Garden of Fear strategies

[Peppoah]

I autofarm level X in about 2 minutes with a team of:
Aces High
MUR
Magus Lilith
PDK
Best time was 1:37
Aces High is great for bringing down the shield with his fury.
Win rate is 100%

What talismans do they have?

What talismans do they have?

Checking his profile (Pepp-7418), the talismans are:

Aces High: Chance, Immunity, rando red
Magus Lilith: Destiny, Immunity
PDK: Paladin, Paladin, Warp
Magus Undead Rescuer: Holy, Holy, Life

The blue ones are mostly Arcane, but should be Power 'cause you want DEF instead of MR in Garden of Fear. But the success rate is 100%, so I guess it doesn't matter.

I gave Peppoah's team a test run using the following Talismans:

Aces High: Boost, Boost, Strength
Magus Lilith: Destiny, Immunity
Pharaoh Dog King: Paladin, Paladin, Health
Magus Undead Rescuer: Endure, Life, rando green

It worked as advertised. Victory in 2:37 and nobody came close to dying. The Fury meter builds up quickly enough that Aces High Eddie is chucking bottles every turn against the Dragon King. I recommend having Magus Lilith as your first toon in the list so she'll keep the Immunity up every turn.

Thanks Fudjo, for taking the time to answer. I was out today and just came home to see that people wanted to know my talisman setup. You’re right that power would be the better choice for the magus talismans, but I had them in my inventory and didn’t care about changing them, because they worked. Most people use AH with echo, but I always had him with chance and immunity for HP and special. As you saw, he’s always throwing his bottles against the DK and brings down the shield quick. I tried navigator and tailgunner, but he’s my first choice.

Guess the Talis
Record was also done with this team, Pharaoh is irrelevant

OK, so for teams without a heap of rare chars and/or talismans, any advice?

This is the hardest one for me to be able to auto on X. I had a team that I've been using on VIII and very slow on IX - IE, Lady Azov, AoF & Eda. Though my Eda is 4* still (dont ask, got over excited in sacathon), so she tends to die sometimes (always on X) and when she goes I've got no cleanse for stun and then the team goes.

I just got the Madame and tried her, where I now have some success on X, now using IE (heals/bombs/bleeds), Azov (damage, even when reduced!), Gunner Dog (for the 1st shield), Madame (cleanse). Anyway, the main issue is that the gunner dog can get revenged out early if it gets a heap of repeats (kinda lol). Actually no, the main issue is that its a 9 minute wait for it to finish!

Anyone able to give me any tips on what I could do using more common chars?

Esquatcho, you are kind of limited on not having any of the OP 6 set talisman. Your Hallowed Eddie can be very powerful against the dragon king in GoF. If you could shard your golden Pharoah dog he is quite useful for immunity, healing and cleansing, especially if you had angel or invisibility talisman. It would be useful to acquire a couple of sets of energy talisman. The golden Pharoah dog is a partial blocker by reducing damage by 35%.

What team are you using in farming for gold in the cosmos?
