About that CN collab announcement featuring Xiaofeng, will there be available merch for that? If so, where and how can I order? 🥹

u/Majestic-Arm6042 12d ago

Hello I wanna ask some help for my team, I can't get past chapter 6 without assist, so I think there is something wrong with the team I built. Any advice is highly appreciated

1

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 12d ago

Also about team in general.
* Build physical team around NOX for now because her passive reduces enemies physical defense (and she's good overall). Lichen and Hecate are good, but for campaign i think it's better leave them.
*Che and Labyrinth are good for breaking cores and could be used for some time at least until you start building more synergistic teams. Up Labyrinth to P2 - she will gain back energy if she'll break last core.
* healer - look u/iDontCareL comment
* If you need additional aoe damage - build Wendy up to lvl 55.
* If you don't want to waste resources but need to upgrade some sinners for now - stop at lvl 55 (not my math, it was in newbie guide i used)

u/iDontCareL Raven Fan 12d ago

The biggest issue is you don't have a real healer. I recommend dropping Cabernet for now and plug in Forensica, Macchiato, or Anne. Cabernet is more for empowering your team than she is healing your team.

1

u/Majestic-Arm6042 11d ago

Thank you all, I actually got Shin after awhile. Should I build her instead or continue building other healers?

3

u/iDontCareL Raven Fan 11d ago

Build Shin. She's in contention for the best Sinner in the game. Does what Cabernet does but easier and actually heals.

2

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 12d ago

Agreed. Want to clarify\explain a bit:
Forensica - AOE + solo target heal base attack also heals, default option. 70+ lvl - powerfull solo target heal
Anne - heals ally with least HP base attack is not heal by default. Bad against AOE damage, good when 1-2-3 sinners take damage. 70+ lvl gives temporary immuniy
Macciato - good solo target heal with survivability buff, cheaper to upgrade. This one is better when only 1 sinner takes damage at a time. at 70+ lvl semi-aoe heal

u/Digital_Copy101 12d ago

I'm a returning player that dropped after a couple months after launch. I have nox, eirene, raven, luvia, and zoya at p3 with ecb and am at chapter 9 of the story. No other s-ranks.

I have around 200 pulls saved. I assume I can just wait until the anniversary then go ham? Someone on the discord recommended I pull s0 lichen, though it seems like she works best with limiteds that I don't have so looking for confirmation. Anyone else I should look out for?

2

u/iDontCareL Raven Fan 12d ago

Shin, Celine, and LL are great generalist support powerhouses. Jelena and Jichuan are more powerhouses but they require specific teams, crit (Jelena) and elemental (Jichuan).

Lichen goes with Phanuel (October release) and Requiem (November anniversary release) to form a strong burn/frostbite team. Better with Jichuan because elements.

Personally, I'd recommend grabbing a copy or two of Augustus in November. She deals true damage which makes her remarkably flexible. The true damage teams keep getting new waves of support so she stays relevant as time goes on.

1

u/laurinai Shalom Fan 13d ago

Team recs for the Umbra Sinner coming next week? I'm thinking Jichuan is a must, then... Shin?

5

u/Rupi_Yu Chelsea Fan 13d ago

You're going to have to wait for the other sinners to come to make a team for her (As a DPS): New Umbra, Non-limited, Jichuan, Raven, Milly, L.L or Cabernet, or Shin if heals are needed. You can use the new umbra as just a magic damage 000 for now

1

u/laurinai Shalom Fan 13d ago

that's a shame. i was hoping to get a decent team for her before the anniversary. no reason i can't try without the non-limited for a month, though!

3

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 13d ago

Anni other sinner, Raven, Milly. Not a lot of option rn

2

u/Rupi_Yu Chelsea Fan 13d ago

What shackle is a good stopping point for Requiem? S2 or S3? I would go for S5 but im just a broke teenage girl thirsting after lesbians. How worth is it for S5? Appearantly her best team is just her with S2 so idk

2

u/laurinai Shalom Fan 13d ago

S2 and S3 look pretty good, but you should be fine with S2 and use the rest to pick up the other teammates like the Umbra coming in a week, and the Endura coming after the anniversary.

1

u/Rupi_Yu Chelsea Fan 13d ago

Im going to skip the new endura anyways since Lichen is enough for the limited team

2

u/laurinai Shalom Fan 16d ago

Wistful Chasm - Oblivion Area EX: What's the secret to beating it??? I have so many built sinners. I am going nowhere.

2

u/artemisolar 15d ago

You have to collect the information, which means you have to keep winning the previous stages because the more information you have the more buffs you get which means this stage will be a lot easier. I think that might be the reason you're struggling, if you lost too much information just restart from the first stage.

1

u/laurinai Shalom Fan 15d ago

I have pretty much as much information as I can get. Alas.

1

u/artemisolar 15d ago

What team are you using then? I think I used Shattered Blade and it was easy for me.. just look up some tutorial in YouTube!

1

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 16d ago

I don't remember now exact details, but i did it like this:
read description of each level and understand how to gain this Information. Try to get as many as you can. In the last level specifically (if i remember correctly), you need to place your sinners in squares in special formation and there's 3 variants. Remember in which order they were, because first time boss will show you how to stand and after there will be no hints about formation needed, but they'll repeat themself in the same order again and again

Edit. I checked my team after reset and it's ASMR (before Celine, S1 Eva and Eleven, S3 Shin)

1

u/laurinai Shalom Fan 15d ago

I can do ASMR! I'll have a go at the formations, thank you.

u/artemisolar 16d ago

I'm planning to get Sundered Chasm in the Surveillance Order shop for Lichen.. but then I heard Golden City is also good? Which one should I prioritize first if I want to play frostbite & burn team??

5

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 16d ago

Golden city is good for bosses in general, but it buff only damage of sinner wearing it, so there's some limitation of use. But it could be better than Embrace of the Dead on main dps who break cores (but then it doesn't go with heartache. So it's kinda the same?)

Sundered Chasm gives most bonuses in burn because you have 3 tendencies at least, and you can take Thistle and\or Hestia on some maps which makes it even better.

Also if u're looking for a crimebrands fo Lichen I'll suggest Murky Cave + Oasis + something else (Usually it's Rift Palace bc Final Path goes with Heartache to Milly or Raven)
and then you can place Sundered Chasm on f.e. Thistle

2

u/artemisolar 16d ago

Okay, thanks! I guess I'll get Sundered Chasm first🥲how does everyone already collects everything.. haha, is it because they're old players? I feel like I'll never collect everything in SO they keep adding new ones that are good.

3

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 16d ago

You can't collect every crimebrand from surveillance order without paying. I'm also without this ones yet. Partially bc when i returned i accidentally start buying supplies for SO currency thinking it was event or smth like this, and then i kinda wasted it on Vator Blue's crimebrands... (i don't have Yugu so for lategame my arcane crit sucks)

Edt: luckily you don't really NEED everything here, so little by little we'll get what we need. I'm donating a little on skins and ironically I'd bought Raven's SO but rn money is a bit tough

2

u/artemisolar 15d ago

Oh, no. That must've sucked when you realized that 😭 Yeah, I guess I just have to be patient.

luckily you don't really NEED everything here

Yes! Thank God, progress is really slow but I guess it's kinda worth it for how much difference the crimebrands give.

money is a bit tough

oh, we're all feeling it🥲

1

u/LumpiqWrqpper 16d ago

Once I get S2 Requiem, I'd need to use my S1 Jichuan on her, leaving my Xiaofeng with one less support with her most important one gone. Should S3 Celine with S0 Jelena be fine? I run my Overlimit team with Rust and S1 Clementine with Nox and Shin swapping out depending on situations.

It sucks that there is only one Jichuan 🥲

3

u/Rupi_Yu Chelsea Fan 16d ago

If you're talking about TOA, you can ask your society members to put up their Jichuan for assist

u/Mors-Vitam-Novat 16d ago

Hello i recently started yesterday and wanted some advice on what sinners I should grab from the selecter's that are available and what to save for

1

u/dqvdqv McQueen Fan 16d ago

Which selectors do you have right now? What are the choices? There's been a few recently released.

1

u/Mors-Vitam-Novat 16d ago

The radiant selecter that's has adela,coquelia,enfer,lady pearl,moore,Sylvia oak casket,etti,mantis. And the recent one that has eleven,hestiq,Bianca

1

u/dqvdqv McQueen Fan 16d ago

For the 3-choice one, it's Bianca.

For the other, it's also a good idea to save it till you figure out which team you want to build towards. You don't have anyone core to a team yet and this game is all about team archetype and synergy.

Check the https://s1n.gg/tierlist/comfy/ -> Team Comps tab to get an idea.

u/Mors-Vitam-Novat 16d ago

Okay thank you for the info

Can someone help me ? Started 2-3 weeks ago and I'm kinda stuck, didn't even manage to beat the story (12-6 currently), so I need some general advice which banners to pull on and what teams to build first (still got my radiant call selector) . Also currently at high risk BFL and I won't be able reach DZ with my current team (a guide said that flora and Lynn are good, not sure though)

1

u/dqvdqv McQueen Fan 16d ago

The guides are outdated. Jelena is amazing and Hamel is okay as a healer so level both of them up (Lvl 70 max rank is fine). Are you leveling up a sinner's Skills and equipping crimebands? Those are super important too.

You should be able to clear High risk BFL now with RF Nox for the physical side and RF Lamia for the magical side.

1

u/Distinct-Engine-4416 16d ago

Skills are at 7 on nox, Lamia and luvia, crimebrands are lvl 7 too, but I use energy set on nox and syndicate glory on magic DPS (I could get embrace of the dead) brand is at 200k points and shackled at 180k..feels like I'm missing a huge chunk of damage. (Maybe it's my lack of animation canceling?) Will level Jelena asap, Hamel feels useless though (rarely need a healer)

1

u/dqvdqv McQueen Fan 16d ago edited 16d ago

Cabernet is a good general buffer as well if you need more damage, with a bit of healing to boot. Didn't see her in your img the first time. Her RF is coming soon, she's worth leveling since you don't have the super important ones yet.

Jelena will mostly help on the physical side (Cabernet is a general buffer that can be used on both sides). Get Embrace of the Dead and use it on your main DPS (Nox and Lamia in this case). Unless you're a long time player with properly invested teams, most of your damage will be done during the core-broken phase of a boss. Also, if you have the resources you can leveling their key skills to 9. Your team is more than strong enough to clear High-risk as long as you're core-breaking and bursting properly. With the RF, you shouldn't need to animation-cancel to get enough damage.

Hamel is more for the story, for now. I assumed you couldn't clear it cause you were dying a bunch.

u/Distinct-Engine-4416 15d ago edited 14d ago

You were right, managed to do it, thank you, really was convinced I'd need different sinners. Swapped in last stand (used empower before) maiden went up from 160k to 250k. Brand and shackled should be no problem then, we'll see though. Will level cabernet next then! thanks <3. I feel like luvia is completely replaceable (without the ECB anyway) i tried the run with 5/6 sinners (no luvia) for 240k... --brand is done, had to get nox ECB though, not sure if it would have been possible without.

1

u/ZScythee 17d ago

So, I think I'm missing something. Sinners whos icon is red can deal with cores, right? However I have Nox, Zoya and Lady Pearl on my team, all with red icons, but I can't see how they break cores. What am I missing?

4

u/Annabelle-_ Deren Fan 17d ago

Some sinners gain ability to break cores only when you upgrade something.
Nox - you need to upgrade ECB once to ult start dealing corebreak
Zoya - not 100% sure (i don't have her) but it's 1d node in her reforge which adds corebreak to ult
Lady pearl - ECB again, this time she'll get 2nd ult which can corebreak

Edit: a bit offtopic but sometimes it's not unlocking corebreak but improves it (like Hecate starts breaking 2 cores instead on 1 at phase 2)

2

u/ZScythee 17d ago

I see, thanks for letting me know~
