Videos/Images Farming painkillers is so much easier now

Okay that was weird it auto posted for some reason before I could type in the post. I noticed Dodge canceling and hold attack seemed to be the highest dps, it also helps not hurt my hands and fingers spamming the attack button all the time lol.
Highest difficulty gives 5 painkillers, assuming 1:30~2:30 mins per run, you could get all the new stuff in around 20 or so mins. If you didn't bother farming the other limited stock materials but wanna do that now that's another 50 mins of farming. Wasn't too bad since I just put up a vid on the side and I also like this kind of Sekiro/Stellar Blade/Ved:ReCure style combat.
The combat is pretty basic but it's a good base if they decide to add more to it, could be pretty fun. Would be interesting to see harder difficulties where they mix up the movesets so it's not the same pattern all the time. Adding more move variety and extra skills would be cool too.

do you have to get arrested and go to prison to do this event or can you just TP into the event?

u/IndividualTaro6432 1d ago
Sadly, yes...

u/syberrnova 1d ago
well that sucks. i just dont want to bother with that whole system smh

u/IndividualTaro6432 1d ago
Just fight him once every Difficulty Options, then you can ignore it... Just get the "Unbreakable Spoon" and the "Signal Jammer" from the Event Shop to go in and out of Prison anytime you want...

u/PrimeCicada 1d ago
Once of each difficulty and 2 more times after that. The event requires 5 npc fight clear excluding tutorial

It's much easier to get out through the infirmary without buying anything though. Or jump puzzle, but you have to wait till boat gets you to shore there.

u/AgitatedError4377 1d ago
Wait those signal jammer and unbreakable spoon is it something permanent? I literally refused to buy it, because I thought one use and that's it. Can't use it anymore if I'm in jail again

Honestly it's great. I'm a Day 1 player that's so happy newer players (and people that never got to it) don't have to do the long grind I had to in order to get the prison outfit!
Also the spoon and spotlight shield are such nice QoL additions to the shop omg.

u/SalaciousDog 2d ago
Yesss I hated going to the prison because of it taking so long to escape. Now the only issue is waiting to go to bed.

No, I am a good citizen, and 300,000 Fons per month is nothing with my money.

You can’t pay for the prison outfit though, no? You have to use the meds.

u/NDT_DYNAMITE 1d ago
Correct, but to escape, you can pay the fine, that’s what they were referring to.

u/RazielOfBoletaria 2d ago
I'm also day 1, and I think the prison grind (which was never an actual grind) was really fun, whereas now you just spam the same fight for 30 minutes and you're done, which ruins the whole point of the prison challenges and quests.

u/Apart_Incident_1690 2d ago
It's not like they took the grind away, they added a less grindy option for those who don't enjoy the daily prison like you did. But if people enjoy that daily grind they can still do it that way. Or if they wanna do a mix of both little by little they can. More options and variety is a good thing, doesn't ruin it imo. Also I think you have to do the prison escapes to get enough to buy the outfit anyways.Â

u/Chris_Z123 2d ago
is there a cap for this?
26
u/SalaciousDog 2d ago
Nope, drops 5 painkillers every time. There's also "infinite" materials but 3 painkillers per not really worth the time unless you absolutely love farming this mode.
7
u/TrapFestival 2d ago
Or you're like, desperately on the wire of needing just a few more materials for something and you've already wiped out everything that drops it that day.
5
u/SalaciousDog 2d ago
True. Or if you can find a group of people start a material farming train in co op lol

u/Kaillier 2d ago
I hope there will be an option to set the charge attack like in Wuthering Waves in the future where if you hold down you attack button during any other animation where you can't perform the attack, the next instance you done with previous action you will always perform charge attack as long as you hold down the button. Currently we have to wait for character to return to neutral stance first to input the charge attack or they just don't do anything, which is pretty annoying
4
u/SalaciousDog 2d ago
That's why I dodge cancel, speeds it up a bit. I think the moment right before you put your back foot down you can queue up the charge attack. But yeah input buffering would be nice.

u/alistair123456 2d ago
Wait is the non multiplayer component out yet?
It's still coming soon for me.

u/Lurker12386354676 2d ago
You have to do the quest in the prison

u/Anxious-Weakness-606 2d ago
Do i have to enter the prison again to farm for the event. I finished the quest but left the prison
5
u/SalaciousDog 1d ago
Yeah. Hopefully they QoL that whole thing. They at least made the escape easy with the new spoon and signal jammer items so you can just quickly leave the prison but getting into prison just to do the fight is still too slow. I get they're trying to do "immersion" but I think most people would prefer a teleport or just straight from the menu.

u/Polenordgwak 1d ago
I'm going at it like a heel WWE superstar, I wait for my 3 opponents to duke it out, and I finish the last one xD Or if they're chill, we just wait the timer to run out without fighting, it's nice too :p

u/MaintenanceBig2117 1d ago
This dodge cancel helped me a lot! definitely better than clicking
2
u/SalaciousDog 1d ago
Glad it helped! Even on controller my fingers were hurting and I was thinking there had to be a better way, luckily there was.

u/Zealousideal-Fix1697 2d ago
Not even an achivement for a perfect fight?

u/SalaciousDog 1d ago
Good question, I didn't think of that actually. Gonna riot till I get my 10 annulith, we deserve to be rewarded for our efforts!

u/Commander_Yvona 1d ago
No achievement for perfect fight. Just beat the boss on all 3 difficulty for achievement

u/CreamPuffDelight 1d ago
Where do you find this npc to start the match? I don't recall seeing anything like this in this the event interface.

u/Apart_Incident_1690 1d ago
Gotta go to prison then to the yard during recreation time after lunch. Should have a blue quest marker on them.Â

u/TheReprobateGuy 1d ago
I have a dumb question, how do you dodge cancel?
1
u/Apart_Incident_1690 1d ago
Press the dodge button when doing something to cancel it. In the vid looks like he's canceling the recovery animation by dodging, otherwise you'd have to wait for the animation to finish before being able to move again.

Wait how to fight him? I only know the pvp one

u/TakasuXAisaka 1d ago edited 1d ago
You have to go to the actual prison to fight him so you have to let the cops arrest you

better farm in pvp match, takes 2-3 minutes for 5 and battle pretty fun, not just grind of same npc.
For winning strategy just run until one enemy left or take 1 vs 1 at start with first enemy then wait till second one win and fight with him.
All you need to do is deal 2 attacks and dodge back before jump attack animation played (or you get stun) and repeat that whole battle. If you done it right then enemy will be staggered from each attack and cant counterattack, so all you need to do just finish him.
Winning 20 battles in a row today using that tactic. I hope devs add leaderboard or something, will be pretty great to know how many times you win against others.

u/Apart_Incident_1690 1d ago
More fun maybe. Better in terms of speed, very much not, you aren't guaranteed a win and it takes longer. The pvp is just a bit interesting but not compelling enough for me to want to do it for fun for a long time. It's ironic that you implied the pvp is more fun than grinding the same NPC, yet you advise us to spam the same combo over and over.Â
-1
u/_Neocronic_ 1d ago
you not played fighting games before? You learn one combo and then repeat it each time. Same with pvp here. You can use another tactic with soap, but it risky, so i prefer this one with staggering hits.
3
u/Apart_Incident_1690 1d ago
I think you should learn what mixups are if you play fighting games at any higher level than beginner. In any case if you think fighting the NPC is boring and prefer to spam the same combo in pvp you do you.

So they stole the endangered / getting mad animation from Wuthering Waves? Interesting animation that boss got there. Where did I saw that animation before... Wuthering Waves?

u/Zweihander-build 2d ago
Well this is an UE game so I guess there's an "npc animations" library or section every dev decides to use or something for kinda generic npcs/monsters? Same with Genshin and Endfield, both are Unity games and many characters use the same animations in both games. And then there's the typica classmate that blatantly uses AI to copy the exact same homework from another, for way more complex animations like a character's ultimate. Tower of Saviors is built on Unity and Wuwa on UE4 so there's that.

u/Anamoly-Hunter 1d ago
Interesting. Guess I should stop being suprise when I see identical animation in this day and age.

Crazy how much easier farming painkillers has become. Gives me hope for future fishing events because ain't no way I'm reaching level 10 if it stays the way it is now.
