to this video which involves letting the spear knights go while holding off the Corrupted Knights with healing Defenders before using Surtr on one of the brothers when one of them is about to die.

Ah, that strategy makes sense. It's Maria Nearl themed: pull a Platinum and decide you aren't getting paid to fight the Trainees.

It's been fun.

Yeah, that makes it easier. Not that I am particularly good at the "let enemies go" part, so they had to die.

My approach wound up with Mudrock stalling the left hand side (and Surtr waiting to nuke the guy whilst Thorns swung away) until I could finish off the one on the right just before, otherwise he'd nuke Mon3tr and Schwarz and wander through.

The worst result I got just because of how damn close it was.

I just got all the medals as well. Kinda poetic that the stage of the first CC I partook in was the cause of that.

Bout time!

BTW I got Aak to E2 now. I still have to do skill masteries, but I think that will wait until I can get about 30-60-90 S S3s (I also have to master Skalter's S2 and Warfarin's S2...and E2 Warfarin ofc)

In other other news, Standard banner's revealed. Skadi, Saga, Manticore, Firewatch and Whisperain are the focus units.

While Manticore would be nice, I learned my lesson about trying to chase a specific 5 star when I already have everyone else (on standard banners)so...skip

Well if you get lucky, Manticore can be recruited if the right tags pop up. Although, you need bare minimally the Specialist tag to show up and at least DPS and Survival. Like rare for that combo but still doable compared to getting something like TO and the inexplicably rarer SO tag.

I got everyone on the banner already, easy skip.

Did grab Siege out of the shop even if it's kind of a bad choice because Siege, though.

I didn't realize how powerful True Damage was until Mon3ter basically bullied Frostnova phase 2 in 4-10 :V

She only has 250 defence, what you're seeing there isn't the effect of true damage, it's the effect of Mon3tr getting an obscene attack boost when you start the skill that declines over time.

How good true damage is becomes more apparent when you're dealing with heavily defended units and eating them like butter.

I made a little more progress in the main story. That poor piano... Also, I wasn't expecting Swarovski crystal to have Product Placement in a video game, but there it is.

Now, the next main story mission recommends E2's, so it's now time for me to start using those Chip Packs I've been gathering. The first operator I promoted to E2 was Amiya, because main character (sort of). I had to buy the last few materials from the Contingency Contract store with the few points I've earned there, but I pulled it off. Now to decide who else to promote...

The Living Guildpact rules that coffee is an acceptable substitution for rest as specified in subsection … whatever.

It's that sort of thing that makes me wonder if Operator strength rankings are supposed to be universal or only relative to their racial baseline, since Hoshi gets... Excellent. Not sure Saria, Blaze, or Mudrock are that physically buff. Or if Gladiia and Specter are really even stronger. <_>
