I'm assuming you just didn't follow context. People do that for SMN burning reisen NMs, you can't carry COR rolls across zone lines.

No, I've definitely seen people claim that you can do it for ambuscade. Never made sense to me either.
Can someone tell me how to kill Bubbly Bernie without a REMA weapon ?
Each buff type has an innate property determining whether it wears or stays upon zoning, and any of them that are programmed to stay will carry over into Ambuscade.
Protect, Shell, Reraise, Food, Regen, Refresh, Stoneskin, etc. will all stay when entering Ambuscade, while Songs, Rolls, Phalanx, Light Arts, Entrust, etc. will all disappear.

Should we not be able to get the other sets from ambuscade this months from the total hallmarks?

What are the best non-SMN strats for Reis T3s?
Yakshi Bst Zerg (samething as conduit, but bst) > Blm's Sch Setup
Maju > Blm death setup / All melee ws savage blade (or same time but harder)
Neak > kind of a *** no matter what, very high acc melee or Blm setup holding tp for earth crusher to break shield
rng makes all 3 of them pretty zzz

No, but SCH is disgustingly OP for time wasting strats. Puts what RDM used to be able to solo to shame. It's insane what Helix and selfSC can do.

Am doing something to cause it or does Old Shuck's spikes now give slow (overwrites Haste 2) instead of flash?
Haha.. if that's true, square *** up with the update, the Volume 1 Ambuscade has slow spikes.
I did find that weird; SE has always associated Slow with Wind Spikes, not Earth Spikes.
Yeah, but all examples of Slow on spikes has (until this ambuscade) been from a Wind Spikes effect, and Flash was given to Earth Spikes instead.

Tank and spank. All of them die in a min or 2 with a 6 man melee pt. Most of the time I only get 3-5 ws off before they die.

While it works that way for organized and experienced groups, this is far from normal.
If someone is asking how to do it, I can promise you it's not going to go that easily.

His question was "best non-SMN strats for Reis T3s" nothing more and nothing less. I answered exactly that.
What he meant was:
"what's the only way I'm going to be able to get a group from shout to be able to clear this by failing the least"
((I'm assuming here, but yeah, safe bet.))
A melee shout is going to fail 9/10
A blm shout is going to fail 5/10
A rng shout is going to fail (hard to call I'll go 3/10)
Melee shout is likely to be the Worst way to try to clear it

Even if that's the case, there is still nothing wrong with melee setup. I've done them PUG way with every member are people that I don't know, some had no previous melee setup clear experience either. T3 isn't Rocket science, come on.
It's also way easier to get a good melee since they are dim a dozen not many plays RNG or blm seriously.
But hey, if you like blm and RNG, why not? They just don't kill as fast.

There is nothing wrong with it, correct.
But answer your questions the way they are directed.
If someone is asking the best way to do it, try to understand WHY they would be asking.
Someone that has to ask how to do it, has a 0% chance of pulling it off with melees. It's the reason SMN strats exist in the first place. If melee was possible SMN wouldn't exist.
My absolute favorite thing in this game is watching people fail content. I'm highly qualified in the "what works" category.
People that think they're a "good" melee are a dime a dozen. ACTUAL good melee are quite rare.
