Force players to use Princess faction

Finally all this Leon-players would know how I feel when most ingame content targets his "Oneshot-running around a map", he-he-he

Today's Summer event level 55 stage in a nutshell. Like, wtf ZL? The only effective way to get the south bow aniki is flier Luna with wind spiral or if RNG Gale's 20% procs for Luna/Matthew flier, and even then he still does a crap ton of counter damage to you because aniki himself has no melee penalty. If your fliers can't kill him, he will literally 9 range snipe the rest of the party until turns run out because every one walks like turtle in water. If you have better strategy, please share.

Also in before some condescending mofo tells everyone "THiS sTaGe WaS EaSy WitH Mah 1500 aTk LUnA. Do Lvl 45 IF yOu DoN'T KnOW hOw tO PLaY.". I mean it's less about if the stage can be done, but more about "wtf is with that design man?"

Freya with high Def, try and keep Luna right next to Freya until the bow aniki is in range. So long as Luna is next to Freya, every time Aniki attacks it will proc Sorrowful choice. Obviously having a Tiaris will help you out, but just make sure Freya is fine on health and don't rush it, you can use any healer (sorry, no bonus unless you've levelled Faraqea)

This is basically what I did and it works. Agreed that the bow aniki is super annoying to reach though.

3
Triiti•

Yeah, whoever the hell came up with the idea of having an enemy which you could only effectively reach with a flying unit, force the flying unit you can use to be Freya (who is DEF squishy), and have the aniki be able to attack at a range outside even full flyer+spiral wind movement is just sadistic

1
truthd•

I did it without a flying unit. Use Lana's AE frost to slow the Anki down so you can reach them.

1
sdwoodchuck•

Much easier to run your party south along the beach, and then east along the little island chain. The level buff will make you damn fast on the sand, and makes up for the turns you lose on the “depths” tiles between the islands. This gets you to the bow Aniki, and everyone else comes to you. The crab and the serpent will reach you right around the time you reach the bow Aniki, and then the Cavalry one will be a couple turns behind, and unlike the bow Aniki, he won’t try to run away when you close distance.

Edit: Let me be clear though, I agree that this stage is completely asinine design and emphasizes the least fun aspects of SRPG gameplay in general.

I used Narm with Sprint and Tiaris. Took two attacks but sky archers don’t care about water.

3
Woedash:Imelda:•

I agree it is super long and annoying. The best way I have found to deal with the bow aniki, is after fighting at the top side of the map I have Hein tp Bern down to the bow aniki, stun him, and then Bern can usually whitel him down.

2
kingofwargs•

Bern gets no bonus. This doesn't really help.

3
GalbyBeef•

Completing the map with less than full bonus > not completing the map.

4
kingofwargs•

Yeah and I can bring Leon and Altemuller too... still no bonus.

4
Vier-Kun:Liana:•

I had 0 flying units available as a bonus. I didn't give up, I used Hein to teleport Lana to the aniki when I finished with the sword aniki (leaving Freya to finish off the aquatic enemies with her barbs on enemy phase) and sent her to use Dark Reaper on the bow aniki. He survived but killed himself on Lana on enemy phase.

2
homurablaze:Luna:•

this stage is easy af with my 2.3k atk luna

2
Nova6Sol•

Don’t forget penalty to range attacks :)

Hein TP Freya, flying elves on Almeda so she can do her job

Pray to RNGsus

1
homurablaze:Luna:•

in all seriousness though u need to have tiaris with atk blessing to pull this off easily

1
Plowgirl72•

I have cavalry aniki east and demon aniki south.. how are yall getting flyer aniki?

1
Fieltor:Lana:•

I had cav/infantry aniki east and demon aniki south both time. So my guess is that it's kinda a bit random who you get to fight .

1
NerdyDan•

My Lana soloed it

1
Etrensce:Lana:•

Just teleport a unit to the bow aniki once you mop up the stuff on the right. Reasonably geared Luna/Lana/Matthew should be able to 1v1 him. Takes about 5-6 turns which is not all that bad compared to that football map.

1
servant-rider•

Hein is rate up and can teleport a unit on top of the aniki

1
holyknight14:dieharte:•

I completed it easily with my shit tier Luna and Matthew each having around 700 attack, so maybe what you said applies.

THiS sTaGe WaS EaSy WitH Mah 700 aTk LUnA. Do Lvl 45 IF yOu DoN'T KnOW hOw tO PLaY."

Qolaas•

It was super easy but really slow (takes all 10 turns) and boring for my Freya and Lana + Lana, Tiaris and Amelda of other players. We first run down to archer-aniki, smash aqua dragons and him, and then run back to saber-aniki and killed him.

RefuseF4te•

I just sat back with Freya tank. Let everyone come to me. Was pretty easy.

Nilaru•

This. I just sat everyone around Feya and let her Sorrowful Choice kill the ranged guy over a few turns.

Exalderan:leticia:•

Use long range aoe mages with leticia and a tank and move to the northeast of the map.

Moulinoski:leon:•

I’m still getting through lv 40-45 aniki maps and macho blast is the absolute bane of my existence.

That said, when I finally conquered my first 45 and got that SSR flier tome, I felt so happy and accomplished. Like suck on this, aniki!

beardedheathen•

Oh they would. Gladly

Moulinoski:leon:•

Oh no, you’re right. :[

Killadun:vargas:•

Key to surviving macho blast is hp. If you’re getting one shotted by it, try using more hp gear, or enchants with hp. Raise troop training hp. Sometimes it doesn’t take much extra hp at all to survive the hit.

4
Moulinoski:leon:•

That’s more or less how I’m getting around it. Also, I like keeping my units close together for some reason but I’ve been spreading them a bit in aniki maps. That way, even if he uses macho blast, it won’t target everyone.

3
Killadun:vargas:•

He will typically target whoever he can hurt the most, like lancer aniki will center macho blast on a cav unit, or archer aniki will target flyers. You can usually limit who he hits to just that unit. Sometimes he will choose to hit a group instead of the expected target, so just separate them to avoid it.

At later levels, bozel makes things alot easier, just put the aniki to sleep. Shield bash works too. It wont help against macho blast, but once you get within sleep range he’s as good as dead.

3
servant-rider•

Targeting goes something like this.

Units weak to it < Unit’s closest to aniki (maybe further up) < multiple units grouped together

So for maps like Rocky where no unit is weak to flying, they target the closest unit first. Run your tankiest character up ahead to tank the blast

3
mianhaeobsidia•

does raising troop training hp help? I thought it did separate instances of equal damage to hero and troops?

1
Astarica•

The summer event seems to be filled with maps where you can only move one square at a time where everything runs in circle around you. One of these maps even have a mobility reduction perma debuff though ironically it's not too bad since you already can only move one square most of the time anyway.

5
iGouger•

Matthew, Almeda, Varna, Hein, and Ferakia aren't princess faction. Half the recommend units are princesses, sure, but it's a popular faction so grouping isn't that difficult and even if you don't use that faction, the other half the units aren't princesses.

LoyalSol•

Plus Narm is recommended and she can use sky fliers to go over water. She's who I used to kill the bow guy.

1
Lemonmuffing•

I already hated the map with the slime ball game.

chickmagn3t:Lana:•

Seriously.. these people are evil lol

ancientzonelover•

I was just complaining about this bullshit

2
refrainblue•

I like the level 60 challenge event where you have to defeat 6 Anikis... and then proceeds to resurrect all 6 on top of you as soon as you kill the 6th one.

2
Majestikz•

I like how every map after that is the same. So the first attempt always ends in failure.

2
DivineRobot•

I slow trotted my Lana with lancers down to get the archer. Took like a million turns but I got that mf in the end.

2
gofortheko•

The current meteor guild battle has the island in the center with water everywhere. Not really beneficial to that faction. Thankfully my main team is strat so I just use them.

1
Sutekh338•

I was lucky enough to choose flyer matthew so i use him most rounds to gove entire team a mobility buff.

1
winkieface•

I keep feeling the same about end game content, finding it more and more frustrating lol

1
Kronos86:Lana:•

Lana & Hein were my teleporting Nuclear bomb duo. Moved as a group towards the cav Anki. Freya, Horse Luna, and Lana took those guys out. After that was down I teleported Lana down to the archer one, she tanked a hit, then ate him alive with Dark Reaper.

SUPER annoying but not overly difficult. Still can't beat the lvl 60 challenge ;_;

1
13Witnesses•

Im confused. I thought today was Nimes and the Cav Aniki.

1
Rewow:leon:•

This post is discussing the summer events.

DMaster86:Lana:•

I don't get the problem with this map. I've done it with random people on lv 55 with bow luna and aoe spam lana, no probs whatsoever even the second run where there was no Freya to tank.

1
Azurethesniper:Lana:•

Why isn't princess faction multi universe brain, they have great units.

ducktronboss•

I do use the princess faction a lot

I had demon aniki down south today... Weird
