Spiral Abyss 12-3 3 stars: video, gear and tips

By

Dear diary, today I want to share some details I consider useful for attempting to clear the hardest Spiral Abyss chamber.

Konagi-chan wants to warn that while these tips might apply to most travelers they should not be followed blindly, especially by travelers who never wishes or those who do so a bit too much.

The basics:
- Reaching Adventure Rank 50 - World Level 7 is recommended.
- Of course, you need a team you're confident with. The third chamber of the twelfth floor is tough.
- It is recommended to have well geared sub-dps and support characters.
- It might be necessary to cherry-pick good benediction buffs.
- As a metric, aim to clear the first half within 1 minute and 40 seconds or less (at least 8:20 remaining).
- It is recommended to have the strongest team take the second half as it spawns more enemies.
- Try to manage the enemy movements for better grouping. This will require a lot of practice.

General tricks:
- Certain heavy attacks or elemental reactions if timed correctly can delay or completely prevent the enemies from acquiring elemental shields.
- On the first half the Ice Cage enemy aura will trigger each ~12.5 seconds while the Fatui Cryogunner is alive. Pay attention to the clock and watch out for the Ice Cage on the times: 9:47, 9:34, 9:21, 9:09, 8:56, 8:44 and 8:30, once the Fatui Cryogunner dies the Ice Cage will no longer spawn.
- On the second half Stalactites will fall on areas marked with a circle on the floor, taking advantage of shields, skills or effects that increases interruption resistance along with also performing attacks with interruption resistance - such as charged attacks - will allow you to ignore them when it isn't possible to dodge in time.

Team tips:
- It is not necessary to have two Pyro dps characters, although they will make a big difference on the second half.
- It is recommended to have a Cryo character on the first half. While one can also be useful for the second half it is not strictly needed as you don't have to burst or CC two electro Fatui Skirmishers in a quick succession.
- Electro elemental reactions can slightly damage Cryo elemental shields which can be useful for AoE attacks.
- The electro-charged reaction can slightly stagger enemies, it also allows juggling enemies in the air with ranged elemental applications.
- The overloaded reaction, if timed correctly, can prevent enemies from acquiring elemental shields by interrupting their animations with the AoE explosion.

Character specific tips:
- Diona's Cryo charged aimed shots are useful for breaking already damaged Electro elemental shields.
- The Fatui Anemoboxer can pull Klee's mines. This allows a big Pyro AoE burst with some setup and baiting the Anemoboxer Vanguard to explode them near another enemy, greatly damaging both of them.

Here's a demonstration:


0:00 - First half
1:40 - Second half
3:14 - Characters, weapons and artifacts

The characters, weapons and artifacts section was added to allow travelers to compare progression and to help planning how to invest in each character.

This ends my travel diary entry for today.
I hope today's notes will be useful for future travelers.

Konagi-chan took about 3 hours to finally record a perfect attempt.

Dodge Fatui Anemoboxer punch without using Stamina

Dear diary, today I want to share how to dodge Fatui Anemoboxer's punch without consuming stamina. In short: - When the Fatui Anemoboxer starts lifting its arm in preparation for the charged punch, walk towards its side to avoid the attack, you can walk either to the left or to the right. - This works regardless of the element the Fatui Anemoboxer has absorbed. - This works even under Condensed Ice slow effects such as the one from 12th Spiral Abyss floor. - This might require some practice to use in combat. Here's a demonstration: And a slowed down version to compare frames: This ends my travel diary entry for today. I hope today's notes will be useful for future travelers.

Min-max Spiral Abyss floor benediction buffs by progressing over multiple days

By
Image
Dear diary, today I want to share how to ensure you have the best benediction buffs for the 3rd chamber during Spiral Abyss challenges. Konagi-chan finally completed all 9-12 Spiral Abyss floors with 36 stars and getting the best possible buffs greatly helped. On 12-3 having perfect buffs decreased clear time by at least 40 seconds. First you need to: - Complete all previous Spiral Abyss floors you can. - Upgrade and/or equip all characters, artifacts and weapons you're going to use for the third chamber. This is required because once you start accumulating the desired floor buffs you can't change your team nor the character, weapon or artifacts state. Restarting will require you to lose the already accumulated buffs. Then: - Enter the desired Spiral Abyss floor with the teams you intend to use for the last chamber. - Check if the floor buff on the first chamber is a desired one. --- If not: Leave and check the new floor buff after the daily reset. --- If yes: Clear the chamber

Dodge fire ball AoE (Spiral Abyss)

Dear diary, today I want to share how to dodge the fire ball AoE while attempting to clear Spiral Abyss. In short: You have to dodge when the fire ball is very close and collide with it during the initial i-frames and then get outside of its AoE explosion range as fast as possible. Here's a demonstration: Here's a slow motion of the first part  0:03 : Here's a slow motion of the second part  0:06 : When attempting this try to dash towards the fire ball when it's about to hit the character. If you miss the timing you might get hit by its initial attack or sphere AoE. If you miss the direction the fire ball will make a curve and throw off your timing. This might require some practice to manage consistently. This ends my travel diary entry for today. I hope today's notes will be useful for future travelers.
