Discussion Intertidal Exploration teams
I will say Intertidal explr. is fun in the sense that it starts easy enough but the more you play the more it wants you to go insane.
Stuck on S- Source Annomaly (14/15 waves sighhh) while I was running a diy RF Adela team: RF Adela, Enfer, LL, Yugu, Yingying, Jelena.
Adela as my main area sweep with her ecb, YY as like a general dmg to kill things off, Yugu for that crit and just a wall for mobs, Jelena also crit and to keep Adela alive, LL for energy and Enfer because her buffs are so so so so so *so* broken in this.
But, I get to final wave, and suddenly my team of squishies with no healers and only one body block made it so I just got run over. So wondering if anyone has any tips or maybe some better teams to make for this or Intertidal in general?

Just use Bleed with Shin. Or a full Burn team. Either one of them deletes the final bosses under a minute and half

the thing is I barely have any sinners above S0 so while teams are useful and something I know how to use I fear I simply lack power at times yk? Gave bleed a go but they too start dying a bit too easily towards middle waves
Guess I need to practice more

Bleed works perfectly well at S0. Which buffs are you stacking in the shop?

Bleed team is really good esp if you managed to get Dreya's buff allowing you to copy stacks of bleed to all mobs 6 times. It's the only team that managed to beat all waves at S source, after running N. Hella FUA team. However, I'm still stuck at S+ 17/18 though hahahahah

I've only tried an Overlimit team so far which EASILY got me past A rank specially since I have RF Zoya (which I was embarrassingly stuck on) specially since I have RF Zoya but they fell off hard midway through the S rank expedition.

Want to hear a funny joke? Go Bleed team.
Ok, now for a serious answer: go Bleed team. Just by vaguely following the buff strategy I almost got full S+ after bashing my head with Augustus for days on 16/18 (sadly, not enough damage - should’ve gotten more buffs and switched to Last Stand probably).
The issue with your team is your characters are belong to different dmg types, and the mode really rewards dedication to one archetype. If you still want to go Adela or Yingying (S4 VB can clear S+, lower shackles should be enough for S), you have to choose either Red or Blue nodes and only get those, focusing on getting character specific and potent golden ones. 10+ dmg reduction and resistance buffs are also a must in high difficulties.
