After blood sweat and tears were sacrificed to finish GT-HX-1 to GT-HX-3, I thought the nightmare was over. So i texted my friend : "man the GT stages are so rough". He replied with : "yeah man but the challenge modes are even rougher..." After a long pause I hesitantly texted back: "...challenge modes?..." The answer that I hoped I would never hear came to realisation *"Yeah man the challenge mode stages for the GTs"* Thanks alot Kyo, you really helped me out with the challenge stages ahah
Ikr back when I tried to do this I didnt have half the units that I have now and it was fun af seeing Ifrit melt big adams face off (with a bit of assistance from Myrtle who managed to generate over 45+ dp in the span of 15 seconds to get the road blocks down :P)
For me, CM was almost no harder lol. With Siege S2, Zima S2, and Vigna, i was able to generate plenty of DP, and with the help of my M1 Ifrit, E2 Ptilopsis and an Eyja from support, Big Adam got cooked, Literally. Honestly, Ifrit trivialized this entire event. I think there were only one or two maps that didn't have an amazing Ifrit lane.
Thanks for the guides, never managed to do this and stage 2 when the event first came out but now thanks to having E2 Eyja big Adam just melted before me.
So here am I, about one hour left of event, panic-leveling units, using what I have at hand and refreshing my friends list to get a good vangard but yeah, already got that last one Originium, Kyo, you're a saviour, as always thanks for your concise and helpful videos.
Thanks man, as usual I had a hard time doing this specifically because I'm just not used to using low rarity operators. The first time I failed I definitely knew because it was my deployment costs were too high. Plus having a hard time imagining how AI would navigate the blocks as usual.
Somehow beat it before your guide was up, though it took me a couple of tries. Surprisingly, the strategy I used was almost identical to this, I just had a different order in the start. Still a great guide and great help for everyone.
Thank you very much. this guide was very useful. It even allowed for some leeway in case you failed the set up. On the practice I failed to deploy the roadblocks in time and so Adam was not isolated, and yet I still won somehow, probably thanks to having 3 medics healing the defender. On the second and proper try, I forgot to turn on my units skills and so enemy units leaked through. All I had to do was open the top and block the bottom, the enemies went all the way back around. And when i was ready i reversed it again. Then after the goons were dealt with all we needed to do was beat Big Adam up.
Also didn't do this one until now. Man, making a killzone for Ifrit and Angelina makes even the challenge mode a cakewalk (though I did need more DP for the art. Myrtle and Texas just barely made it) Thanks, and it's really cool that your guides are still revisited after all this time.
I love your Videos man. You are the GOAT for sure. I watch you and one other Creator for all my Arknights information and you guys have made me so much better at the game. From understanding what my units are capable of to really cheesy fun strategies that i might not have thought of. Just wanted to show some love and thank you. Keep up the good work!
Brother your guide is SO Good!!! I managed to do it with ease i used SIlence as one of the healers and with her drone i guarantee Big adam wont kill Cuora . Thank You so much Brother.
I couldn't seem to get a couple of the blocks down to send enemies on walkabout bc there were too many enemies on the designated space at the designated time but somehow managed to muscle thru anyway so cha-ching! Got the nugget! Thanks!
Thanks again for this. I couldn't use my original setup because of the roadblock cost lol Also damn, didn't know it was better to have 12F be the 2nd AoE caster because of his dodge skill, I tried using Lava at first and she died fast because of the ranged enemies
thanks for the minimum hp and def of the defender tips being 2,1k and 600.. my lv55 saria can tank 1 hit from big adam with only 2 healers so i can put it more dps to whack big adam faster!!
Yea this one was bullshit. The way for me to win in the normal mode was through retreating roadblock and replacing them over and over again so big adam would have to go back and forth while being bombarded by my casters, but with triple cost, this strategy just went out the window.
i failed to lead adam with the blocks at the end. cuora died and i thought i lost. my team had gummy instead of beagle. gummy tanked adam with no problem. my cuora and gummy are e1 lvl50 skill rank 4. i don't know how adam attacked cuora who was behind gummy. i don't know how gummy is tankier than cuora. it was amazing.
For one I'm surprised that in my case Saria was dead with one hit and Cuora tanked Adam easily, both at e1 lvl60, gotta look into Gummy thanks to your comment :)
It's probably because gummy has a higher health pool when you have decent trust (increases hp), it allows her to tank an attack even with lower defense.
I just use brute force by having ops taking turns in locking big adam lol Bibeak, Glaucus, Rosa, maybe Megallan helped abit, Projekt Red, Texas. Then use a high atk aoe op to sweep.
Woah... I'm new player, new subscriber and this is my second event in this game... Your video to clear this challenge is very very very helpful... Thanks for the video...
- Try this method in practice mode, work very well. - Try this in actually operation, Can't place block fast enough to block Big Adam. He just destroyed block and go through but luckily my Beagle already block 3 enemies so Big Adam just walk pass through her and attack Cuora.
LOL, this happened to me as well, then for some reason a E1 60 Cuora can still tank Big Adam even without her skill active. I have leveled enough on my healer than when they all target Cuora alone, she was able to heal back her HP enough to continuously take a hit. It was hilarious.
If someone has issues or doesn't have tanky enough units to hold Big Bob - you can always set up a "death corridor" with single target damage dealers (arts preferred), a Slow supporter and make Bob's AI confused by removing blocks in the upper area, blocking off his bottom path, then removing bottom block again and blocking top again. He'll effectively move up and down twice while your casters pellet him. That's how I cleared normal mode, too...
I did this today with a lower level. Cuora only had 545 defense for example. But I still followed this guide while making my own adjustments (like deploying the second defender before doing the second roadblock). Cuora couldn't tank Adam without her skill, so after she got knocked out, I had to make him walk back and forth using the roadblocks while he took damage from my casters. Nerve wracking.
Bro I use almost the same operators as yours, but I used fang, texas, myrrh, perfurmer and haze instead. All of them at e1 lvl 50. The Big Adam moment is the key IMO, for killing Big Adam I need to deploy Melantha and Fang again lol. Anyway, thanks bro! I got 3 stars because of this!
Ufff I had to change the strategy a bit, alot of enemies where passing through D:, so I used Projekt Red, but thanks! It really gives a nice idea of where to focus.
I honestly wished the practice runs didn't take 3 plans to do. I wanted to beat this before your guides were up but I ran out and I didn't want to waste stamina outside of farming Kohl and Grindstones
@@KyoStinV Yeah I try to manage it by using it just before sending the sniper but it doesn't always work. I'll keep trying though, thanks for your videos they help a lot!
one thing is for sure, Either use low star with highest lvl or use (5*6*)Elite operators with highest level. There is no point of using (5*6*) operator at lvl 40 because they will have high cost with less dmg. Aghh this is so frustrating
As Riku said, if you're full f2p player save them, or if you want progress fast only at the beginning of the game to buy around 10 times of sanity, it's enough to Elite almost 1 squad into E1 so you will be able to clear annihilation and most of supplies levels. After that start to save them, but it's depending on you. Personally i always keep them for skins and sometimes during events or when i need someone urgently at E1 i buy sanity.
You know what really grinds my gears? people who have E2 suppport units but DOESN'T PUT SKILL 2 OR 3!!! Like, why'd yu E2'D them and set them as your support units inthe first place!?!? Sorry, had to vent coz I used a skyfire support unit with S1 XD
I'd be more inclined to try and figure it out myself if each run didn't cost me half my stamina. This particular map design is not to my liking. Not much room to maneuver and you have to do things a very specific way to find success.
After blood sweat and tears were sacrificed to finish GT-HX-1 to GT-HX-3, I thought the nightmare was over.
So i texted my friend : "man the GT stages are so rough".
He replied with : "yeah man but the challenge modes are even rougher..."
After a long pause I hesitantly texted back: "...challenge modes?..."
The answer that I hoped I would never hear came to realisation
*"Yeah man the challenge mode stages for the GTs"*
Thanks alot Kyo, you really helped me out with the challenge stages ahah
Gotta Say Kyo feels like a cheatcode to all stages
@@Gredoxx Cheat Kyode, you could say.
it feels extremely good to clear this stage 9 months after overpowering big adam with brute force
Lmao same, just casually uses Eyafjala, Angelina, Exusiai, Silverash, Hoshi and juke Big Adam to have some time to charge the skills 😂
@@An-sp4br dont worry you will get her, its a 4star defender so wont be long
I want to take my revenge today.
My battle tempered CC Proofed Operators vs Big Adam.
Who's the boss now Adam?!
Ikr back when I tried to do this I didnt have half the units that I have now and it was fun af seeing Ifrit melt big adams face off (with a bit of assistance from Myrtle who managed to generate over 45+ dp in the span of 15 seconds to get the road blocks down :P)

Honestly, Ifrit trivialized this entire event. I think there were only one or two maps that didn't have an amazing Ifrit lane.
Your english is getting pretty good, even I as a non-native speaker can notice it, keep up the good work!
Seeing Skadi and Exusiai on your roster.... "You were supposed to destroy it, not join them !"
Thanks for this and every guide, we really appreciate the effort you put into these!
it's levels like these that remind me why ifrit is the most satisfying operator to use
Turning Big Ben around where you did was the tip i needed. Much Appreciated
Thanks for the guides, never managed to do this and stage 2 when the event first came out but now thanks to having E2 Eyja big Adam just melted before me.
I just finished all the challenge mode stages myself but I will always watch your videos to admire them. Well done Mr Gameshark!
i had difficulty with all these levels, thank you so much for these videos! they are the reason why i could clear them
So here am I, about one hour left of event, panic-leveling units, using what I have at hand and refreshing my friends list to get a good vangard but yeah, already got that last one Originium, Kyo, you're a saviour, as always thanks for your concise and helpful videos.

Can we appreciate just how tanky Heavy Defender Lieutenant is?
I don't want to, but I'm forced to due to having to deal with him
@@felipejocanojr.7516 Same...
Thanks to your guide I was barely able to beat this challenge.
I just found your channel , the only thing i can say is thank you , you helped me a lot :D
Also didn't do this one until now. Man, making a killzone for Ifrit and Angelina makes even the challenge mode a cakewalk (though I did need more DP for the art. Myrtle and Texas just barely made it)

Thanks alot dude, you’re my fav Arknight youtube

This was incredibly helpful. Thanks a lot! :D
Thank you so much for these guides. Thanks to your help I managed to clear every stage ! I’m so happy and so thankful 💛
Grazie del video, come al solito molto utile e chiaro
Confirmed this still works, definitely made easier with some of the newer units!
Brother your guide is SO Good!!! I managed to do it with ease i used SIlence as one of the healers and with her drone i guarantee Big adam wont kill Cuora . Thank You so much Brother.
The funniest to play was the 2nd one, where I cheese it a little with Specter and Pramanix gorgeous range & skills, thanks for the guide
thank you so much for every guide.
finally i have been waiting for you kyo san
I couldn't seem to get a couple of the blocks down to send enemies on walkabout bc there were too many enemies on the designated space at the designated time but somehow managed to muscle thru anyway so cha-ching! Got the nugget! Thanks!

Also damn, didn't know it was better to have 12F be the 2nd AoE caster because of his dodge skill, I tried using Lava at first and she died fast because of the ranged enemies
Decided on using aoe guard instead of beagle to deal with numerous soldiers not dying fast enough on the lower path, blaze specifically
thank you so much for this guide!!!
thanks for the minimum hp and def of the defender tips being 2,1k and 600.. my lv55 saria can tank 1 hit from big adam with only 2 healers so i can put it more dps to whack big adam faster!!
I had such a hard time with this one. I just threw operators at big adam with istina slowing him and three aoe casters lol
Yea this one was bullshit.
The way for me to win in the normal mode was through retreating roadblock and replacing them over and over again so big adam would have to go back and forth while being bombarded by my casters, but with triple cost, this strategy just went out the window.
Looks like a job for myrtle.
Thanks for the strats, Eyja saved me on this one becuz of her damage
@KyoStinV keep em coming man! Your videos help so much on stages I have tried n tried and need help to complete
I could see the smirks of Doktahs who are now taking revenge of Big Adam and Big Bob. Good job fellow Doktahs
i failed to lead adam with the blocks at the end. cuora died and i thought i lost. my team had gummy instead of beagle. gummy tanked adam with no problem. my cuora and gummy are e1 lvl50 skill rank 4.

Best guide so far
- Try this method in practice mode, work very well.
- Try this in actually operation, Can't place block fast enough to block Big Adam. He just destroyed block and go through but luckily my Beagle already block 3 enemies so Big Adam just walk pass through her and attack Cuora.

Ah this brings memories. Even the old UI.

He'll effectively move up and down twice while your casters pellet him. That's how I cleared normal mode, too...
LOL! congratz man!
Y couldn't even with an Ifrit LMAO
Your guide always the best! At least it doesn't involve "f2p" units like Texas etc

Thanks for video S2.
Bro I use almost the same operators as yours, but I used fang, texas, myrrh, perfurmer and haze instead. All of them at e1 lvl 50.
The Big Adam moment is the key IMO, for killing Big Adam I need to deploy Melantha and Fang again lol.
Anyway, thanks bro! I got 3 stars because of this!
@@Zack_Zander I haven't level my Mousse yet, but thanks for the info bro!
Ufff I had to change the strategy a bit, alot of enemies where passing through D:, so I used Projekt Red, but thanks! It really gives a nice idea of where to focus.
Back in the time when he only had 2 E2. Wow.
Thanks for Texas alter for saving my life
You've got new subscriber.
thx for walkthrough
BLESS YOU
yep, this time was full brute force, used E2 Hoshi and Blaze.... Finally some revenge
It's really a bit stressed I guess but he's like our teacher for teach us XD
Thanks man. Btw Mousse can cheese it with underleveled Cuora (though E1 is needed for 2nd skill).
Old videos old voice xD love it
here again because of the Rerun
I honestly wished the practice runs didn't take 3 plans to do. I wanted to beat this before your guides were up but I ran out and I didn't want to waste stamina outside of farming Kohl and Grindstones
reading the comments 9 months ago, i am kinda sad i did not suffer here back then since i was not playing :X
Now we only need Surtr to solo Big Adam hahaha. What a good old time
I'm new to this game and this gave me so much anxiety 😱
Bro meriti una laurea in gamedesing solo per essere riuscito a clearare sto inferno f2p
You dont need to block Big Adam though. You can just roadblock cheese him with slows.
Yes i know, but if you don't have enough dps to kill him you maybe finish roadblocks, so that method is safely 😉
I guess it also means they dont need to pay as much attention if their tank can survive
Yoo i come from the future
Yeah boyy Re run event Grani muehehe
Nice strategy, another players use the Where's the bathroom? Strategy with full casters and support slow
ty
Hellloooo
Edit: i just have defender..
I feel like I'm cheating myself by following all these guides but I'd be fucked if I didn't.
What emulator do you use to play Arknights? And what do you use to record it?
you give me no choice but to press subscribe button
KyoStinV 3 - GT-HX challenge modes 0 :-)
just bring up eyjafjalla its clear

She has the stun too no?
Should work

Kyos i want to ask What PO priorities used for?its is worth burn PO for sanity?
i feel if you are f2p without monthly, burn the PO for sanity to clear the shop. Otherwise save since it might be chen and vitafield next
As Riku said, if you're full f2p player save them, or if you want progress fast only at the beginning of the game to buy around 10 times of sanity, it's enough to Elite almost 1 squad into E1 so you will be able to clear annihilation and most of supplies levels.
After that start to save them, but it's depending on you.
Personally i always keep them for skins and sometimes during events or when i need someone urgently at E1 i buy sanity.
Thanks All for Sugestion...
did we need to get many high star unit to clear all episode? 'cause i just burn like 30 more PO to sanity ._____.
does anyone got problem at first 4 enemy? i dunno why but the first 4 enemy just keep pass through my vanguard. any help?
Ahaa I managed to clear this one BEFORE watching the video this timee
Why Cuora dying in GT-HX-2 but not in GT-HX-3?
Melee panel on hx2 is drop her def but hx3 is ranged tile that drop def
You know what really grinds my gears?
people who have E2 suppport units but DOESN'T PUT SKILL 2 OR 3!!!
Like, why'd yu E2'D them and set them as your support units inthe first place!?!?
Sorry, had to vent coz I used a skyfire support unit with S1 XD
Thabks for the guides even the cm ones cause i can do tower defense games wotgout turtorial lol
This one was ass
I needed like 5 tries
Thank's kyo for ur gameplay
