I am committed to 101 until Karnage is 6 star. After that, we will see what we see.

I am not a fan of the stun set nonsense, but I don't see another way to beat the Taras/Marichka wave with most of the restrictions for S19.

This rotation is pretty easy.  Fairly certain I one shot marichka with fayne.  Take her out and rest of s19 could probably auto.  I know I manual just so it's 1 go and done and can swap gear back immediately.

Depends on your champ pool as always.  High level blessings and area bonuses are a big deal as well.  I one shot her every rotation so how to deal with the Taras depends.

Hmm.  Attempting to one-shot the Marichka never even occurred to me. Maybe I'll try that next rotation.

Okay.  My Fayne is +4, 3 star awakened.  I built her in Lethal with 7800 Atk & 249% CD and she can't one-shot the Marichka.

What kind of gear are you two using to make this one-shot?

249 is pretty low. Mine is almost 230 cd with accessories only 😆

I bumped her to 275% after posting.       

You are 5 star awakened (30%) with Merciless Accessories (67%) on her.

I assume then, that you are using 9 pcs Merciless?

I thought the same thing, but By the time I got it, I had teams and gear presets set up that I can full auto almost everything, and manual only 1-2 stages per rotation, so I still full-clear it every time anyway

Correct.  I swap either dahti or thor merciless gear. Probably around 350

Morag my big gun nut 6* soul for her carries hard.  Also agree it's an easier one with Gnarl and Melga doing some heavy lifting.

Generally its the easiest method for that stage.

I'm 2 and 4.  Definitely just a gear swap stage.  Shouldn't mercurial make most of these trivial? Non merc user 😆  here

If one-shotting Marichka turns out to be viable, and I need to rely less on stun set rng, I'll be more inclined to finish even after Karnage is 6 starred. Wasting an hour on reruns is not my idea of fun. That's why I always put it off until the last couple of days, and sometimes don't bother with it at all.

So had to finish off marichka with melga a1 then hit auto.  The AI is horrendous and other champs mid gear (except rockbreaker borrows) with no masteries at all.
