Anyone interested in a video/tutorial? What kind?

[bojck]

Thanks Yeah that run was really hard to get, I didn't have much time the last days so had to sacrifice some sleep... I had some close attempts but on this last one everything aligned Almost died a minute before the end, but saved it somehow...

I saw that Wispy made it, just hope Abin didn't do 163 in the last minutes

[Argon]

Haha, same. Think I checked like 20 min before, saw wispy beat 162 too, but stayed third, and another reached 161. Was tense, stays tense, but I do think you made it. That was a very tough to beat time of yours so congrats for that run already

[bojck]

I am not sure... I was until 26 minutes before the season ended, then I didn't check and then the leaderboard was down :/

[Argon]

first things first, did you stay first?

[bojck]

Alright then, first two tutorials are uploading Garm @159 (with the end of the mob phase) and TBD @152. I'll try to address all the questions here in a short series. The ANB guide will come last, because ANB actually encompasses every single aspect of the game...

Using frostbeam on higher levels. The leaderboard had the top with frostbeam dominant on damage, even those with only one healer.

Nhat and Montresor ok noted that, will craft legendary level one lily and VoWs and see what it can do in the next ANB thanks for your suggestion

[Montresor]

kurtcabage like Nhat said, the drop off in bonus is pretty steep - craft the highest tier ones you can. i would at least try for epic.

i'll record a couple of videos of early mage trials later today. if you have enough gems, i'd try to get the 200 gem MoT crate - the vial approach works ok, and i believe bojck used that very effectively in at least one ANB, but for us sloughs the shatter is a big benefit. although in thinking about it, vial + lily might be enough.

some people go even cheaper, but for < 1000 gems, i think 130 should be pretty straightforward. expert + MoT crates get you epic gear early on. after that you can rely on the ephemeral boxes and farming resources.
inventory rows 60
companions 75
abilities/ passives 110
skill upgrade slot 400
MoT crate 200
expert crate 100

[bojck]

Yeah, other guys certainly have the gear and skills to do 161 or more... It's still early, I'm sure there will be some rearrangements. I don't know who Regalia is, perhaps it's Abin in disguise : D I kinda expect him to get all CT-ed gear and jump to 165...

[Argon]

Cool! So far I tend to run forwards between 2 overflow rays taking in a regular attack. My main problem are the fire pits especially when blocking that path between 2 rays. Running away too often makes auto-attack let me run into a pit. Turning that off doesn't work either because then I get a lot less osmosis.

Yes Abin seems to be the one to be beaten. But adding more CTs won't raise his dps much further. Maybe it'll be just a question of clearing time in 162. Others are out there too though, like who is the Regalia guy?

Anyway don't bother with filming if that reduces your pushing time. Good luck!!

[bojck]

Thanks That #1 is temporary, I'm sure Abin will beat that very soon... I have really good chances for 162, but don't have much time these days :/ Wasted a couple of excellent tries by pulling some skeleton archers from map pockets during the boss fights :/

TBD is a hard one - at higher levels it's like dodging Garm's attacks, spiced up with overflow and fiery patches. I'll make a video on that, but the general tips are to beam while she breathes fire (usually the second or third time), and once more a few spits after an overflow. Yeah, and dodge overflows...

[Argon]

TBD is my wall atm, so I would really like to see how you handle her in high trials. Last time I just stacked enough vit from new CTs to take in an overflow, but that won't be possible next time...

Edit: Congrats for tl161 and #1!!!

[Nhat]

Currently, you'll need to craft Legendary for the full bonus. Uncommon Lily gives +200% (vs +500%) and Vial damage burst for Uncommon is 3750% (vs 15000%)

No idea what will happen to these in the future... even if they're scaled according to hero level, they'll still be useful for the initial trial runs and farming - unless they also scale down the top value...

[Benedicto]

A video on how you do your final push in an ANB. I mean the moment you are ready to make your final push until the last trial you finish

[kurtcabage]

Montresor wow! thanks for your explanation this really help me a lot!
but the main problem i face in the last 2 ANB was, i didn't have that much gems to buy material create or even legend create
so the problem was lack of material to craft lily Vows or even GMC, with that mark of titan required, that will be too much for me hmmm

and can you record how you run TL clear in 1 minutes ? i already try several runs but my best time is 2:10 or 2:30
never below 2 minutes.

thanks before!

edit : after re-read your guide, i got all your point.
GMC is just optional pre level 70.
next ANB will apply your suggestion thanks a lot!
and one more question, do you prefer craft level 1 legendary Lily & VoWS in early game for the bonus ? or uncommon is ok ?
