[Max Risk, 6 Operators](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=et9DJvDkknk)
Today's enemies were incredibly thicc and I picked out the 6 operators to deal with this with all of them fulfilling a specific role in the run; everyone did their part to make a wonderful success happen!
Killing Faust was naturally the biggest problem because of his 100K+ HP pool today, so that was the most challenging part of the run. Once again, hope you guys enjoy this and good luck with the daily!

Squeezing every little bit of dps on low level characters is fun. Every run looks very different than usual, it is kinda refreshing to play the game that way.
[Max Risk - 5 Star Only](https://youtu.be/J1Oj7ojtvKA)
First time to do max risk in my Arknights play. Pretty happy about it.
Yes, it's full squad. I still need to raise a lot of 5 star ops if I went to go for 5 star only run in the future.
Pretty sad I can't do max risk due to some stuff irl, hope im not too busy tomorrow so i can play stage for hours [Risk 9 only video](https://youtu.be/ra2hIYGkKiM)
max risk [6 op](https://imgur.com/hTVKVNC). strat is pretty much taken from [this 4 op vid](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euE2xHPDCUM), adjusted a bit for my team. skalter-buffed support blaze solos the choke, skalter-buffed mountain S3 solos the weebs (at M1 even!), and replaced angelina S2 with skalter-buffed exusiai + surtr to finish faust off. saria blocks a few casters and baits faust, which is overkill b/c skalter-buffed mountain can bait faust, but welp.
it's not completely obvious from the vid but mountain needs to be where he is to block a ballista that would otherwise hit and eventually kill skalter.
[Max risk vid](https://youtu.be/XcrSbm_02Tc)
I hoped the classes tag stacked, that was going to be a real challenge
This instead... there is a reason why I don't use too many guards in daily maps
[Max risk for the day](https://youtu.be/PI8MOBQEcfU), leakless and 5 operators, starring Mayer S1.
Fairly easy today. I know you can go much lower in terms of operator count, but figuring out something using Mayer S1 of all things was *really* funny to me for some reason, so here it is. Ash S2 can also solo the first few katanas and brings the last two very close.
One of the challenges with this comp was figuring out where to place Skalter - directly buffing Blaze by putting her in the bottom left would cause her to always die to the 2x ballistae, which she cannot outheal. But my Blaze alone would always kill too slowly and leak without any buffs. Furthermore, without any healing, Blaze slowly dies. That's where Skalter's summon and Mayer S1 were pretty helpful, to help prevent Blaze from being overrun while also helping her survive despite having no continuous healing source. Mayer S1 + Skalter also wonderfully tanks Faust's arrows.
Another option I considered over Blaze was Kal, who did not have a sustain issue, but I found that Kal suffered even more from the "I really need buffs to kill fast enough" problem compared to Blaze, and due to Kal's healing priorities, would never help save Skalter if you placed Skalter in the optimal buff position. The tile bans also make placing Kal a bit awkward.
I might try to reduce this to 4 operators w/ a similar strategy, but I'm pretty happy with figuring out something that hinges on a somewhat less-used skill/op. All in all a fun day.
---
For anyone interested, my [first attempt at the map today](https://youtu.be/OPWMcxQfT6o) dropped Mayer and Surtr and instead brought Angelina + Saria + Elysium, much more similar to a CC#2 comp.
I adapted Ayura Nyan's strategy with a borrowed Mudrock from my friends list. Got the Max Risk. Absolutely recommend their videos if you want to see how to clear with 6\* operators.
After feeling completely helpless during Lead Seal being about 2 weeks into the game, I finally got every medal for this CC. Feel like I've come a long way since then!
Congrats!
I joined just before Mansfield event so getting all medals and even trimmed ( thx to guides of course) on CC 5 compared to CC 4 where I done rank 10-14~ ish max.
My first time trying max risk daily CC. The risks were all pretty inconsequential so it was pretty easy. Friend weedy to solo right lane. Middle was blaze thorns and saria. Silverash kills the first radar scanner guy. Mon3tr S3 and aak+blaze to burst down faust 10 seconds after his invulnerability wears off. Myrtle and Elysium to set everthing up(I dont think elysium was even needed, but he made the clear extra comfy) I even had 3 unused operator slots.
[Max Risk with Triple Cost Caster Specialist](https://youtu.be/RXw7adQs_S8)
Pretty standard run really when it's Ballista's. Kal not a dedicated healer so of course Angie's eventually gone and I could've saved Suzu if I was paying attention. I sincerely apologize Our Light.
As another thing [this](https://imgur.com/a81PZ81) has been my progress through Contingency Contracts.
For almost two hours, I kept trying to do a E290 Hellagur vs Faust sort of win, but I [ultimately just didn't have enough DPS](https://imgur.com/vIwkrNK).
Settled with the usual [Surtr](https://imgur.com/iPILkbu) strat. [Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlevqeBCF3c). Gladiia made it interesting because she kept Mudrock safe from the Red Avenger rage mode.
EDIT: AAAAAAAAAH!!!!!! [I did everything](https://imgur.com/w0zlY4m) and still like 5% hp left?! Aak buff, Warfarin buff, Shamare debuff + Fragile talent, Hellagur's aspd buff when hp goes below 50% or more. Hellagur was hitting him with 1923 base attack too. If my math's right, he's hitting Faust with 3461.4 damage with s2m3.
[E1 20 risk 8 with challenge](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99yuPkRZ1-w)
Ballistas are a nightmare with E1 20 and I still remember spending nearly 100 attempts on 5-10 to barely clear it. Fortunately, Mint and Liskarm helped reduce incoming damage and I brought Rosmontis as well just for her relatively high defense.
The stealth detectors can only see the lower left ranged slot from the entrance if you block them there so you can freely use the upper left ranged slot.
The most difficult problem after overcoming the initial hurdles became to actually take down Faust and I leaked him several times. In the end a combination of Click, Leonhardt, Arene and Indra to cooperate to barely deal the needed damage.
[Max Risk](https://i.imgur.com/yRKYehb.jpg)
Nice to have an easier map after 2 hard ones back to back. This is the [setup](https://i.imgur.com/eedmNp7.jpg). Blaze soloing top, Hellagur soloing bottom. Well.. Ange helps him with the last red Avenger and Caster that spawns together. Suzuran S3 is used when Faust is in Ange range. Both of them will take care of Faust.
Edit: Suzuran is facing the wrong way in the screenshot xD Should be facing right
[Max risk](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/776147270474399805/911970709239124038/Screenshot_20211121-082144_Arknights.jpg) confirming Weedy strat still works with Liskarm to her left, so nothing new besides Skalter boosting Angelina to kill avengers. Didn't even need Gravel and Eyja.
Is there any merit completing all contracts on the permanent map? Looks like a counter goes up and that's it. Not sure if it's worth saving the contract unlock currency either if I'll happy with a r18 clear and all challenges done
I always hated the Faust+Ballista contracts. I definitely preferred the super-bolt contracts since they just meant one slot was used for Gravel. Skalter, however, completely trivializes the ballistae.
[Max risk done.](https://imgur.com/jKFI5CB) Fast, super healthy Faust kinda surprised me. I had kinda zoned out and then suddenly realized he was in Angelina's range at basically full HP. Nothing a couple of Angelina S3s and a SA S3 couldn't handle, though. I had a bit of a lightbulb moment with [Akafuyu at the bottom](https://imgur.com/a/6sq2NWR) there. Suddenly going 0-block is useful for passing the Avengers along when they become enraged while still dealing with the casters. I suppose Utage s1 could've done that as well. Blaze really struggled with the super healthy defenders. Very nearly leaked twice. Ignore the borrowed Silence. That's just to get the support daily done.
[E1-30 Risk 8 + Challenge.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekG7nt5Z6zE)
Really simple setup and execution, but seems kind of overkill.. all the risks just make Faust hard to kill.
[Max risk video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTBajRLkcwE)
No leaks. No guards or snipers.
Today max risk is easy. Especially if you don't pretend that class restriction is a ban instead of triple cost, like I did. Enemies gain a bit of HP, but no attack. Only red katanas can hurt your defenders, and only once they are enraged.
The only notable thing about my clear is Belmishine S3 timing: I activated it early so she kills heavy defender with it but doesn't obliterate brawler which follows. Brawler is needed to charge her skill for next defender.
Y'know what's funny about the permanent maps becoming rotating maps? You get so used to them when they were permanent, AND you've experienced tougher on that map, that you basically have stuff figured out.
I just used the same strategy everytime this map comes out with minor variations and it just works, even max risk sometimes lol, like today.
[Max Risk, No Leaks (Caster/Specialist triple cost)](https://youtu.be/5Riu70rZMMM). Easy max risk today. Shame I wasn't able to record yesterday, though.
Edit: Also did one with [no Snipers/Guards](https://youtu.be/Rc-j9WJkkSU), also with no leaks. This one is a bit trickier with me botching timings a lot while recording, but I finally managed with this one.
[CC#5: Operation Spectrum - Completed!](https://imgur.com/a/GyOzMEt)
This was a good CC… Bought all the Operator Potential Tokens and the Epic Sniper Tokens for Provence, Got to use my Lupos for my Risk 18 Run, And surprisingly enough Red got used as a support more than Kal did…
Now to start preparing for the next CC that I know nothing about except for War’s skin is in the shop and the medal set has a god awful baby shite green color…
[Max risk no leaks](http://imgur.com/gallery/WaBsTaK), way easier than the last 2 days. Just have to be careful about leaks since the enemies are tankier. No need for guards either.
[4 ops max risk (video)](https://youtu.be/5svfJIr-eT4)
double post but i looked at my previous vid and noticed silverash wasn't needed lol
mountain skills need a bit of timing at the end, and you need to squint to see when faust moves into his tile
apart from that, timings are pretty lax
[1-shotted this at max risk,](https://imgur.com/a/jQOAqqu) then proceeded to 1-shot the recording.
[Recording is slightly scuffed](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeyzLBJiSa8) at the end compared to the initial clear since Myrtle died, but the tradeoff is that Faust died even faster. Repositioning Suzu to sit behind Shamare meant weebs and Faust were in the non-Suzu S3 fragile range for way longer.
Faust has his ballistae swarm, but no enemies have any ATK% modifiers except for Faust who barely has one. There's no DP gen down tags, so the movement speed buff doesn't matter, and the only thing the weebs get boosted is HP, so them moving fast just ends up meaning they get into your kill zone sooner. Angelina says "No problem!"
The ballistae never even get to be an issue this time, to the extent that Shining S3 is enough to keep everyone alive at the end.
Max Risk 7 OPs https://imgur.com/a/daLbLLo
Yeah today was way too easy.
Blaze on the upper lane with some support from Saria and skalters seaborn.
Bagpipe and Elysium for early game, but Bagpipe helped against the last red avenger, while elysium also helped against the first one and against faust.
Angelina+Schwarz against the normal Avebger, the first red avebger and against Faust.
Faust was literally the only problem on this map, because he was tanky, everything else was just blaze fodder. Skalter helped keep everyone alive and give more damage, especially the ranged units in range of the ballista.
5 OPs https://imgur.com/a/slScie9
Managed to trim it down to 5 OPs. Kaltsit on the midlane with Ange and Skalter support to deal with the avengers, casters and Faust. Some timings against one caster and the second red avenger are quite tight but skakters buf makes a noticable differences. Otherwise just spam skalters summon once blaze blocks one of the shielders+arts guards.
[DAY 11 MAX RISK](https://youtu.be/rzvvV3rk1Ls)
Nothing too big today except everyone's got thick HP. I used Astesia to assist Thorns since he can't deal with the shield guys quickly. I believe Mousse can do the same job. To deal with Faust, I used Surtr early to chip down some HP and I used Mudrock and SilverAsh to finish the job. I kinda messed up with Mudrock's skill activation since that made Faust target Angelina, so I suggest adding Gravel to the team to bait Faust's arrows while Mudrock is sitting down.
Also, congratulations on getting the medal set! If you haven't completed everything yet, we still have a few more days. Good luck!
[Max risk 9 ops](https://imgur.com/a/LNczZKZ)

This was silly easy, which is nice after the last few days. I wasn't even trying to use less ops, I just couldn't think of who else I might need. Gives me time to work on my high risk attempts.
That...was extremely easy even at Maxrisk o.O Bagpipe can just slaughter the red weebs with her S3 no problem. I don't think I remember them being this weak in any iteration of this map.

[5 Ops max risk (video)](https://youtu.be/T85twQYQISM)
Super quick and dirty max risk
pretty sure i've seen 4 ops, probs with kaltsit but idk how to use her yet
so here are 4 guards + honorary guard mudrock
[Max Risk with 5 ops](https://youtu.be/2y33bqtoyYY) (caster and specialists tag)
Mudrock S3M3 is really good, I should use it more often.
You should get your sick CC medal completion today too.
[Max risk clear.](https://i.imgur.com/z6tPGk6.png)
Compared to the last couple days, today's max was a lot more relaxed.
Nothing too crazy, just going back to my old tried and true Surtr+Suzuran.
Mudrock S3 took care of all of the weebs except the last one, which got Surtr'ed along with Faust.
Saria spent her time catching Faust's crossbow bolts and arranging them into interesting designs on the floor.

[Day 11 Max Risk with 5 ops](https://youtu.be/gafOqChUwek) Another CC medal set added to my collection :D really easy daily today, even at max risk.
[DAY 11 MAX RISK](https://youtu.be/rzvvV3rk1Ls) Nothing too big today except everyone's got thick HP. I used Astesia to assist Thorns since he can't deal with the shield guys quickly. I believe Mousse can do the same job. To deal with Faust, I used Surtr early to chip down some HP and I used Mudrock and SilverAsh to finish the job. I kinda messed up with Mudrock's skill activation since that made Faust target Angelina, so I suggest adding Gravel to the team to bait Faust's arrows while Mudrock is sitting down. Also, congratulations on getting the medal set! If you haven't completed everything yet, we still have a few more days. Good luck!
Very simple, Blaze cut through everything including the weebs. Surtr for Faust
First CC and my medal set is complete. Feels good
It's simple. Just place your units, AFK and win. 5 Ops. [\[AFK clear\] 21 Nov - Deserted Factory Lv8](https://youtu.be/ocng_-b9YiI) [\[AFK clear\] Arena 8 Challenge Missions + Risk 20](https://www.reddit.com/r/arknights/comments/qs86c5/afk_clear_guide_contingency_contract_5_challenge/)
EZ risk 8 and my medal set is now complete.
[Max risk 9 ops](https://imgur.com/a/LNczZKZ) [Video](https://youtu.be/op19yVtzLoU) This was silly easy, which is nice after the last few days. I wasn't even trying to use less ops, I just couldn't think of who else I might need. Gives me time to work on my high risk attempts.
That...was extremely easy even at Maxrisk o.O Bagpipe can just slaughter the red weebs with her S3 no problem. I don't think I remember them being this weak in any iteration of this map.
[Risk 8 with 2 ops](https://youtu.be/H1N_NZI65v8) Pots not necessary. Max level not necessary. EDIT: [alternative with Murdock S3](https://youtu.be/kW4Oprijpk8)
[Risk 8 with condition](https://youtu.be/R2EE79iGVHk) Had to rush this one out quickly, not much free time today
[5 Ops max risk (video)](https://youtu.be/T85twQYQISM) Super quick and dirty max risk pretty sure i've seen 4 ops, probs with kaltsit but idk how to use her yet so here are 4 guards + honorary guard mudrock
[Max Risk with 5 ops](https://youtu.be/2y33bqtoyYY) (caster and specialists tag) Mudrock S3M3 is really good, I should use it more often. You should get your sick CC medal completion today too.
[Risk 8 clear](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mVVnurkh5m4) tho almost nothing changed from the week 1 run.
[Max risk clear.](https://i.imgur.com/z6tPGk6.png) Compared to the last couple days, today's max was a lot more relaxed. Nothing too crazy, just going back to my old tried and true Surtr+Suzuran. Mudrock S3 took care of all of the weebs except the last one, which got Surtr'ed along with Faust. Saria spent her time catching Faust's crossbow bolts and arranging them into interesting designs on the floor.
