Anyone can give me any tipps for the last Little Garden chapter? I dont have a clue about Mr. 3. Everytime I hit him he says "You missed" and the whole last line is being imprisoned...

Yeah tht's how I had it, someone told me to switch out smoker to increase my damage though. |:
/edit
Okay I switched back to my smoker team & completely demolished the stage. (Knowing that helmepoo only does like 754 damage or so helps time my specials much better, that was my issue before)
(Yeah I cleared cobymeppo twice on 30 stam in a row. should've stuck with this team from the start. )
Kill the one in the middle at the back first, that way he wont buff himself and lock you.
On a scale of 1 through Dead, how dead is Coby?
dead. Garp will be dead soon too.
Any specific reason you are still using the Merry Go? /noob

The idea was that we're now using OT1, tried upgrading it to OT2 and we failed so we're still at OT1.
Merry is the best ship. It looks like a weaker Baratie in its early levels but it starts giving a x1.2 ATK boost at level 6 that becomes x1.5 at level 10.

Wooh just upgraded Merry to level 8, it's failed like 6-7 times in the past. Only 2 more levels until I've completed it~
edit: Btw does Helmeppo's special reduce the chained status by 3 of the entire team, or one unit?

Maxed merry go gives you a 1.5x attack bonus.

Just tried it to double check. Both him and Morgan reduce all chains and you can use both specials back to back. This will be useful on the next fortnight, Smoker pre-emptively locks a captain for 4 turns so Morgan + Helemppo can free you instantly.

Okay, I'll definitely work towards leveling them in that case. Especially if they'll be necessary/useful soon.
Thanks, that will be helpful - looks like Slasher teams will be once again the top choice for an Event Island.
Mihawk/Mihawk
Arlong/Smoker
Helmeppo/Golden Pound
Should work well.

Ugh it's so painful that if I miss my 3-perfect set up even once, I'm essentially dead.
Gear 3rd teams are so ridiculously squishy.

Dont you have Mihawk ? G3 is a great boss killer but farming with him would bee to stressful in the long run - HP on G3 teams isnt that high to begin with so against strong units you need to hit those perfects without being able to heal.

My Mihawk's level 30. I don't really have any cohesive team beyond gear 3rd ready for use atm. (I had a makeshift Asura Zoro team for Hina, but that relied heavily on stalling to use Marco's heal; as I didn't have 5 tech unites of worth.)
Mihawl level 30 also hits hard - would be better if you get him at least to lvl 50 and start farming Slashers - in adition to Asura Zoro - you have Arlong, Helmeppo, Mr. 3, Kuro, Morgan and co. which all hit really hard in a 6.25x Slasher team.
Its worth the trouble since you will spend most of your time with your farming team anyway.
Good to hear! I was thinking clearing shouldn't be too bad if your perfects are being hit with the easier crew members.
m-my c-current team
pls don't laugh
Make sure to use Go Merry because it's the best ship currtently!

Yeah use all your colas to upgrade merry but only switch to it when it gets the attack bonus, I'd stick with barratie until then for the HP bonus
Don't worry, that's what I'm doing! Like Makaveli said, only using the barratie because I don't have the atk bonus upgrade yet

So that's my team that I am using now:
The problem I have is that I am not poweruping anyone from them, as I am playing the event island and doing level ups to Coby and Helmeppo only (and Nico also if I get any skill books).
How do you guys handle your power ups? Because I do really suck at them (as you can see).

Ehh, I'm not the best at this, but I'm definitely trying to get better. My suggestion is to try to look into the future a bit. We have a pretty good idea of what is coming, due to us lagging behind the JP version, so you can make some good guesses and choose which characters to level accordingly.
I'm not sure who all you have, but it's also handy to level characters that have multiple uses. For instance, your Arlong can be used in both Force and Slash teams, and, since he has one of the highest attack stats in the game, is going to be useful for a very long time. Additionally, Colby is great for Heart teams, but he is also useful in a ton of other teams as well, so he's a good candidate for leveling.

My current slashers are..
evolved: Mihawk, Zoro ... vivi .... Arlong, Django, Buggy, Tashigi.
unevolved: Kuro (not gonna evolve him lol), Morgan, Helmeppoo,
Tashigi's 36, Buggy's 36.
What are the benefits of a Mihawk team? high & stable damage?
/edit
I can get through the 0 stamina stage without getting hit once with a mihawk slasher team, if that's any indication for how useful a crew is.
Neoriceisgood
Member
Well my Mihawk team does great ... until I reach Coby, where my damage output is way too low to take him down before usopp's stall ends...
Another 30 stamina down the drain~
Edit: I could use tomorrow's turtle time to bring my buggy up from level 36 to 50 or so, he's purple so he should do good damage against coby at a decent level, right?

What the levels on your slasher them?

Mihawk 36
Buggy/Tashigi 36
Zoro: 52
Arlong : 49
GODSOPP: 36
I'm charging my android atm, but those should be about right give one or two levels. (my reason for thinking I might want to level buggy is cause black turtles would give him the most experience compared to the others.)
Haha, I love the idea. I approve!
Very nice. It's always great to see a new fan for One Piece. Since you're just starting out, you have so much greatness to look forward to. I hope you haven't been spoiled already on a few of the upcoming story aspects. If you haven't, you're in for a real treat.
I've always viewed Treasure Cruise as a great means to get people, who otherwise wouldn't be interested in One Piece, into the franchise. It seems to be working, at least in this case. I very much appreciate that.
I can always use more Vista, so I sent a friend request.
I'd say it depends mostly on who your strongest captains are. I have Mihawk, Vista, and Shanks, so the bulk of my XP goes to slashers, INT, and PSY. Best-in-class characters like Arlong are always a good place to put XP. Mid-tier STR/DEX/QCK characters become near-useless against their opposite "element", so they get less of a focus.
Characters with high HP and/or attack at max level afford more bang for the buck when you give them a larger share of the XP, like Krieg, for instance. Then there are certain characters like Vivi and Alvida that are the gateway to many strategies, who need to be at to a decent level to provide a safe endurance team fallback for raid bosses.
Right now, though, I think the choices are so limited, it's hard to find a "wrong" way to do things. There's only so much you can do to predict the RNG future. For example, if you have 4/5 of the characters required for a raid boss team, waiting for a rare gacha character or even a difficult farmable, it's probably not a good idea to push too many levels into the unfinished set. That's kind of like expecting to draw an Ace to complete a Royal Flush in Poker.
Sometimes I think just giving your XP evenly to 4* and 5* units would be as good as any micro-management approach.
I've not been spoiled on anything yet! Except for this one scene one of my friends linked to me a while ago and I simply cannot forget about it ever since I've seen it. I am loving the story so far, I've always been a bit... intimated by the length of One Piece. But the manga is really good. I'm at chapter 54 so far, slowly catching up with my in-game progress
Accepted!
Another question: during battles, I've noticed some party members get a golden glow around their icon. For example: I start a round with Vista and Miihawk (friend captain) starts glowing up. Does this mean said character does bonus damage if you pick them next?
You're using Mihawk over G3? Because even if G3 is a little annoying since with your easy units you need to hit the perfects everytime, it's the fastest and best way to beat Coby. Unfortunatley I don't think those units will work unless you stall long enough for Mihawks special's.
If that's all you've been spoiled on, you're a lucky man indeed. Enjoy yourself, it only gets better.I've not been spoiled on anything yet!

And yeah, when I started out with One Piece, it was a pretty big undertaking for myself too [the length of it all can be...a bit intimidating]. I watched the anime [subbed] instead of reading the manga, and I went through the entire pre-Timeskip episodes [from episode 1 all the way to episode 500+] in the span of around a month and a half. The Timeskip Arc was just beginning at that time, so I wanted to catch myself up before it started. I managed to, but I marathoned A LOT of episodes. I watched every single one too, even all of the smaller/filler episodes. I had a great time, as I'm sure you will.

Biker Smoker's fortnight announced, the skillbooks are kinda meh though:
Yeah, seems like the only one that's really useful is Mr. 3.

Totally, I could use the Mr 3 skillbooks though.
Yay for Biker Smoker
Nooooo to those skillbooks. I guess lion song will be the one I farm along with Smoker. Will smoker skillbooks drop?

You skill up Smoker with dupes like Hina, he doesn't have skillbooks.
Ahhhh okay that's cool then. I guess that's the same for characters like Garp, MC and Mihawk?
I think I've seen the "hidden boss" of Cobymeppo.
You fight against the v1 version of Coby and Helmepo at once. They're weak though
Nope. That happens because it's your friend captain. Captains shine when you use a character that activates their Captain Skill (so everytime a Slasher attacks it should shine).
My Merry shines too whenever I attack due to the ATK bonus it gives.

Mihawk gives me a bit less of a stressful set up for grinding.
Also I think I had my slasher team's ship set to the dhingy rather than merry go ... lol.
I used my turtles to level Mihawk up to 44 & got buggy up to level 43 (replacing a level 26 tashigi)
I nearly killed Coby last time, so with these changes I think my damage might be just enough to get him.
My turtle team is now a well-oiled machine. G3 with Fullbody and Shanks/Marco is pretty nice for extra Elder-killing options (with a matching orb), speeding up runs dramatically.
But I miscalculated my Rank XP, so now I'm 2 runs shy of gaining a Pirate Rank and gemming would be too inefficient (wasted stam, not enough time to max out runs). Guess I'll try to get it back on track when it rolls around later today.
