Update: Small mistake at 15:15 "able to do single-target physical damage" should be "able to do aoe physical damage". Skill cooldown of Vermeil S2 with SP regen is 15.4s while skill cooldown of Executor S2 with Ptilopsis is 53.8s Sorry about that! A huge thanks to Zulul Warrior Mbeke for lending me his account so I can record footage of Magallan. Here's a link to his channel th-cam.com/channels/DTMMH4h6NTSj8RZfVOOrVg.html Some added disclaimer, I only had roughly 2-3 hours of experience on using an E2 Magallan. I did use her to clear H6-4 which I used as the background video. She definitely deserves a solo guide in the future but for now, I need more actual experience. *Timestamps:* 00:20 Flamebringer 04:46 Vermeil 07:22 Executor 10:28 Magallan 11:32 Summoner Mechanics 16:33 General Tips for Magallan Creating guides requires resources, time and effort.

You forgot to list SP charge synergies for Flamebringer, I think? Warfarin is a triple because her talent charges his s2 faster, Liskarm and Chen, Saria... I'd probably use Warfarin myself, maybe Liskarm to catch enemies he leaks while charging his SP quickly. I do wish he could have some buffs though. Especially to S1 and to his base attack speed.
As mentioned he does great on annihilation because he can kill a bunch of basic enemies to build hp and charge his s2. Anywhere that gives him enough windup to charge s2 he does great, the problem is there are not many places that offer enough weak enemies before the powerhouses appear.
Kinda sad with Flamebringer when i was look up his skill back then. He has awesome art & design, one of the most popular VA, cool animation. I may e2 him in the future just for the art.
I'm E2ing Executor mostly for husbando reasons, but dam he does pack a punch! Thank you for the guide Dreamy ♡ as usual the level of care and detail is astounding. I hope I'll be able to better support the channel in the future
I would love a Magallan/Mayer due video! But a solo Magallan video is just as good, whichever you choose to make is find by me. I didn't even get her but I love seeing all the neat things you can do with her by herself or her and Mayer teamed up.
I actually wanted to get Executor at first when they announced him on the Facebook page not because he's a good op (which I didn't know by that time), but because he's using a *shotgun.* Shotguns are just awesome, especially when they blast people in their face. Doom Eternal just got released and I had to put my shotgun-terone levels somewhere since I don't have a PC. Arknights made it possible.
The Double Summoner setup is both the most expensive version (the only setup where maxing both is truly mandatory, otherwise Magallan can still be pretty insanely good at lower levels) and the hardest. But with enough drill plans, (almost) any doktah can win with the robot army! (Worth it even if it took me sixty of the damn things to set up SW-EV-5 with E1 Mag before the event disappeared...) That and using one of them with three or four normal operators is pretty easy and works fine at E2 50.
Another very useful operators guide with very much details and explanation, especially for Magallan since she packs A LOT of stuff in her kit. Thank you for the information and looking forward for further uploads! ^^
Thats basically sums up mine earlier comment. Magallan is so insanely badass plus can fit to any team assuming you have 2 Vanguards, which you can replace with drones. I already E2ed Executor just after seeing that he hits like truck and can be a good upgrade over Gitano that can do exactly the same thing, but better damage-wise. I hope ill get lucky to get Magallan within 2weeks currency and month tickets/orundum from green certificates. P.S. Thanks a lot, Dreamy, i appreciate your efforts!
One thing I need to express is that the case of E2 Ptilopsis. Her talent says +0.3 sp per second. So I think it reads 1 - (1/1.3) = ~23.1% of cooldown reduction.
Hope you're keeping safe! Thanks for this video! Although I Mayer and just got Magallan, I was so lost on how to use them. Still am but now a little less. Thank you for your informative and well put videos as usual!
Keep up the awesome work, thx for the info! The first time I saw him, I immediately check his skills and realized that they weren't great so that's when you come in, I hoped thought my hunch was wrong but I guess it was right. You confirmed and show the statistics of this unit. It sucks though because he looks awesome!
I would definitely be interested in a solo guide on using Magallan. Was lucky enough to pull her yet in a few summons but not skilled enough to use her that well at the moment. Thanks for the vid!
Well,in flamebringer case,it's more of the dev's fault. I mean,even a moron like me can tell from a glance that his skills and his archtype will mess up each othet.
Thanks for the video, been waiting for it. Sad to hear that Flamebringer isn't a straight upgrade for Melantha, but certainly more than happy to hear the opinion on Vermeil and Executor. Looking forward to your future videos!
Thanks for your videos, I wish I found you earlier! I can't get myself into theorycrafting so I deeply appreciate people that do it and can explain it enough for a casual gamer like me to understand. Definitely subscribing!!
Amazing video and guide as always, Dreamy! Didn't know that even Meteor was also an underperforming 4* Sniper. You learn something new everyday, I guess. :nice:
Nah, just think hard for yourself on how to make him work. Mine is chilling on e1 60 with 120% trust. I'll prolly m3 his skill 2 and pair him with sp batteries so he becomes an unstoppable god after only 30 ish hits
Also, Meteor is more like Snipee-Support because she can debuff-ing enemies and help allie to destroy them easier Well, she's not too good for main sniper but as secondary sniper, worth
That's a shame to hear about Flamebringer. He has such a nice design and his story is pretty interesting. I'll probably find ways to use him, but still. As for the others, I want to summon but I know that Hellagur and Schwartz banners are just looming in the shadows now.
So this is what I got in 3 pulls..basically draining ALL my luck.. I read Magallan skills and I suspected she needs to be E2 to be useful...this video proved it..dang I don't even have any E2 yet..closest ones are Skadi (E1 lvl65) and Chen (E1 lvl60) T_T Too bad I'm just casual in AK so I'll definitely look forward for the guide about Magallan-Mayer duo. I got Mayer in the guarantee pull of Silverash banner... On the bright side though that information on Vermeil basically told me.i got what I needed..I'm still using Jessica and Meteor as my rapid fire folks (my main snipers happened to be Meteorite and Shirayuki which are both AoE)...at least now their roster has a great addition... Your guides never cease to amaze Dreamy!! Please make the Magallan-Mayer guide soon UwU
hey now, meteor and Jessica have lots of utility, they might not brute force stuff through cheer dps like the most popular snipers but their skills can make several situations viable. for instance Jessica's smokescreen allow her to defend the bottom lane against the big laser drone on annihilation 3 by herself, meteor's S1 at high level pretty much allows for a permanent debuff which helps a physical duelist be able to 1v1 a high armor unit more easily
I'm disappointed you didn't play "angel with a shotgun" during Executor's introduction, or put it as the "subtitle" (laughs). Missed opportunity. Otherwise, good video as always. I want Executor for husbando reasons (he's exactly my type), offered a drawing to gacha, and got him as my guaranteed 5* (the offering worked!). I was so ready to whale for him, but I'm so glad I don't have to. I'm happy to have him in my hands. I instantly E2 him as I've gathered materials for him beforehand (I didn't even think what would happen if I didn't get him lmao). I heard he's good, but I didn't know he's THAT good. I'm proud of him, just like Silverdaddy. Too bad Flamebringer is not recommended, but I'll still E2 him for that art. I feel like he deserves justice...he's an interesting operator to use if only his other functions work well together. Still, he has an intriguing story and dynamics with other characters, so he's still a fun operator to explore in the story.
I d love to see a Oni guide. Also interesting regarding the performance of the other 4* snipers. I didn t built up Jessica but I used Meteoras 2nd after Kross and I felt her armor break and her + dmg against drones comes in handy (or just makes her usable). It just saved me in Anni 3 again and again when the last shot kileld the damend drone before it leaked.
I agree. I feel like Meteor is overlooked too often. Her only weakness is low personal DPS against anything that isn't drones. But she increase the rest of the teams DPS. Also she synergizes well with SP batteries.
Another tip for magallan is to time and aggro switch with the drone against enemy ranged unit (calculate the unit's path and the drone invincible duration so that once the first drone is almost destroyed the second drone in range is revealed, switching the aggro and so on)
Another tip: it is important for choosing Magallan's starting place so that her slow can works in tandem with the freeze drone. Remember that she also gets a huge atk boost when using the skill.
The high ATKSPD is just an innate stat from her archetype. Rapid fire snipers has the fastest ATKSPD if compared to other sniper archetypes is what I meant.
Weaboo Heaven his DPS pretty much shred any enemy with Low armor. Too much, he got a lot of synergy with Pramanix and Sora, two Operator that I also have. What would happen if he get buffed? He outperform Skyfire by a mile in that condition.
"Meteor and Jessica unederperforming" Well about that i kinda disagree, since Meteor's niche is her really great anti air capabilities and Jessica has better single target dmg and survivability then Vermeil who can be used to clear a lot of weak mobs sure but can't deal with anything even remotely armored unlike Jessica and Meteor who can at least wear down certain portions of armored enemies. Vermeil brings more AOE into the table but she can't hope to outdps Jessica or Out perform Meteor in Anti air. They all have their niche and are useful in their own game.
Well but then kross is still a better single target than both Jess and meteor. Jessica has survival going for her and meteor has got def reduction. Both are not unusable by any means. But they're still more niche than vermiel and her ability to target 2 at a time
@@vaibhavdabwalv1 Sure m8 until you realise that Chapter 5 is drone heavy and Meteor hits them like a truck. I wouldn't have cleared annihilation 3 if I used either my e1 50 vermeil or e1 50 jessica, or even my e1 55 kroos because they just suck ass at dealing with drones. And to follow on that, try sw-ev-5 and see if Kroos can solo kill the drones before they start moving. Mf Meteor's armor reduction cuts their hp nicely while Kroos just tickle their armour
Nice content...but pls do base buff combo guide...idk how to pair ops in base except lapp,exu,texas and cuora,noir,vermeil...that i know from you in this video...
I got a Magallan today from her 2nd Rate Up banner and I have mixed feelings. She's kinda the big brain type of operator with the drones positioning, I dunno if I will be able to use her properly instead of simply using my usual team. She cute af though 🐧😍
It hurts to watch this after I E2 Flamebringer earlier this morning, I knew something is wrong with his skill set when it isn't clear to me what role he's supposed to fulfill after doing some test runs. I don't regret it since he looks really cool with his E2 art.
We need numbers on the drone's stats because that's not only unlisted on the aceship but confusing for common players like us to consider the cost/skill management. Also, some still wonders that the drone's stats are affected by the operators level despite it isn't the case.
Ah... We humans... I already have Magallan + Mayer (And having tons of fun just at S1), but now I want third daddy (SA & Matterhorn are first) I'll pull a little again so at least the 4* can help me a little, I blame your good guides for any 3* that I might get (Or bless for any 5/6*) Pdta: Building Flame cause I want variety of duelist, not just Melantha / Skadi
Thank god you uploaded this guide,i got magallan awhile ago and i dont know what to do to her cus i rarely use summoner OP. Thank you dreamy for uploading this guide 😭
Meteor is definitely good at aerial enemies but still not worth building if only for that reason when other rapid-fire snipers can handle both aerial and ground enemies. Like Vermeil for example.
@@LisaraScarlet That's fair, but recommending Vermeil to people is bad advice. If you have Exu/BP (or obtain them later on), Vermeil is useless. Meteor on the other hand, outperforms both of them against drones, especially ones with armor, and has become a valuable member of my roster. You could at least do some comparisons in your video to prove that Vermeil is good, instead of "yeah, those two are bad, just take my word for it".
Hello im meteor user too i e2 her cuz i dont have BP or Exu and i dont regret it! She carry me killing the drones at Anni 3 meanwhile my friend that having exu and bp still have 1 or 2 drones pass by The tip is i use e2 chen so meteor S1 will charge like crazy
@@LisaraScarlet Yeah, gotta disagree with you there Dreamy. Meteor can kill frost drones and arts masters; she's bad as your primary sniper absolutely, but when you bring two snipers its to kill drones and Meteor is the best at that no question.
12:20 you said "summons stats are based on the summoner's levels....." Does this also apply to Silence's drone and Nightingale's Phantom, and other summons?
Dreamer I really like the Operator's Guide videos, they are very explanatory and mainly accurate, which is beautiful. However, there are many other operators that, unfortunately, little is said about, and here is my suggestion: why don't you make a video to talk more about recruiting operators like Indra, for example? a hug and ty. Good job.
Great video, as always, atm you are my favorite youtuber arknights-wise. Keep on the good work. I would like to ask two questions: When do you think is Nian coming to EN server (and if I should save orundum since I WANT her.)? How is called the music that plays after the "Dreamy" appears on screen at the start of the video? The one that feels like It's from a lounge bar.
Mr Blood They *do* have rank up/retrofit, which is what elite promotion is in the first place I think you mean something like direct buff/overhaul for the Operators
@@sabrinnur3499 That's right, direct buff. Promotion is basically Ascension(FGO)/Limit Break(AL), so it's different. Certain underpowered ships in AL got retrofit after a while like Warspite or Sandy.
Mr Blood Weren't Max Potential is closer to LB instead of Promotion? Direct buffs I guess is like the devs themselves readjusted the OPs i.e. fixing their ATK if it's underwhelming for their rarity or something I know AL devs have been changing some of the shipgirls' skill occasionally... for better or worse Admittedly it's not quite extreme or downright turned them OP/trash overnight, but still...
Unless they pulled an FGO and give elite 3 or something... I don't know if they're going to pull it considering the game was released a year ago on CN (and 2-3 months on other servers), so even if they have that idea, they probably would still save it for later chapters
Me watches this video decides I'm going to do a few pulls of this banner to at least attempt to get the guaranteed 5 star. 2 pulls in and i get Magallan... 40 pulls on Chen banner fucking 0 banner units 2 on this gets me Magallan rng gods why do you do this to me...
Before I watch, I'm gonna just say I better hear some good things about little SP Battery Vermeil over there. Although, if you use Ptilopsis like a sane man, I can relate to not using her.
Got Executor a few days ago, built him up to E1 cause I thought his kit looked interesting. I took him to a stage with a lot of enemies coming up at once and he just...DELETED them, two shots and they were gone. Working on E2 him soon cause, shit, 160 defense pierce? Yes please.
You're not alone, others have commented this as well. And all of you are not wrong either, my intro is indeed the first 4 keys of Crossing Field. Good ears!
Hello! I didn't know the 4* was that good. I didn't plan to invest in her since I already have Exusiai E2 and Jessica and Kroos at E1 lvl max, but I will when I have some spare mats. The double targeting could be handy in drone maps I guess. You mentioned Matoimaru when talking about Flamebringer. Is Matoimaru worth leveling? I use Melantha but would like to have another option when it comes to duelists. Keep your good work up and take care!
If you have complete collection for that symbol, the symbol will change color. For example if you have Skadi and Specter, the octopus symbol will become blue.
Hey a quick question on magallan drone, when deploying them will it cancel out how enemy always target the last operator deployed since they cannot be targeted due to the 20 seconds of invincibility?
@@jisheg I actually got silverash, saria, and angelina. But i'm kinda interested with magallan and mayer combo. I might not be able to get magallan again because of F2P
is it redundant to gacha for Executor when i have E2 Provence? Or is Provence completely outclassed by Executor, therefore i gotta spent my orundum for him?
Executor and provence is differrent, Provance focus on 1 enemy while Executor focus on all enemies in range. it's really up to you if you want to summon but you don't really need to, i personally think Executor is better because he can be used in alot of stages efficiently.
@@vietnamabc2290 somehow I don't get the notification, I'm sorry for late responding to your comment. So Provence still better for bossing/focus firing single target then, noted. Thanks!
@@ShiroAos I thought executor also the most proficient sniper for killing boss, if Provence is not outclasses on killing bosses then I don't care about Executor that much Thanks!

Skill cooldown of Vermeil S2 with SP regen is 15.4s while skill cooldown of Executor S2 with Ptilopsis is 53.8s Sorry about that!

if ever you need a M3 Magallan S3 I'm just on your support list. as well as Mayer M3 S2 ;)
10:02 Ptilo makes him regen 1.3 sp per second, so 70 sp would take almost 54 seconds rather than 49
Ah, thank you for the correction!
You forgot to list SP charge synergies for Flamebringer, I think?

@Dreamy At 8:36 you also listed Eyja's S1 and S2, when I feel you probably meant S2 and S3, just a heads up.
ah, Flamebringer; poorly designed skills for such a handsome edgelord, i curse the devs everyday for this injustice.
But still tho, i'll E2 him.
Yes ;(
To me, fixing his passive would be enough ;(
But his E2 skill is useful and strong and last for the whole stage once activated but need a longer time.
As mentioned he does great on annihilation because he can kill a bunch of basic enemies to build hp and charge his s2. Anywhere that gives him enough windup to charge s2 he does great, the problem is there are not many places that offer enough weak enemies before the powerhouses appear.
need now plssssssssss
*me pulling out Silence out on the banner but still watching the vid cuz Ik one day i’ll get executor or magallan*
do ur best buddy, im sure u will get them both
Kinda sad with Flamebringer when i was look up his skill back then. He has awesome art & design, one of the most popular VA, cool animation. I may e2 him in the future just for the art.
No be sad . Now with module lvl 3 and E2 80lvl he can reach 7.1k HP
Insane monster .... And with module he doesn't need to kill enemy by himself)))
I'm E2ing Executor mostly for husbando reasons, but dam he does pack a punch!
Thank you for the guide Dreamy ♡ as usual the level of care and detail is astounding.
I hope I'll be able to better support the channel in the future
Well yeah flamebringer is bad, but will that stop me makin the horrible decision to e2 him? Nope :D

is this real life, dreamy just said building a certain operator is not recommended.
:surprisedpikachuface:
Well,in flamebringer case,it's more of the dev's fault.
I mean,even a moron like me can tell from a glance that his skills and his archtype will mess up each othet.
Maybe the only reason you want to build for him probably for his base skill (largest skill summaries byproduct) but then again, it can be farmed.
Thanks for the video, been waiting for it. Sad to hear that Flamebringer isn't a straight upgrade for Melantha, but certainly more than happy to hear the opinion on Vermeil and Executor. Looking forward to your future videos!
thanks for the great guide as always!!
Nice New Operator guide, let watch this
*Remember tot getting anyone out of them even pull x10 on new banner, damn you silence*
I neither got silence nor executor.
but I got franka dupli which mean rate up is a lie.
@Hanif Muhammad i dont mind no magallan or executor but even not get the new 4* sniper make me sad
I just pulled my first 6* operator from this banner, but instead of having Magallan I got dup of Hoshiguma #rateupisalie

Another amazing guide. Keep up the great work 👍
great guide as always ! i can't wait for you to use magallan more and to tell us how to big brain with her !
Magallan and executor just spooked me in mostima banner bruh this certainly helps.
I just started and pulled vermeil. So nice building and using her.
i kinda want to raise flamebringer now after watching this
i guess its my hobby to raise not recommended characters
Amazing video and guide as always, Dreamy!
Didn't know that even Meteor was also an underperforming 4* Sniper. You learn something new everyday, I guess. :nice:

hey now, meteor and Jessica have lots of utility, they might not brute force stuff through cheer dps like the most popular snipers but their skills can make several situations viable. for instance Jessica's smokescreen allow her to defend the bottom lane against the big laser drone on annihilation 3 by herself, meteor's S1 at high level pretty much allows for a permanent debuff which helps a physical duelist be able to 1v1 a high armor unit more easily
Thank you for the information, so useful.
Huh, so that's why Flamebringer is free to get and upgraded to P6.
Oh my, 18 minutes? Blessed
Love the guides, Dreamy.
I was blessed by the Nuker tag and got Executor from Headhunting right before I got Firewatch from the Recruitment.
Got Mayer and Magallan from recruitment.
Nice
I'm disappointed you didn't play "angel with a shotgun" during Executor's introduction, or put it as the "subtitle" (laughs). Missed opportunity. Otherwise, good video as always.
I want Executor for husbando reasons (he's exactly my type), offered a drawing to gacha, and got him as my guaranteed 5* (the offering worked!). I was so ready to whale for him, but I'm so glad I don't have to. I'm happy to have him in my hands. I instantly E2 him as I've gathered materials for him beforehand (I didn't even think what would happen if I didn't get him lmao). I heard he's good, but I didn't know he's THAT good. I'm proud of him, just like Silverdaddy.
Too bad Flamebringer is not recommended, but I'll still E2 him for that art. I feel like he deserves justice...he's an interesting operator to use if only his other functions work well together. Still, he has an intriguing story and dynamics with other characters, so he's still a fun operator to explore in the story.
I actually don't know the reference :c
@@LisaraScarlet Now you know :fingerguns: (tbh I didn't know about it before Executor came to me and my friends told me about it+memes, welp)
I d love to see a Oni guide. Also interesting regarding the performance of the other 4* snipers. I didn t built up Jessica but I used Meteoras 2nd after Kross and I felt her armor break and her + dmg against drones comes in handy (or just makes her usable). It just saved me in Anni 3 again and again when the last shot kileld the damend drone before it leaked.
I agree. I feel like Meteor is overlooked too often. Her only weakness is low personal DPS against anything that isn't drones. But she increase the rest of the teams DPS. Also she synergizes well with SP batteries.
Another tip for magallan is to time and aggro switch with the drone against enemy ranged unit (calculate the unit's path and the drone invincible duration so that once the first drone is almost destroyed the second drone in range is revealed, switching the aggro and so on)
Another tip: it is important for choosing Magallan's starting place so that her slow can works in tandem with the freeze drone. Remember that she also gets a huge atk boost when using the skill.
She only gets a slow on attack if she's equipped with S1.
@@LisaraScarlet yeah the freeze drone i forgot xD
Glad to see Vermeil is not only about having a great base skill! The high aspd surprised me the most.
Vermeil's definitely getting her E2 too.
The high ATKSPD is just an innate stat from her archetype. Rapid fire snipers has the fastest ATKSPD if compared to other sniper archetypes is what I meant.
Damn executor, guess ill try him out.
Weaboo Heaven his DPS pretty much shred any enemy with Low armor. Too much, he got a lot of synergy with Pramanix and Sora, two Operator that I also have. What would happen if he get buffed? He outperform Skyfire by a mile in that condition.
"Meteor and Jessica unederperforming" Well about that i kinda disagree, since Meteor's niche is her really great anti air capabilities
and Jessica has better single target dmg and survivability then Vermeil who can be used to clear a lot of weak mobs sure but can't deal with anything even remotely armored unlike Jessica and Meteor who can at least wear down certain portions of armored enemies. Vermeil brings more AOE into the table but she can't hope to outdps Jessica or Out perform Meteor in Anti air. They all have their niche and are useful in their own game.
Well but then kross is still a better single target than both Jess and meteor. Jessica has survival going for her and meteor has got def reduction. Both are not unusable by any means. But they're still more niche than vermiel and her ability to target 2 at a time
@@vaibhavdabwalv1 Sure m8 until you realise that Chapter 5 is drone heavy and Meteor hits them like a truck. I wouldn't have cleared annihilation 3 if I used either my e1 50 vermeil or e1 50 jessica, or even my e1 55 kroos because they just suck ass at dealing with drones.
And to follow on that, try sw-ev-5 and see if Kroos can solo kill the drones before they start moving. Mf Meteor's armor reduction cuts their hp nicely while Kroos just tickle their armour
I got Meteorite, Metoer, and Executor. Damn armor shred in position.
Nice content...but pls do base buff combo guide...idk how to pair ops in base except lapp,exu,texas and cuora,noir,vermeil...that i know from you in this video...
That's the only combos you need to know currently.
I see...ty for reply...and the guide
I got a Magallan today from her 2nd Rate Up banner and I have mixed feelings. She's kinda the big brain type of operator with the drones positioning, I dunno if I will be able to use her properly instead of simply using my usual team. She cute af though 🐧😍
I got Meteorite, Meteor, and Executor for Sniper Debuff. Plus Ifrit. Damn armor shred team in position. Melting Cheese 😋
It hurts to watch this after I E2 Flamebringer earlier this morning, I knew something is wrong with his skill set when it isn't clear to me what role he's supposed to fulfill after doing some test runs. I don't regret it since he looks really cool with his E2 art.
his s1 is preety good for aduelist so theres that
Dreamy: executor is one of the best 5 star operator
Me :😆 please come home i really want you my shotgun angel
I... got him off a free single headhunt.....
Pls dont kill me
Yes this is what I need. Thanks a lot Dreamy
We need numbers on the drone's stats because that's not only unlisted on the aceship but confusing for common players like us to consider the cost/skill management. Also, some still wonders that the drone's stats are affected by the operators level despite it isn't the case.
Check Gamepress. Magallan drone increase stat as her lv is higher. Irrc, s2 drone has 500+ atk max, and s3 has 750+ at max.
been waiting for this...
Ah... We humans... I already have Magallan + Mayer (And having tons of fun just at S1), but now I want third daddy (SA & Matterhorn are first)
I'll pull a little again so at least the 4* can help me a little, I blame your good guides for any 3* that I might get (Or bless for any 5/6*)
Pdta: Building Flame cause I want variety of duelist, not just Melantha / Skadi
Thank god you uploaded this guide,i got magallan awhile ago and i dont know what to do to her cus i rarely use summoner OP.
Thank you dreamy for uploading this guide 😭
It's here!
I replayed this video twice because first time I was busy hearing the Speed of Light Remix
It is really good.
I know Jessica's kind of bad, but Meteor? She isn't great against ground units, but wouldn't she be one of the best to use against aerial units?
Meteor is definitely good at aerial enemies but still not worth building if only for that reason when other rapid-fire snipers can handle both aerial and ground enemies. Like Vermeil for example.
@@LisaraScarlet That's fair, but recommending Vermeil to people is bad advice. If you have Exu/BP (or obtain them later on), Vermeil is useless. Meteor on the other hand, outperforms both of them against drones, especially ones with armor, and has become a valuable member of my roster.
You could at least do some comparisons in your video to prove that Vermeil is good, instead of "yeah, those two are bad, just take my word for it".
Meteor IS one of the best AA units, it's just Dreamy being dumb.
Hello im meteor user too i e2 her cuz i dont have BP or Exu and i dont regret it! She carry me killing the drones at Anni 3 meanwhile my friend that having exu and bp still have 1 or 2 drones pass by
The tip is i use e2 chen so meteor S1 will charge like crazy
@@LisaraScarlet Yeah, gotta disagree with you there Dreamy. Meteor can kill frost drones and arts masters; she's bad as your primary sniper absolutely, but when you bring two snipers its to kill drones and Meteor is the best at that no question.
12:20 you said "summons stats are based on the summoner's levels....." Does this also apply to Silence's drone and Nightingale's Phantom, and other summons?
Yes.
Dreamer I really like the Operator's Guide videos, they are very explanatory and mainly accurate, which is beautiful. However, there are many other operators that, unfortunately, little is said about, and here is my suggestion: why don't you make a video to talk more about recruiting operators like Indra, for example? a hug and ty.
Good job.
Honestly,Executor become *darkhorse* for this banner LMAO
And I already get him? -NOPE-
I always want to ask, what's the background music for Magallan's part? I recall u also used it for your anni 3 guide. I really like the music.
Was sniping for executor. Ended up getting magallan. Not bad I guess, my 3rd 6*, but will definitely be benched. Im not good at fun strats
Gotta review penguin because she's my main operator in cc
At 15:30 they increase splash dmg radius
Yea, just different wording, I mentioned "increased AOE range" but you're right, yours is more specific and mine can be misleading.
Great video, as always, atm you are my favorite youtuber arknights-wise. Keep on the good work. I would like to ask two questions:
When do you think is Nian coming to EN server (and if I should save orundum since I WANT her.)?
How is called the music that plays after the "Dreamy" appears on screen at the start of the video? The one that feels like It's from a lounge bar.
1. Nian might come only on the next chinese new year for EN. She is worth the orundums.

@@LisaraScarlet thanks! I already am anxious I won't find her... ahahaha
Oh cmon dev plz revamp my boy flamebringer, i see a good potential on his story aswell.
I always wonder why AK doesn't have rank up like FGO or retrofit like Azur Lane... So many OPs need help.
Mr Blood They *do* have rank up/retrofit, which is what elite promotion is in the first place
I think you mean something like direct buff/overhaul for the Operators
@@sabrinnur3499 That's right, direct buff. Promotion is basically Ascension(FGO)/Limit Break(AL), so it's different. Certain underpowered ships in AL got retrofit after a while like Warspite or Sandy.
Mr Blood Weren't Max Potential is closer to LB instead of Promotion?
Direct buffs I guess is like the devs themselves readjusted the OPs i.e. fixing their ATK if it's underwhelming for their rarity or something
I know AL devs have been changing some of the shipgirls' skill occasionally... for better or worse
Admittedly it's not quite extreme or downright turned them OP/trash overnight, but still...
Unless they pulled an FGO and give elite 3 or something... I don't know if they're going to pull it considering the game was released a year ago on CN (and 2-3 months on other servers), so even if they have that idea, they probably would still save it for later chapters
all this time i have mayer and magallan and i've never used them...welp time to invest xD
Damn, even he cannot save Flamebringer.
Good Guide Keep it up
wanted Executor, got two Magallan and another Silence instead. Like, why?
Can I have a magallan oh right the token thing oof well can I still have her thou?
@@christianlayne2824 if I can exchange her for an Executor, I'd trade anytime bru.
@@j.airisv.8027 oof my last account had him lol
to me he is the real 6*...
@@j.airisv.8027 Well Magallan x Mayer is OP not too mention their both cute
16:35 does that include pot6? Or just M3+max level?
E2 Lv90 M3 only.
Anybody noticed the timing at 15:10 ?
ah Magallan...for some reason she's my favorite operator...i wonder why?
Me watches this video decides I'm going to do a few pulls of this banner to at least attempt to get the guaranteed 5 star. 2 pulls in and i get Magallan... 40 pulls on Chen banner fucking 0 banner units 2 on this gets me Magallan rng gods why do you do this to me...
Before I watch, I'm gonna just say I better hear some good things about little SP Battery Vermeil over there. Although, if you use Ptilopsis like a sane man, I can relate to not using her.
Vermeil isn't an SP battery. Her passive only works on herself.
Got Executor a few days ago, built him up to E1 cause I thought his kit looked interesting. I took him to a stage with a lot of enemies coming up at once and he just...DELETED them, two shots and they were gone. Working on E2 him soon cause, shit, 160 defense pierce? Yes please.
Anybody else notice the intro sounds just like the start of Crossing Field?
You're not alone, others have commented this as well. And all of you are not wrong either, my intro is indeed the first 4 keys of Crossing Field. Good ears!
So do you NEED to have Magallan at P6? Or just E2 Max skills?
P6 not needed.
whats the music after the music box intro? ive been trying to find it for a while now, its driving me crazy!
th-cam.com/video/-dULDZilB1U/w-d-xo.html
thanks !! i can sleep well now!!
Make that Mayer x Magallan duo guide soon pls~ XD
I'm eager to see what big brains can do with them~
Hi! Great work as always. I was just curious if maybe you could showcase the Mayer Magallan duo stages?
There are some of them in bilibili.
Hello! I didn't know the 4* was that good. I didn't plan to invest in her since I already have Exusiai E2 and Jessica and Kroos at E1 lvl max, but I will when I have some spare mats. The double targeting could be handy in drone maps I guess.
You mentioned Matoimaru when talking about Flamebringer. Is Matoimaru worth leveling? I use Melantha but would like to have another option when it comes to duelists.
Keep your good work up and take care!
Matoimaru is extremely niche, she's more of a waifu pick. She's used to defend a remote spot and survive by herself through S1.
I have exu for main sniper, but don't have plat or bp, should I use meteor Jessica kroos or vermeil as my 2nd sniper?
I would suggest Vermeil.
On your friend profile under the number for Operators Hired there's a whole bunch of blue and white symbols. What do those mean?
If you have complete collection for that symbol, the symbol will change color. For example if you have Skadi and Specter, the octopus symbol will become blue.
Hey a quick question on magallan drone, when deploying them will it cancel out how enemy always target the last operator deployed since they cannot be targeted due to the 20 seconds of invincibility?
Still the same aggro system, the enemy caster will still attack the last deployed operater/drone
Ammar Zaki aww ok if it did work I would’ve abuse the hell out of magallan
Say if i'm new to the game, is magallan worth rerolling for? Maybe for late game content and try to get mayer too
I wouldn't say worth rerolling for.
reroll for silverash, effy, or siege make u easier in early and mid game
@@jisheg I actually got silverash, saria, and angelina. But i'm kinda interested with magallan and mayer combo. I might not be able to get magallan again because of F2P
heh this feels ironic as I'm a few lmd away from E2ing flamebringer
is it redundant to gacha for Executor when i have E2 Provence?
Or is Provence completely outclassed by Executor, therefore i gotta spent my orundum for him?
Provence is for sniping big boss, she sux balls against trash mobs, executor is better against mobs but not as good against boss.
Executor and provence is differrent, Provance focus on 1 enemy while Executor focus on all enemies in range. it's really up to you if you want to summon but you don't really need to, i personally think Executor is better because he can be used in alot of stages efficiently.
@@vietnamabc2290 somehow I don't get the notification, I'm sorry for late responding to your comment.
So Provence still better for bossing/focus firing single target then, noted. Thanks!
@@ShiroAos I thought executor also the most proficient sniper for killing boss, if Provence is not outclasses on killing bosses then I don't care about Executor that much
Thanks!
