How We're Gonna do ThisI will guide you through all of the Shallow Seas and EB on Easy. The minimum CL you must be for this is 8.0 (Determined by dev's, not me. xD).
Bara Requests...Your full attention. Nothing irks me more than a distracted crew member *cough*Silk*cough*.
Patience. Many a crew has failed because some guy got sick of waiting to get to EB and left. Or someone keeps dieing and he didn't think the crew could ever succeed. But that's more a lack of faith. P:
Rings to BringI suggest the following build: hack, 1 long-range, 1 aoe, 2 heals(Defib counts as a heal in my book), and leave 2 slots for buffs. We'll do a buff check beforehand so don't worry about having ALL the rings. P:
This is the link to a decent guide for beginners. It doesn't include
everything. It hasn't been updated to include to changes made in March. It also leaves out that you must kill the queen's upper-council as well(Aglaope & Raidne).
Queen&Friends Get Pimped OutIn March of this year, the shallow seas was updated to make completing ss/eb more difficult. If you do not clear enough in the Shallow Seas Area, the queen will be an impossible-to-beat CL (it changes based on difficulty and your crew's CL). If you do not clear enough in the Undersea Ledge Area, the Sub-Commander will be an impossible-to-beat CL. If you do not clear enough in the Sealab Compound, the fail mobs will be an impossible-to-beat CL. By "fail mob," I mean the seacycle mobs that come out when clicking the switches fails.
The NerfNew Nerf! xD You can make 30k then you only receive 20%. That is unless, you buy a Gold Potion. You can also gain a Potion by gaining donator status. It has come to my attention that you must buy ONE item priced at 249GC. Then you must go to account>GC Purchases & Disable Ads.
It resets
once per day. There are all sorts of rumors of how often/what time the nerf resets. Once per day @ 0:00:00 GMT is the facts. In PST, that's 5PM. EST, it's 8PM.
In SS/EB, you can usually make around 50k. When you're nerfed, that's about 20k. [/mathgeek]
Here is the official sticky on the matter.
Handy Dandy Shortcutsk = sit/stand
q, ~, ` = autotarget
1-8 = your rings
Space-key = target yourself
F5 = refresh. Click on the webadress and press F5 to refresh zOMG. Make sure you know what server you're in, first. o; (If you bought superchargers or something on the mp, you can make them appear by clicking on shop>refresh.)
g = GO, auto-targets anything and brings you to 'em (I like to refer to this as "Marshalling" LOL)
/stuck = Get's you unstuck. It'll send you to the Null Chamber, though. (A tip, don't use this command if you're dazed, too. No one wants to be dazed in null.)
/invite = Invite people from wherever! Make sure there's a space between invite and the username, though. (Currently broken)
Also, I find it helpful to use shortcuts for crewmates. You need to assign these on your own by going to option>shortcuts. I like A-E. P:
