Just to quickly reinforce something Esgoo didn't mention fully but had little visual blurbs about: Pierce encounters, especially on later floors, are HELL. Most of the time you'll fight Pequod Town or Mermaids. They're pretty solidly the hardest of the 3 damage types. They have really good clashing and, most importantly imo, have negative coin skills, which are deadly at higher offense level given that, due to the nature of negative coin skills, you effectively HAVE to clash with skills/EGO with higher ceilings than them. Not to mention how the battle forecast can trick you into taking literally unwinnable clashes with "Favored"s.

My team benefits from Bleed gifts, Sinking gifts, and Tremor gifts (I never thought N Corp Don nails+tremor niche will be actually useful until now).

I do think that the new Mirror is a huge upgrade gameplay-wise , though wish that you could check skills on vending machine pages. Don't always remember which S2/3s are more valuable on my team.

I think the only challenge most people will face is Floor 5 and only because PM once again spams enemy skills that out rolls most ID skills. If you don’t want to make a specific team comp just get ego resources and spam egos just like with md2h.

Those who have Dieci Rodya. I *STRONGLY RECOMMEND* to give her an extra slot, the only reason i get through MD3H easily was due to the fact that she's a beast when it comes to tanking, her aggro will help you a lot during boss fight, and giving her 1 extra slot pretty much enables her to constantly tanking and tanking without taking any or much damage from the enemy... Once again, you cannot just force clash to an enemy when it's pretty much "Hopeless", if you can't, just guard or evade... Or, OR... Hear me out... *ONE-SIDED ATTACK* , yes... This are your friends in a long run, once you learn how to do one sided attack on bosses, it will be a breeze, just make sure you have a tank tho :v Yeah i cleared it with Poise build... *Maxed Nebulizer + Clover + Endorphin Kit = infinite Poise = perma damage boost..*

One thing going from 35->40 in terms of recommended level of ID, EGOs were all balanced in offense level around ID level 30->35, so starting in this MD I started to feel like they were lacking in offense level against some boss skills. PM will probably have to change EGO offense level scaling with lvl 45 at the very least I think

Remember the old adage from Ruina when doing Focused Encounters. Just Don't Clash. It is perfectly fine to not clash if you can fish for a stagger before they get their turn, or know you'll be okay. Also remember that -45 Sanity is only as scary as your EGO loadout. I went up against Siltcurrent and just let Blind Obsession hit K Hong Lu. Did not care, let it through. Then I let Rime Shank Corrode, had that cause another corrosion, but THAT was from Dimension Shredder Hong Lu who promptly hit the boss with it. And with Corroded Rime Shank also hitting the boss, the only thing I lost was some extra EGO resources. Depending on your EGO, running all the way down to -45 might just be the call.

Roughly it’s an inconsistent adventure currently I’m expecting fairly heavy number tweaks for floor 5 But everything else appears to be relatively fine

Piece of Relationship got a solid rework, so now it gives +5/+7/+10 levels based on how high you've upgraded it. It should go without saying, but buffing the offence and defence levels of every sinner you're deploying by 10 when the final boss is level 60 really eases up the difficulty. I went from having level 35 and 40 sinners to level 50 and 55 because of an event giving +5 and Piece giving +10, which made MFE a joke despite how many buffs it had.

Yes I am eating any Esgoo content I can, I did clear my weekly dungeon and I didn't even realize the text at the bottom of every ego gift was a debuff (typical project moon player activity) so next week I will be paying actual attention to it lol Thank you again lord Esgoo for enlightening me

2:40 sometimes you are able to see small part of next node, it pretty rare and only happened once in my MD3Hard run, but it usefull to skim fog a bit.

Easiest route:ID with the first name starting with ring

I used a charge team for my hard MD run. I still experienced the second worst Limbus experience I’ve ever had in the game. My Floor 5 had a good amount of Pequod Towners with 30+ power skills when clashing. It gave me Faelantern at the end though, so we take the win. (Before you ask, my first worst experience was not getting Sis Don for like a week and a half after she appeared. That still haunts me, and I haven’t been the same since.)

Can you also do a video explaining the rest system for mirror dungeons. For those that don't know, the game now rewards players for having a more diverse set of Mirror Dungeon teams. Ideally you should have about 5 teams you cycle through to get the maximum amount of Starlight per run.

Note: According to quick math I did, it takes 166 Mirror Dungeon 3 Normal runs to max out every single buff if you optimise Starlight gain by making six teams with no duplicates. That’s 830 modules. Don’t. Just don’t. It genuinely isn’t worth it. Anyway tips, uh. Don’t take coin power buffs. If there is anything that will kill you instantly, it is those. Base power is better if you have to pick, so choose that if you have no other option. Mirror Dungeon 3 Hard is… well it is hard as stated here, yes, but I think a longer fight is easier to deal with than higher coin values. Evade-tanking is going to extend the fight by either way, so might as well pick the option that doesn’t require picking out units which you might not have built up yet. Will it be annoying to have an enemy with like 50% more HP? I mean sure, I guess, but if you aren’t running a Burn or Tremor team you can splice through that pretty easily. Status effects that inflict damage are busted, especially bleed which can nuke close to a thousand HP on a boss if you clash frequently (which hey, negates the thing entirely and makes picking higher offence level buffs objectively worse, so if you have Pequod and Hook Gregor… Poise + Bleed is busted as all heck). That’s about all I have tips wise. Good luck to all of you, and don’t use burn or tremor. They suck. If anyone masochistic enough was considering it, don’t, just please. Alright, that’s all from me. See y’all around.

I was just chilling politely until esgoo called me out from left field that if i dont consume every ounce of esgoo content as soon as i can, i will perish from lack of esgoo, a necessary nutrient nowadays. Anyways, fun vid! Tbh, i actually think MD2H was harder than MD3H is. Floor 5 boss is a joke now and no more 4 coin 26 clash power skills until *maybe* floor 5 if you didn’t plan correctly. I remember when md2h released and i got stuck and had to scrap multiple runs. And couldnt beat Bull multiple times. Maybe im just more knowledgeable, but in md3h, i beat it my first try running only the 3 Cinq IDs. Much more friendly and i could actually tank damage from a skill or 2 even on floor 4 and 5 without getting immediately staggered or killed turn 1 without using ego. Still very fun! Better than md2h in almost every way

That's crazy that he said burn in a sad state and outis need more id's and he want's liwei guy, and pm releases new burn effect with magic bullets on outis💀

Funny that you got Fae Lantern as the final boss there, _because I got Ambling Pearled on my first run_

So, I know I'm in the minority on this, but for me the rewards actually felt better, because I had a FAR easier time on md3h than on md2h, while also having a lot more fun. Md2h was something I dreaded playing so much I actually didn't get the rewards on one or two weeks because I couldn't bring myself to spend an hour suffering trough it, and on most runs I would quit before the last boss just so I didn't have to go through that slog, while on md3h I actually want to play more runs even without the rewards simply because I think it is fun.

Dodge is such a cheat code for MR Hard its so goodl

I accidently went into xp lux with a bunch of level 1 IDs after rolling and uptying but not levelling the Cinq, plus I hadn't levelled Don either. Evade is REALLY GOOD.

Only first starting buff and Lvl30 Sinking team. FIRST TRY BABY! Thanks for the tip!

In my first mirror dungeon hard run I ran a n-corp team with hook lu instead of n-clair since I don't have him, I ended up doing basically the opposite of everything said in the video, I took a bunch of really bad enemy buffs, namely a couple that increased defense level and one that halved the damage that enemies took, I also fought a couple of pierce encounters against pequod and the mermaids, and an encounter against the little brothers of the middle. The only reason I managed to win was thanks to wound clerid and pocket knife, with the game plan being to inflict a bunch of bleed one sidedly while n-faust and gubo mersault tanked, and then killing them by clashing with 3 or 4 coin skills, killing them from bleed before they got to attack me (thank God for abno fights and floor 5 having encounters with 4 enemies allowing me to attack one sidedly)

yooo there are branches to that starting buff nodes?? i didn't notice it at all lmao

honestly i love MD3H WAYYYY more than i do MD2H, and im not sure about it being harder to grind, ive found it much easier, if anything. the moment you get the merged gifts, it's totally over. especially bloody mist or the lucky pouch, those are so good it just makes the whole MD just winrate-able.

I'd like MD rewards that include tickets and threads. I know that'd probably make clearing daily Luxcavation runs redundant but I'm in such dire need of resources to level up Sinners. (Has nothing to do with not using resources correctly. What do you mean I shouldn't have Uptie IV'd Base Ishmael?)

Was so used to the characters being leveled to 40 in the normal dungeon that i took a avg lvl 30 rupture team into it and finally fell at floor 5 80% through, raging bull was a very interesting and intense fight with lvl 30 characters

My first and only run of MD3H so far began with a boss of Guido on Floor 1, and Siltcurrent on Floor 5. I didn't struggle very hard until the start of Floor 5, and by that point, I had to spam EGO like mad. Siltcurrent battered my team quite bad and I only made it out with one Sinner left alive. W. Yi-Sang is a champ.

Just farm normal MD3, it's gonna be faster, hard give more but way longer, not to mention the rest Starlight which make grinding MD3 worth more than the hard, the hard is easier than MD2H but takes longer since enemy are bullet sponges (+35% max HP from floor pick). It took me 30 minute to clear with my weakest comp for Normal, while the hard took 1 and half hour with my strongest comp (charge) not to mention the lucky ego drop I got (pretty much complete charge ego set)

As of right now my first MD3H run was a haste (or etleest just high speed) centered team becus i wanted to try the new cinq IDs, I had all 3 cinqs, hook office yi sang, rabbit heath and then just Zwei greg for some extra defence if needed and he can get some haste himself. My run wen't mostly very alright. as all my IDs where lvl 40 and uptie 4 (except cinq don) Intill i got to like flour 4 where i decided to go to a Pierce elite and get my ass almoost handed to me by the T corp boys and afther that everything in floor 5 also made me spend a good amount of my ego (thankfully i had a lot of ego gen gifts) And yea. i took all the Offence level buffs becus i genuinly did not know they effected clash power. i always thought it was just a general number to gauge how mutch damage they do, good to know for the future etleest and hey. i still beat the dungeon.

This one is lowkey easier than MD2H when it first release imo

MDH3 surely requires planning and team synergy. I just too lazy for that and go solo kong lu. Manage to beat MFE and luckily didn't get pierce or bleed stack node

Once more the fault lies with you Ishmael!!!

ESGOO best death row meal

Did my 1st hard mirror dungeon today with only the left side of the starting buff, it was hard and I only won the last boss fight by targeting the boss and letting the mobs hit my units. Perhaps it would have been easier if I had a proper team but I only used 5 sinners since I didn't have anyone else to add to the formation. Edit : the reward with weekly bonus is worth it though, that was like 6 level in the BP instantly.

I went into MD3H with the intent of doing a burn team. I only realized afterwards that I only had most of my Liu identities at Lvl 30. Despite this, it wasn't actually that bad at all. The only issue I ran into was Faelantern purging my debuffs every time it swapped phases.

You could choose random gift until you get blue zipper. Well at least I did that.

It would be great to have a 50% to give you a random id (similar to normal extract) only if you complete all floors, its a pretty nice add on for content thats pretty hard

Well i should watch this before i done my MD3H since i just spam EGO on floor 5 and the human fights for some reason is harder than the boss itself

I feal so sick today... Damn you ismael!

I've done about 15-20 hard mode runs netting about 270-280 starlight per run, and I have to say, the most important aspect of trivializing hard mode runs is: 1. don't stack EGO gifts that increase enemy power, ideally try to go for more damage dealt/HP% and 2. Unlock the archetype-exclusive EGO gifts as soon as possible and before you go into a run, reset and reset until you get the 2 necessary ones that merge before the floor 1 boss to trivialize the rest of the run. But to be safe, avoid risky encounters on floor 5 and aim for risky encounters to increase EGO gift encounter chance. Have you ever seen a 29 power Cloud Cutter? How about a 41 power Opportunistic Slash? 3. To maximize your time in the dungeon, build 6 teams all surrounding an archetype to activate these super secret merge-exclusive EGO gifts. If yall want spoilers I can write a list. Regardless, make 6 teams each. Tremor is the most lackluster with its gift in my opinion. (Tremor Burst 3 times to instantly stagger **once per battle**) Sinking and Bleed are my absolute favorites, the former 2-turning Skin Prophecy and Drifting Fox. Poise, Charge, Sinking, Rupture, Bleed, and Burn. Use all unique IDs when building your teams while focusing on the 6 you will bring inside. Sinking is the trickiest because there are not 5 good Sinking IDs-- Suncliff is also a joke, and so you need to uptie Jefe Sinclair and Base Hong Lu instead. Burn is difficult, but it still is good enough to get you to the end. I have an extreme amount of experience in the MD3H, and you did bring up plenty of points I agree with! Twitter for chatting?

@@therealESGOO I’ll have to make a good poise team with him then. I figure the other cinq members would be good choices. I am unsure if I should take the Pequod or BL yi sang.

I was being absolutely fucking tortured by a pequod town elite node, and I was so happy when I finally beat it... *Then I saw wave 2*

Sinking gaming is fun

Honestly, this MDH doesn't feel to different from the last one in my experience, but my experience is exclusively limited to solo Korp Hong Lu. Most of the the clash and damage associated enemy buffs don't do much as the gifts associated often outweigh the debuffs. Any applicable gifts often have a much more pronounced effect due to the nature of having only one unit. HP management is almost negligible, with the only real managing being related to the stagger threshold. Dimension Shredder uptie 4 is kinda required however. It provides excellent haste, fragile, and rupture count, with the ladder being his main source of damage against the later stage bosses, and since he has excellent survivability, he can go unopposed in focused encounters, reinforcing the negligibly of enemy buffs and the prominence of his rupture damage. Of course in the first few stages he needs a few teammates to get the resources required for his support buffs, but after that he is entirely self-sufficient fueling Dimension Shredder. The addition of extra waves in the final floor is actually a buff in his case too, as a lot of the main problems come from a lack of skill slots on early rounds. By EGO spamming the first wave and using regular skills on the second, you stay recourse neutral in most cases. Easily the worst enemies are N Corp and the Crabs, but I haven't encountered T Corp yet or Pequod. My first run was a breeze, with my final boss being the Ambling Pearl. The hardest part being floor four, having similar difficulty to five without the added waves to compensate for the huge EGO spam. Of course I could have just been lucky this time, but only time will tell for me.

If you're interested my supports are: Yi Sang- Seven Association. W corp is just extra damage, which can be nice, but I feel that the extra clash can come in handy against some human encounters that undermine your clash. Debuts are your worst nightmare in a solo run. Same could be said for others and base just sabotages you when trying to corrode. Faust- Base. Zwei is res based and tbh idk why I don't use regret. Don- Cing. If you think 25 cost is worth it go base or smth idek for bon. Ryoshu- Seven Association. Just don't go base, but Seven provides the most tangible buff. If you want +15 hp go ahead and use chef. Meru- Base. Required. Heath- Seven Association. Idk go base for S2 ig? I don't see a big difference either way. Ish- Base. Idek what to say for the other identities. Rodion- Dieci. S2 is your main skill as it is the most plentiful while being good damage, good clash, and good healing with 10+ rupture. Sinclair- Zwei. Required. Outis- Preferably G Corp, 'cause protection and clash power. Greggor- Zwei. The damage resistance is surprisingly noticeable. 5 hp per turn or on clash win isn't nearly as good in comparison to the hp you're not taking. Overall I do think supports help out a lot but are not necessary(Except Meru and Sinclair) when it comes to a run. The most influential aspect is still having a maxed out Korp and Dimension Shredder, and good gifts.

Did the my first run, without all starter buffs active, and two characters at level 30. I'm at floor 5 with no deaths, but man this painful

My first clear was tremor team with f@#ing bell. First time in my play time, that I apply 9 weakness.

it was an ok time for i went and switched sinners during the run to get everyone 45 sanity which wasnt needed,beat it with only 2 starlight buffs

Nails team video when

haha funny me, which took enemies take -10% damage, deal +50% dmg and take -50% dmg, base skill + 1, final power + 1, + 5 offense and a lot of +4 level ups, cause, silly me, took all the good ego gifts but didnt care about the debuffs, and me, a tremor lover, was literally crying, of fricking 5 damage on a staggered enemy. But after all of that, i finished it, with all my team alive :3

Dude I had an encounter with the god damn crabs on floor 5. Idk what it was but they just couldn't be killed it seemed like they took 50% less damage while dealing 50% more and even with sunshower and blind obsession spam they would not die.

Man I really wanted my first run to be a solo with the new Cinqlair but I got stopped on floor 4 by an elite N Corp node RIP. It didn't matter if he could clash bc their offense level was so high if they ever connected he instantly got staggered and nuked the next turn T_T

Does hard mode give more Starlight than the normal MD3, or was that extra starlight just from using the weekly bonuses?

I think it gives 1.5 bonus to starlight regardless of the weekly bonus.

It give more ... But not time efficient to grind on hard... Except you wanted the brainrot of hard md then .... Im not holding you lol

Greed is good Never skip a build crutial ego gift because it has a worse debuff Pure charge is good but properly build sinking,rupture or poise/charge will get skills on bosses much faster

Prioritize choosing the debuffs above all else. You can pretty much make any team work once you understand that. Hell, I’ve yet to lose with my poise team and I only have 3 starter buffs

charge team goes brrrrrrrrr (i just cleared my hmd)

Hi ESGOO :D

Oh wow, i did everything right just to get denied from F5 Blind Obsession which has forced Paralyse on turn 2 and 5 18+ rolls every turn. Cool.

Yeah, the Pequod Harpooners and T-Corp soldiers fight is Stupidly hard!!!!!

"do not accept defeat" i see no problem >corroded sunshower x2 kills my entire seven assoc team

erm esgoo why don’t you have new MD guides up already smh it’s been a day already /j
