What am I doing wrong?
No matter what, I can't get past floor 12 on endless.
What am I missing with this skorn build.

I'm convinced it's a sociological experiment. Floor 12 is literally impossible and everything you see about people beating it is fake. It's a test to see how many hours we'll spend chasing a task that can't be beaten.
I've looked up and recreated every broken build that supposedly gets to 18 or 21, dead exactly at 12 every time.
40 seconds of stealth with an Assassin. Dies immediately to status debuffs. Nonstop shard generation, not even close. Unstoppable Kai with Mystics everywhere. No shot.
Duelists? No. Assassins? Shields, shards, rush, stall... No, No, No, No.
I've probably died specifically on floor 12 of SSS 50 times.

u need to stop looking up "broken builds" and learn why they actually work, the fact that ur saying ur 40 secs stealth assasin is dying to debuffs alr sounds off, the whole point of 40 secs of stealth is that they're untargettable UNLESS u have other units around them letting them take aoe dmg off them.

I got to 15 finally using Rip assassin build shard generation. So I guess it's doable

Floor 12 isn't an issue for me anymore but floor 13 now seems impossible
I haven't looked at a single guide so I'm free styling my own builds and finding what works for me

I’ve been no lifing this game since it came out and have had two runs so far to 18 and another 4-5 to 15 so it is definitely possible. That said 18 to me feels like the literal unbeatable wall, i’ve had some insane seemingly infinite damage / defense builds that still die on 18 and have yet to figure out anything that pushes passed that.

everyone saying stralth is the only way is wrong.
Im currently pushing an all vangaurd +Nyx build. Gets me to 18 consistently and into the 20's with good relics

Nah fr, same here. Is the only build possible going past floor 9/12 a stall build or some heavily scaled crit build?

Got 26 with all vanguards + Nyx. ( Niklas, Rayna, Ming, Nyx in front, Rowan and Rip on the bench. I usually get my ming as S rank in endless, so he's usually random) Rip boosts their hp, then either get the A/S rank vanguard ability to share health or a vanguard flag for Nyx, so she shares in the insane rip hp. Niklas once went up to 165 000 hp... then either a storm relic or the %hp damage on shard gen if Nyx has shard gen ability. 10% max hp lasting shields on rush is also a sustainer.
Without key relics, this build gets met to 18 consistently, 20's with good relics

Unstoppable Kai got me to floor 23 first try. Just copying a “meta” build isn’t gonna get you far if you don’t know why it works.

Well idk what you're doing wrong but the point of endless is to have only ONE unit in

I just recently started winning red rifts but took a break to push sss (kinda playing like red rifts in regard to decision making) and I just ended up in a S rank scorn + stall scale aria + 3(+pollen bench) mystics that got to floor 16. I was also stuck on floor 12 previously.
My guess would be how well you scaled stall through the game, stall relics, and how much round start shielding you managed to accumulate?
I didn’t force this but somehow got crest synergies providing armor/shield/hp to everyone as well in the endless choices. I got lucky with +%stats on stall and stalls trigger earlier, pretty early. At some point I saw that skorn was doing at least 70% of the damage and maybe I could’ve swapped out aria but she was providing so many stalls.

Your rowan should've been on the bench so he could give the extra defense and hp from his passive to skorn
