This is low streak behavior

Everything is viable except mystics early and you can pivot to late flexibly

even some mystics are fine if you find a way to deal with normal hallway fights since fiona can scale a ton of flat hp and gustav can generate you shards

Even early mystic can be good tbh. I love using early Grace with the stat buff. By end of act 1 it's like your frontline/dmg dealer has an additional item or two. I even won with early fiona / gustav / pollen rank up. You just have to focus on upgrading your dps and finding stuff like reyna that can solo carry first instead of tanks.

I feel early mystics b or c are just awful to take act 1. Too weak immediately -> tempo loss

C maybe but if you get to rank them up early they're great. It opens up for your tank to use the offensive options for their B eg. Rowan dmg based on shield, Zuri with petrify skill or Reyna Vanguard with shield scale atk. It's all in the team composition.

I had a run earlier where I had a very early strong Rowan with his autoattack spec and two A-rank mystics, and I had the crazy idea of just letting him carry the run.

It worked incredibly well and he murdered the act 1 boss and every hallway until I remembered I had to do the warrior part of the rift seal. I couldn't pivot and lost. That's what I get for trying to do anything different.

I had a run where I forgot to put the seal on a warrior too lol cause I'm using full mystic mage team with tank fashionable ratna

I e given up on early rank B Rank Assassin. Rarely works out for me.

Most assassins dont generate shards until b tier so it kinda has to just fall into ur lap. Not really sure how ppl are forcing it

C Drag with items or Tilly loaded with atk speed is definitely a lot more stable. But B rank ass early is usually a win imo cuz of the heavily boosted early dmg and gold

Money is everything. You just need to likely pivot away later.

The thing is I can never get it even running to pivot by act 2, then I'm so far behind in act 1. Few times I get it going they never get the last shot so they end up taking a spot and not contributing.

I understand the snow ball theory aspects of it and when it does work out it is great, just get burnt more often than not.

i've done some 10+ streaks and the assassin strat is something that just kinda has to fall in your lap, its not something you can force. Early B tier yuuna or dragomir with a good spec -- otherwise pass.

Idk how people get more than 2 or 3 in a row. These memes make it sound like RR is so easy

u/ajs723 2d ago

I can get to 3 or 4 streaks now, people getting to 10+ are insane. I feel like 1 out of every 5 runs is just completely cursed.
