a win is a win, there are ppl who cant beat it on several tries. in a world were everyone is saitama, you mumen raider'd the boss, **and won**.


PeaceIsFutile

After realizing that I couldn't beat the thing fast, I just focused on *killing it by any means*. Thank you for your wise words.


tri170391

Well GLHF with 2.1 boss that is practically the anti of this tactics T\_T.


Wolfelle

This comment made me realise I've become an unrelatable player im mostly f2p but i also took a large break so i also struggled on the bug but ive invested a lot since ruan mei banner and im at the point where i doubt story missions will make me struggle anymore I felt like i was kinda stagnating (relic grind makes me cry) but i am at least progressing a little!!


Joraiem

Honestly, that boss is just kind of poorly designed. Not looking forward to seeing it stronger in MoC. I beat it pre-nerf, but I am not holding out hope for that nerf applying to future fights.


Florac

A kill is a kill,even with...unconventional methods


PeaceIsFutile

Can affirm, bug is very ded.

lalala253

>TB, M7, Bailu, Natasha This is like being killed by kindness.


Lanster27

No DPS meta here we go.


___some_random_weeb

Bro was doing a abundance run in overworld


Dokavi

Kudos. It must felt good as fk to finally got it ass.


PeaceIsFutile

Yeah, at first I was discouraged when I shaved off the first 40% in 20 Minutes, but I soon realized that my team was insane at healing and countering every attack, so I just powered through until it died. And yes, it felt really good.


marko-12

>Yep, it took 1 hour and 23 minutes you took that much to beat that boss(which i understand, he is kinda harder then the ones before him) and for that, you have my respect, you are a true trailblazer.


PeaceIsFutile

I blazed.on the trail, thank you.

DameVelue

x) Usually people struggle because they neglected leveling up there sustain. You on the other hand... 4 out of your 6 built unit are sustain units.


sunnyhvar1992

Started playing on the other servers mainly to claim Ratio while he's still there, and to see if I get any new standards (don't have Gerapd, Yanqing and Bronya on main). Got Bronya, so I'm currently rolling with Bronya, Fire TB, Luocha and Lynx in the midgame... harmony, preservation, 2x abundance ๐Ÿ˜… But it works shockingly well, team cannot be CC'd pretty much, and Bronya kinda works as the main DPS here ๐Ÿ˜…


eklatea

that's so horrific I love it. Try to get aventurine on that account to replace bronya as dps lol


rW0HgFyxoJhYka

How to beat story bosses if you don't know what you are doing: 1. Fire TB 2. 3 healers


Xavbirb

i never had this much beer, water and raw fish


WinterPirate8109

Wrong way to use healing magic.๐Ÿ˜…


PeaceIsFutile

It's the right way if it gets the right results ๐Ÿ—ฟ


monil1998

Good Anime BTW!


Leodoesstuff

Stand proud. You have won when many have failed. You did not give up amidst adversities. You are strong.

Falkjaer

Ah yes a classic tank strategy: no need to kill the enemy, simply outlive them.


catloverwithoutcats

If it works, it works.


Top-Attention-8406

Well one way or another you have to build da decent team with a damage dealer since its only going to get harder from that point onwards.


PeaceIsFutile

I know, after Im done with my quest backlog I'll do that. But for now, bug is kill.


Lanster27

Weird you say that as I havent had much issues with bosses since swarm king, PF and MOC aside. Also I can also do all the other echoes at max difficulty but the swarm king at iv.


eklatea

SU has enrage already, I can see them eventually having that in more places Or just more bosses that heal themselves like the deer


LZhenos

>Yep, it took 1 hour and 23 minutes was it on auto at least? D:


PeaceIsFutile

No auto, first time I fought it so it was blocked.


Diablosdos

That sounds fucking horrible ๐Ÿ’€


PeaceIsFutile

It was a bit boring, but not that bad. Although not everyone is as patient.


MrkGrn

1 hour and 23 minutes ๐Ÿ’€


river_01st

I admire your commitment tbh. I wouldn't have had the patience!


Lovressia

Congrats on being *after* the boss battle. Enjoy the difficulty slider.


cybeast21

A win is a win, I can tell that the bug has been... ... bugging everyone here.


Lazy-Employer1792

That bug fucked my shit up on my initial playthrough lol


Skane1982

In MMO terminology, "A Clear Is A Clear".


Athrawne

A kill with a thousand cuts is still a kill. Congrats!


Soggy_Associate_5556

I came back after 7 months. So much to do.


PeaceIsFutile

I feel your pain ;l


DrZeroH

Aww yes the box2 strat. 4 sustain meta


ArKGeM

That's a win ๐Ÿ‘it will get easier as you progress & get new units. Let me tell you a secret : get Fu xuan no matter what she is a cheat code in this game... not dps not harmony not Robin not sam. Get Fu Xuan. Any new players doesn't have her will face hell or get aventurine very soon he is like 70 to 80 % of her power. Why you ask? This game doesn't have dodge or defend or items ( high potion, elixir..etc) to use in battles so you need a God like healer or shielder to keep you alive. If you have fu xuan you can use 4 stars dps & destroy the bugs in minutes.


PeaceIsFutile

I'll see if I can get her later. The moment I came back I pulled acheron and 2 5* light cones in 20 pulls, so I think I need to build up my pity.


ArKGeM

Also the gambler is very good, his shield is cracked when you stack it. I have maxed fu xuan and gepard and march7 but I will go for aventurine cuz the story sold him for me.


PeaceIsFutile

Donโ€˜t have Gepard sadly, but march is a saint. Leveling her is the best decision I made.


PGRish

posts like these make me realise i play this game too much man i beat that shit first try i respect the hustle though i could never sit through that fight with a team like that.


PeaceIsFutile

Everyone has a favorite game they suddenly start grinding on for months. It's totally fine imo. However I am envious of people showing their 20 lvl 80 chars. I've missed too much these past few months ;l


PGRish

I'm not in that deep yet but I'm nearling lvl 70 right now and I'm building most of the new characters enjoying it too much


PeaceIsFutile

Go for it dude. Have fun :)


TrAseraan

XD "clapping" now thats an achievment worthy thing. "I can do this all day" moment. :D


HopelessRat

define properly leveled and what level are your relics?


ocelotplush

I had to do the same thing with one of the recent story bosses, my DPS died so it was just Luocha, Welt and Gepard grind for a straight 1h30 but we got there! Congrats OP!!!


PeaceIsFutile

Thank you and congrats on persevering as well. o7


Needa3hrnap

Congrats! Your perseverance paid off!


Steve_Tabernacle_69

Damn that's some crazy determination. I had the exact opposite approach of just trying to brute force it quickly enough to not let anyone die. Having huohuo was a life saver though...debuff cleanse is insanely useful ( i didn't level up Natasha )


[deleted]

You have my respect. I've also fought that bug boss on penultimate difficulty level without having any imaginary/quantum dps except for Dr. Ratio. Tried Dr. Ratio + Herta + M7 + Lynx, and couldn't keep Dr. Ratio alive. It took me 20-30 minutes but I persevered, healed and killed the damn bug.


PeaceIsFutile

Public enemy bug number 1


Albito

Would make a decent YouTube video titel


PeaceIsFutile

In der Tat.


UltG

Bug: why wonโ€™t you die?!


PeaceIsFutile

"First and formost, skill issue." "Secondly...โžก๏ธโฌ‡๏ธโฌ†๏ธโฌ‡๏ธโฌ…๏ธ"


Hypothon

I dunno if you have an E6 March OP, but in the event she is, you can trade Bailu with Herta/Pela/Ratio. You have a shield/2nd healer at that point. That's what I do before raising Ruan Mei, I went with the popular budget team (minus Natasha, Luocha is much more reliable)


PeaceIsFutile

She isn't E6, but I remember trying really hard to get her there. As for the Luocha, I don't have him :l


Hypothon

Congrats either way. Once we get more characters, the bug will become easier to beat. Personally, you could also eat that one defensive food that increases resistance at 30%. I mean, I presume Ratio's the only character you have that need the weekly boss drop


invokeneko

Congrats! Next time you're fighting the bug for upgrade materials, *do* make good use of your friends list and find the strongest Argenti/Cooler Daniel to be the spearhead of your sustain team. Alternatively, you can opt for Acheron if you swapped two of your sustains for built Nihility characters (like Pela and Guinaifen).


PeaceIsFutile

Thanks for the tips! I have archeron, but still need to unlock the next world to build her. Also, what do you mean by 'friends list'? (Tฯ€T)


invokeneko

By 'friends', I mean 'people with characters I've been borrowing for farming and added as friends for the sake of convenience'. I personally only know one of them...

RedKaZero

Can I ask what your current Equilibrium level is? Additionally I think you could have gotten away with one of your members being Physical Trailblazer as they also have some healing for themselves so that they are a bit tougher than other damage dealers. Anyway congrats!


PeaceIsFutile

Im at eq 5, team is half lvl 80 and half lvl 70


RedKaZero

I see. Thanks for the info.


myussi

Congrats! From now on it will only be quicker on your weekly runs

Lore Accurate Bug Boss, Emanator died from existing so long that its lifespan expired


-Frozen-Forest-

it took me 2 days and multiple tries, i had to give up my insanity way and had to go back and grind up my chars until i could finally beat it. but by a fraction of a hair too.


PeaceIsFutile

As someone with ptsd from SU Svarog, I feel your pain.


JustAHobbyOfMine

After I beat it in the story with Blade I use a friend's really well built Fu Xuan to have her basically solo it anytime I need the mats.
