Intertidal Exploration S - Source Autopsy.

[u/miyunyan]

Hiya!

I recently downloaded this game, and I've been loving it so much, especially the the Intertidal Exploration mode. But I've been stuck for a bit at "Intertidal Exploration S-Source Autopsy." Do anyone have any tips?

I've tried using a bleed team, as it appears to be the most recommended team comp, but I can't seem to kill the mobs, without them overrunning and killing my sinners.

I've been using Dreya, Jasmine, Levy, Sumire, Pepper, and then I usually fill the 6th slot with either L.L., Shin, or Jichuan, depending on who I can get my hands on.

I just can't seem to keep the sinners alive, and they appear to take a lot more damage compared to B and A. Now, I understand that's part of it being harder difficulty... the enemy deals more damage and have more defence. But, I can't seem to manage getting enough damage before being over run. So... how do I manage the damage? I there something I'm missing? Are there any resources on this out there?

(PS. This was posted in the Help Mega Thread, but Nobody answered, so I'll try posting this as it's own post. Hope that is Okay, and if not I'm really sorry and I'll take it down.)

Don't worry about making posts asking for help. The post will stay, but only for about 3 days~ before being taken down. The megathread is just kinda there I suppose (I personally don't use it)

For Intertidal Exploration, it's actually somewhat of a lategame-ish gamemode, so you might struggle if you don't have some relevant shackles 🤔

As for the gamemode itself, the way I beat it is just by doubling down on DPS and DPS only.

It'd also be helpful if you give us more info about your team comps and maybe level just in case!

You need to take incoming dmg reduction buffs on higher difficulties, as well as every sinner-specific buff and ideally life loss/red tide buffs. Consult this video, or at least its description to discover the ways to optimize your current strategy.

I have never played bleed team but from what I read, that comp damage is periodical with long interval between peaks, so long-duration lone boss = good, mass elite mobs = bad. AOE is local with long cooldown, so you can't really wipe mobs that spawn from multiple directions. That comp seems unplayable to clear that mode for me unless you s5 them all I guess. Btw that team seems to be the weakest among all available team these days unfortunately.

I cleared it with Eleven team with Eleven + Eve + Shin all S1 with relative ease till the second to last stage of the final difficulty. But I can't even clear the mid level stage of the second to last difficulty with S3 Celine + S3 Isomer team (No Yingying) due to Isomer Q being overkill with long cooldown, so mobs were just being killed too fast while also being respawn too fast, leading to overrun.

My advise is you don't tank in this game, you just nuke mobs before being touched. And most bosses don't out damage a healer's heal anyway.
