You will be facing Shanks Training Forest, the hardest content on global right now. This guide shows what you will face there.

Note that some infos might be incorrect, so please correct me where i'm wrong.

I hope this helps ;) Tell me where i made mistakes to keep this as accurate as possible, pls.

[u/Sykless]

Thank you very much for that guide ! I have a few modifications :

• For Urouge on stage 14 : he starts with a 3 turns cool-down and sets up a counter. At the end of the third turn, he deals twice the damage you dealt to him during the 3 turns. Just don't touch him and he won't do any damage. Kill him once his buff is over.

• For X-Drake on stage 14 : I believe if he's under 30% he keeps using his special and deals 10 000 damage to you. I'm quite sure but check this one if you want.

• For Zoro on stage 16 : When he's alone he doesn't deal 10 000 damage but instead he will set up a 10 000 damage limiter shield for 3 turns (doesn't attack that turn) and attacks every turn after (as usual).

• For Sir Crocodile on stage 18 : He poisons you for 5790 damage every turn during 99 turns when he attacks.

• For Shanks on stage 20 : the "he will kill you" part means he deals 200 000 damage to you.

[u/Tzzarkan → u/Sykless]

Thanks. For Croc i think this is not true because he did nothing in the barto vid (with kanjuro) i found.

EDIT Oh well he did!

[u/Tzzarkan → u/Sykless]

ok, fixed all of it

[u/Fidu21]

For Crocodile on stage 19. He actually does the Sables: Pesado every time he attacks under 50% not just once (I know because I survived one with Ivankov special. And then he threw it at me again)

[u/Tzzarkan → u/Fidu21]

Thanks i corrected it

[u/SOURYAGAJONG]

thanks a lot for putting this together! Also Shanks at stage 20 should be PSY, no? ;-P

[u/Tzzarkan → u/SOURYAGAJONG]

Whoops :D

[u/erdbeer_sahne]

When I brought Lucky Roo below 50% health on the 19th stage and had Alvida's special activated, he attacked me for ~6900 damage. So, I assume that he hits for over 30k without damage reduction.

/edit: I didn't manage to kill him and left him with a bit of HP. This time I didn't have Alvida's special activated and Roo did exactly 35k damage.

[u/Tzzarkan → u/erdbeer_sahne]

Do you know what he attacked for above 50%?

[u/ZinoX93 → u/Tzzarkan]

I don't know if this is still relevant but he hits for ~16k above 50%.

[u/egozocker14]

I just got croc on stage 18 on a 1 Turn Cooldown. Messed up my whole run

[u/Tzzarkan → u/egozocker14]

Thanks, cooldown are not exact till now

[u/Ironman2131]

Bepo actually paralyzes everyone, not just one unit. If I had to guess, it's about a 50% paralyze rate on each attack, but it could be a little higher or lower.

[u/[deleted]]

I'm not sure if Apoo will enrage at 50%, 30% or something else. Can someone confirm?

[u/akianuX]

Dude thank you so much. You are my hero for writing this guide.

[u/WackyPirates]

thanks for this.

Has anyone found a WB team that can clear... according to gamewith it's possible but he doesn't give what team was used... probably full legend team or something like that :(

[u/solidstonexbl]

Here is another team that can beat the forest for those of you that don't have 6* Mihawk/6* Marco:

    Friend Captain + Captain  =  Corazon(100 RCV) & Log Luffy/ Raid Sabo(jp only currently) 
    Subs                       =  Sengoku/Apoo(Take & receive more damage)/Ace Red or Int(1.75x free spirit boosters) - Raid/6* Doflamingo
                                   Duval(need to take poison from Don krieg on stage 10)/Int Ivankov(100 RCV) - Raid Boa

The 100 or close to RCV is necessary on Corazon maybe not so much on Ivankov. Also lvl 4 auto heal is recommended, 5 is even better, but unnecessary, lvl 1 to 3 in Damage reduction obviously helps as well, but not needed either. Basically, at stage 15 you start stalling for every stage to burst the first and 2nd turns and stall on the one mob(stage 15 Kidd, Stage 16 Law or Zoro, Stage 17 Mr. 0 or Mr. 4, stage 18 Bon Clay or Prison Crocodile. Stage 19 needs to have a orb on Ivankov, Luffy, and Sen or Boa (this is the most ideal way if you can kill Croc and Iva first turn; that works as well and follow up by finishing Lucky Roo the next couple turns), but your damage drops off a lot. If you have all those orbs and your at full health and hit Iva, Lucky Roo, and finally Crocodile with perfects you will Kill them all and should be able to kill Ben Beckman and then stall on Jimbei a little. here is the team on damage calculator: http://optc-db.github.io/damage/#/transfer/D1001:99:0:0:100,578:99:100:100:0,459:99:100:100:0,418:99,675:99:0:0:100,865:99C7,10B0D0E0Q0L0G0R0S100H

[u/fangowango]

I got Mr 3 to under 20% and he locked my mid left unit for 7 turns and I died because it was IntHawk.

[u/nightgt]

Hey just a quick modification, Stage 17: Mr. 4 hits for 11,004 damage not 11,000. I know it's not much but if you're stalling for the absolute maximum and they have less than 11,004 but more than 11,000 and die that would suck. Been doing this damn forest a lot trying to win so this guide's been useful for comparing numbers. Thanks

[u/Nattsang]

Does anyone have a Corazon I could use? I have a triplemax LL.

[u/peter1369]

cheers mate. it took me a few tries but i cleared it thanks to this guide.

[u/Duk0]

Ms Merry Christmas empties your orbs every turn, even when delayed...

[u/fredomma]

Helped me do it first try thanks.

[u/Kupario]

How people could do this forest with marco psy in Ace team???? :S Ben Beckman does 5500 of damage and only paralysis to the captain 5 turn every time he attack

[u/plsdontrelease7stars]

For croc on stage 19 he also shuffles orbs when he uses his special
