Tactics specific to IT Tactics
- MT balls the Dryder group in 4'th room, and the team pushes to the far corner while killing it.
- VoR takes both 1st and 2nd snakes.
- Memo pings for Snakes, but Emo takes the reward.
- Emo takes the quest reward in city, after being recalled by the MT.
- On 360, Emo walls waves 1, 2 and 5; TT walls wave 3 and 4; IAU walls wave 6.
- Memo helps with offdamage at 360 and elsewhere as needed.
- IAU splits off with the MT after clover to help pull necro lord.
- Memo can kill the MLK tendril, if the MLK is busy.
- IAU goes to cap rift; Memo or MLK (whichever didn't pop tengus) provides the target for Recall trick.
- Mesmers should kill the last two spawns of the cave quest in order to speed up the ball.
- This teambuild can opt into running City split tactics.
Optionals
Tanks
- Dark Escape on Trench Tank.
VoR
Memo
Pros
- The teambuild is capable of a very fast casual run. The extra spiker makes it easier for experienced teams to achieve fast times.
- Everyone has a Shadow step, which makes transitions faster and easier.
Cons
- The builds require experienced players on almost every role.
- No UA or Seed of Life means players are punished harder for mistakes.
- The MT needs to be able to do Jadoth and Ranger without Seed of Life.
- Emo is under a lot more pressure without enchantment support from the monk.
- Edge of Extinction on VoR means they will be late for some spikes.
