mampfoid Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Got a full -80 defense loss and lost my Raid today (forgot turn 7 has no EP ...). Rip tier 21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 250/day is kind of... difficult unless you have tons of Aether in stock, since it's hard to get 2 fights the last day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garlyle Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) @XRay My defense is Tibarn, L!Lucina, Lewyn, Aversa, Reinhardt and Eir. I think the reason was her high resistance and the fact that she had Steady Stance 4. Problem is she was so well positioned that Tibarn couldn't reach her. As for today, it was a success. I've got 140 from a Surtr+L!Azura combo meal and 140 from a Cavalry rush defense team. The second one probably lost, because his Minizura was walled in into the top-left corner for whatever reason. Also, I only missed smashing 1 pot, meaning I have enough Aether to do 2 raids tomorrow again. Defense results are not in yet. Oh, and my Lv2 ladder is still fine. 8,980 Lift as of now. I'm not going to lie, I'm getting excited. Edited January 24, 2019 by Garlyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only I had a better def map...but I don’t have either the units or the skill (or both) to make a challenging map. Also, I don’t think I’m good enough to make 250 lift every day xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinco Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Yeah, I think I'm also out of Tier 21. Lost a match today, now I need 900 lift to get there. If my def manages to go undefeated, it would be easier. But counting lift loss from defs makes it pretty hard to promote. Well, there's always next light season, I guess.

Othin Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I'm at 9.980, so I don't think I'm going anywhere. Might be able to grab another gold throne, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stroud Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 10,160. I just need one def win. But I don't get anyone. Was also the reason I tried to desperately get my hands on Leanne yesterday for a def setup. Wish they already released a dark hero. Or I would have pulled more for second Eir... oh well.

Chrom-ulent Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) My defense losses are improving. The first was a full -80. The second was a -60. Today's is a -40. ...Unfortunately, I lost 40 on offense from taking casualties. Getting 150 Lift per day is a pretty tall order for a Tier 18, especially when these opponents do a good job of protecting their pots.

Garlyle Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Wow, my defensive team dodged the first attack with timeout. Good job team, I might survive one day without defense loss, which would be huge.

DehNutCase Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Oh yeah, using Reinhardt + Azura is 6 points immediately but full teams of +10 5* exclusive bonus units don't count as cancer at all. You can really tell the tier level of the average Reddit user, lul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuroi Tsubasa Tenshi Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Surtr also isn't that bad on defense, since he needs to keep Steady Stance 4 to not melt, leaving him wide open to other AI exploitation. I do love seeing Surtr +10s, backed by the 400-stone-orb-package-driven O Fort 4, get smited into my team and be virtually impervious, though. Granted, I did at least get a pick during the one defense that counted this morning because super whale Surtr doesn't solve positioning problems for other units. Laegjarn is supposed to cause rally trap problems for people trying to bait out Klein and Lilina, but the AI had an accidental genius moment against smited Surtr, lunging him out of the way so Klein could stroll down and smush their Aversa. Of course, Surtr then proceeded to stomp all over me, but it was slightly less painful than it could have been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious Sal Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 So far I have only gotten a -60 and a -20, with the counter being on ‘3 days left in season’, even though that’s actually 4, I still think that’s pretty great. If only I hadn’t flunked some attacks. 10160 right now, with 106 lift. So 176 at 08:00 in the morning. Wish me luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRay Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) Fuck! I keep on losing track of the stupid turn limits. They should make the turn limit count down visible at all times instead of just at the start of the turn. Used up my last ladder, and won only one match today. They should also include Enemy Phase for the 7th turn. It is fucking stupid they cut it off. Edited January 25, 2019 by XRay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icelerate Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I call myself Micaiah4CYL3 and someone named Leif4CYL3 challenged my defense team in AR. What a fitting match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed that no T7 EP is also a very weird decision. I apologize in advance if anyone runs into my defense team. I broke down and went to the dark side of running two L!Azuras. >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a bit annoying to have to go through the options menu, but at least it is there. 4 minutes ago, Kuroi Tsubasa Tenshi said: I broke down and went to the dark side of running two L!Azuras. >.> That is okay.

Ice Dragon Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 (edited) I feel like I'm starting to get really good at my current main team of Halloween Myrrh, Winter Fae, Legendary Azura, and 2 Eirs. I've been able to do a lot of sniping and tanking with Eir's reach and Fae's bulk, and Guidance on Eir has been instrumental in getting her in a Reposition chain to send her all the way across the map to snipe the last Aether structure. I think this week has been the most fun I've had with Aether Raids since it came out. I've used no ladders so far and have earned no fewer than 150 points every match. Now, I should make a cheesier defense team so it's not constantly getting run over. Edited January 25, 2019 by Ice Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect play requires you to win in all 4 possible trap configs. (12 if we consider the level of the bolt trap---gravity trap is less affected by level changes.) 6 hours ago, XRay said: Fuck!

You can check turn count by going to the menu---I check menu all the time in my Galeforce videos because I usually set my 'go' turn as the 2nd to last turn. Off-topic: Finally get to play AR on an afternoon rather than midnight, so I don't wake up fucking sleep deprived as shit. +I make tons of impatient mistakes because I need to just fucking sleep already. (Tue & Thurs I'm busy 10 to 10, not counting commute, which is beyond hellish for someone used to 10-12 hours of sleep.) As predicted, though, I didn't get hit today on defense, meaning it's still 'only' 500 lift to go. (I give myself something like 30% chance to crash and burn despite how good this looks---I'm so fucking inconsistent.) Edit: 51 minutes ago, Ice Dragon said: I've used no ladders so far and have earned no fewer than 150 points every match. I'm glaring at you with mixed envy and disdain at the resources at your disposal, btw. (For reals though I'm actually more jealous of the amount of light blessings you have than anything else. Fighting with stat disadvantage means you need to rely more on cheese, which further means you need to run a lot of different 'hard-counter' comps, which just isn't feasible without a lot of light blessings to toss around---and maybe different sets on Eir so I can actually run the cheesier sets my box technically allows but my team comp requirements forbid.)

Garlyle Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 And I failed. Used up my ladder, and earned a total of 100 Lift, couldn't even properly break pots either. This is looking terrible fot me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I can still make it to Tier 20, but it is starting to feel a little close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Javi Blizz Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 161 + 161 today, but only 1/4 pots, so tomorrow I’ll only have one match. Not enough to reach T21 I guess... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinco Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I'm at 10240 and I think I'll have 3 matches tomorrow. If I'm lucky on defs and don't screw up on attack, I'll get really close to t21. I think I have something like 200 lift of manouver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
