Any idea on when this event will be back? Or is there another way to get Wyrms? I just pulled Zeus yesterday but didn't do the event since I didn't have Zeus at the time.

What does the ability "Flight" do?

I have all the different element Concordis now,
No Arthur or Zeus, but pulled Columbia and Wildcat for 5*

I think flight makes your monster avoid ground pound/earthquake abilities that some bosses do.
There's SO many co-op events going on right now, it's a bit overwhelming. I'm trying to do them, but it's just too hard to balance those with everything else. Thankfully nothing from them is THAT awesome from what I can tell...

Lin Zi is the only guy I have with Null Warp, and he has an ascended form. He could be useful in some situations.

One thing that kind of bugs me so far is that in other of these types of games (Terra Battle, PAD, Brave Frontier, etc) many of the monsters are situational and it requires you to build up a large monster box and continuously improve multiple monsters. So far I haven't really experienced that in this game. Like you pull Zeus and you're basically done as far as I can tell. Sure, you need to get through the story so you need 2 strong guys to supplement, but anyone will do pretty much as long as they're levelled.
Am I missing something?

Zeus has Null Wall Damage, with most of the dungeons having Wall Damage atm, and he combos well with other guys, hence he's incredibly strong in the current meta.
The harder dungeons will also have gravity barriers so monsters with Null Gravity barrier are better there, or they will have mines so minesweeper and flight works there.

Love the OST. Couldn't find it on youtube. It's a lot like Dragon Quest music.

I would say yes, because even above I just asked what "flight" did and it seems to be very useful with certain dungeons. I have also needed to start leveling a null damage wall and shield breaker for some of the SP missions. I think brute force will work for a long way, but once we start seeing the more difficult ones I don't know if that will be possible.

In addition Shield Breakers are good too depending on which dungeon you are in because it prevents damage just like Gravity Barrier or Damage Wall but even worse in some respects because they'll cover the enemy's weakpoint.
All Zeus in a dungeon with a huge amount of Gravity barriers is a recipe for a super slow clear.

I just downloaded the game and rolled a Venus...I didn't see her listed in the OP. Should I re-roll her or just keep going?
She's not in the op because she's a four star with a five star max. All the guys in the op are 5 stars, so I'd advise rerolling.

Just started playing this game and I have to say...I barely has a grasp on what I'm doing because right now I'm just winning by making my monster's bounce in the most wild ways possible to attack without any real strat involved. First monster I got was some Four Star called Jupiter but I assume she sucks because she is not in OP.

OK thanks. I'll be sure to check the star level next time. I'm used to PAD so the gold egg and Super Rare text confused me lol.

Ironically, when I rolled Zeus he came out as a Silver Egg. Isn't Silver supposed to be worse than gold? WHATEVER.
Not possible afaik. Lets hope im wrong.

This is all early game.
PAD and Brave Frontier didn't need varied units on their initial release either.
You see a hint in the current extreme quests where you need to itemize for element/type damage, gravity barriers, damage walls, and shield breakers in order to finish the dungeon and get the coveted no-continue chest.
There is a reason this game is huge in JP. They have more advanced content.
Juptier is one of the few good 4* since she has shield breaker + pierce + a speed up ability.
Situational, but nice to have.

So I am going to focus HARD on getting someone besides my Zeus into super power land. 3x Zeus for multiplayer is basically worthless.
Yeah, that's one of the reasons I've been working so hard on Mundus today. Zeus is great but a team full of them are terrible.

Too bad her stats even evolved leave a lot to be desired. :\

Maxed out Grimrose Harely X's HP but it didn't turn yellow? Is it because she hasn't reached max level yet?
You got it.
It confused me at first too [when I was using +stat Morling on my Striker].

Alright I re-rolled a couple times and got an Odin. I think I'm just going to go with it.
Odin's pretty awesome. I'd go with that.
Keep your current account and wait until the next event before using the hatcher again. A Japanese website gave ascended Sanada Yukimura the same score as Arthur.
If it helps any, I tried a ton for both of them and had zero luck, gave up and bought some Orbs, then got them both (two Zeus even) in two successive Golden 10-Shots.
Yes and no. If you're talking about Normal dungeons, then you're right. If you're talking about Descended quests (especially the Japanese gods) then NO, you are very, very wrong.
Some monsters are so good, that you'll be able to use them in a majority of dungeons. Zeus definitely counts. There are a number of instances where you don't want to use him though.
1. Primarily dark dungeons - especially ones that deal heavy damage. The new Kabutops dungeon is an example of this.
2. Dungeons that are anti-gravity barrier heavy, warp heavy, or have tons of mines. The fact that he is pierce (or however they translated 貫通
helps, but AGB dungeons will make Zeus largely useless.3. Bosses that are "God Killers" as they WILL completely destroy you (Kii and Jurazauros count.)
In JP, you can never have enough monsters - they're constantly coming out with new dungeons that "require" certain skills (skills conveniently found on the newest batch of gold egg machine units.) You can make do with units like Izanami, Izanagi, Yamatotakeru, and Kushinada, but you will need strong support units sporting abilities specific to each run.
So buy orbs and you'll totally get Arthur and Zeus, right?
Jupiter is one of the few 4★s that I still use because she has pierce, shield breaker, and a decent combo skill. The other two pierce shield breakers are iffy - Galahad has a scatter shot as a combo skill and Katsu Kaishu has shield breaker on his gauge shot - which means you'll occasionally miss with it.
Jupiter is consistent, shield breaking goodness.
The other quality 5★ units are
1) Freya
2) Chandra
3) Del Lotte
and notable, farmable 4 - 5★s are
1) Hel
2) Luck Dragons
3) Bakuren

3. I can confirm Sylasaurus Rex just completely mangled my pretty decent team (didn't know he was a deity killer after the fact). Was running Dark Asc Zeus, Arthur, Asc Mundus and Dark Asc Zeus as friend. He just did like 2/3 of my total health every turn at one point.

Are any other common mobs 90 luck capable?
or is it literally only the hot pepper monster..

my yet-to-be-ascended Sanada isn't really that good I guess hmm i'm getting pretty tempted to buy orbs... lol
Other starter dragons as well.
You can also farm Dark / Light dragons. If the set it up the same way as the JP version, you can run Light / Dark dungeons for half stamina and farm EXP / luck dragons at the same time.
You can probably max a dragon out in about two weeks (three total since Light / Dark dungeons alternate.)

What's a better sub to have, a regular Harley or a Merlin. I ask because Merlin doesn't seem to be cutting it for me. I also have an Eclipse but not sure if want to play with it for now.
What are the favored farmable six stars in Japan, it seems like ascended dark wyrm was one of them.
I'd say they're divided into three basic groups.
・Recommended farmable 6★s due to ease / use (no particular order)
1) Dark Dragon (maybe Wyrm?)
2) Queen Butterfly (ASC) for fly and AGB
3) Deatharc (ASC) for AGB and Blast
4) Konohanasakuya-hime (was available for about 10 days)
・Recommended, but difficult
1) Kii (diety killer, awesome strike shot)
2) Fenrir (good all-rounder)
3) Bezeira (good all-rounder)
・Current end-game, farmable 6★s (no particular order)
1) Izanami
2) Izanagi
3) Kushinada
4) Yamatotakeru
You can farm pretty much anyone you want, though - just their usefulness varies. There are other popular monsters like Tengu, Vanilla, and El Soliel.
I'm working on Bast :3
