4 Operators Are All You Need (D15 Relicless 4op)

D15 Relicless done with only Kal'tsit + Pozemka + Mlynar + Texas2. I believe this is the "no Ling" low op record; the "with Ling" low op record is with 3 operators.
I'm a little disappointed I didn't get Out of Control with this run, since this team would have survived Out of Control, although I suppose I did have the option to route into it.

Wow that's crazy.
Nice run!

[@M.Ridhwan.A]

Good job for completing that 👍
I don't have 3 of them😅

[@pekoV]

yo this is sick, didnt think it cld be done w so little ops AND relicless, good job! was this run quite rng? were there some stages you hoped to avoid? also, i saw that with ling, it could be 3 ops, who wld they be lol

[@oltammefru]

The RNG was somewhat less bad than it probably looks, this ended up taking about 15 hours worth of attempts (although I had quite a bit of experience with generalish D15 Relicless runs beforehand), and I think if I were to redo this with the knowledge/experience I have now, I'd probably expect it to take somewhere between 5-8 hours. I get a really lucky early game in this run, and while I do need to get lucky early game to win, it doesn't have to be quite *that* good. (Funnily enough, the first attempt I did of this, I had a run that was good enough that it reasonably should have won, but I wasn't very experienced at doing this specific challenge so I ended up choking it at the end, and didn't get another run good enough for a decently long time.)
I believe Ling 3 Op (at least the only one I know of) is Ling/Texalter/Rosa, but I'd suspect that there's probably a few other similar team compositions that also work (for instance, swap Rosa out with Pozy).
At the time I did this, there weren't really any stages that needed to be avoided as long as I had good voucher luck, the main ones were just the harder F5 emergencies (even OOC is ideally like, 7 leaks max with this team, which is mostly fine, since almost all the other stages are pretty consistently 0-1 leaks.) Both the post-expansion F3 and F5 stages are pretty bad though.

You OP brooooo!!!, i try this last night i failed horrible 😂😂😂

New power creep typhon and degenbrecher are also coming

[@oltammefru]

both Typhon and Degenbrecher are really strong, but I don't really see either of them being that useful in this sort of run. Every operator I do take is incredibly good in terms of role compression. Kal'tsit role compresses healer (people joke about her being a bad healer, but she has 500+ HP/s with S2 up and 71% uptime on S2), laneholder and fast redeploy, Mlynar has both obscene DPS and taunt utility, Pozy has good ranged tile DPS and global presence with typewriter, and Texas has both pretty good damage (even if it falls off a bit on later floors), CC and global presence. in contrast, degenbrecher and typhon mostly seem like "does 1 big thing and does it really really well" operators, which are good in most runs, but likely somewhat less useful in specifically low op IS3 runs.

@@oltammefru
Kal’tist is a good healer.
The main problem with her is that she is also a selfish healer.
Get her into any situation where she or Mon3tr receive continuous damage and no one else is getting healed.

[@rodrigolopez5381]

Out of curiosity, is there any chance you could do one of these for the newest ending?
Please! hahaha

[@oltammefru]

I'm not going to lie, I'm kind of extremely uninterested in 4th Ending to the point where I don't know if I'm ever going to even do it. If I suddenly feel like it, I can post something but it's probably not that likely to happen.

That’s fully fine, don’t worry about it, thank you for replying back nonetheless!

[@connorbabylon5957]

15? Impressive

[@theblackrockwolf3543]

Why did your medic start as a E2?

[@hashise]

Chose the medic/caster perk. They're auto promoted to E2 when recruited.

[@oltammefru]

yeah that, I didn't realize I wasn't recording until after I had picked Kal'tsit so that part is cut out from the video. (I also took the +2 hope floor 3 starting perk, also not in the video.)

[@Haru-qg9dp]

Wtf

[@NeostormXLMAX]

Whats surprising? Those 4 are op as fuck

[@ggok]

​@@NeostormXLMAX I haven't beat ascension 15 normally even with those ops lmao (although I don't have pozy), currently at ascension 14 atm

[@maxxam012]

@@ggok It does also require a good line of nodes and battles, to be fair.

​@@maxxam012 one must imagine the rng grinder happy

Nice Run but IT wasn't relicless ^^'

[@ceferion5]

true relicless would be impossible because of the wish fulfilled nodes so they had to choose relics that wouldn't benefit the run
