While we hoped it would GGG has announced that Trials will not be going core and over time Tattoos will become more scarce.

With this news the price of Tattoos and all things TOTA has spiked out of control and I wanted to give you guys a way to go farm them for yourself before they are gone forever!

Big shoutout to my friend @BikespokesARPG for the following tips and tricks.

POB - https://pobb.in/hKZufXaupyYI

----------
when beginning a round, cast 1 void sphere and 1 petrify. then ensnaring arrow once to proc mirage archer.

proc mirage archer again whenever its down, same goes for void sphere.

use your 2nd charge of petrify once the boss is the only thing left standing to freeze them while u take their totem
-----------
avoid fighting ikiaho and utula unless you have to or they offer the best rewards since they have ground degen that cant be prevented and will insta kill you. still very winnable and easy just takes longer.

glance your opponent for stupid turtly guy that makes totems invincible before the round starts and go for those totems first. if no stupid turtly guys exist then follow this order of totem takeover operations: flankers first, defenders 2nd, attackers 3rd, escort 4th, boss 5th.

fill your side of the board: attackers first, always have at least 1 defender every round. fill your flankers 2nd then escort 3rd, defenders last

dont read or buy items, its a waste of time, focus on buying units. dont bother with idols either.

----------------

never fight ahuana unless shes the only opponent left or shes offering irrefutable rewards for the highest chance at +1 proj tattoos. similar vibe for rakiata to get rakiatas dance but that is a lot less vital and not a priority.

dont waste time rerolling end of tournament rewards unless you're already 2k rank or they legit offer 1 alch unique junk, its more important to save time and get in the next tournament as fast as possible

tldr:

Best attacker: caldera ravager
Best Flanker: Sunset Sage
Best Defender: Spear Dancer
Best Escort: Mystic Prophet

honorable mentions:

Attackers: Jade Hulk, Hinekoras Horn
Flankers: Thunderbird, Camoflage Tuatara
Defenders: Fieldmaster, Tidecaller
Escorts: The Boar Shitters
