What's so good about SSR Freiza exactly?
Click to expand...

Both his leader skill and passive are always active, he has the strongest stats in our current batch of SSRs, and he can link up to other forms of Frieza like the upcoming Mecha Frieza. Also his super attack is the only one in the game right now that does Catastrophic damage, and the fact that his passive gives him +30% attack for free makes him and absolutely monster in terms of damage.

Do you guys think its wise to do more summoning now? I got 15 stones not sure if I should summon now or save them for the next set of fighters.

Do you need units? Or are you just seeing what you would get? I did a multi, since I lost the free SR(basically got it back due to multi event) from How I rerolled and wanted to fill a few holes for future strike events.

Also, loving all these strikes that are int, hopefully I get a lot luckier with Mecha-Frieza than Jackie Chun.

I was hoping to get Frieza and some PHY units and STR units. But I guess I'll save up. Do you know when they'll have any more new units?

No clue when more units will be out, try friend pulls to fill you holes, you can get R and apparently the occasional SR from them.

That said, play how you want to, but be careful of lottery.

Is Z-hard a good way to gain levels?
Click to expand...

Depending on if you can beat it, I would say so.
Aside from that, do daily missions, strike events, etc. thing that focus on the future, mostly, I would say.

You can evolve characters?

Is that different from Awakening?
Click to expand...

Awakening bumps up the stats, and gives you a star for each one you did. When you do every medal, you Z-Awaken and the character raises to the next rarity. N->R, R->SR, etc.


Basically a fully awakened character move to the next rarity.

So my phone is busted and I lost all my stuff



Had 30+ stones too :(. So thanks to the lack of a true account system I'll have to start everything over again, which kind of sucks cause it felt like it look a while to get my characters to these levels. Device transfer can't help me here :(

When I restart the game on my new phone what should I reroll for? I really liked my AGL Goku, and I think with DOkkan awakening he might be able to turn into any of the four SSR AGL Goku cards that will come out later (never been given a straight answer on this so I'm not sure). Should I just (easier) reroll the guaranteed SR in the beginning for him or go for a really good SSR?
Click to expand...
Wow, sorry to hear you lost everything. :(

If you're re-rolling, I'd aim for either SSR Frieza or SSR STR Goku. INT Gohan too, would be a great pull.

I'm waiting. I want to try for more SSR, and the guaranteed SR for a ten-pull is decent, but I want a true rate-up. Hopefully we'll get one soon.

Well, time to clean up Z-hard Vegeta & Nappa...but how do I beat Z-hard Nappa when my PHY offerings are complete poop?

And in the JP version, certain characters can be DOKKAN awakened with other unique tokens so that they become a different character such as with Golden Frieza or Great Saiyaman Gohan.

Pretty sure the medals you need for the DOKKAN awakening are only available during events.

Still salty I can't get a Great Saiayaman #2 Videl until the event shows up again...

I don't think I have seen any DOKKAN awakened Goku characters. It seems to be pretty specific characters at this point.

As far I know you have Golden Frieza, Final Form Cooler, Great Saiyaman 1&2, and the buffed up Kame-Sennin.

Also, as far as I understand the next Tenkaichi will make it possible to DOKKAN awaken Krillen...into his DB form.

I know GT is basically non-cannon at this point, but I am gonna hold out for a DOKKAN AWAKENED PORNSTACHE VEGETA

Don't suppose anyone knows who is better out of SR TEQ Tien, Krillin and Jackie Chun? Or if someone just has a ranking list that would be great.

Did a random dragonstone pull and pulled SR Frieza 2nd Form. Is that one any good at all? He links with a lot of my current team which is nice.

I have him, but tbh he is likely to be the one of the first ones to be replaced on my current team.

His stats leave a lot to be desired.

Just z-awakened my first two characters, the event Vegeta and STR Android 18. Really hope Freeza drops quickly, I missed both Tao and Chun despite beating then 30ish times on Hard.

He was a good stop-gap character for me, but I dropped him from my team after getting a SR Videl.

Though I tend to make my team choices based on characters I like more than I do over stats. ;)

Ew dont like those stats at that level. Looks like he will stay benched.

I have him and the STR Vegeta from the Saiyan event. Which one is better? Common sense tells me I should focus on Freezer since he is a SR but maybe I'm wrong.

The stars in some characters are from the normal Awakening, right? How does it work exactly? I've seen you can trigger it when you feed the character some of the evolving medals but not everything needed for a Z Awakening.

Mecha Frieza was very easy on normal and hard mode, didn't even pose a challenge, but then on Z-hard, he spammed his super attack which can either take away half your hp or all of it in one hit. I tried using 6 dragon stones and 2 full healing items to revive myself, but it wasn't enough. I got Frieza's HP down to like 10%, now I have to do some more quests to regain those lost dragon stones.

Here's my current team:


SR Android # 17 Extreme (PHY) lvl. 60
SR Android # 18 2 star (AGL) lvl. 55
SR Dr. Gero Extreme (INT) lvl. 58
SR Vegeta Extreme (STR) lvl. 60
SSR Goku Extreme (AGL) lvl. 60
SR Krillan 1 star (TEQ) lvl. 49

I haven't had any luck using summoning to get the same characters in order to upgrade their super attacks. Is it better to use Goku's leader skill for +1 Ki AGL,INT and PHY or perhaps someone else like Krillain's +20% attack damage boost when HP is 80% or less ?

I think 1 orb equals roughly around 60% damage, so Krillin's +20% attack bonus should be more helpful if you're under 80% health a lot.

BTW somebody did the calculations and a level 1 special vs a level 10 is about 50% more damage.

Thanks for the advice! I still feel like I haven't quite gotten the hang of the battle system yet. Is it true that you don't need to match the same ki orb colors with a character of the same color? For example:

Purple character is fighting a orange character and orange is strong against purple. What should I do ?

Option A) If I choose a bunch of purple ki orbs, then I'll recover some HP, increase the dokkan meter, and raise the purple character's ki circular meter which increases his attack power and may allow him to perform a super attack (if there's enough purple ki orbs to collect during his turn to attack). However, this comes at a cost of the orange character not being weak to purple, so the purple character's attack won't do that much damage.

Option B) Pick a different orb ki color instead. If I use a different color orb, then the purple character's circular ki meter won't usually increase that much because it's not purple, so purple character's attack power won't be that strong and they won't be able to likely perform a super attack.


note: What if the different orb ki color only has one available to use? Is it better to use it than to go with option A against that orange character regardless of whether that one ki orb color is blue, red or green ?

You don't have to collect the same orb as the character, collecting it will give you +2 ki instead of 1.

For character attacking order, look at the upper right element wheel. It goes clockwise. Physical (orange) is strong against Int (Purple).

Zero orbs is 50% of your normal damage I think. Forgot to mention that.

I'll use dragon stones to get Mecha Frieza's special up to 10 if I have to.
