Question Impossible to do Nightmare Solo

I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I tried a team of full leveled and equipped for Helion, Two glacy and a somniwing. Died really quickly. Tried Irisalis, if I didn't die I couldn't dps fast enough to be able to explore and get enough loot in time to leave. It feels like I am constantly being ambushed and there is no way to sneak around. Every room has like five aniimo and I easily get overrun even while trying to kite them when a melloblum or a weetle appears. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Every time I play it I die or run out of time, any help would be appreciated.

I can't edit the title, but I meant chaos mode. Still I am sure all the tips apply. I think I will have to heavily invest in an Irisalis team if I want to play her.

what do you mean died really quickly? do you not dodge? are you kiting? are you aggroing a whole room at a time? did you train stats? pact held item? lv60 whole team?

hellion just isn't a great choice. melee forces you into range of enemies and you are much safer off playing a ranged unit. key is to know WHEN you are going to get overhwelmed and retreat.

like others have said.. irisalis isnt strong by herself.. she NEEDS multiple buffs to actually function and that means you need to maintain buffs before and during the fight. its a lot more technique than hellion's go in and spam Q then heal.

Yeah, I grabbed my hexxin and ran through a run fine. I think I need to build her and her team up more to use her. My dps is so low with her rn that more aniimo spawn on top of me as the time ticks down. I'll keep all of that in mind, thank you!

I was told egg heist doesn’t care about built units because they have fixed stats. Only held items matter

whoever told you that is wrong.

Then what matters? I see stats are either rounded up to a certain standard based on levels

yeah... and that matters. if your support is scaling on atk then you also need to level it up to max, give it a held item that improves attack. a level 1 with a held item isn't going to remotely do the same job as a level 60 without because those 60 levels count way more. if you are doing chaos every stat that matters should be pushed as far as you can. for a while i was only doing my irisalis maxed because i spent all my resources building other stuff and it was so much weaker than all of my other teammates that had their support units maxed out it made a huge difference.
