I just used over 40 stamina (my max is 42 but I know I added some while farming) trying to get purple sperms to use to evolve my Succubus and my Dark Dragon. That is my full stamina allotment for awhile.
I have a Thanatos I can throw up as a leader. He's not max level or anything though. I'll throw him up now while I'm out of STAM, or just let me know when.
I think I may give the master mask one more try, and if I flop again (because of super mask/timer issues/lack of blue orbs) I may try to just power to the light tech dungeon for my mask I need.
Problem is, I have to find a way past the 4th level of the dungeon right before it.

i like how they changed the sapphire dragon color text from teal to blue based on feedback in the puzzle dragon forums. all of the IAP feedback ignored.
two expert mask runs and no drops on final level....lameeeeeeee
rainbow gate keeper run lasted an hour and no rainbow drop. worst start to the day.

I did three of these in a row yesterday before getting my drop. Thankfully I will not have to run that again anytime soon. Because no.
I just received my 5 stones for 30 days, as well. I spent all of them on boxes and felt way better jumping from 75 to 100 slots.
Anyways, I have a few monsters I wanted to focus on evolving. Does anyone have any thoughts on which ones were best to evolve first? I'm thinking the dragons are the best for their resist skills.
Pteras
Echidna
Angel
Tyrannos
Aurora Dragon
Titan
Earth Dragon
Brachio
I mostly run a water team, but I wanted to some non-water monsters.

I want to do the expert mask run, mostly because I need 2 more dark masks to evolve my vampire.
However, I'm pretty sure I'm not in any shape to do it unless I have Xelios' Ammy. I can pretty much have an all blue resolve team with relatively low monsters, but I need a LOT of healing....

Dumb question here. I'm group B. Is it one of those times, or all three of those times?
??? You don't use an amaterasu in a blue resolve team, you use a 5* siren!
all 3. set an alarm.
I figured I'd use an ammy to get me back up to full health every turn when I'm matching orbs..
But regardless, I'm still screwed - I tried it, and on the second stage I got 2 masks with the same timer and forgot that resolve only works against a single attack...
I just got the 3-stone bonus for 10 days, which puts me at 6 total. So now I'm itching to pull that silly lever.
Why do folks think there might be a "god-fest" on the 1st? Wishful thinking?

I just finished the expert mask dungeon easily with this team:
Main Leader: Siren of Enchantress
Subs: Saphilit, Dub-Sapphilit, and 3 Saphire Dragon
Helper: Viper Orochi
It was pretty easy to heal back since I have like 3K HP only or less.
Here is a video of a strategy to use of how you have to move your blue orbs in order to pass this dungeon easily.

You can use an Amu you just gota make sure you match light and blue every turn or you won't kill the mask in 3 turns.

evo'd my Samari Ogre to an Ice Samuri Ogre. Can't tell if that was a good idea or not yet.
Got lucky w/ my PAL pull today : Ice Pendra

You can try doing it with a Shiva set as one of your leaders if available. I do it this way and then load up on high HP monsters to be able to survive some hits.
IF you can survive the first wave, store up some gems, charge up Shiva and the rest becomes easy.
I have someone in my list who has a viper, so I can use my siren as leader and use his viper as second. That would at least help and I'll make sure I focus on taking down a mask if they both have the same timer.
I just need god damn black masks, and otherwise I've been running the dungeon just before the Castle of Satan and they *never* drop. I get all sorts of blue and red drops, and sometimes black carbuncles, but whenever I see a black mask, I never get it. It doesn't help that I don't have a very good white team (I have a Thor and an evolved White Knight, that's it for white) so it makes it a bit longer than I'd like too.

Thanks! Ended up missing the Emerald dragons because I didn't know which time. Turns out it wouldn't have mattered as I didn't realize that's PST until just now. XD First time using the calendar function on my phone, for Puzzle and Dragons. Man are my priorities weird...

Decided to use my 5 stones for a pull today and got a Viper. My water team is slowly getting closer to completeness.
4* Siren
5* Neptune
5* Viper Orochi
What should my other 2 slots go to?

I also have a viper orochi. Just make sure to charge vipers skill in round 1 and build blue orbs on the bottom for double timer masks.
Yes.
Maybe there is a cycle they go through where they hit all the colors and then do the gods. I think they have went through all the colors now.
So I need some leveling guidance.
I've got the basic thing that you use Carbuncles and then Pengdras.
I can't get Pengs yet, so Carbs it is.
Currently, I've been max leveling the Carbs and then feeding like-colored Carbs to the monster I want to level.
Then I saw something yesterday about evolving the Carb. I had a rubyLit handy, so I evolved one of my maxed ones and now I have a Ruby Carb. She maxes out at lvl30, so she's harder to lvl max.
Should I just be using lvl10 Carbs? or lvl30 RubyCarbs?
But because of messing with the Ruby Carb, it's now the highest level monster I have. And it's almost a better healer than my Naga (which is what I am actually trying to level up).
And I discovered yesterday that rubyLits only come out of the Dungeon of Fire (or Thursday Dungeon). And they don't exactly drop frequently. So that doesn't make me want to level up RubyCarbs as feeders.

OK so what am I missing? Or did I get unlucky?
I got to the last level of the master mask, I have the bottom two rows with 2 blue combos ready. (4, 2 orb sections)
3 masks show up. The rainbow on a every turn timer, and the light/dark both with 4 turn. There is no way I could kill both the light and dark in 4 rounds if the main mask is pummeling me every round.

do 2 five combos and pray... or use the viper orochi skill!
As a double failsafe i also use a unevolved blue mystic knight to turn green into blue. Safed my ass a couple of times!

I should probably revise that section of the OP, but:
For the first two tiers of dungeon just feed whatever same-colored monsters drop.
After Tower of Giants, 2* Carbuncles will actually start appearing and dropping. These are what you should be powering up with feeder monsters and eventually feeding to the guys you want to level up.
Yup bad luck, dump that resolve team and get yourself a team with 10k HP and a keeper

Hah. Yeah I will just summon a real team I guess.
My options are fairly (okay, exaggeration, REALLY limited) I am trying for the mask (and then two rainbow glow worms) for my Ammy evolve.
Ah, OK, that is good to know. I will not stress about evolving the little Carbs.
I did just run the easier Room of Mask. I has 11pts to lvl up, so I figured if I last I could easily get my stamina back.
Got a Crimson Mask and Golden Mask for my troubles. Very happy that all the Demon Masks that appeared were on long timers. My water Helper was able to punch through the defense on the two Crimson ones and then Venus punched through the boss dark and light ones.
I suppose those are worth saving? I just added a couple of boxes yesterday, so I've sort of got room.
EDIT: ah, Crimson is used to evolve Naga. That's nice.
Im thinking the best mask team could be 4 Rainbow keepers a HP doubler (Thanatos) and a healer lol, could take months to farm that team though lol

^ what he said. Just wanted to add that when feeding, I never really evo'd a feeder. Just lvled them up high enough and fed to a higher level monster. (only real exception I can think of would be Pendras. Evolve the shit out of those if you can).
There's no issue have a Carbuncle on your team early on, better 'Healer' than Naga (hate that they call her a 'Healer' just because of the high RCV), their skill is useful early on.
Hope that helps!
Haha. Um ... yeah. I couldn't even get 1 rainbow last night! I killed it, but no drop. (On my other account) I love randomness, but in this game it is stupid crazy.
I thought I had seen Naga referred to as the Fire "healer" somewhere, but didn't know what the quotes indicated.
Naga's Menace has actually been very useful so far. I generally use it on most Bosses, as it gives me a little breathing room. But it sounds like it becomes less useful pretty soon, as fights become drawn out slugfests.

Hm, I could do the 4 rainbow keeper team... if I had enough team points!
Someone named TK@GAF tries to add me on their friendlist but he has no open slots left.
Free some up and I will accept!
4 Rainbow Keepers? O_O
It means she doesn't behave like the other healers that restore your hps when you match orbs. Nor does she have a skill that can be charged up to heal.
So, she is a healer in class only.

Ugh man this sucks, I don't really know how to continue with the game at my current level so that I can get Rainbow keepers and rainbow masks. What exactly are resolve teams and other things you guys are talking about? Is there a site to read up on that or somethin?
MMBosstones86

Ability is immensely helpful, it just bothers me that the game calls her a 'Healer' but she doesn't posses a 'Heal' skill.
I'm just bitter because shes the closest thing to a Healer that I have. >:|
what level are you? I'm 50 and havn't even thought about Rainbow Keepers. Got some Rainbow-lits to drop, but thats luck only. Don't find it hampering my evolution yet. Resolve team means using a leader with the resolve skill and keeping the team HP low. That way, when you get 1-shotted, you don't 'die'. I havn't done it, but plenty here have...I'm sure someone can chime in

What's your current team? What's your current rank? Where are you currently at in terms of the "dungeons"?
From there, we'll help direct you.

AFAIK, Healer doesn't actually require a healer skill. The Succubus is a good example. It just means that they have higher RCV than ATK as far as I can really tell. I love my naga (now an echidna) and am working to level her. Just being able to match orbs to do damage is great when farming with an all red team; no red orbs? No problem!
Times are always PST. So 11 = 2pm EST
i think the list was wrong, sapphires were up for me now at 11:17 est. Two rounds and no kings though Xo.
