it was 4am here

Pulled once, got ra. Not bad. Just missing Anubis to complete the pantheon.

Also, if I can avoid an obscene number of sky drops on round one, (where are all these mass attack sky drops when I actually need them?) I can pretty consistently beat twin lits now. Didn’t try trifruits, but my red Sonia team might be able to do it next time. Or else I need to get a Satan.

Pulled four times yesterday, got a Persephone and a Saitan. The other two were a green Golem and a Verge. Not entirely satisfied… :\

No Godfest drops…

Didnt roll at all on my main, no stones, all tamadras instead.

Rolled 3 times on my secondary uk account, got Genie, Gigas and then a Valk, pleased with the valk.

Congrats!
Is that the normal Valk (yellow) or the other colored ones?

Just the normal, level 30 though so useful as well as its hard work to get it to ult evo level

I figured I’d have a go at the godfest, but only one pull. Got a Red Sonia, which seems to be the new hotness. Not sure how much she helps me though.

Yeah Red sonia x 2 is 6.25 multiplier on both atk and rcv makes for some very powerful teams. Might need a bit of work to get there but seems very worthy.

I completed Hera-is yesterday, 0 stoned legendary but no drop however Chaos Blizzard Dragon did, not sure how useful it is but nice to collect anyways. I used Neptune / luci leads with Siren, RK, luci and Awoken Hera. Never really had any probs. stupid thing was i for got i was doing it and by the time i had finished it there was no chance for another go.

Red Sonia needs a huge available team cost, full awakening, and end-game descend and/or REM subs (Hera, Hera-Is, and/or Hera-Ur, and Persephone/Loki) to really be effective, although you can probably make a decent team with a vampire or two, maybe a chaos devil dragon, maybe some of those farmable demons, and a bunch of dual element ogres (ideally with two awakenings each).

This morning I woke up and there was not a single valkyrie up on my friends list. First time that ever happened. It was bizarre. Had to use a Light Metatron for expert Red Pirate dragon.

Beat legend Red Pirate Dragon the other day with SoD Luci leads, 3 varieties of Hera, and a Zeus. 4 Heras and 2 luci cannons doesn’t quite kill the end boss. Other than that, you need a ridiculous amount of burst damage for that boss, since he one-shots almost any other team.

I started playing this game today. When going into dungeons I get a message that my leaders ability won’t work, why am I getting that?

If the co-leader you select in the last step before entering the dungeon is not on your friends list, you won’t get the benefit of their leader skill. You’ll also receive only 5 pal points. Leaders on your friend list are worth 10 pal points, & the leader skill is active.

Thanks. Next question I got a monster that has “enhance” material I think. What is that for?

Enhance monsters usually are fed to other monsters to help the others increase their levels. That said, there are a few enhance monsters (e.g., snow globe dragons, super king metal/gold dragons, ghostring) that might be worth keeping in your team, especially early on. I recommend looking over the first 4-5 pages of this thread; there’s a lot of really good information & links to sites that help folks new to the game.

I know it’s a bit of a pain, it is really worth spending 20 mins reading the following guides just so you undserstand what and where, at a basic level the game is very easy but there is a lot to it if you understand it. To add you know you can move the orbs anywhere, up down, left, right or diagonally.

Pt your friend code up and we can all add you, while we wont be up often to use you will at least have access to very powerful creatures.

Time for my bimonthly list of questions:

  1. I just evolved my Drawn Joker. I have the materials to do his ultimate evo. I’m not sure if I should do it right away. His skills don’t change, I’m not at the stage where I’m worrying about awoken skills, I don’t plan on maxing the monster out anytime soon, and I’m not sure if the secondary blue color would be more a help (I have a decent mono-blue team) or a hindrance (double the potential to get bound). On the other hand, since I’ve got the materials, I’m always short on inventory space, & don’t have any other monsters that will need the mats in the near future, why not do it? Any thoughts?

  2. Always looking to reduce my inventory if I can, is it worth it to have two big beefy high-HP types, or is one enough? For example, I’ve got a Water Mech Warrior, Midgard, that I use a decent amount, and a low-level Ice Golem that I figured I might develop sometime. Similarly, I’ve got a Machine Gol Mk II, & recently pulled a 3* Machine Gol. I can’t even field a light team yet. Should I keep both? I’m trying to balance my natural hoarding tendency against the need to save up magic stones for Godfests rather than using them for extra space.

  3. Extra bonus question: Just got a second naga from farming tonight. Basically same question as 2, above. Is it worth keeping two naga/eventual echidna, or should I feed the new one to my old one at the next 2 x skillup time in hopes of starting to up her skill level (old one is only lev 7, skill lev 1)?

The extra recovery on ultimate drawn joker is nice, but not game changing. I wouldn’t worry about being slightly more susceptible to being bound. It’s rarely a big deal, and the extra damage is nice. If you use him a lot or really need the box space, evolve him, but it’s not going to make a huge difference.

I would keep one of each golem just in case. It only costs you a stone to store one of each. I’ve never actually used any of then, but there were times when I would have if I had a higher level one available.

A second naga on her second evolution is useful for restricted cost descends and a couple end game descends, but Scarlet snake sisters comes around often enough that you should try for the skill up. A max or near max skill echidna us invaluable. I have five to feed and one more skill up needed. Wish me luck…

Edit: 1/1 on noble mech dragon, 0/5 on echidna. Of course. I must have fed that echidna 100 so far…

Edit 2: and 0/2 on strawberry dragon…

I got 1 for 12 on Echidna which raises my skill level to 2 which is a real pain, could really benefit from her max level along with the drawn joker but never seemed to get anywhere with them.

Hera-is this week again so hoping my luck changes and she drops

Do you guys recommend using my stones early on to add more monster slots or in the rare egg machine? So far I think I’ve gotten 1 rare egg and use the rest for slots. I’m up to 40 slots now I think. Seems like the slots are more important early on so I can collect enough monsters of each color to level up the monsters I currently have.

How many slots do you have, and what are you using for a lead? Slots are nice, but if you can figure out what is important to keep early on, you don’t need all that many extra past what they give you. I got to 100 monster slots and stopped for a long while. Save enough stones for a roll or two during each godfest, especially if you don’t have a great lead monster.
