Let me start off with an unfortunate trivia. The donor abnormality Heroic Monk was designed to be 'heroic' and breach containment in time of need and assist players in suppressing escaped abnormalities(like Magical Girl or Red merc's request). At least, it was supposed to. Unfortunately the donor left out the "assist player in suppressing breached abnormality" part, which resulted in the current """heroic""" monk as we know it.
As usual, how goes your corp, any particular thing you're wondering gameplay or lore wise, ect ect.
How badly do you actually have to fuck up to get Magical Girl out to help you? I lost 14 employees and she still didn't show up.

Second trumpet. Remember that she can freak out even if she's out and helping you
Brandon Parker
Now that the threads are picking up steam, do you think more drawfags will start doing fanart?
Kayden Wilson
How do trumpets work? I'm still fairly in the beginning and just unlock Info Team and I always only got the first trumpet. Does that mean the type of trumpet depends on the type of anomaly that escapes?
Christopher Martin
>Unfortunately the donor left out the "assist player in suppressing breached abnormality" part Oh shoot. To clarify, the part was left out by mistake, not intentionally. Attempt to fix the change was unable to be made due to the monk being added a day before launch or something.
Oh and also, melting love was supposed to be tagged as a zayin abnormality and be even more infectious than the current state, to even further the oh shit effect. Unfortunately that concept overlapped with whitenight and eventually got semi-scrapped, leaving the current ML.
It depends on how much shit is going down which is a combination of abnormalities escaping and employees dying. Also the size of the facility is taken into account.
Charles Green
>give a guy Der Freischütz's rifle >he ends up killing three fellow employees in one shot
alright that's pretty funny
Hudson Reyes
*nothing personal... kid*
Elijah Gomez
The alarm levels indicate how much shit is fucked in your facility. Generally employee deaths or ab breaches trigger first trumpet. Second trumpet is rather fucked. Third trumpet is "you should press restart button now".
There's always the hard reset option by clicking the logo on the main menu if you want to start all the way over.
Daniel Gonzalez

Daniel Clark

James Robinson
Nice. Does god save us all on the 7th?
Blake Bell
There's a reason why you never hear past 4(and only one specific thing triggers 4). 3 is the max you'll hear in normal gameplay. 5 is multiple 4s happening in many lobcorp branches 6 is situation completely out of corp hands as a whole 7 is humanity's extinction
I like purple the most because the difficulty is the mist well rounded. The other two butt fuck you the first couple of times really hard but as soon as you realized their blind spots, they became a non issue.
Joseph Brown
>tfw no blue dawn, dusk, or midnight
Dominic Powell
Considering how Nothing There seems to be obsessed with the Manager, imagine if allowing every employee to die while Nothing there is breaching ended with a jumpscare if you didn't reset the day as soon as possible, as Nothing There finds you with the game crashing shortly after
Goodbye
Landon Morgan
You can usually cheese it a similar strat to Green Midnight with the elevator's near Hod and Neztach's departments, I usually go for white first because it covers the most area, then red/purple then pale. You kind of have to just tank and dodge the eyeball until everything else is dead. Also from memory, poking the shrines immediately kills off any active portals elsewhere in order to protect itself, so you could do some insane micro'ing back and forth.
>Goodbye >not a series of screams saying Manager all at once

Don't quote me on this but I think Heart of Aspiration also works if you get the agent to even TAKE out their weapon, no matter if they don't hit a thing I had an Agent grab it before trying to kill some bugs so they could enjoy that sweet sweet HP/ASPD but the Clerk Squad was on the fucking job and absolutely goddamn murdered them all before she could get there she didn't go insane tho

Not to sure why everyone started dying to wellcheers honestly. I assume its bad luck because the previous day was fine.
Julian Rivera
>Meat Lantern Aaaaand restart
Wyatt Richardson
hardest part of the game is just getting settled into the convoluted and clunky U.I.
Once you settle in it's pretty basic, and it just becomes dealing with your first few difficulty abnormalities with shitty dudes. Then eventually your first Aleph. And then eventually to micromanaging everything.
Just shoot the flower user, you have employees with ranged weapons right?
John Hughes
Protip: always unlock management tips first, it can tell you about potential instakill pitfalls. Maybe train up your guys a bit more, alternate so that the injured ones have a chance to heal. Wellcheers is only a Zayin, so if you're having a hard time with that you're in for a bad run.
Jacob Ortiz
Why, it's the easiest to suppress.
Ryan Martinez
>Nothing There's sword and Butterfly Funeral's gift
Your employee is wearing basic armor and should be wearing Penitence. You can buy more than 1 from Skull Jesus. If the soda filled the room to kill them, there's a reason for it.
Joshua Anderson
Yeah unlocking all the stuff pretty much told me me it was just having a bad day so people were getting messed up
Evan Young
When it has a bad day, ignore it. And always remember to give your employees armor.
Evan Carter
Oh, and one big, big thing to know - there's a Work 'level' to all stats that only increases through doing work - even if you raise an Employee's specific stat level to V, with no work they'll only have like 65-ish in that stat when it softcaps at 100
Jace Brooks
Not user but I usually have my employees lurking in the hallways. When lantern or King breaches I immediately get a kill notification when I a have bad luck.
Nicholas Hall
Put them in elevators/side rooms to avoid that, specifically. Just a tiny bit of extra time for safety from most abnormalities that breach into the hallway.
Jayden Wilson
>The tutorial is pretty bad Impossible. Angela herself lead the tutorial.
Brody Thompson
>cognition filter fucks up because he chews the electrical wires to get to you >hyper realistic nothing there that would be fucking terrifying
54 will give you a big fat slow weapon that hits real good and armor with red/black resist. I highly suggest it.
Adam Lopez
I keep my employees in elevators. To change directions quickly, be safe from Ordeals/abnormalities, and intercept shit.
Christopher Ross
You can just ignore old lady after unlocking her stuff, since her (very minor) bad effect only trigges when someone enters her room anyway.
Those three aren't really threatening at all. The right one is weak and super easy to handle, left one is even easier once you learn her trick but might cause a death or two if you don't, and the middle one is not an issue at all unless you mess with it too much.
Luke Anderson
Maybe I'm missing something, but why not just keep them in the healing rooms?
Ayden Walker
Old lady weapon is a godsend early, just have someone with good white damage resist if her counter goes to cero
Cameron Hughes
Yeah, that's what you end up doing anyways. Once you hit six departments and many abnormalities and tools to pick up and other shit going on and your employees are way faster because of higher Justice for everybody, it's a non-issue. I will do it if I'm bouncing an agent back and forth between abnormalities though - better to leave them in a hallway for that
Lincoln Morris
So, after the Knight tags an agent I cant order him to work directly?
Josiah Rogers
In safe times I do, when I have a new abnormality or incoming ordeal, I camp in the elevators. >when elevators had to be waited for a few seconds to be used Those were the dark ages.

She's super easy.
>If she targets an agent Move the target out of the way while someone else suppresses her. She's slow, has low HP, and will never harm anyone as long as she doesn't see her target. >if she targets a clerk Just make super your agents are out of the way when she reaches him. You can still suppress her if there's enough distance between her and the target, but clerks are retards so make sure to react quickly if he suddenly runs into the room where you're fighting her.
Angel Jones
>Just make super Just make sure*
Jack Jackson
The blessing vanishes at the end of the day, so you can really send anyone you like. So if she's in the Department that gives its captain +20% attack speed... or you could just send that captain to her
Gavin Bailey
You later get an upgrade that heals employees not inside the healing room by 50% of the room healing, more than enough to do regular abnormality work.
Daniel Stewart
Fuck, now the big robots show up right after the clowns and killed one of my main white damage dealers
Landon Lee
Ah, okay. I just unlocked timed missions and my only other option is Geburah; I'm not looking forward to letting my anomalies breach, but progress is progress.
Thomas Young
Yeah, she just killed two people in her room when I was trying to analyze her.
Alexander Richardson
You have a 5-second window to react when she "activates" which is usually more than enough to run away.

John Richardson

Jaxson Diaz

Adrian Gray
Old lady's weapons are great since they're ranged white damage, so you can actually suppress panicking employees that're running all over the place with them. That said, any ranged weapon early on is great when your employees have terrible attack speed, especially against orange dawn
Hunter Johnson
So I guess there's gonna be more Midnights if I'm to suppress mid and low levels Sephirah Meltdowns?
Aaron Myers
Should I be shuffling around my agents now and then to make sure they all get a chance to level up their skills quickly? The ones in my early departments are seriously starting to lag behind the rest since the low-level abs give much lower skill gains.
Wyatt Jones
What do you think, genius?
Brayden Davis
Absolutely, but you should also make sure to institute one super-badass to become Captain of each Department to best reap the rewards, because once somebody becomes Captain even if someone better comes in they won't drop it. And since you won't really need to move them(until you unlock the stat cap removal research) you'll have a stronger facility on the whole since you can easily pull captains away and have learning employees assist or work for various threats.
Jackson Barnes
G-G-G-GUYS?!? I THINK I NEED HELP ON THIS NEW ABNORMALITY A-
"He's an idiot, but he's too big to survive." - "I've brought you to your doom." - "Nogger a gnombling, gnelf!" - "He's an idiot, but he's too big to survive."
Anyone know if you keep core suppression buffs when you reset?
Eli Cooper
is it bad I seriously want this now
Jason Anderson
Not really. The reason why nothing there says the word manager so much is because it tries to imitate the behaivor of it's 'skin' just before it's death. Which is just agents crying out for manager to help since who else could help them in the containment chamber, all alone with nothing there? Then they die.
>worked so hard on my disciplinary guy far in the left to become my super badass, with name, best gear and justice gift. >Later on realized he didn't become captain >he was actually dead last >had to remove every employee to finally promote him to Captain. My employees probably hate me for all that nepotism.
Lincoln Martinez
nonsense, he worked hard for that promotion he was literally slaving away on abnormalities for the best shit and honing himself while they got to keep their positions the entire time they'll reestablish their pecking order eventually

Bentley Parker
Melting Love being another abnormality that worked its way up from Zayin to Aleph would've been interesting really. The backstory for it makes it fairly easy to imagine how that would've turned out. You'd just have the barrels of goop that produces a few PE boxes at first, and the more you do affection on it the stronger it no longer needs to be kept in a barrel, as a blob of semi-sentient goo as a teth, then a vaguely humanoid slime shape as a He, looking like a child-like figure as teth, and then finally, whoever it gave it's gift to from the next round moves into its chamber and merges with it to become Melting Love as an Aleph, ML permanently retaining the appearance of the employee it merged with for the rest of the game, or until a hard reset.
I dunno, it feels like it's somewhat conscious of what it's doing and why it's imitating employees in the first place, and it seems like it knows that whatever this 'manager' is all it's victims scream for is responsible for its captivity. Or, as you said, it's just parroting its victims with no real goal in mind.
Gavin Butler
How much does the middle option buff Clerks anyways? It can't be by much.
Funny thing, back then not only the -01(one with the heart) but also -02s(infected, visible goop on face) got a stat boost as well, further encouraging the spread ofthe 'gift'. It was incredibly devilish. Funny thing is a not insignificant part of fandom was annoyed at introducing a 'weeb slime waifu' into the game regardless.
prevents them from panic on all dawns but green(usually, ymmv but they started screaming way less unless shit went weird), greens will still murder and panic them because their slaughter does roomwide white they also start to fire quite fast and a row of eight clerks pounding bugs with bullets will clear orange dawns incredibly fast and you won't even need to send agents if there's enough in some places
Brandon Parker

Gavin Perry

Robert Brown
I don't think it's such a bad thing really, there's already literal magical girls in the game as abnormalities, and it's far from a cute anime waifu when it finally breaches.

Liam Ross
>closed eyes to ensure she doesn't get mindbroken Doremi is smart! SMART!
Adam Perry
>clicked the fetus without looking or reading FUCK THIS, at least I got the King of Greed, love her design
Just make sure you've got some black damage weapons (Laetitia's guns are the earliest you can get probably) to deal with her when she escapes. She's immune to red and resists white, so if you get her early on there's a big chance she'll take 0-1 damage from everything you have.
Isaiah White
Fetus is objectively the worst abnormality in the game. It literally only kills employees because the company has to sacrifice employees to it to shut it up so it doesn't cause other abnormalities to breach. It's not much better than a red dawn. Get full research and buy ego gear if you really want, then slam dunk that trash back into the memory repository where it belongs and never think about it again.
Matthew Nguyen
i've got these two right next to each other and now i'll never be able to take the mountain seriously again
Jaxson Jones
how in the FUCK do you do Malkuth's core supression when you have Alephs like Censored, Army in Black, and Nothing There in meltdown?

Cameron Gonzalez

Luke Ramirez
probably Flesh Idol notice it's just about the end of the work
William Cruz
Train ticket or some other department-wide heal, probably.
Cameron Green
I know, but it happens regardless. Being an difficult to manage ab didn't help though.
Regarding nothing there, when you read the story the line before 'and all skin cried manager' it says it always tries to imitate whatever its victim says or does before dying, so that's why I dont think it's as intelligent. Don't get me wrong, nothing there is more intelligent than it looks, but not to the point it would rival something like whitenight for example. Then again not even ingame people nor us know why it even exists(not counting the spoiler that is) so bleh
Adding on to this, later on if you have boolets to spare shielding clerks can be a viable tactic. They wont survive more dangerius ones but simply keeping them alive is useful as a meat shield at least. Oh and the more welfare clerks that survive the bigger your magazine for bullet gets and other department bonuses as well to consider. I swear nowadays when people say clerks are useless I get slightly annoyed since I cant tell if they're poking fun at their fate or if they genuinely dont know that they provide bonuses(regardless of if it is miniscule to ignore or not).
It is a good idea to drop the Life for the Dare Devil for the A Sword Sharpened by Tears? Or melee white damage is worthless? I love pale damage but white damage is more universal in terms of use

Probably the one that turns you into a foot fetishist.
I've got some safe/camera/keyhole and a gooey bloated baby with a mouth across it's stomach and they can both fuck off, they are such a hassle to research and are worse to manage than Nothing There. They have cost me far too many runs when a meltdown happens. This is a fun game btw.
I can't do it, anons. How am I supposed to beat a dusk ordeal with barely any waw equipment? I want to do it now while I still have only 5 departments to manage, and I don't want to do a reset because I'm not having any problems reaching energy quotas or dealing with the abnormalities I have.
William Lewis

Okay, at what point am I supposed to do it then? I already know about Sephirah meltdowns because everyone talks about them, so I really do want to get the missions done as fast as I can.

you have recieved a voicemail. perhaps someone that held the late agent in their heart was too slow with their confession through a communication device. Alternatively the voice of close agents which were ordered to suppress escaped nothing there and slaughtered together?
It’s mostly dread and maybe the sudden surprise of seeing your worker die violently, for example the part that most people feel the most creeped out about is the screen where you gotta pick a new monster but you only have a tiny piece of its backstory to guess what it is and what it does. There’s only one true jump scare, and even then it got nerfed into just being an audible scream (one you can see easily see coming if you did enough research)

From what I understand Nothing There knows what language is but has no clue how to actually organize a sentence, so it’s probably just parroting everything it’s ever heard Maybe it eavesdropped on a loving pair of Agents outside its room or something
Jacob Ross
Get the quicker stat increases, increased stats on hiring is really small You don't get anything real good off Hod until you beat her final mission
Jonathan Martinez
Assign a retard to him in case of meltdowns or have all your agents camp outside his containment to beat the shit out of him. Or get Red Riding Hood to hunt him down.
Alexander Thompson
Do you like the gameplay? It pretty worth having moments where multiple groups and teams of employees overcoming a somewhat overrun facility
Should I get T A L L B O I even if I have no gear to properly deal with him? I know he gives some top-tier shit, but if he breaches I might be in trouble.
Alternatively I could get frosty queen who doesn't give anything I really want, but at least I know I can handle her bullshit.
You could stop spoiling yourself, you disappointing piece of shit.
Jacob Reyes
It's not really spoiling when you already had them on a different timeline because the game just flat out tells you who you're getting.
Adrian Myers
Long Bird can fuck employees up in the Containment room but in combat he’s pretty slow, so it’s easy to kite him and then give him a wallop once he whiffs his one and only attack Obviously it’s gonna hurt if it lands, so don’t be near him when he starts to judge

What are some general good plans for departments? I've only unlocked 3 areas so far but I try to have at least 2 white weapon guys and the other 3 have at least one ranged weapon guy and base armor on who is in the area
Sebastian Powell
Don't be afraid to reset to your last memory repository after completing missions or core suppressions, you'll maintain the progress on them and get your lost employees back. You'll probably lose your ego gear but ego gear's easier to replace than experienced employees.
Justin Gonzalez
>Dont let die any employee It's honestly not bad at all. The low energy requirements mean you can still work zaiyns and teths and even then most HEs and WAWs are harmless if managed correctly. If you're really afraid then only use your high level chads to work.
I'm exactly on day 21, had to pick 2 boxes, got Laetitia and a teddy bear(?), guess fun times start now.
Eli Fisher
I think it's best for me to avoid using it then, thanks

Name one (1) abnormality that is worse than CHOO CHOO
Brody Turner
fetus
Ethan Moore
Apokalypse Bird.
Ethan Evans
Fetus Pink horse plant thing Your mom
Julian Williams
Fetus. The train is actually a benefit to the facility if you manage it properly, Fetus is just a piece of shit that eats your employees and lets all the other abnormalitieis out.
Jackson Russell
his mom is easily managed with instinct or attachment work
Connor Cook
>expect fragment to be spooky as shit when it breaks out >just makes cute noises and pokes employees
Isaac Miller
little prince is the most underrated abnormalitie Prove me wrong
Josiah Thompson
Unfortunately, doing attachment work with his mom deals massive white damage.

>cryer is such a good weapon >but the baby is just a fucking timebomb waiting to go off Where are my fucking anime girls, I cant find any.
You could probably fill the entire game just with Touhou-based abnormalities. You'll need to play up the more spooky/negative aspects of them a lot, but it's not like that's very difficult.

Does that task where I have to avoid all the deaths includes clerk deaths or not?

Carson Ramirez
I have total of 1 wav weapon and lot of white weapon on everyone and nearly no he armour 5 IV-V guys and two III Rest is level II
I think I will try it next day
Jaxson Powell
High as long as you aren't a malkuth either. Pause your fucking game. Check who scorched girl wants to aloha snackbar and either slap her shit (she's just a teth) or move all your employees away from the unlucky clerm. Butterfly man is easily smacked down, just bring strong red weapons and people who are resistant to white. Borb is a fat fuck but shouldn't be much problem if you have enough strong prople and learn to kite his nom noms. You can even ignore it if none of your employees were marked by him when he escaped.

Requesting art of a chill and unbothered lvl V employee with punishing bird stuck in their hair and struggling to get out while a lvl I looks on in absolute horror
Luis Bell
protip: you don't need to actually clear the ordeal to end the day
Lucas Martinez
wait
can melting love infect people who are one floor above/below (like welfare team)
Austin Evans
It's a bug that may happen when you restart from day 1.
Anthony Bennett
why is rabbit protocol so cool and yet so impractical
Blake Hill
I know, but is an annoyance to farm energy while moving your low level agents around so they wont get killed while you try to finish the day.
I just found out what Backward clock does and lost an employee I liked Can it contain ordeals, and would it count for Malkuth's mission? It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make at this point.
Nathaniel Hall
i had it save my ass earlier when i had a double aleph breach, so those furfags are ok in my book
Ayden Baker
it's 60 energy. set up four jobs and just ball everyone else up
Ryan Morgan
>People praise Lanklet Borb's weapon >2-4 pale dmg Wait, that's kinda shit, even at 200% weakness, you'd get max 8 dmg
It’s overkill on HE and below and isn’t worth it for like 3/4ths of the WAWs but I consider it perfectly viable to deploy them against ALEPHs Except for Mountain, like I said before, that pile of corpses is faster than the Rabbits so it’s a game of pac-man when you do it
Brayden Hernandez
it hits multiple times in one swing
Adrian Allen
by the time you unlock them you probably already have loads of WAW or a set of ALEPH gear which is better than the rabbits. the 25% cost is also pretty rough if your late in the day and it's probably just better to rush work to get the day done
Oliver Brooks
There aren't many source of Pale damage in the game.
They're pretty good at slowing down Alephs while I handle things elsewhere.
Hudson Walker
that thing fucking shreds
Landon Diaz

>he didn't see it in action bet you also shit on KoG's weapon too without ever seeing it in use
Luke Garcia
It's by far the best weapon from a normal abnormality in the game. The only things better are from the super bosses.
Zachary Edwards
It's like seeing a big dog on a leash, if you see it just standing there it's not that scary, you see someone running screaming from the direction the dog is you panic as well.
Josiah Evans
Why is the Cerumbling Armor such a nigger?

Buff makes your justice better but reduces your hp If you do attachment work the guy dies
James Peterson
Your employee's now a child of the blade user. Never forsake this path, or commit sudoku for daring to go against the path of the warrior.
Cooper Allen
>man these rabbits are really strong, I should try going for the three aleph suppressions! >several seconds later
It's an ALEPH tier pale damage weapon with a great rate of fire. Even with the lowish base damage, with all the stacked bonuses it will absolutely wipe out anything that's WAW or lower, and wallop most ALEPHs good.
>Geburah loves suppressing abnormalities >force her to suppress literally every abnormality at once
Landon Sanders
>violet noon spawns and wipes out 3 departments instantly What the fuck, do I just have to have every cower in one room together and ope it doesn't spawn on that one?
Liam Walker
They only spawn in the big rooms
Wyatt Clark
it only spawns in main rooms, it's super gimmicky and is the second easiest noon to deal with once you know how it works (the easiest being clown because you can literally just ignore it and run around). Just leave everyone in a hallway or something, wait till it spawns, and then kill it before it starts lowering qliphoth counters.
Asher Stewart
So I have to just end the day with five level five guys or do I have to kill them?
How do I beat Blue Star? Am I just forced to pump up everyone's prudence to 3?
Ryder Gonzalez
Its super easy
James Perry
deploy 5 level 5 agents
Charles Rivera
Yes you have to murder all your strongest employees. You just have to start the day with 5 level 5s. Dispatch doesn't mean kill.
Mason Russell
Is there a convenient weapon/armor tier list? Because we know the damage shown in game does not mean actual dps and there's really no way to tell which one is good without field testing.
>you will never be knight of despair's white knight filling her dark soul with light and venture forth to conquer alephs empowered by your waifu's blessing it hurts bros...

Matthew Peterson
>Fetus lmao
James Smith
>meat lantern randomly excapes >get my best employees eaten
There isn't one, but it'd be pretty easy to rank since the weapons/armors are already tiered in game (And those tiers do have an effect on damage so it's reasonable to do so).
For weapons: 1. Tier every weapon with its classified tier in game. 2. If it has pale damage, bump it up 1 tier. 3. If it's ranged, bump it up half a tier (Ex. A to A+) 4. If it has "Very short" attack range, reduce it half a tier. 5. Apoc bird and White Night's weapons are in the highest tier.
For armor: 1. Tier every armor in its respective tier in game. 2. If it has a non-pale weakness, lower it half a tier. 3. If it has weakness to red, lower it a full tier. 4. If it is strong against all non-pale elements, bump it up a tier 5. Apoc bird and White Night are in the highest tier.
These are probably good enough guidelines to give you an idea for everything.
Carson Diaz
Look at this fucking brainlet, who doesn't account for obvious aspects, and despair.
Julian Davis
>3. If it has weakness to red, lower it a full tier. Is red resistance really that important?
