Title: Puzzle and Dragons Thread 20 - The thread is now Xuanzang, 20 posts or less only
Post by: Janitor Morgan on April 21, 2015, 03:49:03 PM

Puzzle & Dragons is an ios/android puzzle RPG.  It plays like a cross between Bejeweled and Pok?mon.  It's completely free to play, but has premium features through purchasable "magic stones," the game's premium currency (which can also be obtained frequently as rewards in-game), which allow for increased inventory, pulls from a rare egg machine, and more.  If you're patient enough the game gives you enough stones through special events and rewards that you shouldn't need to buy any.  (It's recommended you don't because then you will be feeding the mighty Juggler-empire lead by the Dark Lord YamaP and his army of really good artists.)

You can control monsters from lowly slimes to even lowlier dragons to hilarious monsters like the Extreme King Metal Tamadra (above).  They all have different stats and skills, allowing you to customize your team for any number of purposes.

Real talk though, the real reason to get into this game is because everyone else here is playing it and has been playing non-stop for the past 2 years :V , and probably won't stop for a long time thanks to the constant updates to the game and its mechanics, balance changes that never directly nerf anything and are mostly focused on increasing the viability of older monsters, and of course the endless addition of new monsters and collabs that are dished out on a regular basis.

If you're interested, there's a really useful database of monsters and game info here:

http://www.puzzledragonx.com/

A tip for new players: At the end of the tutorial the game will give you one free pull on the rare egg machine.  It's best to "scum" this pull and start over (by uninstalling and reinstalling) until you get something that's really rare (a god).  Great starters include any of the Chinese gods, Ares, Bastet, Isis, Idunn & Idunna, Lu Bu, Zhuge Liang, Odin, Kali, Shiva, Sonia, and many others.  Feel free to ask!

If you need more help or just want to discuss the game, we also have a P&D channel on the MotK IRC network in here. Just type your name and go.
For those using IRC clients other than webchat, the channel is #puzzleandlibrarians on irc.ppirc.net.

Verdandi with GOdin on board handles Beorc reasonably well. You can pop all actives on Hades, handle Leviathan by virtue of being green, and stall on Beorc with your decent recovery to get your skills back if Leviathan's skill bind gets past Verdandi's lock resist.

I think I did have one turn where Beorc would have killed me if she rolled a different skill, but I could have mitigated that with better heart management.

Post by: Edible on April 21, 2015, 05:54:26 PM
I dusted off my U&Y team and obliterated most of Beorc with it.  Probably could have polished her off but I dropped a TPA and missed a heart match so I died.  Definitely would have won if my Blodins had been packing triple TPA heat.

Edit: Speaking of which, 2/23 is when JP got Awoken Venus, and ult evos for:

Starter dragons
Son Wukong
Pandora
Blodin
Vritra
Indra

Juuuuust sayin'.

And that just leaves Himiko for the last tama I need; Cleopatra would require two gravities and the ogres in Ishtar have a water bind I'm not sure I could live through. The damage on the ogres in this dungeon seems a bit high, though...

EDIT: decided to try Ishtar first and whoops everything went better than expected

Mechdragons are proabably preferred since Moltras can't drop with +s. That said, he should be able to Lelian all of them. Light might be the most difficult, but he has a rei Sirius, so I think he can manage.

He'd have to stall for Rei whenever he wanted more than 1x attack, is the thing, since that dungeon is in Karin colors.

What's my best bet for beating up Hera BorkBork for her green orb?  I was able to wait out the absorb on Legend ezmode but I'm not sure that's a legit tactic on Mythical.

Well, time to go look for those Beach Metatron friends I guess.

I came very close to beating her with u&y, I suspect lkali could wipe the floor with it, if your lkali team is decent?

Wouldn't she have a horrendously bad time by virtue of being white? Or are you thinking she's stall out the absorb?
Title: Re: Puzzle and Dragons Thread 20 - The thread is now Xuanzang, 20 posts or less only
Post by: triangles on April 22, 2015, 02:02:54 AM
Yeah that was my main concern.  I suppose it's decent enough (LKali/LMeta/SQ/Yomi/*, prob LZL for bind resist) but I don't know how realistic waiting it out is.  LMeta team has more HP though but not as much firepower.
Title: Re: Puzzle and Dragons Thread 20 - The thread is now Xuanzang, 20 posts or less only
Post by: commandercool on April 22, 2015, 02:09:28 AM
I would think LMeta shouuuuuld be good to go. I guess it's all down to how hard you can hit Leviathan. You should probably be able to stall out the lock no problem with recovery that good if you can get past Leviathan. Maybe pop a lot of actives and try to conserve as many orbs as you can when you finish off Hades?

Seems to me like there's almost a chance pairing with a white Zhuge Liang might be worth doing. After the initial pre-emptive that you can just heal off with a Metatron active you shouldn't take a hit until Hera, and she's delayable so you can pack Echidna to let you delay and heal up to full for your murderburst. That should give you enough firepower to finish Leviathan I would think, and a little bit of lock resist too. Not great HP though, so I guess stalling on Hera could be troublesome if you get orbtrolled.

Edit: Wait, nevermind, LZL totally doesn't work. I forgot how Leviathan worked. Unless he gives you enough lock resists to keep your skills I guess. But yeah, he damages you every turn, so that's not right.

ilu LMeta thx for giving the pluses too  :3
(http://i.imgur.com/MNIIWai.png)
Like I suspected, LKali team just didn't have the HP/RCV to stall out the absorb if Hera BorkBork got fiesty and used her full damage attacks instead of the wussy ones.  I did get lucky and got the 40% skillbind resist (thanks LZL and Fuu ahhhhh why did I go so long without using her?) Did get pretty heart trolled though so this attempt wouldn't have been successful had I gotten hit with it.

- Awoken Shiva will get 3x ATK at 6+ combo (YamaP tweet) with 1.5x ATK/RCV to fire card. Multiplier increasing starting from 4 combo up to 4.5x ATK at 6+ combo for fire cards.

- Awoken Meimei active now changes board into Wood, Light, Dark orbs. But instead of wood orb enhance, it now reduces cooldown of other active skills by 1.

- Ult Durga LS now deals 5x ATK when matching 4 of Fire, Water, Wood, Dark, and Heal orbs. No more 3.5x ATK.

I'm not sure about the phrasing on Shiva's new leaderskill.  Seems nice though.

I really like the change to Meimei's LS.  That's much better than a dumb orb enhance.

I think I like Durga's LS even more than the 3.5x alternative.  That just rocks.

That "reduce cooldown of other skills" thing is spooky. Seems breakable somehow. I guess it depends on how ubiquitous it becomes. The more different kinds of utility effects we get with that ability the messier it gets.

The FF collab will have a lot of it, so I suspect it will become fully ubiquitous.

Regardless, we already had it as a "bonus" to an existing active skill - orb refresh, if the skyfall triggers a match, it also triggers a cooldown reduction.

What if? If that happened you'd see it get deleted from the game entirely because it would create an assload of infinite loops.

As-is it's kind of interesting with one-cooldown skills, but I don't think many of them are playable even at multie uses a turn.

What's your healer team?  The internet tells me it's possible but I sure as heck had to stone to get my Sandy way back when  :(

My standard team.

Also I always find myself having to make both heart and light orbs if I'm not blasting things down immediately.

You should probably swap out king shynee for something with better stats like sanda-

But no a maxed Sandy would be useful too. Hence why I'm trying to do this.

I have similar mons to the Rose/Athena builds so I will try that later

Have you ever tried a friend Raphael for 2.4/4.7/2? His active kind of sucks and dealing with himself in the dungeon might be a trick, but you do have the delay. If you time it right you can probably burn off Sandy's bind with heart rows, or just delay him and hope you can crush him before he goes off. That team should handle any of the three third-floor angels fine, so the last two floors are really the only problem. Might work.

Edit: Oh shit Star Vault tomorrow get ready. And this time mine isn't while I'm at work so I can actually go all-out.

One thing I'm rapidly discovering--I've gotten spoiled by the recovery amounts on my main, water healer (well, mostly water healer; I don't have Sun Quan yet...well, I have his Mini version, but...so I've got Echidna and King Shynee in there for the non) team. The rather small healing for my Cao Cao team (even if they are only around L50 on average; subordinates are Blue Flame Ifrit, Theurgia, Misato, and King Flamie) is proving irksome to me.

EDIT: Meanwhile, what's taking GungHo so long to develop ultimates for Blue and Jade Sonia? They've got ultimate Red for a guideline, so I don't understand why they're leaving this irritating asymmetry around. (And really, it's just the asymmetry that bothers me; I don't use any of the Soniae. All right, ally Red Sonia for my Lu Bu team, but that's my secondary team at best, compared to my Eternal Idunn team.)

1) have +99 RCV L/L Amaterasu friend
2) have max skill LIzanami
3) have max skill Damascus
4) have Tengu at all

Do you have anything that can use strong poison that would fit in your team and not weigh it down or anything?  That seems to be the usual strat for those who can't burst over it IIRC.

Do you have anything that can use strong poison that would fit in your team and not weigh it down or anything?  That seems to be the usual strat for those who can't burst over it IIRC.

I'm looking into that now; the strategy assumes you have two GOdins, probably for the autoheal. Unfortunately that means there's no room for anything that can take down the dragon, and if you swap that GOdin out for other things, you would be hard-pressed to survive Graviton Bomb and Ultra Graviton Bomb forever, and Flame Pillar/Freezing Blast become more dangerous too.

I *think* I see a very narrow HP window in which Hera-Elsa could work? Maybe? There'd still be the problem of "oh god if I get heart starved I'm dead" with Freezing Blast in particular, but it might do the trick...

(Worth noting is that in that particular scenario, since Freezing Blast only starts at 75%, Zeus & Hera would make that a non-issue because then you could switch to Damascus as lead and not instantly die if you're out of hearts.)

EDIT: ..yeah the HP window is really small. 19884 is the minimum (Shining Death Queen's Judgement with Damascus + LIzanami active), 20187 is the maximum (6594 autoheal from Ama, 2000 from Odin, 1000 from Hera-Elsa, 500 from LIzanami, all doubled and then minus 1 for Tengu's LS threshold).

Used Andro, Skuld, Nut, Reine, Isis, Adro vs beorc

I died to friggin alraune becuase she kills heart orbs every turn so I had nothing to orb change since Nut was used and nothing else came up until the exact turn i died

so yeah it was my fault for being dumb and not just killing al asap but bluh i dunno i dont use these teams <_>

Ariel+Athena has been taking on Sandalphon handily. I can even field Susano to premptively tank the preemptive skill bind, and by the time the damage reduction wears out, Amaterasu will be up to cure the ten turn bind if it hits.

Leilan>Ariel>Athena makes for really good bursting.

In most cases, probably not, unless he wanted to use the +eggs. Heroes want mostly orbchangers on teams. Even on Perseus who's low on rows, I can put put a little less than 4 mil with only orbchangers. If he wants to to oneshot Satan someone beefy with a water subtype, He'd probably want to use Freyr instead because he'll give a bigger boost on a short cooldown that lasts for more than one turn.

The only time I've considered it is for things without wood orbs where belial is functionally useless (and gold keeper, because with both freyr and shiva it's simple to one shot him and the plus eggs help)

Shiva, Freyr, and Takeru on a Suzaku board (with any orb changes) is insanely strong, but complete overkill. And by Complete overkill, I mean, 12 mil overkill. With just freyr I can hit 6 mil regularly on the same (Though, I could consider swapping Freyr for Shiva. The plus eggs might work better, and you don't ever need the 3 turn boost).

Sooo yeah Shiva became useless, 245 + eggs later. Thanks, gungho! I should be used to this, it happens to most of my mains.

Meanwhile, bastet gets reworked at the slightest sign of not being bastet.

Hmm. Got Star Vault 14 hours from now, a full stamina bar, and Izanami is up. Maybe I can beat Mythical outside of challenge rush and collect that sto-

Nope, dead instantly. Ugh. :wat:

I can't remember exactly which configuration of my team I used to do this. There's definitely some version that does it, but I can't remember if it's Siren instead of Beyzul, or Metatron instead of I&I, or both. Either way, I don't know how to play blind and it sucks. Making rows blind sucks.

I -really- like the thought of two max skilled Ariels as leads because that's a free guaranteed light TPA available every two turns. The simple fact that Athena exists and gets the full 14x boost from all those TPAs is like <3

You can use the full board changes from Superman/Awoken Meimei/Leilan and -usually- get at least two light TPAs by default but you can also drop an Ariel active to guarantee even more. Attacker Thor may not be TPA based but that three turn enhance is still strong. If you're going with Meimei or Suzaku you can even field GZL for an attacker enhance because you still get green orbs out of the deal.

The biggest stigma I've come across is "oh it's an archangel v2 it's garbage." It's pretty hard to convince people to use them when they usually have every other possible leader. :/

Case in point: one of my friends was running an Amenouzume team with Ares, Nym, Suzaku and Dino Rider/Mitsuki but Ameno is almost interchangeable with the Rozuel he pulled.  Rozuel has an even higher attack multiplier and no chance of the cleric being bound alongside everyone else compared to Ameno. He wouldn't have given it a run without me saying, "Hey this team is really good and I think you should give it a run."

Famiel is a bit odd but can still row it up with Gabriel and Reine. Lumiel has bunches of applications being that coveted dark devil. The only oddball is Ruel but you still have things like DevilMeimeiCry and Astaroth+Cauchemar, Ceres, Parvati.

If you can get the subs for it, you're good. Think that's the biggest thing tbh. Most of the popular leads have easy to get subs. Personally, I've never been too crazy about "randomly generate x orbs though." Feel like that not going to kill anything cool.

Mostly the last two. Like, I'm looking at Rozzy like 'Which form is cuter' despite being one of the few red bind clears because she spends 3 of 4 awakenings to do her job and then makes me have to survive another turn to boot.

The only one I have a real problem right now with is Lumiel and that's almost specifically because while I love her to pieces, she just doesn't have the same potential that some of my other devil leaders do and I think her ult form will do wonders for that once she gets one.

Eh. She might not be your goto, but I think she's a great way to get bulk without having to go all Lucifer. My biggest issue is that I'm not really sure how to make the most out of quad color boards or spammy small amounts of orbs things. Add in a heartmaker with no RCV in a color known for not having RCV, and I'm not really a big fan.

Mostly the last two. Like, I'm looking at Rozzy like 'Which form is cuter' despite being one of the few red bind clears because she spends 3 of 4 awakenings to do her job and then makes me have to survive another turn to boot.

And Rozzy has an amazing 0 RCV.

For fuck's sake GungHo you had ONE JOB!

While the rest of the angels v2 help compensate for their weakest stat through their leader ability, only +eggs can save Rozuel...
Also consider that red Attacker has ~Ares~ to carry with his stellar 0 RCV.

I mean, theoretically you have chokezume and Mitsuki to help! You'd...just...be running a lot of...yeah okay I got nothing.

Really the fact the best bind clear red has is still FDS, which is a prong card in red, -still- hurts the most...

I've just been doing the normal pal machine because it occasionally drops +eggs. The only things in the evo machine I can use are yellow fruits and angelits, and they're too diluted to be worth fishing for. Even jewels don't matter much any more because of Hera challenges.

Actually, I take that back. Rainbow keepers matter too. I'm always short on those no matter how many I have.

I just wish they would bring back the metal dragon PEM occasionally. I know everyone else hates it, but it's more useful to me than the other options. Come on, just one day a month or something?

I'm so tired of having to continuously run Noah. I've beaten it twice (once in challenge rush, once where my phone reset and ate my win) and it's such a bullshit RNG dungeon for something as fragile as Kali. Just give me my clear and stone, I already earned them twice.

In fact, I'm sick of Kali. Everything one-shots her. She can't live a sneeze, and I'm bad at playing her. I guess replacing Echidna with anything not made of glass would do a lot for my survivability though.

You know who I main, right? This is not a problem for me of all people, normally.

I think that's probably why I suck at Kali so much. But I can't use my normal team because of the rainbow restriction, or even my good Kali team.

My problem with it is that the benefits of a jewel dragon PEM feel like a drop in the bucket to running supers and the like. If they made a enhance mat PEM equivalent of the evo PEM (higher fee in exchange for guaranteed enhance mats, I'd be all over it.

Heck yes. Or even a skilkup REM that drops only pirates, fairies, chasers, ladybugs etc. Pretty much anything but evo mats honestly.

I kept seeing this topic again and again, so I figured I'd get this game with my new phone.  This is a fun game and I have hardly any idea of what I'm doing.  Seems like everytime I evolve something I have to rearrange my team to make it fit.  Right now my team is Siren, Brachio, Samurai Ogre, Low Light Ninja, and Dark Dragon Knight.  My name is Helianthea and I'm Rank 18.
Title: Re: Puzzle and Dragons Thread 20 - The thread is now Xuanzang, 20 posts or less only
Post by: triangles on April 24, 2015, 08:07:07 PM
Welcome to the gang!

While Siren makes for a good sub in a number of teams, you will very soon reach a brick wall in progression without a stronger leader monster, same with your Brachio - there's a reason the OP recommends scumming your initial roll as it's your only chance to guarantee getting a good card!

I have spare newbie accounts I made just for new people in the thread: one has Da Qiao & Xiao Qiao (match any 4 types of orbs for a 4x attack multiplier to everyone) and the other has Vishnu (1 green match gives 2.5x attack for everyone, 2 green matches for 3.5x) and for when you rank up one of the best subs for him in the game.

The former leader is harder to activate but more powerful, though either would be a huge step up.  They're a bit lower in rank than you are currently but you will quickly make up for it.  Let me know if you want one!

I know I appreciate the Evolution Materials PEM. I am NOT confident in my ability to zero-stone mythicals. I'm not even that good at zero-stoning legends. (Tried Sandalphon with my mostly-water-healer team a little while ago--Eternal Idunn, Hatsume, Ruka, Echidna, King Shynee, with Paradise Metatron as the ally. Ended up spending five stones--one on Raphael, the rest on Sandalphon's Performance of Judgement. Yes, I did get Sandalphon--I didn't give up after the fourth Performance.)

Although if you have any thoughts on what I should be constructing for an anti-mythical team...

www.puzzledragonx.com/en/profile.asp?u=11392

EDIT: That water healer team now has Mini Sun Quan (finally evolved) replacing King Shynee, now. I'm strongly considering replacing Echidna with either Blue Moon Isis or Cosmos Venus.

A. Ceres is still so pretty.  I should try to find a use for her as a friend leader sometime.  Maybe if I ever evo CuChu or something since I have him, Perseus, uh...I think ADKZ has Balanced still...

EDIT:  Forget that, this sounds MUCH more fun!

Freyja/Perseus/Artemis/Kushi/Melon Dragon/[A. Ceres].

EIGHT wood rows.  Even at only 5x that'd have to do SOMETHING, right?

EDIT2:  If I did my math right, that team's burst, assuming all Lv. 99 no plusses, would probably do about 2 million damage.  Given how many powerful actives I have in the team, this could get pretty ridiculous pretty fast, especially when the team also has:

-7 skill boosts
-100% wood orb skyfall-with-plus chance(5 + wood awakes)
-60% Skillbind resist
-20% Blind resist
-1 second extra movement time
-(assuming the relevant ones are all unbound)NINE-turn heart-row-bind-clear
-An unbindable 3-turn bind clear and 30% HP restore
-Multiplied Rcv over 4,000
-1000 autoheal
-About 17k HP(a bit of a problem since it's sort of low, though it's effectively 34k when fighting L/D foes.)

Swap Artemis out and slot GGY in for a bit less RCV but higher HP, a faster heartbreak active(which also heals HP), an additional SB, and an additional 500 autoheal~!

HA HA HA HA HA

GET FUCKED FOREVER HERA BEORC MYTHICAL

After a week persevering through hilarious orbscrews and general bullshit, I have emerged triumphant in a predominantly green dungeon with a predominantly blue team.

 :toot:

Along those lines:

(http://i.imgur.com/SAga8KC.png)

It's not the same, I know. I thought it kind of was, but I forgot Hercules counts down for five fucking turns before he attacks. So yeah... I would've died otherwise. But then again, I would've been able to delay him earlier if I hadn't run into Karin. So yeah, got a blue orb too. :derp: Not as much of a challenge as I thought, but I'll take my stone anyway.

I think I just have Cauchemar and maaaaybe Zhao Yun left and I'll have cleared every normal descend on Mythical.

And I'm looking forward to the new skillups and the Angels buff. All those enhanced orbs could be huge, they should push my damage over the edge from falling just short of one-shotting four million HP enemies with my minimum burst.

Also, I like how when I look at the changelog in Google Translate it translates Shinji's skill as "You're not going away". Frames that scene in a much different light. :D

Well yeah. And for maximum ultimate Kali abuse, the dark Izanami skillup.

Both Athena and Light Healers are super offense which is how I prefer all games but I am really feeling the need for tanking power lately.

I guess either I'm not good enough at Ronia or something because I can't use it for everything like others say they can.  Then again I was at the endgame plussing my healers before she came out so I think my perspective is off.

Oof, not mine. Three of my four IRL PAD friends play Ronia, and of the three of them none are ultimate, none have any skillups, and none have more than 50 +eggs. The other one runs Shiva, who is at least cooler, but again low-+, no skillups (which at this point doesn't matter because ultimate Shiva). Two of them have allegedly been working on Athena, but I have yet to see either ever run her. And the Shiva guy pulled Metatron recently so I guess he's working on her. That would be cool, but I have a crazy surplus of hypermax Metatrons.

i'm fucking sick of being behind the power curve just becuase gungho does whatever they like

oh yeah isis is fine meanwhile lets buff the others to be the best leaders in the game

i dont even have anything to look forward to anymore in this game like whatever im done


also i cant combo at all anymore after i transferred because this screen is super slippery and always fucks up in ways i cant even imagine

hera rush

You do realize that Hera Rush is one of the most bullshit dungeons in the game right

Why not start at XGod rush if you really want to try beating a rush?

Hera Rush is actually really hard just to run nilly-willy and requires some specific team setups. For many teams Hera Rush just can't be done because Wave 1 Hera-Ur is a brick wall. Even if you were to invest in a "real" team like Ronia, you would need to run Ronia/Beelzebub (Ronia/Lu Bu and Ronia/Ronia don't give you enough HP to survive DQ Hera's pre-emptive without a shield) and you would probably need to blow actives on Hera-Ur to defeat her as you are still stuck with x6.25 ATK. Even bruteforce leaders like Awoken Ra have issues because Hera-Beorc has Photosynthesis requiring you to stall 10 turns of Light absorb while Hera-Beorc is free to slap you silly; you better not be heart-starved or else you will die, I have died on some Hera Rush attempts with Awoken Ra because I had no hearts.

Well, I am sorry about this; it was really weird that Awoken Meimei got announce before either Awoken Isis or Awoken Anubis. But Thaws said maybe they are holding out for a different color themed Descend as material for those two. But you also have to acknowledge that it's very difficult just to use one lead for every dungeon in the game.

oh boy if BeelzeRonia didn't have Byakko+CDD up by turn two I would -not- be doing Hera-Rush. Damn high kicks are too strong.

Hera-Is right after is no better, making me drop a Ceres active if I don't immediately down her.

Thing is, I still have to stall on them enough so that Neptune can get three turns of poison on EXTREEEEEME Metal Dragon. But once you get past Hera-Is the rest of the dungeon is really easy for BeelzeRonia.

Hera Rush is a bunch of baloney to even enter because of that 31k preemptive. The vast majority of teams will never see that much HP, nor will they be comfortable eating it even with Lizanami or Dizanami.

It's easy to look past ronias if you just run reverse ATT on your friend list :v

But then I don't have Edible at the top of my list :c

This.

If it's frustrating you so much just take a break for a while. Do daily logins for stones but don't play. Do something that you actually enjoy. Clearly, this game is losing the fun factor for you now. Maybe when you come back you might get good rolls that will makes your team better if you are incredibly insistent on running Isis for everything or you might get a better lead.

Well, since I have pretty much nothing TO do in PaD anymore once I'm done challenge mode farming, I should probably get around to making an actual blue and dark teams (Since they're the colors I'm currently missing).

How about this team (http://www.puzzledragonx.com/en/simulator.asp?q=1955.99.1.0.0.0.8..1265.99.1.0.0.0.7..1078.99.1.0.0.0.9..1254.99.1.0.0.0.4..1254.99.1.0.0.0.4..1955.99.1.0.0.0.8) for blue and this one (http://www.puzzledragonx.com/en/simulator.asp?q=1736.99.1.0.0.0.7..1736.99.1.0.0.0.7..894.99.1.0.0.0.3..1084.99.1.0.0.0.9..893.99.1.0.0.0.4..1736.99.1.0.0.0.7) for dark?

I can finish leveling up my persephone and get skillups simultaneously.  Hooray!

Just in time for gungho to give her pantheon awoken evos?
:V

Who knows (TM)~

I'd be unsurprised if they just got second ultis with more awakenings or a LS change and a jewel or two. 2x hp/attack isn't terrible for some minor things (if hella outdated), and as subs they mostly could benefit from more powerful awakenings as 7 awakenings starts to become more common. Especially after they just made the base skill stronger.

then again, when have I ever been right :v

It's not everyday that Persephone gets a buff. I can use her on turn 1 even when I'm not fielding two Ronias! Good job, GungHo.

Except I need to skill her up one more time. Thanks, GungHo.

You can farm Wicked Ladies at the moment.  :V

9/10 I'm going wait another turn for Meimei though. If I have to pop Izanagi early, I'm probably not very happy.  Course, I could probably him with Valkyrie for something than use Meimei/Verche on the next thing. That might work.

Izanagi would be up every two Ariel bursts, so that's what I would do with him. You don't even necessarily have to use a China conversion, as Valkyrie + 2x Ariel will more than likely give 16 light orbs on its own.

Purely hypothetical. He fits moreso than TAMADRApurin on my eventual team, having a TPA instead of a row and a skillbind to boot.

If only I had an Izanagi. Oh well.

Maybe I should go BeelzebubxPandora sometime around. Totally go against the TPA flow and row it up anyways.

Fed my new Blanc to LMeta. She's like 50k exp from being max now! I have big plans for her on my Awoken Venus team (just because she can eliminate binds because hell yes).

Projected team plan:

Awoken Venus/LMeta/Apocalypse/Thor/Valkyrie

11 rows, two orb changers, one enhancer (may switch Thor to Izanagi if he's not pulling his weight properly, but that'll fuck rows up), and a lot of RCV. Would potentially like to be able to farm Sandalphon with such a team, so I can sub in Kushinada or Echidna if needed.

Also trying to farm Shadow Sprite for more potential Pandora skillups. God, what a painful process this is. The drop rate is abysmal--I've run it like 10 times but only got the drop 3 times.

PAD JP is introducing a new "Rush" Legend Plus dungeon; the "Ultimate Yamato Rush." It confirmed to have the following opponents:

UVO Goemon (probably the boss)
Kanetsugu
Dark Izanami
Kaguya-hime
Awoken Hinokagutsuchi
Awoken Wadatsumi

Fatty dragon may replace one of these bosses at a chance.

PAD JP also introduce a new "Challenge," - "Once in a Lifetime Challenge (No Continue)" which features some dungeons copying "Once in a Lifetime" style, you will get some good rewards such as free jewels, Snowglobe, Piis and such. Clear all the 10 levels for a stone.

Does anyone who's friends with me in-game (or anyone, really) have any input about what I should put in my second leader slot? It had been hypermax Reine for a long time, but I've been switching it around to different things because of her limited use as a lead. I could do Reine, Athena, Verdandi, Kali, dark Metatron, or GZL. All of them are max level/awoken and either max skill or with multiple skillups and the intent to max skill soon, but none of them but Reine have more than a handful of +eggs.

1/6 Persephone skillups :(

That's perfectly normal and expectable, isn't it?

I'll say Verdandi to benefit those who use her since Im pretty sure she still isnt seen much here in NA(No idea about JP but that one is irrelevant to this anyway) and meanwhile you cant turn a corner these days without tripping over Athenas.

Post by: commandercool on April 28, 2015, 02:22:44 PM
My Athena is certainly the minimun usable Athena (well, not quite, she is at least skillmax), but sometimes people need a ton of Athenas up for farming. Although I guess the same could be true of Verdandi, she would be a great farm lead if more people had her/put her up.

Verdandi has higher capacity to clear descends than Athena.

She is one of the most popular Norns in NA due to the ubiquity of Liu Bei owners.

Do you think that matters for non-+ed monsters? U've been assuming that my +-less secondary leads will always be at the bottom of people's list of choices and therefore will only be actually used by people who are farming.

I got away with my Kali being just skillmax for a while, but everyone who has a few Kali friends probably has better ones now, and the same is probably true for Verdandi. Is it?

My Athena is certainly the minimun usable Athena (well, not quite, she is at least skillmax)

I use Lv80/+0 Athenas at SLv1 for farming. Lv99 is hardly minimum, and I almost never need the skill to be used nowadays.

With that said, I don't really think any of them are a particularly bad choice unless you mean "which one will generate me the most PAL points." Using the others in slot 2 helps add variety, like Reine could be used for water farming (I thought about this recently...), or maybe some people actually run GZL. Verdandi is actually fairly common in public users from what I've seen nowadays, and anyone that wants to farm alts probably has the sense to have several Athenas added already.

Because the number of hypermax Ronias out there makes you very indistinguishable.

Make a Beelzebub instead and all the Ronias will flock to you.

Re-skill maxed Persephone with three wicked ladies. Good feelings. (http://imgur.com/Uh4AysG)

If they end up making an Awoken Persephone, I really hope her stats remain intact. She may not have more than two good awoken skills right now, but it's because of her garbage awoken skills that she has 800+ in weighted stats without plus eggs...

I was you before you were you in this case :(

Fortunately I managed to beat it by going Horus instead of Athena. Horus also carried me through Level 6 which means I now have two flampys to feed to my eventual Awoken Horus!

(Do I dare try challenge 7?)

EDIT: Checking level 7, I can maybe do it with GZL, so long as Medjed doesn't screw me over with his leader change (AKA gives me Liu Bei instead of anything else.)

I'm probably not touching level 7 because I struggled so much with Thothdet in the one challenge I bothered to fight them in. And it's doubly worrying this time because Isis preemptive.

At the same time, I feel like with enough heart skyfall luck and if I had a Tengu, I could Luci level 9. :V Tengu would let me survive Nebula Inferno and Sakuya's dark bind, but the problem is in order to get through Defoud in the first place I'd need three gravities, and Haku has gravities of her own. orz

Ha ha yup, he got me too. I even had PDX open to that window, I just didn't bother to look at it. :D

Challenge 7 seems very doable with Gabriel. In fact, it's basically made for him aside from the fact that you have to grind through a ton of green HP.

I have no idea if it'll actually work, but...
Hermes/Undine/TwinStarLeviathan/Orochi/Karin/[BOdin]

The idea's to just fight normally through the first waves just doing my best not to die because of all the pre-emptives, then when I get to Gold pop Orochi and try to burn down the first half of his HP as fast as I can.  Then when he prepares to use Hand of Destruction, I activate Undine and hope my row stacking is up to par to finish him off before the immunity wears off.

Even with a bunch of my team members not very leveled, I still have over 50k HP with that team, so when it IS leveled, well...I figure I can facetank the pre-emps and heal up with combinations of heal orbs now and again(though they won't do MUCH due to my team heavily lacking in RCV minus perhaps Karin and of course your BOdin with his ridiculous every stat, though it'll be a bit higher as well once everyone's leveled sufficiently.

So today I discovered that PDX's info for challenge 6 Takeminakata is wrong. As listed, even with the buff, Divine Katana of Yasaka should have been survivable with the Odin/Ama team I was using, just from raw HP alone.

I died by like 30 points, which means his attack stat is higher than listed (and thus all of his skills as well). Checked the comments on the dungeon afterwards and had that confirmed; should start doing that before attempting next time...

EDIT: Skyozora is saying that not only is his attack actually 6583 (so Divine Katana does 21072), but his HP (6254583) is enough that the team I tried to tackle him with can't actually cut it. Time for another approach.

So thinking on either running trapthor or the flash as a sub. I'm thinking Thor so I can go with an Athena sub and keep everything a god. Trying to think of one good last sub but can't really think of any, I may just roll with echinda.

Claymore. I have 2 of her.

2 TPA, 2 Skill boosts.

Really gimmicky type of AS which swaps the monster's entire color to a different one.

First roll:(http://i.imgur.com/PTVYvJ6.jpg)

Hello, darling. I've waited so long for you. :*

I don't know if I'll roll more or not, now. I have a bing rewards roll ready as well as $4 in Google opinions money as well. Still really want Minerva, but Ceres was my #1 want this time around.

Indeed to both!

Also note that with Awoken Parvati, if I combine them I am 100% immune to binds pretty much forever since both she and Ceres are bind proof and Parvati is a heart maker and Ceres has a bind clearing active AND awakening. And they're both Devils. Fuck yes.

holy fuck dood

I'm so stoked, I've been wanting Ceres for literally over a year now. And I didn't even have to whale for her!

Seems I have Shotel now.  So what is the verdict on the weapons?  Are they any good, or just big stat sticks that are super situatonal at best?  I like double skillboost and double TPA, but...

Shotel is p insane. I think all the weapons besides Claymore could fit somewhere nicely. You could use Shotel for alt running since she actually turns into not-butt colors.

The blue one (Claymore?) has an interesting application on Urd where she'll drop the team's max HP and make it a bit easier to hit the team's HP-based multipliers. Also, a 3 turn cd on 1.5x attack for attackers is something.

Yeah the thing with her is that I can't think of anywhere she goes *besides* Urd. B/R is a strange and uncommon color combination, and made even more inconvenient for me due to the fact that I have attackers of neither color.

Trance: my hax comment was directed at the screenshots above your post.

Does Claymore actually drop the hp? From the videos I've seen, the color doesn't change, it just has a personal buff that alters which orbs it responds to and what damage it deals.
She's a cute blue thing with 2 TPA, so I am sort of wanting her. Would prefer a dupe Bodin, but yeah.

For all intents and purposes, she turns into a red card with no trace of blue, I thought. It's kinda why they don't benefit from their own leader skill until they change colors.

Double TPAs are still nice. They have good awoken skills and come "evolved" right out of the box, but just have the trade-off of being gimmicky.

I guess challenge 7 is impossible for me. If I run GZL I get consistently heart-starved to survive through the masks, if I run Horus (with the 2500 autoheal) I don't have enough damage to kill the blue mask even at x25 multiplier

I need a better team, apparently.

Still debating whether I want to try Ultimate God Rush. As it stands I can probably semi-consistently clear it if I pull Beelzebub, but I definitely die to Fat Dragon and I doubt I can handle Satan unless my Awoken Zeus fight goes exceptionally and I somehow beat him without having to use Beyzul OR Sun Quan, which is super unlikely. Once again, if I had that theoretical hypermax U/W Sun Quan friend I think I could handle Satan consistently as well, but it seems like that might not ever be a thing at this rate.

So I'm not sure if it's worth 99 stamina to me to take a gamble on rolling Beelzebub, or at least trying to poke holes in my strategy in the earlier floors.

Pretty sure they used like Horus or something.  Oldschool high damage and high levels and probably lots of plusses depending.

Odin/<Flame Strike ogre>/<Freeze Strike ogre>/<Rock Strike ogre>/<some sort of defense break>/Odin is apparently a legit strategy. Though all of the ogres have to be max skill and the defense break needs to at least be up at the same time as them.

Good: Turns out my Verdandi team farms Thursday Dungeon extremely consistently.

Bad: I got stuck on the Tamadra for over a hundred turns two out of my last three runs.

Good: The Tamadra dropped all three times.

Bad: The blue fruit, which is the only one I don't care about at all, dropped all three times.

Good: I'm done with this stupid dungeon already, fuck it I'll just use piis. I'm not farming this unless I pick up a use for those blue fruits.

Hm...debating on knocking out some more Challenge mode stones since I still have some Tech dungeons I didnt do yet, part of me wants to try for another roll so I can get a chance at like Skuld or BOdin or something. 

Decisions, decisions...

EDIT: Hemera Volcanic Belt Challenge mode done.  Was silly since I brought Hermes and all my OP water friends (namely Chirei's Skuld, both forms of Karin from randos, O4rfish's BOdin, and Aoshi's twinlit!I&I) and just blasted the place apart.  If I had all those cards myself I'd probably MAKE that a team since it feels like it'd work pretty well, even if Skuld carries no rows.  Even with only the 2x mult I had over 44k HP, it was nuts.

Despite having poor HP, I eventually realized I really had to use Echidna to handle all of the low HP bursts. Kushi is there for added anti-burst support and to help stall which was crucial. DKali helped handle all of the jammers and poison orbs. Nut was there for stats and blue orb support.

Floor 1 is pretty much super easy for me now after all those tried although I did die to it a few times. Basically evenly chipped away at both and then finished off with Nut active.

Floor 2 is the second hardest floor. Stalling on them isn't to hard but trying to balance brining them to low HP without getting too low but and also not killing one by accident is difficult and easy messed up by skyfalls. Echidna is useful even though she doesn't affect Thoth since you can bring them both low, delay Sopdet, kill Thoth, and then kill Sopdet after without having to worry about the revive. I actually screwed up after used Echidna resulting in Sopdet getting revived, but I then killed Thoth so they both got revived to 50% and then went back to stalling.

Floor 3 is best floor not too bad. Brought her to just above 50% then delay and finish. Even if I accidentally get skill bound, I have enough HP to tank one strong hit. It does make the next fight even harder though.

Floor 4 is ugh. Basically just have to pray that rng doesn't screw you over with a ridiculous attack pattern, like switch you with Echidna, then heart kill, 99% gravity, and 15k hit. All actives were used liberally.

Floor 5 isn't too bad but it's potentially devastating if you screw up. Unlike most bosses, he's one of the least RNG based bosses in the game because he always converts the exact same orbs. The tricky part is after he gives you heart orbs, you need to heal up but also save some for the next hit, and also make sure not to have heart orbs in the middle row or else they get welcomed to the space jam. After stalling for everything to be up, hit him low with a Kushi shield protecting me from his low HP burst, then Echidna'd him and then that was pretty much victory \o/

Do you have any Chinagirls to skillup?  (Or Indra in the case of Light Jewel?)  If I had any hope of doing so I'd totally play through Merc for a water jewel to try to skill up Karin, but I don't believe I have any teams capable of that stuff just yet.

I already have five red jewels; Suzaku is max skilled; I have Shiva but he only needs three; I have Dancing Hera. I don't have a Karin; don't care about Elsa Hera so much (though Neptune makes her a lot better). I suppose I could skill up Meimei? I have five light jewels with nothing to use them on.

I just need dark jewels to skill up my second Byakko and make dark Fagan. I'll save my third Byakko for the eventual awoken form.

Zeus Challenge, huh? I mean, I might as well keep stacking orbs forever. I might use them all some day, I don't know. Is the last floor Ultimate God Rush? Having it up for a week or whatever might be useful, unless something better is going on I can just bash myself to death against it until I eventually get a decent run and clear it.

I'm almost running out of things to level up with snowglobes. That said, I'm not going to say -no- to six million exp.

When I said that Matsy can do the same Beelzebub team that I can, I had to think about what 2x Beelzebub can actually do.

Eating Twin Dragon Palms is a reason to run 2x Beelzebub I guess. (http://imgur.com/TztSX6K)
Maybe I should skill up Sakuya or Fagan.

As someone who uses all of those except for Osiris at some time or another (but especially Pandora and Athena and definitely the Parvati who became my first +297 just today), I have added you with great enthusiasm. I main Pandora these days and use Athena for general farming, but will be maining Parvati and Kali as well in the future.

Star Vault tomorrrowwwwww. I'm going to hypermax Sun Quan, hopefully. Bring him up to +99 in at least one thing anyway, in all likelihood. Hopefully it doesn't come up during work for me again.

Once I finish Sun Quan I gotta make a choice on my next project. The two remaining non-hypermax things on my team are Ruka and Beyzul. Ruka is probably being replaced in the event that I can ever get my hands on Andromeda, which is still theoretically where most of my stones are going. Beyzul is there to stay, but he benefits way less from +eggs than anyone else, at least in HP and attack (doesn't get the I&I/Metatron/Sun Quan HP/attack boosts). I guess I could start on another leader, probably Verdandi or Ra, but I want to finish this team just so I can say my entire team is hypermax. So probably Beyzul it is.

You can at least dump RCV and HP on Beyzul. That'll still be an effective 2,000 HP because of Gabriel, though not as profound as if you +'d Ruka.

Ahh, sticker girls. So useful. It'd be kinda depressing if you got to replace with her Andromeda.

My sense of symmetry won't let me +198 something. It's gotta be 297 or nothing. And that's fine, I can hypermax something in like a month now, so it's not like I'm losing out on months of useful eggs or anything. Plus having to take the time to sort out the attack eggs would slow down Star Vault runs by a lot. I guess I could get around that by buying tons of box space, but I want those stones for Andromeda and more +eggs.

I know, I really do like Ruka a lot. And I find myself wishing I had Fuu and Kurone for stuff periodically too. Stupid REM gods, pricing my cool healers out of the party... Siren's already gone, and now this. Although she is still really good, so if I never end up getting Andromeda my team isn't that much worse for it.

God Rush is easy enough.

I wonder about the fourth floor, though.
2x Beelzebub+Neptune counters Beelzebub the vast majority of the time.
Beelze/Ronia will usually check Beelzebub.
Neptune hard-counters EXTREEEEEME Metal King Dragons.
2x Beelzebub checks Satan. Beelze/Ronia+Neptune will check Satan as well.

there's also
2x Beelzebub+Top Droidragon that hard counters both Beelzebub and EXTREEEEEME Metal King. But I haven't leveled or awoken Top Droidragon at all. :c

However, I can't use Neptune and Ceres at the same time or else my dark damage gets way too low.

A team THAT underdeveloped should NOT be able to beat a Mythical dungeon, tricolor dungeon or not, even with Kushi, IMO.  Oh well, a win's a win!

*for those who have not attempted it yet, the Kushi active I used right at the end was just for show; even 75% reduction wouldn't save me from the nuke waiting for me if I didn't score the killing blow that turn since it woulda done over 100k damage.

Okay so question time.
I've been thinking about a farm team for Sandalphon that can't get orbscrewed because going at it with Sakuya is always going to be too risky.

Hera-Beorc/Zeus-Dios/Canopus/Threedia/???/Ceres will casually facetank or chip down everything of interest -except- for Uriel. So far, this is even completely non-REM on my part!

However. Once Sandalphon's past 50% HP, she'll bind Hera-Beorc and Zeus Dios for ten turns, and Ceres will only cure 3 turns. Green Wee Jas can fit and perfectly heal 10 ten binds over two turns, but that drops the No-REM composition and I'm not sure if I want to do that. Is there anything non-REM that can save my hide from either Uriel or Sandalphon's uberbind?

Provided no invade, if you don't get hit by Melon's bigger hits and kill the not-mug monsters before they move, the biggest hit you'll take before the boss's desperation phase is like 12.8k or something I believe, so maybe slot in some lower rarity stuff to make that part of the score go up more to give yourself leeway?

Okay so question time.
I've been thinking about a farm team for Sandalphon that can't get orbscrewed because going at it with Sakuya is always going to be too risky.

Hera-Beorc/Zeus-Dios/Canopus/Threedia/???/Ceres will casually facetank or chip down everything of interest -except- for Uriel. So far, this is even completely non-REM on my part!

However. Once Sandalphon's past 50% HP, she'll bind Hera-Beorc and Zeus Dios for ten turns, and Ceres will only cure 3 turns. Green Wee Jas can fit and perfectly heal 10 ten binds over two turns, but that drops the No-REM composition and I'm not sure if I want to do that. Is there anything non-REM that can save my hide from either Uriel or Sandalphon's uberbind?

Maybe try Mythril? It's got water resist so it can maybe make Sandalphon a bit more tankable, and as Mithril Edge it can also help tank Uriel when he's above 50%. The downside to being uvoed is that it's not doing any wood damage though.

EDIT: Should note that if you use Mythril, and then use Threedia without using Mythril again, you can't get Hera-Beorc back to the leader slot.

Mythril actually sounds pretty viable. That 4 turn CD should make switching back to Hera-Beorc for Raphael pretty stress free as well.

Significant thing about God Rush is getting Gaia without actually running Gaia. (http://imgur.com/hewdsNA)

Went from Gabriel Sun Quan at +258 and Beyzul at +2 to Sun Quan at +290 and Beyzul at +18. Can't remember how many stones, I spent seven but a lot were on box space so I wouldn't have to take the time to sort my eggs during farming.

oh
g/g alraune will avoid the god bind and, with Ceres' row heal along her own, will heal 6 turns with a row heal. Combine with her active, which heals 3 turns, and problem solved.

Chirei wins again

edit: yatagarasu was my first thought, but you need a little more HP to survive Raphael even with .70*.5*.95 damage reductions. With Alraune you don't need any plus eggs!

... man, this is some existential crisis. "Why am I playing this?"

With Ariel skill maxed, I bought an hour's worth of Castle of Satan in the Abyss because mono-light teams tear that shit apart.
wait I don't have Ariel friends.

I used to do this with TAMADRApurin, let's go back to the old days.
wait what happened to all my purin friends?

Only two level capped purins, much less +297. No big deal, my Purin used to be an ordinary dog like them. Let's have at it.

A Flampy appeared. Killing the other two mobs next to it was no issue, but it almost singlehandedly killed me and my mere 21500~ HP.

"Mere" 21500 HP? That used to be pretty hefty.

When Talos Abyss debuted with Badpys, I wrecked that stuff with Purin. "I'll get Badpys here so I can skillmax Beelzebub, and I can use Beelzebub later to get Shynpys to skillmax TAMADRApurin." They're both skill maxed, but I still haven't gone back to using Purin with the exception of Trifruit farming.

I won't give up on you yet, Big Dog. :c

Why do the pys on one-time lv10 have 24hp!
I even managed to have all colours 2 turns in a row, but I freaking missed the light combo. (why is my bastet team rainbow I'll never know)
and so the pys survived with 1 hp and I died. I don't know why but I'm puzzling so badly when doing this lv10. Can't count the number of times I just choked on athena.
so salty.

That wood row team of mine?  When it's done it should be able to beat SS Zeus handily.  I got him down almost two-thirds with a level one un-ult'd Artemis leading the way.  (Of course, a giant part of my success is due to OP A. Ceres courtesy of the rabbit, but still.)

Rather liking how things are going with both that and my water row team which is farther along.  It's refreshing playing teams that aren't "kill everything right away or die", it truly is.

Jesus fucking christ. I just died in Extreme God Rush... With Zeus at 5% health, after fighting him for 250 turns. I took him from 50% back up to full four times. I would have fucking killed him, but I FORGOT TO SWITCH TO BEYZUL and then I FUCKED UP MY COMBO TO HEAL OFF HIS BIND SO I COULD GO BACK TO STALLING. I am so frustrated right now. I was in this dungeon for like two hours, and by every single conceivable account I should have won, but I died because I fucked it up massively, twice.

 :(



 :( :(

Edit: Let's learn from my mistakes, because as long as you learn from your mistakes making them is okay.

Good thing I learned: I can clear Extreme God Rush, provided I get Beelzebub or Fat Dragon. I don't know if I can take Satan, I think I can as long as my fight with Dios doesn't go too badly. It takes a monstrously long time, but it's fairly safe.

Bad thing I learned: I don't learn from my mistakes. I keep forgetting my actives. Over and over. I forget to switch to Beyzul or I forget to activate Sun Quan before I burst and I lose. This is the twentieth time this has happened and I haven't learned. That is... So frustrating.

Yeah, I had to use most of my actives on Karin with this team, which made me worry a bit. Ronia being up for Leilan helped, though, and everything past her was 75% resisted.

This was actually sort of inspired by the Zhao Yun run on the stream; while a 1 combo off an enhanced full fire board isn't quite enough for Starlight Sanctuary Zeus...the fact that it's "not quite enough" instead of "nowhere near enough" meant Fagan would die to it.

One perk of dual Beelzebub in that dungeon: facetanking Karin.

I think Awoken Venus would be more appropriate, resisting Karin to the point of surviving her hits, getting 2x damage on Byakko (the other largely threatening China girl), and resisting Sakuya and Fagan regardless. Normal damage against Leilan as well; the only gimped damage is water, but that doesn't mean anything against Meimei anyways.

You can even use TAMADRApurin as a damage enhance against Fagan :V :V :V

Yeah, I had to use most of my actives on Karin with this team, which made me worry a bit. Ronia being up for Leilan helped, though, and everything past her was 75% resisted.

This was actually sort of inspired by the Zhao Yun run on the stream; while a 1 combo off an enhanced full fire board isn't quite enough for Starlight Sanctuary Zeus...the fact that it's "not quite enough" instead of "nowhere near enough" meant Fagan would die to it.

Come to think of it, I could just put Skuld on the team for some help fighting Leilan. Her active would mesh perfectly with a green team and Ceres' bind removal, should it ever be needed.

One perk of dual Beelzebub in that dungeon: facetanking Karin.

I think Awoken Venus would be more appropriate, resisting Karin to the point of surviving her hits, getting 2x damage on Byakko (the other largely threatening China girl), and resisting Sakuya and Fagan regardless.

You can even use TAMADRApurin as a damage enhance against Fagan :V :V :V

Also a valid point. Though I'd still be really worried about taking her down, regardless, since my Awoken Venus team is... well, squishy. That, and I have no Awoken Venus friends. :(

Well, you can nonchalantly tank Karin all day as long as she's above 20% HP. Saving up enough burst to kill Suzaku in two turns can't be that bad? On the other hand, you'd also need to hurry up and kill Byakko quickly after Suzaku.  I also dunno what your light and/or healer teams look like! (^^;

In all honesty, I don't know the best way to build an Awoken Venus team to use her to her full potential-- unlike Hades or Ceres, who I have a ton of options for. Most of my good light types are TPA users, not row users. Meanwhile I have a good amount of devil TPA users/orbchangers and once I get Awoken Parvati and relevant teammates set up, my Ceres team will be pretty ace too.

My current team is:
Venus/LMeta/Thor/Valk/TAMApurin

So with another Awoken Venus friend, that's 9 rows with a nice boost from Purin. Also high RCV and bind removing potential. But pretty sad in the realm of punching power without Thor or Purin's boosts. I really don't know how I'd handle Fagan, most importantly, because while I could fairly easily tank him up until 30%, I'd have to blast through that last bit in one shot or be obliterated and that worries me since I have very, very few orbmakers on the team.

I could potentially drop LMeta for Apocalypse, though, and then pop Valk. That may work nicely. Sure wish I could skill him up.
/me glares at EU for being able to right now while we can't.

You have 6 rows, at this point, you probably just care about actives more than anything else. I'd say go with Valk/Apollo/Verche/flex with the flex being Thor/Izanagi/Lmeta/Tamapurin depending on your needs. If you have Apoc, I'd probably drop Verche for him or put him in the flex spot.

Izanagi is a no, since he won't boost Venus, whose awoken form is Devil/Healer.  On a Light-based team, Purin would be more effective.

The biggest issue with such a set is lack of burstability. 6.25x is... not a lot. Though with 9-10 rows it's the equivalent of 12.25x which is better, but I worry that I'll still choke under some circumstances. Which is why I felt Thor was much more vital, since he does light burst active AND comes with two rows. That's 18.375x; with TAMApurin it'll be one less row but looking at 24.625x instead. Which is pretty good. The problem is it'd require both Thor and Purin to be on the team to reach that level of row potential since Valk (who is always neglected compared to her colorful sisters), Verche, and Apollo lack rows.

Post by: The Greatest Dog on May 07, 2015, 08:12:40 PM
Here's my theorycrafting.
You need to burst down Suzaku pretty quickly, but you also need to take down Byakko pretty quickly after that. Everything else is kind of a non-issue except Fagan at 30% (which means that a single turn of burst, instead of Thor's three turn enhance, is probably better for killing Fagan.)

When it comes down to downing Suzaku, you can probably use an Apocalypse to both kill her and heal up for Byakko's pre-emptive at the same time. Byakko should -probably maybe-? die to a good Apollo conversion after that because 1,500,000 dark HP is pretty low altogether.

From there, you have all the time in the world to stall and get what you need back up. Would you feel comfortable running two comparatively high cooldown conversions?

When I'm running with 6.25x Beelzebubs, it feels like a little bit more than that simply because Beelzebub has crazy ATK stats. If only Venus had that orb enhance already, such that you could go Apocalypse > Apollo for a free 2.8x burst!

Too late, already looked. Reminds me of when I took Lucifer into an early level 7 challenge dungeon; spent so long on Thothdet (and ended up stoning twice) just to get them to where I could save a gravity for Ra and drop everything else to clear the wave. :ohdear:

Good job, though! Beyzul strats are real.

Post by: commandercool on May 07, 2015, 11:44:30 PM
Here's the breakdown in the event that anyone ever wants to attempt this.

First, this team had around 1100 +eggs. Not sure how necessary they were, I was never at a low enough amount of HP due to just raw damage that I was directly saved by HP eggs, but the recovery was no doubt very helpful. Neptune is probably not strictly necessary, but he makes floor four a lot easier partly because he counters Fat Dragon, partly because his poison resist hurts Beelzebub a lot, and partly because he allows you to tank Jupiter Genesis forever so you can go into floor four with full actives in case you need to burst Satan. I won't say numerous Beyzul skillups are required exactly, but they're kind of required.

Floor one is easy. As long as you can manage hearts reasonably well you can't die. Damage is awful because 7778 defense with resist is actually a lot for a 3.375x team, but you can chip Gaia away with two-prongs and poison.

Floor two is, again, easy. My damage was high enough that I could burst Athena past all of her green HP from just over half without switching to Beyzul, so that's probably safer than chipping her down and messing around with the resistance once she gets to low HP. You can't switch leaders here, you will die to Dios' pre-emptive.

Floor three could be kind of tricky if you mess up. Dios' attacks from his top half are among the highest damage anything in the dungeon can do, so combo count has to stay high to keep the hearts coming. Try to remember to sneak in a poison before he shields himself, but I forgot both times and it didn't matter. Feel free to use orbchanges carefully to get him past his green HP faster. Once he becomes white he'll take damage much faster, and Jupiter Genesis is technically the most dangerous part of the dungeon. Don't use actives if at all possible just in case you need them on floor four.

Four is easy if you get Beelzebub or Fat Dragon. Satan shouldn't be a problem, but I got Beel both times so I don't actually know what happens in the event of Satan for sure. A full-power burst should be plenty to take him out, for maximum safety probably chip away at him for a while before delaying him and swapping. If you get Beel, just keep poison under control and burst him around half. It's okay to switch to Beyzul to make sure he goes down, damage probably isn't quite high enough to do 50% otherwise. Try to keep one heartmaker up if possible, just in case shit does down before you can switch Beyzul back out.

Floor five is a bitch. Maybe someone with stronger combo skills could manage it better than I did, but keeping up six combos every turn is above my pay grade, so chipping Zeus takes forever. For maximum safety I recommend dropping him to half before attempting to burst him and safely clearing his bind just in case you fuck up and an emergency happens. Carefully maintain the board and keep an eye on it, and if you see an opportunity for a two-row, six-combo burst, delay him and take it. Don't be an idiot like me and forget to use actives. I just bursted him with five-combo boards and hoped for a skyfall, and it took three tries before I actually got it, so I had to swap back and forth several times and grind through a LOT of HP. Not sure at what point bursting him is actually safe, but I tried to do it around 40%. 75% is probably okay, but I didn't want to take any risks.



On an unrelated note, finally cleared Legendary Mountain Path. Kind of forgot it was there or I would've done it earlier. Easy with Verdandi. Will probably do Legendary Hills also with Verdandi later.

Hot damn. It's really gratifying to see a team like this pull through. It really seems to be worth more than the sum of its parts, as most people wouldn't rank Gabriel, Ruka, or especially Beyzul highly individually! I would easily believe it if you're the first person to tackle it with Beyzul. Wouldn't know for sure, though, because PAD has too many players.

Any chances of taking down the other rushes like this? True Dragon Realm would seem plausible if not for Threedia being an asshat and the chance of Fatty dragon appearing. :c

too right.  The only bad thing is it has some pretty specific REM cards, so most people won't be able to copy it.

One nice point: it isn't a team for one specific descend; it looks like it could handle other descends pretty well also.

True Dragon Realm seems possible, but it would take some crazy maneuvering to take down Threedia. Does anyone know what the actual appearance rate of Fat Dragon is? I could bring Neptune again for him, but I would rather have better damage from I&I, since there are a lot of places I just can't stall and would just have to fight.

Hera Rush would be possible, even downright easy, if Hera-Ur was any floor but the first. I think I can still clear it if I ever get my hands on Andromeda if I can figure out the right configuration of skillboosts and low-cooldown skills to burst her down instantly. As it is now though, it seems virtually impossible. The math on Ur just doesn't add up.

Devil Rush seems possible with Neptune, but unfortunately I think what it comes down to is that I need to hope for the 40% poison resist on Beel's pre-emptive or I lose. I don't think I can burst past Mephistopheles without using actives, so I need Neptune to tank him, and that means I can't use Skuld or Karin to counter the poison board.

Hey cmdcool you should totally attempt Extreme Endless Corridors with that team once it becomes a thing and finish it and post in all of the pad-related pages just to prove everyone how fucking awesome this setup is.

(Meanwhile, I will slowly hope to eventually get a Femme so I can maybe perhaps do a fire version of your team.)

I'll give it a try. Never taken the time to actually finish True Endless Corridors with it, but I know it's very plausible. Extreme Endless might be possible, I haven't really looked at it yet.

That is a really neat team.  Gabriel into Beyzul is a good combo.  too right.  The only bad thing is it has some pretty specific REM cards, so most people won't be able to copy it.

Thanks. Yeah, the subs are not flexible at all unfortunately. It's hard to build, and it's also hard to slot in situational subs to handle tricky spots. If anyone gets dropped from the team it's usually Beyzul, since I can still burst hard without him, but it's rare that I have the opportunity to do that.

I was lucky to pull what I did. Still no luck with Andromeda, but the game was very generous with blue healers for me for a while. There's really nothing in the game I want right now but Andro, so I'll keep saving up and hopefully pull her eventually. That would make the team really nuts.

One nice point: it isn't a team for one specific descend; it looks like it could handle other descends pretty well also.

It could and has. I've cleared every normal descend except Zhao Yun (and he is possible, just too risky/inconsistent to bother with) with it. And a handful of restricted descends too. It's a strong, flexible team. Gabriel is monstrously underrated, and Beyzul even more so.

Post by: The Greatest Dog on May 08, 2015, 03:27:32 AM
I think there's possibly enough leeway that you can do things like pair with even Awoken Lakshmi, I&I, Neptune, Sun Quan, or even Andromeda depending on what the needs are.

That said, if you're not pairing up with Sun Quan or I&I, your available sub pool becomes larger than before.
Wadatsumi is a perfectly valid delay, though not as awesome as Sun Quan. Siegfried isn't a total loss over Reine as his HP stat is so swole.
Karin>Amberjack sets up a really powerful board in general, and doubly so if you pair with Awoken Lakshmi.
Feel free to field Bonia if you like. If you have a way to turn those dark orbs to blue (Gabriel+Reine, or just Hatsume) then the orb enhance by Wadatsumi shines the most.
Uvo Starling has huge stats in both HP and RCV.
Zeus Mercury has high ATK, RCV, and a full board conversion; what could possibly go wrong? :V

It's easy to see the value of a silver egg like Ruka in this team, but Snow White also deserves a special mention for being an unbindable cleric who makes hearts every six turns.
Skuld and Hermes are also a big deal.

Because Beyzul's boost is just to all water cards, it's really easy to find subs for him. The only converter who doesn't work for him is Noah. :V
Though, it might just be we have this idea that Blue has to consist solely of healers simply because of Sun Quan and I&I.

Oh. Bodin and his triple row and triple prongs is a thing, too. His HP drain might help keep Beyzul at max life as well.

tldr; basically most of what makes Awoken Lakshmi viable because big blue
Title: Re: Puzzle and Dragons Thread 20 - The thread is now Xuanzang, 20 posts or less only
Post by: commandercool on May 08, 2015, 03:45:38 AM
I have considered using a non-healer version of the team, but I choose not to so far solely because of Sun Quan's active. The team is extremely hard up for sub slots because Beyzul takes up space even though his active doesn't contribute any utility, so the fact that Sun Quan fills two roles in one while also having great awakenings means he's worth severely restricting my sub pool for. And now that I've started hypermaxing everything I'm kind of committed.

That said, it might work for other people for at least some dungeons. The fact that Gabriel is capable of tanking most of the game means that you can afford to use some weird sub choices because you have a lot of time to set up weird stuff like Wadatsumi's active. Maybe I'll try a non-REM sub version some day just for curiosity. And I'd be very interested to hear what happens if anyone else tries something like that.

While technically I can pair with leaders like Andromeda or Awoken Lakshmi, leader skills that provide less offense and more defense tend to be better in my experience because stalling with just x2 HP is hard. The extra damage rarely matters when I can survive longer and do even more over a longer period of time. That said, they could totally be the key to Dragon Rush and similar situations.

These are the leads I use right now:

I&I: Most commonly used. A lot of that is just because they're easily found hypermax. High damage damage and boost to HP are useful. Active is semi-useless, usually just speeding up things that could be easily stalled.

Metatron: Required for a lot of descends. Slightly lower HP and much lower burst damage than I&I, but better recovery and bind resist are nice. The extra skillboost is occasionally absolutely necessary. Also common to find hypermax. Would prefer Wetatron, but I have never seen a hypermax one.

Neptune: Much lower damage than the others, but much better survivability in specific situations. Active is usually basically useless. Stats are not well-suited for this kind of team, but he gets away with it because his resist is so useful when it comes up. Almost never used because his applications are so limited.

Sun Quan (U/W ultimate): On paper he's my preferred friend leader. One less row than I&I and slightly lower HP, but better recovery and his active is infinitely more useful. There are so many situations where the ability to delay twice in quick succession is an absolute game changer. Makes Beyzul switching much safer. Unfortunately, they don't seem to exist hypermax. For everyone worrying that he obsoleted Metatron when he was revealed nobody seems to have adopted him at all. Maybe some day.

Everything else I've tried has been of fairly limited use. I messed around with Skuld for a while, but the amazing active wasn't worth the much lower HP and incompatible awoken skills. Andromeda is interesting because she frees up my Ruka slot for another utility sub, but the right situation for her hasn't quite come up yet. I suspect she's the key to beating some of the stuff my team can't handle right now, I just have to think through some different options.

I had not considered it, but she makes a decent friend even with wood as her subelement.  She's a decent mult, boosts HP, helps punch through enemies while I charge actives/vs. fire enemies, and has a skill that jives with the rest of my team because I currently lack an orb enhancer for wood on here yet.

Also she has that random wood row for some reason and I love it.

Post by: MatsuriSakuragi on May 08, 2015, 03:34:37 PM
So I think we've figured out a safe Sandalphon farming team for Awoken Venus on IRC:

Awoken Venus/Awoken Ceres/LMeta/Kushinada/Light Orb Changer of your choice

Venus trivializes Unicorn, Archangel, Gabriel, Michael, the second half of Uriel (just try to burst him down quickly), and Sandalphon more or less, since she's not affected by the 10-turn bind. (neither is Ceres or LMeta).
Ceres and LMeta combined can more or less take care of Kushi and the Light orb changer (I'll be using Apollo for HP's sake) once they do get bound-- their actives will remove 5 turns of binding and a simple row of hearts could eliminate the rest, but it's not a serious need since Venus reduces Performance of Judgment to 4-digit damage, most of which will be recovered every turn since there are 7 recovery awakenings, giving 3500 HP per turn.
Raphael is the only major threat because even with 75% light resist, his fuckoff attack will still do 30k+ damage. This is where Kushi comes in.

The only real major flaw is that Ceres won't get boosted damage since she's not a healer or a light type in Awoken form. But she's still a vital piece of the team so she stays. :V
EDIT: (On second look, she really isn't. I could honestly put TAMADRApurin in her place and he'd get the boost, is bindproof, and has an additional damage boost that could be really useful too. Or at least take some of the grind out.)


EDIT 2: AAAAAND I just realized that Sandalphon is a no dupe dungeon. Fuck this game, I swear. That said, I guess I could use a Kirin friend leader and get significantly higher damage (and everything would still work since all colors are covered). There isn't anything unsurvivable in the dungeon at 75% reduction that 50% can't handle just about as well, the only catch being Sandalphon's Performance of Judgment (and Kirin would absolutely NEED the bind removal). Kushi still makes Raphael survivable.

Unbindable, a skillboost, a skillbind resist, 1000 autoheal, and a TPA?  What the crap, game?  I wish the real LMeta's Awakenings were that awesome!  Sure she's still an unbindable bind curer, but...that TPA...Would provide a much needed boost in her potential output.  (Part of why I like chibi-LMeta, to be honest, though I don't own one)

Tinnin's active is different from both archangel and LMeta, but can be skilled up from both Saint Seiya collab and the upcoming Tinnin Tamadra from PADBT collab dungeon. Hence why I already skill maxed mine without needing pys.
It's 7cd (11cd at lv1) so it's slower than LMeta by 1 turn at max skill lv.
Heals rcv x7 and cures 2 turns of bind, which is pretty much the same as LMeta considering LMeta has a higher base rcv.

Her LS is 100% hp Light atkx4 which is terribly outdated and has no use outside of being a farm lead.

For the record, my experimenting has shown that Kirin works REALLY well with Awoken Venus, should you ever wish to try the combination. (Especially with an Athena sub and light orb changer.)

Man, being able to farm Fagan skillups any day of the year is great.

Is it bad that I consider Kouryuu of the Celestial Pole a Fagan skill up instead of Sakuya's?

Well saying it's a Sakuya skill up implies you HAVE a Sakuya.

I'm not bitter at all, nope.

Are the active and leader skill the same? Would not play (I mean, aside ftom the fact that she's just straight-up not blue), but my needs are not the same as most. OG Metatron chugs on.

I actually really want Tinnin because she would replace OG Metatron in my Vegito team. :V

Right now my only real plans for Awoken Venus is to use her to farm Sandalphon, but I suppose she'll have plenty of uses as time goes on.

My twinlit team had a problem: the dungeon starts with skills on turn zero not turn one, so both Sieg and Lilith needed one more skillup. I used the coin dungeons to get a Swallowtail, which starts out at 10 turns (the same as Lilith max-skill), and what I just realized is it has a skill-boost awakening! I don't need to skill up Sieg any more!
Team: Sieg skill 3 (9 turns), Bodin (3 boosts), Echidna, Swallowtail (1 boost), Bubblie (2 boosts), friend Bodin (3 boosts). That's nine boosts so Sieg is ready as I zone in. Swallowtail is more than ready two turns later, and Echidna more than ready one turn after that.

PDX has an entry for a potential godfest in the upcoming events that's rumored to be Hero/JP2 on the 15th. Another chance to get Andromeda? I was saving up for PAD Academy because she's in that, but I'd rather have a godfest so I have a chance to get special gods. And JP2 is a decent second pantheon since all of the ones I don't have (Izanagi, Okuninushi, and Kushinada) are very interesting to me. Hope it's true. because I'm starting to amass stones again. Should be able to get 12-13 pulls.

I believe it. But unless I did my math wrong (which is completely likely) isn't pulling one specific hero god more likely from the Academy REM than it is from a godfest? The rest of the stuff from Academy will probably be trash (though I do kind of want Isis, mildly) but Andromeda is all that matters.

I rolled two of her, so.

Don't do it anyway. Both me and Trance have had sprees of 10+ rolls with only silvers.

It seems like a better rate, but frankly what you'd get from the normal rem is more useful.

Faffing about with Aldebaran, I got reminded that despite it generally being easy I should still respect it as a boss, or suffer the consequences.  Was just messing around with Athena like usual, figuring it'd be using Auto-Recover since I hadnt nuked it...turns out I had forgotten when its HP gets too low it gets rather miffed.

Yeah, you gotta be really careful with him. At least his HP is bad, so you can try to burst him and if you fail you get a second turn to pop emergency actives.

No-stone cleared the newest Yamato rush! happened to S-rank too!

Got fatty on wave 2. Used Wood Dragonswordsman (Freshly off the REM last week! and just max skilled and levelled a few hours ago for this! haha!) for kaguchi's whole team bind on wave 5. She's p. good, but I feel like I have too many heart-breakers on my team.

It was a miracle I got past goemon.

Goemon's stats
5.5mil hp, perseverance above 50% hp
Pre-empt 25556 damage

Above 80% hp: 25556 damage

30~80%: randomly one of the following:
- 16k + Blind board
- random 7k~23k damage
- Randomly bind 3 monsters for 2~4 turns

Below 30%: 38334 damage

So as soon as I got hit with the pre-empt I realized... I couldn't use any of my heartbreakers because I need to heal in order to take another hit, and baggi shield is running out in 1 turn so I need to get him to under 50% quick.
Luckily, I had 7 green orbs so I just did 7c and it skyfell to 10c and hit Goemon exactly under 50% as shown in the SS.
However my lead got binded so I needed to stall 2 turns.
If he did 23k or bind my mon again my run is over, but he did 16k+blind twice!
So on the 2nd blind, I activated Liu Bei and did a 7c straight out of the blinded board and ko'ed him.

Shame I didn't record this. :< I totally wasn't expecting to clear this.

Having TAMADRApurin skillmaxed meant I could do stuff like pop him on Leilan to kill her before she moved, and to kill the Mystic Masks with only four light orbs and such.

Pandora skillmaxed! Now to decide who to give the Badpy I just got from Lv6 to...

Candidates:
Lumiel (SL1): I'd really like to make use of what feels like the most goddamn cute character in this game. And she doesn't have any other skillup options, so...
Haku (SL2): Chasers are a pain in the ass.
Beelzebub (SL1): A 5-turn enhance/heal does seem kinda cool.
DMeta (SL2): Don't really NEED to skillmax her but I guess it would be nice.
Awoken Hades (SL1): A 13-turn gravity with time extend would be pretty cool.

Awoken Venus (SL1) (No skillup feed yet)
LMeta (SL1) (Chasers are ass)
Izanagi (SL1) (Waiting this long for an Izanagi skillup only for it to be fat dragon is a slap in the face. I don't wanna feed those to something already maxed)

Welp, guess I need to be more careful in Lv. 5 than I had thought, even with the team I was using for it.  I totally forgot about the whole "Ares uses a gravity" thing.  Down went 51k HP in one turn, and my 4/4/1 team could not deal the damage needed to kill him(Heck, I didn't even make it out of his fire HP because I combo'd poorly so I only got like a 3 combo.  Even with my two rows that wasn't gonna work, though the lack of BOdin this attempt didn't help either since I didn't see O4rfish's on, and had to use a ulti-Hermes user I saw to replace.  More HP, but less Atk and two fewer rows so welp.)

https://www.padherder.com/user/MoogsParfait/teams/#145518

Michael is the only trouble if I fail to get him before the final Soul Scales, and then Sandy himself if I get Birdcaged.

Grr. I need to farm Sandy skillups.

I'm still planning to make this completely non-REM farm team for her. But I need a lot of green exp...
Hera-Beorc/Zeus-Dios/Canopus/Threedia/Alraune needs 23 million exp total :c

I think I may be motk's resident +egg martyr, because they seem to avoid me like the plague.

I am still 5 RCV eggs away from +297'ing my Horus. Star Vault never yielded me anything even remotely decent and the same applies to OoH and Door of Light & Shadow.

To compensate I have not gotten a single 3* egg from the REM for a very long time, the last one I got was mystic light knight and verche has been a blessing in my athena team.

Just cleared Challenge 7 with Gabriel using a Sun Quan friend who was nowhere near hypermax (in fact, I think it had no skillups and wasn't even max level) and it was so much easier than last time. I'm sure much of that was experience, but Sun Quan is so good with my team. Having two delays is such an incredible safety net, and the extra recovery really more than makes up for the missing health most of the time. I wish anyone anywhere but me gave half a shit about U/W Sun Quan.

Surprisingly so, actually. Assuming you have one of these max skilled and your two Awoken Horuses are also max skilled, you can keep the multiplier bonus going indefinitely.

Rider -> Awoken Horus 1 -> Rider -> Awoken Horus 2 -> Repeat.

Not only that, he covers green, has double TPA, has a skill lock resist (which, coupled with the two horuses, gives you 100%) and a skill boost which is always useful. His lack of RCV isn't a problem either since Awoken Horus already has so much of it.

Plus, with him in the team the only colors left are Light and Blue which is a very common combination (Hello LMeta, Reine, etc) so yeah I can see this guy being really good in Awoken Horus teams tbh.

Bonus Points: I needed that dub topa for a few evos too.


also on riders: p.hype, they're all as expected pretty useful, Kraken Rider feels like the star of them. Depends on Phoenix's numbers on active. Definitely built for some of the new awaken evos, and gonna be cool if next actual pantheon is an active ls type.

Those awakenings are like, pinpoint probably the most useful set to have in the game too. God damn.

Aw, my second serious True Endless run ended to truly unlikely orb rolls against Zeus. My team is so durable, it should never be in a position where I need to rely on orb drops at all to stay alive. Oh well, next time. I think I overcommitted actives on Hera. Between the +eggs and Gabriel buff my teams damage has become truly monstrous. I cleanly one-shotted Satan with a far-from-optimal two row screen. Not sure how much I overshot him by, but the message was clear: my damage is much higher than I think.

 I didn't get Andromeda. Over 200 stones so far in three different Hero godfests and I still don't have her. I'll probably never have her, and that's fine. I don't really need her.

(http://i.imgur.com/vNhsTiX.jpg)

Even though I came into the godfest telling myself not to get my hopes up at all, I'm still kind of dissapointed. That said, I got more trash pulls than I think is fair, but I did get enough good stuff to make it worth it.

-6 pulls were certain trash

-Tertiary Urd might as well be trash, but I'm keeping it in case it stacks better after her uvo. So it's box-clogging trash.

-Muse... Oops.. Sorry Suikama. Go pull Andro so the circle will be complete. No use at all for her right now, but she's obviously great.

-Izanagi: Basically the same as pulling Muse again, for most purposes. Didn't already own him. Think he's worth using over GZL on Athena?

-White Metatron: Great pull. Didn't already oen her, have wished I had her before. Not going to be a lead, but situational Gabriel sub for sure.

-Black Kali: Great. Excellent. Basically worth all 60 stones. Now I can run Awoken Ra/WKali/WKali/BKali/Sun Quan/Wkali if I want to. Most important, gives me an actual use for Devilits! Yaaaay!

-Yamato Takeru: My second copy, but heroes seem like they stack better than virtually anything else. Don't have a home for him per se, but I could if I wanted to.

Only two pantheon gods in twelve pulls sucks, honestly. But I got plenty of loot, so that's cool I guess. Plenty cool.

-Black Kali: Great. Excellent. Basically worth all 60 stones. Now I can run Awoken Ra/WKali/WKali/BKali/Sun Quan/Wkali if I want to. Most important, gives me an actual use for Devilits! Yaaaay!


wow i hate you

Nah. We can be no-Muse-bros!

As for me, I tossed 50 stam at Sandy just for fun and Gabe killed me.  I noticed after though tat there was a real chance my BOdin friemd would have screwed me over on floor 4, but maybe it can be done.  Playing on my phone is probably not a good idea either though.

Ohoho. My singular pull gave me... GZL?

Oh dear. TAMADRApurin is completely outclassed on Ariel, now, and I can afford to use a more rainbow TPA team.

 Still useful, though!  (http://imgur.com/RyCVBwJ) Took me a moment to realize I didn't match any red orbs there but I got a lucky skyfall. Seeing Athena output 2.2 million is satisfying.

-Izanagi: Basically the same as pulling Muse again, for most purposes. Didn't already own him. Think he's worth using over GZL on Athena?

Yes. Athena boosts god types, after all, which means that Izanagi will boost everyone on a team with her. And his HP is really nice too, of course. (I run a tank Athena team over a power based one, so I have over 33k hp with her lol)

Edit: tamadra guerilla tomorrow. Dunno if I'll roll for Bastet or sun quan at all now, because star vault usually follows...

Fair enough, the consistency probably matters a lot since I use her for farming. I can swap Verche for Apollo and GZL for Izanagi to get a shitload of extra HP at the expense of some speed. And it's not like GZL is going to waste because he does a ton of work on Verdandi.

Meanwhile, another six Kodama feeds, another zero skillups. Fuck me. Watched my roommate and his girlfriend go 3/4 on Sasuke skillups between them this morning too.

Meanwhile, another six Kodama feeds, another zero skillups. Fuck me. Watched my roommate and his girlfriend go 3/4 on Sasuke skillups between them this morning too.

That's basically how my Athena team rolls:

Athena/Valk (or Verche, depends on what dungeon you're running I guess)/Apollo/Izanagi/Odin/Athena.

Valk/Verche can keep the TPAs rolling in, and most of the damage will be generated by Athena just because she's just a monster. (You can feel free to replace Odin with Verche if you REALLY want but you will be super hurting for recovery if you do.) As long as you have light on hand, you can take most trash waves instantly. Or two TPA matches of wood. Either or, it's typically enough.

Odin's really just there as a stat stick with a recovery option. Since he has a ton of HP, he bulks up the team in a great way (as I said, my current team has 33k with a hypermax Athena friend), and my team isn't even fully max level yet-- though it's close, Valk doesn't stand to gain much stats between 80-100 so I just haven't really bothered. Everyone else is max though. Sometimes you need to eat a hit or two on alts, and the huge HP lets you do that, and Odin lets you gain +2000 per turn, with Gungnir as emergency HP as well.

And then you just unload on the boss by popping Apollo, Athena, and Izanagi, and TPA it up. Good, solid team with a slight bias toward survivability instead of maximum power, and fairly sustainable recovery thanks to Odin (otherwise it's absolute shit).

My current Athena is Athena/Verche/Valkyrie/GZL/Meimei/Athena. If I have to drop someone, either for s no-recovery or no-duplicates dungeon, green Odin is the placeholder. It's a lower-durability, faster, higher-damage version of your team I guess. My Apollo is almost max level skillmax, so he's ready soon.

Edit: I actually don't hate Forestbahn, now that I look at him. Not ideal by any means, but he could actually competently fill the hole on my hypothetical Perseus team. Green delay is rare.

"Oh hey, Threedia's dungeon works pretty much the same as the Seaway, right?  Maybe I can Athena it!"

Wave six:  "wait, Pure Smile is a preemp?  And it bound Echidna.  Lovely.  Least I can deal with it."*pops Perseus, uses his skill to free Ecchi then kills the wave in a couple turns*

Wave seven:"oh right, pre emptive skill guard."  *dies two turns later to Wild Talon Rake*  oh.  Right, he's actually way harder.  Whoops.

Numbered dragon #5 released, aptly named "Refive".

Absolutely not worth it though, since he requires three red fruits, Awoken Zeus Vulcan and Awoken Dancing Queen Hera-Ur to uvo. Which bumps his stats a measly bit, skyrockets his (already high) cost by 30 and gives him his only two useful awakenings. Oh, and also makes him a god subtype and light sub-element I guess (fire as main element).

So I feel like my Verdandi team isn't quite done yet. It's good, but it doesn't have fantastic burst damage, at least not consistently. Right now it's Verdandi/Cu Chu/Liu Bei/GZL/Godin/Verdandi, and I think Godin is the weak link. The good HP (not as good on Verdandi since he doesn't get the leader skill buff, but still fine) and skillboosts are good, but he doesn't give me much offensively and I feel like that's what I need right now. These are some of my other candidates:

-Susano: Again his active isn't offensive, but he gets the boost from GZL's active and has a prong, so he should be hitting a lot harder.

-Sasuke: Not great stats, but the prong and orbchange are okay. A standard orbchange seems to be the sweet spot for prongs teams, since it facilitates three prongs a little better than a double orbchange. I did not manage to get mine skillmax yesterday, I think he needs two more skillups.

-Medjed: He's red/green and his active buffs Verdandi. Not really better offensively than GZL though, in fact he's worse. Having both might be nice I guess.

-Verdandi: I have another Verdandi, so another crapton of HP and another set of orbchanges might pull more weight than Odin is right now. The extra hearts are nice because they let me stall strong bosses even with the relatively low recovery I have without Odin.

-Perseus: Active is similar to another Verdandi if not slightly better much of the time, but lack of prongs sucks. With him I'm 100% lock-immune. Still has the two skillboosts that Odin has, so that's nice.

-Armadel: Seems not that optimal since I already have 100% enhanced orbs, but she would work after a board change. Don't really want to be bothered skilling her up.

-King Woodsie: I mean, honestly, he does the work...

Wish I had Dino Rider instead of my mountain of Beast Riders, he would work pretty well in that slot. Or Delgado maybe.

How do you feel about Canopus? Like Almadel, but more health and he has a prong along with a skillboost. Longer cooldown and doesn't generate orbs though.

Lukewarm. He actually doesn't have more HP on a Verdani team, by quite a lot (4326 vs 5951), although he does have better attack and recovery. He's plausible to skillup, unlike her, although it would be a chore since he needs so many levels. And, when it comes down to it, the orb enhance active seems like the weakest option most of the time anyway. It definitely does have utility, but it's not very flexible. Am I underestimating it? It would definitely add some damage to my bursts, and that's what I want.

The more I think about it the more Susano seems like the best option. He's another card that gets buffed by GZL's active, and while his active isn't offensive it is so defensive that it probably buys me enough turns to finish off most bosses. Skilling him up is the only setback, since I don't want to farm Leek evo materials. I feel like he's the kind of general utility card I should have around anyway though, so I might as well raise one up and see how it does.

Getting leeks isn't hard. They're all over the dragon bowl dungeons, and I'm going to be farming the absolute shit out of the black one trying to max two Izanamis. It's really just the materials. And as those go, leeks aren't too bad. They don't need masks of any kind, and dragon plants are abundant. I just don't want to deal with storing them. It's such a hassle. Susano doesn't take an excessive number of skillups though, so I'll probably work on him once black bowl dragon comes out here.

Speaking of not getting dungeons, hasn't it been an unreasonably long time since we had Poring Tower? I guess I ignored it last time it was here so maybe it hasn't been as long as I think, but I need to finish my skillup-resistant Cu Chu and I don't want to do it through Heroes' Hideout.

I just tried Kali+Ra in True Endless Corridors and found it surprisingly easy to output damage despite not being great at combos. Maybe I just got lucky, but the team was well short of the version I intend to use (missing a lot of skillups, a ton of evolutions, and an entire Kali active) and despite flailing at the screen with no particular thought or planning I did okay. I think this is going to be really, really degenerate when it's done. :wat:

It was actually kind of an issue because fruit dragons had just come out in NA at that point so the skillups were largely useless for most people :V

I could have sworn we got HK literally BEFORE we got fruit dragons, which just added to the ridiculousness of it.

I'm a little conflicted about what to do with my +eggs. On one hand I'm well over half way done hypermaxing my entire Gabriel team, so I feel like I almost might as well finish it. On the other hand, at this point additional stats are a bit of a drop in the bucket and my other teams could use a hand. I could start Verdandi or even pre-emptively work on Ra. What do you guys think?

As that goes I'm inclined to do Ra even though he's way less efficient just because he's going to be my lead on that team. Kali works better, but she'll be a sub so only I will be able to use her fantastic power.

Okay, I'm going to sacrifice my poor cu chu to the Awoken Parvati gods so I don't have to farm up another one.  He's max skill, but I basically never use him and I have much better options for green orb changers at this point.

Definitely. And more importantly, you can't use him with a Parvati lead anyway (or at least not ideally), because he eats up hearts and those are kinda important for her.

My ID is the same as before 301,335,377

The main problem now is that i don't know which team i should focus after all those changes to the game.

Anyone willing to give a look at my box and suggest me what would be a good endgame team? Any help is really welcome.

Post by: MatsuriSakuragi on May 18, 2015, 09:49:57 PM
All right, here's mine, then.

1. Pandorable Versatility
Pandora/DMeta/Haku/Hanzo/Vamp
Alternate subs:
Persephone, Lu Bu, Ronia, Lilith, FA Lucifer, etc.
Tried and true, I use her for pretty much everything these days. Pandora <3

2. Do I Really Have to Use Kirin? Ugh, Fine.
Kirin/Apollo/Athena/Awoken Venus/Izanagi
Alternate subs:
LMeta, Valkyrie, Verche, TAMADRApurin, LKali

3. Skuld Smash
Skuld/UmiYama/BOdin/Reine/Orochi
Alternate subs:
Starling, Sun Quan (future)

4. Awoken Ceres (Experimental Tank)
Awoken Ceres/GOdin/Leilan/Viz Asgard/Skuld
Kind of just there for the sake of seeing what I could do with it.

5. Weekend Dungeon
King DeviTAMA/Skuld/BOdin/Leilan/GOdin
Nice and tanky with recovery options. Usually run with Bastet friend.

6. Old Faithful Athena
Athena (occasionally BOdin for no-dupe dungeons)/Valkyrie/Apollo/GOdin/Izanagi
Alternate subs:
Viz Asgard, Verche, Leilan

7. Versatile Devils
Just really any combination of devils as I need them, ranging from Ronia, Lu Bu, Awoken Hades, Pandora, Haku, Beelzebub leaders. It all varies based on need.

8. Obligatory Awoken Venus Team to Likely Be Replaced by Ult LKali Team
Awoken Venus/Apollo/Valkyrie/Athena/LKali
Works really well with a Kirin friend leader!

9. SOON. (My big project for these past couple months and months into the future)
Parvati/Michael/Liu Bei/Viz Asgard/Awoken Ceres
Alternate subs:
GOdin, Kushinada, Susano, etc

Oh why not, this sounds fun.

1. TPA Stabbing Party - Wd/Lt
Athena/GZL/Perseus/Rose/Verche
Bench subs:  Ecchi(Seaway, misc others), Indra(Alts, dropping Athena or Rose depending on friend for No Dupes)

2.  Tidal Wave
Hermes/(flex)/B/B Orochi/B/B Leviathan/B/G Karin
Rows for days.  Usually paired with BOdin.

3.  Oh right, I guess Sonia still exists.
RSonia/DQ Hera/King Baddie/Ecchi/Hera-Ur
If I ever get back to using this I will probably use Vamp in there someplace.

4.  Yet another random Devil team
DQ Hera/RSonia/DJ/King Baddie/Sleeping Beauty
I don't even know.  I especially don't know why my unevo'd RSonia's the one in here as opposed to my evo'd Lv. MAX one.

5.  Order of the Azure Dragon
B/G Karin/DMeta/flex/flex/flex
Will swap all sorts of stuff in as needed.  Currently running GZL/Kushi/Orochi in those slots.

6.  Balance of Nature
Freyja/Artemis/CuChu/Perseus/Fortoytops
A team I just realized I can make that's all balanced, for if I make Freyja switch to G/L.  Really wants Delgado.

7.  Row row row your wood
Artemis/Freyja/Perseus/Kushi/flex
Wood rows all day erryday.

8.???

Teams? Why not?

[1] Ye Olde Green Team
Love Deity, Feline Bastet/Liu Bei/Hobgoblin/Earth Knight/*
The team I started out with happens to be the one I use the least these days. The last slot can be anything wood-type depending on what I have.

[2] KILL IT WITH FIRE
Red-Winged Star Angel, Rozuel/Fire Wizard, Laila/Red Dragon Fruit/Red Dragon Fruit/Red Dragon Fruit
Orbchangers galore. Designed for maximum damage with little regard for anything else. I usually run this with a fire helper to increase attack even further.

[3] Wall of Water
Snow Globe Dragon Bleu/Incarnation of Seiryuu, Karin/Icedragon Plesios/Blue Dragon Fruit/Blue Dragon Fruit
There's a certain kind of feeling you get when you take heavy hits and dust yourself off like nothing happened. If the helper is another HP increaser the tankiness only gets better.

[4] Unfinished Light Team
Goddess of Secrets, Kali/Yellow Grimoire, Ars Nova/Angel/*/*
I'll finish this one someday...

Three stones on Star Vault, 49 +eggs. Including one rank-up. At first I was like "Am I sure I want to spend all these stones?" and then I was like "Oh yeah, if fifty +eggs dropped out of the REM instead of a Toytops just once I'd be thrilled, so yes". Ra went from never being fed anything ever to being huge in one go. Maybe I can have him hypermax before Awoken Ra comes out. Although I'd need one more Shynpy.

Post by: The Greatest Dog on May 19, 2015, 01:47:39 AM
I come back in here after a day and Hello Kitty is coming back <3 <3

If we're listing off our teams...

Return of One True Dog
TAMADRApurin/Valkyrie Rose/Ariel/Light Zhuge Liang/Apocalypse/TAMADRApurin
This team has seen a few changes after Godin, Regulus, and Verche got kicked out. It's nice having a full board changer that's on color and works with Valkyrie. Ariel provides a super short orb change and that's really valuable when you can't recover.

Blast Mode Belzemon
Beelzebub/Byakko/Cyclone Devil Dragon/Persephone/Neptune (or Ceres)/Beelzebub (or Ronia)
Byakko and CDD is the only combo I have. If I had Hanzo, it'd be totally better in the future, but I don't. :c
Persephone has only a few good awoken skills, but her active is godlike at 8cd and her HP and RCV pool is huge. Neptune gives me burst! Ceres gives me healing! The durability is huge!

Not so useless Angel v2
Ariel/Valkyrie Rose/Green Zhuge Liang/Suzaku/Athena/Ariel
A use for my newfound Zhuge Liang. Dual 4cd orb changers is super useful.

I still use Byakko?
Byakko/Persephone/Beelzebub/Neptune/Dill Sirius/Byakko
Byakko not making many rows is a lot more manageable when I run off TPAs instead of rows, and can sometimes get a Dill Sirius to alleviate a bad Seven Star.

Gold Keeper Killer
Ronia/Byakko/CDD/Folklore/Persephone/Lu Bu
Super self explanatory.

Get rich quick with One True God
Ascooby Doobis/Noah/Shiva/Wee Jas/Ronia/Ganesha
Enough HP to survive any singular turn. Combo it up.

Now that I think of it, L/L Ra is a healer, and while he doesn't have tremendous ATK or whatever, his HP is pretty big for a healer. This means you can have solid HP while having Sandalphon/Sun Quan compatibility.

Perhaps:
Ra/Sun Quan/LKali/Valk Rose/dark healer filler idk who

And he's unbindable, which is pretty cool.

Four star vault runs, five plus eggs, considering the results other people are getting, I'm wagering this isn't normal.

My teams are all really simple, really.

#1: The (Not So) Uttery Broken Piece of  Shit Bird
F/L Horus/GOdin/LMeta/Echidna/Chibi Lucifer

Although the team is kind of wonky, it does give me plenty of room to make mistakes, between Echidna's panic button, 2,5k autoheal, two heal actives, a bind clear and two bind immune members, so long as I can take a hit it isn't hard to recover back from it. The x25 is enough to carry me through most things, although unfortunately morning star is a completely useless active.

#2: Never Gonna Give This Up
MetalTyrannosmon/F/L Horus/Uriel/Gigas/Echidna

RCV on this team is moderate to bad, the amount of rows is absolutely non-existent, it has mediocre orb-changing and the enhancer could certainly be better. This is a byproduct of the team that carried me through the early game, and I have grown fond of it. Maybe I'll be able to make better use of this one day. Maybe.

#3: BURN EVERYTHING IN SIGHT
Echidna/F/L Horus/Uriel/Gigas/MetalTyrannosmon

Exactly the same as above, but swapping the positions of Echidna and Tyrannos, used mostly for farming low-end dungeons whenever necessary. Which isn't often, but y'know.

#4: Ballad of Gods
God Rose/GOdin/GZL/Verche/Izanagi

The Athena-Team-Without-Athena-Because-I-Have-No-Team-Cost-For-It. I'm still thinking of what I should swap in place of Athena, I was thinking GZL but somehow I don't think that will work. Mostly just for farming alt. dungeons, although I do use it whenever GZL just doesn't cut it.

#5: Can This Even Be Considered A Team?
Rodin

The "Let's Put These Ronia Friends To Good Use" Team. Challenge Mode Farming.

#6: This Team Saw Very Little Actual Use
LMeta/Angelion/Echidna/God Rose/KShynee

The LMeta Team which was pretty much immediately outclassed as soon as I got my hands on a working god team. I used to use this whenever GZL just didn't cut it but that role goes to the Not!Athena team now. Still keep it around for some reason.

#7: This Deals Way More Damage Than It Has Any Right To
GZL/Liu Bei/Michael/Leeza/G/R Cu Chu

The GZL team which has carried me through many dungeons. Outdamages my Horus team in every way conceivable, although the below 80% HP requirement is problematic, to say the least. I tend to use this for most dungeons.

#8: Top-Tier Team Amirite?
GZL/Yellow Evolution Mask/Green Evolution Mask/Yellow Evolution Mask/Blue Evolution Mask

"Get All Them S-Ranks" Team. TAMADRAs Ahoy!

That's a bit low but fairly normal.  They're talking about getting tons of plusses for multiple full bars of stamina. 

My teams: https://www.padherder.com/user/o4rfish/teams/

I usually have Bodin supers team slot 1, Qiao teams in slots 2 and 3, Luci in slots 7 and 8, and whatever team else in the rest.

What it comes down to with Star Vault is that you have to run it a lot of times to iron out the variability. You will tend toward around two eggs a run, but individual runs (and therefre small batches) can be all over the map. So for four runs, low but not terribly unexpected. If you say a 1.2 average over 20+ runs, then it would be cause for alarm. Out of the 25 runs I did today I had two with five +eggs and three with zero.

I use your I&I for all-att conditionals sometimes, though I have a God team for the easier versions of those which I use more often now on the rare instances I run em.

Also.

Avalon Drake
/me 's eyes light up

I will be bugging you a lot for this in a couple of weeks once your classes are out probably.  Be ready.

(Run it if you're going G/L hybrid Athena like me, though I do not know if you have GZL or not.  Otherwise it's still a fantastic card to use with her given the stats, Awakenings, and -that active-.  Bonus points if you decide you wanna do a wood rows team later, given IIRC it carries two.)

Possible Athena team to make:
Athena/Verche/LValk/AvalonDrake/???/[Athena] I've given up on trying to know what you have to tell you what to put in the other slot, haha.  If you have GZL, he'd work wonderfully, though I don't know what stages you have everything in to know if you can afford this sorta team at all.

EDIT:  Also, spend your stam if you have time.  Maintenance at 3am EST.

Since my evo rush doesn't start until late tomorrow and I had just a few things I needed for Parvati, Lu Bu, and Kali, I bought the dungeon  and spent four stones on it.

I needed three dub-emelits.

I only got two.

I got 10+ of LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE.

Can anybody think of ways Gabriel can get past the first-turn Hera-Ur in Hera Rush? If I can beat her I should have no trouble beating the dungeon. Maybe subbing out Beyzul for Dmeta to get enough skillboosts to smash her before she can move, but it might take a lot of costly tinkering.

Is there an unorthodox friend lead or something that I'm overlooking to help me either handle the ten-turn water bind somehow, or else just immediately one-shot her?

Most people's strats involve stacking skillboosts and hitting over her. She won't use the water bind if you knock her HP into the Dark range I believe, but then you're at risk of High Kicks.

From how it looks, you are likely not going to need Asgard and Ceres in at the same time - only one should be enough to help keep you alive. I'm sort of leaning towards keeping Asgard for HP though.

I like awoken ceres but there's not much point to having her in a Parvati team - plenty of RCV as it is, and the whole concept of Parvati means you'll be matching lots of hearts anyway so her active is wasted.  Until you get a better option like Perseus or Meimei, I'd keep Asgard in there as the tank.

Re: your liu bei awakenings, did you initially awaken him with baby tamadras?  Maybe some more activated on him and you didn't notice.

Were the last of Liu's Awakenings via baby TAMAs?

Fake edit:  EDIBLE...>:|

Also I figured out that when my wood team is stronger, I MIGHT be able to beat Phoenix in Vulcan after all.  I just need to be prepped to eat an Eternal Flare.

Hit as close to half without reaching it as possible, wait til sixth turn then burst with all I have; it will use Flare instead of resurrecting because Flare has priority.  Then I get one last turn to blow the rest of its HP up.

It's ugly, but it might be possible someday.

The game keeps counting awakenings even after you already have all of the monster's awakenings. So if your Liu Bei is un-uvo'ed but you fed him six tamas, he'll have awakening level 6 despite only having 4 awakenings. Therefore, once you uvo him, he'll already have two of the three tpas because his awakening level is already at 6.

This is very useful for things like Folklore, where you can just feed him a bajillion Antikytheras before uvo'ing and then immediately get max awakening without feeding a single tamadra.

So I decided to play Zeus-V again.  Currently stuck on Phoenix, as could be expected.  Failed my burst like 3-4 times so far.  Ugh, so close, too at least once, but alas.  At least it doesn't hit hard outside of Eternal Flare, so I can't really die unless I'm trying just about.

Y'know, this is gonna suck if I end up dying after all this, haha.

EDIT:  Spent over an hour fighting Phoenix.  I am not even thinking of coming back with this team until I get my skills upped.  Still, in the end I made it to Ares which is farther than I expected to get.

the challenge is actually acquiring this guy. i'm fearing for what materials we need to acquire him, as this is the UVO form.

and what would his dungeon be like?!

re: the D/L golems, now they're actually desirable pulls from the REM. lol

http://pad.gungho.jp/member/150522_live_zaerog.html

Zaerog Infinity Descended! utilizes the Legend Dungeon mechanics that was originally scrapped. Monsters start at LV1 and gain EXP as they defeat enemies. The lower their cost, the more EXP they will gain from beating enemies.

Zaerog Infinity requires the following monsters to UVO:

Maleficent Dragon Lord, Zaerog
Unyielding Samurai Dragon King, Zaerog
Bold Pirate Dragon King, Zaerog
Dark Jewel
Water Jewel

Yep, I knew Zaerog not being a two-edged sword was too good to be true.

Also the 99 team cost, because gungho didn't learn with old!zaerog and old!fagan, apparently.

Also, apparently their way of naming Zaerog uvos has basically descended into "Add More Strong Sounding Words". Come on, Zaerog Infinity? These are like complete opposites!
someone please get the joke

For the record, his AS is "increase skyfall chance for 3 turn + reduce other skill cd by 1 turn" and his LS is dragon type stats raise by a little + damage multiplier bonus starting at two dark combos, which scales up to x6.

On one hand, this is a legitimately really freaking good dragon leader and it's zaerog so I am slightly hyped.

On the other hand, 99 cost, ridiculous evo mats and "LET'S MAKE DARK EVEN MORE BALANCED GUIZE"

Although he is dark physical so there is that.

Zaerog is the Alpha and the Omega of PAD. The Beginning and the End.

Regarding 99 team cost, this Zaerog Infinity, assuming his passive Dragon type boost is x1.2, gives him +297 stats of 7308 HP / 3060 ATK / 737 RCV (5075/2125/512 base) if you have two Zaerog Infinity leads. On top of this, his maximum multiplier from combo matches is x36. His stats and awakenings and general kit alone makes him far worth 99 Cost compared to old!Zaerog and old!fagan.

Regarding his ultimate evolution materials, for many people who would try to acquire him, they can purchase Ultimate Dragon Rush dungeon and farm it until they get 3 Zaerogs, which they can just worry about ultimate evolving. His requirements are far easier than Refive, who I re-iterate needs a fucking UVO Hera-Ur, and Hera-Ur does not drop as Awoken Hera-Ur and needs 3 goddamn jewels.

Two skill boosts, two rows, and bind immunity? That's an awoken skill pool that most mobs can only dream of having! Almost certainly makes running Light Zhuge Liang over Athena worth it.
Gotta skill up Apocalypse as well. With ~*~all these skill boosts~*~ I can have him up in three turns!

That seems fair, skilling up an Apocalypse would cost you waaaaay more than 11. The problem is all the experience you need to feed into those golems to get them into that form. Actually, that isn't that bad either. Grinding up the three colored golems is probably the worst.

Meanwhile, I'm still sad I lack Valkitty and know rolling again is a bad idea. But I have literally everyone else, so...

Also that IS a steep price for the new Golems. I think the hardest part is actually GETTING golems now since they don't come from REM anymore, at least not the baby ones. And I certainly don't wanna fuse away my dear max skill/awakening Viz Asgard, either :(

And what's worse is that I'll need a total of two of each RGB golem and 22 Gold Keepers to make both. Ouch.

EDIT:

- These two Machine type replacements are temporary until new game version comes out to support 3 types on a card. (Thanks to recife@PF for the reminder)

A slight upside of this whole golem farming thing is that the Keeper dungeons secretly have amazing +egg rates, so if we need to be grinding something for golems those are a pretty good deal.

That is also a good point, yes.

Meanwhile, ult Kali made. Now to just max her level, max skill her, and work on Kotaro meanwhile. Delicious x36 supplemented by Awoken Venus insurance. :*

Current team setup is:

Kali/Awoken Venus/BOdin/Valkyrie/Izanagi

What I plan on making it:

Kali/Awoken Venus/BOdin/Kotaro/Sun Quan

That way I get a nice delay user that can boost the four healers on the team by x2 for 2 turns. BOdin and Kotaro provide sweet HP.

I ended up clearing it with Liu Bei/trash/trash/trash/trash/Awoken Ceres. Just took her damage resist and half-decent comboing on my part (as opposed to the "I-just-woke-up-so-I'm-terrible" comboing from earlier) and it was no problem.

Try a Gabriel friend. That should handle everything. Nothing in the dungeon really threatens him if you're careful with when you pop actives.

Edit: I guess I'm just assuming everything on your team is blue. If I remember correctly, isn't your team all blue except black Kali? That might still be enough. Do you have a monoblue version?

Still conflicted about whether I want to farm green fairies and white chasers. I never use Perseus, but maybe I would if he was skillmax. Then again, maybe I still wouldn't. And I'll probably use Metatron as a situational sub, but I don't kow if I need skillups for that or if they trump Perseus.

Maybe I'll start by just grabbing ten or so fairies right now and plan on skilling him up over a long period of time. I don't use him, so it's certainly not urgent.

I managed to stall until Skuld was ready, chipped him down to light, he put up his combo shield.

I popped Skuld, had the perfect board ready, and promptly choked with a 4-combo.

The worst part is that Viz Asgard could have tanked the fuckoff attack, and he was one turn away from that.

Chirei, could you sell me some of your MAD SKILLZ? Congrats! O_O

On a side note, i see that the hidden sensors of the game are still alive and kicking: 5 runs of Goddess Mythical for the jewel.... dropped +eggs left and right and skilled Valk up 2 times (need 1 more for skillmax) but Karin apparently was busy somewhere else  :V

oops I got Sakuya to skill level 4

I'm playing so infrequently now that it's so easy to play Kouryuu once or twice a day and call it. Though usually it's with Purin so I don't get past Sakuya because Athena keeps killing the TAMADRA.

But going at it with Beelzebub is so eaaaasy

A question: i now have the mats to uevo Cu Chulainn but which evo would be better as a SUB? At first glance G/R seems good for GZL and Verdandi...

If you're running Verdandi lead, then G/R all the way.  He also has a TPA so that's important too.

In fact, just run G/R. His G/D form has slightly more ATK (but no TPA), but G/D's TPA more than makes up for that.

1/6.5 to 25/2.25 is incredibly good.

My current team setup is:

Awoken Parvati (+297)/Awoken Ceres (+10x)/Viz Asgard/Michael/Skuld


If I were to go all-out with orb changers and ATK, this team would be unbearably squishy, so instead I supplement the team with huge HP subs including Skuld (who makes colors the whole team can make perfect use of), Ceres (who isn't THAT big but she's plussed so it helps, and she can get rid of binds on Skuld and Michael), and Viz Asgard, who I usually just switch on when I get to the boss and I don't really have to worry about dying.

It works out well. I'm glad I chose to raise this team. And it's only gonna get better when I get Liu Bei up to speed.

Speaking of Liu Bei, I only now noticed how legit a Zhao Yun team could potentially be. I mean, 2.25/6.5/2.25 is nothing to be ashamed of by any means, especially when you've got Liu Bei on the team doing stupid damage too.

Farming Door Of Light And Shadow is so tedious. Wish Mechdragons worked for me, but my average has consistently been around one, which is not really a good use of 50 stamina. And in blasting out dozens of runs in a day with a shitload of Ronias on challenge mode I noticed that for some reason there's an inverse relationship between number of +eggs and number of skillups among my Ronia friends who have her in their 1 slot. Huh.

Confirmed the new LS for Sarasvati and Krishna. You gotta match exactly 5 orbs with at least 1 enhanced orb for the extra x1.5 bonus, and it only applies to the color attribute of the orbs you just matched. So if you matched 5 dark orbs then only dark monsters got boosted by it. Kinda weird but oh well.

Krishna is 1.5/3/4.5
Sarasvati is 2.5/5

the page argues that if you had ideal teams for any of the A-rank leads they would be equivalent to an S-rank

i mean for A.Ra all you need to do is stack LKalis and shit, it's a lot harder to come up with an optimal A.Horus team

Hard for me to say since I don't own A.Horus, but I would wager you definitely need Red Valk. Defensive sub could either be G/L Susano or Dizanami. For healing/recovery utility may use LMeta or Attackerasu, depends on your taste. At least one of LKali or DKali could be used if you want a full board changer. Not really sure what is the most optimal combination, I don't have A.Horus to test.

After seeing some of the crazy shit I can do with little effort with my A. Parvati, and not even at full potential, I would daresay I'm quite proud of running her even if she isn't S-rank, though I'll surely be running A. Ra when he comes out here. But even then, Parvati will still be my main girl. She may not have the punch or the HP an A. Ra team may have, but when it comes to versatility, recovery, and still being able to punch really hard, she does real good.

like i mentioned earlier, the website says A-rank leads with optimal subs are pretty much on equal footing with S-rank leads. If Awoken Ra didn't give x100 max multiplier cap he would probably just be A-rank as well.

What is the ideal a.horus team, out of curiosity?

That would depend wildly on what you want on your A.Horus team, but assuming you want a team that likes to be ready for pretty much any situation, it would be Fire Valk/DKali(Or LKali, if you don't intend to save your Fire Valk to combo with DKali to max out on fire orbs)/Susano-o(Or DIza)/LMeta(If you need more resistances) or Muse (If you need more damage).

Fire Valk is an obvious choice, and since unlike F/L Horus, Awoken Horus has Actual RCV (tm), between both Horuses and the valk you already have plenty of it so there's no need to focus on it so much more so long as your other subs aren't completely starved for RCV. DKali Vs LKali is more of a preference choice, Susano-o or DIza comes as a question of "do I need more health or more RCV for this dungeon" and Muse Vs LMeta is "Do I need more utility or more damage this dungeon". It should be noted though that since DIza has a much lower cd than susano-o she will be able to proc the bonus damage from Horus's LS much more frequently.

Basically, it's FValk/Either Kali/Defensive Sub/Utility or Enhancer

Hmm, as much as I hate to admit it, I can see why Gabriel doesn't rank higher on either list. As a leader he has extraordinarily strict sub requirements and he does have some huge weaknesses (although I don't know if he has more than most A-rank teams). As a sub I think a strong argument could be made for colored angels as at least B-tier subs after seeing their heart enhance buff in action. Although since it requires another orbchanger to work and often just means overkill damage it's understandably less of an easy include than hero gods.

So let Gabriel's freakish power be a testament to the fact that monster synergy still means at least as much as just sheer high-tier-ness. You can clear endgame content, at least a lot of it, with a bunch of lower-tier stuff as long as it works very very well together. There are still things I can't fathom clearing with Gabriel (any of the later challenge floors with no recovery are straight-up impossible for him and always will be), but he's gotten waaaay past anything I ever expected when I started using him just through synergy and the power of rows. And of course my Gabriel team still has an A-tier and a B-tier sub on it, but considering that it also has a couple of D-tier subs it kind of balances out.

I mean, that's sorta what I said, except I do recognize that there are some hard limits. That's just the price of doin' Gabriel business. Kind of need hearts to live. Maybe some day a weird card will come out that somehow lets him hang in high-pressure no recovery zones, but not right now.

Also keep it under your hat, but I totally figured out how to clear Hera Rush with Gabriel, which I previously thought was impossible. Gotta iron out a few kinks, but proof to come once I get around to having enough stamina to blow on failing a few times.

Also, speaking of Awoken Ra, I did not realize just how far off we are from him. It's going to be months and months, isn't it? That kind of sucks. Might just uvo my Ra to W/W for now, since he'll definitely be long hypermax before we get Sphinx at this rate. Get some practice in while I wait I guess.

There have been times where we got new descends on consecutive events, which I guess would be somewhere in the order of two weeks at the fastest. However, if the second ~*~Mystery Event~*~ for this event on the 29th ends up being what I think it is, one week between descends will now be the fastest known time between releases.

We've had descends pushed forward to account for upcoming sub releases in the past, so Sphinx may very well jump ahead of Z&H/Kaguya.  Sonia Gran is already in the US data so we're almost certainly getting her shortly.

If the releases keep pace, we should have awoken Egyptians some time next week (or so).  Goemon's uevo as well.

She's a fairly easy 36x, yes, and being a combo god means she can use pretty much any sub.

Quote

Does this qualify for "How the mighty have fallen"?   :V


No? ???

It means she's a viable lead. The problem is that she can't really stand alone; she more or less NEEDS specific subs to make her work. As do all hero gods really. Which means she definitely needs dark orb changers to be effective (because let's be real, most Pandora setups can't stall much) and lots of them. Most of the good ones (read: all of them that are not Vampire) are REM. Which means you need to be lucky enough to have those. If you do then she's a FANTASTIC leader, capable of absolutely insane damage. But if you don't, you're kind of screwed. That's why she's B-rank. A-rank stuff that's listed there have similar issues but generally better stats/leader skills.

It always varies and it's never consistent. Check PDX during events to see which is where.

Yes, A Bastet is real good.

Pandora still got 4th on the lastest JP PCGF though, which means she's really popular still considering the first three are all GFEs.
But then again PCGFs are more of a popularity contest than a good representation of the meta.

Fruit dragons are becoming increasingly skilluppable even without Salutations Cat. If you really want to get Strawberry or Blueberry maxed you could totally do it without being insane.

That said, the collab letting you do them all in one place would be ideal, obviously.

I'm crossing my fingers for UEVOs, myself.  They certainly have a place in any number of teams, occasionally even with their hilariously shitty stats (see: strawberry w/RGY, melon w/wukong, grape w/luci), but they're just way too low in the stats department.

I've got three Blueberries anticipating a healer uvo. Not sure what it would have to have for me to drop Ruka for it. Just Healer and marginally better stats I guess, and ideally bind clear.

PCGF starts this Sunday for NA!  Also, if you manage to pull one of the cards in the list, they will pop out already level 50, so ready for evo the moment you get it!

Oh right, and all cards pulled, PCGF winners or not, are coming out with a plus on em if you care.

The max-level winners thing is a thing they just started doing for the JP PCGF, so it's nice that they let everyone else in on the fun as well.

The plus egg thing really just softens the blow by a small amount if you "fail".

Meimei invaded, but Dill Sirius and Vritra managed to block both Meimei's and Leviathan's skillbind.

Moreover, I'm surprised I still know how to use Byakko, with the added difficulty of getting Dark TPAs while proccing.

Let's do this. +297 Sakuya go go go.

Only going to use Sakuya from now on. Ever. Even farming those +eggs.

Admittedly, it's nice getting free TAMADRA from Kouryuu. I'll miss that.

To be frank, I'm completely imagining Kirin's awoken UVO using Kouryuu himself as a material. If she gets ~*~True Boisterous Dance~*~ as an instant death ability I'd be cool with it.

Either Hera-Beorc Mythical is cursed or I am.

I've tried dozens of times in the past to beat her, but was always walled by Leviathan.

Now I have the perfect team for the dungeon. Leviathan as well.

What has happened MULTIPLE times today?

Freak skyfalls that make me take Beorc from high green HP to <30% when I'm intentionally trying NOT TO DO THAT.

Even with an ideal team, I'm just not allowed to win, ever. Every bit of bad luck in the world is telling me to go fuck myself whenever I even try.

Fuck this fucking piece of shit game. I shouldn't be fucking failing all the goddamn time ESPECIALLY WHEN I NEVER MADE A SINGLE MISTAKE.

I meant like, future evo paths past the available ones.

I had a dragon blade that could go to Knight or Samurai, which is fine, but I wanted to know what Shogun and Paladin were like before deciding. I saved and evolved to Knight first, but the game autosaves after evolutions (WHY?) and now I'm stuck with it. :(

Meanwhile!

I saw it coming this time. Accidentally took Medjed down past 50%, so I had to deal with my wood attacks doing half damage. Even an all-out attack with mil+ damage from both Parvatis wasn't enough. But I saw that coming and used Kushinada in time for MEDJE THE END. Which did a simple glancing blow thanks to tha Kush.

(http://i.imgur.com/QBBCCDK.jpg)

And stay down, motherfucker.

Side note: I thought my RCV was great before when using Asgard. Switching him out for Kushi because I wanted more skill bind resist gave me even more. Even a simple three hearts and a couple combos is generally enough to bring me to full health from a 99% gravity.

I love this team. I'm so happy I invested so much into it.

I havent stoned to beat a stage in quite a while either...i dont wanna think how many stones Ive wasted on that before I adoptes the nostone thing myself.

Oh right, took out Medje on Legend after dying a couple times at his premier.  Was pretty painless with Karin, although I DID trigger Invisible Protection by mistake so Ill need to be more careful on Mythical.  I lived with like 340 HP or so.

I should try to see what I can fit in for Skillbind Resist though so I domt have to rely on luck not to get hit by the red mask's Sealing Gaze...  i only have 40% by default which could be a problem more often than not.

Sure, I gotta stall out the light absorb but that's fine with 2.5k autoheal under my belt :V

And I dropped a centaur on both runs too so I guess this is where I'm going for my Michael skillups. Just one more level for leeza and a bajillion more for GZL and everyone's maxxed!

Lots of options here for orbchanging + some rows. There's also more less optimal but still usable options like SQ
If Isis' leader skill doesn't include hearts (which is likely >_>) then Reine/Hermes are the optimal picks, although with Amon you get more rows
or i guess Tidus HA HA HA

Water/Fire: Orochi, Sieg, Beast Rider Merlin
Uh yeah options here really suck. Orochi is good I guess cause now that you have easy 4.5x every turn, 5 turns is enough to kill anything really (Unfortunately I only have fake orochi aka Ex-hydra who isn't water..) Merlin is alright cept for those stats but he's getting a slight buff to that (also again I have other rider but not him why)

Water/Dark: Bodin, Karin, ...uh Wadasumi? FUCKKKK
Ugh there's no real substitute over Bodin and Karin because thy're both fucking amazing. Bodin brings the beef and Karin gives you the fullboard. It's probably best to run both.
Oh right Awoken Haku is Dark/Water so she could wo- wait she's double TPA now? lmao nevermind gungho pls

As for other subs, Andromeda stand out the most since you get two rows, two skill lock resist, and with her active + reine you get a crazy board of almost all blue orbs. You could probably pull off some crazy triple row shit and basically be ronia on steroids.

Optimal subs then are probably:
Reine, Andromeda, Karin, and uh I guess Merlin for the 100% skill lock resist


dammit I need a karin now


warning etc: I'm not sure about that devil team because UY and Reine and Wada are all not devils but fuck red sounds like a good idea :v

Hmm maybe I don't need Karin with Wadatsumi

With Wada I still have the same number of rows but also have 100% skill lock resist with Andro. Also his active isn't too bad either.

But Karin's active is still better >_> Especially since you want as many orb changers as possible since Isis' active is already utility

Yeah I was suggested to drop ANep from that suggestion and maybe you could use hyper Nut since you have that already? It's totally possible to swing with just tpas since you'll have that quick guard on.

sadly muse would make this all a lot better

wow new kirin is kind of ugly

you shut your foolish mouth she looks great

tbh this ult is exactly what she needed to stay relevant too, a nice stat boost and a multiplier boost

I may even get my second wind with using her!


meanwhile, impressions on new stuff:
Awoken Leilan: Finally, a Lei with good art. I'll ult mine for that purpose alone. <_<;

Awoken Haku: Looks pretty, but they ruined her tbh. God/Healer is not suited for her, and double TPA is not what she needs when she plays a far more vital role as a devil row focus with TPA supplement.

Awoken Isis: About time. Looks nice, and they made her 4.5x much easier to hit. Most importantly, good Skuld sub. :smug:

Awoken Anubis: Insane, but just as hard to use. Just imagine the multiplier when paired with Lu Bu or something.

No real opinions on Ganesha or DKali, but Ult Tengu seems useful for what he's worth.



Looking forward to Eva stuff being relevant. Hopefully the ults actually make them... you know, viable. Because they suck ass right now.

Indifferent to new collabs because we're never getting them, so fuck it

New GFEs are gorgeous and I want-- no, need them all


>- Some Spirit Jewels will be able to skill up Awoken Chinese gods (Leilan, Meimei, Haku)
-- Good, saves on pys

>- Permanent 2x drop and 2x coin for Weekday and Weekend dungeons
-- Good, should have been the default ANYWAY

>- More biweekly dungeons to be permanently added to Technical dungeons.
>- Fairy will start to invade normal dungeon's Legendary Dragons' Footprints, Mystic Beasts (Phoenix, Kraken, Griffin, Unicor, Cerberus) for Sky Dragon's Domain.
>- Chasers will invade technical dungeon's Mechdragons' Massive Fortress and War Dragons. Mystic Beasts for Ancient Dragons and Fairies for Dragon Knights.
-- all of this is way overdue thank god for farmable chasers and mystic beasts

>- Players reaching rank 150 will receive an in-game mail containing a god or fest-exclusive (Odin, Metatron, Sonia only)
-- very cool good luck not getting a dupe tho

>- Very difficult, no-continue dungeons to appear after Paradise of the Holy Beast. These dungeons will always reward Pii/Py after clearing.
-- holy shit yes please

>- New dungeon conditions to include different size boards. 5x4 and 7x6 for example.
-- This is probably the most interesting news! it's a game changer for sure

>- A new coop mode to be implemented. Players will be able to select each others' teams, borrow each others' leads, and team HP will be shared. Player 1 and 2 will take turns to do combos
-- Neat, may you not be paired with scrubs


Lots of cool news this time around.


Meanwhile meanwhile, PCGF yolorolls gave me Strawberry Dragon and Machine Golem.

I am never rolling again, not until new GFEs come out here. Forget it. It's all shit. My stones belong to Star Vault from here on.

Byakko still gets to play around with Beelzebub and Persephone, who both have TPAs. Moreover, the dual TPA life means she's -significantly- less orb trollable from bad Seven-Stars. Also Dill Sirius.

Hell, the only thing she loses is, hell, Awoken Neptune and Lu Bu support. However, we still have freaking DQ Hera who has the same cooldown as Neptune, a TPA of her own, and nice all around stats.

Even Zaerog Infinity is on-color, has a TPA and a useful active.

Oh right. Byakko also gets ~*~Sun Quan~*~ support, which is almost infinitely better than anything Neptune or Lu Bu could do.

If anything I'd say Awoken Isis is closer to D/D Haku or R/L Leilan.

k good

man Awoken Isis is actually a crazy sub though, thanks to the fact that her atts cover B/G which is usually really hard to cover.

Like Awoken Isis on Awoken Ra. I'm pretty sure I've already said before but with Isis you basically can have x100 up 100% of the time thanks to her low cd. Plus she can keep your LKalis from being bound (not that it matters since you have every att unbindable lol)
Same goes for Horus

...oh hey she's Devil too

RONIA SUB LMAO

??? ??? ???

She's... nothing like Ronia whatsoever.

A better comparison would be that she's like Awoken Horus with easier (but lower) multiplier requirements. :V
ok i dont actually know anything about ronia despite having two  :derp:

but she's not really like Horus at all since you're row focused now and you don't give a shit about combos anymore since they dont add anything


oh hey how much is the shield on Isis' active

also combo shields popping up everywhere say hi

+25% per combo above 1, as it has been since the start of the game.

Given the choice between just two rows (so a 2 combo) or two rows and other miscellaneous orbs (for 5+ combo) I know which one I'd want to aim for.

uh

she's actually entirely like horus because you still have an attribute matching requirement that gets boosted when an active skill is used. Neither care about number of combos. A. Isis is just much easier to use and has a much faster active :V

the fact that she uses rows over TPA is kind of moot in the long run

Her shield is 30%.

Also you're wrong; just because a monster has a row as a lead doesn't immediately mean you are forced to make blue rows. You could only make Blue rows if you use orb-changers, which is only possible if you run Karin as a sub since you require 3 colors minimum to proc her leader skill. She is also like Horus precisely because she's a color match lead, while Ronia is unconditional. In both cases, combo matters because combos always increase damage whether you like it or not, Ronia just gets a bigger boost (x1.2). Both of them need high damage amp due to their naturally low multipliers (x9 / x6.25 for Isis / Ronia). Her Water row makes her suitable to be a good sub which is a distinction that Awoken Chinese have.

Welp, looked and much like everyone else the B/L ult is entirely worthless for me(bit blue healers are stupidly REM so it's little surprise), so B/G it'll be.  RIP whoever it had been who wanted more B/L SQ players about.

On a related note, this is probably a stupid question but is there any situation where feeding REM dupes for skillup/awak is better than keeping them unused in the box?
Normally i wouldn't even think about eating up a REM roll, but if it's something that is never used twice in a team?

Just a friendly reminder for anyone who pulls a Sun Quan in the godfest, I demand that all Sun Quans be made U/W, and hypermaxed, and put on my friends list. :V
Buy me a blue healer team and Ill make him whatever you want, Commander.  =D

After commandercool's Andromeda adventure, it seems to me that this can't be done. You can't choose blue healers, they must choose you. If 200 stones won't get you one sub, you can't buy them. I didn't buy mine, I got lucky.

Alternatively, go get some blue fairies, Warons, and Cockatrices. That should... totally... work right? :D

also wood enemies rip
well obviously I'd combo higher if needed, but not every boss has combo shield

And wood enemies aren't really a specific problem now that even light and dark are getting resisted a lot


Anyways for optimal subs, Reine + Andro are pretty much shoe ins, as is Karin for the full board.

The final sub doesn't actually need to be fire because you only need to match 3 atts anyways. If you ditch fire then you have the same activation difficulty as the leader version of the chinese girls (need 3 out of 4 specifics) which is still really easy.

That way you have a ton of options for the final sub like more orb changers like Hatsume, more rows with Bodin, more full boards with another Karin, or even 100% shield + activation rate with another Awoken Isis :V

Now I just need a Karin though >_>

Hey Fanatic, do you mind keeping that third Haku at base form? I think I'm going to slap Xuanzang around with what I pulled next time he rolls around.

Sure can do. I need to obtain... three of him for my eventual Awoken Byakko shenanigans, myself.

I'm reluctant to offer about getting skillups, as they'll all be reset. Don't think the Master version should require it, though.

I already did some tests with the team using unskilled D/R Hakus, and I can almost kill Laphroaig in TEC with the team. That said, I should be fine bar a few minor adjustments.

Also violated forbidden laws because I'm a fucking moron. (I start a new job this week so it's okay.)

#3: dupe water swordsman
#4: Durga

Considering that she gets a pretty sweet ult and I have Lumiel, I'm okay with this, I suppose. Dunno how I feel about her though when ult LKali and ult ult Kirin are a thing, though...

that's what I'm considering to do with my three Byakko to be honest.

Board change board change board change board change board change board change

I took a look at my friends list and I realized I still have +297 Sakuya friends. But they're not skillmaxed.

Not quite- you need one thing for the off turn, but yeah, 4 Awoken Chinese is hillarious.

Guess how many spare mei I happen to have.

Is the 150 Rank "gift" only for those who REACH it or also for those that are already beyond it? Greediness is an awful thing.....  >:D


On a related note, this is probably a stupid question but is there any situation where feeding REM dupes for skillup/awak is better than keeping them unused in the box?
Normally i wouldn't even think about eating up a REM roll, but if it's something that is never used twice in a team?
My dupes are Kagutsuchi, GGY, GZL and Pandora....

The 150 Rank gift pull is for rank 150 and above

also you can't get certain pantheon gods

keep Kagutsuchi, Pandora and GZL dupes.

GGY is eh.

Basically:
If it's a good sub and you have a dupe of it, keep it. A time may come where having more than one could be useful.

If its main role is to be a leader and it's NOT a good sub and you have a dupe of it, feed it away or keep it as a trophy. Or just wait for future ults/awokens. It may have a use later on.

I'd usually say keep it for future ultimates-

as is, almost every card in the game is looking at 3 ultimates base now, and we have no idea what could happen in the future frankly.

I've fed plenty away in annoyance and it has never payed off, rip susano twosano.

Keeping six Meimei however, as wild as it is, has payed off considerably.
