Hi GMCnight! I agree it is pretty challenging, but we have overcome harder ones before. There are quite a lot of youtube videos that teaches you how to beat it. Some builds include the use of a curse team such as Ukon, Kimimaro with the addition of Kabuto.

I know you can do it!

Make a team for SA if u cant beat it.

its actually pretty easy in a team, you can even auto it, ninjas will die but you should be able to push through if you have equal levels or 2 strong groupmates to carry. Its only challenging if you decide you want to solo it, so I feel this caters for both crowds; those that want to challenge themselves (compared to the joke of a SA we just had in Yagura), and those that feel they just want the rewards and auto it 6x with friends.

Main issue with this SA (on hard mode) is the sheer amount of power required. Unlike previous SAs, where using normally obscure ninjas, or specific strategies would allow lower level players to defeat hard mode at much lower power than otherwise... this SA is flat out impossible for the lower level players. Be it a lvl 65 at 20k power, or a level 80 at 35k power; you basically cannot beat this SA on hard mode.

All the strategies posted, including ones I found on chinese forums, requires much higher power than many players have. A lvl 65 at 35k pow can beat it.. but you ain't getting anywhere near that power without a few months of level freezing, or spending heavily. For a lvl 80, you need about 40k pow to beat it without being a massive rng lottery...

Meanwhile, the other SAs on hard can be beaten at 20k pow at lvl 65.... (or for hanzo's case, 14k with water) This post was last edited by IamAscrub at 2017-6-20 09:47

SA are rotated every once in a while, so it won't always be hard. You can do in teams as suggested above as well.

"Say bye bye to your Medium Thread/Cloth for a month." :lol

The main issue about this SA is that it was supposed to be available in 3.0 only where hard mode drop advanced threads and normal mode drops only medium threads, so is a deliberate choice by the chinese developers that is not beatable with low power, because at low power you don't need at all advanced threads so, if you still need them, you are supposed to just go for normal mode. Oasis rushed things with the outcome that now is harder to get medium threads for f2p people.

Who said that SA was for 3.0? On german server they had this SA since beginning of 2.0 since 8 month. Noone complained about it. Where do you got that information? The SA's germany got right now (3.0) are different once and a lot harder. Regardless of that they don't drop advance thread. Maybe you are talking about later patches? ( I am assuming china and german patches are not that much different in this regard)

Something else, this SA is made to bee done as a team of 2 or 3 ppl or be challening solo. If you compare it to Hanzo where doing it solo was a lot easier than in a team of 3.

be cool if you can not win you should to change your team

It's a challenge :), just keep trying and you will be able to solo it. It took me many times to solo hanzo sa difficult, but I kept trying and now that sa is really easy for me. So trying akes it better.

German version is just a supplied version like our one. The development is in china and you have to look at how the balancement was in china to look at how the things are supposed to be. The fact that germany got it earlier exactly like us doesn't change the fact the chinese developers made it this way for the reason i said. Germany simply rushed things like English version, getting our same outcome. If you want medium threads you are supposed to do normal version of itachi entrustment, but in our version of the game normal version drops half of the times common threads. And yes in team of two is easier (in 3 not at all), but only if the difference in level is not wide and if the strongest person among the team is way overpowered for his level. Two level 70 at 25k power don't beat that sa in hard mode, while they beat easily all the other 3.

german since 3.0 he drop advance thread in sa you are wrong

This is the easist SA I've ever seen. Just run it in team with atleast 2 blitz teams. :lol

They don't. I play on german server. I do SA on difficult with mutiple accounts weekly. I nor any of my server players got any advance thread. Furthermore there are threads about this in german forum. Asking the moderator if it is a joke that the picture showing advance thread as a reward. It is either a bug or it will be added later but it doesn't drop right now.
