100a is an off-meta tactic used by [[Guild:TFZ|TFZ]] in [[DoA]]. Before there was Hundred Blades (100b), there was 100a, where 4 rangers spam multiple bow attacks over and over to kill all the enemies in DoA. We believe subcon is possible but our best run to date remains just off the pace at 31.

The goal isn't to go for time, but rather to have fun by using Ranger spikers with actual bows. These builds purposefully do not use MoP (the primary damage skill in [[DoA_Ignition_Remix]]) as this was considered too OP and cheating to be as fun and off-meta as was desired. The splits and tactics are moderately different to meta and single tank tactics so someone with experience and voice communication is essential to ensure the team is co-ordinated well.

The general idea is for the Ritualist to provide splinter before each spike and cast Panic>Cry of Pain>Lamentation to shutdown the enemies and get everything below 90% to proc EoE. Meanwhile, the Rangers are spamming 100a to kill enemies. Sundering and Penetrating Attack allows for strong cleanup and because you are Rangers with Together As One, you are surprisingly tanky.

== differences from meta 3-3 ==
 +
Although most of the builds are different, the tactics are largely based on standard [[DoA 3-3|3-3]]. For anyone familiar with 3-3, it's quicker to list the differences than to explain the 100a tactics from scratch.
 +
 
 +
=== Veil ===
 +
* All rangers wall for all spikes, and start attacking as soon as the enemies are in range.
 +
 
 +
=== Gloom ===
 +
* Only catch waves 4 and 8.
  
 
=== Foundry ===
 
=== Foundry ===
−
* Room 1+2: as per meta.
+
* Room 3: Tank pulls the titan groups whilst the team can work on the Dryders/Dream Rider solo.
−
* Room 3: Tank pulls the titan groups whilst the team can work on the Dryders/Dream Rider solo. Rock pull the titans with a good Right Wall Block.
+
* Room 5: There is no split so TK will take 3rd snake, requiring the tank to pull enemies out of the way and the team to break aggro of the spawn by running south, past the Black Beast gate.
−
* Room 4: 3-3 pull to the corner at the start of the room.
+
* Fury: Barragers and Rit run towards City, where they need to re-place their spirits so that the old ones die. TTaO will pull the Fury group, with a speedboost into Cave and you can kill the enemies as they come in.
−
* Room 5: FW takes first and second snake and the EoE pings. There is no split so TK will take 3rd snake, requiring the tank to pull enemies out of the way and the team tobreak aggro of the spawn by running back past the black beast spawn.
 
−
* Black Beast: No differences.
 
−
* Fury: the EMo should stay by the wall and take the quest. Barragers and Rit runs towards City. TTaOK will pull the Fury group, with a speedboost into Cave and you can kill the dream riders first, followed by the Eles and Kis in separate balls.
 
  
 
=== City ===
 
=== City ===
−
* First Outer: TTaOK hits the first Su on the wall. Rest spike.
+
On all spikes, wait for the rit to cast Panic.
−
* Wall: Rangers spam sword attacks on the wall with GDW. Leave the last Mank alive.
+
* Wall: Rangers spam sword attacks on the wall with GDW. Leave the last Mank alive, and finish it when the spike is done and the tank is ready to HoS over.
−
* Second Outer: Wait for the Rit to call and let him/her lead the spike to ensure EoE procs. Finish the wall once the Ranger is in position.
+
** If any of the enemies spawn out of melee range, leave them until last, and then try to pull them into range.
−
* First inner: Do the TT side first. Once enemies are out of the way, the team can HoS/jump to the usual spike spot for better elevation.
+
* First inner: Do the TT side first. Once enemies are out of the way, the team can jump up the cliff to spike from above for better elevation
−
* Second inner: TT recalls EMo (if not already up) and EMo runs to the start of City to get to Jadoth quicker. Rangers should spike from down below to ensure you aren't obstructed.
+
* Second inner: Rangers should spike from down below to ensure you aren't obstructed.
 
* Jadoth: Pulled inside City (no Veil split).
 
* Jadoth: Pulled inside City (no Veil split).
−
 
−
=== Veil ===
 
−
* 360: All rangers wall all waves and hit stuff as early as possible.
 
−
* Derv Lord: TTaOK will pull Derv lord. Recall target is the Rit and the Winnowing also goes to kill the lord. During this time, check the Monk Lord spawn - the information will be useful later.
 
−
* Ranger Lord: Everyone else goes ranger lord - remember there is no YMLaD on the Tank so he will break late.
 
−
* Trenchs: Use the Mesmer Lord Glitch Spot. Ranger Lord Rangers go to the Glitch Spot. TTaOK pops the Monk Trench and pulls the back group. Winnowing pops gloom trench and pulls back group. Rit pulls both front groups of Monk and Gloom Trench. Meanwhile the Tank pops Mesmer Trench and uses SoH in the trench to get back in quicker. EMo runs up the hill and EEs to the Tank in the trench when it is safe to do so. Kill stuff in the glitch spot and the tormentor on the hill. Remember to place spirits behind the glitch spot so they dont die to flash enchantments.
 
−
* Clover: As normal. Ensure Rangers arent obstructed.
 
−
* Lords: Winnowing and Honor go straight to Monk Lord if a Hunger pop is not required. Recall pull and kill the Lord. Tank pulls Necro lord. If the Monk Lord spawn needs a Hunger pop, these roles should be reversed. Meanwhile, the rest of the team kills Ele Lord Patrol. TTaOK and EMo kill the Ele lord like normal whilst the Rit, EoE and FW kill necro lord.
 
−
* First 3:3: TTaOK and the Tank kill the IAU tendrils whilst the FW kills the front tendril.
 
−
* Second 3:3: Tank runs to Gloom and skips second 3:3 Meanwhile and TTaOK and Winnowing kill the back tendrils and TTaOK pulls the enemies in.
 
−
 
−
=== Gloom ===
 
−
* Entrance: TTaOK takes quest. No one triggers the front group. the TTaOK can hos up and everyone has a jump. Kill the Mind Tormentor group in the way of your run to cave and catch/kill waves 4 and 8.
 
−
* Cave: Winnowing recalls the EMo and EMo stands towards Rift. During the Spike, the TT casts Recall on the Winnowing and that team go to Rift. Meanwhile the Rit can be a recall target for the TTaOK as he takes quest from Cave and does quest running.
 
−
* Deathbringer: Spike as normal.
 
−
* Darknesses: Pull to the wall like in meta 3-3 tactics.

100a is an off-meta tactic used by TFZ in Domain of Anguish. Before there was Hundred Blades (100b), there was 100a, where 4 rangers spam multiple bow attacks over and over to kill all the enemies in DoA. We believe subcon is possible but our best run to date remains just off the pace at 31.

The goal isn't to go for time, but rather to have fun by using Ranger spikers with actual bows. These builds purposefully do not use MoP (the primary damage skill in DoA Ignition Remix) as this was considered too OP and cheating to be as fun and off-meta as was desired. The splits and tactics are moderately different to meta and single tank tactics so someone with experience and voice communication is essential to ensure the team is co-ordinated well.

The general idea is for the Ritualist to provide splinter before each spike and cast Panic>Cry of Pain>Lamentation to shutdown the enemies and get everything below 90% to proc EoE. Meanwhile, the Rangers are spamming 100a to kill enemies. Sundering and Penetrating Attack allows for strong cleanup and because you are Rangers with Together As One, you are surprisingly tanky.

Like all our off-meta tactics, if you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to discuss with us in our TFZ Discord Server :).

differences from meta 3-3

Although most of the builds are different, the tactics are largely based on standard 3-3. For anyone familiar with 3-3, it's quicker to list the differences than to explain the 100a tactics from scratch.

Veil

  • All rangers wall for all spikes, and start attacking as soon as the enemies are in range.

Gloom

  • Only catch waves 4 and 8.

Foundry

  • Room 3: Tank pulls the titan groups whilst the team can work on the Dryders/Dream Rider solo.
  • Room 5: There is no split so TK will take 3rd snake, requiring the tank to pull enemies out of the way and the team to break aggro of the spawn by running south, past the Black Beast gate.
  • Fury: Barragers and Rit run towards City, where they need to re-place their spirits so that the old ones die. TTaO will pull the Fury group, with a speedboost into Cave and you can kill the enemies as they come in.

City

On all spikes, wait for the rit to cast Panic.

  • Wall: Rangers spam sword attacks on the wall with GDW. Leave the last Mank alive, and finish it when the spike is done and the tank is ready to HoS over.
    • If any of the enemies spawn out of melee range, leave them until last, and then try to pull them into range.
  • First inner: Do the TT side first. Once enemies are out of the way, the team can jump up the cliff to spike from above for better elevation
  • Second inner: Rangers should spike from down below to ensure you aren't obstructed.
  • Jadoth: Pulled inside City (no Veil split).

Tank

Build

Assassin/Warrior Tank
Shadow Form Shroud of Distress Death's Charge Heart of Shadow I Am Unstoppable Dark Escape Shadow of Haste Recall
Shadow: 12+3+1, Tactics: 9, Dagger: 9, CS: 3
OwFk8xdZVOOkOzBEuDCENZDUoTnD

Make sure you reach the requirement of your shield (taking into account weakness) and invest the rest of the points in Dagger mastery and Critical Strikes for Foundry Rooms.

Equipment

standard tank equipment

Role

You are the only tank so ensure you are aware of the differences in single tank tactics when playing this role. You will be doing all the MT's pulls, as well as some of the TT's. Remember you don't have seed so be careful and plan your Ranger Lord and Clover pulls.

Veil

  • Pop Mes Trench, cast SoH, and DC up to a tormentor to avoid aggroing the patrols. Stance back in, let the EMo jump to you and begin the Clover pull when the team have almost finished spiking the groups in the glitch spot.
  • If monk lord spawn is bad, go and pull that out and kill it together with the Honor. If monk lord spawn is good, pull necro lord, and then do the top tendrils with the TK.
  • After the first tendrils spike, go straight to Gloom.

Gloom

  • Do Cave and Recall the TK during the spike to get a Recall chain to rift

Foundry

  • In 3rd room, pull the titans against the rock for a strong wall block.
  • In 5th room, pull the enemies away from Captain Valkyss, so the TTaO can freely take it.

City

  • Left side of inside City first then Right side. Recall the emo to get to Jadoth faster.

TTaO

Build

Ranger/Assassin TTaO
Volley Sundering Attack Penetrating Attack Heart of Shadow I Am Unstoppable Together as One You Move Like a Dwarf Recall

Equipment

  • Zealous Flatbow (of Demonslaying is ideal if you can find one)
  • Anniversary Sword for the wall (otherwise daggers)
  • Shield Set for tanking and pulling

Role

Veil

  • Pull TT side waves
  • Pull Derv Lord - Recall target is the Ritualist
  • After Derv Lord, pop the Monk Lord Trench and pull the back group to the Mes trench glitch spot
  • After clover, if the monk lord spawn is good enough that you don't need Shadow Form, go with the Honor to kill it. If monk lord spawn is too bad, pull the necro lord, help kill it, and then do the top tendrils with the TK.
  • Do the bottom tendrils with the TK.

Gloom

  • Take the quest and HoS up the cliff
  • After Cave spike, Recall the Honor and take the quest when the MT is ready. Recall out and quest run. Help on Darknesses if you are in time.

Foundry

  • In 3rd room, pull Dryder/Dream Rider wave to the team
  • Use Recall to take Silzesh
  • Take Captain and Recall out immediately so Recall can't get mirrored
  • Pull Black Beast
  • Pull Fury into the Cave when everyone is ready - run forward with a speed boost

  • After Derv Lord, run into the Gloom Trench and pull the back group into the Mes Lord glitch spot
  • At tendrils, kill the top set first.

Gloom

  • Recall the EMo before the Cave spike, and allow the tank to recall you. Recall out once the cave spike is complete and cap rift.

Foundry

  • After clover, go to kill monk lord

You take General

Build

Ranger/Assassin FW
Barrage Sundering Attack Penetrating Attack Asuran Scan I Am the Strongest You Move Like a Dwarf Favorable Winds Death's Retreat

Equipment

  • Zealous Flatbow (of Demonslaying is ideal if you can find one)
  • Anniversary Sword for the wall (otherwise daggers)
  • Shield Set for tanking and pulling

Role

This role is most similar to Empathy in 3-3, except that you don't tank Black Beast, and are also responsible for off damage.

OAWkIkgjITm0SAGzqINAdJzEljNI

Equipment

  • 40/40 Channeling Set
  • +30/-2 High Energy Channeling Magic Set
  • Flatbow for any necessary pulling

Role

This role is most similar to Backfire in 3-3, but as there is no trench tank, you will not be going to monk lord or doing any of the duo splits. You are also the caller, as it is your responsibility to lead each spike with Panic, followed by Cry of Pain and Lamentation.

  • Give Splinter Weapon to the rangers before each spike, using Arcane Echo for the last 2.
  • After using your spike skills, reapply Splinter Weapon.
  • For small groups, use Great Dwarf Weapon instead.
  • Spam Spirit Siphon on spirits for energy management and request the team to put new spirits if you need further energy.

Veil

  • On derv hill, check the monk lord spawn and tell the team whether or not the TTaO should be able to cleanly pull it without Shadow Form.
  • After Derv Lord, pull the front groups of Gloom into the Mes trench glitch spot

Gloom

  • Save Panic for 3rd wave of Darknesses

Foundry

Equipment

standard emo equipment

Role

Your job is essentially the same as meta tactics, but you will find it more challenging as there is no seed so you need to heal lots, with no additional enchantments for your energy management.

Veil

After ranger hill, go to the glitch spot west of the mesmer lord trench. Once the rangers are in place, EE down to the tank so you can stay in range for clover.

Foundry

  • Ping for Snakes once General is free
  • Take Fury and stay in range of the MT whilst the rest of the team kills Fury
